Ch.3 Sweet Serenity
Risika could feel him slowly getting closer and it somewhat frightened her, she pressed on anyway. They soon arrived in Aubreys' usual hunting grounds in New York. They had been hunting for sometime in complete silence when Risika broke it.
"What happened to you last night anyway?"
"What do you mean?" He replied in a squeaky voice.
"How did you get hurt?
"It was Fala. I tried to warn you that night. You still stood and tried to fight her. She had drunk from one of the Vida line. Dominique, the most powerful to be exact." Aubrey said in a weird sort of embarrassed voice.
"So how did you get hurt?" Risika asked once again with a glazed look of interest in her eyes.
Aubrey could see she was enjoying it. So he thought he would humor her. "Well I was walking down a path in the woods two blocks down, when she just out of nowhere jumped at me. She said I had a lesson to learn. I don't know how she got that idea, haven't done anything to her. Anyway, next thing I new I was on the ground and she was tearing at my clothes cutting in with her claws." He stopped and looked at Risika with a sort of trust like he might actually like her. He started to smile with a sort of eye giggle.
What am I doing? How can I think like this? There's gotta be something wrong with me. I never would have thought like this before. He thought while still looking at Risika with a gleam once again.
"Is something wrong?" Risika asked wondering why he was just staring at her.
"No, nope, nothing." He said quickly. He looked at her for a few more seconds then looked away blushing.
Risika then to started to blush, something she hadn't done in a very, vveerryy long time.
What is he doing? Why is he blushing? She thought smiling unconsciously.
Shortly after they spotted a young, drunken, naïve, couple. They decided to act like a couple and play with their prey for a while. They seemed a little energetic and free tonight. They walked up to the other couple hand in hand.
"Hi, are you two just married?" Risika asked her prey.
"Yeah how could you tell?" The female of the couple replied.
"We've been around. Seen a lot of things. And a lot of people." Risika said smiling then turned and looked at Aubrey. They walked around for a long while, Aubrey and Risika making them a little uneasy with every new topic. Almost an hour passed and they were really hungry and ready to feed. They lead them into a dark alley where when the couple couldn't see they would attack.
It took a couple minutes to make the couple believe that this was just a place to hang out. When they decided they didn't trust the alley; Aubrey & Risika had to do something to make them stay so they did something very daring. They started to pretend to make-out.
"Is it working?" Risika thought to Aubrey who was lying there with little strength so he could save the rest of his strength to hunt.
"I did." Aubrey thought back to her. After a moment of silence they decided they were tired of playing. They got up and quickly got their pray and fed. After they were done they looked at each other again and smiled. Risika began blushing. She disappeared to Aubreys' place and waited for him to do the same. It only took a few seconds.
"Why did we come here?" Aubrey asked surprised and a little excited that Risika led him to there.
"Someone was following us and as long as you have these shields they can't come in." Said Risika walking close to Aubrey. She pulled back her hair and let her neck go bare. He knew what she was implying.
"Are you sure?" He asked very surprised and yet anxious to get her blood. He thought it might just be what he was missing. She could feel his longing in the back of her mind and wanted to ease it.
"It's now or never." She said tilting her head and leaving her neck again bare. He bent his head down and his fangs pierced her flesh like a knife to an apple on a very hot, humid summer day. She felt her life once again draining out of her body like that many years ago when she was turned. Aubrey stopped just in time (after maybe a few minutes) to catch her slowly, pushing her hair out of her face he carried her over to bed.
"It's over. You'll be OK. Just rest up." He said laying her on the bed. He tucked her under his blood red silk sheet and deep black quilt. He kissed her cheek slowly and said "I love you."
