I could tell that Alexander, was avid to clean up the mess before the few vampires that were left , could catch a whiff of the smell. The rancid smell of the bodies slowly turning to black muck.

I'm sure you're wondering by now that if when a vampire dies and they turn to a black liquid goop substance, why would you feed of each other. Well, you see when a vampire dies, the body doesn't turn into ash or just disappear. It decomposes and at a extremely rapid rate resulting in well. . .sludge.

My nose scrunched up and I turned to Jason.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAIKkQ6ZvgCB
"Ready to get outta here?" I looked up at him, smiling.
He gave me a confused look, I just kept smiling and took his hand pulling him with me through the door.
191Please respect copyright.PENANASB3Z26bNmY
"Luna! at least wait till someone escorts you!" Alexander yelled.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAnTZVOrr2rb
"Can't die, remember Alexander!" I laughed quietly, I heard Alexander scoff and order Lukas to grab a mop.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAuZgT7D0zkU
Quickly, I ran down the stairs and outside, quickly moving around the staff as they cleaned up, the winter themed decorations, some of the sparkles moving the the flow of air I created.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAuAvoz4cxSz
"Luna, where are we going?"
191Please respect copyright.PENANA6WurJ0CKKv
"Shh." I snapped.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAzBhgFM5N7A
As we reached outside, I took a breath of the air. The snow was just barely falling, everyone's footsteps were still fresh. Yet it was so. . . quiet.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8lCUolu5z
"You're gonna ruin that beautiful dress in this weather. . . come on lets go inside." Jason started to pull me back towards the mansion and I shook my head.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAbgxxtaQsHK
I walked towards the big swan fountain, that had now froze over leaving a sparkling layer across the dark grey stone.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAbDlGHqdiz5
"What was that punishment about?" Jason interrupted my thoughts and I blinked.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAxxTEOkww4f
"What do you mean? I just took care of the possible backlash. . ."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAQBtt7f19m4
"Normally you and I, share what the decided punishment is, let alone, kill a handful at once as punishment. . ."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAhcFrnV3YGn
"Well it's already happened, can't change the past." I snapped.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAOHLnQs4X4W
"That's. . . Not the point." He sighed pausing.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAwIQPnuXZbw
"What were you gonna do with that guy Rickey anyway?"he questioned.
191Please respect copyright.PENANA0vbVA1FKGP
To be truthful, I wasn't really too sure he just. . . drew my attention.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAdMMzbFbLBV
"Nothing, I was just curious."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAXm6G63ADny
His face looked unsure if he trusted me, I'm sure he was rummaging through my thoughts, but even if so he wouldn't find an answer.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAdmtTMOfLhQ

"Ben's coming over for the usual check in, right?" Jason asked, putting on a white T shirt.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAZeqVV2XvWv
"In about five minutes or so, he hasn't texted me or anything saying he's feeling any different so I'm sure it's the same."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAFIZHLRKrUP
"Ben never texts or calls us." Jason scoffed.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAtYrrSh8E9U
"Well the point is I told him if he felt the need, to do so okay Mr. Smart ass" I laughed quietly.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAb3pUZQM8va
"I can indeed be, I love you I'll be back by tomorrow morning." I smiled, as I suddenly felt arms wrapped around my waist.
191Please respect copyright.PENANA5J2Uh7NVBg
I tilted my head back, as he placed a gently kiss on my lips before pulling away.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAjL9zkuGuJL
"Don't get into too much trouble. . ." I teased.
191Please respect copyright.PENANA47H3gPho4x
"Come on. . . it's just Darian and Jay after all"
191Please respect copyright.PENANABacaXUfFTH
I shoved him by the chest a little bit making him step back and shoved him his leather jacket.
191Please respect copyright.PENANA4rj3jSeTH7
He chuckled and walked out of the foyer.
191Please respect copyright.PENANA9aQZrfTg1g
Alexander walked in passing Jason on the way and looked at me.
191Please respect copyright.PENANALlAKeZE07z
"You can stay, but really I'm fine, please relax go. . . I don't know, watch a movie by the door or something, I don't need to be in your view always I promise. . ."
191Please respect copyright.PENANA8YKpViqtmD
He opened his mouth to speak and I cut him off.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAUAU1ShhejD
"Alexander you always worry about us and never focus on yourself. . . at least take an hour, not even a full day, an hour at least. That's an order."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAz5jyRMtduf
Alexander quickly shut his mouth, almost seemed to be biting his tongue and nodded before leaving the room.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAQaf879i7jb
I loved how devoted he was, don't get me wrong. . . ever since I had taken the throne though, he had never fully taken off. Alexander was the head guard and was always with us before anyone else. We were his priority. Though this meant that he truly ever allowed himself to have a life, even though he didn't have to worry about us, because we couldn't be killed.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAiK6IPIeRKU
Part of me wondered, if it was his guilt for Letting the past king and queen down. Though he had said to me once that he knew, that one day we would come and that he knew whoever it was, he would choose us over them. Though if I were to be honest, he never had the chance to know we were planning what we did. Because in fact there was no plan, in some ways that was what made it most impressive yet infamous.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAeNgZ1frDJH
"Luna, Ben is here for you." Alexander's voice broke through my thoughts.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAy85tnNO4B8
I looked over at Ben, who was wearing a navy blur fleece jacket with blue jeans. The snow still lightly covered his jacket quickly melting.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAFtujCdxO6m
"Jacket?" Alexander asked Ben.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAHJZKN0VZX6
Ben shook his head and then walked towards me, I looked at him concerned.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAfi3Gqmr1Wf
"Something wrong?" I asked, as I waived him to sit in the white and gold chair in the corner.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAGf5BZYCUYy
Alexander looked at me for approval to leave and I nodded.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAsnebZIM9Uo
Ben finally sat down and sighed.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAXd94FcMx3p
"I. . . I don't know, I was about to call you, then I didn't and I just have this. . ."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAg9nnQ6L1LC
He paused.
191Please respect copyright.PENANALBYc2hR7tp
"This thirst, like a thirst I can't cure."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAkrf8lr7XUT
He sounded tense and he fidgeted with his hands.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAq72v4xxHIk
Was Ben experiencing blood lust from me taking so much blood?
191Please respect copyright.PENANA2CiM4lDp08
"Are you sick?"
191Please respect copyright.PENANAS0GUKvVFqT
He shook his head.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAzTHvLn6kJm
"I'm not sure, but. . . you could be experiencing blood lust from Kaiden's side of you since he's fed me twice. . .you know I do not have enough information on him to understand fully."
191Please respect copyright.PENANASkWTfOhPpD
"Is that why he's been screaming 'drink from her' since I've arrived?" Ben interrupted.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAm9nFP2BHao
I froze and my eyes watched Ben closely. It was still Ben, but it made me cautious.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAcuFoDY2vaX
Something I very rarely felt.
191Please respect copyright.PENANApQKEZ8Zq6G
"Probably. . ."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAVJem8H3sIh
"What do I do?" he sounded as if he were begging.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAZpVSvu6TTu
He was in pain. A lot of it. . .
191Please respect copyright.PENANAsqODKE2lDI
"I don't know, I don't know enough about a human having this problem. . . let alone a. . . dragon." I cleared my throat.
191Please respect copyright.PENANA7J1yyXLjvb
I had to be careful, because I didn't want Kaiden to force me into a blood bond, but I also didn't want Ben to suffer from a blood lust either.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAzORSDsxfE9
"Why is it coming through now? usually it doesn't effect me you know?" he said as he rubbed his throat.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAuXb8LRtMCt
"I warned you, he would become stronger with everyday, let alone feeding him."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAFAJbVd5hPU
Little did Ben know, it was in my best benefit to have Kaiden fully able to be. Thus, why I encouraged awakening him on what seemed to be "harmless" reasons. Even if he fully did and wasn't in full control, he still didn't have the power to kill me, so I wasn't concerned.
191Please respect copyright.PENANADqVEwHmERF
"Truly, being stuck in this human is becoming very. . . bothersome."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAojbYE0m5zn
Suddenly, I heard Kaiden's low voice.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAu3X0wtM6WF
"I'm quite sure it is being smaller and all, now tell me why must you bother the poor human with your troubles?"
191Please respect copyright.PENANAkFk2EZkx9v
"You said it yourself my dear, as I grow stronger the more control I have over him, over us."
191Please respect copyright.PENANA54uj3omMOV
His words rolled off of his tongue.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAioypBOvFpD
"So, you wish to not be in control of such a thing?" I looked at him.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAfStCkcaiQu
His face was plain, as if there was no emotion.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAzH2F84V9IG
"Well you see back in the day I had people bring a feast full of animals for me to bring and although I suppose what humans eat for meat now is. . . good. It is by no means efficient. Most definitely not carnage enough for my taste."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAWZK4k2ircH
I huffed.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAEPnj4AJgZC
"So what, ripping into me is carnage enough for you?"
191Please respect copyright.PENANAH65A5noqzo
"It's not like you'd die." He remarked.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAgw596IGP06
I rolled my eyes and in response he smirked, his yellow eyes burning, almost straight into me it seemed.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAP9APsTlOB5
"Sorry, I don't recall offering myself as a Martyr for you." I sneered.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAsV0KBJBEiG
"Unfortunate, haven't had that offer in a while. . . and you my dear could last me for forever. . ."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAoMXyMWIf9J
He sighed, as if bored with the conversation and stood.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAxwBwqLCPmx
Carefully, my eyes followed him, as he paced the room.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAGRzDqAW3tE
"Relax child, I will not harm you."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAYzoX7VmjbO
"You've already harmed Ben, how can I assure that you won't lie to me about more hmm?"I tested.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAFjkUz6vLBy
He held up his index finger and smiled coming closer.
191Please respect copyright.PENANAraQHUAExb9
"True, this is indeed also true, but I also know that everyone is indeed just waiting for us to make a struggling sound and everyone in this mansion will either be rushing in to contain me, even if it means they die. . . Others will run away."
191Please respect copyright.PENANAEsa86zQT5E
"So, as you can see Kaiden, I don't have insurance in this situation, now do I?"
191Please respect copyright.PENANAKxzxEoDHvQ
"Very well then. . . then I suppose this is farewell until you have the insurance you need, am I correct?"
191Please respect copyright.PENANA4BWcXD0Aod
Kaiden seemed to be very. . . testing of my comfort of the situation.
