Aye! I updated within record timing again...at least for me I think...

This chapter is deicated to VampireSiren she gave me the idea about the scene with Ayato x Michiko and Reiji x Michiko and I hope I did I good job bringing them to life.

Please Enjoy!

oh and before I forget and get in trouble this chapter has mentions of sex: if you ain't bout that life do not read! you have been warned!

The moon was her sun...

The night was her day...

Her blood is their life...

But they are her prey...

"What the fuck is wrong with you? you are truly a despicable creature to prey on children." Yukio slams the door, berating me for my actions throughout the day after her forced me to tell him.

The atmosphere was clouded with anger and rage, so potent I can almost see it swirling around.

"Don't fucking try to guilt trip me, you knew what you were getting into before getting affiliated with me."

Yukio takes a threatening step towards me, his hands clenched so tightly at his sides I can see his knuckles turn white and his jaw clenched. I can feel the anger rolling off of him in waves. "If your going to gripe at every little thing I do, I might as well devour your unworthy soul now..."

Yukio strikes quick, the back of his hand connecting with my cheekbone and my head snaps viciously to the side.

I gasp a deep breath, completely taken aback.

My heart thunders in my chest and the booming sound in my ears drowns out every other sound. My fingernails grow into claws as the energy courses through my veins, a side effect of my control starting to crumble. But not from anger.

Of course I'm angry. I'm being scolded like a human child. I don't take well to people reprimanding me.

This is something different. This kinky dark side of mine, being brought to the surface with a vengeance.

I slowly raise my head, turning toward him, the corner of my mouth twitching.

I notice the slight change in Yukio's stance, almost as if he's going to back away from me.

The loud crack of my hand across his face echoes off the walls, the palm of my hand stinging from the blow...and I relished at the fact that I heard his cheekbone shatter...

Yukio whips his head back to face me, his lips pulled tightly into a thin line. He growls as he pushes me up against the wall, his hands wrapping tightly around my wrists and slamming them against the wall on either side of my head.

The black fury in his eyes quickly shifts to that of lust, his chest heaving and his breaths start to come quicker.

He hesitates for a second and then his mouth is on me, his tongue thrusting firmly into my mouth, sliding against mine. He bends his knees slightly, parting my legs with his and pushes his body flush against mine.

Yukio's hands slowly move down my arms, his fingertips dancing across my skin, leaving a tingling sensation that burns straight to my core. My hands go straight for his hair, pulling at the messy tresses, making him groan. He takes my bottom lip between his teeth, biting down and I whimper as the salty, iron taste hits my tongue.

"I should really be punishing you for disobeying my orders," Yukio kisses across my jaw and down my neck, his teeth sinking into the soft flesh at my jugular. I pull his head up by his hair, those dark pink eyes piercing straight to my soul.

"But master you never made it an official order, so technically I did follow your guidelines perfectly." My tongue peeks out to swipe across his top lip.

"Ooh," His lips pucker in that sexy way, that he does when he thinks he can fully dominate me. "Is that a challenge?"

His smirk creeps slowly and it's almost as if I can hear his mind running through the different ways to punish me.

I shrug my shoulders, quirking an eyebrow at him.

"Oh, you're gonna wish you hadn't done that." Yukio rips the top of my dress in two, my corset and the rest of my dress skirt follow shortly after.

Yukio runs his large, strong hands up my legs, kneading at my skin as he bends slightly, grabbing the back of my thighs and he lifts me.

My legs hang over his shoulders, my thighs clamping around his head.

"Look at you, already fucking dripping wet for me," He breathes against my pussy and latches onto my clit, sucking furiously.

My body hunches as he devours me, every nerve in my body alight with that dark desire that he's gained the ability to bring out. His tongue slips inside of me, swirling and burying deep as he nudges the tip of his nose against my clit.

My hands find their way to his blonde hair again, pulling him against me and he growls against my overly sensitive skin. I shiver as the vibration moves through me, inching me closer and closer to oblivion. He moves back to my clit, biting softly and I can feel the heat start to spread through me, the slow burn making me moan uncontrollably.

He looks back at me. "Show to me your true face, you filthy lecherous demon…"

I smirked my fangs growing as I stared down at my eyes glowing with demonic energy. "I am your master and you will submit yourself to me, I will make you!"

My eyes flashed as I leaned over ripping open his blouse his buttons shooting across the room from my strength, letting my tongue trail his neck.

I watched as my contract mark pulses before seemingly spreading over his shoulder, and grinned with greed…his time was running short with giving me orders…but I was a good sport…I could play along for a little while longer…and then…

Then….I would happily devour his soul.

I unwrapped my legs from his head grabbing him in my arms before teleporting him to his room.

I straddled him taking in his flush face and lust filled eyes. "Are you that naive, Yukio? If you believe that you can tame me, you are wrong. You may be the most recent carrier of my contract seal, but you're still a Livestock to me. A prey, do you not understand? Or should I make sure you remember your position underneath me?"

He let out a moan as I teasingly bucked my hips over his clothed erection. My grin was feral…

I shall drag you to the depth of hell, and let you get a sweet taste of sin.

~~~Guilty Pleasures~~~

As old as I was…humans rarely ever surprised me anymore…and yet I can say I found myself utterly bewildered when I heard little knocks upon my door.

I walked towards the door opening it only to find a child on the other side.

He grey eyes with hints of amethyst and black messy, curly hair with lighter gray tips. He had a pale complexion, with a noticeable scar on the bridge of his nose and here are bandages around his arms.

He stared at me and I stared…at his wounds…they were fresh. "Sorry miss I…am looking for…Dr. Yukio…"

I stared at him ignoring that he seemingly had some type of speech impediment. "And who might you be little one?"

"…Azusa…"

I knelt in front of him as his eyes continued to stare at me; I was not in a state that most humans chose to be in a corset and a single layered dress skirt was all that I wore.

I looked over his wounds once more, gauging if he would die if I decided to close the door, I doubt Yukio would be please if I devoured a child…especially one that knew him.

I stood back up letting out a breath I didn't need because He was a sentimental bastard.

But my decision was not about how Yukio would feel, no, it was the child eyes it's self are what stopped me from shutting him out.

The lack of hope and happiness….the lack of life…

I opened my door wider to him as I continued to stare at him and after a moment he slowly began to walk into my den, my eyes tracking his every movement.

I closed the door and locked it before walking past him as he stood in the middle of the entrance way.

"Follow me." I said tensely and I didn't have to look behind me to see if he was following me, the smell of his blood was enough to let me know that much.

I brought him to my back room before picking him up and sitting him on my desk.

Azusa didn't fight me, nor did he ask me any questions…he was clearly a child that experienced something so traumatic that he no longer felt the need to fear or care about anything…his life included…

I came back with several of Yukio's medical supplies not bothering to awaken the sleeping human to deal with the tinier one.

"Azusa." I called and he looked up at me. "How do you know Yukoi."

Azusa surprised me when a frown made its way to his face.

"He took…them away…I want them back."

I raised an eyebrow, here I thought Yukio had went out and did something heroically stupid but instead….

"Them? Azusa, tell me your story."

"As far back I can remember, there was never a time in my life where anyone or anything was there to protect me…"

I stared at him. So he was abandoned…

"The people who came and went…everyone looked to me as if they had obtained the kind of happiness I could only see in dreams…"

"Alone among them, I could only continue to wonder wherever I was alive or dead. Living wasn't something that someone as empty as myself could really feel."

"I see…so you wanted proof that you were alive…a reason to keep going a reason to live."

He looked up at me his eyes widened a fraction and I raised an eyebrow at his shock. What the hell was he so damned shocked about?

"Yes….those were the only things I craved…And then…"

"And then?"

"They came…" He said with a smile on his face.

"Who?"

"Melissa Justin and Christina…."

"Michiko who are you-" Yukio asked before his eyes widened "Azusa! What are you doing here?"

Yukio looked between the two of us before stepping closer. He frowned when he noticed blood on my hands. "Michiko…what did you do?"

My lip curled at the accusation and I moved to stand behind the child wrapping my arms around him as I placed my cheek on his neck.

"Nothing…we were just having a nice little chat, weren't we Azusa-kun."

I felt the boy's skin warm with me holding him so intimately.

"Azusa-kun was just telling me his story before you so rudely interrupted Yukio." I said through narrowed eyes.

He narrowed his eyes. "There blood on your hands…"

"There's always blood on my hands don't look so shocked now."

"Why?"

"I was merely changing his bandages, that's all…"

He knew I couldn't lie to him so he nodded. "I'll be back…don't hurt him."

"Don't tempt me." I snickered before releasing the young boy from my embrace. I walked back in front of him to finish changing his bandages, I looked up at hi m flashing him a smile. "Please continue your story Azusa-kun."

He nodded and told me about the group of children that beat him up that day and the next and the next…and all because they were beaten…it was a long and angry chain of abuse.

I rolled my eyes…only humans would be capable of such stupidity.

I listened as the boy explained how he came to except his role in the world…his role to accept their anger.

"That's the reason I exist."

"Ahh I get it." I said with a devious smile. "You are a little masochist. Well are you in luck little boy as I happen to delight in sad-"

"No." I sigh rolling my eyes as Yukio stormed in glaring at me. "No Michiko."

"Why not…" I said wrapping my arm around the young boy before licking his cheek. "He's begging to be broken…I give him his reason to live and he gives me my entertainment…is that not fair?"

Yukio's glare was cold. "I said no Michiko, and that's final."

He turned to look at Azusa in disappointment. "And no, that is not the reason you exist. I didn't stop those kids from beating you to death just for you to think in such ways."

He helped the young boy down from the table pulling on his uninjured part of his body to follow him.

Yukio's glare was cold and his words were colder but…

I watched letting out a bit bemused as the child frowned at Yukio before looking back at me with a forlorn gaze.

The child's fate was sealed the moment I set my eyes on him…

~~~~...~~~

I hummed to myself as aimless wondered my own bed chambers. I had extended my stay simply because of Azusa…if not for him, I would have abandoned Yukio to fend for himself while I went back to play with my Sakamaki loves.

But alas I had one objective to accomplish before I left…and that was…

"Mikogami…" I turned to see Azusa bowed before me.

I smirked. "Azusa-kun…I was just thinking about you."

I couldn't see his face because he was still bowing but his ears were red and his heart was beating erratically.

"Did you want me to service you?"

"What an enticing question…"I mused. He didn't know how badly I wanted him to service me.

"Azusa-kun…what brings you to my private chambers….the very place Yukio forbid you from entering at any time."

"I was worried about you Mikogami…"

I stared at him. "Azusa-kun, you do not need to continue bowing, I would prefer you to look me in my eyes when you talk to me."

He slowly stood, his eyes immediately finding my own, and I smirked when pink splattered across his face. "That's better now, tell me why were you worried about me…"

He fidgeted. "Mikogami….hasn't eaten….in days…."

I looked away from his eyes choosing instead to stare at a wall.

"Mikogami…has been restless…."

"What's your point kid?"

"Mikogami…are you…hungry?"

"No." My stomach growled at the thought and I could feel Azusa's gaze penetrate my flesh.

"I can… give you… some food." My eyes flashed and I covered my mouth as I felt my fangs lengthen at his innocent offer before taking a deep breath.

"It's fine, I'm not that hungry and please never suggest that you give me some food. Now go away…" I said before biting my lip as I closed my eyes.

"I see." He said I heard his feet shuffle and my door close. I sighed letting out a breath thinking the boy had left the room only for my eyes to snap open gazing at him when the smell of fresh blood stained the air.

"What the hell are you doing you damned brat." I growled glaring at him.

Azusa stared at me with eyes before smiling and holding out his cut arms, as offering. "Mikogami is hungry… I want Mikogami… to drink from me and…. feel better…

My entire body was tense. I griped my mattress my claws easily sinking into it as his tantizing scent clouded my senses.

I grunted resisting the urge to back away from him as he took slow steps towards me…I was the predator not the prey.

I looked at him in warning. "You have no idea what you asking for…"

"Mikogami…you know why… I call you Mikogami….because I know what you are…."

My eyes dilated my breathing was heavy. I that right….then tell me?

Mikogami…is a divine being…eternally beautiful…Mikogami I have seen….the faustian seal…on Yukio-san…."

My eyes flashed and I tackled him to the floor. His eyes widened as he stared into my eyes, but there was no hint of fear only curiosity and excitement.

"You smell so inviting Azusa-kun, how can I resist such a tempting offering." I said as I raised his bloodied arm to my lips.

"Just a little taste…" I muttered before letting my tongue draw across his wound.

~~~…~~~

"Mikogami…do you have to leave?" Azusa asked me and I gave him a small smile. I had extended my stay even longer after I had tasted Azusa to the point I didn't feed from Yukio. Azusa had a unique flavor that I just couldn't get enough off I had a feeling it had to do with his Romani bloodline, the Romani people had such a distinctive taste their blood was rich and piquant, and grew to something silimar of liquid lava the full-blooded the romani was...because of that their blood appealed to the stronger level of demons.

I stared at him thoughtfully I hadn't had blood such as his for over a century. I smiled and I was well in luck because, Azusa was full-blooded Romani, I could taste it in his blood thus making a demon like me have to urge to venerate him all the more.

I wondered where his people had gone off too and why they had left him alone...if they had left him alone or if he had siblings that he just couldn't remember...despite it being a while see I was last in accompany of the romani people they were not the time to abandon they family...much less a child.

Perhaps I'll look into it later...I thought to myself because other than that... he was such a well trained prey that I couldn't help but grow attached to...After all, it was not often for one to come across a prey that understood they were prey and acted accordingly without having to be trained.

"Yes, I do." His face looked crestfallen and I chuckled walking over and tilting his chin to meet my eyes.

"Azusa-kun don't be so greedy…we have spent quite a bit of time alone together have we not…even Yukio has noticed…you have done a bad job at not making him jealous…or maybe that was you true intention…to flaunt you newly acquired position in his face…you are such a naughty boy…"

His cheeks tinted pink as they usually did whenever I even subtly mentioned my feeding from him…the little masochist.

I smiled as I looked him over, his wounds from those other humans were healing nicely…after all it helped when he wasn't getting beaten an inch of his life every day.

But the wounds I had marked his body with were still very much visible…they weren't too bad, little bites here and there nothing too serious…after all he was just a child he needed time to mature and grow into himself…and then…there would be no holding back.

"None the less, I must take my leave now. I have other matters that require my attention and need to be dealt with immediately. But that doesn't mean that I will forget you."

His eyes brighten. "You…won't."

"I won't." I said as brushed my finger though his hair. "You may stay here as long as you wish or you may leave. You are not a prisoner here."

He nodded.

"However…" I said with a pause and he looked at me. 'understand now that you have chosen me…I am the only one allowed to savor all aspects of you until the day you meet you final end…do you understand?"

He nodded a blush on his cheeks. "Yes."

I smiled. "That's a good boy."

I walked towards my door. "Try not to give Yukio too much hell...I want you to be here to greet me when I return..."

With that I teleported.

~~~…~~~

"Ayato-hunny what are you doing?" I asked as I watched him as he grabbed all his building blocks.

"I want to build something for you but I don't know what?" Ayato said with a sigh and a pout.

"Well I like castles, why don't you build me a nice big castle? How does that sound?" I asked and his eyes brightened.

"Yeah, ok. I will build you the best castle. I will stack the building blocks higher and higher until it's a tall castle so watch me ok!" Ayato said with a wide grin.

"Of course!" I said before I sunk to the floor to watch him. "I'm sure any castle you will make will be most impressive."

His face flushed before he grinned and returned his attentions to his blocks as I silently watched him.

I welcomed Laito's affections when he wrapped his arms around me from behind, his face placed on my shoulder after kissing my cheek in welcome.

"Hey Ayato-kun, how high's it gonna be?" Laito asked his brother who had paused in his building to glare at him.

"It's none of your business, so what's it matter to you?"

I was about to tell Ayato not to be so mean to his brother when Cordelia walked into the room. "Oh Ayato is this your castle here?"

"Yep!" Ayato said proudly.

"Amazing as to be expected of my son." I cut my eyes at my younger sister but she took that as a que to push me further. He leaned down cupping his chin to looking into their shared eyes. That's right my son…you mustn't lose to anyone. You must only win."

"Yeah…I will." Ayato said.

"To inherit Karl's power, you must become the best…" She said her eyes drilling into his own.

"I'll be the best…" Ayato repeated.

I my glare hardened as she released his chin before she knocked over his blocks.

"Ahh…" Ayato said shocked that his castle was no more.

"Cordelia…" I said in warning.

"Oh sorry Ayato…but its fine isn't it? They were just blocks after all, right?" Cordelia said glaring down at the boy.

"…yeah…" He said still staring at his broken castle missing his mother's glare.

She tossed me a triumphant smirk before walking across the hall. I moved closer to Ayato placing my hand under his chin and making him look toward me.

I kissed his cheek. "It's alright hunny, you can make me another castle right?"

He nodded. "Yes, this time I'll make it much higher!"

I smiled at his determination. "That good, I will be right back to watch you ok."

He nodded and I stood to follow after Cordelia. I paused when I heard Laito speak to Ayato again. "You're doing it again after she broke it, why?"

"Yes…I'm doing it for Michiko-chan, I'll do it as many times as she asks…" Ayato said seriously after discreetly cutting his eyes in the direction his mother left.

~~~…~~~

"At last it's a new record! Michiko will be so happy!" Ayato said with an accomplished smile before gasping when Cordelia knocked it down.

"Why? Why does he always carry on about that woman? Even though I am clearly the best choice for him… Why?" Cordelia said pacing around the room.

"The blocks…Michiko-chan's castle is ruined…" Ayato muttered staring at his once again destroyed castle.

"Ayato!" She snapped making him flinch. "How much longer will you keep playing with those!? You'll never become the best that way!"

She snatched all the blocks away from him.

"That sort of thing is meaningless! BURRN IT ALL!" She shouted throwing the blocks into the furnace before laughing.

"Ah….now I can't stack them any more for Michiko-chan…." Ayato whimpered.

"CORDEILA!" I snapped my eyes flashing as I teleported into the room. I leave for two seconds and all hell breaks loose… "What the hell do you think you're doing destroying my gift? Are you trying to pick a fight with me!"

"He will never be vampire king playing with stupid worthless building block and you know it!"

"I don't give a single fuck!" I growled in her face silencing her and making her glare at me.

"You…don't give a …fuck. Are you out of you mind. That's all you should care about, making Ayato the next vampire king! Or are you to busy prepping another heir behind my back?!" She snapped back.

"I think you should go to sleep now with your mouth shut….or the next thing that will come out of it will be your teeth." I hissed as my eyes slit demonically.

She opened her mouth but immediately closed it noticing my serious look. She scowled before stomping out of the room with me glaring at her form until she disappeared.

I let out a sigh counting to ten to get my emotions back in check before turning to Ayato who was staring at his burned up blocks.

"Ayato-hunny come here…" I said softly and after a moment more of staring into the fire before rushing into my arms.

"Why…is she like that?" Ayato asked after I soothed his tears.

I sighed. "Sometimes darling even if you have special feelings for someone…there no guarantee those feelings will be definitely returned…but she is wrong for taking it out on you."

"This is all that man's fault…"

"That may be true but she should confront her problem head on if it bothers her so much instead of taking her anger out on my hunny…" I said darkly making Ayato look up from my chest to stare at me.

"That is something I just cannot allow after all." I said brushing his hair from his eyes.

"Why?" He asked blushing as I rubbed my nose against his, giving him eskimo kisses.

"Because you are precious to me." I said with a smile before a frown made its way to my face. "Don't you return my feelings Ayato-hunny, am I not precious to you?"

"You are!" Ayato said instantly his grip tightening on me till the point of bruising and breaking my bones if I was a human and I smiled. "Michiko-chan is the most precious the most special to me….it's just…"

I looked at him raising my eyebrow waiting for him to continue.

"I don't understand her ways…" He trailed off and I frowned at the thought of him stressing over Cordelia. He shouldn't be worrying over her…

"But I believe what you say, because you would never lie to me…I'll stop doing that kind of thing…" He said talking to himself before looking up at me with heartless peridot eyes. "I won't make anyone else special not now not ever again."

I blinked resisting shivering as it was he who rubbed his nose against my own before placing his head on my chest with a sigh. "Michiko-chan will be my one and only special one…forever."

~~~…~~~

I smiled as I walked towards the triplet's room. I knocked on the door and waited to enter.

"Michiko-chan?"

"It is me, may I came in?" I asked.

"Yes." He said and I heard him fumble around on the other side of the door before.

He opened the door and I smiled seeing him all dressed up with a dressed up Teddy in his arms.

"Oh my, look at you! You look so dashing!" I said looking over his cute ruffled dress shirt and dark blue shorts.

I could resist and snatched him into my arms twirling him around and fawning over him as the boy laughed.

"Ok ok…"I said after a moment and set him back down.

He looked over me. "Michiko looks cute too."

I smiled at him trying to be sweet, but I was dressed in nothing special, just a casual day dress.

"Michiko-chan looks cute in anything she wears." He said cutely tilting his head to the side and I was once again overcome with the need to fawn over him, this time peppering him with kisses.

"This is really amazing darling." I said as I sat across from him as we enjoyed tea, and a massive magnitude of sweets.

"Thank you!" He said before and we sat enjoying each other's company and began a conversation on cute things.

"Speaking of cute…" Kanato said making me stare at him curiously. "I have something for you Michiko-chan."

"A gift, for me?" I asked curiously as my eyes trailed him as he walked towards his bed and pulling a box from underneath it.

I took the pink bowed box. I opened it with a smile as I tried to figure out what exactly it was…I positively loved gifts…

My lips however thinned as I held up the piece of black, white and red fabric that I was sure stopped mid-thigh. My eyes narrowed. "Kanato…"

"Can you please wear it Michiko-chan. Please pretty please?" The boy asked innocently.

I stared into his eyes before looking back at the fabric and then the box with the secondary item in it and my eye twitched. "Kanato…"

"Please, I think Michiko-chan will look really cute."

I sighed. "Alright."

He cheered clapping his arm as I stood and walked into the triplet's bathroom.

I scowled as I stared at my reflection.

"Is everything alright Michiko-chan?" Kanato asked worried about me and the time I was taking in the bathroom.

"Everything's fine." I said as I came out of the bathroom to notice Kanato now had bunny ears on his head…what a damn coincidence….

Kanato's eyes widened when he saw me, before his face was covered with a pink hue. "Michiko-chan ka-ka-kawaii!"

I sighed as my cheeks grew rosy. "Kanato-kun my darling, please explain to me how you managed to get your hands on this bunny girl maid outfit?"

Kanato smiled before looking at Teddy. "Teddy said he knew a guy…and went to retrieve this for me, he even knew your size. It fits perfectly."

My eyes narrowed on the bear that seemed to sweat. "I see…"

"Are you mad…do you not like it?" Kanato said his eyes sad.

"Not at all Kanato-kun, I think it's cute…just not appropriate for a tea party…"

"Nonsense, all cute things are allowed at tea parties, and in my presence." He said before grabbing my arm and pulling me towards the door.

"Eh?! Kanato where are we going?"

"It's a surprise…come on." Kanato said and I sighed before letting him lead me outside glaring at the servants who openly stared at me…and it wasn't with the cute and innocent Kanato had….

"Ayato-kun Laito-kun look, isn't Michiko-chan kawaii!" My face grew warm as the red heads stared at me with heated eyes.

Ayato's face was bright red and Laito's wasn't any better. I shifted under their predatory gaze.

"Kanato-kun…"

Kanato looked up at me with an innocent smile. "Yes, kawaii-chan?"

I let out another sigh. "Nothing, you stay here with your brothers, I will be right back."

"You're not going to change are you?" Kanato asked and I bite my lip.

"Kanato this outfit-"

"We match each other!" He said cutting me off pointing to his own set of bunny ears. "So please don't change yet, let's be kawaii together for a little while longer!"

"Fine…" I said and Kanato cheer…this time along with his brothers.

I was glad when I was able to finally take off the bunny girl outfit. If it wasn't bad enough the triplets got to see me in it but the others as well. Subaru resembled a tomato before he fainted when we he saw me out in the gardens picking flowers with Kanato. Reiji was at a loss for words and avoided eye contact with me when he asked me about a herb from the demon world but Shu reaction was the worst out of all of them because he was the most mature out of the lot…

His eyes smoldered me; lips curled up into a smirk as his eyes figure-eight my figure.

"Keh, Michiko-chan your cheeks are the color of blood roses…that's a good look for a lewd woman like you…" He whispered to me in passing the halls because Kanato wanted more sugar for his tea. My little angel had looked as if he were about to devour me on the spot…

Something that frightened and excited me at the same time.

I sighed shaking my head, I had no doubt flushed several years of their childhood innocence down the drain, basically giving their libido a massive jerk into gear.

I grimaced crossing my arms as I turned my glare on to the person who was responsible for all this crap.

"Tenebrae…"

The male flinched even as his face wore a red hue. "Mistress…I swear I can explain…"

My fangs glinted as they bared at him in a menacing fashion. "You can explain while you beg for your pitiful afterlife as I rip you to shreds…"

~~~~…..~~~

"Michiko…how lovely to hear from you-"

"I wasn't ever planning on calling you but damnit to hell you fucking staff here sucks! They don't know how to make shit much less a decent meal!" There was silence on the other line before he chuckled making me scowl. "I'm fucking starving and your over here laughing, this is a serious matter, I'm not just thinking of me but my babies as well."

He sighed. "Michiko the boys won't stave-"

"How the hell would you know? It's not like you've been around to see if they are staved or not." I snipped.

Again silence. The vampire king sighed again, his tone more subdued. "What would you have me do to appease you? Do you want them replaced with new staff?"

"What I want you to do is piss off." I growled before slamming the phone shut.

I stared at it feeling a sense of satisfaction knowing that I had no doubt pissed him off and ruined his day…a triumphant smirk made its way to my face, mission accomplished.

I sighed as I searched the cabinets for something to eat.

"Michiko-san..."

I didn't even look back, instead I just replied. "Hey Reiji-kun, how are you."

"I'm fine….are you looking for something?" He asked after a moment.

I nodded "Yes…"

"Perhaps I can tell you…"

"I'm looking for some pasta noodle, I want past, I'm hungry."

"Oh, well then please allow me." He said and this time I actually looked back at him.

"Allow you?"

"Yes." He said as he held out his books to me. "Can you please watch over these books."

"Of course." I said with a smile before moving out of his way.

I pouted as he found the items I had damn near destroyed the kitchen to find in a matter of seconds.

My eyes rolled over him as he washed his hands in the sink before tying an apron around his waist and began doing things that I had seen chefs do.

"So…cooking huh?"

He blushed. "yes…well I saw a cook book in the library and thought it a strange place for it to be, I was bringing it down to the kitchen when I got curious and looked inside. It had pictures of a lot of dishes that I thought might be tasty so I began creating them."

"And what's your favorite one?"

He flushed again. "If allowed it could eat Spaghetti Carbonara everyday…"

"Hm sounds tasty…can I try it?"

"Sure." He sure his face turning even redder and I snickered.

I moaned after I took the first bite, I looked at him with half lidded eyes taking in his flushed expression as he stared at me. "This is delicious Reiji-kun…"

"T-Thank you" He said bashfully.

"This is the best spaghetti carbonara I've had!" I said continuing to give him praise as I continued to stuff my face with the delicious pasta dish.

I let out a content sigh waving my hands to the familiar to carry away my dishes, yes dishes…I had successfully eaten six plates of his dish…he was just that good.

"Would you like some tea?" He asked politely after we had moved from the kitchen to his room.

"I would love some darling but here let me pour it for you." I said as I teleported behind him and pushing him back down in his seat. He had after all done all of the cooking, making tea for us to share would be nothing short of a slice of cake.

I poured him his cup adding the amount of sugar I knew he liked making him smile in thanks before handing it to him and then poured myself a cup before taking a sip and letting out a content sigh.

"Oh, I have a gift just for you Reiji-kun." I said with a smile.

"Just for me?" He said shocked.

I nodded before waving my hand as black mist surrounded the space in front of him before dissipating to reveal a black box wrapped in royal purple colored ribbons.

"You didn't have to…" He said softly.

"I know that darling, but I wanted to. I do enjoy spoiling my favorite megane. So go on and open it."

He blushed. Nodding his head and sputtering a 'thank you' as he carefully opened the package.

I watched his face soaking in his expression, he didn't disappoint. Reiji's eyes lit up like humans on Christmas morning when he caught sight of what it was.

"This is…this is from the Han Dynasty…where…how?" He asked his resembled freshly cut rubies as they glittered with excitement.

I smiled. "Well as you know I'm a lot older then I look, I've been around and I've meet quite a few people. I knew the Hans, I was there for the rise and fall." I snickered thinking about the past. "They were quite the rowdy bunch…but naturally as it stands I would own a tea set from that time."

"Who else did you meet?" He asked his eyes shining and I smiled before divulging in some of what I felt like were my greatest conquests and meetings of humans that I deemed worthy enough to spend my time with.

I had finished telling him about the time I drink wine with Cleopatra when I decided he had heard enough about me. "So tell me about what you've been up to?"

He blinked.

"Come on, I really want to know? You most recent experiments have been on my mind for a while now."

He blushed before asking shyly. "You've been thinking about me?"

"Of course, you occupy a space in my mind as much as the others. So please satiate my curiosity."

He smiled before he began to tell me all about what he had been up to since that last time I had spoken with him. He told me all about his experiments with different types of herbs and animals that he could find.

He told me all of this with pink tinted cheeks as he began to really go into detail about his favorite thing he like to do, create poisons.

"Reiji-kun you are so smart and talented, I'm so jealous." I said soaking in all that he had told me.

He flushed.

"Say Reiji-kun, if I ever feel to any sickness or disease…would you save me?"

He flushed even redder. "Of course."

I smiled. "I knew I could count on you. You will be the one to cure the world one day." …or poison it…

"M-Michiko-san." He said shyly and I chuckled.

"Well I glad, there's not enough people in the world that there studies seriously, I'm glad you do so, we need more people like you."

"Yeah." He said with a smile before a scowl flashed across his features. "And not deadbeats…"

"Deadbeats?" I said and I wondered if Reiji was openly talking about his father. I knew how the triplets felt, Subaru the sweet thing was an open book and I knew my angel didn't care for him…maybe Reiji didn't either.

"Yes, I cannot stand people that shrink away from their responsibilities…"

I raised an eye brow but let him continue to vent…I'm sure he didn't get the chance to do it often, Beatrix loved perfection.

"Because nothing good comes from one who is spoiled rotten. One who does not but disregards his duties as the eldest son…"

I frowned. Was he talking about my angel? Are you perhaps…referring to shu-kun?

I watched as his hands tightened just by me saying his name. Reiji-kun, that's no way to talk about your brother

His lip curled in a scowl. I speak the truth…he never takes his position seriously always running off when he should be here studying.

I blinked resisting the urge to shudder. The boy sounded like Cordelia.

"-the other day mother was looking for him, when he finally decided to come home he had a filthy dog with him, saying his friend gave it to him-"

I zoned out listening to him as I smiled at the thought of Shu with a puppy. Super cute~

"-and even dared to run off again when mother took the filthy animal from him. He had no regard…no respect… and yet…and yet somehow manages to get all of her attentions…"

He continued his rant like I wasn't even there, his insults on Shu getting to the point where I could feel myself wanting to strike him. I stood as I could smell the jealously and resentment coming off of him.

"Reiji-kun." I said sharply making him flinch as I walked over to him. "Stop speaking of your older brother in such a manner, I won't tolerate such vile behavior coming from you."

He looked frightened at the gaze I was giving him and nodded.

I let out a breath my eyes brightening "Good." I said with a smile before bopping his nose.

I wrapped my arms around him making his face red as I entrapped him. "Sweetheart you are just much too serious. Learn to live a little, do not be afraid to step away from you books and seek me out if you are feeling lonely."

I waited until he nodded before placing a big kiss on his cheek making him blush once more before leaving him.

~~~…~~~

The stars in the sky were nonexistent, as between us arose puffs of gray. Those balls of cotton seen during the day shifted into streams of gray the color of ash and soot. They blanketed the sky, hiding the full moon in its full glory behind them. But the moon fought, oh how it fought to shine its light on the earth. But the clouds stretched over the sky, giving it a hazy ominous feel.

Twas a night for hunting….Twas the night for demons….

"Boy, what a scream that was. It made the hair strand straight up on the back of my neck. It was the loudest most piercing scream I have heard in a long time my dear." My amethyst eyes roamed over her body. "I love it, make it again for me…"

"You're a monster…sick, twisted, vile, disgusting!"

I laughed before leaning over and biting her lip drawing blood. "You flatter me darling. But I'd much rather hear you screaming instead…"

I dug my fingers around her arm until I heard her bones shatter. Her screams was music to my ears…

"Michiko-chan?"

I turned to see Ayato, Kanato and Laito standing behind me in their pajamas.

"Ayato, Kanato, Laito it's past your bed time what are you doing down here?" I said seriously not bothering with using nicknames.

"Couldn't sleep…" Kanato said with his brother nodding before looking at the woman that was strung up behind me. "Who is that?"

"Ah, I see. Oh and this is Amy-"

"It's Amanda you vile beast!" She spat.

Faster than she could see with her very human eyes I struck her across her face before turning back to the triplets who seemed stunned.

"Amy is my little wind up doll, she says the loveliest things, she's feisty on the outside but she loves the game I'm playing."

"Hello Amy." Laito nodded his head slightly his eyes glued to her scantily clad form, while Kanato shyly offered her a smile. I gave a smile as Ayato seemed to be too intrigued by all the blooded devices that scattered the room to say anything to her.

"Help me, please help me. She's a monster; she's a bloody demon please…" She stopped when I laughed.

"See what did I tell you boys?" I trailed my clawed finger across her cheek leaving a trail of blood as he let another scream. "She says the loveliest things about me."

Laito blinked before laughing as well. "How long will you be keeping her Michiko-chan?"

"I don't know yet." I said with a shrug. I was pretty sure by this route she would expire before the morning though…

"Can I play with her too?" Laito asked still staring at the women with intrigue.

I paused looking Laito before also looking at Kanato and Ayato. "Do you want to play with her too?"

"Yes." Kanato said after a moment as I watched Ayato walk behind her and pull on the chains that held her arms.

The human let out a pained shriek and I watched as Ayato's eyes sharpened his lips twitching in amusement at her pain before he pulled again getting a louder shriek.

"Sure why not." I said after a moment deciding that this would be a good moment for them to learn the arts of torture. "I don't mind sharing a few of my toys if it's with my little songbird and my favorite immortal stud."

Laito flushed trying to cover his face scowling lightly while Kanato and Ayato laughed. "Auntie that name is embarrassing."

"Fine how about my little ladykiller?"

His face grew redder. "No."

"I think it's cute though." I said poking his cheek.

"My love muffin?"

"No."

"My cutie pie?"

"Auntie….."Laito whined and this point his entire face was inflamed.

I laughed "Oh alright…what about my precious?"

Laito's face was still red but at least he wasn't whining. I nodded I guess that was his newest nickname.

"Now here wear this; I see no reason for you to get filthy." I said wrapping one of my coats around him.

I handed Kanato a knife. He frowned as he looked at it. "What is this for?"

"Well if we are to share this doll don't you think she should have your name too?"

I pulled his hand over closer to the girl before I unbuttoned her top. She trembled and fought against the chains but still didn't move especially with Ayato holding her still.

"See this is where I put my name." I said pointing out the bloody but clearly written name carved into her chest. "That way everyone knows she's mine. But since I'm sharing you can brand her too."

Kanato eyes widened with a familiar gleam. "Really?"

"Yes."

"You do that to all your dolls?" Laito said his fangs growing as Kanato began carving his name sloppily into the female.

"What else do you do to them?" Ayato asked curiously as he seemed to soak in her screams and horror stricken face.

I smiled my eyes gleaming sadistically as well. "My little loves, I have so much to teach you."

I smiled giving them kisses as the finished playing.

Blood splattered everywhere…a mess I had no intention of cleaning, after all that's what servants were for.

"Michiko-chan can you do that again?" Kanato asked clutching his teddy as he held on to my blood covered hand.

"Of course my darling!" I said.

"Can we use this next time?" Ayato asked holding a scold's bridle.

"Yes, that's brilliant honey!"

"Michiko-chan what's this tall thing?" Laito said pointing towards the back where my favorite torture device stood tall.

A wistful sighed left my lips as I pasted the dead human walking towards the device. "This my precious…is my favorite device…the rack."

"The rack? How does it work?" They asked together.

My eyes glittered as I looked at them biting my lip. "Wanna find out?"

I motioned for them to come closer before having Laito help tie me up considering he as the tallest of the three.

I briefly explained what they were to do. I turned my head towards Laito. "Go on love, no need to be shy…tighten it."

I let out an euphoric hiss when he did.

Laito chuckled. "Look at Michiko-chan face, all red with pleasure…such a lewd expression and sounds she makes too."

Ayato then tightened the wheel tighter making my moans become breathy.

His cheeks were flushed and his eyes glowed as he stared at me. "Lewd…is a good look for Michiko-chan…please continue to take the pain we give you…"

I snickered as I caught myself, looking over at the three with hazy eyes. "Such naughty boys…are you trying to make me come undone…"

I surprised them when I pulled my writs out of the cuffs along with my feet as I towered over them.

I shook my finger in front of them. "You two shouldn't tease me in such a way especially when you can't finish what you start."

I grabbed a tomato faced Kanato in my arms looking back at his brothers with a smirk. "We can play again when you're older and can really handle playing with me."

The blushed before following me out of the torture chamber…they could come back the next time I had better prey.

OK

so I was feeling a bit thirsty so I let Michiko get some. Guilty! #sorrynotsorry but I did try not to over do it cause I mean I have to prepare for the boys right lol

Azusa is introduced in a different way...bet ya'll thought she was gonna find him like everybody else huh? well not in this story, it is he who finds her...for better or worse lol

yes, if it wasn't clear, Michiko did and has been feeding on Azusa...wonder how that's gonna affect him when he meets her again later on...

And yes it is hinted that Yukio is salty about her feeding on Azusa...but he did offer himself...and so why wouldn't she? she is a demon after all...

also...after Azusa is introduced there really isn't a time line. All the rest: being there for Ayato, having a tea party with Kanato, talking with Reji, lessons on torture with the triplets that's just extra extra-ness for ya'll cause I like ya'll so much.

this is the longest chapter by far and I'm hoping to out do it in the next chapter

...

Ayato- hunny

Kanato- songbird

Laito- my precious (hee hee Lord of the rings ref...)
