She pushed more energy into him, trying her best to save him.

"I poisoned myself. I knew she'd bite me." He blinked slowly as the blood flow slowed.

Mia just shook her head, trying to keep him alive.

"Mia!" Quinn raced to her side, grimacing when he saw Isao.

She tried to talk but was growing too weak.

Isao struggled to keep his eyes open. "Love..you."

Quinn growled, his hands covering them both in blue light.

Mia's yellow light vanished, "Love.. too.." She clasped one of Isao's hands and held it tightly.

The vampire's head fell to the side as Quinn took a deep breath.

The Fae gently picked both of them up, then vanished.

Mia tried to stay conscious but soon lost the battle and passed out.

Isao opened his eyes in surprise, seeing the familiar bedroom at the mansion. He slowly turned his head, his breath catching as he saw Mia next to him. He shakily reached out and touched her cheek.

Mia let out a small noise, her eyes weakly opening and looking over.

"My soul.." Isao said softly. "I missed you."

"Missed you too." She said quietly. She coughed slightly, rubbing the bandages around her throat.

He brushed the bandages, tears filling his eyes. "I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault."

"I turned her. I was sure she'd died, but she didn't. And because I screwed up, you almost died.." He dropped his hand, his eyes focused on the blanket.

"I don't blame you." She said softly. "What I don't get is why she waited so long to show herself."

His eyes narrowed. "Good question. Forty years is a long fucking time to wait for revenge."

She nodded and looked thoughtful, "I wonder if it had something to do with me in particular."

He didn't answer, his eyes distant.

She sighed and moved to kiss his cheek.

His lips curled in a smile, then he gave her a look full of overwhelming love. "I so don't deserve you."

She rolled her eyes, "If anything, I don't deserve you." She kissed him gently.

He returned it, one hand tangling itself in her hair as he deepened it.

She smiled when they finally parted, "I love you."

"I love you more." There was a mischievous twinkle in his eye.

She chuckled lightly, pulling him in for another kiss.

He wrapped her in his arms with a content sigh.

There was a knock at the door, then Ryusei's head entered with a panicked look. "Quinn's missing."
