Dark Heart.

Chapter Twenty One.

Lord Michael walks into the tavern and looks the place over quickly before spotting the creature he'd come to see. He strides over to the table where the animal sits drinking with it's pack…he refuses to think of these things as people, their about as human as he is they just hide it better.

'Damn werewolves' he thinks as he reaches the table.

"Well look what we have here…a vampire Lord come to visit" said the alpha wolf with a sneer.

"This is not a social call Lucien…as you well know I have business to discuss" snapped the vampire.

Lucien chuckles and waves a hand at his pack, they rise and leave without a word.

"Sit…talk" says the alpha.

Lord Michael sits opposite the werewolf and says "I understand you solve problems for a fee".

"Only hard problems and for a large fee" grins Lucien.

The vampire nods "Then I have come to the right place".

"What's this problem of yours then?" asked the alpha.

"I want at least two of my brothers dead" stated Lord Michael.

"Only two?" joked Lucien.

The vampire snarls "Don't be flippant with me dog".

A cold look settles on the werewolf's face as he says "Call me that once more and you won't leave here alive bloodsucker".

They glare at each other until the vampire sighs and says "Lets stick to business".

"Fine…which brothers do you want murdered?" asked the alpha.

"Lucifer, he stole a human of mine and I want her back undamaged and then you can deal with my other problem…my brother Castiel" replies the vampire.

Lucien raises an eyebrow at the mention of the last name but says "What sin did the other one commit against you?".

"He loves one of his humans, knows I won't let that stand and wants me dead so he can turn the damn thing" replies Lord Michael.

The alpha shakes his head as he says "Disgusting".

'So Cas finally fell in love, good for him' thought the alpha as he pretended to be repulsed.

"You will do the job?" asked the vampire.

"For a large fee" grins Lucien.

"How large?" asked Lord Michael.

"10,000 each brother" replied the alpha.

"Done" replies the vampire with a grin.

"The human you want back from Lucifer…what's her name?" asked Lucien.

"Kayla…she will be at his side make sure she is not harmed when you kill him" said the vampire.

"We can do that…when do you need it done?" replied the werewolf.

"The sooner the better…Lucifer first then deal with Castiel…oh and bring me his human too" says Lord Michael with a nasty smile.

"Done…I'll get on it first thing tomorrow…tonight I'm getting drunk" grinned the alpha.

"I shall have my man deliver half of your fee in the morning and half when you bring me the humans" said the vampire.

"Fine…now if that's all, I'd like to get back to drinking" replied Lucien.

Lord Michael nods and take his leave.

'Fucking vampires' thinks Lucien as his pack join him again.

"What the fuck did that thing want?" asked Kale.

"It wants us kill two vampires for it" replied the alpha.

"Cowardly bitch…they never fight fair do they" said Rasputin.

"Not unless they have too" adds Alexis.

The pack laugh and order another round as Lucien leans over to Kale and says "One of the vamps he wants dead is Castiel".

"What? Why the hell would anyone want Cas dead…he's the most decent one of the lot" gasped Kale.

"Seems he had the gall to fall in love…with his food" grinned Lucien.

"No…really, Cas is finally happy and that prick wants him dead for it. Fuck that…we're not doing it are we?" said Kale.

Lucien frowns at his second and says "What do you think?".

"We're not doing it" replied Kale.

"Exactly…I said we would just to get rid the damn thing. He wants Lucifer dead too and that we can do…I have to warn Cas about this though so we'll go see an old friend tomorrow and get a look at this human he's fallen for" said the alpha.

"Knowing Cas…the humans fucking gorgeous, he always did have good taste" grinned Kale.

The alpha nods and chuckles.

'Fuck…have to warn Luc' thinks Kale.

The next morning Kale is up and gone before anyone else wakes. He shifts and runs to Lucifer's as he's faster in wolf form and needs to warn his lover of the impending danger. He can't stop it and will have to help his pack but he can at least give the vampire a heads up. Werewolves feel pain differently than most beings, they enjoy it…which is why he has been Lucifer's lover off and on for the past ten years. Kale just hopes he can warn the vampire and get back before he's missed. Lucien would skin him if he knew he'd warned a target.

"Kale…what brings you here?" asks Lucifer when the werewolf is bought to him.

"Can't stay Luc…just come to warn you that Michael unleashed the dogs on you" replied Kale.

"He what?" snarled the vampire.

"Contracted Lucien last night…you have a day maybe two. Sorry Luc, I can't stop this" replied the werewolf sadly.

Lucifer sighs "I know pet…you can't go against your alpha. Did my brother say why?" he said.

"You stole his human…which is better reason than the one he gave for offing Castiel" says Kale.

"He hired Lucien to kill Castiel too?" asked Lucifer seeing a way out of this.

"Yeah Cas fell for a human and is going to turn it…Michael's appalled apparently. So he hired us to do you both and take the humans to him" replied Kale.

"I have to warn him…we can save each other" said Lucifer.

"No need, we're not doing Castiel" replied Kale.

"Why?" asked the vampire with a scowl.

"He and Lucien go way back…if anything he'll turn on Michael to keep Cas safe. How could Cas save you anyway?" replied the werewolf.

"We very recently found something in common…love for a human" said Lucifer.

"So that's why you stole her" replied Kale looking at the girl sitting beside his lover.

"Oh, pet don't get jealous. You know I could never give you up" smiles Lucifer as he rises and moves to embrace the werewolf.

"Yeah…I know Luc. We fuck…we fight but we always come back to each other. I'm not jealous…she's only human after all so I know she can't take half the pain I can…she's no threat" replied Kale as he held the vampire tightly.

Lucifer smiles then and says "No one can take the pain you can pet…it's why I can't stay mad at you for long".

"That and you love my huge dick too much" grinned the werewolf.

"Well that too" smirked the vampire before kissing his lover deeply.

The kiss breaks and Kale says "I better go, we're going to warn Cas today so go see him later…see if he'll help you".

"I will pet, now go before your alpha knows your missing" replied Lucifer.

Kale nods hugs Luc once more and leaves.

When the werewolf is gone the vampire turns to Kayla and says "I'm going to have to beg Castiel for his help…I started all this my darling. I wanted Cas dead for loving that boy of his and now I am in the same boat…I don't know what I'll do if Castiel refuses to help us…I can't fight the entire pack".

"Take me with you…let him see that you know how he feels because you feel it too. Show him your on the same side" replies Kayla.

The vampire nods "Yes, good idea darling. He won't believe it unless he see's it but I will still have to beg his forgiveness" says Lucifer.

"Then beg Luc…you can't die and let me go back to him, I hate him…he's nothing like you" replies Kayla.

The vampire pulls her up and into his arms as he says "I love you my darling girl and I will do whatever I have to, to keep you from Michael".

"I love you too…thank you Luc, I know you hate to beg" she replies softly as she snuggles into his embrace.

The vampire sighs "For you it is a small price to pay".

*All reviews welcome ! Told you there would be werewolves…and yes I have done a tiny cross over with Underworld but only Lucien is from there. The rest of the pack are OC's. We'll get to how Lucien and Castiel know each other in the next bit so keep calm and hang on…this is a long ride*
