.Bloody And Dangerous.

Sitting In Silence In Wait

Walking back up the staircase I couldn't help but smirk as I heard the growling rise to a roar in the dining area. Killian Jackson was known to kill women and children for his own reasons and now a woman just slapped him and spilled wine all over his hand tailored clothing.

As I reached the top of the staircase it became silent while I walked to the room knowing where it was because I followed the photos, walking to the large portrait of the Jackson family I took one look at all the smiling faces and smiled myself, it was a good photo. Little Killian looked almost innocent playing with his blocks not knowing about the ominous future to come for him, how many people he would kill and how many families he would destroy.

The room when I got there was dark, how I left it, I stripped out of the dress, happy to get the dried blood off as-well. Walking to the bed, I sat down and pulled my knees up to my chest. This isn't hell, this was the waiting room to wait for hell to come. Killian Jackson thought I would surrender to him, I would give in so easily? Hah! No, I would not especially since I have my kingdom to rule. Growling in frustration I couldn't help but want to explore more of the room. The room itself was beautiful, but it had a manly touch everywhere you looked, the stray boxers on the side of the hamper, the smell that wafted as I got up from the bed, and the armoire that sat, black cherry oak and the doors wide open to reveal suites all stocked up for a man to wear, similar to the one I dumped my wine on tonight.

I walked over to a door that sat flat against the wall with the bathroom door, inside I was surprised to see women's clothing all over, dresses, shoes, and corsets all to behold to the woman who would wear them. But these clothes were brand new all having a tag from the tailor who had hand sewn them. I walked over to what looked like pajama's and grabbed a night gown, I flipped off the heals I had been wearing and slipped the silk black nightie over my slender body, it of course fitting perfectly. I almost wondered if they measured me for the clothes that were in this closet?

Backing out and closing the door, I couldn't help but feel tired as I seen the sun peeping through the curtains, I walked to the bed feeling exhausted in that moment,  laid down in it, the bed itself felt like pillows of white feathers, all surrounding me in comfort, feeling at home I closed my eyes, silence consuming me.

                                                               Killian Jackson:

I couldn't believe that bitch, she had the audacity to dump my wine all over me and then fucking slap me?! I was fuming as she walked out of the room growling and prowling as the men took away the plates of food that went to waste. Growling till I got to the thrown room where I slammed myself down and stretched my legs out, huffing I tapped my fingers on the arm of the throne and thought about what to do about this bitch. I couldn't kill her, because then I would have to find a new mate for my taking, and this woman was, I had to admit mesmerizing but stubborn at best. Growling once more I shot myself out of the seat and walking out of the throne room wanting nothing more than to sleep off this night, so I can have a good sleep before sunset. Making my way up the staircase I could smell Adillyn her sweet perfume and the smell of my shampoo, it seemed utterly tasteful that she smelled this way. I growled in pride and walked to the room, hearing nothing but soft breathing. I opened up the door and peaked my head in, you could tell she was accommodated in the room because her dress was strewn about the floor, her clothes she arrived in I could see were on the bathroom floor, because the bathroom door was ajar.

Smirking I walked over to the dress and the other clothes picking them all up and a stray pair of boxers I had tried to make a basket with but terribly missed. I put them all in the hamper for the maid to wash and slipped off my wine soaked suit wanting nothing but a hot shower and sleep. Most people think vampires don't sleep or they can live days without sleeping, but that wasn't the truth, the truth was that we only slept in the day time when the sun's rays could pierce our skin and render us dead. When humans found out of our reign they tried to draw us out one by one into the light by killing our friends and our family; most of us survived of course, most of us just killed or enslaved the human race for our own bidding, and that is when our kings and queens were found. My father and Addilyn's mother both were the last vampires to be strong and willing to take over for their future generations, so it became that there were two royal enemies, the Jacksons and the Valenkyne coven who have been fighting ever since then to become the ultimate ruler of all vampires.

While in my thoughts I turned on the shower feeling the hot water penetrate my skin as I sat against the tiled wall. I just thought about the world and how it was, how much I had on my shoulders, that's the only reason I had to look for a mate to rule with not only to bare an heir but to also help rule the lands with me, i'm not as selfish as everyone seems to say. They say I killed many people, but the only ones I killed were ones who wanted to kill me. The women I released to go back to their husbands in their town.

I wasn't as bad of a person as people would have thought, the death of my parents just brought out the worst in me.

Getting out of the shower I wrapped a towel around myself, I looked at myself in the mirror before making my way into the bedroom where I stripped off the towel and dried myself off, then I threw my towel in the hamper making the basket this time. Walking up to the closet I threw it open to see my supply of suites. I grabbed a pair of boxers and shut the doors, walking to the bed and lifting up the covers.

I kept my distance from her that night because I didn't want to freak her out. For once I felt human with another body in the bed with me. It was a funny to think that I felt human when I was actually dead and far away from having any sort of humanity whatsoever.

Closing my eyes I breathed a small sigh and waited for the nightmares to come.
