(YN) turned off his saber and looked to the V.I.P booth of the training arena. The Sith had wrapped up another day of training. He sensed another presence along with Lenore, a human one. He jumped onto the V.I.P booth. " Enjoying the show? " (YN) asked with a smirk. " Oh yes. " Lenore replied. " It was quite a spectacle. I even brought my pet to watch. "  Lenore stood from her seat and motioned Hector to come closer. He stood from his seat and walked to the two. " (YN), this is Hector, our forgemaster and my pet. " She introduced. Hector was looking down the entire time, annoying Lenore. She softly took his hand and brought it to (YN)'s for a handshake. It was just a lifeless as Hector's face. No effort at all was needed to sense how crippled and depressed he felt. " Good boy. " She said to Hector. " This is (YN), my bodyguard, among other things. "

She made (YN) turn his back to Hector then proceeded to wrap her arms around him and brought the Sith closer. Lenore then nuzzled her face in his neck. (YN)'s eyebrows furrowed in confusion over what was happening. She looked up and stared at Hector while she continued with the fellow vampire. " Lenore? " (YN) questioned. A hint of him beginning to enjoy it. Lenore stepped away. " Sorry you had to witness that, intimate moment. " She said sweetly to Hector.

The Sith internally chuckled. He could sense the sarcasm in her tone. Hector cringed from her gaze then looked away. Lenore clapped her hands together in joy. " I have an idea. " She said to the two of them. " (YN), please escort Hector to his workshop. You two should get acquainted on the way there. " (YN)  nodded " As you wish. " He said. " Hector flashed a glare to Lenore then turned around and went with (YN). He had no idea where Hector's workshop was so he let the forge master lead the way. " So you're the one who can make armies? " (YN) asked. He already knew the answer. Lenore had told him about her pet days ago but they never had a chance to meet. He could bet that Lenore had Hector about himself before. " Yes. " Hector replied. " Can you explain how you do it? " (YN) asked kindly. " I'll tell you about the force in return. " Hector looked up to (YN). His blank and depressed face managed a tiny smile. " It's simple dark magic really. " He explained. " All you have to do is forge a magic hammer then hit corpses with it. The corpses then turn into monsters with souls from hell. Is there magic in your world or is it only the force? " Yes. " (YN) replied. "  The force can be used in many ways. Some of them can be seen as magic. " Hector's eyes widened. " Could it be possible that the magic here is our own interpretation of the force? " He asked. " The Sith shook his head. " No. I only sense the force around me. The fact the force is still with me means my world may be neighbors to this one. "

The two had made it to the tower where Hector worked. " Thank you for the escort I guess. " Hector said. (YN) turned his back to leave when the Forgemaster called out to him. " I have one more question. " Hector began. " Why do you serve her? " The Sith turned back. " She's better than my previous master. " He said. " I'm tired of being bound to a mad old man and I sense you went through something similar with Dracula. " Hector started fidgeting with the ring on his left hand. The slave ring Lenore had slipped onto him during their night together. An angered expression on his face. " She made me into her pet! " He shouted. (YN) was surprised but quickly recovered. " She's more into your head than she was in mine! L-Lenore makes you that she cares about you when you're just another pe-" The now enraged (YN) forced pulled Hector to him and forced him onto his knees. The Forgemaster's eyes now wide in fear. (YN) bared his fangs and drew his saber. " I am not a pet like you! " He shouted. " We will see about this. " This Sith released his hold on Hector then stormed away. He would end this debate once and for all. (YN) would probe her mind and get the answers he wanted.

He knocked on the door to Lenore's room. (YN) had used the force to find her location. Lenore opened the door happily pulled (YN) in. " Look at you. " She purred. " My Dark Lord is taking the initiative to see me. " (YN) internally eye-rolled. " Lenore. " He started. " What am I to you? " The Sith had had a long time to think about his place with Lenore. His thoughts on her had varied over the time they had spent together. At first she was just a pawn to him but, they had bonded over time. Lenore saved him from death and he had pledged himself to her in return. There was a loophole around that too. Was it not the Sith way to kill the master when the apprentice has got everything he needed? " No. " (YN) thought. " This was an entirely different situation. " He was the only force user and Sith of this world. So there was room for change here. Sith lords had a long history of changing and adapting. They constantly showcased how truly flexible Sith philosophy compared to the Jedi. Plaguies himself gave up on the rule of two when he killed his master Tenebrous. The Munn Sith Lord had planned on finding the key to immortality and sharing it with his apprentice. Together, they would rule the galaxy together for an eternity.
" He was a fool. " (YN) thought. " To trust Palpatine to let him live long enough before he could unlock the secret to eternal life if it ever existed in (YN)'s dimension.

What did (YN) think of Lenore? He didn't really know. Never in his life had someone been truly showed affection to him before. The Sith didn't know how to react to it. That question would soon be answered. Lenore sat on her bed then took a deep breath. " I had a feeling you were gonna ask that, sooner or later. " (YN) grew impatient then clenched his right fist. " Am I just another pet project like Hector? " He asked exasperatedly. The Sith looked away from Lenore, knowing of the sight of her face would melt him. " No. " (YN). Lenore said. She stood from the bed. " You're my passion project. " The Sith turned to look back at her. Lenore's loving smile captivating his very being. " You're mine, (YN) " Lenore said. " Mine to love and hold forever. You've been treated horribly for your entire life. You deserve more. You deserve me. " She wrapped him in a tight embrace, holding him tight like she would never see him again. She looked up to him with teary eyes.

" Please tell me you feel the same. " She begged. (YN) looked down at her. He had finally figured out why she was warm in the cold of his aura, why he had felt an inner warmth the first time they touched hands. " Yes, Lenore. " (YN) gasped out. " I feel the same. " Lenore smiled as she let her Sith Lord wipe away her tears. The vampire girl snaked her arms to his neck and brought him closer as the two vampires engaged in a long and passionate kiss. No breath required due to the lack of life. She led him back towards the bed as they stayed locked together, their arms exploring each other's figure. That night, their bodies and minds became one.

It was more than mutual interest, it was mutual love.
