Chilling Time

Serenity looked over at the white haired male that had chuckled at her. Tilting her head to the side, she gazed closely at the male. His sapphire blue eyes glinted dangerously dark and his pale pink lips didn't quite go with his dark complexion. Sighing, her eyes fell to her wrist and she muttered under her breath.

"Please tell me why you are here?" she questioned as she glanced down at his attire. The pale blue shirt hugged tightly to his chest and the black pants lay on his narrowed waist.

"Do you like it, lady?" he asked deeply, his voice laid back and at peace. Serenity just shrugged.

"You didn't answer my question, sir," she replied irately.

"Oh, I was just wondering what has come to be with the night life. You know, the people who roam only the night?" came the mocking snipe.

She raised an eyebrow and her eyes mocked him. "If you will please excuse me, sir, but I am dreadfully late for a date of mine." She made her way around the man and didn't notice the hand that snaked around her. Pushing away from the male, she felt the cool metal of something against her head. Stiffly, she stood still and didn't move.

"I knew you would get the idea, sweetheart. Now, can you do me a favor?" he asked with a laugh. "Well, actually, you will do the favor or I will shoot you. I don't want to scar your pretty face with blood." He kissed her cheek and she gagged.

Pushing her against the rough brick, he smirked into her face. "I've been looking for a certain vampire. His name is Endymond Black. Do you have any information on him?" he asked as he touched her breasts roughly. She yelped in surprise and shook her head. Man, I wish I wasn't so fucking scared, she thought mildly displeased with herself.

"Really? You smell so cunningly sweet, sickly really. You also have a sent of him on you. You sure you haven't got any info on him?" He twisted her nipple painfully and she bit her lip. Blood started to pulse from it and she licked at the wound.

"I was with him today but what do you want with a human being?" she asked as she kneed him in the groin. He let go of her and clutched his manhood.

"You are a dumb person, Ms. Hill, you know that." He got up, the attack doing little to him. Aiming the gun, she screamed as he shot and it barely missed her. Screaming louder, both physically and mentally, she ran as he shot again.

Then, the gun slammed to the ground and Serenity fell. Tears sprung to her eyes as she looked at her side. Blood was seeping through her cotton dress and her gaze lifted to the midnight blue one that was concerned. "Am I going to die now?" she asked him as he picked her up. Then she slipped into unconsciousness.

----

Damn it, he thought as he rushed through the night. This is what happens when I leave her alone! Darn karma. The trees flew past him with the buildings becoming fewer. Jumping into the air, he dodged a fence and looked down at the pale form that was loosing blood faster then he needed. If I loose her I am killing myself. He laughed at the irony and jumped through an open window.

Gazing around, he noticed he landed in the middle of the lounge in his manor. Smiling tightly as people rushed up to him, he scanned the large crowd to find one person. Landing on the tall blond, he smiled grimly. "She needs help," he stated tightly to the blond and soon was led to a room where he placed Serenity down.

"May I ask what happened?" his friend asked as he looked over the wound.

"She was shot by some guy. She was late for our dinner date and I heard her screaming mentally. When I got there, some guy was saying something about me and was doing inappropriate things. I waited as she kneed him and then I sprung to action as he shot at her. I was a little late getting him down as he had shot her." Endymond gazed at the pale blond girl. "I wasn't going to take her to the hospital. To expensive. You are actually better then a hospital staff, Zoicite."

He was rewarded with a smile from the blond haired man and as the night drifted away, he held on to her hand as Zoicite operated.

It was a while later that Zoicite spoke. He was cleaning his hands as the maids made a fuss with the blood on the bed sheets. "Why were you so worried?"

Endymond looked at him with surprise. "What do you mean?"

"During the whole operation, you were imitating worry. I was half tempted to send you away from the room because I wasn't concentrating." Zoicite raised an eyebrow and looked at the man before him. Never before did he think of his friend worrying over if someone lived.

"She is Serenity reincarnated. I hope."

"You don't sound so certain."

"Because I am not so certain she is."

Zoicite shook his head sadly. My King still had a lot to go through, he thought as he left the room.

Serenity opened her eyes hazily. Moving around, she tried to find a comfortable position on the bed she was lying on and sighed when she finally did. Using her very warm and hard pillow, she snuggled into the comforter and yawned as she drifted off to sleep.

Wait a minute. I don't have a warm and hard pillow. Snapping her eyes open, she sat up shaking and gazed down at the body that she was lying on. "What in the world?" she screeched as the arms moved and grabbed her.

"Lay down," a rough voice stated as the hand pushed her down. "You'll tear open the stitches and I don't think my friend would be happy to wake up this early in the morning." She complied and pushed against the person. Smiling as he turned around, at least she hoped it was a he, her grin faded as she gazed into blue eyes.

She groaned in her throat as she noticed the naked body and then her own. "We didn't-" She couldn't even say the word.

"No. You were injured by a crazy male," he simply said as he gazed at her. "My friend, who is a very good doctor, stitched you up after getting the bullet out."

"B-b-bullet?" her voice wavered. Eyes going wide, she remembered what had happened the night before. Tears welled in her eyes and she started to cry.

"Shh," he said. "You are safe, Serenity." He rubbed her back and soon she fell back asleep.

----

Serenity sighed as she sat in her plush chair. The day before, Endymond had dropped her off at her house, warning her that she wasn't allowed to move anything or do anything that required great exercise on her side. "In case you do, call that number," he stated grimly as she got out.

"Yes father." She chuckled at that. Yet, the thing was: How did Endymond know that she was in trouble? Shaking her head, she cleared it of the thoughts and looked at her computer. There were three messages waiting.

To: Serenity Hill

From: Mayor

We are having an important meeting today at three in the afternoon. You are to attend or have all funding removed.

She sighed and read the next message.

To: Serenity Hill

From: Mike

Hey! How is it going? We are going to have a party in a week. Bring someone for a change. Call me later.

She smiled and looked at the date it was sent. So in three days, she thought. I can bring someone this time.

Finally, she read the last one.

To: Huntress

From: King

We are quit aware of what you have done to our race, huntress. If you do not cease these attacks, we will have to take extreme measures. As you probably know, my late wife's death day is coming up. NO ATTACKS or you will be killed.

Serenity glared at the image and huffed. Threats and threats. Why can't I be left alone? Looking at the time, she sighed again. Guess I have a meeting to go to.

Here is the long awaited, for me, chapter.

Hope you like, it was rushed and I might change the chapter to a different one.
