<span style="color: #BF0000">"Just how did they get hell creatures like yourself to behave?"</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #40FF40">"Hell Creatures? That's a new one."</span>He said wondering what he had done to deserve that title already.<span style="color: #40FF40"> "Yes, I suppose you could say I have a slither of hope for this all to hold strong and end the two centuries I've watched this city walk on egg shells between you humans and we creatures that go bump in the night. Even before it was confirmed we existed there were those who believed, there were legends, confirming it just made everything impossible to be denied, and as a result you and I as well as those two were selected to try and put a bandage on a gaping wound."</span>he said noticing that at some point she had seemed to drift away mentally.<br/><br/>Cursing as he smelled the blood he turned toward the other vampyre fighting his own thirst he hoped the other man had enough self control or... was he begging the woman to kiss him? Glancing towards the widening gap leading to the outside world and mass of curious onlookers he turned away and pulled a black cloth from his pocket before holding it out to her without a word. No sense in scaring the poor woman, not that she wouldn't eventually see his porcelain fangs anyways. He however was curious as to how the other man believed a kiss would save them from the death warrant his betrothed had practically signed for the lot of them not even an hour into their union.<br/><br/><div style="text-align: center;">***********</div><br/><br/><br/>One moment she had been pleading for him to understand her need to protect her loved ones and the next she could see the instant the hunger hit him. Glancing over at the other woman she wondered if this was going to be the end of them already and the doors opening to the media outside would be broadcasting their deaths to the entire city. Turning back to him she could see the suffering again, worse than it had been before their dance,<span style="color: #BFFF00"> "Motto, are you..."</span>She began realizing he still held her hand.<br/><br/><span style="color: #40FF00">"Kiss me." </span>He was pleading, everything about him screamed that they were in trouble. She had been asking him to help her protect her family and now he was asking her for help in doing so. perhaps if they could stay away from the other woman during all of this they may actually survive. Hell they hadn't even gotten out of the ceremony room before all their lives were in danger. She realized he had continued pleading and even tried reaching for her while her mind had veered off course.<br/><br/>Fear, surprise, and curiosity coursed through her like wild fire. If he was about to lose control she had no choice.<span style="color: #BFFF00"> "Anything that will help."</span>She said wondering if this would actually help as she was easing closer hoping this kiss wouldn't lead to that of death. Rising up on her toes slightly as he was taller she met his lips curious as to if kissing a vampire would be any different than a human man. Would she feel the sharp fangs behind the lips?
