"Oh, stop! Don't hurt my ash! NO!"
Pain surged through Mary-Lynnette's body as the "Dragon's" as it said, claws ripped her skin. Tears flooded her eyes fast as she screamed and kicked at the thing, oh excuse me, "Dragon". She knew Ash was in trouble, she couldn't do anything about it. She was stuck and there was no one to help her. It clawed at her neck tearing the tissues exposing the wind pipe and esophagus. She wanted it to kill her, she wouldn't live without Ash. She just wouldn't. She had already given up fighting when she heard, Mary, love, get up.
Ash? She thought, pausing mid-kick, to listen and that was all the beast needed. It welled up and went for the kill, about to tear her head off. "Shit!" Mary-Lynnette breathed, and snaked between the Dragon's hind-legs at the last minute.
As fast as she got away from him, she was on his back, grabbing handfuls of fur and pulling while simultaneously screaming, venomously,"You killed him." Grab."You killed MY ASH!" Tear. The beast growled and bucked her off it's back, she landed perfectly, ready to strike again. The dragon turned, lightning fast to face Mary-Lynnette. It was smirking—what could pass for a smirk on the beasts snarling face.
It said something, that sounded like, youishawhstufidhuuuuumain, and charged.
I'm right here, Mary-Lynnette. Right here, wake up. She head in her mind, as if he were still alive. His voice sounded so real, so close. It brought tears to her eyes, but when she thought about what the words meant she was very confused, Wake up?
As she thought this through, the beast got close to her again, but for some reason she sped away at the last minute and ended up by a tree. What? She thought, confused by both thing that were happening. She laughed, "I'm crazy."
The Dragon... beast... thing--WHATEVER!--reared up again, ready to attack but she did it again, not knowing how she did. She kept it up, time and time again, and It followed her around the house, like an idiotic game of slow cat and super-fast mouse. She kept up the game listening...
"Rowan. She won't wake up." She heard Ash say, it confused her, Wake up? The words struck a cord again, "Rowan!"
Finally, she understood, the speed, this dragon thing, hearing Ash... As she made the connection the beast came down on her, she started screaming. Lashing out, trying to find Ash's voice for comfort.
Aw, you care so much. She heard the beast in her mind, almost human like.
"How are you doing this?" She screamed at it, fighting with the razor sharp claws holding her arms down. Her heart was beating fast and there was sweat pouring from her body. She screamed and bashed at it, but the beast threw it's head back and laughed, or gargled.
"Again, I'm a Dragon. I can do whatever the hell I want, little girl."
"Then, why are you attacking me? What am I to you?" She said trying to calm down so she can fight him. I can only get him off by surprise. Keep him talking.
"You, my dear are very important, but you'll see that in the future." He said and bounded back. "That doesn't mean I won't fight you fairly though, child."
Too, bad she isn't coming back from dream land. Especially since when you die in your dreams, there is no coming back.
*******
Ash and the leopard attacked. Jumped back. Attacked. Jumped back. For what seemed like hours for Ash. This thing was relentless.
"I'm a Dragon, Vampire. I can wreck more than this room."
Ash just stared, forgetting that he was supposed to attack. now Dragon?! He thought wildly. Dragons had been asleep for years, decades even. All the witch's put them to sleep! What the--
"Now I got you." The leopard grunted in a discorded tone and jumped on Ash. He made a surprised sound but couldn't do anything, now the beast would get to Mary-Lynnette after doing away with him. It was all over. Goodbye. I love you, Mary-Lynnette.
"Ash. hell no you don't!" He heard a beautiful voice say, the beast jumped in surprised ready to face an attack.
Ash looked at his Mary-Lynnette, His Mary-Lynnette's hair and what little clothes she had on were arrayed from her messy sleeping , she was holding a metal bar and there was fire in her eyes. He took that opportunity to strike the neck of the Dragon. Ash's teeth sank into the grisly fur of the leopard and it shook in anger.
"Get... off... ME!" It gurgled, loudly, and threw Ash across the room.
"ASH!" Mary-Lynnette screamed, and ran to where he went through the wall. pain surged through Ash's body, but they had more important things to worry about.
"I'm okay, Mary-Lynnette. Get the—"
But it was too late. The Dragon was already gone.
*******
"Shit!" Mary-Lynnette cursed, angerly. Ash climbed slowly out of the rubble that was his bathroom wall thanking the house builders they put the toilet on the other side of the bathroom.
"Love," he said, limping over to her. "It's okay. It's not your fault."
She clenching her eyes and fists. Wanting to hit anything, but unable to move. "It is my fault. I'm stupid, I had a weapon, and I didn't do anything. I could have stopped him!" When he didn't say anything she opened her eyes slowly. Meeting calm blue-green ones. Ash grabbed her hands calmly opened her hands up, bringing one up to his face and slowly kissing it without breaking his gaze.
Mary-Lynnette, It's okay. He thought towards her, I'm just glad you're okay, you scared me, I thought he would kill you.
"How was he in my dream and reality anyways?" She asked out loud, hearing her voice shake she switched to thought, too. How did I hear you and in my dream? It all felt so real, I thought I lost you, too. He smiled at her, and she felt the silver cord thrum between them, pulling her into his arms.
Ash must have felt it too because just as she started to fall, he caught her up in his iron grip. Carring the very tired Mary-Lynnette to his messy bed, My love, are you okay?
She laughed, and looked into his now navy and purple, loving eyes and thought, Shouldn't I be asking you that question? You just went through a wall.
I'm okay, Vampires heal fast... She felt that there was an undercurrent to his words, but he was hiding it behind a wall.
Ash, what?
Mary-Lynnette, I'm just happy to have you alive. With that, his lips were on hers. As sweet as can be, tears fell from her eyes. She didn't lose him, but she came so close. Though, he was here, and she was in his solid arms, warm and safe. And he isn't leaving again, she thought protectively while putting her arms around his neck, pulling him closer to her.
She broke the kiss and looked him in the eyes, softening her gaze as she pulled her shirt over her head, she heard him gasp, as his eyes roamed over the exposed skin. She was scared she went too far.
Did Ash Redfern say that he had never seen her look so beautiful before? Now, as Mary-Lynnette's clothes were slowly being lost he felt an overwhelming need that was echoed in her feelings, too. He pulled his shirt over his head, too, and put a shaking hand on her cheek trailing it down her neck, chest and stomach. She shivered in pleasure as her eyes rolled back. The lightning to her heart was shocking but not unbearable. She leaned down and knowing what she wanted, his lips were on hers at vampire speed.
She knew what was going to happen next, but had never done it. All of a sudden she was taken by a shock of scared feelings. What would come next?
As Ash read this thought he broke the kiss rolling over so he was hovering over her, "Mary, We can't..." He trailed off, unsure.
Why was I scared? He was about to totally stop if I wanted to. He loves me, and will stop at anytime. It's okay... She urged herself, feeling the calmness set over her, she said, tugging at his belt buckle, "Yes, we can. I want you."
Hearing it out loud almost made him forget what he was talking about.
Almost.
"This would be just another thing I have to make up for. I was already so horrible, I can't take your... Your innocence." He said, placing an unsteady hand on her cheek, she sigh into it smelling his unmistakable sent.
"It's okay. You're mine forever. It wouldn't matter if you wanted to leave," She said unbuckling his belt and throwing aside, "We're Soulmates. That will never change. I love you." His lips were on hers again as she pushed him and they rolled over, setting her on top. She needed to be in control if they were going to get anywhere, she knew she was ready for this, a whole year of longing and wishing and he was hers now and forever.
"Mary-Lynnette! I almost forgot..." he said rolling them over and got out of the bed.
She had to hold in a growl, "Ash, What?"
"That night..." he started unsure again, "I wanted to give you something." He said laying back down, "I love you, Mary-Lynnette and I'm ready to be with you forever. I know your smarter than to get engaged at this age, but this... This is a promise ring. I promise one day. When your ready I will marry you--if you want to... anyways."
Yes. Was her last thought before pure bliss took over, and thoughts weren't good enough to describe the sensation of every touch and all the fire they were producing as they lost themselves in eachother's love.
Don't you love it? There's no Cliffhanger.... Unless you count, What if it WAS a mistake. as one.(:
By for now.
