CHARA ATE MY SOUL

VampireSiren

Please enjoy!

The moon was her sun...

The night was her day...

Her blood is their life...

But they are her prey...

"She loves me~"

"She loves me not…"

"She loves me~"

"She loves me not…"

"She love me~"

"…she…loves me not….." I watched him say as he was only left with the last petal of the blood red rose. His mood darkened. "So…she doesn't love me…"

His fist tightened around what was left of the flower, crushing it. A multitude of torn rose petals were scattered across the triplets bedroom floor telling me he had been in here for a while now.

I continued to watch him as he continued to mutter to himself. Laito was the oldest of the triplets by demon law despite the little fantasy world I let Cordelia think she had control over.

Despite me pushing Ayato into cracking his seal…I was glad to know I wouldn't have to do that with Laito. He was maturing faster than his other brother's physically, mentally and demonically.

He would be more inclined and more susceptible to his demonic nature, my eyes flickered around his room as the boy was lost in his thoughts. The shadows began to manifest and just by looking at how his shadows reacted I could tell something dark and heavy weighted on his mind.

I narrowed my eyes my lip curling to show a flash of my fangs and apparently…it was a girl. I took a deep breath steeling my nerves and I walked over to him my arms encircling his body, my lips pressing a kiss to his cheek.

He stiffened before inhaling my scent, but his body di not relax as it usually did. Instead the smell of saltwater filled the air.

"Michiko-chan…" He whimpered.

Come stop your crying It will be alright…

Just take my hand and hold it tight…

I let the sound of my voice bounce off the walls of the room, as I held him against me. His demonic energy was lashing around us.

I will protect you from all around you…

I will be here, don't you cry…

I watched my very heart filling as if one was turning it with a silver dagger as his silently crying grew to violent sobs. I tightened my hold on him my eyes widening when I caught sight of a patch a scale flickering in and out like a candle trying to spread across his cheek like freckles and his nails lengthening to claws.

Laito however wasn't witnessing his very own transformation…

For one so small, you seem so strong…

My arms will hold you, keep you safe and warm

This bond between us can't be broken

I will be here don't you cry

I began to loosen my hold as I noticed the scales and his claws disappear. But I didn't stop singing.

'Cause you'll be in my heart… yes, you'll be in my heart

From this day on now and forever more…

You'll be in my heart, no matter what they say…

You'll be here in my heart…

Always…

I finished before humming the tone as I continued to rock him close to me until finally he was calm enough to talk to me.

"Michiko-chan…" He whispered so softly that I had to strain my ears.

"Hm?" I was counting in my head, trying to control my rage for boiling over and making him tell me what or who had hurt him so much…I'd kill them...but only after I'd reach down their throat and pulled their insides...

"What…what is a demons love?" He asked me quietly.

"What is a demons love?" I mused out loud and he nodded looking up at me.

"Hm. A demons love for me is a bit complex to explain, but I will try just for you." I said to him and he smiled. "Love…it's a strong word, but easy to spell. Difficult to define but also impossible to live without."

"A demons love is an untamed force, a connection between hearts, yours and mine." I said as I scooped him up into my arms as I moved towards him side of the ride sliding onto his bed.

"A demons love is patient, and always protects, it trusts, and always perseveres when it's real. And most of all it never fails." I said nodding to myself. Not to be confused with a humans notion of love. First understand that humans as they are, are flawed creatures. Bred to breed again before dying but a selective few are lucky to be our prey. Humans love you will see the most once you begin to integrate your self among them, they fall in love quickly and out of love just as fast."

"Why? Why does their love not preserve?" He asked curiously.

"Because my love, they are mortal and we are the superior beings...we are immortal. Their feelings are as constant as the moon and twice as fickle. Humans were physically and weak minded, fickle creatures that is what also easily makes they our prey. Because they have an expiration date they didn't understand the concept with long term relationships...they simply can't. a human could never give the same love as a demon could...a demons love is forever."

He frowned. "Then what is an example of love?"

"When someone else's happiness is your happiness…that is love." He held onto me as I ran my fingers though his hair, it was getting longer although Laito didn't seem to mind it.

"Love is when a person knows all of your secrets…your deepest, darkest most dreadful secrets of which no one else in the world knows…and yet in the end that person does not think any less of you even if the rest of the world does…" I said and placed a kiss on his head.

"Love sounds like you Michiko-chan."

I chuckled. "Yes, that might be because I love you."

He tilted his head up his eyes staring into my own. "You love me…"

"Yes I love you, and I will always love you. After all there is only one you. Only one Laito Sakamaki in the entire universe...and he belongs to me, his Michiko-chan." I said cuddling him and making him chuckle.

"You my darling Laito are infinitely worthy and unconditionally loved." I said and his cheeks grew darker. "And any girl that dares to think otherwise will soon find herself into the deepest depths of Tartarus right after I rip her heart from her rib cage and shove it down her throat." I said with an innocent smile although my eyes were not the least bit playful.

"Michiko-chan…you would actually hurt someone because of me?" he asked innocently and my eyes flashed demonically making him shiver.

"I would set the world on fire burning alive every man woman and child for you, and your brothers…" My voice was cold before my eyes brightened and my voice began as the sweetest honey...I didn't need to freak him out anymore.

"But that's only because I love you guys so much, that I wouldn't ever want anyone or anything to hurt your...least they wish to face my wrath...and there not a person I know who's dumb enough to try and provoke my wrathful side...lest not one that's still alive" I said with a light chuckle. Except for your father...and even he knows that his days are numbered if he pisses me off too badly...

"Then a demons love…is a powerful thing." He said thoughtfully.

"A demons love is a dangerous thing…" I said with a serious look before my face lightened. "Why all these questions darling?"

He flushed. "I just…no reason-"

"Oh, you wouldn't be lying to me…" I said with a smirk.

His face flushed. "Love is honest, I do not wish to lie to you…but I also do not wish to tell you right now. I'm sorry please do not be mad."

I chuckled. "That's fine darling, I won't pressure you into divulging…but I do want you to be comfortable coming to me about anything at all that bothers you…or even if you just want to talk. I want you to know that I'll always be here."

He clung and curled into me, his head placed directly over my heart; I hummed to him and he fell into a gentle sleep listening to the rhythm of it beat.

~~~Guilty Pleasures~~~

"I really do hope you have a good reason for summoning me here." I scowled as I appeared before the male.

"I do." He said just as tensely.

"And the reason is?"

"I have a patient I need to tend too."

I stared at him as he continued gathering his items. "Tell me you're joking…"

"I'm not and since I do not have her highness' permission to leave the property ground with her presence that means you get the pleasure of coming along."

I scowled. "Just cancel your stupid appointment."

I blinked raising an eyebrow when Yukio shot me quite a nasty glare.

"I will not. You will come along and you will behave yourself."

I crossed my arms. "Well I didn't ask to tag along."

He once more seemed to have gathered the backbone to cut his eyes into me. "I am not asking you."

I blinked staring at him before a smirk stretched across my lips. I stalked towards him I leaned in close my lips less than inches from. "Hmm…then what perhaps…are you saying…"

"You know damn well what I'm saying, you are not a fool."

I laughed, it was deep, and hinted of danger my fangs were clearly on display. "You are a stubborn human…why do you not just say the words? Have I not taught you how to coax me into doing the things that you want?"

"Because you are a sadistic demon…and I don't feel like feeding your sadism." He said coolly before turning and walking away from me and my laughter bubbled over.

~~~...~~~

I followed beside him, riding quietly in the carriage as we rode into town. I said nothing at all when we stopped and obediently followed when he said he needed to pick up a few things.

I raised an eyebrow however when he stopped me from entering the medial facility.

"Is there a problem? I distinctly recall you telling me to follow you."

"Yes, but you can't enter with me here."

I looked at the store before looking back at him. "Is that so…and what would you have me do. Wait here like a good little guard dog?"

"I don't care what you do while I'm in here." My eyes glinted and Yukio saw it. "But you can't under any circumstances kill anyone…"

"Sure." I said with a smirk.

"And you can't make anyone else do it either, just don't terrorize anyone." He said.

At that my smile wavered, my eyes narrowed. "Anything else?"

"For once can you not cause any mischief when I turn my back?" He asked exasperated.

I grimaced. "If that is what you wish."

Yukio stared at me for a moment more before nodding and disappearing into the store.

I glared after his retreating figure my eyes darkening as I thought of all the ways I could kill him before I blinked turned and walked down the street looking for something to entertain myself.

I came across my entertainment soon enough in the form of a child.

I watched for a moment entertained by the fact that the child had the obstinacy to actually try to steal from the man…in front of his face.

I rolled my eyes as the vendor had finally reached his wits end grabbing the boy and threating to end his life. The boy cried out for his friend who seemed to abandon him.

I was going to walk away, but the smell of something so tantalizing drew me to stare at the boy once more. His scent was covered in filth and I could tell he spent most of his time in the sewers…ah but his soul….

I had taken steps towards them placing my gloved hand over the one that head the child to him gathering the vendor's attentions.

"Is there a problem sir?" I asked softly.

The man narrowed his eyes but didn't speak.

"This child has stolen from you correct?" I continued like he was actually returning the conversation.

"Aye…"

"Then please release him to me." I said seriously.

The man narrowed his eyes and was about to speck when I placed a small bag of gold coins in front of him.

"This is what you want right?" I said motioning towards the money. "Go ahead take it…and in return you will give this child to me and turn the other cheek to his thievery."

The man's eyes never left the small bag of gold and I took that time to look at the boy who stared at me.

My eyes twitched and I looked away from the boy to shot the man a glare as he repeated the terms money and gold and riches over and over.

"I'm satisfied…I'll never have to work again…" The man said to himself as he continued to stare at the small bag of gold seemingly bewitched…and perhaps he was.

I sneered even as I begrudgingly bared witness to his soul. "What a fool. Greed does not rest until it is satisfied…and greed is never satisfied."

I motioned towards the vendor's food when the man disappeared with the gold. "Go ahead and get whatever you wish, he won't bother you again."

I smirked already imagining the outcome of the man's pathetic fate. "Greed eaters dig their graves…with their teeth."

When the boy stayed rooted at the spot I sighed. I picked up a basket before filling it with several fruits and pieces of bread.

I walked a few feet before looking back to see if the kid follow…he did.

This continued until we were in a more secluded part of town. I turned for the last time placing the basket of food on the ground before moving to a to lean on and watch his next move.

He went to the basket, lifting the fruit and taking several hungry filled bites as I analyzed him. I blinked surprised when he held out an apple to me almost shyly.

I stared at him. "I have no need for human food."

He blinked up at me before nodding and continued to eat and I wandered if he even understand what I even said.

My eyes rolled over him. For a human child he had a rather, beautiful face. He had blonde hair with his bangs covering the top right side of his face and lovely blue eyes that seemed to reflect the sky.

He reminded me of Shu for a bit, I watched him watch me from under his long eye lashes.

"What is your name?" It would have been pointless to ask why he was stealing, I could tell by looking at his thin figure he hadn't eaten in a while and I wouldn't ask why his parents were not with him. The child seemed to reek of abandonment…

"Kou…" He said after a moment. He looked up at me a blush making its way toward his cheeks and my nostrils flared. "Thank you for saving me Miss."

I cracked a small smile and he noticed. That seemed to open the floodgates for his entire life story.

Saccharine I thought and I felt my tongue roll over my lips. His soul is saccharine…how wonderfully brilliant.

I stiffened thrown out of my thoughts of devouring this young boys soul when I felt him. He was ready to go.

I tched. Narrowing my eyes in his general direction before looking at Kou who had noticed my mood change.

"Michiko-sama?"

"It seems I have to take my leave Kou-kun."

"Oh." He said his mood deflating I patted his head as I walked by him making him look up at me as I stared off in the distance.

"This loneliness is only temporary…we will meet again. So until we meet you must not give up and you mustn't die." I said softly before walking away.

Leaving him to stare after me with a determined expression and happiness in his gaze.

"You didn't cause any trouble did you?" Yukio asked eyeing me when I once more sat in the carriage alongside him.

I gave him a fanged smile. "Of course not, you strictly told me not to cause any trouble remember…"

He narrowed his eyes after as if he doubted my words before sighing and sighing as if he didn't care what I did.

~~~...~~~

Ivy and ferns grew through the crevices of the old winding stone path, which led directly to the colossal structure. The mansion loomed proudly behind creaky iron gates, flanked by rows of skeletal trees, swaying gently to the wind. At its threshold stood the delicate marble fountain, the soft gurgling of the clear water melodic as it resonated in the surrounding silence.

I stood by his side as a servant walked to us. My nose twitching at the smell of fresh blood on him.

I watched the servant he seemed to be almost limping and I briefly wondered what had happened to him.

I walked through the hallway bored out of my mind until we reached the middle of the manor where the lord and lady of the house were waiting but it wasn't long before I lost interest and wondered off on my own.

"I'm sorry Ruki-sama!" ah it was the servant that had brought us into the mansion. I watched the scene intrigued as he bowed before a dark hair child, he stood above him with an emotionless face.

"Don't apologize. Only state the blunder you committed." The child said coolly and I smirked, I liked this kid already.

"I-I broke that model that my master so cherishes from carelessness." My eyes moved to the broken glass and model of a ship that was also broken before my eyes moved back towards the duo but not before noticing the other servants farer away also staring at the duo…no staring at the servant, with pity.

"You have a hard time understanding don't you?" The boy named Ruki said and for a moment his head tilted down his bangs covered his eyes.

The servant seemed to shake in fear of the tiny human. I stared at the boy waiting for what he would do next.

"When committing a blunder as such don't you think that a human, in a low position as yours, would be sentenced to death immediately?" The boy said darkly and my eyes widened at the pure bloodlust that seemed to be released from his pores.

"Yet why are you still kept alive?" He asked a smile making its way towards his lips as he stared at the servant who looked to almost be vibrating with fear.

My eyes grew hazy as the young boy pulled out a whip and stuck the servant making the older male cry out in pain. I bit my lips as the scent of fresh blood littered the air, the boy had a firm hand…

I could feel my fangs as the young boys voice darkened. "This isn't a bad sight…kneel down to me more." He continued to whip him while letting a cute boyish laughter.

This boy…this child…he was a dominant…a natural born alpha I crossed my arms over my chest as my body trembled with excitement.

"Without me none of you would have anything to eat or a place to sleep. Your lives are just the same as livestock!" I could feel the heat rush to my cheeks at his declaration.

What a piquant and saporous soul that I had come across. His superiority complex and abandonment issues mixed with his unshakeable pride...how yummy.

Young and damaged aristocratic souls were always the most savory…

"You are truly a demon, why don't you stop him." Yukio growled into my ear as I continue to do nothing but watch the younger.

"But why, who am I to get in the way of a sweet and innocent child having a bit of fun?" I said innocently.

"Innocent?! He is acting like a savage little monster!"

"Hmmm then perhaps I should take him home with me to play with the other little monsters I possess." I said thoughtfully.

He narrowed his eyes "No, you will do no such thing."

"Why not? Were you no so long ago wanting to take in a helpless human child?" I said making him flinch.

"That was different, that child was alone."

"I see no difference behind the child of your interest and the child of mine. They are both alone…"

"He has a family a home and everything else that he could possibly want, there no need for him to be affiliated with you." Yukio bit out.

I looked over at him a smirk making its way to my lips. "But for how much longer…a few months…weeks…"

"What do you mean?"

"My ears and nose work just fine Yukio. I heard the discussion…how can will he survive his sickness if he cannot provide you with proper payment. It will kill if you know."

"I checked his vitals the man is as healthy as an ox. How can you be sure that he is sick?"

"Because I am a superior being my eyes can see what you cannot. That man is dying…it is only a matter of time."

"Your wrong, I'm going to save him, I'm going to save everyone...even if it kills me." Yukio looked between the rooms before heading back into the room with lord.

I smirked. "What a self righteous martyr...he's such a fool…"

~~~...~~~

I walked into the room with the misses considering she was making tea.

The woman was nothing more than a basic woman. She was boring…I debated whether or not she was worth letting to live…

"Mother…"

"Ruki." I watched her reactions, my face was blank. He looked at him the way Cordelia looked at Beatrix.

He was worthless to her…and ultimately expandable. I rested the urge to smirk.

"This is Lady Michiko, be sure to give her your respect."

The boy stared at me and I returned his stare, my gaze unwavering.

I mentally cooed, what defiant and stormy blue-grey eyes. I briefly entertained the thought of breaking him…I was sure he would prove to be an intriguing conquest.

He looked away a blush staining his cheeks while I a smirked at his defeat.

I felt him watching me for the rest of my stay. His eyes were scorching, leaving trails of fire wherever the gazed and I once again entertained the thought of breaking him.

I toyed with the idea of an older version of him, staring at me with such scorching eyes and I felt a rush of heat to my face.

I chuckled to myself when I heard the boy softly mutter 'cute'. I left that pitiful excuse of a human when I couldn't take any more of her incessant chatter.

I wondered around aimlessly until I came across a familiar scent. I licked my lips before following my nose to a library.

"Mind if I join you?" I asked him after watching him for a while piece together a puzzle.

He stared at me for a moment before looking away that blush staining his cheeks. "Do as you wish."

I smirked before choosing to sit across from him.

"What an interesting picture this puzzle will make." I said honestly as I stared at the pieces that were in disarray.

"Have you done this puzzle before?"

"Not at all."

"Then how could you possibly know the outcome of the picture."

I smiled "I'm rather gifted at seeing things that most people don't see."

He stared at me, obviously my answer wasn't good enough.

"I have taken your pieces that you have finished and looked at the pieces that are left, rather simple reasoning right."

He looked down his eyes looking over what he had done and the pieces that were left, his eyes narrowed studying the pieces and after a few moments he looked back at me with curious eyes. "You're rather perceptive…for a woman."

I smiled and chose not to answer, instead moving a few of the harder pieces into positions that would be easier for his young eyes to pick up and connect.

"How long have you and Mr. Komori been married?"

I blinked my face scrunching up in distaste. "Never."

Ruki looked up confused. "You are not married to Mr. Komori?"

"No I am not, I am not married to anyone, why do you ask such a question."

"He has spoken of you before, and even today he speaks of you in such of the same regard my father does my mother. It seems as if he was your husband."

I smiled. "Mr. Komori and I have a multifarious engagement to each other but we not tied together by the bonds of marriage."

He frowned. "But there is a string of fate that connects you both. I can tell that much but just how he looks at you. Almost like a moth to a flame, drawn to you, yet even knowing that the end will only be pain before ultimately death."

I stared at the child before chuckling. "You are rather perceptive…for a child…what a rather disgustingly destructive relationship you have conjured."

Although he wasn't completely wrong…

"If it is not marriage, then I wonder what binds you together." He said staring at me as he just was his puzzle piece. Had I just began his newest game…this could be fun…

"And an inquisitive child…" I said with a smirk. I stared at him my eyes raking over his form…but perhaps…

"Perhaps the next time we cross paths I might tell you of our bond…" I said thoughtfully.

"The next time we meet?" And there it was, the interest…the anticipation…

"But of course…it is not often that I meet child such as yourself…"I said with mischievous eyes, I knew I was only adding oil to his already overly sized ego, but I couldn't help it. It would only push him further…make his soul even more savory…for when I returned.

"Keh," He said arrogantly a smirk making a way to his lips as his own eyes flashed mischievously. "Well you've rather caught my interest as well; I look forward to the day we meet again.

"Lady Michiko, if you are ready…" Yukio said as he walked towards me. He offered me his hand and I took it, but without taking my eyes off of Ruki's.

"As do I." He walked towards me and I him.

He took my hand placing a kiss on it like a true gentleman and when he bowed I couldn't help but to want to see that beautiful bloodlust in his eyes again.

"Make them bow…make their kneecaps crack and freeze on the marble floor, make their necks break from bending…" I whispered sinfully my voice taking on that of a predatory play with its prey before I place a kiss on his kiss.

His young heart was beating erratically in his chest his pale skin flushed red but his eyes…his eyes were stormed over with impending bloodlust

"Don't stop…until they are on their knees." I whispered as I walked away from him ignoring Yukio's glare and the tightening of his hand on my arm.

I looked down as my eyes flashed demonically as I heard him breathe out.

"I won't…"

"What the hell was that? What the hell was today?!" Yukio hissed as we got in the carriage.

My eyes glowed as I thought about my day out with Yukio, it was most eventful.

"A little this and that and just a bit little preparation for the future…"

OMG OMG OMG!

So how'd I do, huh huh huh? lol ok I'll stop now. But no forreal tell me what you think about the character intros to our favorite bipolar idol and our favorite anime Christian Grey lol?
