To a hungry vampire the smell of blood is intoxicating and the taste is pure ecstasy. The hunt is quick and the meal savored.

Against the backdrop of revolution, she will follow the tenets of the Kamiya Kasshin-ryu, lending her help to those she can, including a mysterious young man with fire-red hair.

He picked up one of her sleeping yukatas. His nose was assaulted by a powerful smell, sweat and the smell of a woman's arousal.'Kami, help me', he prayed as he looked at the garment, and giving in to temptation, he buried his nose in it breathing deeply. K/K, set post-Jinchuu

Somehow, he couldn't help but notice the young woman who dared walk the streets of Kyoto alone after dark and wielded only a bokken. It was only a matter of time before their paths crossed.

They met at a wrong time, for their love to blossom. Truthfully speaking they both knew that occupied France during the World War II wasn't a right place for anything. That's why they both did their best to hide their feelings until it was no longer possible. Even when everything was against them and life seemed to start falling apart. But both Kaoru and Kenshin survived.

(An AU, slightly OOC Kenshin/Kaoru two-shot fic.)

-COMPLETE- His eyes seemed to swirl from hard metal into a pool of molten, golden magma. "Sometimes there is only one solution," he said huskily, and what composure Kaoru had left diminished entirely.
