I looked at A'kreath thinking about what he meant, "Who was your mentor? And what are those for A'kreath?" A'kreath said, "My mentor's name was Tracer and these are going to go to Annabell. We need to devise a plan for when or if Crystal and Niki get kidnapped." Damien nodded in agreement before he said, "We can't let these two ladies go out alone, they must bring someone with them for safety reasons. Or we can have someone to follow them from far away."
I didn't like the way Damien was talking about it sounded like I needed a babysitter when in my opinion I didn't need one, "I don't need anyone to follow me around I can protect myself now. If you want us to be safe I will allow someone to come and pick me up from the cafe but the following I don't think that would be a good idea." There was a loud growl that filled the room coming from Damien, "Crystal, you can't protect yourself fully yet and I would know according to A'kreath you haven't yet faced the fear of losing your life even protecting someone." He said in a protective tone.
I put my arms around his waist looking up at him and saying, "I can protect myself with some of the training." Damien put his hand on my mouth and said, "Kitten, you need to listen carefully to me, you will have someone follow you during the day, and at night I will come to get you from work you will follow this order." I made a small growling noise at the statement from Damien. Damien chuckled and said, "Don't threaten me with a good time Kitten."
I wanted to argue with him on this but A'kreath said, "Understand Crystal this is for your guy's safety and I have to agree with Damien when you go to work during the day you will have someone follow you and at night my sire will pick you at work which means you can't work the night shifts anymore until this danger has passed. Before you argue with me on this you aren't ready to fight for yourself yet and that means more training." I was getting angry and said, "What is the point of the training if I can't protect myself? Yes, I don't fear for my life because why should I when I can.." I let go of Damien but he grabbed me by my waist and pulled me closer to him I felt his chest against mine and Damien chuckled for a moment and said, "Before you finish that statement, Crystal, think about what you are going to say, the supernatural is far stronger then a mortal, you have not gotten to the point in your training to fight one of the supernatural, as well think about who you would hurt throwing away your life, you would hurt me someone you have intrigued and someone you have shown your desire."
I thought for a moment that he was right if I just threw my life away aimlessly and if I died he would be heartbroken, I nodded faintly "Fine, I will have someone follow me around until this passes. I might not like it but some things are out of my control." Damien looked at Akreath and said, "Okay, now we need to make sure we have more guards around the mansion to keep an eye on everything that goes on here and we need to talk to Annabell about this and anyone who has a play in the phone call."
A'kreath looked at Damien and said, "I will deal with Annabell just worry about Crystal and Niki. I snuggled up against Damien but he was still holding on to me and I said, "Damien can you let go of me now silly as much as I like this, my lower back is spasming in discomfort." Damien whispers into my ears, "Be a good girl and you will be awarded as long as you follow the directions." As he let me go I felt his hand on my lower back and my muscles seemed to relax instantaneously, I smirked and said, "I will try to be good but no promises hehe." A'kreath and Niki rolled their eyes at me and Damien.
A'kreath said, "Crystal and Niki, wait for a moment I got to say a few more things, on top of all this you both will need new phones to reach everyone including each other." He opened a drawer in his desk, pulled out two boxes, walked up to us, and handed the phones to us. He said, "Use these phones wisely and do not give out the phone numbers to strangers do we understand?" I took the phone from A'kreath and nodded to agree with him. I watched Niki take the phone and she turned around to leave the office. Damien said, "Kitten, what time are you going to work tomorrow? So, I can take you to work and make it back in time before I need to go to bed in the morning."
I thought for a moment and then went to him and stepped on my toes to kiss him and said, "Why don't you come to my room and we can spend the night together? I promise to be good and not cause trouble. The time I get ready for work will be 5:00 am my love, I am trying to keep the traditional open at 6:00 am like my mother had the shop opened when she was alive." Damien chuckles and says, " I will stay with you my kitten in your bedroom but no funny business and what type of things do you sell in the shop?"
I took his hand and guided him out of Akreath's office and said, "I sell herbs, different types of teas, and the special tea that Mother had made before she died." Damien looked at me and said, "What's in the special tea?" I stopped walking and said, "I don't remember but once we get to the room I can pull out the book and see what's in it." Damien looked at me with an eyebrow up and said, "You have it in a book? Don't you herbalist just pull herbs and make things with them?" It was my turn to chuckle and say, "If we did that someone has made it on our bad side, and we want to teach them a small lesson for being disrespectful but to kill. The number one rule states for me is I shall do no ill will to anyone and the second rule is always help out even to an enemy."
Damien had a smirk on his face and said, "If someone broke that rule what would happen to them?" I turned around to face him my head tilted sideways and said, "Depends on the person's belief, and not all herbalists follow these rules so no harm shall be done to them. But, if you are asking for some specific herbalist like a poisoner then that is out of my wheelhouse. So what type of herbalist are you looking for love?" Damien said, "I am not looking for type of any herbalist just was interested in what you do for a living Kitten." I started to walk again and as we were walking I saw Sania, she walked in front of Damien and said, "Well hello there Damien, would it not be better for you to have a real woman than a child who is new to the world Damien."
"Can you get your hands off him Sania for the last time he is not interested in you," I told her with anger and a very protective tone of voice of Damien. She stared at me with a look that said get lost loser. she then said, "I was not talking to you, Crystal, and I am sure Damien wouldn't mind me touching his body like I am right Damien?" Sania started to touch his chest and I wanted to murder her but only if looks can kill then no harm shall be done if it was because of a look I was giving. Damien grabbed her hands and said, "You were told not to touch me by my kitten, do you always disobey a female when it comes to their mates/lover? It looks like you need to be taught a lesson in keeping your hands to yourself and your question of if I would like being touched by you the answer is a no I don't like being touched by anyone other than my kitten. If I were you I would not mess with my kitten when I am around again. Plus, Kitten is more of a woman than you ever will be Sania so why don't you go insult yourself."
He then said, "Come Crystal let's go to your room now." He walks away with me following behind him and said, "Well damn I don't know if I should be turned on or what right now love." He then pulled me into him and said, "I think you should be turned on my kitten, and shouldn't doubt me when it comes to loving you." I tilted my head and said, "I was not doubting you dear Damien but I didn't like the way she was touching you and I 100% trusted you just not Sania."
