Blood, heart, and soul; chapter 2:First Meeting

After a while, the minor shadow(who answered the door) came back, followed by an imp. Trailing behind the imp was Marin, face hidden by the veil and mask. Aiolia turned to look at them with a bored expression, until he caught sight of Marin. His eye brows raised a little in mild surprise. "Aiolos, look! This time they didn't send us a roly poly!" Aiolia exclaimed to his brother. "Well, we won't have to worry that much this year, but take my word for it, sexy and pretty women are the most dangerous women." Aiolos said, surveying Marin with his watchful eyes.

"Really? Is that why you've gone gay?" Aiolia asked, with no hint of embarrassment at all, only simple cluelessness. Upon hearing the question, Aiolos flushed deep red. "That's not my point. I'm not afraid of women, it's just that Saga is so pretty and handsome, I can't help it." "Err....uh, right. Um, what should I do now?" Aiolia asked. Being a vampire with nothing to do just makes him forgetful. "I think you unveil the bride?" Aiolos hinted, with a bit of mockery." Oh yeah..." Aiolia said, a bit stupidly. He hadn't really expected his brother to tell him this, though. He thought his brother would've made some other stupid excuse instead, but this was something he definitely did not expect.

"If you think I'm untrustworthy, then why don't you just boot me out and never bother to accept me as a bride?" Marin spoke out suddenly, eying Aiolos behind her mask. "well, that's because I'm not the one accepts the brides every year, it is my brother, Aiolia, who takes the brides." Aiolos retorted. Never had a single 'bride' retorted or argued with him, but this one...this one DARED to argue. For a brief moment, Aiolos's eye shone with a burning anger. How dare she!?! But a quick glance at his brother's eyes told him this would be one to make him happy, so he said nothing and disregarded the anger as his brother moved to uinveil her.

Aiolia unveiled Marin with happiness, but it was cut short when he looked and saw that there was yet another cover on her face. A solid, silver mask. "Awww... what a big disappointment." Aiolia said, with a bit of a whine. "You're not very smart for a vampire, are you?" Marin said, her tone firm and simply announcing the fact that he was not welcome encounter to her. "Oh, can't you be a bit more friendly?" Aiolia asked, still playful. "No." was all she replied, strict and firm. "Hmph. But don't think giving that tough attitude will make me free you. You're staying here, forever...until you submit to me." Aiolia said, his tone less friendly, edged with a bit of warning. "well guess what? You can keep me here forever, I'll NEVER sully as anyone's wife, especially a vampire's. Don't you go expecting me to be obedient and to be pleasuring you whenever you feel like it, because that's the last thing I'll ever do." Marin replied, with more firmness and control in her voice, while it still sounded pleasant and calm. "We'll just see, uh....what's your name? ''" Aiolia asked, with a bit of question in his voice. He just realized he never knew her name. Marin could nearly laugh at the vampire's own inexperience in making a threat. But she didn't as so not to give him any thoughts that he had a bit of advantage. "Listen up, then. And listen up good. My name is MARIN. Ma-rin." Marin replied, pronounciating every synonym in her voice loud and clear, as if Aiolia was a toddler.

Aiolias, embarrassed by the fact, only muttered something inaudible as he turned and headed upstairs. Marin didn't want to, but she still needed to find out where she can lodge herself until she was, as the villagers assumed, devoured. So mind made up, she went upstairs with him. "And why are you following me?" Aiolia asked, with a bit of false annoyance laced his voice. As much as he hated to admit it, he got really attached to her the first time she spoke out, and he just felt real smug that she had to turn to him, for whatever her reason. "Well, obviously I need to know which bedroom is mine."Marin retorted with just as much annoyance. Aiolia gave an uncharacteristic snort. "Your bedroom? You have no bedroom. You sleep with me." Aiolia said smugly, with a smug smile glued to his face. Hah, put up a tough act, will you? 'Well then, I guess I'll find another vacant room to sleep in tonight. This is a big castle, I'm sure there are more than just two rooms." Marin replied, still calm and firm. Act smug, huh? Well this ought to break you.

Nekobi; well, what do anyone of you think?

Aiolia: I think it's just mean!!! Why should she be rebellious!!? You should have made her give herself willingly!!

Marin: Omg, Aiolia, I never knew youlusted so much. [inches away from him]

Aiolia: No! Marin! Sweetheart!! Don't go!! Don't hate me!!

Marin: [long gone]
