Mine

Chapter 12 // Mon-Hell

That night things changed a little, they went to Lena's again. Abandoning her apartment when the boys left. Today they decided it was time for an evening walk, the sky was clear. And temperature didn't matter to both since they both no problems with that. When they finally arrived home, or Lena's home they immediately went to bed. Kara being clearly exhausted and Lena being the nice fiancee she is urging Kara to go to bed.

When Kara finally was finished changing there was a knock on the door. They both didn't know who it was so together they made their way down. Lena not wanting Kara alone and Kara just being her curious self. When finally are downstairs Lena opens the door. Before she can react she gets punched in the face. "That's for using my mate." Kara is being smart and decides to not come into view so that Mon-El doesn't know she is here. Another punch, luckily for Lena it doesn't affect her one bit. "That's for claiming my property." 

Lena raises an challenging eyebrow and asks "Your property?" Mon-El growls and says "Kara. She is mine." Lena shakes her head and chuckles "Ah, there is where you are wrong. Kara is my property as I am hers. So, Mon-El of Daxam it would be smart for you to leave. Since I am more powerful than you, and I don't want it to get nasty around my fiancee." "Your fiancee?! No she can't. She is mine." He growls again and Lena gets punched again. Lena suddenly turns to Kara and says "Sorry darling, but I need to set some things straight. You can go to our room whenever you want."

Kara gulps her saliva down and nods. That's a good enough sign for Lena to bite Mon-El, who roughly walked past her and is now walking towards Kara. He screams from the pain but gets silenced by Lena since she put a hand on his mouth. Kara just stares wide-eyed towards her. Not knowing if this is that cool... and attractive. Because it is absolutely awful. He just slowly bleeds while Lena keeps drinking more and more. Kara can't take it anymore so she says in this demanding, low voice "Enough! Lena that's enough, no need for more." 

Lena immediately listen to her demand and lets go of Mon-El. Suddenly Lena is beside Kara and narrows her eyes while looking at Mon-El. She speaks up with this voice she always has when she does something to somebody, giving them commands "Mon-El, you will forget about what happened here and leave this house to never come back." Mon-El quickly nods and turns on his heels to leave. When the is out the door Kara lets out a relieved breath. 

Lena quickly turn to her, her lips are red but she didn't spill a drop of blood. "I am sorry for that, love. I know you probably hate it. But I can't change much about it. I need to feed otherwise I die or will attack you. And breaking my teeth is something bad." Kara slowly nods, yes she needs to accept that this is the new real. It will take some time to adjust but Lena will probably will support her along the way.

Having Mon-El off her back is something good, maybe she didn't get him precisely off her back but he won't return if that's what Lena's command does. Lena steps a bit closer and moves a bit of Kara's hair out of the way. "I will always be sorry if you ever need to see something like that, but you know me now. Protecting you... that will something that makes me live. Makes me feel, because you do that to me." Kara nods again and kisses Lena. When their tongues involve she tastes that coppery taste. Blood. But she doesn't care. If this is one of the downsides she needs to accept it.

She needs to learn to love it, because it makes Lena human. Even when she isn't a human anymore. Or never was one. But it makes her able to live, to not be perfect. Because nobody can be perfect. Not even Magdalena Evangeline Luthor. And for Kara that's good enough. Because she tries, she tries to be the best for Kara. Even though she doesn't need to.

When they finally return to bed Kara quickly falls asleep with this smile on her face. She is happy to have Lena in her life, who tries to be better even though is pretty great already. Something Mon-El didn't do. Nor will ever be able to truly do. It's something Kara truly likes about Lena. And in the end it makes her happy and content.
