A/N: SORRY FOR THE EXTREMELY LONG DELAY IN UPDATING. WORK AND LIFE HAS A WAY OF CUTTING MY CREATIVE JUICES, BUT I RECENTLY FOUND SOME NEW INSPIRATIONS, SO WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY, CHAPTER 10.

Chapter 10

Arizona entered the bar, scanning for any signs of the Latina or Joanne. Inhaling deeply, she knew she had arrived early. Calliope's scent was no where to be found a but a sudden thirst came over Arizona as she smelled the familar scent of virgin blood. Looking at the young girl sitting at the end of the bar, she sniffed once more and tried to control her urge to consume her. The blonde hair girl smiled at Arizona, her blue eyes sparkling in the glow of the lights. Sitting next to her though was Joanne, smiling and flirting with the young girl. Arizona made her way over to the pair, and sat on the other of the girl. Joanne grinned and started to speak.

"So this is my sister Arizona, the one I told you about. She has been in town a while and is feeling a bit lonely, I think you could help her with that. Arizona, this is Melissa."

The girl interrupted Joanne, "But you can call me Mel. Your really hot. I thought your sister was exaggerating but she was dead on." The young girl laughed trying to cover up her obvious nervousness.

"Joanne may I speak with you a moment?" Arizona grabbed Joanne and drug her to the bathroom.

"What the fuck Jo? Why can't you just leave. I know your up to something so just tell me and be gone already."

Joanne chuckled to herself and pushed Arizona against the sink, leaning in and licking her neck she softly spoke, "Ari, I know its been a long time since you drank a virgin's blood. Now I found Mel outside hovering about, waiting for someone to get her in. You know you can't resist the hot, pure taste of her. Plus, when you see Calliope you'll have a hard time trying to control yourself. Take Mel and fill up. I'm only trying to help you."

Arizona groaned as she felt Joanne rub her palms against her breasts. Damned this woman, she thought. Arizona knew that she was overdue for a feeding and that with the current level of frustration running through her that she would have a hard time with Calliope if she saw her. Pushing Joanne backwards Arizona stalked toward the bar in search of her prey.

After a few minutes Arizona convinced Mel to head out to the parking lot. Mel was more then eager after the brief conversation with Arizona.

"So Mel, Joanne said you were interested in some friendly hooking up? I think your so beautiful and Jo is right its been too long since I had the pleasure of a young lady." Arizona began to lick and nip at Mel's neck causing her to moan, and Arizona knew that she had her. They began slowly exploring each other's lips, but Mel became more forceful, seeking entrance into Arizona's hot mouth. She dueled for dominance, Arizona knowing all the while that she was just luring the young thing to her eventual demise. Stroking Mel through her shirt, Arizona lightly ran her nails along the soft flesh of Mel's abdomen. Soon each were entering each other, bringing their impending orgasms to the surface.

Arizona could feel the walls of Mel tightening and knew that soon, Mel would crash into eternal bliss. As Mel reached her climax, Arizona sank her fangs into her neck, feeling the hot liquid run down her throat, and she too bubbled over feeling the youth course through her body.

Arizona didn't even notice Callie and Joanne entering the same alley at first, until she drained Mel completely and finally took a deep breath. Immediately she knew that Callie was in danger and stepped out from the shadows, dropping the young girl to the ground, discarded and drained of her blood.

As Callie walked through the doors of the bar, she felt a little nervous about tonight. She knew that her feelings for Arizona were as strong as ever but she needed some sort of distraction from the woman that haunted her every dream. Then she caught sight of Joanne sitting across the bar, chatting up with some short woman.

Callie stared at Joanne across the bar, a dark bottle of beer in her hand. Joanne smiled at her and felt the thirst when she smiled back. Joanne excused herself from her current conversation with a woman named Crystal who was a chef, and quite intersting but she wasn't on the menu tonight. Hell Yeah she thought as she slid off the stool and sauntered over to her.

Her long hair was even darker then sJoanne first thought. Black like the darkness, it covered her bare back, exposed from the halter dress she wore. Her olive skin caused her to give off an beautiful glow. Joanne had no idea what Arizona was thinking by not turning this creature. Callie's unique scent was delicious and Joanne couldn't wait to sink her fangs into her.

"Hey," Joanne shouted over the music. Callie's hands were sweaty from the heat and her nerves, so she smiled and ordered a drink. As the bartended handed her the drink, she took a long sip and set her drink down on the bar top. She normally wouldn't be so nervous, she knew she was a looker. Thick jet-black hair, dark chocolate brown eyes, and a pretty good physique; Callie was simply beautiful woman, to most.

"Hey," her soft voice replied. Staring at Joanne, her eyes were just as pale as the rest of her, a soft green glow that looked almost inhuman. She was definitely an odd character. "How's it going?"

Callie sat down on the stool next to her. "Just great. You look amazing Callie," and she pulled Callie's hand up to her mouth placing a lingering kiss. Callie pulled it back and gave it a soft squeeze, causing Joanne to raise an eyebrow.

"Well, Joanne, what brings you to Seattle other then visiting Dr. Percy?" Callie leaned an elbow on the bar, looking at her profile.

"My umm sister also lives here, although we aren't on the best of terms right now."

Callie smiled. "Oh, that isn't good, is it?"

She nodded and smiled slyly at her. "No. Just moved here two days ago. Decided to try and make amends with her. She is mad at me for things from long ago. So I'm trying to get settled here."

"You'll like it here. It's got a great night life," Callie laughed. Joanne smiled at her, her eyes almost hypnotizing Callie.

Callie thought about how much she just needed to get Arizona off her mind and what could be better then a beautiful woman to distract her. Callie straightened up and grabbed her hand. "Want to get out of here?"

Joanne's grin widened. "Sure."

A few seconds later, the two stumbled out into an alley. Callie's hands were roaming up and down Joanne's body, squeezing her waist, tickling her side. Joanne's hands were wrapped around Callie's neck, pulling her closer for their kiss.

They parted for a breather, Callie's face lit up with a smile. Joanne began nuzzling her neck. Callie felt her warm tongue lick the side of her neck and her smile widened.

"So, where's this hot night life at?" Joanne purred. Her head was bent to the side, her mouth still hovering about Callie's neck.

"Right here," Callie said softly. As Joanne opened her mouth wide and went to sink two sharp fangs into Callie's flesh, she was knocked back into the wall. Suddenly Arizona appeared and stood in front of Callie. Grabbing Callie. Callie struggled against her strong arms, but they were now wrapped around her body. A soft sound, like something a wounded animal would make, escaped through the woman's mouth. That didn't stop Arizona though, as she continued to drag Callie away from the alley. Joanne then jumped up and grabbed a hold of Arizona, punching her in the face, effecting releasing Callie. Callie fell to the ground and watched the two women. Arizona was covered with blood, and a bright blue glow in her eyes.

"Arizona, my dear I should have known you'd be here. Why don't you just do it already, she is totally worth it." Joanne smiled as she paced.

"Listen Bitch, Calliope is not a play toy, she is not going to be part of this life. I can and will protect her from you, Joanne. She is special and has no idea about us." Arizona growled

"Vampires in love with humans, makes things so much more difficult," Joanne mused to herself. "Baby, YOU don't have any idea do you? She is special, more special then you realized. Carlos didn't tell you the full story in Miami did he?"

Callie was stunned to here the women talking about her and her father. Why did Joanne know her father? When did Arizona talk to her dad? She was throughly confused and hurt that Arizona never said anything.

"Carlos told me that she couldn't live if bitten by one of us, due to him being a Lycan. That was all I needed to hear." Arizona could feel Callie's eyes on her and wished this wasn't how she learned of her families heritage.

Joanne laughed deeply and relaxed her stance. Looking at Callie she decided that it was more fun to let Arizona take the heat for this revelation.

The sudden roar of a motorcycle caused Callie's body to stiffen. The single headlight swung on to her and Joanne turned quickly, facing it head on. A quick wink to Arizona and Joanne was gone leaving Callie and Arizona alone in the alley. Arizona relaxed and walked over to a still stunned Callie.

"Calliope, there is so many things I need to tell you, please give me a chance to explain everything." Arizona said as she bent down to help Callie stand.

Callie really had no idea what was going on, but she knew that there was a deep desire running through her with Arizona so close to her. She tried so hard to ignore that fact that her body wanted Arizona, and now all the questions she needed answers to were going to be answered.
