Silver
Chapter 3: Things Aren't Always What They Seem.

Silver worked on her latest project on her computer. She sensed Sevan leaving the house. Jay was still in the house. He made her nervous but she couldn't place why. I guess that's why dad didn't have many allies. There was a darkness about him that she couldn't place. Calling on Evelleion, her demon forged blade she was ready for any assault. The blade rested against her chair in the shadows. She had a feeling she would need it before the night was over.
Jay slowly crept up the stairs being as quiet as possible. Sevan should of never left his mate. Now he will realize his mistake to late. The silver dagger glittered in his hands. Jay was determined to make Silver his or no one's at all. Her father's legend proceeded her here. The higher up's wanted these two killed because they were powerful hunters, but Jay wanted Silver. He was able to slip into her room without a sound.
Silver felt his presence creep up her spine like a chill. Her instincts were telling her to strike. Suppressing them he continued to work. Out of the corner of her eye she saw the glitter of the dagger in the moon light.
What do I look like to you Jay a werewolf?
He started.
How stupid do you think I am? she snarled.
She didn't face him. Her hands flew over the keyboard. Jay raised the dagger to strike her.
Silver couldn't take it so she brought her sword up in an arc and knocked the dagger from his hand. A blood line appeared on his palm. He held his hand and gave her a glare fit to kill.
I could kill you now and no one would care, she growled dangerously.
I'd like to see you try. Your mate is gone.
That means nothing and Sevan isn't my mate.
There was a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
Nor am I interested in you. You people only see my father's image and not me. I am not my father by a long shot.
he sighed, I'm afraid you must die Silver Sparda.
You can try, she said in a tired voice.
Part of her was sick of fighting and wanted rest but she knew she had to bring down those who killed her family. They had to pay.
Get out of here before I kill you, she snarled.
I don't think you will Silver.
Why's that?
She felt magic surround her keeping her in place. Her sword dropped from her numb hands. Inwardly she cursed.
Now you will be mine Silver.
She could see the lust in his eyes.Closing her eyes she knew she had failed her family again. A single tear slid down her face.

Sevan's head jerked up as he felt something was wrong with Silver. He could smell the magic coming from the house. That worried him so he turned around and ran as fast as his long fox legs could carry him. Hang on Silver. He sped up quickly. Something over came Sevan. The chilling blood curling howl echoed through the woods.

Silver felt something that she had never felt before wash through her. Jay was advancing on her slowly removing his clothes on the way. A low growl echoed from behind Jay. Jay just smirked thinking Silver was trying to throw her voice to scare him.
Jay this is the end for you.
What makes you think that my love?
Meet my mate.
Turning he saw an enraged fox demon. The fox demon's eyes glowed red. His ears were laid back in anger. Snarling the fox leapt forward. The two fought it out until only the white fox stood. There was blood all over him not all of it was Jay's. There were several cuts on his body. Jay lay in pieces all over the ground. Blood splatters were all over the walls.
Silver was released from her bonds and sank to the ground. She sighed in relief and rubbed her wrists. Sevan stood there growling dangerously. He was still wracked with blood lust. They stared at one another. She reached a hand out and he snapped at it.
she asked curiously.
The fox only growled dangerously. His tail was the only movement she saw. Shaking her head she stood up.
If your going to be an ass I'm going to bed in another room.
She gathered her small bag and her lap top and moved towards the door. Evelleion vanished as she moved away. The white fox moved to stand in her way growling.
Get out of my way Sevan.
He growled and that was her only warning. She threw her stuff on the bed as Sevan lunged for her. They rolled on the ground as they fought. Silver was able to kick him back but he leapt on her again. There was a strange smell in the air and it was making her dizzy. Silver kicked at Sevan hoping to dislodge this enraged fox demon.
she breathed.
She saw him going for her throat so she threw up her arm to defend herself. The fox sank his teeth into her forearm. She bit back a scream of pain. Sevan tasted Silver's blood and that brought him back. The blood red eyes returned to their normal blue. He let her go. Slowly he backed up. His tail was tucked in between his legs. She slowly got up and moved towards him.

He looked at the carnage and her bleeding arm and bolted towards his room. Silver quickly followed behind him. She heard the shower running. She slowly entered his room. There was a trail of blood leading towards the bathroom. The paw prints turned to human foot prints.
Sevan what happened?
Go to another room Silver.
Sevan I want to know what happened in there. I can't be your partner in this if I can't trust you.
Silver just go please.
No Sevan.
She heard him shift in the shower. Steeling herself she was determined to know what was going on. The door opened with ease as she pushed on it. There was steam filling the room. Her senses were doused lightly as she felt the weight of the heat press upon her.

She felt something wet press against her back. Sevan wrapped his arms around her pulling her against him.
I want you Silver, he breathed into her ear.
A pleasant shiver ran up her spine.

Sevan was shaking, and he wanted her. Knowing full well that he couldn't.
Get out of here Silver before I loose control again making you my mate.
Is that a bad thing? she whispered huskily.
For this mission it is, he growled.
He was loosing his grip on reality. Her blood was heavy in the air. Her hand traced a scar on his arm. Sevan felt a pleasant shiver run through him making his resolve weaker. There was a scent in the air beside her blood that was making it hard to deny his wanting her.
Silver for the love of God get out of here.
You were hurt damn it I wanted to help.
You can help me by leaving.
Silver had finally had it. She elbowed Sevan in the ribs and flipped him over. Landing easily on his stomach she pinned his wrists to the ground above his head.
Now you either let me help you or your going to regret it.
Silver if you allow me to take you I'll hate myself until the day I die.
You wanted this damn it Blade.
They both started at that name. Sevan used her confusion to his advantage he flipped them over and pinned Silver's wrist above her head.
Sevan why did I just call you Blade?
He let her go and got up. She sat up and studied his body. His body was muscled but not heavily. He had a trim waist. His body was beautiful to her. Slowly rising to her feet she advanced on him.
Why did I call you Blade? she asked again.
Silver I am Blade.
She was taken aback. A wolf she trusted with her life was truly a fox demon. That made her head spin.
How dare you? she snarled.
I warned you.
She snorted.
I guess that's why your boss sent you.
He doesn't know I've been watching out for you for as long as I have.
Sevan wrapped a towel around himself.
Why did you...
Because I fell for you the first time I saw you. Your father caught me and demanded I take care of you.
Doing what?
Watching you. Me asked me why I was and I told him, I watch her because I love her'. Demons tend to know their true mates at first sight.
A her blush deepened. The humidity in the room was making her feel like she was on fire.

Yes. Silver? You know my secret what are you going to do about it?
Be your mate.

Sevan I felt drawn to Blade in a way that I shouldn't of felt for the wolf. When you walked onto the scene I felt the same connection to you as I had for Blade. That never vanished Sevan.
She walked forward so that she was standing right in front of him. Reaching up she placed her hands on his face and brought his face down so she could kiss him. His arms wrapped around her waist and he brought her closer to him. They shared Silver's first real kiss. Sevan picked Silver up when they broke for air.
Are you sure you want this Silver?
Yes, mate.
Your father would kill me now if he were still alive.
No he wouldn't.
Why's that?
I love you.
Silver... I love you too.
Then show me you love me.
He nipped at her neck. They moved towards the bed where they lost themselves in their love for one another.
Silver slept soundly with her head resting on Sevan's chest. Her small form was dwarfed by his bigger form. His finger ran over the mark on her neck. He had bitten her to make sure any demon that tried to take her knew she was his. Sevan smiled at this he could still hear her screaming his name out.
For some reason Silver whimpered in her sleep. She must be dreaming. he thought.


Sevan was taken aback. She must be dreaming of the night her father and mother died. She was shaking uncontrollably. He remembered that night vividly.

Flashback

Blade laid down beside Silver's bed getting ready to sleep. He had this uneasy feeling as if something was wrong with Silver. Deciding to sleep beside her instead he leapt up to see her shaking. Her eyes were glazed over as if she were in a trance. He nudged her. Shaking her head she snapped out of it.
Blade Mom and Dad need us.
She struggled to get out of the bed. In minutes she was dressed ready to fight. Running down the steps right into the weapons room. Her hand went strait for her guns that her father had made for her. Her guns Obsidian and Silver were holstered. Quickly she placed two daggers on her person one in her boot and the other in her coat. She was ready now.
Blade let out a fierce howl. The pair ran as fast as they could towards where Dante was. The wolf could smell Dante and Trish's blood. Trish was dead already and Dante was near to it. They arrived on the scene to late. Dante was drenched in his own blood and the devil was still able to battle.
Dante felt Silver's presence and he tensed. He couldn't fail now. With a desperate attempt to protect his daughter he lunged forward with Alastor ready to attack. The devil swatted him back having caught Silver's scent.
Silver get out of here!! Dante screamed.

Silver couldn't move she saw her mother's prone dead body beside her father, and she somehow knew he'd join her soon. The devil was barreling towards her. Fear was gripping Silver as if there was no tomorrow. Blade was to slow in trying to get to her. Suddenly Rebellion slide through the devil's back and through the front. The devil ripped out the blade.Blood was dripping from the corner of the devil's mouth.
This isn't over Dante. I will have my prize, the devil snarled.
The devil vanished from sight. Silver rushed for her father. She held him in her arms. Blood was pooling rapidly around his body.
Silver be careful, he rasped.
I love you dad don't go! she cried.
Sorry Silver, but I go to join my father and mother. Take this and may it protect you better than I could.
He put the amulet over her neck and with a sad smile Dante slipped into death.
she screamed into the stilled night.
Suddenly the rain began to fall. It took days for Silver to move her stuff to a new house. She placed her parents bodies inside of Devil May Cry together and set the place a blaze.
Mark this day as a day of retribution... Those who are responsible will pay.
Blade howled in sadness at the loss of his friends.

End Flashback...

Silver had been distant and uncaring after that day, but she had taken up her father's duties as a devil slayer. The people that hired her were always asking about her parents, and he saw the hurt every time they asked her about it. He had wanted to comfort her in his true state, but he couldn't until now.
Sevan winced as he felt her nails dig into his arm. For once he was glad she wasn't a demon.
Silver baby you have to get up.

I'm here for you, always.
I know.
She got up.
Where are you going?
We still have a hunt to complete Sevan.
he said with a smirk.
He got up and they took a shower together to get all the blood off of them. They chanced into their hunting outfits read to go.

(okay there it is... I know I did yet another number on Dante's character. But please don't chew me out... I had to make it that way in order for the story to work out.)
