Seraphina POV
"I burned his hair and you should of seen the way he ran and screamed like a girl" I told Jane and we both laughed.
"Who knew pirates could care that much about their hair" Jane said with a smile.
"You'd be surprised" I smirk.
Me and Jane are chatting in her room when we hear a knock.
Jane opens the door and it's a low rank member, he like most aren't interesting so I don't bother on remembering his name.
"Master Aro is calling for you" the low rank member tells Jane.
"I'm on my way" Jane says her face returning to her blank state.
"Uff just when the story was getting good" I tell Jane after the guy runs off.
"After finishing my duties, we can converse again" Jane says with a small smile.
Converse, she's so formal just like her brother. (Converse=Chat)
"Okay, see you later" I wave and she runs off.
It's been forever since I've had a female friend, I like it.
Jane and I have become good friends in these few weeks I've started living in the castle.
We have many things in common, from our age to our hate for humans.
It also helps she is Alec's sister.
Which reminds me, he still hasn't asked me out on a date, we have flirted plenty during our free time but other than that there hasn't been much progress.
Well whatever I still have some free time, I might as well practice in the training room.
Just as I'm walking towards there, I hear an annoyingly familiar voice.
"Heading to the training center, Seraphina? Would you mind if I joined you?" The annoying blonde asked me again.
Oh Demetri you again...
"Has my answer ever stopped you from doing what you want?" I reply, snidely.
Not long after I arrived, I bumped into Demetri and he seemed to be taken by me.
Even after knowing I already have a mate.
Flashback
Mmm feeding feels great, specially if its by annoying humans who wouldn't shut up about their newest dress, I think as I'm walking back to my room.
"If it isn't our newest addition, la bellisima Seraphina" I heard a seductive, italian accent voice.
I turned and saw a tall, blonde vampire smirking down at me.
Ughh I only like it when Alec speaks italian to me, no one else.
"Well you seem to know my name,come ti chiami?" (what is your name) I ask with a grin, he's not the only multilingual.
His smirk widens, "My, not only beautiful but also talented, my name is Demetri"
Demetri? As in the Volturi's tracker? How annoying, it's going to be hard to avoid this guy.
"Grazie for the compliment, but keep your comments to yourself" I say with a cold smile.
I hope he catches the hint but instead he laughs "Are you also a mind reader? Because that's the only way I can keep my thoughts to myself" he winks.
Ugh can he not.
"You're wasting your breath, I already have a mate"
His smirk falls, he grimaces "Can someone actually deserve you, mia cara?" (My dear)
You don't that's for sure.
"I'm very happy with Alec" I smile.
His eyes widen and he actually steps back from the surprise.
"A-alec as in Jane's brother?"
Oh? It seems I'm not the only one with the infamous reputation.
"That's right" a sly grin on my face as this should scare him off.
He huffs, "Alec will only contain your flame"
"He doesn't contain it, he lights it up even more" and with that said, I walk away, my heels clicking loudly in the hallway.
Flashback end
I thought that after my direct rejection, he will back off but he didn't, if anything he just approached me when I was alone.
Ugh it would have been better if he had feared me.
I ran vampire speed to save me from his flowery words.
I saw Alec and approached him, Demetri followed but stayed in a respectable distance away, unlike a few minutes ago.
I think Demetri fears Alec but not enough to actually stay away from me.
Alec brightens when he sees me but glowers when he sees Demetri.
Alec hasn't been there when Demetri is flirting with me but he has noticed that he sometimes follows behind me and is suspicious of him.
"Hello, il mio amore.(my love) How was your day?" Alec asks me.
"It was good, i was just chatting with Jane a few moments ago" I tell him.
His smile widens at hearing that, Alec is very pleased that me and his sister get along.
He then glares through my shoulder (to Demetri is my guess) and grabs me by the waist and looks at me again.
"Since we both have no prior engagements, shall we have a date at the garden?" He asks.
A date? About time you asked!
"That sounds lovely" I say mocking his formal speech.
He grins, and we walk, he still has one hand to my waist and I notice he glares at Demetri, Demetri not looking too happy himself but he avoids his glare.
We arrive to the garden, and he let's go of my waist and instead grabbed my hand.
I smile at the action, it may be small but I find it intimate.
I interlock our fingers together and we walk together in comfortable silence as we look at the beautiful scenery.
"Do you like nature?" he asks me.
"When I was a human I used to be indifferent but afterwards I began to like it" I tell him.
"Really? Being vampire made you appreciate it more?" He asks.
"No, my creator simply loved them so I began to grow fond of them as well" I say with a warm smile, remembering my creator and dearest friend.
"Oh... were you very close with them?" He asked me, curiously.
"Her, and yes, she was very different from me, she was wise, kind, patient and she had a big love for humans" I say the last bit with disgust.
"If you were that close why did you part ways?" Alec asks.
"I didn't want to part ways if it were up to me I would have been with her for eternity, she was like an older sister to me" I say, my voice filled with sadness.
I'm sure if I was human, my eyes would have been teary.
"Did she...?" Alec asked.
"She was killed, yes" I say and close my eyes trying to regain myself.
"I'm sorry, love" he says holding me close.
"It's not your fault" I say.
"If you'd like we can go hunt her killer down and avenge her" Alec says, his eyes narrowing.
I smile darkly, and kiss him in the cheek. "Thank you, Alec but I already took care of him and his family"
He chuckled and smiled at me "Of course you did"
"Who do you think I am?" I grin and put my arms around him.
He nuzzles me and says "The love of my life"
I giggle from his romantic words and kiss him again on the other cheek.
"Thank you for not applying any fire in your lips this time" he says with a coy smile.
I return it, "You welcome, amoure"
His smile widens and he places a kiss on my forehead, making me feel tingly and warm inside.
It seems he applied fire to me this time.
We continue strolling the garden, our hands linked as one.

I thought I had submitted this! Sorry!

This chapter was kind of short, I'll try to make the next one longer.

It was good to see progress between them, slowly knowing more of the other.

Hope you like it!
