Dell's POV (3rd Person)
"She seems to be over him," Dell said, speaking into an earpiece.
"No, she's faking it. She's loved him for years," the person on the other end stated.
"Well unless she knows how to act like she's in love with someone else, she's over him. She went out on a date today," he explained.
"Just keep following her. I want intel on what she does," the person said.
"Fine," Dell complied, hanging up. He sat in the bushes across the street from where Rin was. He didn't really understand why he was asked to do this. It was one girl, one human girl. What could she do to destroy their way of life? It wasn't like she was the Light or anything, at least not as far as Dell knew. Even if she was, their "king" handled her every time she showed up. He never trusted his underlings to handle it. Maybe he should ask someone, a witch maybe, to look into it.
Dell shook his head. He had to stay focused. He didn't like the look of her new boyfriend. He seemed too familiar, and not just from the people Neru went to school with. He had been the one to scope out the school before she got stationed there. Crunch, crunch, crunch, he heard footsteps approaching and shrunk down lower into the bushes. It was just Len, passing by on his way to somewhere. He didn't even pause to glance at her house this time. He was too lost in thought. Dell sighed in relief and muttered, "I'm sorry, Prince." Len was the real ruler, or at least he should have been. He had lost his memory before he ever got to take the throne. Dell was a supporter of the true royal family, but couldn't do anything. The imposter had his sister locked up and threatened to hurt or kill her if Dell didn't follow his rules to the letter.
As Dell was lost in thought about his prince and sister, someone snuck up on him. Dell started about to defend himself, but felt the cool tip of a newly sharpened wood stake up against the back of his throat.
"What do you want hunter?" he snarled.
"What do you want with my girlfriend?" a familiar voice asked.
Dell groaned. The only reason he recognized the voice was because he had heard it all day. "I'm just following orders."
"Uh-huh," Kaito scoffed still lowering the stake, allowing Dell to turn. "I'll believe you only because she's not hurt. If that changes I'll hunt down you and your whole coven."
"When'd the hunters go so soft?" Dell taunted. He was really pushing his luck, but thinking about his sister always got him like this, on edge and longing for a fight.
"They didn't. I'm not a hunter, not anymore. Some of you aren't so bad, and the hunters in control didn't have any discretion. So, I quit," Kaito said. He wasn't really up for it anyway. He was far too easy going.
"Of course, I get caught by a retired hunter. I have the worst of luck," Dell complained.
Kaito flipped the stake back up to Dell's neck. "Keep talking and I might just kill you out of annoyance," he threatened. It was an empty threat; he wouldn't risk getting found, by the hunters or the vampires. His earlier one, however, was not empty. He refused to let someone he cared for get hurt, especially on his watch. "Just keep her safe, and I'll keep you off their radar."
"Fine, but you'll owe me one, too," Dell bargained.
"Fine," Kaito agreed. They shook hands.
Dell went back to watching the girl. Determined to go talk to a witch the next night and figure out what it was about this girl that could make so many want to protect her. Not even he himself was immune. He found her intriguing. She was strong, much stronger than was expected of a human. She was keeping up with what was happening supernaturally around her, and even managed to keep from drowning in her boy issues, most of which were caused by the supernatural. It's hard not to admire her, he thought.
AN: I know that I'm jumping between a lot of point of views, and I apologize for that. It wasn't originally my intention, but it kind of happened. This story seems to have a mind of its own. I really hope you don't mind, it's just the easiest way of moving the story forward. Also, I would like to thank all of my followers, favorites, reviewers, and readers.
