Dark Temptations(on hold)

Authors note ch-17

I am so sorry but I was not thing through how old the characters are. So let me make this clear. Earlier I said he's 3980 years old correct in the beginning chapters. Well I decided to make the year they are in right now may 2014 so anyways therefore Daniel cannot be 3980 years old in could make it the future but I don't want to describe the future and making it the same as it is today is just boring. I'm changing the date in pervious chapter so if it said 1980 years old you are correct. Daniel is a pure blood vampire his dad and mom are the very firsts vampires. Vladimir is not he is 1960 years old he was changed when he was twenty. I making vampires stop aging at 20.

Daniel is 17 and so is Rebecca
Dominic is 15 and Melanie is 14.
Daniel changed Vladimir when he was twenty because they were best friends. So vlad is not a pureblood.
Any more questions just post them I'll try to answer them I don't have everything figured out yet so please be patient with me. Don't forget to vote!!! Share also I'm sure you've got friends who would love this book to!

Melanie's P.O.V. (Ch 17)

We step out of the arena and I can finally breath again. I feel arms wrap around me and I inhale the sent of my mate. "I'm glad you're okay. I don't know what I would've done if you were gone." Dominic says trailing kisses down my neck and shoulder. I shiver and he stops abruptly, stepping away from me. "I'll walk you home." He says, but I grab his arm.
"Let's give Rebecca and Daniel some space. We could go to your house. Besides I really want out of these disgusting clothes." He nods, and we walk hand in hand. I got butterflies in my stomach as we approach his house. I've been to his house before, but when his family wasn't home.
"So, you're a princess." Dom says nudging my arm, I wanted to run the other direction.
"How'd you find out?" I ask slightly irritated. Dominic must've notice my irritation because he lets out a soft chuckles.
"At the arena they said Daniel was a prince, so that makes you a princess." He says with a mischievous smile. I roll my eyes, and stick my tongue at him.
"Don't start treating me differently just because I'm a princess. I get that from a lot of people, I don't need it from you." I grunt stomping towards the house, it was gorgeous, there are tall white pillars by the double oak doors, the windows has red shudders attached to them, and the steps are made out of marble. I can't believe that I was going to live here one day. The thought just made me smile. My phone buzzes, and I take it out of my pocket. Why didn't I use this to call Dominic? I guess I forgot it was there. It's a text from Rebecca saying she needed me to go get some clothes from her old apartment.
Dom came up behind me to look at him. "I already treat you different because your my mate. There's nothing you can do about that, princess." Before I could reply the front doors were flung open. A man that looked like an older version of Dominic stood in front of us.
"Where have you been? You might be the next alpha but I can take that away." The man said clearly angry.
Dominic stiffened and turned to the man. "I was out with my mate. Melanie meet my dad. Dad this is Melanie my mate." Dom replied pushing me towards his dad slightly. His father's face lightened a little bit but then he got a whiff of what I was.
"She's a bloodsucker!" He screamed and Dom shoved me behind him. Dominic's father turned into his wolf and growled at me.
"Don't touch her or I'll rip your head off." Dom said clearly angry. And I thought my family was screwed up. Dom's father took off towards the woods and Dom turned to me. "Go inside, I'm going to have a little chat with him." He says but I grab his arm.
"You can't order me around. I might be your mate but I'm not going to be ordered around!" I yell at him and he kisses my forehead.
"I wasn't trying to order you around. It was more of a suggestion." He chuckled and I released his arm. I walked inside and he took off towards the woods.
I walk into the kitchen, and grab a peach, and sat on a stool by the island. "Are you and my brothers boyfriend/girlfriend?" A tiny girl asked stepping into the kitchen. She has brown hair that are in pig tails, she had hazel eyes, and she has a purple dress on.
"Yea, I mean I think so. What's your name?" I ask and she giggles running over to me.
"I'm Patria, but my brother calls me Tria. What's your name?" She says taking a bit of the chocolate chip cookie in her hand.
"I'm Melanie, not to be nosy but how old are you?" She swallows her cookie and gives me a huge grin.
"I'll be six next November. How old are you?" She asks and I wonder what I should tell her. "I'm 14, where's your mommy? Shouldn't she be looking for you?" Her grin fades and Tria starts crying. What do I do now? "Hey, Tria want to play a game?"
I set her down and bend down to her level. "What kind of game?" She asks in between sniffles.
"Hide and seek, do you know how to play?" She bobbles her little head excitedly. "I wanna hide, you count!" She squeals running away.
I shook my head and turned to see Dominic leaning on the door frame.
"That was very enlightening." He chuckles walking towards me. He wraps his strong arms around me, and I wrap mine around his torso.
"How so?" I ask and he kisses my forehead. He lets out a sigh before smiling.
"It showed me how good you are with children, that's all." He said while he breathes in the scent of a pot toast in the oven.
"I don't think your father likes me much." I point out remembering what happened a few moments ago. Dominic slides his fingers through his silky brown hair.
"He's just bitter that's all. He'll come around, maybe. But if he doesn't well then I guess it's his loss." He looks at me and if I could, I knew I would be blushing. "I'll play with my sister so you can get changed and do what ever else you need to do. You can use my room if you'd like." Dom says, leading me up the stairs.
"You don't need to guide me upstairs. I have been here before." I giggle, patting his cheek. I walk into his room and shut the door behind me. His bed is right across from the door, the bathroom was to the right, and his closet was to the left. His room was green and white. I took the royal blue outfit off, and got my clothes from Dom's walk in closet. I grab my corset styled black and red top, my black skinny jeans, and my red converse. I slip them on my body and flop on Dom's bed. I inhale his scent and instantly relax, it's weird how that can happen. There was a knock at the front door so I take that as my cue to go back downstairs. When I get down there Dom is talking to a woman with blonde hair. Rage boils inside me as I stomp over to them.
"Are you sure you can babysit?" Dom asks, looking slightly worried. Who the hell is this girl? "I'm sure Dominic. She's my niece and you need to get out of here while your father is in his mood. And who might this be?" The woman states finally registering I am there, lurking in the shadows. Dom turned to me and threw his arms around me pulling me to him. "This is Melanie, she's my mate." He says excitedly, a huge grin on his face. He looks at me and probably senses something is wrong. "Mel, this is my Aunt Crystal. She volunteered to babysit Tria for me so I can hang with you." Dom said and I instantly feel guilty.
"It's very nice to meet you, Melanie." Dom's aunt says smiling at me. "You kids better be off before the grumpy old wolf gets back. Congrats on finding your mate, Dominic." She said her smile never faltering.
"Aunty Crystal!"A tiny voice yells and Tria prounces on her aunt. "I won Domy!!" Patria says, giggling and Dom smiles.
"I guess you did, squirt. I got to go but I'll see you later, okay." Dom says, and Tria nods her head. Dom pats her head and she launches herself off her aunt. I thought she'd hug her brother, but she gives me a hug instead. "I like you. Take care of my brother he's always getting into trouble." She giggles, then releasing me. I chuckle and I tell her I would. We say our goodbyes quickly and leave.
"Well two out of three is good." Dom states walking with our hands intertwining.
"What?" I raise my eyebrow completely clueless.
Dominic lefts out a soft chuckle,"Two of my family members love you as much as I do. I'd say that was an accomplishment." He whispers in my ear, kissing my forehead. We walk for a while, when we stumble upon a lake. Then something dawns on me.
"Dom, where's your mom?" I hesitate and I regretted it once I see the look on Dom's face.
He didn't have his usual smile. "She's dead, Mel. Vampires killed her two days after Tria was born." He says, causing his voice to crack. Well, that explains why his father hated me. I pull him into a hug.
"I'm so sorry, Dom. I see why your father hates me. And honestly, I don't know why you don't." I say and he pulls out of our hug to stare at me.
"Mel, I could never hate you. And my father shouldn't either. It was a specific vampire that killed my mother, it wasn't you. He shouldn't discriminate against a whole species because one fucked up." He finishes still staring at me. He has a point, but I know I hate witches for what that one did. "I love you, princess. And nothing you can do is going to change that." He said and he kissed my lips. The kiss is gentle and tender.
"I love you, too." I gasp coming up for air.
"Shit!" I yell when I remember Rebecca's text. "I completely forgot. I have to go to Rebecca's old place to get some of her stuff." I say to him practically ripping my hair out and, Dom smiles. "What?" I grunt at him.
"You're cute when you are flustered. I'll go with you, I'm not letting you go anywhere by yourself anymore. You are either going with me or Daniel." He replies grabbing my hand.
"I was with Rebecca, I technically wasn't alone. And if I choose to do something by myself I will. I'm not a dog that you can command to what you want them to do." I sneer, stubbornly taking my hand back.
"Fuck it, Mel! I don't want anything to happen to you. Can't you at least do what I said for me?" He says pinning me to a tree. "I almost lost you tonight and I just can't lose someone else close to me. I'd die without you." He lets out a soft whimper, and our faces were mere inches apart.
"Okay, fine. I'll have a freaking security detail if you want." I say with sarcasm, rolling my eyes. Dom's smile came back, and he kisses behind my ear.
"Was that so hard, princess?" He whispers and I smile at him.
"We should probably go get Rebecca's stuff." I reply my voice huskier than it usually was. He steps away, and held his arm up.
"Okay, well let me escort you there, princess." He says acting like the gentlemen I knew back in the day. I took his arm and chuckle.
"Thank you kind sir." I say in a proper tone, he takes my hand bringing my knuckles to his lips.
"Anything for a gorgeous lady like yourself." He replies and we walks to Rebecca's.
We arrive and we I mean I had to break into her apartment. "You tell no one what I just did. Daniel doesn't know I can pick locks and I'd like to keep it that way." I said and Dom holds his arms up in surrender.
"Scouts honor, I won't tell a soul." He says and smiles at me.
"Dom, you were never a scout." I chuckle, putting a strand if hair behind my ear. He rolls his eyes, moving behind me as I glide to Rebecca's room. I throw her clothes into a duffel bag I found. Her clothes were nice, but I like mine better. I took the liberty to look around her room. There wasn't much but something caught my eye. It is a piece of paper that has a date circled on it. In red it says My birthday on May 16. Shit! It's almost Rebecca's birthday.
I walk out of her bedroom and Dom was leaning on the counter with his arms crossed. I take a moment to look at him. His jeans hang low on his waist, his shirt hugs his chest, and I just want to run my fingers through his hair. He looks up from the floor and grins at me. "Got everything?" He asks and I nod.
We walk out and Dom leans down to my ear. "You look much better now that your out of that blue shit. Your stunning." He whispers which made me shiver and he walks past me towards Daniels house. I caught up to him and I put my hand up to stop him from walking.
"That's not fair. Why do you always do that?" I stomp my foot irritated.
He chuckles and steps closer. "Because I love to see you all flustered and irritated. Especially, if I'm the cause of it." He replies with a smirk in his lips. I step closer and lean into him. He stiffens and I lick his neck. I step back and he stumbles, almost falling over.
"Ditto, I'll bet I can beat you to Daniels house." I say and take off towards the house. I run in vampire speed, not caring if Dom was following. I love running it is how I feel free. There was no limitations and it helps me escape.
Out of no where I'm tackled. We roll around but I land on top of the attacker with my fangs extended and my eyes turn blood red. "Whoa! Its me, princess." Dom says chuckling and I quickly relax.
"Damn it, Dom! That wasn't funny. I was attacked more than twice in the last week. Why would you do something so fucking stupid!?!" I yell getting off of him and picking Rebecca's bag back up. I brush the dirt off of it and sigh in relief when Dom wraps his arms around me. I am still pissed at him, but his closeness makes me feel safe.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." He replies in a seductive tone, kissing my head. I inhale his scent and feel my nerves settle.
"I know you didn't. The house is up a head." I reply shaking him off, already missing his warmth. But I was going to let him sweat this one out. It serves him right for giving me a heart attack.
We walk up the steps and Dom is completely silent. He has a frown on his face. We face each other and I kept mussel from smiling. "I still love you, Dom. But you are gonna have to make up for what you did." I say shrugging.
He steps closer to me. "What do I have to do?" He asks a twinkle in his eye.
"I'm sure you'll figure it out." I say leaning into him. "I love you, princess." Dom whispers in my ear. He is about to kiss me when I look up to see a very pissed off Daniel towering over Dominic. Oh shit! Not again!
