Selene slept for a while and woke to a hand running up her back slowly.
"Hmmm I'm not ready to get up yet." She said softly and she heard V chuckle softly.
"I want you to come meet the rest of my brothers and their females." V said as Selene rolled onto her side and looked up at him.
"I'm still so tired though. And I don't have anything else to wear." She said as V stroked her side.
"It doesn't matter what you're wearing." He shrugged and Selene raised an eyebrow looking up at him.
"The king and Queen will be there, so yes it does matter." She said and V smirked a little.
"I bet you the Queen will be wearing the same thing. Now get up and come downstairs with me." He said pulling back the covers. Grumbling Selene got up and attempted to straighten herself out. V just waited and watched until she was ready then took her hand and led her downstairs. Selene held onto his hand tightly as he led her into the dinning room. There were only four other people sitting there and Selene glanced up to V who sat her down next to him.
"Z you met the other night, that pretty female next to him is Bella his mate. That's Rhage and Mary." V said pointing everyone out and they smiled and nodded to Selene except Z who just took a sip of his drink.
"This is Selene, she's staying with me." V said and other others talked quietly amongst themselves as the meal was served. Selene ate quietly and so did V though as he ate he slid a hand onto her thigh and rubbed softly.
"You going to be okay if I go out tonight?" He asked and Selene glanced up to him.
"I was thinking maybe I would go home tonight." She said and V frowned a little at her.
"What do you mean go home?" He said and Selene shifted a little.
"Let's talk about it later alright?" She said softly and V kept frowning at her for a bit then relaxed and nodded.
"Fine." He mumbled. After the meal they headed back upstairs and Selene sat down on the bed while V started to get changed.
"I don't want to live here, at least not yet." Selene said and V turned to look at her, the shirt he was about to put on still in his hand.
"Why not?" He asked looking at her seriously and Selene took a deep breath.
"We barely know each other, its not that I don't like you, or that I don't want to be with you. I just think…I need it to slow down. I want to go home, see my friends and family and get to know you better." She explained and V rubbed his head a bit.
"You mean you want to…date?" He said and Selene nodded a little.
"I guess you could call it that." She said and V pulled on his shirt turning away. Selene bit her lip unsure of what he was thinking.
"I have a few rules then." He said and Selene raised an eyebrow.
"Tell me what they are, and then I'll tell you if I'll follow them." She said and V turned to look at her.
"First I don't want you feeding from anyone else but me." He said and Selene nodded.
"I can agree to that as long as it goes both ways." She said and V rubbed his head a bit.
"That's no problem. Second if you're going out with friends or family somewhere, I wanna know when and where." He said and Selene thought about that one.
"I'll do my best to keep you updated." She said and V looked like he might argue with that one but he shrugged.
"Twice a week we'll go on dates, it might depend on when I can but lets say twice a week. And I want to talk to you every night even if I don't see you." He said and Selene smiled a little.
"Since I'm supposed to tell you when and where I'm going that should be easy." She said and V looked at her as he moved closer.
"The last rule is kind of two. I don't want you "dating" any other males. And I don't want any other males touching you." He said and Selene nodded a little.
"That's fine; as long as I'm the only female you're dating or touching." She said and V smirked a little as he leaned down and kissed her.
"Oh I don't plan on it, something tells me I'll be hungry enough for you that I won't even notice other females." He said and Selene smiled a little and kissed him.
"So you going to take me home now then?" She asked and V nodded a bit.
"Your clothes were washed and put over here." He showed her and after Selene went into the bathroom to change she took a deep breath. That had gone a lot better then she had expected. Part of her thought V might just lock her up and be done with it, he didn't seem pleased with it but he didn't fight it really either. Coming back out she pulled on her sweater as V strapped on a couple of guns.
"Ready?" He asked and Selene nodded a bit, she took his hand as they walked out to his car. After he opened her door Selene kissed his cheek then got in. She was some what nervous about going home; she wondered what her parents were going to say about everything. V was quiet as he drove towards her parents place and so was Selene; she wasn't sure what to say at this point. They pulled up in front her parents house and Selene sighed a little and leaned her head back a bit on the head rest.
"Give me your phone." She said and V glanced to her, before fishing it out of his pocket. Selene saved her number in it then handed it back.
"Call me when you get home tonight, then I'll have your number in my phone." She said and V nodded a little.
"What if you go out though?" He asked and Selene smiled a little.
"I'll be staying home for the rest of the night. I'm sure my parents will want to know what's going on." She said and V reached over and slid his hand around the back of her neck.
"Let me know how that goes?" He said and Selene nodded a bit before he tugged her gently over for a kiss. When his mouth covered hers Selene forgot that they were parked in front of her parent's house and had to stop herself from crawling into his lap to get closer.
"I'll call you in a few hours." V said pulling back and Selene nodded then got out of the car. Walking up the pathway to the front door she glanced back to V as she rang the doorbell.
V's POV
He waited
until she had gone inside before driving away. It wasn't really
going how he had planned but he couldn't do much. Nothing she had
asked for was unreasonable; it just wasn't what he wanted. When
they were kissing in the car he didn't want to stop, he loved
kissing her especially when his hand was on her neck. The way she
moved like she was going to end up in his lap drove him nuts but he
had to stop the kiss before they got carried away in the car. Driving
towards downtown he wondered how her parents were going to take it. V
didn't think they would have a big problem with it, he was a
warrior, his blood was pure and he wanted their daughter. Not that it
mattered much to him if they had something against it anyways. Selene
was his and that was the end of it. The only reason he cared what
they thought was because Selene did and he didn't want her to be
upset. Pulling into Subzero he turned off the car and went inside, Z
and Rhage were easy to find at their usual table and he sat down
quickly ordering a scotch.
"So how goes it with your lady?" Rhage asked and V couldn't help but grunt.
"She went home to mommy and daddy." He said and Z raised an eyebrow.
"And you let her? That doesn't sound like you." Z said and V shrugged a bit.
"She had some good points. We just met three days ago; she wants some time with her friends and family before moving in. And she wants to date." V said grunting the last part.
"Date? She wants you to woo her?" Rhage said and both he and Z starting laughing.
"Going to write her a poem?" Z chuckled and V swallowed his drink.
"Are we going hunting or what?" He asked.
