"I hate you. Let me go."
"I thought you loved me?"
"I did. You just ruined it when you killed him."
"Its been a year woman."
"He was my brother."
"If I can't find you for a week I will let you go and not kill anyone that helps you. If I win well you know what happens"
"Deal."
"Will she be ok?" The Battousai asked.
"She in shock. What happened Megumi asked.
"She...she saw me kill. I didn't know she was watching from the door, hell I didn't even know she was awake." He said irritated that he didn't notice this fact. "Besides, the basterd got what he deserved for hitting my little kitten."
"Very well, since I can do nothing to stop you I advise you to try and win over her heart. She is mortal and won't live as long as us in her current condition, and you know she has to accept you fully or she can't become you mate." Megumi said pacing over to her medicine supples.
She got out a big syringe and filled it half way up with some clear like substance.
"Master. I need some of you blood for the Mistress it will help her get over her shock." She asked very meekly.
Normally she probable wouldn't have said it that way, but this was a fifth level vampire not to mention the master vampire. And has more control over the country of Japan than the damn government. He practically ruled it. Megumi was hard-headed but she wasn't a fool. She still remembered the time Sano had tick him off. Lets just say Sano was unconscious for a week, than would not say a single word for a month.
"Very well, take what you need. I don't want to lose her this time." The Battousai said pulling his sleeve up so Megumi could take some of his blood.
Once Megumi had taken the sample, she mixed it with the clear substance within the syringe, than she injected it into Kaoru's bloodstream.
"She should be okay in about an hour, but I advise you to make her think that what she saw was a dream. If she believes it was a dream she may be more inclined to trust you." She said putting her stuff into her bag. "Now I want you to monitor her closely. If she shows any bad reactions to the amount I injected pleas let me know."
With that said she step out of her office and went to he and her husbands quarters on the other side of the mansion . Grumbling about moving her office closer to her suite before she was out of ear shot for the Battousai.
Battousai watched Kaoru as she slept peacefully. He took one long look before nodding his head as if he was deciding on a thought.
He could sense the sun rising, but he did not worry. You see there are five levels of vampires in the hierarchy system. The frist level is the lowest level. This level can not go into the sun, and has to drink some kind of blood each night. Level two is little higher up. They still can not go into the sun but they don't have to drink blood every night. Level three is the start of the day walkers. At level three they have to drink blood once a day, and the can't be out when the sun rises, noon, or sunset. Level four can not be in the sun at noon. They don't have to drink blood but every so often. The last and final level is level five if you are not sired or born a day walker you can not reach this level. In this level the sun does not affect you nor does bloodlust although most like to drink blood anyway.
An hour passed quickly, and Kaoru began to stir. She sat up and took in her surroundings. She felt the silk slid down her leg, and she gave a delightful shiver. Her nerves became more sensitive than she ever thought possible.
"Where am I?" She thought aloud.
She gave a sharp intake of breath when she felt two fingers brush lightly up and down her arm followed by a deep silky voice. "Your in the hospital wing of my mansion you passed out shortly after seeing me. By the way my name is Kenshin, what's yours?"
"My names Kaoru, what's yours?"
"Its Kenshin."
"Your names pretty. It means 'Heart of the Sword' I like swords."
"Do you know how to use one?"
"Yes, my daddy's teaching me."
"Oh, its Kaoru." Kaoru said. She really didn't trust this man but she felt pulled to him. She was scared as she had this weird coppery after taste in the back of her mouth. If she didn't know any better she would say she tasted blood.
"Well Kaoru, I sorry I can't let you leave, but I can probable inform your parents." Kenshin stated making her think he was sincere, he wasn't. He wasn't gonna inform her parents of any thing, but she would never know that. He was going to win her heart soul and mind if it was the last thing he did.
"Don't have any..." Kaoru mumbled.
"What did you say I couldn't quite hear you?" Kenshin asked, even though he caught 'don't' and 'any'.
"I said I don't have any parents." Kaoru said downcast. "I live in a foster home."
On the outside Kenshin looked sympathetic, but on the inside he was far from it. She was alone with no one to care for her. It made it so easy to take over her life. No one would look for an orphan, especially a runaway. In his mind he grinned as he thought of how easy it would be to make her fall for him now that no one held her back.
He turned away and decided it would be easier to for her to deal with him if his eyes weren't amber. So he concentrated until they turned violet. He put on a bid fake ruroni smile and turned to face her.
"Well I am truly sorry that I am. Perhaps you would like a walk around the estate." Kenshin suggested.
"That actually doesn't sound to bad." Kaoru said as she got out of bed.
She felt the air brush against her skin causing her to shiver at the sensations. It was like her skin was super sensitive, and she could smell a very foul odor. It was driving her up the wall what the hell was wrong with her.
"Then let us go." Kenshin said holding his hand out for her to take.
Days past without Kaoru remembering anything, but Kenshin knew that it wouldn't last. The only thing keeping her from remembering was his blood. His blood was over powering her short term memory causing her to forget 'The Incident' as it had been dubbed.
One thing he absolutely loved about his blood being in her system was that it heightened her senses. He loved the way she would shiver when he lightly ran his finger across a part of her body on cough purpose cough accident. He loved the way her noes would wrinkle in distaste whenever she found a smell she did not like, but most of all he loved the way she responded to him, his touches, his smell. He smelled heavenly in most minds, but he thought Kaoru smelt divine. Jasmine and a hint of sugar.
Right now they were enjoying a picnic under a blooming sakura tree, weird thing was though, it was the middle of winter. Kaoru seemed to gaze out into the vastness of the estate ignoring him. He didn't mind 'too' much, 'but' he wish she would devote all her attention to him. He vowed someday she would
Kenshin could tell his blood effect was wearing off. He didn't dare try to reapply it, because to much of it could cause her to come depended on his blood and he didn't want that. At least not yet.
When she became his mate though he'd be the only one she would drink from. Oh he just couldn't wait, he could imagine the night he would take her as his mate. He'd run his finger through her long black silky hair, while kissing her senseless, nibbling on her neck right before bitting down as she climaxed around him, taking her lives blood and replacing it with his.
And they have many children.
Children.
Oh, how he craved for a child. He had tried in Kaoru's past lives to get her pregnant, but because she wasn't a willing mate she would not bare him any children. Contrary to popular belief vampires can have children, if your class three and up.
There was one lifetime when Kaoru gave her self to him willingly. She bore him a child, the child was a stillborn and Kaoru had died in childbirth because she wasn't a vampire. That was their first lifetime together.
When he first saw her he thought her and angle of darkness, sweat and blood caked her body and short black hair shined in the moon light. She had just killed a dozen men. But she wasn't a goddess just a mortal woman who captured his black dead heart.
He followed her for days until she came to a clearing and called him out. He didn't know she had sensed him, but she had. And...she let him follow her. He wanted her right then and there and she let him, although he was kinda disappointed she was not a virgin. When she had die he felt a snap and knew she was his soulmate.
So when she died, he waited for the line that had snapped in her death repair itself, and when it did, he went looking for her reincarnation.
She shifted bringing him out of his thoughts of the past. He looked down only to see his kitten had fallen asleep in his lap. He gently ran his finger through her hair relishing in the feel of it. Softness and the smooth fell of silk gathered in his hand. Her hair felt exquisite in his hand and it smelled even better. Like jasmine.
He gently pick Kaoru up, shifting her so her head rested comfortably against his chest. She molded perfectly against his body. He loved her, yet she would never approach him unless asked. She hardly knew him, and feared him. He could understand her fear, because really her fear wasn't of him per say but of what he could do. She had every right to fear that.
Footsteps pounded heavily behind her running at a set pace. She knew what he was doing. He was trying to scare her in to defeat, but she wouldn't be defeated. She would be free of him if it was the last thing she did. She came to a sudden stop as an idea came to her.
She slowly turned around catching a glimpse of red. She bent down and picked up a stone. It may not stop, but at the very least it would slow him down. She would show him that she was not a plaything!
She threw the stone with all her might were she felt the dark energy the strongest. She herd a solid thump and a yelp a pain she ran even fast pushing her body to and past it limit. Her head was bent down to help her gain momentum, ... when she...ran strait into the chest of the creature she was trying to get away from.
She looked up into red glowing eyes, enlarged fangs, and a large...bump? On his forehead. She couldn't help but to stifle a giggle. Red eye narrowed angrily and she cringed in fear. He grabbed her chin and...
She woke up covered in sweat. Cold sweat. And then it happened, Kaoru remembered what he he did. She was fearful now, but her mind, you know the weird side that thinks with a sick sense of humor, thought 'at least of those weird sensation no longer bother me'. It was true though. She didn't fell sensation as strong as she did a few hours ago.
Kenshin walked through the door carrying a tray of food. His eyes were violet. He looked at her before putting the tray on the bedside table.
"How are you doing today Miss Kaoru?' He asked sounding concerned, but he wasn't not to much any way.
Kaoru narrowed her eyes at his innocent act she knew what he was a lying basterd that's what he was, but she was also very fearful of him, and why the hell was his eyes violet? They are supposed to be amber. He was probably going to kill her, So she asked, "Are you going to kill me?"
The tray hit the ground with a clatter. A dark energy filled the room.
"Fox why are you making me do this?"
"Because I hungry, and its entirely you fault." Megumi replied.
"How is you being hungry my fault?" Sano asked confused.
"Cause, I'm pregnant you idiot." She nearly yelled.
"How long, and then I'll get what ever you what."
"One and a half months."
Sano walked out of the room with a big smile on his face, why wouldn't he. After all he was going to be a father.
