DarkPriestess66: Since Cole is kinda dead already, it doesn't count as sleeping with a corpse, so have fun reading this chapter,
Lillith traced lazy circles on Cole's chest,
"How do you feel about going to England?" Lillith asks,
Cole and Lillith shimmered into the Penthouse, since it was the only place where the Frost Siblings, the brothers decided to change their surnames to match Lillith and Tessa, didn't know where it was at. After a few hours of passionate love making, they finally stopped,
"England, why would you want to go there?" Cole asks, as he had his arms wrapped around Lillith,
"Because I was born there, I want to return to my old home." Lillith answers,
"That all?" Cole questions, "Somehow I don't believe you were hunting with Darius earlier, what were you really doing out there in the vampiric community?"
Lillith stared at Cole for a second, "You always know when I'm lying, but I was hunting, I just wasn't hunting for blood,"
Cole sat up and shifted so that he could stare at Lillith's blue eyes, "What were you doing?"
Lillith gripped the sheets in her hands, "There are some places in the city, where mortals do not go alone during the night, places that seem to be abandoned, I was at a few places this past week,"
"And?" urged Cole,
"And I was hunting for information," Lillith admitted.
"Lily, Lily, Lily," Cole shook his head, "When will you learn, you're not alone in this world anymore?"
Lillith shot him a look, "When will you learn not to be such a moron, I had to do this on my own, with Darius as a bodyguard."
"So what did you learn?" Cole asks,
"I learned that this vampire who had turned Samuel is out of control and needs to be vanquished," Lillith replies, "He was last seen in England,"
"And you're planning on leaving to hunt for this vampire?" Cole asks, looking at her,
Lillith sighed and laid her head against Cole, "That's the problem, my love. I can not travel by daylight, and I don't have time to think up excuses as to why my coffin has to be shipped,"
"I think I know a way for you to get to England, but..." Cole states,
"But what?" Lillith asks,
"I'm coming with you and not leaving your side." Cole replies,
"Cole, this is dangerous more dangerous when you were on the run from the Source." Lillith argues,
Cole tilted Lillith's head up to look him in the eyes, "It's more dangerous to be away from you,"
"When you put it that way," Lillith replies before leaning down and kissing him,
when she pulled away, Cole smiled at her. "Do that again, and we may never leave the penthouse,"
"As much as I love the idea, but I'm afraid we have to go back. So I may beat Tessa for coming up with her wonderful plan," Lillith states, before looking down at her borrowed clothes, "I may have to borrow a shirt or something of yours."
"But I like that outfit," Cole pouted,
Lillith rolled her eyes then rolled out of Cole's bed, going over to his closet, she quickly pulled on one of Cole's shirts when barely covered her, and she got clothes for Cole and lightly tossed them at him.
"Okay, I think I may have to hide your clothes from now on," Cole states as Lillith leans against the wall wearing his shirt,
"I have more clothes" Lillith replies then her mouth made an silent 'O' "Which I gave half of what I owned to Tessa,"
"I wouldn't be surprised if she stripped your closet bare of the only basics," Cole replies, getting out of bed and pulling on his clothes, which he was pleased to have, if only he knew where his other stuff was hidden at.
"You do know what the bright side of having Tessa as a sister is, don't you?" Lillith asked
"No," Cole replies,
"She cleaned out everything that was vintage, I can do some shopping," Lillith explains,
"Shopping?" Cole replies,
"Yeah, I might be a vampiress but shopping is in the female genetic code" Lillith replies, "Come on, I want to tease Darius about his dalliances with a certain vampiress, who was thinking lewd thoughts about him,"
"So this new talent of yours?" Cole asks as he walked over and held out his arms, Lillith wrapped her arms around his waist and they shimmered back to Tessa's.
"what about it?" Lillith asks,
"How does it work? You heard my thoughts and Tessa's" Cole asks,
"I'm not really sure, I think I have to more focused on a person, the vampire, Darius and I met earlier directed his thoughts at me and that is what triggered it," Lillith replies, her eyes clouded over for the vampire, who was saying his final goodbyes, but what did he mean when he said that Darius should take very good care of her?
"Do you hear anyone now?" asks Cole,
Lillith's mind focused on her siblings, "Only Alec, he's in Tessa's study again, I wonder what he does in there?"
*Ask and you shall receive, sister.* Alec's project thoughts came at her, *Come on in, and bring Cole with you*
Lillith took Cole's hand and went into to Tessa's study, there was Alec sitting at a desk with piles upon piles of books in front of him, Lillith tried to figure out the topic of the subject he was reading about,
"Demonology, sister." Alec's soft voice answered her unspoken question,
"How did you know what I was going to ask?" Lillith asked
"You're projecting your own thoughts at me, I'm a telepath," Alec replies,
"Okay, so why are you reading up on demonology?" Cole asks,
Alec looked at him, "Wise question, for someone who is only half complete,"
"Half complete, what does that mean?" asks Cole
"Don't you understand, why the Source of All Evil could have taken over you so quickly," Alec states,
"I was in the right place at the wrong time," Cole replies,
"No, it was because you're only half human." Alec states,
"Wait but a moment, to let me catch up to where you are at," Lillith states, "Are you saying that if Cole wasn't stripped of his demonic self that the Source wouldn't have taken him over?"
"Affirmative. But here is where I'm at a loss, How did you're demonic self the being known as Belthazor was vanquished?" Alec asks,
"The Charmed One named Phoebe Halliwell, stripped him of Belthazor." Lillith replies,
Alec's eyes closed, "That is not possible to stripped a half creature,"
"Huh?" Cole and Lillith asks,
"The vampire called you Belthazor, like he knew who you were, something tells me that Belthazor wasn't stripped but put into a dormant sleep." Alec explains,
Alec got up and started pacing "I've read over every book about the supernatural, I could every lay my hands on, trying to find a way to help our kind, but all I get is vampire myths and legends, I have never seen Dracula personally, I don't think he ever existed as a Child of the Night."
"What is he talking about?" Cole asks,
"Vampires started the myths about crosses, garlic, and holy water, stakes though the heart, so mortals would feel safe. We can walk into churches, we can roll in garlic unless we don't want to have friends, and Holy water doesn't do anything to us, except get us wet." Lillith replies,
"And we don't sleep in dirt of our native land, if we don't have time to get to our coffins, we dig a deep enough hole and lay there until sun set." Alec adds,
"We could sleep on a nice feather mattress if there were no windows," Lillith teases,
"Darius does at home," Alec replies, "He even sleeps with a modified teddy bear, but don't tell him I said that."
"I want a picture of this," Lillith states rubbing her hands together in a gleeful sort of way,
"I even have stories about about each and everyone of our brothers, there's a reason I don't speak out loud," Alec states,
"Alec, my favorite brother, tell dear sweet Lily, family stories about our brothers." Lillith cooed.
Alec steeples his fingers together, "What will you give me in return?"
"My undying love and loyalty as your sister?" Lillith replies,
"I already have that, but I want stories about Tessa and You." Alec replies, "I'm like a historian of the family, I like to record our transformations, how, when and why of the choices we've made."
"I don't have anything embarrassing about me" Lillith replies, "But Tessa is another story altogether,"
"What about Tessa?" Tessa's voice asked from the living room.
"Nothing, sweetest sister of mine." Lillith replies, "Just getting to know Alec,"
Tessa walked into the room, "What is with that Sweetest sister crap, three hours ago, you wanted to decapitate me,"
Lillith darted over to Tessa's side and put the younger vampire in a headlock, "Say that again?"
"Don't make me tell Alec about what happen to you back in 1801." Tessa hisses, "I know about him being an historian of the family,"
"What happen, I want to know?" Alec asks
Tessa's head snapped up, "Did he just ask a question?"
"you and Darius make it sound like I don't have a tongue in my mouth, of course I can talk." Alec states "So what happen?"
Tessa pulled her head out from Lillith's grasp, and darted around to Alec's side, "Ever saw a drunk Vampiress?"
"Not that story, please anything but that." Lillith whines,
"She chose the wrong victim, he was very drunk," Tessa replies,
"Tessa!" Lillith exclaimed but a hand clamped over her mouth.
"Please continue," Nicholai states,
"If I remember correctly, which I do. Lily thought a tree was another vampire and she tried to make out with it, and then when I finally got her convinced that the tree wasn't a vampire, she went up to the nearest person and started sprouting off love poems," Tessa replies.
Lillith struggled to get out of Nicholai's grasp and attack her sister,
"Then there was another time, when she was thinking about turning a mortal into one of our kind, and found out he was gay." Tessa stated.
Lillith finally resorted to lowing her fangs and biting Nicholai's hand.
"Ouch! She bit me." Nicholai exclaimed, holding his hand.
"Oh don't be a baby, the wounds are already healing." Bryce replies, as he walked in. "That can't be as bad as Nicholai's first hunt."
"Nicky's first hunt, oh that takes me back." Alec teases, "He went out to the village, where we were um..roosting for the year, we didn't stay in one area very long, but his first victim wasn't even human. It was a donkey."
Lillith roared with laughter, "I think that is why He's such a pervert."
"What do you mean by that?" Bryce asks
"She means, he was chasing asses since his first time as a vampire," Darius replies, "Which now I agree with,"
"What was your first victim then, Darius?" Nicholai asks,
"I don't want to talk about it," Darius replies,
Lillith smiles, "You go for fluffy cotton tails, don't you?"
"No," Darius replies
"Darius' first victim was a serving wench, he was um...sharing a evening with," Alec states, "He didn't believe Maxwell at first,"
"She cut her hand open, and I went into a frenzy, alright." Darius states,
"What did she cut her hand on?" Bryce asks,
"One of my fangs," Darius answers,
"My first victim was human, before I started in on demons." Lillith whispered.
All eyes turned on her,
"He was the deputy sheriff," Lillith explained, "He saw me running away in my evening gown and thought was I hurt."
"That's why, you have a problem with authority figures." Cole replies,
"Shut it, Former Assistant District Attorney," Lillith snaps,
"What ever guys, like just we have to sleep in like the next thirty minutes," Tessa replies,
"But I don't want too, I want to hear more stories about Lily," Nicholai whined.
"So where is that lock?" Lillith asks glaring at Nicholai.
The vampiric siblings went to Tessa's room and borrowed coffins, when Lillith opened the lid of hers, she found all of Cole's missing clothes,
"What are Cole's clothes doing in my borrowed coffin?" Lillith asks,
Tessa smiles, "Last place, you would look," before closing the lid of hers,
Lillith climbed into hers
"Lily?" Alec asked as his coffin was nearest to her, he was already sitting up in his.
"Yeah?" Lillith replies,
"I think I have the solution to Cole's problem." Alec states, "But we need the Charmed Ones' help,"
"Have a good sleep, Alec." Lillith states, as she closed the lid of her coffin. 'That is going to be a problem,'
'I miss my vampire Teddy,' Darius thought as he forgot about Lillith's new awaken gift.
The next night was the final of the reunion, Lillith felt her eyes prick, she didn't want her brothers to leave.
"Oh come on, sister. It's not like you'll never seen us again," Bryce stated.
"Yeah, You're stuck with us, for eons." Nicholai agrees, "Sorry about the first time, we've met."
"Yeah," Lillith agrees,
"You're not getting rid of all of us, just yet." Alec replies, "I'm staying for a few more nights,"
"I'm staying here permanently," Darius states,
"This isn't about that vampiress, you shacked up with is it?" Lillith asks,
"I don't know what you mean." Darius answers,
"Lily, Nicky and I are living up in Washington," Bryce states, "You can come visit us anytime,"
"Wait...Who says I'm living with you?" Nicholai asks,
"I did, Someone has got to keep you in line, we wouldn't want anymore donkeys getting hurt," Darius answers,
"It was one donkey, drop it already!" Nicholai exclaimed.
"You've been skirt chasing ever since," Tessa replies, "if I didn't have my store, I would suggest you move in with me, but you're like Puck from a Mid Summer Night's dream."
"Whatever," Nicholai replies, before he is grabbed by the ear by Bryce,
"Come on, Casanova," Bryce states, with a final wave at Lillith and Tessa, they were gone.
Gabriel had disappeared the night before, and didn't come back when they were suppose too, But Lillith assured everyone, he was still among the undead, he just ran off with a pretty little vampiress to her place in the mountains, with promises of returning in the next few years, that is if the Vampiress would let him.
"Lily, could I talk to you," Alec requested, before looking at Cole, "Alone."
"Sure," Lillith replies, then looked at Cole, "You don't mind, do you?"
"Nah, I'll just go raid Tessa's fridge," Cole replies,
Keeping up with the Human farce, all the vampiric shopped at supermarkets and paid for food they didn't really need,
Lillith and Alec, walked out onto the balcony,
"Do I have to read your mind to know what you want to talk about?" Lillith asks,
"No, I'm breaking my silence from now on," Alec replies, "I need to meet the Charmed Ones, I need to know what Potion they used on Cole."
"Why?" Lillith asks,
"I still believe that a half demon, can't be stripped but there is only one way to test my theory," Alec answers,
"That is going to be a problem, I barely have them trusting me, I don't think I could bring another vampire into the mix," Lillith states,
"Lily, um...i think you have a problem." Tessa's voice sounded edgy,
Lillith looked at Tessa, she was holding her cell phone,
"It's some woman named Piper, and she doesn't sound like our kind," Tessa explains,
Lillith ran back into the room, and grabbed the phone from Tessa, "Hello?"
"I hate to have to call you, but I need your and Cole's help." Piper states,
"Explain this, please?" Lillith asks
"Cliff notes version, Phoebe have been kidnapped by a demon," Piper replies,
"Alright, we'll be right there." Lillith states,
"Good and hurry," Piper replies,
"Wait..what type of demon is this?" Lillith asks,
"Some guy named Jeric, who wants a body for his lover Isis," Piper replies,
"Meet us at the penthouse," Lillith states then hangs. "Cole, get your ass in here."
"What?" Cole asks coming around the corner,
"We're going back to the penthouse, Piper needs our help." Lillith answers,
"Piper?" Cole asks,
"Do you know any other Pipers?" Lillith asks, "Phoebe's been kidnapped by Jeric,"
"Did you say Jeric?" Darius asks,
"Yeah what do you know of him?" Lillith asks.
"He's looking to resurrect Isis, they loved each other at one point but she was killed and he was entombed." Darius replies "If he has a Charmed One, she's going to burn out faster,"
"That's just great..that gives us only a few hours at the most." Lillith replies,
"Let's go, I think Piper needs my help because I'm the only one who can sense Phoebe." Cole states.
Lillith wrapped her arms around Cole, and he did the same and they shimmered to the Penthouse.
