Vlad felt her twitch as if she was going to turn and hit hi, he half expected it if he was honest but she didn't, she relaxed into him listening to his heart beat, he was shocked buy happy at this turn of event,he looked down into her beautiful eyes for the first time in his life he felt the full brunt of the waging war his body and mind held hate her or love her he felt the two emotions clash, "How can something that seems so wrong, feel so right?" she asked him but before he could answer he felt her soft lips meet his, it was like nothing he had felt before, it felt as though there was electricity running from his lips down to his very core, the faint taste of her lips felt as though it was magnified one thousand fold, the scent he found himself fond of when he wrapped his arms around her seemed seduce his soul, he made his decision right there and then, he would love her, he would keep her safe from any danger, he would do everything in his power to win her heart.<br/><br/>After the brief kiss Vlad pulled back and gently with one finger pulled loose strands of hair out of Violets eyes and tucked them behind her ear "you know your very beautiful, I can honestly say I've never meet anyone who matches you", he leaned in again and slowly kissed her lips reaching under her and lifting her into the kiss pulling her as close as he physically could as though he was scared to lose her.<br/><br/>---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Vlad heard the small blade being pulled from the girls boot, he saw the fear in his men's eyes as she arose the twisted smile was back on his face as he spun on the spot replacing his heart with hers at the very last moment, her face mere inches from his, his black eyes starring into hers that were now sparkling with tears as he released to old woman's neck letting her crash to the floor, the young warrior scrambled along the floor  to the old woman sobbing begging her forgiveness, what Vlad had said was true he didn't care for the people of his land, if they were slaughtered then so be it, but not for the reason he told her, he didn't care because they shunned him a treat him like the monster he normally kept deep down but now had its perfect place in the battle field, the thing now contorting his face into the smirk at the sobbing girl.<br/><br/>Vlad snapped back to himself after a few moments the blood lust left him, the monster had feed and was content for now Vlad reached down holding his sword near the sobbing girls head and pulled a necklace off the old woman bearing her royal seal as proof of his kill, Vlad stepped back quickly smashed his sword off one of the men's shields and ordered them to depart, Vlad looked over his shoulder at the bleeding girl, he felt sorry for her, she lived for that woman, that family it was clear,<span style="font-style: italic">such a shame</span>he thourght to himself,<span style="font-style: italic"> she is beautiful, she'd have made a great wife, gave beautiful children, and now she'd be consumed by hatred</span>Vlad sighed she'd become like him and he knew it, a weapon of war and nothing more, he pulled out a small first aid bag and tossed it at her, fixing his face with the same grimace of a smile that mocked with arrogance, he wanted her to believe it, if she took it for pitty she'd refuse it she'd toss it away, this was the only thing he could give her before they meet again, then he'd end her suffering "such a waste" she said in a small voice as he walked away his hair billowing behind him as he left her in peace to morn.
