One x One discussion

((No, it's fine. Same over here.))

"Well," Vladmir continued whispering, even though no one would hear them. Even if any of his employees were there, he usually talked to himself anyway and they wouldn't think it strange. "I have an idea but I don't know if you'll be okay with it. I also have a back-up plan in case you don't." He shrugged one shoulder, gently kissing her neck.

~_>_<_~

"Yeah, typically a 'hi' is replied with something of the like." The demon rolled her eyes, looking down at Zephyr's body. "What the hell is she wearing?" it murmured with slight surprise, though it was overruled by excitement, and it looked up at Aidan with a creepy sparkle in it's eyes. "Did she finally come to her senses? How much did you pay her? Or... pay her father?"

It looked him up and down, now narrowing it's eyes slightly. "A little young, aren't you? Nineteen? Twenty? Where are we?" It wiggled it's eyebrows. "How long has this been going on?"

((I hate being sick. :( ))

Olivia started to sigh, but it quickly changed to a soft moan when he kissed her neck. She turned her head slightly to give him better access to the sensitive skin of her neck. She both wanted to know and dreaded hearing his plan. She should ask what it was, she knew, but she could not. The mere thought of him being gone terrified her, saddened her beyond belief. How had this happened in so short a time? Less than a day. They'd known each other less than a day.

~*~*~*~*~*~

"Yes, of course," Aiden murmured. He frowned at the strange being's questions, but finally answered them all.

"I did not pay either of them anything," he said in an angry tone. "I am older than I look," he said, smiling widely and letting his fangs slide into place. "How long has what been going on? We aren't together, if that's what you mean." Not officially.

He didn't like the way this demon looked at him or the way she spoke about Zephyr. Or him for that matter.

((Ack, me too. I hope you get feeling better :( ))

Vladmir continued spreading small kisses across her neck, pausing between them to speak, even though she had not asked what his idea was. "How many are part of this, 'Guild'? Are they all leopards?" He smirked while kissing her neck over and over again, his fingers lightly tracing over her arm.

~_>_<_~

"Obviously not 'together'." The demon shrugged, stepping a bit closer to him. "Zephyrine doesn't do that, or at least she's never had the chance. What I mean to ask, is how long has she been granting you... favors?" It spoke slowly, trying to choose the right words in the right language.

"I don't care how old you are, but you should be grateful she didn't struggle too much from me. I'm much more fun than she is." It smirked, arching one eyebrow.

((Thanks.))

"I don't know," Liv admitted breathlessly. "Hundreds. Maybe thousands. Of all types of shifters, and even a few humans." She shuddered with pleasure as he continued to kiss her neck. Goosebumps formed on her arm where he traced over it and she shivered. "Vladmir," she moaned softly, already wanting him again. Just the simplest touch had her ready for him, wanting him desperately. Would it always be like this? Was this part of what it meant to be soul mates?

~*~*~*~*~*~

"Favors? Like, sexual favors you mean? We've never done more than kiss." Yet, he added silently. They'd admitted to their desire for one another, but had had no chance to act on it before She took over.

Aiden seriously doubted she was more fun than Zephyr, though he was sure she thought so. "Oh?" he asked, feigning interest. "Do tell."

((Sorry it took so long...))

"Wow." Vladmir dropped back, his head hitting the pillow with a thump. "I think I actually felt that," he muttered, rubbing a hand across his forehead. "So, killing that idea. Are they all over the world? Or do they have one main base?" He hoped her could protect her, take her away from them if he couldn't hunt them all down, at least in penance for killing his own kind.

How would they feel then?

~_>_<_~

The demon stared at him blankly, realizing he wasn't interested in what she had to say at all. She looked from his desk then around the room, noting that there were no windows, and the only door looked heavy -it was probably locked- so there would be no leaving. Not that she wasn't strong enough, but knowing she had no chance to fight Aidan, she scowled. She returned her gaze to him, narrowing her eyes.

"I don't supposed you'll just... let me leave, now will you? Okay. And you don't want to hurt 'me' because it would really end up only hurting Zephyrine. What do you want?"

((It's fine. Stuff happens.))

Liv shrugged. "I've no idea. I only know where I get missions from and where to turn them in. But I think I've heard someone mention other locations.

"Enough about that," she murmured, moving to straddle him. She leaned over to kiss him on the lips, beginning to rub her body against his.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Aiden snorted. "Hell no I'm not going to let you leave. There's no telling how much trouble you'd cause out there.

"I want Zephyrine back. I want her to be rid of you."

((Thanks.))

"So you don't always kill the subjects? you bring them back?" Vladmir questioned, pondering this new possibility as he pressed his lips to the corner of hers, setting his hands on her waist. "Or do you bring back... trophies?" He had a hard time ignoring what she was doing, but he was still trying to think of a way to rid the Guild. From everything.

~_>_<_~

The demon sighed, leaning against the wall and folding her arms over her chest, now annoyed. "Look, I've been wanting a new body to possess for a while. Zephyr's getting... too old for me. I'd prefer newer flesh. I know of a way to leave her, but it's a fussy process. Could, and probably would, kill her, if not just weaken her immensely. Other medical problems have followed, as well. Comatose, cancer."

The demon shrugged. "Not that I care what happens to her. But I know her father would, probably. And you."

((Crap. I thought I had replied here already... Maybe it got eaten and I didn't notice... o.O ))

Olivia stopped moving long enough to answer his question. She couldn't focus on anything else with what she was doing to his body. And her own. "No, they're always killed. It's a trophy, as you call it that is turned in. Sometimes the head, but more often a ring or some other trinket known to be exclusively theirs.

"So do you have a ring of some sort? I could easily take that back to the guild and show it off. They'd believe me; I've never failed them before." She smiled at the thought. She didn't like tricking her employer, but she couldn't kill Vlad either. But her mother needed the money from this job for the final payment on the mortgage.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Aiden smiled, flashing fang at her. "I could take care of that problem; conversion kills all disease.

"But she should have a choice in the matter. If she doesn't want to be a vampire, I won't force it upon her." I will not do to anyone what was done to me. "Is there any way I can talk to Zephyr for a bit? Explain all this to her, so she can decide for herself. Or am I stuck with you for a while yet?"

((Ugh; I hate when that happens. Or if I'm in the middle of a really long post and it decides that "Goodreads is over capacity!"))

"I do, but it' not a trademark item that anyone knows of. Unless people who I employ here are more on the spy-operative side of things, that is." Vladmir sighed, pursing his lips in thought before arching his eyebrows at Olivia.

"Is that out of the question?" he inquired, slightly teasing but moreover serious. If someone worked at his home and had access to his things? Along with his vampiric schedule? It would be a bad situation, though mostly for them...

~_>_<_~

"You're stuck with me..." the demon muttered, still thinking the situation over. "But she can automatically shift into me -not that she's ever done it before." It shrugged, narrowing it's creepily bright eyes for a moment. "I don't know if that would work, the turning-her-into-a-vampire idea. Well, it could, but any other demon would be welcome to possess her if wished.

"It'd almost be like inviting another into her, maybe even several." Furrowing dark eyebrows in thought, the demon turned it's attention towards the door. "You know you have more than one demon in your club now, right?"

((Do you have an interest in doing another RP? I understand if you don't but I have a small idea -plus I'm bored as heck.))

((Maybe. I have lots of RPs going already, and I'm rather behind on some of them. But it really depends on the idea. ^_^ ))

((About a girl (some supernatural creature) who has cancer and an assassin who is hired to kill her? Maybe even a teacher/student as well?
And I totally get that -_- It seems everyone is so hurried to reply until I have nothing better to do.))

((Why is an assassin after her? Just because she's a supernatural?))

((Probably; I hadn't really thought that part out.))

((Okay... How about she's something really rare, like a mermaid? And he's been hired to capture her for display? Only the people who hired him don't know she's sick and... I don't know after that.))

((Sure (siren or mermaid would make sense). Does that mean you would do it? If so, could I be the girl?))

Olivia shrugged, then moaned, her eyes sliding closed as the action shifted her body against his. "I don't know," she murmured, bowing her head. She fell silent before going back to rubbing herself along his body, soon starting to moan softly once again.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Aiden laughed. "Of course. My head bouncer is one. One of the bartenders, too. I pay them well and they can easily put a stop to any fights that start. Some of the patrons may be as well. So long as they follow my rules, I have no problems with them. But they aren't possessing some unwilling human either.

"How can I prevent any other demon from possessing her? There has to be a way."

((Yeah. Can we do doubles again? Maybe the second one could be student/teacher?))

Vladmir moved his shoulder in a sort of a shrug, deciding to drop the subject until morning. He had made his body used to being up during the day, and had been able to cover most of it if he had to be out in the sun during then, or planned it so he didn't have to on a sunny day, choosing clouds and rain over a human's sun and shine.

He turned Olivia gently over so he wavered over her. "You're so... ready for me. I can't decide if that's a good thing or not," he teased, kissing her again.

~_>_<_~

The demon set her eyes to narrow, placing her hands on her hips with a shrug. "There's probably a way. I can leave some scrap of a sign of myself behind, to continue claiming her as mine. But I've never done that before and don't know how well it would work."

((Sure. Would you mind making the topic?))

((Sure. Give me a sec. Or several hundred. Sorry for the delay.))

"Good," Liv whispered as his lips descended onto hers once more. She wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist. Shouldn't I be in pain? Isn't the first time supposed to hurt? It hurt a little, but not as much as I thought it was supposed to. Mostly it's just been pleasure. Such exquisitely torturous pleasure.

~*~*~*~*~*~

"There has to be a way. I don't care who I have to talk to, who I have to bribe or cajole or threaten, I will find a way," Aiden said forcefully. This is crazy. I've known her all of a few days. And yet... it's not crazy. I don't know why, but this feels right. Perfect. Meant to be.

Yeah, I'm losing it.

Vladmir chuckled against her lips before kissing her again, this time more passionately, rubbing her directly now. Her skin was soft. Seductively soft; dangerously soft. He could only imagine what her leopard form's fur. Would it be softer? That might be a small problem for him. To have one person have so much control over a being that was used to having the most control?

~_>_<_~

"They might not even want her. Vampire bodies are considered tainted," the demon said, hoping to anger him enough to either loose his temper or make her physically leave the room. "More impure than literal demon flesh. It'd probably be easier to just try getting rid of me."

((I do want to continue, but I'm suffering from major burnout right now. I'm so sorry I didn't let you know sooner. I only just realized that was the problem a couple of days ago. I'm hoping to get back into it soon, but I wouldn't count on it.

It's fine if you don't want to continue and/or don't want to wait on me. I understand.))

((I'm sorry it's taken so long for me to reply. I took a break from Goodreads for a few weeks, and now I'm slowly coming back. I would like to continue this, but if you don't wish to, as you said, I understand.))

((I have to take the occasional break myself, so I understand. I want to continue this one. Unfortunately, I have zero inspiration right now. :( ))

((It's okay! And I saw your post on our other topic. Whenever you're ready, I'm okay to start it back up! Just take your time.))

((Thanks for understanding.))

((Of course.))

Olivia whimpered softly, enjoying his touch. Maybe a little too much, honestly. But if he was her soul mate, shouldn't it be this way? Maybe. She just wasn't sure. All she was sure of at this moment was how good he made her feel, how right it felt to be in his arms.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Aiden smirked. "You did just say vampire bodies are considered tainted. So if I turned her, wouldn't you just leave?"

((Sorry it's short. My post on the other one will be longer.))

((I just realized you replied to these! Thank you, and I'm sorry for not noticing until now!))

"I promise I will find a way to be with you, even if it means giving up immortality," Vladmir promised Olivia, whispering against her neck. "I want to be with you." That much surprised him. He'd always been the playboy type. In fact, he couldn't remember an affair that lasted more than three nights. But he'd only known this one for a few hours. Barely that.

~_>_<_~

"Don't threaten my host like that. It's disgusting. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt too much more if I just killed her instead. What would you do then?" The demon tilted her head to the side, her eyes glowing even more. "I honestly believe you would have more fun if you kept me around rather than her."

The demon stepped forward, tapping her finger on his shoulder lightly. "How about this: I stay around, get rid of Zephyrine, and you get her body for whatever you want, while I still have my host."

((I've got a bit of writer's block on these. Remind me again in a couple of days. :( ))

((Okay! I don't mind waiting :) ))

((*facepalm* I just realized she already told him that she's more fun than Zephyr. Sorry.))

((^_^
These will probably be short. I apologize in advance.))

"You would give up your immortality for me?" Liv asked in an awed whisper. "You want to be with me that much? I... I don't know what to say." She sounded ready to cry, but she was grinning widely.

~*~*~*~*~*~

"What do you mean 'get rid of Zephyrine'? I don't like the sound of that." The demon was amusing, but also annoying at times. Like right now, when he wanted to strangle her for even suggesting what he suspected she was suggesting.

((It's okay! Mine will be shorter as well.))

"I would do anything for you," Vladmir told her, rolling onto his side and leaning on his elbow. "I know we just met today, and I can't explain it well, but I trust you. And that's quite rare for me. I don't like most people," he explained, quirking a smile.

~_>_<_~

"Oh, just the usual. Basic soul possession. Maybe even killing it." She said it as if it were nothing, assuming Aiden would possibly change his mind and agree with her. "It would be for the best, I promise."

((Will get to this as soon as I can. I don't have internet at home right now, so I'm limited for time. As I can only reply to one, I'll reply to our other one.))

((Will reply after I sleep. I let myself get distracted again.))

((ARGH! Okay, I just spent an hour and a half on editing a short story for someone and got all of three pages done. I'm ready to scream. And my head hurts! If I didn't know better, I'd swear the guy wasn't a native speaker of the language. o.O

Warning: Rant ahead. Click at your own risk. (view spoiler)[What really pisses me off, though, is this: he has an author page. He's published this garbage! Hell, I downloaded the story I'm currently editing a week ago because it was free! I'm so glad I didn't try to read it before now. Okay, rant over. For now. Thanks for listening. (hide spoiler)]))

Olivia grinned. "I trust you, too," she whispered, reaching out a hand to stroke his chest. She was delighted that he'd finally accepted that they were soulmates. Not even an hour before, he'd openly doubted it.

"Since it is night now, should we try to sleep? Or do you have a better idea?" she asked, a wicked gleam in her eyes.

~*~*~*~*~*~

"Hell no. No killing her. She is not an it!" Aiden started off speaking in a calm tone, but was nearly shouting at the end. "You are the one who should leave. She was born in that body after all, it is hers," he said, his voice back to a more moderate level, though he was obviously still angry.

((I absolutely hate having to read terrible writing, even if it's my own. It hurts to see. But honestly, I think some people are amazing with their writing, but if they're lazy or not willing to put their mind to it, and it just turns out really shitty.))

"Hmm, I would love to spend this entire night with you, and I'm saying that we can't, but I have something you might want to see." Vladmir stood up, only bothering to pull his pants on for the sake of anyone who might see him through the window. Normally he wouldn't care, but with Olivia around... Pants were a better idea.

"I used to be a sort of... book keeper for the twelve leaders of the clans. I quit a long time ago, it was extremely boring. Anyway, I still have some of the leftovers from when I worked for them. I could bring the information here if you like." He winked at her. "Or you could join me."

~_>_<_~

The demon sighed, seeing no current break that she could bypass with his opinion. "This body was given to me by her owner. Which, is clearly not you. I will leave for now. But I make no promise of not giving your dear Zephyr's location to her father."

With that, Zephyrine's eyes closed and she wobbled a little bit on feet, her body shaking slightly. She opened her eyes again with a frown on her face. "Goddamn it," was all she said, leaning against the desk with a shudder.

((Sorry I haven't replied to this one yet. My brain is not working at full capacity right now... I'm pretty sure I know why, too.

My own bad writing is the worst for me. I know I can do better, so I get upset with myself when I'm not writing well. That's what editing and rewriting are for.))
