Stanton's POV
He stared down at what Serena was wearing. She looked beyond beautiful. He couldn't think of the words too describe her. She was wearing a very short schoolgirl black skirt and a red backless glittery spaghetti strapped shirt. Flames were painted on her upper arm making her red tipped curly hair show up. Her brilliant green eyes were outlined with black eyeliner and red glitter.
Serena smiled at him, obviously picking up on what he was thinking. 'I guess I picked a good outfit for tonight' Serena whispered across his mind, making him grin.
"It's beautiful," Stanton whispered into her ear putting his hand on her bare lower back and pulling her closer "so are you." He whispered even quieter as she leaned her head against his chest (I know it's cheesy but I don't care!).
'I love you Serena, and I always will.' He said harmoniously across her mind, feeling her knees go weak making his smile grow broader. "I'm yours, do what you will to me." (I've actually heard that before, it's really sweat in real life). He could tell she knew this already, but he didn't care and neither did she.
"Stanton?" Serena asked coyly
"Yes?"
"I couldn't live without you, literally." She said on her tiptoes to reach his ear. Suddenly a large devilish grin spread across his face. Serena stared quizzically at him for a moment.
Serena's POV
'What's going on?' she thought.
Without warning Stanton slowly started moving her over to the dark corner of the dance floor. He began to kiss her, explore her mouth with his tongue. Her eyes began to close as she fell into it, she could feel Stanton pushing her up against the wall.
He had pinned her against the wall his arms at either side of her. Then the long fanatical kiss ended, making her ach for more. He starred down at her smiling, in that way that that would attract any girl to him. Stanton pulled her into another hard kiss.
He reluctantly stopped abruptly, looking annoyed at someone behind him. Serena looked up at Stanton and pouted.
'Catty and Kyle' he responded, irritated. He still had her pinned against, not like she minded. Stanton leaned down and lightly bit her lower lip, making her tremble. Then he stopped and moved aside so she could talk to her, at the moment, aggravating friend.
"Yes?" she asked Catty with the aggravation showing and a look that said 'why did you do that?'
"Well, Vanessa is playing a new song she wrote last week. It has a fast beat and great to test our new moves out on." Catty responded excitedly. "So sorry to interrupt . . . . what you guys were . . . .umm . . . .doing." after Catty said that Kyle tried to seize her hand and drag her onto the dance floor but she dogged it. Instead Catty took it.
Kyle's POV
'Seeing Stanton with my dream girl is really beginning too get to me!' Kyle thought to himself while he watched Serena walk away to the center of the dance floor with Catty pulling her along. Hunger in his eyes. Stanton walked past him, running fiercely into his shoulder. Knocking him back into reality.
Serena, Catty, Jimena, and Tianna started to dance, their bodies moving with the beat. Serena moved to the floor, straining her legs, and rolling her body back up again. Kyle stared at her, watching graceful and sinuous body move along with the music. Filling him with a new yearning and lust. The only thing in his way was Stanton and at the moment they were staring at each other.
He had heard rumors over the past year that Stanton had fallen for a daughter but he didn't believe it, until now. Tons of girls tried flirting with Stanton as he watched Serena dance, but he did nothing not crossing a single girl over. Stanton was very powerful, Kyle knew that, and probably the best looking follower and guy in L.A, he knew that too, he could easily have any girl he wanted and chose the one girl he couldn't have. One of the other "rumors" about how the daughters turned him human again and how he crossed back over to the Atrox to save Serena's life (The Sacrifice, Book 5). 'He could've been free, why'd he do it?'. He guessed that's when he became the Prince of the Night. Kyle had heard all the rumors before but never thought them for truth.
Another question that kept rolling around in his mind was why did Serena fall for Stanton. She was sworn to destroy him and his kind. Thinking optimistically 'Since she already fell for one follower she can do it again.'
Serena was so occupied with dancing so Kyle could scan her mind and see when he could put his plan into action. Tonight, tonight she's having a sleepover at her house. He left Serena's mind without disruption or disturbance. Time to leave.
Serena's POV
'Well, the song over. Shit, I forgot introduce Derrick to Stanton.' Serena walked over to Stanton.
"I forgot to introduce you to Derrick." Serena said wrapping her arms around his neck.
He checked her mind "Tianna's boyfriend?" he asked. "Yah. Let's go over there, he'll find you very interesting." Serena said smiling as Stanton took her hand. Serena knew she was sort of showing him off.
They both walked over to Tianna, Derrick, Catty, Jimena, and Collin who just showed up. "Sorry Derrick I forgot to have you meet Stanton." Serena said, and then noticing Collin giving Stanton a weird look she couldn't read. He never seemed to trust any of her boyfriends, especially Stanton.
"Derrick this is Stanton, Stanton this is Derrick." Serena said doing the usual intros (I don't remember them meeting).
"So your Serena's boyfriend, I've heard a lot about you." Derrick said. "You're the Prince of. . . . . .what is it? . . . . . darkness or night, right?" Stanton just raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, close enough."
"So what kind of powers do you have?" He asked excitedly, thinking this was so cool.
'I bet you can figure this one out on your own.' Stantonsaid across Derrick's mind, you could almost hear the smirk in his voice, the tone of mocking present.
"That's all? With you being "all powerful" and stuff I thought you would have more." Derrick said trying to keep the amazement out of his voice while acting nonchalant about the whole thing.
'There's a lot you will never know about me, although you know to much as it is, and don't be so naïve to think that I would spill my whole story to…you' Stanton finished harshly, he disliked these boyfriends of the daughters.
"Well, this is comfortable." Tianna said awkwardly as she shifted her weight.
Derrick's eyes were now bulging. He seemed at loss for words, looked as though he was struggling between looking pissed, shocked, or plain scared.
This whole uncomfortalbleness only lasted a second because Vanessa voice resonated though the club with the lyrics to Demon lover. All Stanton did was look over at Serena as if say 'can-we-go-dance-now-pleeeaaassseee?'
Stanton didn't bother for a reply, he grasped her hips and pulled her closer to him as they moved to the stage, a huge smile growing on his face. Serena began to grind her hips against his and moved lower to the floor. She turned around so her back was on his chest. His hands were intertwined with Serena's and on her stomach. Her body and face were burning from Stanton's body heat. Serena moved her hands up to his neck and dropped (squatting and going all the way to the floor on the person's body and then bending over to go back up again). His hands went lower to her thighs as she moved her head in the crook of his neck.
A little space around them cleared, the whole place seemed to watching them.
Vanessa's POV
Vanessa laughed at her friends. The DJ had been playing for the last ten minutes and she had been watching Stanton and Serena dance. She had to admit Serena had great moves and Stanton looked HOTT! Michel was standing beside on the edge of the stage, behind the wall, staring at Serena, eyes wide. Vanessa wished she had Serena's power right about now.
The DJ kept speeding up the music; as of he wanted to see what they would do. Collin's face was hysterical, 'I guess watching his little sister like that was not his idea of fun.' Jimena, Catty, and Tinana were cheering them on.
Vanessa grabbed Michael's arm, "Come on let's go dance!" she said dragging him with her. "With them?" he questioned, looking intimidated. "Yep", Vanessa laughed, "we can't let them have all the fun!"
Vanessa began to slowly copy all of Serena's moves beginning to get the hang of it, Michael finally caught on to Stanton's. 'Awesome' she thought smiling.
Serena looked over at them and gave her a huge grin 'Let's give them something more to look at.' Serena said across her mind. Vanessa was confused for a minute, and then she understood immediately she kissed Michael on the cheek and walked over to Stanton and Serena.
Stanton's POV
They had tons of people watching them and even more when Vanessa and Michael came along. He loved dancing with Serena.
'What the hell do they have planned?' Stanton asked himself with a smile when he noticed that Vanessa left Michael and started walking over to them. As if to distract him from what they had planned Serena dropped and then bent over slowly moving up his body. 'That defiantly got my attention.' He moved with her, his lips on her neck.
'Holy Shit!' he said in his mind. Right after Serena dropped, Vanessa did the same thing behind him. He heard the screams and cheers from the crowd of dancers that had gathered. Stanton could practically feel Michael's thoughts from here.
Then he saw Jimena walk up to the three of them, she moved to his left side. He kissed Serena's neck as she laughed at his thoughts (I've done this before, it's hilarious. Try it sometime. The guys freak!)
'Your cruel.' Stanton said sensually across Serena's mind.
'I know.' Serena responded she turned facing him, raising her eyebrows, and smiling. Pausing for a moment then did a front-to-front drop. The look on his face made her and Jimena laugh. Serena had begun sweating now and so had he. They were burning up, along with Vanessa and Jimena.
It had seemed almost like forever and none of the other dancers stepped in. The DJ seemed to be enjoying their dancing as much as the crowd.
Then after a little while the dancers started to fill in and dance again. And about another hour and a half later they stepped off the dance floor to leave.
Vanessa's POV
"God, I'm hot. How did you guys last that long?" Vanessa asked Serena and Stanton. Jimena nodding her head in agreement as she fanned her face with her hand, "I could barely keep up with you guys after a while." Jimena added exasperated. Stanton just gave them and innocent smile and shrugged his shoulders.
The rest of the group came up to them. "You should've seen his face when you dropped on him! Stanton was having a bit to much fun." Vanessa said smiling.
"You guys looked amazing!" Catty said, Tianna and derrick agreed. The only two that didn't seem so excited were Michael and Collin.
"So, how'd you guys like it?" Jimena questioned.
"Fine" they both mumbled.
Vanessa knew Michael didn't like Stanton and her dancing with him probably made it worse. "Anyone want a drink?" Tianna said breaking the uncomfortable moment.
Ten minutes later they decided to walk home since it was nice out and they were all burning.
On they way home Vanessa and Michael were in front with Stanton and bringing up the back, hand-in-hand. Catty, Tianna, and Vanessa had to get their stuff for the sleepover tonight at Serena's. But she was still worried about Michael, 'he should be over it by now' she thought.
The first stop was Tianna's, then Derrick who picked up his car from there, Catty, Michael, and then Vanessa. She said "goodbye" then went inside.
Serena's POV
"Get over it Collin!" Jimena said annoyed "I DON'T like Stanton and he's her boyfriend, they can dance together!" Serena could tell her friend wanted Collin to get over the whole dancing thing, but she really didn't feel like getting into that right now. Stanton had his arm around her waist, letting her rest against his shoulder as they walked back to her house.
"We'll meet you back at the house we're going to take a detour." He said pulling her into an alley and wrapping his arms around her. 'What detour?' Serena asked as she stood on her tiptoes to reach his ear. He just smiled while he leaned back taking her with him and blending into the alleys dark shadows. They soared around in the sky for a minute then whirled around Collin and Jimena, watching them shiver. Serena whispered "See you soon" into the wind around them. The last thing they heard was Jimena's fleeting voice saying "I wonder what that would be like?" then their voices were completely gone, disappearing as they sped off into the night sky. The soared across the sky for what seemed like hours but in reality was minutes.
When they finally reached Serena's house everyone was already there. The balcony doors flung open as they materialized inside her bedroom, startling everyone. Stanton stepped aside and gave Serena a quick soft kiss goodnight then melting into darkness.
Serena flopped down on her bed and began to fiddle with the small tare in her leopard print comforter, a goofy smile covering her face.
"Oi, mi amiga. Yo no comprendo tu." (oi, my friend. I don't understand you.) Jimena said laughing at her as she sat down next to Serena.
" what don't you understand about me?" Serena asked, sounding offended but wasn't, the goofy smile not fading.
Vanessa was the one to answer, "You have it worse than me and Jimena combined, I didn't think that was possible!"
Serena started to stare at the ceiling with interest. She knew this already and smiled. Serena had fallen harder and faster for Stanton than they did with their guys. 'This ceiling is very boring, I think I need to paint it or something. She couldn't keep Stanton out of her thoughts.
"So, tell us everything! What it's like? Have you guys done anything yet?" emphasis on 'anything'. Jimena asked raising her eyebrows. The night continued like this, them questioning her and Serena questioning them, till they had the complete on what they had done and haven't done yet.
Serena found out about how Chris was coming back soon; the not so innocent things Vanessa and Michael had been doing; WAY too much than she needed to know about her brother; and how Tianna may be in love with Derrick. Also the very touchy subject about their birthdays. Serena was being questioned relentlessly about it.
"I'm not telling you!" Serena said for the umpteenth time, "You'll find out soon enough!" she paused to look at the digital clock on her dark nightstand, next to her bed. 3:37! "Shit! I've got to get some sleep so I can practice before the rehearsal tomorrow! 'Night you guys, I'll see you in the morning."
Everyone slowly began to fall asleep, but right before Serena closed her eyes she picked up a thought that surprised her. 'Time to strike', what was that about?' Thinking she picked up someone's dream Serena fell asleep.
Only to be woken up 15 minutes later by . . . . . . . . . .
I could be cruel and end it here, but I feel like going on. :)
'Kyle! What going on! What time is it? How long was I sleeping? Again what's going on!'
Kyle had one hand over her mouth a huge smile camouflaging his insanity on his face. 'Time to come with me, my love.' Kyle said across Serena's mind.
Serena saw the clock out of the corner of her eye ' 15 minutes, that's it?' more questions flooded her mind, 'When could Kyle read minds? Are the others ok? MY LOVE! WHAT THE FUCK IN GOING ON HERE!
Serena tried to gather her powers but found them gone. 'My foolish goddess, do you think I would forget you infamous powers?' Kyle said to her, with his new powers. She looked over at the other daughters and Jimena sleeping on the floor and began to sense them waking. 'NO! Stay asleep, don't wake up!' she thought desperately, begging for their survival. Kyle, who was still in her mind, looked over at them, and used all the power he could muster at the defenseless girls. Slamming them into the wall, probably rendering Jimena unconscious and bruising the others.
Vanessa, followed by Catty and Tianna, stood up gathering their powers for battle. The slight distraction gave her a second to do something. Serena slammed her knee up, right where it would hurt the most; even followers could feel that.
Kyle cried out in pain but didn't roll off of her as she had hoped. The scream did call someone to them, someone Kyle defiantly did not want to mess with.
