A vampires forbidden love ch.16

Mamoru POV

When we got back up to our room it felt like so much had happened. Usagi went to take a shower as I sat on the bed in contemplation of everything that had happened. There was a lot of stuff going on and a lot that had happened. Now that I had actually had the chance to sit down and let some of the feelings and images from the blood in more I took another focal point and saw how much our elder loved his mate.

How she made him feel complete. How she rounded out the rough edges of his personality and showed him that family was possible. It gave me a chance to calm down from the earlier emotions of what we saw and heard Emon do and what he wanted to do. Through his father's eyes I saw no fault in them. He tried his best and even more than what most parents these days would do.

There was something that I struggled with that pulled me away from the positive imagery of the love they shared. Emon's face when Usagi was mentioned as being the leader of this coven. He was genuinely both jealous and angry and wants her to die. I tried to put myself in his place mentally to figure out how someone could be so evil to their core but I was unable to. I just didn't have it in me to understand that negative thinking. To understand the psychology is one thing, to understand the man himself was another.

He wanted his father to accept his being an evil person regardless of who got in the way. He wanted his father to condone whatever he did to anyone and wanted to control more than he would ever be able to. He wasn't able to let go of that childish mentality and turned it into a full blown obsession that was driving him mad with it. Now my mate, my Usagi was directly in his warpath of vengeance.

I had looked over at her in the control room as we watched the camera's record the unfolding scene and saw her expression turn from understanding to disbelief to wishing that she didn't have to do this. It was truly in her to kill someone but knowing what he had done, what he planned to do she would do what she had to do. She would kill him to protect those that she loved and cared for.

Even if it meant it was till her last breath. I knew she wouldn't die on me but there was that tinge of doubt that entered my mind and his own unpredictable nature when it came to his anger and emotions towards her. I mean look at our elder now. He's just now back up and running from his little run in with Emon. That prick had tried to murder his own father and now was after her. He wanted to break her down so that she would be vulnerable for an attack. I felt like I was repeating the same facts to myself but I wanted it to sink in.

My mate was at the top of this vampires death list and he even got the jump on one of the most powerful vampires in existence. There was a reason why Chikao had her take some of his blood before the fight. It was for her own protection and ours together. Which was why our elder had me take his blood. To protect her in a way that against what was coming up would be enough, hopefully, to stop the oncoming threat. I sighed as I focused on what I wanted to do right now which was take a few moments with my mate.

Having anyone really but that dick talk about her that way and NOT being able to smash my fist into his face or rip his heart out had my blood really pumping. I wanted to wreck the room but that would be pointless. Plus I liked our room I was just frustrated by what he wanted to do to my mate. She was too good of a person to be on the death wish list of this psychopath. She had her choices that she could have made regarding me.

She could have done so much to me and yet she did so much for me. I could never truly repay her for everything that's happened. So to hear that from Emon was…it made me want to rip his throat out. I needed a way to deal with these energies I was feeling. I wanted to channel my energy into something…constructive. Instead of deciding to smash my hand through a wall which wouldn't really do me or anyone any good I decided to do something positive with my energy reserves.

Waiting till the fight would only stress me out more especially the waiting. It would drive me crazy and possibly have me act to early before it was necessary and cost us time or possibly worse. No I had to be logical about this and the first thing that came to mind to calm me down was Usagi. Her beauty and love that transcended over me like a warm blanket at night. If I gave us both something positive and beautiful for us both to look forward to when we got back we had that much more motivation to succeed.

Not that we needed it but we needed each other right now. I needed her right now. I stood up as I still heard the shower going on. I saw the steam begin to leave out the door as I opened it up. She was humming a soothing tune that I didn't know the words to but felt lured in just the same. I stripped off my shirt and other clothing as I walked inside. Nude as the day I was born I stepped foot into the shower.

While she wasn't shocked by my entry she peaked over her shoulder at me through her long blonde hair. Hair that was currently cascading down her back like a rich golden looking blanket of liquid silk. Her arm moved as she turned giving me a visible peak at her breast and nipple. My length stirred at my hip as I moved behind her to envelope her in my arms. She accepted the warming embrace as I felt her warm wet skin touch mine.

My whole frame getting drenched in the running hot warm water as I bent my head forward and into the crook of her neck. "We're going to beat this." she tells me. Her voice steady and sure. I don't know where she got the confidence from but it gave me more confidence, "I know." I responded before grabbing a luffa and pouring some body wash onto it. Getting it nice and lathered up I washed her body with it. First with her backside as I gently traced the contours of her form.

Her back with the bone ridges as it slumped at the crest of her ass, her perfectly shaped, battle hardened ass before dropping down to wash at the backs of her legs. A tiny moan emanating from her mouth at the action. I didn't dare touch her just yet. I wanted to draw this out just a little bit more. I slowly washed back up her as I went between her legs and teased her skin along there at the same time before gently turning her around.

Her big blue eyes looked up at me as I leaned down and gently kissed her. One that was tender and full of promise as I washed her front down to. Starting to get more vocal I gently spread her legs wider with my own legs as I turned her to be against the wall. I kissed her deeply as I brushed the luffa across her chest, grazing her nipples with agonizing slowness making her whimper a little before rubbing it down her form towards her center.

The water that trickled past it only made me want to taste her but I wanted to tease us both first, to enjoy this just a little bit longer. "Mamo…" her voice was low and soft. No demand, no plea just simply to connect. I saw her face as she glanced down at me as I looked up at her. My fingers rubbed the luffa down her legs before dropping it. Laying forgotten somewhere on the shower floor as I slowly rose back up.

It wasn't till my fingers began to toy with her warm heated center that my other hand slayed itself across the surface of her belly. Her smooth taut stomach. I leaned forward and kissed it then her belly button. Her hand touched my wet hair and wove her fingers through it as I thought about what would come next. After all I would be filling this stomach of hers up in the near future…the very one that Emon was threatening to take away from me.

My eyes light up at the thought. The vampirism coming out strongly now as it wanted to be unleashed in some form or another. My previous anger towards that bastard threatening to return and ruin this precious moment with her only to be calmed down by her soothing touch. The beast within while not gone was satisfied that its mate was right there with him. I could see the light in her eyes as well calming every part of the anger in me that had threatened to return. I sighed and relished in the feel of her in my arms.

"I'm right here." As if she already knew ones of my deepest darkest fears. "And I'm not going anywhere." Her words spoken so lowly, so clearly making me feel at home as I always did with her. The water hide any tearful traces of crying had I cried at all as I stood up and pulled her legs up to either side of my hips and pushed forward. My cock finding its way into her heated core without preamble.

Usagi POV

I held onto him with care as I felt caressed within his hold and wrapped my legs more steadfast around his waist preventing his absence from my body. I smiled as he began the slow process of thrusting into me. It was like heaven to have him within me. Stretching me out to my fullest points as I whimpered out from my muscles being stretched so pleasingly so. Feeling so full of him as he slowly pushed in and out of me.

We barely spoke a word as he pushed in repeatedly, as if slowly marking me. Not that he hadn't already. I still have visible marks on me if I wore only a tank top and no pants around. The bite at my rear was interesting, arousing and only a little bit painful at the time and oh so worth it in the end. He bent his head in towards my neck and nipped playfully at the skin there. His length pressing more insistently into me as he sheathed himself deeper and deeper, over and over into my heated cavern.

I tightened my walls around him as he continued forward. His hands gripping me with near bruising force as I held on just as tightly as he was. His length seemed to thicken within me as I pressed my walls more tightly around him. I glanced down and saw his eyes looking up at me, waiting to see what reaction he could elicit next from his thrumming member. I smiled just a bit as I clenched down hard and made him lose focus for a moment before he looked back up at me, as if he was desperate not to lose any form of connection with me.

His eyes speaking so many words I couldn't read them all within his dark blue depths. I could only read love, passion, lust, want and need as the rest began to blur between the lines as his thrusts began to grow even stronger than before. Not by a lot but by just the smallest bites as I reached further back and scratched a trail of wet heat up his back. It elicited a growl of pleasure and need that went far deeper than just sex.

Mating, something that even went deeper than making love. It was a notion that you were connected in the soul now to. His vocals making it obvious what he wanted for us both to feel and share and I honestly couldn't agree more. I looked down and saw his vampirism coming out in more fully now. His teeth beginning to lengthen as he needed to let go and right now so did I as he pulled my left leg up and over his right shoulder and sunk in even deeper into my hot wetness, "Oh Mamo!" was all I could get out.

My own eyes light up further as I compressed my own muscles in that much harder than before around him. He grunted from the movement as his hands reached up to the sides of the shower wall and slammed his palms against it hard enough to make the tile crack under the pressure he was exerting on it. The spider cracks in the tile were forming against his palms and threatened to cut his fingers in the smallest of ways yet the smallest cuts he endured didn't even come close to deterring him from this endeavor.

If anything he thrust more deeply and strongly into me as a result. His eyes turning darker upon the furthering impacts of his movements. He felt thicker than before, if that was even possible, and was riding me hard. Had I been purely human my hips surely would have broken at the sheer intensity at which our rate, depth and speed were going at. Climbing higher and higher on that cliff with no reason nor will to return only to fall over together.

His hips thrusting into me that much harder, his sped increasing in its intensity as we barely said anything. Groans and grunts of approval were all that existed or needed to exist as we mated on a level more primal than before. I felt things shift and change as I rose up, climbing that peak and felt his ridged length spearing me now. The heat from it making me feel like I was about to combust as he grunted his own pleasure from the act. "Mamo!" I cried out, needing to feel him in his entirety.

"Usa!" he cried out as I felt him slam into me, once, twice, three…four more times, deep hard grinding strokes that make me feel like I was actually in heaven as I came and felt his own seed pouring into me. Filling me up. It seemed to last even longer than usual as he kept pumping himself into me. He let my leg down after a few minutes. The hot water now cooling down as was our own reliefs.

Mamoru then turned the faucet off, reached out and grabbed a towel to wrap around me and picked me up bridal style to escort me out. I was too sated to care and took the kind gesture for what it was as he put us in bed together. He reached over and set the alarm on his phone to get us up in a little while so we could be battle ready with a well-rested sleep under our belts…so to speak anyways.

When we woke which seemed like a really long cat nap was only a few hours, it still had the added benefit of making us feel well rested and ready to take on the mission coming up. We got ready and went down stairs to see everyone and part of the team prepping up. Guns were being holstered, knives were being sheathed, and the specially made bullets with silver were also being clipped onto the sides of the vampire guards going in. I wore my black body suit that I normally used for battles such as this.

It made it easier to move around in while the leather corset I wore on top worked well to stash any parchment or anything else small that came in handy to grab up. It would always serve me well as I put another set of knives into my boots. As I looked up Minako came up to me with Rei in tow along with two men behind them. They looked familiar, but I couldn't readily place their faces. "This is Malachite and Jadeite." She introduced.

I nodded my hello as they nodded back politely. "Their going to be guarding us from spotter positions further outside the property to make sure no other pack comes our way when we breach the inside." I nodded at the good idea. A protective barrier to prevent and alert us to any additional foes that may come our way while we were busy on the inside. Plus, I trusted Minako's judgement and knew she wouldn't have let someone in on this unless they could keep it under wraps themselves.

"Emon knows of us…" she indicated her and Rei, "Presumably but definitely not of them." She stated. I agreed, "Excellent. You good fighters if the occasion calls for it?" I asked since they were just being asked to do sharp shooting. Malachite answered first, "I'm not her second in command for nothing." He looked to a slightly blushing Minako who sent him a small glare to keep his mouth shut.

I smiled, now I knew what Kitiara meant with her earlier words. Minako had in fact fallen for someone in a technical below her station position but being that he actually got her to blush I was going to say it was a definite positive thing. "Good to know. We need to be sure that we have everyone needed that can be counted on in a pinch." I agreed, letting the golden opportunity slid by as we had other things to decide on. I could tell Minako was grateful I let it go if only for a little while as she gave a tight smile.

That's when Jadeite spoke up, "I'm a battle strategist and have formulated back up scenarios for multiple occasion calls. I've been doing it for decades at our coven." I looked to him and asked, "And the current breach scenario?" I asked, a demonstration of sorts if you will. "Your current scenario has a 70% success scenario but the lycans working with the vampire AND the elder that currently resides there within gives it a slight unprecedented 20% unknown calibration to work with." I appreciated the honesty even as Rei sent him a tiny glare.

"The elder is an ass and so is Emon with his holier than thou attitude." She countered as she crossed her arms. He smiled at her nearly in a condescending but polite manner, "Personalities aside…" he started, "Your talking about one of the oldest of elders and another much older elder's last living blood son. That alone gives them an advantage that shouldn't be taken lightly." He finished. "Both have good points, and both are being taken into account." I defused before Rei's temper could flare any higher.

This jadeite seemed to get under skin easily. Much like the other did with Minako just moments before. Once more I had to resist the obvious elephant in the room for more important matters at hand. "Good, 70% is better than below average." I began, but before I could say much more Minako gave me a small vial, "What's this?" I asked her as I examined its odd-looking contents while judging which way to hold it.

"Vervain extract." I took a look at it in its watery appearing contents, "Careful, one touch and it burns your skin. Will go straight through with how powerful it is. While it won't kill Naoyuki since he's so much older than the rest of us and therefore can handle the burn a lot more easily than we could it will sure as hell slow him down enough to be able to neutralize him." I was stunned in a proud moment.

"Excellent." I agreed and for once gave a glimmer of a smile regarding what was happening, "Now be careful with it. That's all that we could get from our contact on such short notice. The plant itself is very rare and hard to come by locally. Plus, the purer the extract is the harder it is to locate in doses larger than that. So, use it wisely, it's a one-shot deal." Minako explained as I held it wondering how we could use it.

"It'll have to be the shot that does the trick. I'm thinking tranquilizer dart that sticks to the skin so he can't easily remove it." I stated. Locating on the desk a tranq dart to fit it into. "Better yet use a thick gauge needle to maximize the amount that pumps in by each second that passes." Malachite suggested as I grabbed for that instead and slipped it inside. "When the needle sticks inside the gauge will pump it in there much faster than a smaller one." I comment. Malachite pursed his lips while Jadeite snickered a little bit.

I thought on it to realize how "Yeah I see the joke in there, but better save it for later." I darted my eyes to Minako on the intimate joke that I had unknowingly till I spoke it came out. She opened her mouth in shock as Jadeite and Rei snorted just a little and giggled as Minako blushed harder, "Just get on with it blondie." She ordered of me but with no real venom behind it. I decided to let it go again and went on with it.

"Follow me." they came in as Makoto stood there next to Mamoru, Soren, our elder and even Chikao with the dozen or so vampires we had for the operation we were about to embark on were down here as well. No one else was allowed down here till this was over and done with. As far as anyone else who normally ventured down here the area was shut down for the next six hour long event to follow. We needed to keep this quiet and though I hated to keep things from the rest of the coven to find this out was a betrayal in a sense of our elders.

We couldn't do that when the very thing we were keeping secret was the very reason we could all live on and not endure the world knowing of us. The vampire soldiers who were in here were sworn to secrecy on the objective and luck would have it they were loyal enough to me to keep this between only those of us down here. I looked in their faces, all of them and found no traces of remorse or regret. This was true loyalty and it didn't come from fear but from respect. This must be what Chikao had been expressing before.

"Alright time to get to it. What's going to happen is the five of us…" I indicate to Mamoru, Rei, Minako, Makoto, and myself, "Will breach in through the back exits." I began, showing them the image Soren had brought down from the control room, "What about the front doors are the guys covering them?" Rei asked, "The front will be covered by you guys…" I indicated to the dozen vampires in the room.

"You all will be in hiding within the trees and scrub nearby with the wolf's bane on you to cover your scent from them." They nodded as they realized that's the scent they smelled in the room we were all occupying was. "That's how he did it." one realized. He was one of the guards that covered the chamber to the counsels meeting room. His loyalty to Chikao was stamped in his brain as was the other guard there.

"When we come in through the back door the heat signatures that Soren will be reading from in here will sense where the lycan's are. Soren you'll direct us on the inside via those heat signatures as you guys remain hidden on the outside." So far everyone sounded like they were with me on this strategy plan. Good it's what I needed as everyone gathered around the table we were at for this.

"When do we make our move?" one of the vampires asked, "When we breach in from behind were going to take out as many lycan's as we can without alerting the rest to the intrusion but eventually they will catch on. Some might even try to flee." I explained, "Do we kill them if they run?" another asked, "They aligned themselves with Emon. It's not something to even think about." Minako threw in with distain in her voice, but he looked to me for assurance, "IF they try to run put a tracker on them." I indicated to a few that we had on hand.

Minako shot her eyes to me as if questioning the decision. I looked to her, "This way we can keep track of the pack if they attempt to relocate and form new packs." I explain as she shrugs, "IF one of our own goes down on the inside, you will come in fully loaded, no holding back. They don't get to take even ONE of us out and live to tell about it. We need to send a message to any other packs in relation out there that we are not to be fucked with."

They nodded in understanding, "When Yamamoro was taken out we lived for a year in peace even with the lycan's that were around. We need to keep that image of being powerful up so that we don't encounter some hard bodied dickhead that thinks he can run his or her game past us. We're vampires for a reason." They nodded once more. As it was no lycan that survived the attack last year boasted anything about taking us on in the slightest. They remained in the shadows and didn't provoke us.

We had lived quiet peacefully doing our jobs since that attack happened so we knew we made a lasting impression on those around us in Japan. "I want to try to get as close to Emon as possible before he realizes what hit him." Minako and the other girls nodded in understanding when Mamoru then said, "We do need to make sure that we are able to at some point separate or make sure Emon and Naoyuki are not fighting together." This straightened a lot of the vampires back up reasonably so.

He was a well-respected elder and now he was next to Emon on the hit list. It was a hard concept to grasp I knew. It didn't change what he had done and been doing all this time though. "I do understand that this part will be a shock, for everyone here…" I turned to look at everyone, "But Naoyuki has aligned himself with our enemy." I expressed as they undoubtedly were stunned by what they had to do.

"I honestly wish he had chosen differently. I can live with him being an ass but I cannot live with his current and past choice to align and HELP Emon. I will be taking Emon out myself but IF you run into Naoyuki yourselves DON'T be caught alone." I warned, "He is by far one of the fastest and strongest vampires out there." I looked over to see that they all would understand, "This wouldn't be a time to test the fates of your existence."

They all knew what I meant though. I wasn't attacking their abilities or strengths rather I was warning them of what Naoyuki was capable of. I had no doubt in my mind that he would try to get under their skin, then dispose of them if he saw fit to. I refused to go into this WITHOUT making sure they were aware of what they were getting themselves into. Soren had already made sure of their involvement earlier asking if they wanted out but no one left.

"IF you are paired with another and spot him do what you can to avoid getting killed while simultaneously keeping on the ropes and try to dose him with this." I pulled up the vial. "It's the only amount of vervain that we have since it's so rare and hard to come by here in Japan. This dose won't be enough to kill him considering how old he is but it will be enough to weaken him that way you can knock him out and bind him with enough time to transport his body…IF you find him. Don't seek him out your primary targets are the lycan's."

They nodded and took the vial as I handed it over to the lead guard. "We would have more but the substance to make it is very hard to come by and this was a last minute deal since we know he's going to try and come after us in a few hours. It's why we need to get the jump on him so that he's caught unawares and is unable to properly defense himself." I tell them. An agreement of several nods were seen.

"I want everyone to be ready to move out in thirty minutes tops. Soren I want you here to quarter back us and no matter what keep your coms open for direction." I order. They nodded mutely and left to finish getting prepped up. I turned to see Chikao and our elder talking and nodded mutely to Mamoru myself that I would be speaking with them while they prepped us. He nodded and left me to it. I walked up to them as I heard them mention Kitiara. The name of that elder bitch left an angry sensation within me.

"What about Kitiara?" I asked them. Unwilling to be left out of this loop. Chikao sighed, "She grows restless in the cell in this coven. We're trying to figure out the best means to transport her to the prison without much resistance." That's when it hit me, the guards were helping us out with Emon and Naoyuki so they had very few options in getting Kitiara to cooperate with them further…elder or not.

"Let me talk with her. I can lure her to the transportation and sedate her." I tell them, "With what? The vervain is needed for Naoyuki if he's found." Our elder asked, "I don't need vervain, I only need this." I grabbed a bit of the wolf's bain nearby, "It may be harmful to werewolves but if enough of a dose is consumed by a vampire it still makes them sick. It'll weaken her." Plus I really wanted to hurt the bitch.

Chikoa looked at me with reserve before he turned to our elder, "What do you think?" he asked him. My elder gave me an approving glance, "I think she's the leader here and is one for a damn good reason." He commented. Giving in his own way his permission. I nod, "I just need the transport prepared and I can lead her there." We had a special bay area in the back of the estate for such occasions.

The transportation vehicle was HEAVILY reinforced and covered in vervain to prevent escaping from any vampire. It was made decades ago when we were able to stock up on the amount of vervain needed to create such a transportation vehicle. It had served us well over the years for prisoner transport of Kitiara's caliber. The metal was at least five inches thick and the engine was given a major upgrade recently to account for the extra weight of the thick metal. Nothing but the best.

I walked down to Kitiara's cell. She was pacing about it like a caged animal waiting to be freed, if only she knew. "Must say I wasn't expecting to see you down here." She stated, a fairly stunned yet curious expression on her face. "Really?" I asked, more stunned that she DIDN'T expect to see me. "Considering that I wouldn't think you'd want to take the risk of agitating an elder." She smirked.

"Not really, in fact I came down here to personally escort you to your new safe quarters." She looked at me with reserved regard. Not buying it really considering our stance with one another on things. "Really?" she questioned. I had to sell this little act to her to get her to agree and walk with me peacefully, "Hai, as much as I'd love to say a slew of personal feelings I'm instead being nice to you. After all this is my duty as the leader." I smiled.

It was when I opened the cell door once I grabbed the keys hanging off the wall, the magnetic keys to easy to glitch considering where the cells were located at within the coven, that she stepped out and allowed her in control smirk to come back on. I hated it with a fiery passion and was now counting down the seconds before I would get to shove her into that vehicle being prepped up right now. It was the only thing holding back my temper from expressing how I truly felt about the entitled bitch.

"Not such a grand feeling is it?" she asked me, her head held high as her lips thinning into a gloating smile. Victorious is how she appeared. Not a hair out of place on her head as she obviously didn't plan to stay in here long. I couldn't wait to pop her bubble. "What?" I retorted back, biting the inside of my cheek as I purposely made a gesture of 'proper showmanship' to escort her. She walked with defined dignity towards the exit of the cell room. I had to resist the urge to roll my eyes as her pompous actions.

"Well Usagi, to have to protect the very elder vampire that was responsible for letting such a monster in to your own coven no less. Showcasing the vulnerability of it." She began, "The very monster that harmed your elder as deeply regretful as that was on my part." she was baiting me with her words. Regretting her actions yes but still baiting me. Looking for a rise out of me. I wondered why and guessed it was due to my defending Minako.

She obviously hadn't liked my defensive position towards the blonde leader of her own coven and probably wasn't used to being derailed. So instead she was being an abnormal bitch to me which I was okay with considering where she was going to be going. She wouldn't be gloating after this anyways. The elder must surely be bored or enjoying the fact that she KNEW I couldn't act out. Fine go ahead see how far you get.

I would definitely make sure I had the last word in this game she was playing. "Professionally speaking this is my duty as the leader of this coven. It's what I was trained to do." I clipped out, feigning slight irritation even though her words did irritate me as I walked her towards the vehicle. She was unaware as it was as the same route that lead to the inside of the coven. Her dress dragging a little bit in the back as I walked with her. Even though a tiny part of me wanted to step on the end of it to trip her for good measure.

"And personally?" she asked. Her eyes gleaming with anything she could use against me. The elder bitch really enjoyed trying to see the suffering in those she felt were beneath her. If I had been Minako I'd have been slapped already. That was for sure. Now I knew it had to be because I have been there for Minako. "Personally, I'm not allowed to divulge considering recent events." I responded. Making sure I look away to let her know she won't be getting a rise out of me for anything.

Not without giving her reason to strike me and me striking her back. She would sense the change in me as far as strength went and I couldn't have that. No risks when it came to exposure on it, that was my promise. "Said you can't be truthful with how you feel and yet I can." Now I wondered what she would say. There was no one else in here and there was still a little bit to walk to get to the transportation vehicle. I had to fill the time up here to avoid being suspicious and what better way than to pet the ego of an elder?

"And what would you like to say?" I asked her even though I was regretting the words as we dipped off towards the other exit to lead her away from the coven and towards the transport awaiting her. especially when I really wanted to say, 'what other crass, cruel thing could you possibly want to say?' "You really have no idea the depth of how much I despise you." She stopped where we were at in the area. The tunnel still nearly a hundred feet from the transport. While it was relatively close we couldn't have it THAT close.

"Not really but I have a feeling your about to humor me." I stated, being a little bit sarcastic with her and unable to help it. "Damon was a rising star in our world before you came along. The prodigal son really." She began. "I even fancied him for a bit. His dashing dark mysterious looks quite delicious as I had begun to pursue him in the professional realm at first. It was a slow seduction I was planning to use on him."

While I had to admit Damon was attractive but his personality and treatment of me killed it with me for all our time together. Then to find out that she had been smitten with him and had wanted him for herself things definitely made more sense. I had a bad feeling about what was to be said and had a big feeling it was primarily targeted towards myself. It wasn't merely my aid towards Minako it was her own jealousy and pride at stake.

"Then he met you." She looked me up and down like she stepped in gum. Her voice that of petty disgust. "The peasant girl with the tragic family lose." I wondered where she was going with this but knew it couldn't be good. "Granted he was the one who took you from your family, but no one cared really." I grit my teeth. "All that mattered was that he added another to his harem. My question is…" she stepped up closer to me.

I resisted the urge to step back from her and faced her dead on. Not giving in to her status even as we came toe to toe. Our heights barely going over the other as our heels were making us neck and neck. "What made you so different from the others that he wanted to be with you more than all of them combined?" she asked me. her eyes looking me over from head to toe. Trying to in a sense compel it out of me.

I avoided looking at her for a moment just enough to break the connection. I was barely able to do so and took that as a gift from the new blood coursing through me. "The only reason even I can come up with for it since he never explained it himself was that he needed to fill a void in his life and for some reason I filled it. I could never understand it then but now I have a better one." I expressed.

"Yet it didn't change the fact that he still treated me like a piece of property. His play thing. A moldable doll to do with as he pleased." I stated and gestured to keep walking. "No, it was more than that." She stated, avoiding walking for a moment. There was a snap of jealousy in her eyes before she covered it up. Perhaps whatever she felt for him was one sided and she wasn't used to that. Especially to a mere peasant girl like me.

"You held some hold over him. I would love to say 'bewitched' him but considering the lack of love and the way you despised him I doubt it was a hold you knew you held." She concluded. I stood there, "In fact I'd go as far as to say you as innocent as they say you are which just makes you all the more sad and depressing to begin with." I furrowed my brows at her in confusion, "Meaning what?" I asked as I gestured her to move again.

She began to move forward as she said, "You believe in love and justice." She then turned on me as we neared the end of the tunnel. The doors were just beyond us as she spun around to face me, "Its pathetic yet you have your whole coven in the belief of it as well. You've made your coven the very weakness that Naoyuki claimed it would become. Yet they still follow you." The doors were opening up and the sooner the better.

"That's one vampires opinion." I remark as she turns to find the armored vehicle, "What's the meaning of this?" She demands as Chikao and our elder are there as well, "To where you will be kept safe…for ALL time." Chikao stated as he grabbed her arm and pushed her up and inside the vehicle. "Sir I beg of you to tell me where I'm going?!" she cried out desperately as a guard put specialized cuffs on her.

Chikao looked to me and nodded. I smiled as she faced me in anger, "You are going where you belong Kitiara…after all until Emon is dead and Naoyuki is put away there is only one place safe enough to handle a vampire of your stature." I smiled and couldn't help it nor cared to help it. I saw the look on her face change to one of rage and panic, "NO you can't - SIR!" she cried out as she was shoved into a seat on the inside.

Unable to resist much with the vervain coated walls keeping her content. "This is the fate you've chosen Kitiara. Vampire prison in the special sectors away from the others is the safest place for you for the rest of your life. For the crimes you've committed against your own." He stated, "But I told you everything I knew!" she pleaded. The once cocky bitch was now a panicky mess of desperation, "We know…" I began as she looked to me.

Anger and disbelief written all over her face, "You played me in that tunnel." She snapped, "Perhaps…" I admitted a bit, "The thing is…in the end…everyone, including those that work at the right-hand side of the devil gets what coming to them. This is the conclusion of the choices you have made…" she looked rightfully devastated, "Be sure to say hello to Naoyuki…when we capture and send him there to."

Her eyes went wide as I watched her get angered and try to scream back at me but in her actions wound up hitting the vervain wall inside and get a pretty bad burn from it. Her eyes light up with the pain from it to, "Now that you can consider retribution for Minako to." while it wasn't it was well deserved as she steamed at me once the doors were locked and sealed on her. "The guards will take her away." My elder said. "Good…we have work to do." I told him as the three of us walked back inside.
