Alice woke up in the middle of the night in Ace's arms. He hugged her closer to his chest and snuggled his face into her hair.

Ace sighed with a satisfying smile on his face. Alice looked up at him, his neck was bare, showing off skin and Alice could see right through it.

Her eyes glowed red and she moved up, getting closer and closer to his neck.

Alice had bitten him on the neck, gently but, hard enough to draw blood from his neck.

Her first fresh drop of blood (not including Peter), which she could taste in her mouth and feel it go down her throat, one gulp at a time and when she was finish instead, of leaving a bite mark like, the usual vampires would do in movies and books, she left a light pink kiss mark on his neck, as if he had been smothered in kisses by his mom or crazed fan girls.

Alice was satisfied with her drink; she had enough energy to last her about three day's worth of demonic power.

She closed her eyes and snuggled her head into Ace's neck.

His scent of fresh blood being spilled, reminded her of the agency she worked at. She fell asleep dreaming of home…

Ace's dream

"Can't catch me, Ace! I'm way too fast for you!" Alice shouted gleefully, as she ran away from me.

She turned around with a smile, her hair blowing in her face as she ran.

She looked back in front of her and, grabbed her hat that was flying away from her.

Her dark brown hair was flying in the wind as she ran with her hand on her head, making sure she wouldn't lose her hat again.

"Alice, guess who's behind you!" I chuckled, and lifted her off the ground, carrying her bridal style while spinning her around in a circle.

Alice screamed and then, broke into laughter; we both fell into the long grass and looked at each other.

"You're so weird you know that." Alice smiled and sat up but, came back down when; I pulled her on top of me.

I wrapped my arms around her waist and took off her hat then, I snuggled my face into her hair.

"You smell like vanilla…" I trailed off, sighing in satisfaction.

Alice wrapped her arms around my neck and rested her head on my chest, relaxing in my arms.

We looked up at the clouds passing by, melting at the sight and relaxation it was giving off.

Alice looked up at me, with lustful eyes. I smirked and leaned in, she did the same.

I felt a sharp pain hit my neck so suddenly, that I felt cold but, warm when our lips met.

A bright light flashed out of nowhere and everything went black.


Ace woke up, holding Alice in his arms. He smirked and leaned in, getting closer and closer to Alice's lips, till a sharp pain hit his neck.

Ace winced at the pain while holding his neck. He rubbed it and then, noticed that there was a kiss mark on his neck. Ace smiled at the site of the light pink lip mark that had stained his neck.

Ace sat up and stretched; he looked over at Alice and smiled. Her sleeping form intrigued him. He got up and put on his jacket then, he started to pack up being careful not to wake Alice.

Alice woke up on Ace's back; he was carrying her piggyback style and was headed towards the Hatter Mansion, not the clock tower.

"Hey…Ace, you're going the wrong way…" Alice said, sleepily, she was pointing at the right direction, opposite from where Ace was heading.

"Eh? Really, I didn't know." Ace said, turning his head to be soo close to Alice's face. Alice blushed and shot backwards, leaning back away from Ace.

"Hey, hey, hey, Alice easy, no need to make a big fit out of it!" Ace smirked, while trying to gain balance from Alice's ruckus.

Alice wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face into his hair.

"Do. Not. Ever. Do. That. Again! Do you hear me…" Alice threatened, giving off scary, frightening, death like aura onto Ace.

"Do what Alice; I did nothing wrong except look at you, closed up." Ace said, innocently.

"Don't give me your innocent, talk. You're guilty as can be, and you know it!" Alice retorted, as mad but, embarrassed as can be.

"Let's not get to hasty about close ups okay?" Ace smiled, trying to make Alice smile but, he couldn't help to see Alice's fiery anger.

It made her look sexy, in a way that Ace enjoyed. Alice took a deep breath in and out then, snuggled her head into Ace's neck.

"Just get me to the Clock tower, Ace." Alice sighed, tickling Ace's neck and pointed at the Clock towers direction. Ace sighed and started walking towards the tower.

As Ace walked on the path, he sensed that they were being followed. Ace turned around, slowly not wanting to scare Alice, even though it would seem interesting to.

"What is it?" Alice asked, still tired from last night encounter on Ace's neck. "Uh…Nothing." Ace answered turning back but, when he did a big dark figure was distances away from the two but, it was close enough to be seen.

Alice was fully awake and alert, she was aware of her surrounding and was ready to attack but, how could she when Ace was there. She didn't want to die yet, she just got there and all these people are being nice to her (except for that perverted mafia) and she really didn't want to leave, a whole piece of memory is here in Wonderland, it could be an important piece to a puzzle.

Alice was about to get off of Ace's back when; he moved back and dodged the first attack. The figure was fast and could knock Ace off his feet.

"No way, Ace, I am-"Alice was cut off by sounds of swords clashing together. Ace was dodging to the left then, the right and made his counter attack, aiming for the figures head but, the shadow knew what he was thinking and blocked it. Ace swung again but, was pulled into the ground by, another dark figure.

The figures were stronger then, the knight and they knew how to stop him, the figures took Ace's sword right out of his hands then, ganged up on him.

Sooner or later the figures multiplied and where, going straight for Alice. "Alice, run!" Ace shouted as he was pinned onto the floor and tied down by chains. The figures turned their attention towards Alice, as she was already gone and running.

The figures morphed together creating a huge shadow. The shadow created a barrier around Alice's path. She was trapped and had no use of escape except, to kick shadow Ass!

Alice's eyes glowed red, and she showed off her pearly white fangs with a smirk. "Fine…Have it your way." Alice said, and before you know it she was in the air flipping and twirling, doing tricks like no one ever has seen.

"Learn your place!" Alice shouted, as her voice echoed through the air. Boom!

Alice had kicked the shadow in the face and it went flying into a whole mess of trees. The shadow had turned to dust right before Ace's eyes.

Alice began to walk towards Ace, his neck burning from the "kiss" Alice had "given" him last night.

Ace had never seen this side of Alice before, never in a million years had he ever seen a woman take down a creature with just one kick.

This was something that Ace thought was attractive.

Alice bent down and untied Ace, the mark on his neck was taking away his energy. Alice set Ace's head on her lap gently, being careful not to hurt him because of the mark she "gave "him.

Everything that Ace saw was fading black, he couldn't tell if he was dreaming or not or that this Alice was a monster and not the real Alice he had met moments ago.

A small breeze played with Alice's hair, tickling Ace's nose. "That scent…It hasn't changed…" Ace thought, slowly drifting into darkness from a concussion.


Ace woke up in Alice's room in her bed. He had a bandage on his forehead, where a small gash had been placed while, he was fighting.

"Well, well, well, had a nice nap?" Alice asked, teasingly while, closing the door with a glass of water in her hand. "Heh, yeah I did, thanks for asking." Ace answered, with a smirk.

Alice sat on the bed next to Ace and gave him the glass. The two started to talk about what happened back in the forest area.

Alice explained to him that when, she was born her mother was a hunter and she was bitten by a vampire, this caused her mother to go to a witch and relief the venom but, in the process her second child would have to bear with being vampire.

Even though her demon side had never showed, it was still there just hiding till the right moment. Ace nodded to what Alice said, understanding what she was talking about and kept on asking her questions on how she was able to do such things.

Ace has always thought that vampires were just a myth, from the stories he was told when he was younger but, seeing one right in front of him was something un-real.

"So, everything I just told you, you. Can't. Tell. Anyone. Okay or else." Alice said, threatening him if he did.

"I won't if I get something out of it." Ace said, smirking, leaning into Alice's face for a close up. Alice blushed and asked, "Depends, what you want out of it." Alice was now scooting away from Ace but, every time she did he would move closer to her.

"Well, Alice we could sl-""No." Alice cut him off with a stern and serious tone. "Then, we could try ma-""No.""We could t -""No!""Then…Can I touch your breast?" Ace asked, smirking at Alice, who had a slight blush on her cheeks and total anger in her eyes.

"No. Way. In. Hell. Are you going to grope my breast!" Alice exclaimed, poking Ace in the chest.

"Hm…Really? Then, how about a kiss?" As Ace said that, he had pushed Alice off of the bed and pinned her down onto the floor, holding both her hands with one hand, above her head and the other, keeping his weight on it for balance.

Alice's slight blush became red but, it disappeared with a smirk on her face. Alice held onto Ace's hand and used her leg to push Ace down onto the floor, so that she could be on top and the perverted knight at the bottom.

Alice pinned Ace down just like he did with her then, she asked, "A kiss? That's all you want?" Alice lift an eyebrow in suspicion, Ace was up to something but, Alice could not figure it out, yet. "Well, not just any kiss. The kind of kisses that couples would do when, they're in love." Alice grinned and cocked her head.

"That kind of kisses only works with couples." Alice answered.

"If it only works for couples then, you and I should be a couple." Ace said, smiling innocently at Alice.

Alice blushed, and leaned into Ace's face. "You and me?"Ace nodded happily. "Together? As a couple?"Alice questioned and Ace was still nodding with a smile.

Alice stared at Ace with a blank expression then, a smile formed on her lips, after that Alice broke into laughter.

"HA-HA-HA-HA-HA! Are you for real?" Alice laughed and rolled off of Ace, holding her stomach.

"Oh, God, Ace you're so funny!" Alice said, panting, trying to catch her breath. "But, I'm serious Alice!" Ace exclaimed, sitting up with a serious expression.

Alice was quite for a moment.

"Dear, God, you are serious." Alice said, hoping he wasn't. Ace shock his head then said, "Alice, I am very serious about this so, would you at least pretend that you care." Ace narrowed his eyes, sending chills up Alice's spine.

"Well, if I do you can't tell anyone." Alice became serious but, had a slight blush on her cheeks. Ace took a strand of Alice's hair and wrapped his fingers around it then he said, "I will not tell because, my lips will be sealed by, yours touching mine…" Ace leaned into Alice's face but, stop when they're noses touched. Alice gulped, nervous about kissing Ace and he would still tell everyone.

She leaned in and she kissed Ace. It was gentle, soft, moist, warm and very passionate. It gave off major sparks that made Alice melt and made Ace fall even more in love with Alice.

Alice's eyes closed shut and she wrapped her arms around Ace's neck. Ace wrapped both arms around Alice's waist and leaned against the bed, not wanting the moment to end but, want to go all the way till the end. Alice and Ace were smooching up a storm in the room till Alice felt something crawl up leg moved up and up and up till, Ace toppled over to the floor.


Alice's eyes snapped opened and broke the kiss.

Slap!

Alice had slapped Ace on his right cheek. "Well, I guess that's all I get from you huh, Alice." Ace smiled, in victory as if he had won the greatest prize of all.

Slap!

Alice had slapped Ace on his left cheek, leaving bright red hand prints on both of Ace's cheeks. Ace put his hand over his left cheek and smiled.

"Man, I think I like my girls spicy and ferocious like a tiger. And you know, you're a pretty good kisser." Ace smirked, at Alice, he was proud of himself for winning a whole make-out session with Alice.

Alice blushed, a little and got off of Ace's lap then, she said "Since, I kissed you; you have to keep your mouth shut, okay!" Alice demanded if that kiss won't shut him up then, whatever he asked might actually work.

"Don't worry Alice; my lips are sealed because of your lips touched mine and so did your tongue too!" Ace smirked and got up from the ground.

Alice blushed and yelled, "YOUR HEAD IS MINE, KNIGHT!" Alice pushed Ace and grabbed his sword.

"Oh, damn that's sexy!" Ace winked at Alice and bolted out the door.

"Ugh! Ace come back here!" Alice yelled and chased Ace out the door.

"Ace!"Alice screamed, swinging his sword around like maniac.

Ace burst through Julius's office and shouted, "Julius let me stay at the clock tower for awhile okay!"

As soon as Ace yelled that out he was tackled by Alice and they both hit the ground with a thud!

"Hey, be careful in here! You both know that I have very delicate things in this room!" Julius scolded the two like little children.

"Sorry Julius." The two said, getting up from the ground.

Alice handed Ace his sword and dusted off her dress.

"Don't you have work to do Ace? You could stay here when it's all done." Julius said, coldly pushing up his spectacles.

"WHAT!" Alice shouted, she was shocked and furious at Ace and she did not want him to stay with her anymore!
