She smelt a familiar scent.

Kamaru…

She smiled; she had at least an hour till sunrise.

She detoured to the left, glided to the ground, and landed in a tree. She waited for her pray to walk closer. His scent was different though, it smelt demon, dog demon…

Damnit Ryann…what the hell have you gotten us into?

"Hello," a smooth voice greeted her.

She looked up and found a man or demon rather. He was tall with long blond hair streaked with black in a loose braid. His eyes were playfully dangerous ice green that sent chills down other's spines, and he had pointed ears. He had a white fighting kimono with a broad sword dangling at his hip. In other words, totally sexy in Kariluna's eyes.

"Why hello there," she greeted back smiling, bearing her fangs.

Chapter 7: Rough Touch

"Have you seen a woman named Ryann?" the stranger asked. The full moon eerily lit his face up, making it seem like his very light skin glowed. He smiled with almost falsely white teeth.

The oak Kariluna was in moaned as she swung from the branch to the ground. "Nope, I never heard of a woman named Ryann. I don't associate with mortals too often," she said looking down at the ground, acting bored.

"I suppose you've never heard of a man named Kamaru either then…"

She looked up at him quickly but keeping an even tone, "No, not unless he was a demon in disguise." She laughed it off.

It was the man's turn to look a bit nervous but it just flashed across his expression. "No he works at the castle and he asked me to look out for her. It's his girlfriend and she's disappeared."

Must be why he smells like him.

" Aww how sweet of him. Why didn't he get his own lazy ass out here and look for her himself?" she asked contemptuously.

"He is." The stranger moved closer and closer over the period of conversation and Kariluna just realized it.

She held her ground even though every instinct was telling her to back up. "Then why are you looking? I heard most full blood dog demons hate humans."

He laughed, continuing to step towards her, "I just thought it was a good cause. I mean true love and all that crap."

She let out a bitter laugh, "True love, don't make me laugh. He probably just want ass."

He let out a bark of laughter,"Touché ms…"

"Kariluna."

The demon took one final step towards her finally knocking her over into the trunk of the large oak that she was in.

"I'm Miromaru."

She felt his breath on her forehead. Kariluna smiled mischievously. This is how he wanted to play eh?

Kariluna pressed herself up against him, surprising Miromaru. "Nice to meet you Miromaru."

"Nice to meet you too Ms. Kariluna." She felt the vibrations of his voice against her body.

God damned higher senses

She looked up at him, seductively, invitingly.

He stared down at her, obviously perceiving the message. Miromaru started for the obi, tugging it to let go of its binding hold on Kariluna's silken black kimono.

"Nuh uh, not yet. What would I get out of it in return?" she asked pulling his hands away from the belt.

"Pleasure," he whispered, once again going again for the tie.

"How would I be sure of that?" Pulling his wrist behind his back, caressing his neck with her fangs.

"What do you want?" he asked out stretching his neck, giving more flesh for her fangs to play against.

" Pleasure." She shoved him to the ground. Something was bothering her. He seemed far to in control and relaxed. Kariluna walked around him.

Miromaru watched her as she paced around him. When his prey got to his right shoulder, he slid his arm up her leg, embedded his claws into the tender flesh on her thigh, and pulled her down beside him.

Damnit

She let out a small hiss of pain as she hit the ground. Miromaru bolted up and pushed her down with his hand, placing it right below her chest.

It almost dawn…the hell did I get myself into?

"I intend to get my pleasure, Ms. Kariluna."

"Be my guest."

He rolled on top of her, discarding his kimono top. "Glad we agree."

Kariluna uppercut her claws into his chest making him howl in pain.

"Damn you, " he seethed through his teeth, reaching for his sword.

She kicked him off her, kicked off a tree and flew up into the air, hurdling herself toward the clearing.

How come tonight is the only night I have had to hasten to this place?

Because you used to be able to do as you please.

The sun hit the horizon and she hit the middle of the clearing unconscious.

Yes I know its short but I needed to leave it here for the cliffyness of it all and I have homework to finish :3 bye huns!
