Thanks for all those that had reviewed! And for someone's question..I did mess up in the last chapter. I meant for Magnus to give Adrienne the boots, but I didn't pay enough attention. But I fixed it! Yah! Well on with the story!





The night was beautiful as she and all the sons of both Kain and Vorador walked through the gardens.

Kain and Vorador stated that they had to speak to each other in private, and everyone could tell something was wrong by the look on both of the older vampires faces.

And by the time they made their way back to the house, Dumah had a broken nose and a bloody lip and Raziel had a black eye, for not being able to keep their hands to themselves.

Marcus was following close behind Dumah, making sure he wasn't going to try another move on Adrienne. Sebastian was following Raziel for the same reason.

It was really funny to watch Kain's two sons walk up the steps with their head hung down with Vorador's son's walking behind them with murder in their eyes. They had grown to understand that Adrienne was Vorador's and Vorador's alone.

Adrienne stood to the side and allowed for them to go ahead of her inside. She smiled when she looked at Sebastian and Marcus. Sebastian had basically named himself and Marcus her bodyguards. Marcus, though truly, was her best friend acted as if he was her big brother at times.

Marcus smiled at her when he spotted her and put his hand on her shoulder, leading her into the mansion.

"You know you pack quite the punch for someone your size. I never seen anyone hit Dumah AND Raziel."

They both laughed as they watched Faustus point and laugh at Raziel and Dumah who both in turn chased after him. They laughed all the harder as Faustus, Dumah, and Raziel nearly ran Vorador and Kain over as they came out to see what all the noise were about.

Kain just stared after his sons then looked at Rahab.

"They touched Adrienne didn't they?"

Rahab sighed and nodded his head slowly.

Adrienne noticed that Vorador looked ready to rip Dumah's and Raziel's heads off when they came back running through the room after Faustus, who was laughing like a manic.

She smiled and walked over to Vorador, who was busy glaring daggers at the boys to notice her, and kissed his cheek.

Vorador blinked and looked down to see Adrienne smiling up at him. He couldn't help not smiling back at her angelic face. He bent his head and nuzzled the mark on her neck, then after giving the mark a kiss, he stood straight.

Kain raised the soul reaver up in the air as the boys ran by again and they all stopped promptly when they saw it.

Kain snorted and put his sword away and nodded to Vorador to tell them the news.

Vorador, seeing Kain's nod, sighed and took Adrienne's hand while he cleared his throat.

"My children and friends, I'm afraid I have bad news. It seems the Sarafan are getting more open with their persecution of our kind. Many of us have been killed already. Our clans and families aren't safe anymore from the Sarafan." He pulled Adrienne close to him and wrapped his arms around her as he said this," My spies have sent word that they are close to the Drowned Abby, as we all know that's Rahab's territory. Lucky for those vampires which can stand water and can hide. Other's have been less fortunate. I must ask you to warn your clan's and fledglings of this upcoming danger."

Everyone nodded and went in different directions to get to work on warning their clans and children.

Vorador felt Adrienne's gaze on him and he turned his golden eyes down onto her face which was turned up to his.

"Are we in danger Vorador?"

Vorador thought for a moment then shook his head," At the moment we are safe here. But they are taking a great risk to go through Kain's son's territories like they are. They are up to something, the stupid human cattle are always up to one thing or another."

She watched the expression on his face and leaned her head onto his shoulder as he rubbed on her back.

They stayed like this for a few moments then Vorador led her to his rooms, where he sat down in front of a large fire in one of his armchairs.

He pulled her so she came to rest in his lap as he nuzzled and licked the mark on her neck as she smiled.

"Your really proud of that mark aren't you?"

She could feel his teeth against her neck as he smiled.

"Who wouldn't be proud to claim you?" He raised his head and looked down into her eyes.

"I don't know."

He kissed her slowly as he whispered, almost to softly for her to hear.

"I would die for you."
