Chapter 3
"What do you mean? Maximus is forcing you to love him?" Isabel spoke standing up and grabbing tissue to wipe the bloody tears that stained Lyrix's cheeks before they ruined her make up.
Lyrix sighed loudly and grabbed Isabel's wrists, stopping her from cleaning her face. "Don't. I don't want you to get you're gorgeous gown dirty with my tears. It is unnecessary." (A/N: I know in the episode, "Timebomb", Isabel was wearing black pants, leather jacket, etc. but I'm changing it up a bit. Hope that's okay with you all.)
Lyrix stood up from her slouching position and turned on the sink to wet her hands and clean her cheeks while trying not to mess up what was left of her make-up.
Isabel huffed angrily and started to pace, her hand under her chin and her face contorted into a thoughtful expression.
"We should tell Godric. It is not right for Maximus to be doing this to you. It must be stopped! I---" Isabel was cut short when Lyrix stopped her from pacing and grabbed her shoulders firmly.
"Isabel, we cannot. I have been with Maximus for two thousand years. Nothing can change that."
"But---"
"No, just forget it. Now please, promise me you won't say anything to Godric about our discussion."
Isabel sighed in defeat. "I promise." Lyrix let go of the woman's shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you Isabel. Really, I enjoy conversing with you."
Lyrix smiled warmly and embraced the Latina in a small hug and giggled when Isabel hugged her back tighter.
"You can talk to me about anything. Us women have to confide in each other for situations like this." Isabel said once she pulled back from the hug.
Lyrix nodded and looked at the clock on the counter and chuckled. "I suggest we head back to the party. We've been in here long enough."
Isabel looked at the time too and laughed, "I'm surprised Maximus, Godric, or even Stan hasn't come searching for us yet."
Isabel smiled sadly when she notice the change in my expression at the mention of Godric's name and she grabbed Lyrix's hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.
"It'll be okay. Let's go."
Lyrix nodded and smiled before grabbing her clutch and following Isabel out of the restroom.
*~*~*
Lyrix and Isabel had been gone an exceptionally long time and Godric was getting impatient. Since he had first laid his eyes on his lost lover when she arrived, he couldn't figure out how he had spent a thousand years without seeing her beautiful smile, long gorgeous hair that cascaded down her back to her waist, her bright green eyes that he could get lost in all night and her soft milk white skin that he could run his hands all over in the intimate act of making love.
Godric's thoughts were cut short when he also remembered the smell of his love. Not even her magnificent perfume could block out the vile smell of Maximus on her, tainting her, claiming her.
His eyes shifted to watch the vampire he detested interact with Eric and Stan and his eyes narrowed to slits.
"Godric, would you like a True Blood?"
Godric hummed and craned his neck to look up at Eric who was standing above him, looking down at him with a curious and yet worrisome look etched into his pale face.
"No, thank you but I am not hungry, Eric."
Eric nodded obediently, not willing to bother his maker any further and sat back down. It was already clear that he had something plaguing his mind, and Eric had a feeling he knew what is was…better yet who it was.
Godric turned his attention back to Maximus and glowered at the sight of him but his harsh expression when a specific memory entered his mind. He smiled blissfully.
Godric traveled through the quiet village at an inhuman speed. His heightened sense of smell lead him to the tent he was looking for. Her scent was radiating from inside and he heard the steady beating of her heart as she slept.
The corners of his lip twitched up into a smirk as he stepped into the tent and he spotted her body spread across her cot and her hair covered her face and fanned around her head in waves. The fire in the center of the tent created shadows that danced along the walls of the cottage.
He walked to the cot and kneeled in front of the sleeping beauty and gently wiped the hair out of her face. She stirred slightly and whispered his name which caused a smile to become present on his face.
He sat next to her and placed a kiss on her forehead and ran his hands through her hair that had grown in length since he last saw her. He fingered a feather that was braided into a section of her hair affectionately.
The girl stretched her arms above her head and her eyes blinked open. A gasp erupted from her mouth a soon as she gained her focus and saw the figure seated next to her.
"Godric?" she whispered hesitantly.
She sat up fully and saw that it was indeed him, her Godric. "Godric! It really is you!" she whispered enthusiastically throwing her arms around his neck. Godric replied but hugging her back with the same amount of enthusiasm.
"Is this another dream?" the girl whispered into his ear refusing to release her grip of the boy, in fear he might disappear like in all her other dreams.
Godric removed her arms from around his neck and stroked her cheek. "No, Lyrix, it is not a dream…I am really here."
Lyrix pulled away from Godric and held herself. "How do I know? How do I know my mind isn't playing tricks on me again? It has been 2 long years since I helped you escape and you never came back. What would make you return to me now?"
She looked up at him, tears that had gathered in her eyes already threatening to fall.
Godric moved closer to Lyrix so their bodies were touching. "I know. I'm sorry I didn't return. I've missed you and I have not been able to remove you from my head. I had to see you again before I went insane."
Lyrix smiled and cradle his head in her hands, stroking his cheek softly and running her long, slender fingers across the beautiful features of his face.
"I have missed you too, Godric. So much. You haven't changed that much, if not at all. What has happened to you?" Lyrix spoke moving even closer to her love, her breath caressing his face.
"I don't want to talk about me…tell me about you, my darling Lyrixis."
Lyrix sighed blissfully when he spoke her full name but she pulled away when a thought came to her mind. She bit her bottom lip and look down at her lap, fiddling with the drawstring of her sleeping tunic.
"What troubles you, Lyrix?" questioned Godric, moving his hand to rest under her chin and he pulled her face up to look at him.
Lyrix's tears returned and this time they freely fell from her eyes like waterfalls.
"I am to be wed…" she took in a deep shuddering breath, "to a man who does not own my heart…"
Godric sucked in an unneeded breath and his voice came out in a whisper. "To whom? And when?"
Lyrix wiped furiously at her cheeks and sighed, "Sir Nikem, tomorrow night."
Godric closed his eyes and looked down. He was not surprised, just heart-broken. The girl he loved was to be wed and it wasn't to him. He sighed and stood up.
"Don't leave me…" she whispered kneeling on her cot.
Godric froze in his spot and his head snapped up and turned to look at his love. He had formed a plan.
"Runaway with me. We can leave, I'll teach you to live like me and nothing will stop us from being together…"
"I cannot leave my villagers, especially my Grandmother. You must understand." Lyrix argued and was becoming frantic.
Godric noticed her distress and stood before her and held her against his chest, soothingly running his hand through her silky hair.
"I cannot let you marry that man…" he whispered quietly.
"Why not?" she held onto his arms tightly.
"Because…" he lifted her head to look her dead in the eyes, "I love you Lyrixis. I always have."
Tears returned to Lyrix's eyes and she moved closer to him, pressing her chest closer to Godric's and bringing her hand up and behind his head. "Prove it."
Godric closed the distance between their lips and gripped Lyrix's hips tightly before pushing her down onto the bed and taking his place on top of her in between her legs.
Lyrix pulled away for air and ran her hands through Godric's hair while looking deeply into his eyes.
"Godric…." she whispered, "make love to me…" She blushed heavily and took a deep breath. "I'm yours. Forever. I'll always be yours."
These were all the words of encouragement Godric need before he hastily shed both his and her garments. His hands trailed all over her exposed body and explored every part of her, his lips doing the same and her breathing increased and panting and soft moans erupted from her mouth.
Godric trailed kisses up her neck and placed a tender sweet kiss on her pulse spot before kissing her lips and looking her in the eye, silently asking for permission. Lyrix nodded firmly and braced herself by gripping his shoulders tightly. Her gaze never wavered from his and he slowly pushed into her.
The first reaction was that of pain and she whimpered but the pain soon faded away to be replaced by immense pleasure and she moaned loudly and kissed Godric with all the passion and love from every bone in her body.
They continued their love making well for most of the night; their pants, moans and other sounds of ecstasy filling the cottage.
*~*~*
The two lovers lay in each others arms after their intimate moment and conversed in hushed whispers.
"I love you Godric." Lyrix whispered with her head placed on his chest.
Godric smiled and kissed the crown of Lyrix's head while running his hand up and down her arm affectionately.
"I love you to Lyrixis. I always have." He sighed and stared at the roof of the cottage. He knew dawn was soon approaching and he had to tell Lyrix the truth about why he never visited earlier. "I must tell you something, Lyrix."
"Anything."
"I am Death."
Silence followed after his confession and Lyrix sat up, the covers falling exposing her breasts to the cool morning air.
"I don't unders---" Lyrix started but Godric cut her off.
"I am not human….anymore. That is the reason as to why I did not come see you sooner…."
Lyrix simply sat still staring at her lover. Godric expected her to be scared or at least confused but he was surprised at her calm state and notice that her heart never accelerated.
"Then what are you?" she questioned, curiosity laced in her velvety voice.
"I am a Vampire. A creature of the night…"
"Oh, I know what those are. Grandma used to tell me stories but I never believed them." She confessed looking down. Her head soon snapped up and realization dawned upon her (A/N: No pun intended. Hehe).
"You have to leave soon right? The sun is rising." she whispered sadly not wanting her lover to leave her.
Godric nodded, his voice failing him and he got up to retrieve his pants. Once he was dressed again he sat next to Lyrix and cradled her hand in his larger ones.
"I must leave now."
"When will I see you again?"
"Soon. I swear it. Nothing can keep me from you." he said holding her cheek before kissing her passionately. Lyrix nodded and smiled sadly as Godric got up and disappeared form the tent and from her life….again.
Lyrix looked around her cottage and reminisced on the event of that night. She made herself comfortable in the spot that Godric had once been and sighed.
She didn't realized she was crying until heavy sobs wracked her chest but she didn't stop it. She cried, and cried, and cried until her chest hurt and she couldn't breathe.
*~*~*
Godric was pulled form his memory when he spotted Isabel and Lyrixis in the room where the party was still going on. He excused himself from his company and made his way to the duo.
Upon reaching them, Isabel quickly excused herself, saying she had to go and find her human, Hugo and quickly disappeared. Godric grabbed Lyrix's upper arm gently and both felt the electricity from where their flesh met and they stared into each others eyes.
"Can we talk?" Godric spoke, his eyes never breaking contact with hers.
Lyrix's voice failed her and she gave a curt nod and let Godric lead her across the living room and down a hallway with many doors. They stopped at a door farthest from the party and Godric ushered her in before swiftly entering the room himself and locking the door with a quiet Click.
Lyrix turned to face Godric but she never got to say what was on her mind because as soon as she turned, Godric's lips were moving in sync with her own.
