Long, boarded up windows let not a speck of sunlight in, the stone tiles lining the remnants of what was originally a bathing pool for the sex workers of Old Cairo shrouded in a dark blanket of candlelit shadows. These days, it served as a playpen for the various pets he'd had you splice together over the last few years, merely for his entertainment and nothing else. You entered, fixing your blood-stained gloves and admiring your nails in the process. DIO had been dealing with his meal through one of his many servants, her stammering and begging annoying you to no end. Her lifeless body lay in a pool of scarlet, your deep scratch marks underlining her face. The male vampire's thin lips flickered up into a grin, determined he would get what he wanted from you instead, since you were in such a ferocious mood. Sat on his chair he took in your form, watching as you bent over to swipe her corpse and toss her to his animals.
Clothed in a sanguine silk, your whalebone corset pushed your breasts up so much he was able to see the two soft mounds rise and fall as you breathed. Opting for sleeves today, they were lined with a black lace, which matched the lace of your stockings sheerly covering your marblesque legs and the veil of your fascinator. The fact your pins weren't hidden beneath an array of heavy skirts was pleasing to him, as was your neck unobscured by a sort of shoulder cut bodice. With the Joestar party drawing nearer every second, you'd found it was far more practical to bustle up a skirt or two, creating enough fabric to hide your intimate parts and bridge the gap with knee high boots. Not that you wanted to show DIO these days, anyway.
Heels clicking on the ground with every step, you eventually stopped a small distance opposite him, your scowl clearer than you had wanted.
"Leave us," he requested, dismissing his wobbling servants. Tongue darting delectably between his lips as he gently patted his knee, you were invited onto his lap. Pulling up your skirts in order to elegantly place yourself onto the other vampire's knee with a roll of your eyes, you met with his lustful gaze. Attempting to remain poised as he pressed his palm to your back, bringing it down smoothly, you cocked an eyebrow as he awaited his words. DIO chose his talk carefully with you, since he didn't want to burn bridges yet. You were an ally, not a follower. It wasn't how he wanted, but it was how it was.
Vampires probably couldn't love. Love was such a human emotion. DIO and yourself had courted in your mortal days, even though he decided to test the mask on you. Your hatred over that soon peaked when he emerged from the Joestar Mansion merely speared and charred. Your love for him had died that day, but there was quite obviously a preference on his end.
Glaring at his wandering hands fiddling with the top of your stocking, he ended up a grinning mess when you removed yourself from his loose grip and pacing away slightly. Your simper wasn't long hidden however, when you turned to face him.
"You're in a rather ill mood, my Darling," he noted. DIO didn't enjoy games. With humans, anyway. You were a vampire, therefore any game, even mind games, were fun. Your coy demeanour was making him feel a little fluttery downstairs already. "I saw how you dealt with my servant. She was simply bringing me my dinner."There it was. Seems he was low key pissed off you burned his dinner before he could. A severe hatred for humans had exploded within you, worsening the more DIO frolicked and fucked with them. You couldn't stand it, but more importantly you couldn't understand it. There were only two things it could be: Jealousy or mourning, both such a mortal problems. A vampire like you had no need to feel human emotions.
Either way, it was true. You had ripped through that poor human woman with your space ripper stingy eyes for absolutely no reason, you were just stalking her.
"Maybe you should eat something else for once. Perhaps you should eat with me."It was probably needless but you didn't care. He never came looking for you anymore and frankly it was the least he could do after his failure to cull Jonathan's bloodline got your soulmate killed.
Years prior, during DIO's brief entrapment with the fishes, you had encountered a being similar to yourself, Kars. Made of stone and ambitious in his desires, you learnt of a time when only Pillar Men walked the earth. This man had created the stone masks, of which there were many, not only the one lost at sea, but in turn, vampires. You. He knew what he wanted and would do anything to get it, no matter how depraved or dangerous. Despite being a woman unsuited to human beliefs or needs, you had found yourself falling in love with this man. He was different to DIO, exhibiting not only power, but a willingness to get things done in a straight line for a purpose, not just for enjoyment. Whilst he had slaughtered his own family and race, much like DIO had pushed away and taken the lives of those around him, it was a kind of control you felt secure in.
Kars seemed to reciprocate when he realised you weren't a run of the mill vampire and in fact stronger than his useless pawns of the night. It was also down to the fact you had agreed to conquer the sun, especially after he was catapulted off the planet. The Red Stone of Aja had granted you a true chance to embrace vampirism before, now it was lost to the world.You didn't want to admit that DIO's choice of pastime bothered you, but it did. It bothered you immensely. Even Enyaba used to get a verbal lashing off you just for existing as a female and a human, now DIO was deliberately impregnating women, despite his protests about laziness and how he, DIO didn't need to worry himself over such delicate lives.
He just had kinky desires, you thought initially, but it definitely went beyond that. You were a whole vampire, and vampire women couldn't breed, due to agelessness and lack of organ function. Your partner was only different since he pretty much had a second-hand human body. Being unable to bear children had been devastating. If you had a heart, it would have been crushed to bits anyway, so you supposed it didn't matter.
DIO was supposed to be your lover, yet you didn't care that he was messing around with others. You couldn't give a damn, since you knew where his imaginary heart lay. It was the fact he was stooping so low as to fuck human women. Humans! He could have shagged a filthy animal for all you cared, but why humans? The race he rejected.
The truth was, you had killed that woman because she was just another proxy for his selfish desires, so it was probably a better existence for her without DIO anyway. You couldn't even just kill him now, because he was the only man who would get you close enough to give Joseph Joestar what he deserved at the very least. The location of the stone had probably slipped his mind after fifty years, so death was now his only destiny and you wanted to do it yourself.Relaxing on the ruined steps of your home, you hadn't seen a sunset in so long, just those bastard rays pouring onto the stone floor, sand collecting in the breeze with a scratchy lullaby.
"Do you still miss the sunset, my Love?" Whilst his voice was akin to silk on soft skin, his words dragged through your stomach like a blunt knife through raw chicken. "Even after all these years?" You couldn't help reminiscing your mortal life sometimes, especially after he took away your ability to lead a normal life. Vampires were limited only to the dark hours, a single ray of sunlight rendering one to mere ashes should they be caught in it. He teleported beside you, towering over your calm form in the shadows and appearing to bear no ill will towards you despite your fallout prior. You had no need of human things since you had transcended humanity long ago. Squatting down, he took your chin in his hand, tilting it backwards so your eyes met in the darkness. Vampires had excellent sight far surpassing that of a humans, so finding your lovers eyes in the pitch black was child's play. "My Darling," he purred, delectable grin eating into you already. One thing he found deliciously satisfying was the fact you weren't intimidated by him at all, you easily mirrored his kill count, possibly exceeding it, unaffected by the useless human lives clogging up his world. Vampires weren't supposed to hold feelings for one another, but he was certain his rekindled partnership with you held more than just a simple vampiric companionship. Sure, you had courted during your mortal being, but love was such a human thing. Totally outdated. "If you're referring to our little quarrel earlier, I must advise you to let go. We're too old to be having impractical squabbles about our mortal lives. Those times have long passed us by, have they not?" Hissing, your sudden teleportation didn't even provoke a flinch from him. DIO was always entranced by your gorgeous, pressuring glare. He loved it even more when you used your space ripper stingy eyes to tear through some unsuspecting human, no remorse crossing your mind.
"Haven't you got some human woman to go and ravish?"
"My Dear, you aren't jealous are you? You should know that I, DIO, choose my women accordingly and there is no woman on this earth as alluring and bewitching as you."
"You speak of me as if you plucked me like some strumpet off the street. I don't take kindly to it."
