"Killian the white haired vampire was in my dream." I said quietly.
"As one of the men you must forage a bond with?" Killian asks a hint of something tinged his voice.
"Yes, I think i should try to talk to him while they are here if I can catch him alone." I say quickly adding " I need to try to bond with him without the vampires killing me if I can go ahead and get him to agree to the bond then maybe I can get the vampires off my back. maybe I can even only have to bond with the two of you instead of all of them."
Killians eyes shine a faint gold and yellow allowing me to know his pleasure at my words before he speaks, "I would like that while I am fully capable of protecting you id like to get to know you with out all the price on your lovely head."
Pulling me tightly into his embrace he kisses me longingly making my insides lit up. My fingers find their way into his silky hair which shines more red than auburn in the lights tonight. We part to catch our breath and I lay my head on his chest placing my hands on his shoulders. "My biggest hope is that all these bonds won't change me. too many bond pulls and I may lose mind."
"For demons the marriage bond is only strong if the bonded is unwilling and only if the demon chooses to pull on it. I would never choose an unwilling bride but there are some that choose to do so to up the demon number." Killian's eyes are rimmed in black as he scowls. "Although my veiw on that is not a very popular one among my kind."
"Well I'm glad you have it anyway." I state kissing him lightly.
I watch the black fade and change to yellow as he smiles at me. "As I am glad it is you who I have bonded with. for there are not many who are even willing to give being a demons wife a chance. To much superstition due to religions. But demons are of magic just as the Fea are but where the Fea tend towards beauty on the other form while demons look monstrous. That makes people fearful of us but for the most part we are no diffrent than other beings in personalities there are the good ones, the not so good, and there are the really bad ones that are the stuff from nightmares."
I shudder slightly and Killian pulls me close kissing the top of my head before leading me to one of the chairs at the side of the room. "I'll be close by but the vamp is near and now would be a good time to talk to him. See how he is and if you think it will work for you. Dont worry I can be here in less than the blink of an eye if you need me" he says as he squeezes my hand gently before walking towards a food display.
Once I find him standing without the other vampires I make my move. I walk by making sure he can see my eyes. with a thougbt I push the glow of my eyes brighter playing on my dragon form for a moment. As i had planned it caught his eye briefly before the detached mask fell back in place. I found a spot in a corner slightly hidden from the rest of the room and sat in a chair to see if my bait would work.
I didnt have to wait long. The handsome silvery vamp walked slowly into the small alcove I had found. As his silver grey eyes found mine he smiled knowingly. "Hello there little fox, very clever to bond with the demon. my brethren do not even realize you are here."
He came forward placing a hand on my chin with just enough pressure to let me know he could hurt me if he truly wished to as he tilted my head slightly to the side. leaning forward he brought full lips to brush the tender skin of my neck just below my ear as he spoke. his lips created a delicious heat to spread as he spoke. "Not so clever to show me your eyes. but intriguing none the less. tell me little fox why risk being eaten after all that?"
His voice sent shivers of both fear and pleasure down my spine. His tone implied that he ment eat as both threat of death and a promise of pleasure. He pulled back to look at my face showing me with a darkening of his eyes he was pleased with my reaction to him.
"A prephecy," I said simply, "I was sent a prophecy. I must bond with certain men to prrvent the extinction and destruction of the supernatural world. the Demon Killian being one of them. Another being you."
suspicious eyes, "Bond with me? A prophecy told you to bond with me ?"
"yes" I replied, "or bear witness to all of the supernatural world being destroyed. My hope was that you would see past the anger of me taking the relic and see the need for co-operation in this because if I die the prophecy says the world is doomed to die in a bloody war that will destroy everything and everyone there will be no survivors on any side"
"oh little fox your quite the catch," he said with a hint of delight in his eyes, " so very clever. you are lucky my little fox for I dont agree with the others about killing you even before the prophecy. I will seal our bond now."
placing a hand behind my head he pulls my chin up with a slight roughness as he leans forward to places his lips in the hollow of my neck. A gentle caress of soft full lips before the sharp pain of teeth sinking into the delicate flesh there. But the pain is gone quickly relaced by a heat the runs through my body bringing a moan from my lips. His hand tightens in my hair as a soft growl comes from his throat before he pulls away reluctantly.
Bringing his thumb to his mouth he bites it drawing blood the red ring of his eyes swollows the grey as he brings that thumb to my mouth, " Drink little fox seal the bond"
His blood tastes of cinnamon and chocolate supprising me, but I do what he asks sucking the blood from his thumb until he pulles it out rubbing some on my lips. bringing lips still coated in my blood close he kisses me. electricity rockets through my body making my fingers and toes tingle. The bond was sealed my life most likely saved with this simple act.
He pulled back from the kiss his eyes fully red and his voice huskier as he mixed Welsh with his english, " Fy llwynog bach, we are bonded. Prydferth llwynog bach you are mine now and no one woould dare harm what is mine. Let us go dance with the others."
He guided me to the dance floor and pulled me tightly to his body so that i could feel the lean muscles of his body. "show them your eyes" he whispered as he lead the dance expertly i did as he asked letting the light in my eyes shine through my colored contacts. By the end of the dance we were surrounded.
"What is the meaning of this Cassius we were ment to kill her and bring the artifact back." a dark haired vampire said haughtily. Baring his fangs he looked like a bad vamp movie come to life.
"She is mine now Edwind. None may touch her and since she is mine the artifact if back in my possession. Not even you Lady Narkissa would not push this, for it would mean war and she can not defete me or mine. Remember your place Edwind for you'll not like me showing it to you." Cassius's voice held a cold authority with the threat of violence as the pupil of his eyes expanded swollowing the grey until only the ring of red remained.
"Yes Lord Marwolaeth, forgive me." the vampire called Edwind said as he stiffened. anger and fear shown in his eyes as he and a few others of the vampires turned and quickly left the ball.
