She waited but the impact never came. Suddenly her neck whipped to the side giving her a painful whip lash. Two arms had snaked around her waist and pulled her away from the flow of building impact. Bulging her eyes open she whipped her head around to find the creature she loathed more then anything holding her in his arm as he clung to the side of the cliff.

"You are a very stupid human."

His words seethed with anger as he stared into her bulging eyes.

"Do you think I actually want to keep you alive. Well I don't!"

She flinched, shrinking against his arm as he continued to yell at her.

"We find your kind to be nothing but selfish ignorant nobodies who are only good for feeding on. In fact I wish I could kill you right now and end both of our suffering but I won't let you out that easy. You are mine! Do you understand that, I found you first and now Im not just going to let you slip through my fingers!"

Weakly shaking her head she looked behind her downwards towards the ground. They were in a desert again, the sea of sand spread out beneath them looking as infinite as the ocean.

"I will never give up trying to escape." Glaring back at those burning violet eyes she shook her head again.

"Id rather die then spend another moment in this hell with you."

He snarled.

"You've already made that clear."

Leaning forward he covered the distance between their faces bringing them only a breaths width apart.

"Lets make a deal. With every time you try to escape me I will kill someone in your family and bring you their head. Once I've slaughtered everyone in your family I will move on to your friends family and bring you their heads as well. Sound like a deal?"

Gasping in horror she pressed her hands hard against his chest in hopes of causing him pain.

"You fucking maniacal asshole."

A smile spread across his face.

"Don't test me because I will do it."

Quivering with a renewed sense of anger and loathing she brought her hands up to his neck threatening to suffocate him with her hands.

"If you put as much as even a finger on my family I will kill you!"

The raw determination in her voice was strong and she meant every word of it.

"Good. Lets see who can survive this game the longest."

Closing the last inch that seperated them he brought his lips over her own.

The kiss was dry. She didn't respond to the warmth of his mouth against her own, only stared into his open eyes. They watched each other like that for several minutes, her nostrils flaring as they both challenged each other to make the next move.

He then pulled away giving her an expression of triumph.

"Allow me to show you your new home for the time being."

Their bodies were then whisked away in a flash of dark shadow leaving behind no evidence of having ever been there.
