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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡho3ge6ZgPq
"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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMACux2QZ1Z
"Luna! at least wait till someone escorts you!" Alexander yelled.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N14RXGAJg
"Can't die, remember Alexander!" I laughed quietly, I heard Alexander scoff and order Lukas to grab a mop.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuX6BY4Zc7
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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJ7MBH4Yqm
"Luna, where are we going?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UZmBNnGaW
"Shh." I snapped.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I6tz1vjz2
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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UvtqwzEsu
"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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVr4acsSLj
I walked towards the big swan fountain, that had now froze over leaving a sparkling layer across the dark grey stone.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcevvYSVlIP
"What was that punishment about?" Jason interrupted my thoughts and I blinked.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6858LmAN5T
"What do you mean? I just took care of the possible backlash. . ."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxtuqMICS2
"Normally you and I, share what the decided punishment is, let alone, kill a handful at once as punishment. . ."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRylHPkFRU
"Well it's already happened, can't change the past." I snapped.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdTw55CE7s
"That's. . . Not the point." He sighed pausing.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFT2yZNh8ck
"What were you gonna do with that guy Rickey anyway?"he questioned.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdspjz1jSKM
To be truthful, I wasn't really too sure he just. . . drew my attention.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dJULrnObd
"Nothing, I was just curious."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBZBVCDjvb
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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKaluB71VU

"Ben's coming over for the usual check in, right?" Jason asked, putting on a white T shirt.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0vLo6Kvrz
"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."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWhHUEw33W
"Ben never texts or calls us." Jason scoffed.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tfIZcNdRi
"Well the point is I told him if he felt the need, to do so okay Mr. Smart ass" I laughed quietly.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXZlrS5gRY
"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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa81eD1I5Ep
I tilted my head back, as he placed a gently kiss on my lips before pulling away.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45NrhYkAUq
"Don't get into too much trouble. . ." I teased.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6tRPt1h4X
"Come on. . . it's just Darian and Jay after all"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa34RaQonAE
I shoved him by the chest a little bit making him step back and shoved him his leather jacket.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHO2yQ9IbH
He chuckled and walked out of the foyer.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomdauwhsOz
Alexander walked in passing Jason on the way and looked at me.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVBgd2meIZ
"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. . ."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnaEXSghgt
He opened his mouth to speak and I cut him off.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBRIFXNZwJ
"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."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIa6jq09FBv
Alexander quickly shut his mouth, almost seemed to be biting his tongue and nodded before leaving the room.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrE5IoZDxp
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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUCEO9FeE8
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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVCzsmCC6o
"Luna, Ben is here for you." Alexander's voice broke through my thoughts.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCjc09PtRF
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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpq9WZCxXL
"Jacket?" Alexander asked Ben.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD9lO1badi
Ben shook his head and then walked towards me, I looked at him concerned.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4sCfVlYFV
"Something wrong?" I asked, as I waived him to sit in the white and gold chair in the corner.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RhEXv9MdF
Alexander looked at me for approval to leave and I nodded.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8vAYbNEwk
Ben finally sat down and sighed.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhapmQfyQr
"I. . . I don't know, I was about to call you, then I didn't and I just have this. . ."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRd0hxQIFIh
He paused.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0buVPipU4
"This thirst, like a thirst I can't cure."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq2qQtlrwe
He sounded tense and he fidgeted with his hands.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBt8gxxRLG
Was Ben experiencing blood lust from me taking so much blood?
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhPpVHpDhC
"Are you sick?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRv6GoK0tu
He shook his head.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBj8r31FuE
"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."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcasbhZeov
"Is that why he's been screaming 'drink from her' since I've arrived?" Ben interrupted.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQVviQ4bf5
I froze and my eyes watched Ben closely. It was still Ben, but it made me cautious.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjEu4nGMZJ
Something I very rarely felt.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKXBiOUYCq
"Probably. . ."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbWjNmRBFL
"What do I do?" he sounded as if he were begging.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCgBiePS4R
He was in pain. A lot of it. . .
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKVHSQW1Mb
"I don't know, I don't know enough about a human having this problem. . . let alone a. . . dragon." I cleared my throat.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4YH4DMxNG
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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNqlAIjlyH
"Why is it coming through now? usually it doesn't effect me you know?" he said as he rubbed his throat.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f9rOQrjFu
"I warned you, he would become stronger with everyday, let alone feeding him."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWT3GPOHn2
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.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZC09Axwff
"Truly, being stuck in this human is becoming very. . . bothersome."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMECjSLWlnV
Suddenly, I heard Kaiden's low voice.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CVMFqIysO
"I'm quite sure it is being smaller and all, now tell me why must you bother the poor human with your troubles?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbpsJXUzhu
"You said it yourself my dear, as I grow stronger the more control I have over him, over us."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzoozDFNV4
His words rolled off of his tongue.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjLWzJ0O6f
"So, you wish to not be in control of such a thing?" I looked at him.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cXKkdePJV
His face was plain, as if there was no emotion.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QPPSvVNLI
"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."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77ogDJPgiD
I huffed.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLGT0IESgZ
"So what, ripping into me is carnage enough for you?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPwdYy7wO3
"It's not like you'd die." He remarked.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66vZytWl8b
I rolled my eyes and in response he smirked, his yellow eyes burning, almost straight into me it seemed.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKkgLxQkQY
"Sorry, I don't recall offering myself as a Martyr for you." I sneered.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ0RbCTekG
"Unfortunate, haven't had that offer in a while. . . and you my dear could last me for forever. . ."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSWiSmguw1
He sighed, as if bored with the conversation and stood.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTuwVv6q7a
Carefully, my eyes followed him, as he paced the room.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwhvQxpyta
"Relax child, I will not harm you."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡax3ICWB8un
"You've already harmed Ben, how can I assure that you won't lie to me about more hmm?"I tested.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQDoOmCKen
He held up his index finger and smiled coming closer.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hCHlBZLb8
"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."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWg9RisAXK
"So, as you can see Kaiden, I don't have insurance in this situation, now do I?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEM2RfJsex
"Very well then. . . then I suppose this is farewell until you have the insurance you need, am I correct?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCXF1AX2SZ
Kaiden seemed to be very. . . testing of my comfort of the situation.
