December 1854 London, England
POV: Ariella
We have moved many times since Lucas joined us when we were discussing where to move to I was drawn to England, London to be precise I didn't have the slightest clue as to why at the time, but as of today I realized the truth behind the feeling as I was pulled into a vision during one of the councils usual meetings.
I was seeing a woman early 30's giving birth. I was in a fairly wealthy family's house judging by their possessions. I turned towards the birth to find no other than Myra in all her glory as stunning as ever delivering a healthy baby girl. "Eva listen I need you to count to three and then push as hard as you can okay?" asked Myra the woman-Eva I'm assuming- could only nod then counted to three then grunting as you heard crying the next second. I turned towards Myra to find her holding a beautiful baby. She had tuffs of black and cute little blue eyes as she gave another piercing wail. And most surprising was that this gorgeous little baby was glowing red, she was emitting a ruby light that managed to make her look even more beautiful than she already was. This vision was going to happen in 2 months time.
Once again I was seeing the meeting room and all eyes were on me. "Yes can I help you guys with something?" I asked. "Well yes actually you could tell us what your vision was about." Answered Lucas in his smart ass way. "Lemeul looks like you get to be a mentor soon." I said. I was kinda excited another new person yay! But it also could be a result of all the sugar I have had in my tea lately. "Wait so the next werewolf rep will be joining us soon?" asked Lucas. "Eh not exactly you see my visions work in a certain way pertaining to these things I see the reps birth, I see the reps changing or learning of their way, then I see when their joining." I told him. "Really then how come you didn't see me changing?" He asked. Oh crap did Lilabeth not tell him about that part well here goes nothing. "I did see your birth that's how I knew about you and where you were, and I also saw your changing occur about two days before it happened." I stated a little bit afraid of his reaction. "WHAT! You mean you could have stopped me from being bitten, but instead you decided to let it happen and to let that demon to ruin my life and take away my humanity." He was seething anyone can tell you that and he had a good reason, but all his reasons were based on false facts. " . .me. First of all I couldn't have stopped what happened you were destined to be a rep and if I interfered with that there would be major consequences. Secondly I didn't let it happen I wasn't supposed to do anything it never was up to me. And thirdly if you think that vampire took your humanity away then you are sadly mistaken what makes us human is our ability to have feelings and to be able to care for others you still have that don't you so don't give me that bull crap." I yelled and I pushed past him and walked out of the building.
1872 London, England
POV: Ariella
I was having over all of my friends and their husbands over for dinner that night. However since my friends are kind of judgemental I had to pretend to have a fiancee and even more unfortunate is that the only qualifiable bachelor happened to be Lucas. I had an hour before my friends get here and Lucas had just arrived and to my utter surprise he even brought flowers and apologized for the way he acted towards me. I accepted it quickly for I did not like fighting with Lucas he was like a brother/best friend to me. We have been through much together over the past thousand or so years. He is really a great guy I just wish he could find a great girl to go with him. Once all of my friends arrived we all sat in the parlor and chatted about our week. It was entirely too boring for my taste, but these were the only friends I had outside of the council and to me that was important. Lucas I have a feeling sensed that I was absolutely bored asked everyone if they were ready for dinner they all took their places at the table as I made my way into the kitchen to get the food I was about to walk out into the dinning room with the beef when my hand landed on the stove and I let out a whimper. I heard Lucas excuse himself as he came in to see why I had whimpered considering it takes a lot to hurt a vampire he saw my red hand and kissed it. Still holding onto my hand he looked me in the eye. I couldn't move I didn't want to move we just stood there for awhile completely forgetting our guests in the other room. Then all too slowly he lowered his head to where our lips were almost touching I wanted to close the distance between us so badly, but knew that if that's not what he intended to do it could ruin us forever. So I waited an agonizingly long while he looked me in the asking me if it was okay to go on I couldn't move I was in shock and amazement at the same time. Then without warning his lips came cashing down on mine, but the kiss was soft and gentle. His lips were smooth and cold of a vampire, he tasted like peppermints. I knew we should stop that this wasn't right but the kiss became more about desire, the need to feel close to someone and to feel special. I pulled back only to see his onyx eyes clouded with lust and it took all I had in me to take a step back and remind him that we had guests. I had just shut the door behind my last friend when Lucas pushed me up the door and kissed me hard on the mouth and I responded just as eagerly. He pushed me farther up the door while continuing to kiss me. I wrapped my legs around his waist and let him carry me to my room all the while keeping his lips attached to mine. Once we got into the bedroom he laid me down on the bed while kissing my jaw and traveling slowly down my neck, nipping at my throat which in turn made me gasp.
Same night
POV: Lucas
What was I thinking I just had sex with my best friend who was currently asleep on my shoulder she looked like an angel when she was asleep. I knew we should have stopped, but it had been so long since I was that close to someone I couldn't take it anymore and I gave in Ariella and I have a lot to talk about when she wakes up I really don't want this to ruin our friendship. Her kiss was amazing her warm soft lips against mine she tasted of fresh strawberries and- no bad Lucas she is your best friend. There was movement she was waking up. She opened her eyes and took in her surroundings including what she was wearing or I should say lack of. Then her eyes landed on me and it was clear she was remembering what happened last night. "Oh Gosh. What did we do?" she asked almost terrified. "I guess we got a little carried away, but don't worry it won't happen again friends forever remember." She smiled up at me. "Of course and thank you no matter how weird this sounds I needed that it's been along time since I've felt special." She said and now it was my turn to be stunned I looked at her she was extremely special anyone could tell her that I can't believe that she can't see that. "Don't worry I know exactly how you feel in an odd way I feel the same." I got out of bed turned away as I was pulling on my pants I asked her "So shall we get dressed and go meet the others?" but I got no response so I turned around to see her zoned out starring at the wall meaning she was having a vision.
POV: Ariella
"So shall we get dressed and go meet the others?" he asked while pulling up his pants, but I didn't get a chance to respond before I was sucked into a vision. I saw a gorgeous girl around the age of 17 walking down an alley way as a shortcut to get home. There was a rustling coming from behind her. She looked back cautiously and when she saw nothing she visibly relaxed however, did not slow her pace. She was almost out of the alley when she was knocked to the ground by what felt like a wall. Something cut into her back as she screamed she was crying and begging for mercy at this point when suddenly the weight was not there anymore. She quickly got up and ran home. She bathed herself and looked in the mirror to find a large bite mark on her lower-left hip. I figured this must be Lupe.
2 day time skip
Lupe was coming into her powers now. Everything she was hearing was being enhanced along with her eyesight, coordination, and her reflexes. Her eyes turn yellow when she gets too angry or lustful and her canines grow. Although the full moon hadn't hit I felt fairly sure I knew exactly what was going to happen when it did.
End of vision
I know I have nothing to worry about this was scheduled to happen in 6 days and then she will find our homes about 2 weeks after with no complications. Finally when I came back to reality I realized Lucas was trying to get my attention. "What? Oh sorry I just saw Lupe she is going to be changed in 6 days. Then she will join us two weeks later. I'm so excited I can barely sit still."
