				It was night, night when she felt most at home, most safe. Annibyn Blaithin, Princess of Seelie pressed her hand against the windowpane for a moment her tricolor eyes fixed on the stars in the night sky as she wished for solace. Home was not home to one born of both courts, forever at home, yet forever outcasted from it at the same time. Princess Annibyn Blaithin MicRodthr turned away from the window, from the stars above that called to her and sighed to herself as she walked to the couch in her living room, laying down on it slightly as she looked back at the view.<br><br>A cascade of hair the color of summer wheat framed her face, soft and silky, reaching down her to hips, the strands golden, hazelnut and pale blond all woven together in a color that seemed to almost live by itself. Her skin was the soft sun kissed gold of the early dawn, a pale color but soft and warm none the less. Lashes of dark chestnut swept downward before opening again, revealing eyes the color of forget me nots at first glance, but beneath the glamour to make them so there was three circles. One the color of deep rich plum, then the color of spring violets, the last, around the pupil a lavender so soft and light it seemed like the stars themselves in its hazy glow.<br><br>Anni wore a dress styled in a classical style, empire waist and loose and flowing, a pretty soft purple that set off her creamy skin, and played up the colors of her eyes and hair. Her thoughts were upon the court she had left, the longing for home, to be away from the man made world of metal and machines. She felt so out of place, so overwhelmed and afraid at times. Yet her trailing thoughts were shattered with the breaking of the window glass that overlooked the waters edge just thirty feet from her house. She let out a cry of shock, throwing her arms up to shield herself, magic crackling out to throw up a weak shield.<br><br>Nigthhags flew through the window then, two and the girl found her breath caught in her chest. She was here, without weapons, just weak defenses in this building, unless of course she made it to her bedroom, that was where wards where. Yet blood trickled from her forearms, from the glass that had flown inward and she vaulted herself over the couch, moving with the grace that all her kind had as she tried to run for her room only to be hauled back by her hair. She let out a scream, thrashing, her magic prickling over her skin but she didn't have an active hand of power, there was no way to really defend herself.<br><br><em>Goddess help me!</em>

				Daric Durand was a man who could be called many things, and as he dematerialized with his brother on the outskirts of the city of Moffat. In about a few hundred more yards they would be squarely on the sandy beached surface of the city itself. From what they could see in the distance of the general structure, it was a place that anyone should be proud to call home. A home was something that they themselves could not say that they had. Of course, there was their family’s estate in the mountains, which they owned now thanks to their very hefty inheritance from their family’s fortune.. But since their father’s death, the ghosts that haunted their minds would not allow them to stay there. Not that they minded, though. Their job usually kept them travelling to lands near and far, but they never stayed in the same place for long. They were assassins, and very skilled ones at that. They travelled from town to town, seeking out new assignments.<br><br>Indeed, it was a new assignment that had brought them to this quaint little town. Two of them actually. What was more surprising was the fact that both assignments dealt with the same person. However, the tasks could not be further from each other on the spectrum. The intended target was the Princess of Seelie. The task, well, both of them were to either protect her or kill her, depending on which of her relatives sweetened the deal the most. Personally, Daric had been met with a good deal of hesitance on his brother Aleric’s part when he had first heard the details of both jobs. To him, there was nothing more disgusting than a grandfather trying to kill off his innocent granddaughter. Daric was a little more hesitant to not go against the king’s wishes for fear that they would get themselves into more trouble than the both of them could handle. Having more than 100 murders committed each, it was safe to say that they were wanted in many different far away lands. Though they took precautions to keep themselves as well hidden as they could manage, sometimes they just couldn’t help but be found out.<br><br>The one thing that people noticed with them right off the bat was that they were identical, at least in appearance. They were the first set of twins to be born into their family, according to their father who had traced their lineage all the way back to the Pre-Christ Era. Both men were identical except for one thing. Their eyes. Daric’s eyes were a diamond glazed shade with a navy blue rim, whilst Aleric’s were clearly a very light shade of green, with the same navy blue rims on them. They stood at six and a half feet tall. Their build was that of pure, well-honed muscle. Jet black hair went down to about an inch past their broad shoulders and was currently tied back with leather ties in a ponytail of sorts. They both had strong jaws, and the same lips and nose. When they smiled, they bore another feature that was a dead giveaway to what they were. When they opened their mouths, four sharp fangs could be seen coming out of their jaws, from the top and the bottom.<br><br>As they continued to make their way across the beach, Daric pulled the sides of his leather jacket closer to his massive body. Both of them oozed pure sinister and death in their auras that even the little creatures that were scampering along the beach made a point to steer clear of the two brothers. Up in the distance they could see the dim lights coming from what looked to be a small cottage up ahead. “Let’s go,” Daric said in a low voice, dematerializing away from his brother and reappearing a few feet away from the entrance of the house, with his brother following a mere short second later.<br><br>He growled when he looked up and saw her being attacked by creatures that were seemingly fierce. It was apparent that she was unarmed and defenseless to their attacks but still they carried on. He dematerialized and reappeared on the back of one of the creatures, reaching inside his jacket for his dagger. With a swift stab to the side of the neck, the creature crumbled to the floor. Aleric eyed the other one as it flew towards his brother, palming his throwing star. With a flick of his wrist, the star shaped metal was released into the air, the sleek whooshing sound evident as it made its way towards it’s target. When it hit, it sliced the creatures neck off cleanly, letting it fall to the floor with a thud.<br><br>Aleric watched the two bodies on the floor and placed his right hand on the center of one of the creatures. When he did, something nice happened. His hand started to glow a white, diamond color. As he did, a sizzling sound could be heard as the body slowly started to disintegrate into the air, fine particles disappearing into oblivion. Then he turned to the other one, repeating the same process over again, until there was nothing left in the room, but the two of them and the girl.<br><br>Daric glanced around and caught a glimmer of movement out of the corner of his eye coming from behind the couch. Slowly, her put back his dagger in his chest holster and walked over to the girl. Going behind the couch, he saw her crouched down and whimpering. “Are you hurt?” he asked her, his voice calm and kind, his eyes losing the sinister look they had taken on while he was fighting. Aleric joined his brother at the girl’s side. “She’s bleeding,” he told his brother. “I smell her blood,” he told Daric.

				Someone had come, someone had saved her. The Goddess had heard her plea and sent aid, although the girl couldn't see who it was, she was curl up on her side, most of her body turned toward the ground. Better to give the nigthhags her back to savage then her front, then her stomach where they could rip out her insides more easily. She heard a voice, a masculine sound of velvet, but the question he asked made her feel a touch of anger, and anger was what gave her the strength to turn her head to look at him. Even as a sidhe she would take time to heal from the claws of the night creatures.<br><br>"You smell blood, do you really need to ask that?" Her voice was a soft melody that filled the air, her voice was not perhaps the high sweet note that one would have expected from her. Rather it was a husky melody, showing perhaps her fertility goddess linage, it would easily provoke the thoughts of beds and pleasure. As her face turned, revealing the softly shaped beauty, the delicacy of her bone structure and the brilliance of one of her purple eyes. However the other one was plastered shut by the blood that ran down her forehead just above it, the claws having raked and cut open the pale skin of her forehead, matting down part of her hair.<br><br>Annibyn shifted, moving away from the two males, her breath catching slightly in her throat as she realized just how handsome her rescuers were. She licked her lips, tasting the coppery flavor of blood as it filled her mouth, her own blood. "Who are you?"<br><br>They were some manner of beings of power, they had to be. Only their powers weren't like hers, they weren't of the fae, and that made her uneasy, she couldn't tell who they worked for. But for the moment that didn't matter, she pushed herself up, her face contorting in pain as a gasp fled her lips when her back, with several claw marks like the one on her forehead, cuts opening further and blood dripping down. Yet still she rose, her eyes darkening as she worried her lower lip slightly, inhaling to brace herself. The intake of breath could draw the eye to the creamy expanse of her chest, her figure was perfect, because as sidhe she could be nothing other then perfect. High, generous breasts, sloping curves, long legs and all in proportions most women would kill for. She turned her back to them, making her way slowly toward the bathroom, stumbling and coming up against the wall, her body trembling as she fought back the urge to cry as the pain sliced through her. Even as a sidhe it would take her at least a few hours if not a full day to heal from the attack.<br><br>Still she made her way to the bathroom, bracing herself against the counter as she took a hand towel and wet it, lifting it, even though it made the pain slash through her again to lift her arms, to wipe at the blood staining the right side of her face. Either the handsome strangers would stay or go, either they would kill her or help her if they stayed. And there was nothing she could really do short of drawing wards in blood on the bathroom door. May the luck of the Goddess stay with her.

				Both of the man were dumbfounded at her sarcastic remarks towards them when all they were trying to do was help her. “Well isn’t she just a bundle of joy?” Daric muttered under his breath rolling his eyes. He had come into too many royals who had their heads stuck so far up their bottoms, that he was pretty sure that they would have to have it surgically removed. “She’s not had the best life,” Aleric muttered back at his brother. “Give her a break,” he said. “She’s just misunderstood…” He grinned up at his older brother. “Besides, I thought you liked a challenge?” he asked, replacing his throwing star back into his jacket with the rest of them.<br><br>Aleric glanced down the hallway and noticed that she was struggling to walk and the scent of her blood became stronger as she moved, meaning that she was losing more as they spoke. He saw her turn into what he guessed was either a bathroom or a bedroom and dematerialized from his brother’s side to see if she needed help cleaning up. “It would be a little bit more easier on you if you were to let someone else do it,” Aleric’s softer, but yet deep voice came from his place behind Annibyn.<br><br>Without waiting for her to respond, gently he placed his arms around her, and lifted her up in his arms, cradling her against his massive chest as he walked out of the room with her. He brought her back to the living room where his brother had just finished gathering up all the glass shards in a pile in the corner of the room where they would not be in anyone’s way.<br><br>Gently, he eased her down on the couch on her stomach. Taking out his knife, he cut away the rest of the fabric from the back of her gown so that he could get a better look at the damage done to her skin. When he saw what was done, he felt sick to his stomach. The claw marks when fairly deep into her skin and there were at least ten of them just on her back alone. He glanced up at his brother. “Watch her for a second,” he said, getting up and going back down the hallway to the bathroom that she was in. Poking around in her First Aid kit, he found that she had basically everything that he needed. Poking around further in her bathroom itself, he found a few washcloths which he soaked with warm water and wrung out tightly, bringing that back with him as well.<br><br>While he was gone, Daric watched her carefully, trying to assess the damage done to the rest of her body. “Do you think anything is broken?” he asked her softly. “I don’t think anything looks like it’s broken, but I could be wrong,” he told her. He reached out and gently moved her hair from her face, his fingers brushing over her cheek in the process as he investigated the damage done to her skin. Gently, he moved her hair yet again, this time to investigate the damage done to her back as well. He cursed silently under his breath and swore that he would kill them if they came back to harm her like this.<br><br>Aleric walked back into the room and got on his knees next to the couch. He studied the girl carefully, and decided that she was indeed very beautiful, which only served to confuse him more as to why her own grandfather would want her dead. “Don’t worry..you’re safe now,” he whispered, watching her face. “We won’t let them harm you again,” he told her. He looked at the washcloth in his hands and then back at her. “I’m just going to clean your back, alright?” he asked her softly.

				When one of the two appeared behind her she let out a soft sound of surprise, his words touching something deep inside her. How many times after a beating or duel had she gone off by herself to tend to her wounds. In the Seelie Court there was no room for heart it appeared, her days were spent alone and in fear outside of her time with the lower fae. Yet here was someone who seemed to be offering help. Only the brownies had helped her back home, and that was a secret, fearful help, fearful of the very wrath that so often put the wounds on her pale skin. She was parting her lips to speak, not sure what to say when he picked her up, cradling her so easily in his muscular arms.<br><br>Anni didn't speak as he carried her, back to the living room, back to the place where the attack had come. She found her throat caught with something, help. Why would they help her though? Why had they saved her? She didn't know but for the moment, just for the moment she was going to enjoy the help of people who weren't plotting to use her for gain. There was nothing to gain here, outside the court.<br><br>As Aleric laid her down she offered no fight, she had the strength and endurance of any sidhe she was still weary. To let others tend her wounds would be something new. Perhaps it was time to try something new. When she felt a knife close to her skin she let out a soft sound of distress, of fear, remembering one of the duels when a knife had bitten deeply into her skin. Apparently though it was just to give them a clearer view of her back and so she turned her face hard into the couch, letting the few tears that had gathered leak onto the soft cushion.<br><br>The other one spoke then and she turned her face, tears and blood mixing on her cheeks, smearing and heightening her pale, drawn face. "No, nothing is broken, nighthags like to toy with their prey." She answered softly, surprised at the gesture of his fingers moving her hair out of her eyes, when his fingers touched against her cheek, brushing softly her eyes fluttered shut, lips parting slightly as she drank in the touch. She had craved touch, gentle, reassuring touches for so long, wanting at times just to be held, to feel safe in someone elses arms. But no where was safe for a Princess of the Seelie who was a half blood. His hands moved away then, moving her hair off her back, several strands soaked with her blood. She would need a good shower before she was clean again.<br><br>“Don’t worry..you’re safe now,” came a velvet whisper from the first man's lips, the tears came back, a shine touching in her eyes as she held them back. Safe, she wished she could believe that. But nighthags would just be the first, if her grandfather wanted her dead it would happen. She had always known that.<br><br>Annibyn nodded, a soft, bitter smile on her lips even as her heart warmed and melted slightly at his words. "I thank you for your aid, for the rescue, but my death is coming, its only a matter of time. May I know the names of my saviors to thank the Goddess for you?"

				“I am Aleric Aelroth, my lady,” Aleric said to her, his voice kind. He picked up her hand and brought it to his mouth, kissing the backs of her knuckles gently. “And this is my brother, Daric..” he told her, gesturing to Daric who was standing next to him. Daric looked at the woman and smiled kindly at her as well. Standing up, he had a bit of a possessive air to him. He looked down at her and couldn’t help but run his gaze over her body, taking in everything from her marred skin to her womanly curves. His eyes held many different things. They were kind, but also gave off the feel that he would be ready to kill at a moment’s notice that.<br><br>He already knew then and there that he would not harm the female, nor would he let anyone else harm the female. He blinked for a brief second wondering if she had cast some sort of spell on him. He had not felt this way about a female before. He knew not why the feelings were happening, but nonetheless, they were there and he was not going to make a conscious effort to get rid of them. “My sweet lady,” he said, his voice slightly deeper than Aleric’s. His thumb stroked over her cheek softly. “Why are those creatures after one such as lovely as yourself?” he asked her. He wanted to hear her side of the story first before he let her know that her grandfather was the one that had hired them to kill her along with her mother who hired them to do quite the opposite.<br><br>As he spoke to her, Aleric brought the wet washcloth to her back gently. He started in one small corner, dabbing at one of the scratches trying to avoid as much contact as he could, knowing that it would surely sting and cause her to be quite uncomfortable with the pain. Before she could respond, Daric guided her face to look at him. “Look at me..focus on me,” he told her softly, trying to get her mind off of the pain that she was about to endure as Aleric went to work fixing up her back as best as he could. He smiled at her, his hand moving over her face gently, trying not to let the smell of her blood call his bloodlust to the surface.<br><br>“Do you live by yourself, lovely one?” he asked her softly, glancing over at her back from time to time to see the kind of progress that his brother was making on her skin. Every time he looked though, his anger would be called out and he had to force himself to calm down in the presence of the lady. He couldn’t stop himself from swearing underneath his breath. Thinking back to her words from earlier, he caught her gaze, looking into her eyes so that she knew that he was being absolutely sincere. “I swear that my brother and I will not let anyone or anything else harm you..” he told her, his feelings of protectiveness coming out again. His brother looked up at this, never having heard him say this before. They were twins and because of that bond, he was somewhat in tune with his brothers feelings and he could see that his brother was clearly feelings something for the girl, but he wasn’t sure what it was yet.<br><br>To Aleric, she was precious and sweet, just by the few kind words alone that she had spoken. She would make any man happy, but he knew that man could never be him. He would be too afraid to hurt her with his…curse. He had seen too many people around him get hurt by the beast that he possessed inside of him. He had no control over it and it came out whenever it sensed that something bad was about to happen.

				Aleric Aelroth and Daric, such nice names she thought drowsily. Pain was dulling her senses, but when Aleric took her hand and brushed his lips against her skin she felt her magic respond, the touch reassuring but also stirring; a soft flicker of light moved through her skin. Her eyes went from one of them to the other, glancing up at Daric, the one who had been so gentle and soothing earlier. His eyes held both reassurance but also the heat of appreciation for her body.<br><br>Did he know the customs of the fae then? To show lust when first noticing someone's form, regardless of if that was the case or not the warmth in those bright eyes healed something inside her. She had never really had someone look at her like that before.<br><br>His deep voice filled her ears as his thumb softly touched her cheek, she turned her face into that touch, eyes fluttering shut to savor it, to cherish the warmth and gentleness. She had had far to little of both in her life. Annibyn glanced up at him at the question and the bitter smile showed once more, pain filling those lovely eyes. "Because I am a half blood, a disgrace to the Seelie court. My Unseelie blood, it makes me worthless as a Princess. My grandfather loaths me, every breath I take...as I said, my death is coming, he will win in the end. He is King."<br><br>She hissed though then, feeling the touch of the washcloth and anesthetic yet she didn't tremble, her body was braced, ready for anything. She had years of practice in bearing through pain after all. Daric's hands came then, leading her, his voice calling to her until Anni's eyes opened, looking at him, shock and pain showing in her eyes. He was trying to keep the pain from filling her, he was smiling, caressing her face, and her skin drank in that touch, it anchored her, it soothed her. Touch, soft touch was something she had craved for years, and the three lonely years she had spent in exile had been worse then anything, no touch to anchor her, no touch to comfort her through the lonely nights as she cried herself to sleep.<br><br>At his question she nodded. "Yes." Came the murmured answer, she could still feel the pain but her years of torture and the duels at court and taught her how to break the pain away from her senses for the most part. When Daric spoke words promising her that no one would ever harm her she laughed, laughed even as tears spilled down her face, she let them see, after all they had already seen so much, it made no difference now. "Unless you are immortal once death claims you I am as good as dead, and even with that, even with that...my grandfather..."<br><br>She trailed off, the tears, the pain, everything being too much of a toll. Her face turned then, she laid it down on the couch against the cushion, tears falling and soaking the material, her body shaking ever so slightly. Anni's lips parted, speaking into the couch. "You should go once done, you have done your good deed, I do not wish to be the reason for your death."

				“No,” both men said in unison, in a tone that clearly stated what was going to happen and left no room for argument on her part when she told them that they had to leave here. Daric sighed, knowing that now he had to tell her the truth that he had originally planned to keep a secret from her. He didn’t want her to know that they had originally came in here with the intention of killing her, no matter if that was not his intention at the present time. “We will stay, and protect you, until you are well enough to travel with us…We shall take you back to…our home..,” Daric told her. Until then, the thought of going back home never crossed his mind. But, now..he had not only himself and his brother to worry about, but the safety of this beautiful creature rested on his shoulders as well and he was more than happy to take on the challenge.<br><br>Aleric had finished wiping her back, but frowned, seeing that it was still bleeding, and would probably continue to bleed until there was a little bit of a scab forming over the wounds. He looked at his brother, a silent conversation going on in their heads with each other. He knew what it was that had to be done, but what he couldn’t figure out is if they should ask her first or just go about doing it. They each took up a spot on either side of her body. Bending down, Daric let his tongue snake out, trailing over one of the shorter wounds on her shoulder, lapping up hungrily at the blood. Aleric leaned down on the other side, licking a wound on her hip, letting his tongue linger over her soft skin, letting out a soft purr as he did. God, she tasted good, like honey on his tongue, he thought.

				Well they were stubborn. It didn't matter, she had always been alone, always would be. But deep down, inside, in a little corner of her heart she would never want to admit to, she wanted to believe that strong one word. No, they weren't going to leave her. No she wouldn't be alone anymore. She had longed for that her whole life. Her mother had not been able to take her, her father loathed her.<br><br>Protect her, why would they protect her? But she was so grateful for it and the tears fell more against the couch, she had not cried before others in a long time but she still knew the trick to keep her sorrow silent. Back home, their home, that was a gift she would cherish should it come to pass. Yet part of her felt like she should leave them, let them heal her and then slip away and hide herself, to spare their lives. Because though they could protect her for a little while, sooner or later her grandfather would step into things himself and then, then nothing and no one could stand in his way unless the Goddess herself intervened.<br><br>Annibyn's thoughts though were distracted when she felt their tongues lap at her skin, licking up the blood. To do this, it meant they savored blood the way demi fey and goblins did, but were neither, not of the fae but blood drinks. Vampires. That made more sense then and she relaxed, vampires could seal wounds with their tongues, light moved beneath her skin, pale and shy, like the first teasing of the dawning sun. A soft moan parted her lips, her tears stopped as she sank into the simple pleasure of touch and delight, of the feel of their tongues lapping at her skin, healing and savoring the taste of her coppery blood.<br><br>Her body relaxed beneath them, no longer the tense bracing waiting for more pain, but the looseness as heat sprailed through her, responding to these two handsome men, caring for her and gentling cleaning her of the blood that stained her flesh. When Aleric purred against her skin she shivered, gasping and then her skin began to glow softly, not flickering but truly glowing.

				“Do you like that, beautiful love?” Daric purred in her ear when he had heard her moaning softly at their touch. He looked down at her, running his fingers tenderly through the soft silky strands of her hair. He leaned down again, licking another wound on her back shut. Aleric smiled and started at the base of her spine, licking his way slowly upwards. Experimentally, he let his fangs lengthen and graze her skin on his mouth’s upwards journey on her spine.<br><br>It had been too long since both men had been with a female. Usually they would just use them for blood, and then leave them, never wanting to get too close to them and having it backfire. In truth, the weren’t even sure that they were capable of being loved or loving another. Their father had done a number on them before he cast them out into exile. He had made them believe that they were worth nothing. Similarly to Annibyn, their mother had provided a sense of protection and comfort from the evil ways of their father.<br><br>Slowly, both men worked their mouths gently across her soft skin, kissing and licking at the wounds, watching them seal shut before their very eyes. They made sure to keep their hands on her, touching her skin in some way, since they had picked up that their touch was a comfort to her. They wanted her to trust them, and warm up to them, knowing that they would both be with her for a long time to come. Perhaps, even for the rest of their lives.<br><br>She had awoken a stirring in their souls. It was one that Daric had only heard others talk about. The feeling that you get when you meet The One. In their culture, the way their species were was that when you meet your future mate, the male protective instincts start to kick in. That is, nothing and no one else matters except for your female. She is the center of your being and you would go through heaven and hell to make sure that she is both contented and happy. In their culture, the women are the ones that have control over their men. Because of the high risk of fatality during childbirth, females in their culture were a precious resource, whereas the males were not.<br><br>He looked at his brother who glanced at the exposed expanse of flesh on the beauty that was laying there in front of him and he could tell that Aleric was thinking the same thing that he was. He wanted to mark this beauty as theirs. They wanted to mark her in any and every single way possible. They wanted their scents on her, so that if anyone was foolish enough to so much as look at her the wrong way, they would know who it was that would come after them and made sure that they paid dearly.<br><br>Aleric reached down and caressed her skin softly once more as they finished with her back. “Where are your clothes, dear love?” he asked her softly, knowing that the dress was no good to her now that it was ripped. He wanted her clothed, but in something loose so that it would not bother the still healing cuts on her back.

				Did she like it? Oh Goddess she loved it, the sound of his deep voice filling her ears, she shifted slightly, feeling his hands play with her gleaming hair, they surrounded her senses and she loved it, adored it. Didn't want it to stop. She felt their tongues working over her skin and then Aleric, so close to the sweet curve of her well formed ass, scraped up her back ever so slightly, sending a shivering moan through her, hands clenching on the couch above her head.<br><br>The light in her skin brightened, she felt her body flushing with desire, with heat and with magic, could feel the throb at her core as these handsome men tended to her. Their mouths were magic, all the magic any one could want, a magic that brought parts of her to life she had denied for years. Annibyn had never been grateful for being hurt before, but with these two touching, caressing her skin, this lips working over her flesh she was suddenly glad that the night hags had attacked her.<br><br>She let out a soft sound of protest when their lips lift her skin, but that simply meant that her wounds were sealed. And Anni knew she should be happy about that. But she wasn't, not really. At least they were still touching her, Aleric's hand working down her back as the light beneath her skin softened, her skin going back to normal as the heat cooled down. Then Annibyn blushed, realizing what exactly she had just done, and the fact that she would all too happily do it again.<br><br>Dear love, oh Goddess, her heart contracted then and she blinked back another glimmer of tears. The girl pushed herself up then, letting out a soft hiss of pain, eyes shutting as she tried to ignore the pain. "No clothing, not just yet...I need to shower, my hair's tacky with blood." She lifted a arm to her forehead, softly feeling the cut that was still open before lowering it again, her dress nearly falling away from her body then, yet she let it, after all she still had her lavender and black bra to cover her full breasts.<br><br>She licked her lips, about to do something she had never done before she spoke. "Help me? I do not think I can walk by myself."

				Daric nodded, gently guiding her to stand, letting her dress fall around her feet in a pool of soft, silky, stained material. That simple gesture left her standing before them semi naked, in nothing but her bra and panties. He couldn’t help himself and let his eyes wander up and down her body, appreciatively taking in all that smooth sking, and her womanly curves. Perhaps he could tap into that vein that ran near the junction of her thighs, that way he could alternate between lapping at her blood and…..Dear Virgin, no. He thought to himself as the same series of feelings that he was feeling before came back to him, hitting him full force.<br><br>Aleric lifted her easily into his strong arms, tucking her head gently against the crook of his neck. Bending his head slightly, he kissed over the spot on her forehead that was bleeding, his tongue snaking out to lick over the wound, sealing it shut as well. “You are the first of your kind that we have come in close contact with,” Aleric explained softly to her as he carried her down the hall back to her bathroom, with Daric following at his side. “We are not sure what your specific needs are, princess,” he said softly. “But, if you merely give us a chance to learn, I am sure that we can catch on quite quickly,” he told her.<br><br>Daric opened the bathroom door for them, and Aleric led her inside. Gently, he let her sit on the counter. Daric went over to the shower stall. He turned on the water, making sure to check the temperature so that it was not too hot, nor too cold. Leaving it to warm, he came back over to his brother’s side, watching the beauty that they had in front of them.<br><br>Being that she could not stand right now, they figured that they would have to get into the shower with her. They stepped away from her form and reached down. Daric was the first to pull the ends of the crisp white shirt that he was wearing out of waistband of his black slacks. Slowly, he unbuttoned it, keeping his eyes trained on her as he did so. When the material parted, he slid it off of his shoulder and to the floor.<br><br>His upper body was revealed then, all muscle. His chest bore a Celtic cross on his left pec, and on his right bicep, across the widest part, there was a coiled barbed wire around the entire circumference. Huge slabs of muscle was what he called his pectorals, with a width that not even her hand would be able to fill when fanned out against his skin. On his upper back was a magnificent tattoo of a tiger done superbly with coloring and intricate details, making it seem almost lifelike.<br><br>Aleric glanced at his brother and followed his lead, ridding himself of his own shirt. His body was the exact mirror image of Daric’s except his tattoos were of different designs. On his back, he had a dragon coiled where Daric’s tiger tattoo was. His armband was more solid and bore the mark of a cross in the center. On his chest, there was no tattoo, but rather a scar that ran across the width of his left pectoral.<br><br>They looked at her, their eyes narrowing softly, trying to decide how to go about this. Gently, Daric turned her around, pressing her as lightly as possible against the wall. He leaned down, letting his fangs graze her back again, before letting them undo the clasp on her bra expertly. Aleric took over then, tugging the material away from her body, doing his best to not let his fingers graze over her sensitive flesh on her nipples, not wanting to come off as being rude or a lecher.

				The girl let her hands cling to Daric as he helped her stand, asking for help had been something she had never done before, but now she was grateful she had. She felt a touch lightheaded and without his arms to brace her she would have sank back down onto her couch. Annibyn felt the whisper of silk as her dress slipped down her body, she didn't blush though, sidhe did not feel shy about nudity. But when she lifted her eyes to his and saw the way he looked at her, saw the hunger in his eyes then she blushed, pink touching her cheeks as his eyes lingered on the soft lace edging of her bra, sweeping down to her black panties with lavender trim. And she could feel it too, the lust inside him, it called to something in her.<br><br>Then Aleric lifted her upward and she looked up at him, her eyes warm and soft, unsure but, something else, perhaps eagerness showed in them. She relaxed into his arms, relishing the feeling of being held so tight and close, in this moment she felt safe, with the warmth of his body and the strength of his arms surrounding her. When his lips kissed her forehead, sealing the last of her cuts she nuzzled his neck, softly kissing it, parting her lips to lap and taste at his skin, savoring the flavor of it.<br><br>The first sidhe, so they did not know then, how the heat of their bodies, the touch of their tongues called to her body, made her want to let her body glow like the rising pale sun. Part of her thought that these two handsome men would like the answer she gave them about her needs. Anni would be more then happy to give them a chance to learn her needs, to learn the places of her body that brought the light to her skin, the shine to her eyes. She shook her head mentally at herself, she really needed to stop thinking about them that way.<br><br>As she was set down on the counter she shivered the cold of the marble counter contrasted to the warmth of her flesh. Those two intense pairs of eyes were fixed on her, a sensation she had never known before. Yet as Daric started to undress she found her mouth went dry and she forgot about them watching her and instead watched them. Her eyes showed her own hunger for them, she did not hide the raw want and need that seeing his body sent through her. Annibyn wanted to kiss up his torso to trace the shapes of his tattoos with her tongue, a tiger only seemed fitting, he was lethal and graceful.<br><br>A movement at the corner of her eyes caught her attention and she turned to watch the same process of the shirt stripping away to reveal a body that she craved to touch. But her lips parted in a soft cry at the scar on Aleric's chest, her arm lifting, ignoring the pain to reach toward him, wanting to touch, to caress. But she did not get her wish, her arm dropped as Daric turned her, a soft whimper parting her lips as his mouth teased down her back, teeth summoning that flickering light before she let out a sigh of relief as the constraint of her bra was removed. Her breasts were full and pert even without the flimsy garment. She felt hands move down her chest, pulling away the bra and she let out a soft gasp, her spine arching to make certain that Aleric's fingers touched her nipples, the twin peaks hardening at the touch.<br><br>She turned herself then, facing both of them, her hands reaching out, the right going to trace down Aleric's scar, feather light touch, her left going to slip through Daric's hair. Her eyes were shy, hoping that they would not reject her touches. Annibyn had never wanted to touch men like this before, she had fled the court to avoid sleeping with one, thinking that she was cold and not sexual at all. "Touch, touching makes all fae feel better. We are creatures of nature and magic."<br><br>Her hands dropped away then, she looked at them, sitting on her marble counter with two handsome men before her. "I have fertility goddesses in my blood line, I can feel your lust, it fuels my power, it will speed my healing."

				They did not push her away, or reject her touch on their bodies. In fact, they did quite the opposite. Aleric took a sharp intake of breath at the sensation of her fingers tracing across his scar. He closed his eyes and let his body go still, taking in the smooth silkiness of her fingers. His body arched towards hers, never wanting her to leave his skin with her touches. Daric’s face turned towards her hand, nuzzling her palm as her fingers ran through her hair. He reached back gently, undoing the tie on his hair, letting the strands fan out down to his shoulders, giving her something else to play with.<br><br>“I am afraid that I cannot touch you in the ways that you seek to be touched, dear heart..” Daric told her softly, pressing the gentlest of kisses to those perfect lips of hers. “If I do..I will be forced to see to it that no one but my brother and myself are the ones that shall ever touch you again…” he whispered, massaging down the indent to her spine.<br><br>“What my brother is trying to say that..lust is not the right word that encompasses all that we are feeling…” Aleric told her, stroking her cheek softly. “You may have whatever it is you wish from us..Anything..and everything..” he told her. “If you should so want it,” he whispered.

				They did not move away. They moved closer, they encouraged her touches, offered more of themselves to her. Her hands raised again, unable to help herself as her hand stroked over Aleric's chest, light flickering in her skin at his response. Daric turning her his face into her palm, nuzzling her and giving her all of his silky hair to play with. She blinked back tears, looking up at them, wondering if they knew what a gift they were giving her.<br><br>She had been unclean, unworthy, repulsive to so many her whole life. And yet here were two men so handsome it made her body ache with want and they wanted her. Nothing could take away the joy that gave her heart. The tenderness in her eyes she could not deny, could not hide. When Daric kissed her she softly responded, clinging to his lips as he spoke, his words warming her in a way lust had no hold on. This was the warmth of affection, of something she dare not even name.<br><br>But she would not hide from them what she was, she could not bare to take more, to sink more into these feelings and then have them reject her in the end. She pulled away from his lips, away from his touch, her eyes downcast as she tried to find the words.<br><br>"No one has ever wanted to touch me this way, I am unclean, a half blood, not worthy of anything other then pain. I am sorry I forgot that. I would not, do not wish to dishonor you with my touch or my..." she trailed off, catching herself from saying too much.

				“Unclean?” Daric asked softly, blinking at her, making sure that he had heard her clearly. “Unworthy?” Aleric responded, wanting to clarify. Aleric stepped forward getting close to her, his front pressing against her back. His massive arms encircled her body, drawing her closer to him. His head dropped down and nuzzled up the side of her neck, his hands around her waist, resting gently on her stomach, his finger circling her bellybutton gently.<br><br>“Who has filled your mind with such lies, my beautiful girl?” Daric asked her, his anger calmly bubbling beneath the surface. He came over to stand in front of her, stroking her cheek softly. He dropped his head to the other side of her neck, nuzzling over her vein gently, reverently. Once he found out who it was that told her such lies, he would make sure that they never spoke to anyone ever again. This creature in front of him was far from unworthy, or dirty. In fact, she was perfection manifested. “You are the most perfect thing that we have ever come across..And you would do nothing but honor us by being ours,” Aleric whispered, his fangs coming out to nip gently at her earlobe.<br><br>“It is apparent that you have been hurt in the past, and for what reason I do not know, but…Please know that my brother and I do not share those views, and will never share those views. What we see in front of us, is a woman, beautiful in more ways than one. One that has been foolishly denied the love, attention, and affection that she has been deserving of her entire life..” Daric told her.<br><br>“And while..we cannot make up for what was done to you in the past,” Aleric told her. “We can try as hard as we can to make sure that the past stays right where it is…That is..in the past,” he told her. “We can also make sure that from this moment on, you know the truth and are treated the way you deserve..” he told her. “That includes making sure that you are never without the love and affection that you require again. You will never alone, not for a single second in the future once we are around,” he told her.

				As they repeated her words she flinched, a frown marring her brow as she shrank in on herself, uneasy now. Then she felt Aleric behind her, his arms wrapping around her smaller form, supporting her and drawing her back against him, not too close, still careful of her wounds. The nuzzle brought a soft smile to her lips, she relaxed a touch, her breathing quickening as his hands caressed her flat stomach. Yes, just touching, no words were needed, words only brought painful truth. But apparently Daric didn't feel the same for he spoke then.<br><br>He seemed angry, but not at her, thankfully. His hand upon her cheek reassured her, though she still wished for silence, even with him calling her beautiful. Then his head nuzzled the other side of her neck and she was surrounded by them, in a manner she had only dreamed of in her most secret fantasies. Yet she was discovering that words did not have to mean pain.<br><br>“You are the most perfect thing that we have ever come across..And you would do nothing but honor us by being ours,”<br><br>Her knees went weak then, as Aleric nipped at her ear she sagged against them, her heart touched and two tears of awe slipping down her face. She wanted nothing more then to be theirs, but that was moving too fast. Annibyn knew better then to give a promise when pain still filled her.<br><br>Yet their words, they kept coming, they had tended to the wounds from the nigthhags, now they were soothing and healing the wounds from growing up unwanted and reviled in the Seelie Court. It was overwhelming and she felt lost and had no idea how to respond, how to act, she was in new territory. A tremble wracked her body and she finally spoke, in a broken whisper "I...I do not know what to say...but I can give no fair promise tonight, my head is not clear you do not deserve an unsure answer."<br><br>"Please, just help me shower and let me sleep, you have given me so much to think about. Tonight I need only touch."

				Aleric nodded, and leaned down, kissing her lips softly. “Of course…I know all this is new to you and I do not want to make you uncomfortable, nor force you into something that you have not thought through fully,” he told her, nipping at her soft lips once more. “I know that this might be hard for you to believe at first,” he told her softly, “but we are not out to get you..” he whispered to her.<br><br>His hands wandered up and down her side, stroking and caressing her soft skin as he went along. The kiss lasted a good few seconds before he released her mouth. Daric turned her towards him, drawing her up gently against his body. His hand went to the backs of her soft thighs, and lifted her up easily against his larger frame. Holding her against him, he maneuvered her legs to wrap around his waist, before walking with her towards the shower stall.<br><br>Aleric joined them in the shower, and watched while Daric maneuvered her body gently underneath the steady stream of warm water. He studied her expression carefully, not sure how tender and sensitive her skin was at that point and didn’t really want to her hurt unintentionally anymore than she already had been hurt.<br><br>Daric reached over and took the bottle of shampoo, emptying some in his hands. He maneuvered her body to recline against him, and went to work on washing her hair. His hands worked, his fingers massaging her scalp in slow, relaxing circles. When he was done, he eased her head back, and slowly started to rinse her hair, making sure to get out all the suds. While he was doing that, Aleric had found a bar of soap, lathering his hands with it. He looked at her and smiled, running his hands up and down the front of her body.<br><br>Daric put her down on the floor gently, holding her to him and followed his brother’s lead and took the soap, lathering up his own hands and then got down on his knees in front of her. Gently, he started working his way up her legs to her ankles, and then further up, until he got to her upper thigh, his fingers gently grazing against the lips of her sex. “Have you ever been touched by a man before, my love?” he asked her softly, his fingers gently starting to ease between her soft folds, going purposely slow in case she protested.

				Aleric's words put her more at ease, he seemed to understand, she didn't want to give them less then complete honesty, anything other then truth between them. She melted into the kiss, her lips parting, surrendering to the heat and when he nipped at her full lower lip she shivered, gasping into his lips. His hands working up and down her body, exploring, learning her figure as she clung to him, light flickering under her skin as heat spread through her.<br><br>She felt dizzy when Daric pulled her to him, her legs following his hands urges, she let him support her, giving him her trust with her body. Annibyn lifted her arms, her back healed enough that it did not pain her to do so to wrap around his neck, her body plush against his, soft to his hard. The brush of his bare torso with the press of her breasts against his skin strengthened the light beneath her skin, her pulse racing. It all felt so good, so damn good. She could never remember feeling like this before.<br><br>The girl was so distracted that she didn't realize they had moved until she felt the warm spray of the shower on her back, she tensed for a minute, expecting it to hurt. Only it didn't, it felt wonderful and she let her eyes flutter shut to enjoy it. Anni let her legs go down to stand, leaning against Daric, her face pressed against his chest as he worked the shampoo through her hair, this was a pampering she would have never thought to have. If she was a cat she would be purring in the delight and bliss that this tender caring put into her. Annibyn let him recline her backward, rinsing out the cleaning.<br><br>She felt the touch of hands on her body, eyes opening as the water ran over the valleys and mountains of her curvy body, she was caught by Aleric's pale, pale green eyes. Two of the most handsome men she had ever seen where washing her, supporting her. Anni's body throbbed, the tenderness touched her heart, the heat of their hands spreading desire through her. A tremble wracked her body as Daric's hands worked up her legs, and then feeling the brush of his fingers against her mons through her thin lace panties she let out a low, sweet whimper. Her core was wet and ready, in a way she had never known of before.<br><br>He had asked her a question and she shook her head, breathing the answer "N...no. Never." As his fingers moved deeper, she whimpered again, nearly moaning as she reached out, her arms going to rest on his shoulders to brace herself. Her legs had turned to jelly.

				Her answer made Daric growl in approval, the sound low and deep coming from the back of his throat. When he heard her moan, his body grew harder. “That sound..make it for me again, my sweet love” he told her in a thick voice as his fingertips slid underneath the fabric of her panties to touch her sex this time. “You like my touches, don’t you?” he murmured in her ear, turning her around gently so that her back was now to his front.<br><br>He was hard and he knew that she would be able to feel it since his member was pressing up against her back as he held her. Her hands went to her panties, hooking the waistband in his fingers and sliding it down her legs and finally off of her body. He spread her legs again, his hands going up her thighs, cupping her sex gently.<br><br>His two middle fingers pressed between her slit, rubbing up against her clit in light circles. He knew that the time would come when they would have to hurt her before she could fully be theirs and honestly, he was dreading it. He took his time with her, lingering over each and every one of his movements, wanting her to savor the feel of each, and get used to his hands on her, because if they played their cards right, they would be the ones touching her for a long time to come.<br><br>Aleric was looking reverently at her breasts, his fingers flicking and rubbing lightly over her rosy nipples, watching them harden more and more with each touch of his hands. “They’re so pretty,” he told her, licking his lips absently as if he was already tasting her flesh in his mouth. He ran his fingers up the underside of one of her pert orbs, looking at her as he did so. He let his finger trail up and around a nipple watching her eyes as he did so. Gently, he leaned down, letting his tongue snake out to flick at the nipple once…twice…a good few times before pulling away.<br><br>Instead of leaving her body completely, he merely turned his head to her other nipple, stroking it with his tongue. He glanced back up at her, before he sucked the same nipple into his mouth, his fangs gently grazing over it.<br><br>“She tastes so sweet, my brother,” Aleric told Daric when his mouth let go of the second nipple, after lavishing it with the attentions of his mouth.<br><br>“That she does,” Daric murmured, capturing her lips once more in a heated kiss, his tongue surging into her mouth, claiming what belonged to them now, whether she wanted to admit to it or not. Gently, he withdrew his fingers and lifted her in his arms again, stepping out of the shower. His brother grabbed a towel and together they gently wiped her down and wrapped her up in another drier towel. Aleric scooped her up into his arms and turned to go out of the bathroom.<br><br>Daric closed his eyes, sniffing the air slowly. Their bonding scents were absolutely alive and roaring. Both separate and distinct, but wonderful nonetheless. Daric’s was the sweet scent of dark spices, almost like cinnamon mixed with his aftershave. Aleric’s was similar to the fresh scent of evergreen mixed with spring rain. Aleric looked at his brother before he leaned down, nuzzling the nape of Annibyn’s neck, looking for their scents on her skin, and he was happy to find that it was there. Both men knew that there was no turning back now.

				That primal, earthy sound, that growl sent a shiver through her body, she had never heard anything like it before and it sent heat spiraling everywhere through her body and the light under her skin finally came full force then, shining like a pale sun as she stood between them. She couldn't deny his command, not as his fingers teased her body, his hard behind her as she trembled, she moaned again, husky and sweet with need as she felt him behind her, hard in more ways then one. A whimper fled her lips when his hands moved away, to ease down her panties, she didn't want him to stop touching her.<br><br>And then his hands were back, touching her in a way she had never even dreamed about, touching her, so soft and gentle, she nearly wanted to cry from it. When two fingers rubbed against the pearl that was the center of her body she did cry out, in surprise, in bliss, trembling for him as the desire of her body slicked his questing fingers. Through this all her gaze, since he had turned her, was riveted on Aleric, unable to look away even as his eyes seemed to devour her skin. His fingers toyed with her nipples even as his brothers played with her clit, they were going to drive her insane with more pleasure then she had ever believed possible.<br><br>Her body was theirs Anni never wanted them to stop, never wanted anything more then to freeze this moment where she felt adored, worshiped and pleasure. When Aleric touched her breasts she hissed in pleasure, her spine arching, pressing herself down on Daric's fingers and into Aleric's hands. Her eyes shone with her lust and magic, brilliant as he watched her and circled one painfully hard nipple. Oh Goddess, he was going to kill her with that teasing, she whimpered, withering against Daric as Aleric's tongue lapped at her nipple.<br><br>And then he switched, this time his mouth closing over her breast and sucking the aching peak into his mouth. Her eyes shone even brighter as his fangs graced the sensitive nub and she moaned deeply for him, eyes fluttering shut as her body trembled.<br><br>Annibyn whimpered when he pulled away completely, already longing for his mouth to work over her breasts again. Yet those thoughts were driven out when Daric tilted her head back and claimed her lips in a kiss that wiped out all thought and left only a searing passion. And then he released her, his fingers leaving her quaking center and she let out a sound of surprise and confusion, stumbling before he was there, picking her up and carrying her out of the shower.<br><br>Annibyn didn't speak as they toweled her off, her mind still drunk on pleasure and sensation, she simply curled into Aleric's arms and let him carry her out of the bathroom. She let her body calm down, her skin's glow dying out and eyes fluttering shut as she sighed, inhaling as her pulse slowly returned to normal. Anni felt her weariness now, but her back felt so much better, in fact the wounds were more then half healed now. "My room, its the end of the hall. I have a night gown under my pillows"she murmured softly to them, she was warm and nearly limp completely in Aleric's hold as sleep crept closer.

				Being that she was almost completely asleep in Aleric’s arms before they even got her to bed, they didn’t try and keep her up any later. Aleric laid her on the bed gently and Daric retrieved her nightgown, slipping it over her body. Placing her in the center of the covers, the boys stripped down to their boxers, both black and slid into the bed next to her. Gently, the gathered her against their bodies, and rested either of their heads on each of her shoulders. Slowly, they drifted off into sleep, with their soon to be mate happily in their arms.<br>_____________________________________________________<br><br>The next morning, almost at the crack of dawn, they awoke. They were not the type of vampires that one read about in books. They could go out during the day, and things like garlic and crosses had no effect on them whatsoever. They looked over at her and noticed that she was still deeply asleep, and with a gentle kiss to her forehead, they got out of bed, and left her sleeping form. They wanted to do something special for her this morning, so that she would know that what happened last night was not something that was just all about sex and anything related.<br><br>Going out into the hallway, they searched her house until they found the kitchen. Poking around further in there, they found that she kept very well-stocked cupboards and the fridge was far from bare as well. They rifled through, getting out everything that they needed to make her a good, indulgent breakfast.<br><br>Aleric went into the fridge and took out some eggs, milk, butter, cheese an grabbed the sausage from the freezer. He placed everything but the sausage on the counter. He grabbed a butcher's knife an a plate from the cupboard and sliced open the packaging, emptying half of the frozen sausages in the plate. He popped those with a cover into the microwave on low so that the ice would thaw from them.<br><br>In the pantry, Daric got out the flour, sugar, vanilla extract, black pepper, salt, and some red pepper flakes. He placed those all in one corner and picked up about six ripe oranges from the fruit bowl. He looked into one of the cupboards under the toaster and found his juicer. Slicing the oranges in half, he squeezed fresh juice that he put into a pitcher and placed in the fridge so that it would chill.<br><br>Aleric got out three skillets and placed them on the stove, turning on the burners under each one. He measured out the ingredients for the pancakes and a few short minutes later, the creamy vanilla scented batter was ready to go. He got the sausages out of the microwave and looked at them before putting them into one of the skillets with some oil.<br><br>The next thing that was to be made was the scrambled eggs, which Daric mixed up to which he added some red pepper flakes an some grated pepper jack cheese for some extra kick. He poured a few spoonfuls of batter into the skillet, making sure that they didn't run together.<br><br>Halfway through making the pancakes, he realized that he could spice those up as well, and went into his pantry, grabbing a bag of semi sweet chocolate chips. Cutting the bag open, he emptied about a quarter of the stuff into the pancake mix, and he and Aleric took turns spooning the rest of the batter into the skillet so that it would cook.<br><br>Daric then took the scrambled eggs, and added the salt and black pepper to them, as well as some shredded onion before letting it all loose into the skillet. He lowered the heat on the stove before turning to the other skillet and flipping the sausages, which were now a good golden brown color on one side, while his brother rifled through the microwave and found some bread to make toast with.<br><br>Aleric took the eggs off the stove and grabbed two plates and divided the eggs into each plate. Placing the hot pan into the stove, he picked up the sizzling sausage and did the same with that. He finally got his hands on the pancakes and put two of each kind unto both plates. While he did that, Daric got out some syrup from the closet and poured it into a small little ceramic syrup pitcher and put it in the microwave for a few seconds so that the syrup got all warm and gooey. He brought over the two plates, putting them on the trays he had found in the cupboard as well. He went to the drawers and got out a two knives and forks and placed those down on a napkin next to each plate. He then proceeded to pluck to crystal tumblers from the cupboard and the pitcher of fresh juice from the fridge. He poured out three glasses of juice, setting them down next to the plates and the rest of the juice in the center of the tray.<br><br>With Daric carrying one tray and his brother carrying another, they turned around to make sure that they had turned off the stove completely, before they bounded back down the hallway to Annibyn’s room. Going in, Daric placed his tray on the night-table and leaned in, kissing her softly. “Good morning, beautiful,” he whispered, nuzzling her cheek

				She stirred, yawning, moving under the warm nest of blankets, drowsy and not really wanting to wake up from the most wonderful dream. There were two handsome men and they were simply holding her and talking to her. She didn't want to open her eyes to her empty, lonely house and try to pass another day in some sort of productive manner. Annibyn rather curled her body tighter and snuggled in under the blankets, another yawn parting her lips. She looked rather sweet, laying there, her skin flushed with sleep and her face was completely relaxed, no worries, no uncertainty, just simply herself.<br><br>Then she felt lips touch hers, kissing her sweetly in a manner she swore must have been a dream, a deep voice murmuring gently to her. Beautiful. Her eyes fluttered open, the tricolor purple irises confused and sleepy still. She blinked once, then twice, her hair mused around her face as she looked up at Daric. "You...you weren't a dream." she murmured softly.<br><br>Her arms pushed her up, the soft material of her white silk nightgown clung to her body as she sat in her queen size bed, hair loose and messy around her shoulders and just looked at Daric and Aleric. And then she smelled something, well several somethings, her stomach rumbling hungrily, healing took a lot of energy so of course she was hungry. Her eyes moved, taking in the trays, her hand came up to feel at her forehead, and other then a very faint line her wound there was nearly gone, her back felt a touch sore but there was no pain. she had never healed this fast.<br><br>Anni had never woken up to two handsome men in matching black boxers who had brought her food in bed either. She licked her lips, glancing from one to the other, it was clear she didn't know what to do before she simply smiled, bright and easy, erasing the shadows that so often haunted her eyes for a few minutes. "Oh...thank you! This is such a lovely surprise."

				Daric smiled and settled down next to her on one side, and Aleric took up the other side of her on the bed. “Now, lovely,” he started. “There are some rules when it comes to eating with us,” he told her, smoothing back her hair. “First of all, we will be the one feeding you..” he told her, smiling. “Secondly, you cannot use your hands..” he told her with a sneaky grin.<br><br>With that, Aleric broke off a piece of toast, holding it to her lips. “We did not know what you liked, so we made a little bit of everything,” he told her.<br><br>He knew that if she took the food from his hands, he would be honoring a very long term tradition in his culture. It was seen as a sign of affection among other things if a woman was fed by a male, and it was something that a male took great pride in. When a woman got the nourishment that she needed from his hand, that only served to heighten his purpose and make him secure in their relationship. You see, the feeding, something like this, was viewed as very intimate, and was an activity only taken part by mated couples.<br><br>Of course, Daric reasoned in his head. This was a custom familiar to their culture. They would not and could not get upset with her if she should deny them what they were feeding her. She did not know how things worked.

				She smiled softly, shyly as they settled around her, enjoying the warmth of their bodies close to her. She listened curiously to Daric as he spoke, sighing softly as he played with her hair. At his grin she giggled, wondering if this was some sort of game, but for the moment she didn't care she was going to enjoy having these two handsome men with her as long as she could and let them pamper her as much as they wished to.<br><br>Annibyn's eyes moved to Aleric as his fingers offered her a piece of toast, she looked at him curiously before parting her lips to take it into her mouth, playfully letting her teeth grace his finger before she moved back to chew the bread thoughtfully. "Mmm, just the right amount of butter. Oh dear, you two made a lot of food...and that's a lot of dishes." She sighed, wondering if maybe not hiring a maid had been a bad idea. But then she had never cooked much so there had never been a need. Cooking for one was different then cooking for three.<br><br>She leaned around Daric to peek at the tray, curious to what else may be there, her breasts brushing against his arm through the silk when she let out a soft happy sound. "Pancakes and fresh orange juice!" She laughed, looking at them both and shaking her head. "You two are going to spoil me horribly if I don't watch it."

				“Oh, how you honor us, my love,” Aleric whispered as she took the food from his hands. “You say that like if spoiling you would be such a terribly bad thing,” Daric told her, his eyes watching her. Gently, he reached out and toyed with the ties on the strap of her nightgown. He was not going to undo them, but he wanted to know that in some small way, she was at his mercy, just like his heart and his mind was at her mercy right now.<br><br>“We are going to spoil you in every possible way,” Aleric told her, watching her face and letting his eyes travel down to the cleavage peeking out of her nightgown. He let his hand trail from her cheek, down her neck and across her collarbone. Gently, he eased his hand down further, letting them lightly brush across the tops of her breasts in a gentle manner.<br><br>Daric looked at her and growled his approval, watching her mouth as she chewed the food. Gently, he leaned up and gathered a piece of a pancake which he had smothered in syrup and cut up into bite sized squares. “Have you thought about last night?” he asked her gently, not pressing her, just asking her casually.

				Annibyn glanced at Aleric, frowning slightly confused at the word honor. All she had done was eat some toast. But she was happy to make him happy, however she managed to do it. When Daric spoke she laughed again, shaking her head. "Of course it is, I would hate to be a brat..." her words trailed off as her eyes caught on the sight of him toying with the ties of her night gown. Her eyes darkened slightly, flashing back to last night and she glanced down then, the memories filling her and warming her.<br><br>Aleric spoke and she glanced at him, her eyes curious and lips quirking in a rueful smile. It would be easy to spoil someone who had never been spoiled in anything. But she watched his eyes, the heat in them as they moved over her form. Her eyes fluttered shut as his hand softly caressed her cheek before moving down, the soft tease over her breasts catching her breath. The brothers apparently were great teases. She just wished she knew how to repay in kind.<br><br>When Daric growled her skin flushed and that soft light flickered beneath it, her lips moving as she swallowed the last of the toast. When his fingers offered her pancake she took it into her lips, her eyes fixed on him as she slowly ate, letting out a soft sound of blissful surprise when she tasted chocolate within the fluffy pancake. "Oh god, chocolate and you two first thing in the morning, now that is spoiling."<br><br>At his words she nodded, raising her knees beneath the blankets to press them against her chest, wrapping her arms around them as her thoughts went back to the night before. To their words, the offer they had made her. The promises and seductions. Anni finished off the pancake, licking her lips as she tried to find the right words to say. "What would it mean, being yours?" She finally asked softly.

				Daric smiled at this, his eyes darkening at her question. “It would mean, dear one,” he said, “that you would be loved, cherished, taken care of, and kept safe,” he said. Slowly, he took another piece of the pancake and held it to her lips. “Open for me,” he said, his voice a soft, and gentle command. He knew how to work his way with her. He knew that he could not force anything out of her, but rather, he would get her to surrender herself to them of her own accord by showing her what things could be like.<br><br>“It would also mean,” Aleric spoke up, “that you would have to surrender to us mind body and soul. That you will willingly, upon your readiness, submit to us, entrusting that we will not take the gift of your submission lightly, or misuse it. It means that because you are ours, we will not tolerate any kind of disobedience, especially if said disobedience results in you getting harmed. That is not something we will tolerate and will deal with such infractions with a firm hand,” he told her, watching her face before carrying on. “But, even in those instances, you will be taken care of to the utmost of our ability…” he told her, gently touching her face, letting his fingers caressing her warm cheek softly.<br><br>“You should know that whatever happens, no matter what mistakes that you make, you never have to worry about our feelings changing for you..If you so choose, you are ours. If you choose to accept our proposal,” he murmured softly. “You will be loved as ours, not only as our precious one, but also our wife, and the mother of our children when that time comes..” Daric told her, kissing her lips lovingly.

				Loved, cherished, taken care of and kept safe. Everything she had ever wished for, and longed for, even for a minute, even just from one person. And now she had two, incredible men readily offering that to her. It was a lot to take in; yet she thought it over, carefully, when Daric held another bite of pancake to her lips and commanded her in that soft voice she parted her lips without even really thinking, taking the food into her mouth. She chewed as she thought, savoring the taste of it.<br><br>Aleric spoke then and she turned her head, resting it against her knees to look up at him. What they were saying it was, incredible, overwhelming and made Annibyn feel lost, yet safe. They would not harm her, they had saved her, healed her, given her pleasure and now food. Her face was her court mask, empty, sweet but completely devoid of her actual thoughts. Because right now she didn't really know what her actually feelings were. Her eyes fluttered shut when his fingers caressed her cheek, enjoying the touch. All fae enjoyed touch, and if they had their way would often spend the whole day touching and being touched, it grounded them.<br><br>A sigh parted her lips as she uncoiled her legs, leaning back up against the headboard, wondering what sort of fairytale she had wandered into. If she choose to be theirs. Would they leave her if she didn't? If she clung to the meaning of her name, to the truths that her life so far had taught her. When Daric mentioned marriage and children she blinked in surprise, her lips parting to speak before his lips touched hers in a kiss that spoke of love.<br><br>She pulled back from the kiss, glancing at both of them. "Annibyn, my name, it means independent; it was the one gift my mother could give me, for in my life I have had to be." She licked her lower lip, wondering how to continue "Sidhe are the rulers of the fae, I am a Princess, yet I have never had any power. If I do become yours you will have to move in the world of my birth, there are politics that you will not understand, I was raised to them and do not understand them all."<br><br>"I wish I could say yes, in my heart I want to. But I fear it may mean signing both of yours death warrants. There are things of dark and wild power within the Courts, things that no mind can even bare to see for the magic in them will drive one mad. I will not unleash that upon you. Please, know that for me the answer would have been yes with all my heart, yet for you and for the care and affection I already feel for you I will not, can not."<br><br>And with that she slipped from the bed, tears glimmering in her eyes before she rushed toward the bathroom attached to her bedroom, shutting and locking the door behind her before she sank down onto the floor, folding herself up and cried. Wept for having to turn away the first chance she had been given her whole life to be happy and loved. But she could not risk their deaths. Hers was coming, but Goddess help her she would not let it touch them.

				The boys could follow her if they wanted too. They had no problem dematerializing into different rooms, regardless of whether or not the door was locked. However, they would respect her privacy. Both boys looked down, their heads hanging and their chests tightening with the rejection that had just occurred. That’s what they get they guessed, for opening up to someone and letting that person in. Rejection. Yes, it hurt like a bitch.<br><br>“Do you honestly believe that we are not worthy of protecting you? You’ve been on your own, is the thought of” Daric asked in her head, his voice having a hard edge to it as he tried to keep his emotions in check right now and remain impartial to her, when all he wanted to do was shake her until she understood that they could care less about themselves getting hurt, as long as they could protect her on their own and keep her safe with them, then all would be well again.<br><br>Aleric looked up, his eyes blank. Well, at least she rejected him for reasons other than the unearthly being that he possessed inside of him. “You say that we will not understand the politics of your so called royal court,” he chimed in, his voice inside her head as well. “But did you ever stop to ask us if that was the case? No, you did not, Princess..” he said, his tone curt as he spoke to her. “We are rulers of our own kingdom,” he told her. “There are many waiting for us to come back to our home and ascend to the throne,” he told her in his head. “So, believe me when we say that we know all about royal duty and politics, Princess,” he said, emphasizing the last word thoroughly as he spoke.

				They were more then worthy, more then she deserved and that was part of the problem as Annibyn's heart broke inside her chest, she couldn't bare to think of what she had just done. And now their voices were inside her, haunting and cutting. She had hurt them and now it tore her apart, the fragile hold she had was slipping and she just wanted it to stop, to stop hurting. Her hands pressed into her chest as she shook with her tears, trembling as she fought the need to open the door, to go straight to them and hug them, kiss them. Let them know all she wanted was them.<br><br>One hand raised, pressing into her kiss swollen lips, eyes fluttering shut as she remembered the soul searing heat of their kisses. They were Princes, to be Kings, she was a Princess who would never ascend to the throne. She would be killed before anyone allowed that to happen.<br><br>They hated her now, gone was the understanding and loving tones of before. She had thought she knew how to protect herself against that hurt; but it was all to clear that now she didn't. Anni lifted her eyes, going to the window that looked out at the beach above her bath. The girl didn't stop to think she just sprang up and opened the windows, her sidhe blood making it all to ease for her to send herself out into the sunlight, her hair streaming behind her and the silk of her white nigthgown clinging to her body. She felt the sand beneath her feet and so she ran, and ran, toward the crashing waves, her heart and mind crying out for the Goddess to show her the way, to send her a sign, an omen. She was so lost, and more then anything she wished she could return to the brothers and say yes, yes yes over and and over again against those perfect lips.<br><br>The wind whipped around her, molding her silk garment to her body, her hair flying around her, dancing on the waves of the air while she nearly shone in the sun, lost in the power of the Goddess and nature. The girl slowly sank to her knees, tears still falling from her eyes her head tilted back to let the sun shine fully upon her face. Yes, this felt right, this was what she was, the sunshine and the air.<br><br>But suddenly something was horribly wrong, she felt a presence, it was growing, coming toward her. She scrambled to her feet, glancing around her, the heat of the sun leaving her for the cold of the fear. And then she saw him, the figure, coming toward her, steady but sure. While her hair and eyes may be that of sunshine and spring flowers, his was of the winter, snow white hair and eyes of a brittle blue. Anni stumbled backward and then turned, running over the sand, knowing he was following her.<br><br>She had been so stupid to leave the house, to leave her wards and the two who might protect her. She cursed herself for the foolishness even as she found herself realizing she had been right. Her death was coming, it was behind her now.<br><br>Annibyn reached inside herself, casting up what slim warding she could do on the fly, sending her thoughts flying toward the males inside her house, she was not a telepath, but they were. I am sorry, I am so sorry...my heart was yours and will be even after my breath stops tears could be heard in those thoughts even as she let out a scream as ice froze her feet. She fell to her knees, looking up at Taranis as the unearthly handsome man came to stand before her. His handsomeness was a cold sort, he was after all one of her grandfather's pet assassins.<br><br>Her body was wracked with shivers, the cold was creeping into her slowly, from the inside out he was freezing her. "Hel..lo...Death..." she managed to say. He inclined his head, reaching forward to touch right at the center of her forehead. "Goodbye Princess."<br><br>And with that her body was encased in ice.

				Both men looked up when they heard her scream. They dematerialized outside, just in time to see this new man encase their lovely beauty in a cage of ice. Aleric snarled, a low vicious sound coming out of his mouth from somewhere deep inside him. His eyes darkened, taking on a somewhat dark red tone as he advanced on the Sidhe, his throwing stars appearing in his hand. Taking one in his throwing hand, he drew it back and sent it flying towards the man. If it was one thing that he and his brother excelled at, it was making those suffer who deserved it.<br><br>Daric kept his eyes on Annibyn, as he moved towards her. He bent down, bringing his hand firmly on the sand, and when he did, tremors rocked the unsteady earth, in a wave heading straight for her. When it did, the impact was loosened enough to not harm her inside, but rather, crack all of the surrounding ice that encased her body, causing it all to shatter into little crystal, glass-like pieces. Dematerializing, he caught her, just as her body was about to fall to the ground.<br><br>A few feet away, his brother was becoming angrier by the second. His attacker was throwing blades of ice at him from every which direction, and one had managed to clip his shoulder with it’s sharp point. There was not much that he could do to prevent himself from getting angry over what was happening and he knew that once he got angry, there would be no stopping his beast from coming out. He turned around, just in time to see his attacker sending another blade of ice straight towards his brother and his lover.<br><br>With a snarl, his body burst into flames, a great magnificent bird of fire left where Aleric’s human body had once been. With a harsh cry, the beast deflected the ice, melting it to droplets of water before it could get anywhere near his beloved. Turning his body around, the beast eyed his attacker with blood reddened eyes, conveying the fury that had been surging through his body.<br><br>Daric held her in his arms, his hands flattening out against her chest, and her stomach. He had a plan in mind and only hoped that it would work. He could get his hand to manifest some heat into her body from the outside in, which would also help to hopefully jumpstart her own magic into melting whatever was left frozen on the inside of her body. “Come on, love,” he whispered, through gritted teeth, his voice echoing in her head as well. “Fight this..” he told her.<br>He held her in his arms, his touch frantic upon her arms, face, stomach, shoulders trying to kick-start her back into life.<br><br>He turned as he heard a startled cry, only to see the Sidhe that had attacked her, fall to the ground, with what looked to be a very burnt to the crisp right arm. He smiled sadistically up at his brother, knowing that he was taking his sweet time, torturing to poor creature step by sweet step. The pinnacle of his torture came a few quick minutes later, when Aleric circled the Sidhe, round and round at a rapid pace, lighting what was left of the creature’s body on fire, since his limbs had already been burned off. The temperature got to be too much, which resulted in the creature being obliterated from the air, leaving nothing of its existence behind.<br><br>Slowing down, the form of fire slowly started to die down, until what was left of it was merely the form of Aleric, as he had been when they had awoken this morning. The only thing that was different was the slice on his shoulder from the Sidhe. Ignoring the pain and the bleeding, he rushed over to Daric’s side, leaning down and helping to cradle Annibyn’s head in his hands.

				She could feel the ice around her shatter, she was still conscious enough for that, but her eyes were shut, frozen and her breath was hardly coming. Annibyn felt so cold, so horribly cold. The girl tried to fight it, trying to find warmth to chase away the cold but she was so weary, it was all to easy to sink, sink deeper and deeper. Annibyn was fading, the light that lingered beneath her skin was fading with it.<br><br>And then warmth snaked into her, she felt hands, hands were touching her, heat pouring into her, sunshine, sunshine which was tied so closely to her own powers yet to come. Her magic flickered over her skin, called by his touch. His touch moved over her body and she moved slightly, breath slowly easing back up from near nothing to a very thin something. Being frozen from the inside out was not a very pleasant thing to have happen, nor was it really easy to undo.<br><br>Yet she summoned the magic that was at her core, she pushed it outward, slowly but steadily pushing the heat of the sunshine within her soul outward. Magic gleamed and a beam of sunlight seemed to flash down directly upon her body, lifting her up out of their hands. The heat of the sun caressed down her, fueling her own magic as the Goddess appeared inside Annibyn's mind.<br><br><em>She was tall, but then not, a cloak covered her and when Anni managed to look within the hood the face that was there changed constantly. The Goddess was all women and no woman. Yet she knew the Goddess was in her tender aspect as her hand reach out to cup the girl's cheek, laughter coming that was like the bray of hunting hounds and the sounds of the wild night.<br><br>"My Daughter, do not turn aside the blessings offered to you. You must accept what is within your heart, for your power as your feelings is tied to it. Sidhe, our people are meant to be of the earth and natural, do not hide yourself away but rather rejoice in what you can be."</em><br><br>The figures of Daric and Aleric appeared then, upon the hill beside the great white oak under which she and the Goddess spoke. Anni felt eyes and knew they were Her's, so she turned to look at her, a smile curved upon Her lips. "They would tempt even a Goddess, do not deny your heart. Sunshine and love, sunshine and love my Daugther." And with that she faded, the lingering scent of vanilla and wood musk filling Anni's senses.<br><br>Her eyes fluttered open, lips parting as she gasped, her body jerking in their hands before relaxing against them again. Eyes of spring flowers focused on the two faces she cherished the most now. And she smiled faintly, licking her lips, her voice hoarse as she whispered "Well...the Goddess likes you." And she knew then that she would surrender herself completely to them for eternity.

				Daric and Aleric blinked at her, having no clue about what it was that she was mumbling about. In a way that they were glad that she was safe and alive, but on the other hand, they had to remember to not get close to her again, at least not emotionally. They wouldn’t deny her the pleasure of their touch, because she needed it to survive because of the way that her species thrived, but they would make sure and keep as just something sexual between the three of them, when the time came for her to have use of their bodies again. They had promised her mother that they would keep her alive and that is what they intended to do.<br><br>Daric took her up in his arms silently, figuring that she would not be able to walk right now, given the frozen condition her body had just been in. Quietly, he took her inside, closing the door behind them with his mind after Aleric had followed them inside, his shoulder still bleeding. By the looks of it, he would need stitches in order to make sure that everything was fixed properly. Daric settled her down to a lying position on the couch, silently investigating her body for any marks or cuts that she might have suffered when she walked out. Finding none, he stood up and walked down the hall, his heavy footsteps making the floorboard in the house creek loudly.<br><br>His brother got up from the couch, clutching his shoulder and heading into the bathroom, to asses the damage in front of the mirror before he attempted to even try and fix anything himself. He was used to most wounds that one could get, having fought as a warrior for almost ten years, and had no trouble tending to them himself. He just had to wait a few minutes sometimes, so that it wasn’t so tender when he tried to touch it. Sniffing his skin, he came to the conclusion that the ice spear had no poison on it, which was something that he was afraid of.<br><br>Daric entered her bedroom, and looked at the drawers in her dresser. Silently, he went through each one, trying to find something appropriate for her to wear. Some of the things that he took out were too flimsy and would show off her body more than he wanted her to be shown off, and he growled, tossing those garments aside, making a mental note to use his hand to burn them later on. He shook off those thoughts from his head as they came to him. He had to remember to not let all of this bonded male crap get to him. She was not his, and would never be his so staking any sort of claim over her would lead to nothing good. It would just be better if he trained his mind to forget about the fact that it wanted her in every single way possible.<br><br>Finding a suitable dress, this one a satiny lavender and silver with thin straps that went down her feet, he brought those back out to her.<br><br>“Would you like me to help you change?” he asked her, his eyes avoiding the task of looking at her as he held the garment out to her. “If you want something else to wear let me know and I’ll go get it if you tell me where I can find it,” he told her. “I didn’t know where to go looking in your drawers for your things and this was the first suitable thing that I could’ve found,” he explained.

				Why didn't they understand? They were pulling away from her even as she lowered the metaphysical shields she had kept around her for so long. She did not fight as Daric carried her into the house, nor did she move when his hands moved over her body checking for injury. She was so grateful to them but both of them left her her alone, alone for the first time since they had been in her house.<br><br>Annibyn blinked in surprise, she couldn't understand what was happening, and then it made sense. She had rejected them to save their lives when there had been no need. And they still saw it as rejection and so had rejected her in kind. Had it been the night before, before they had kissed and touched her, before they had woken her with breakfast in bed; she would have simply moved on and let them act like this. But no, not now, she wanted, needed what they had offered her just a few hours ago. And so she would earn it back.<br><br>She didn't stay put, not with both of them off somewhere else, shutting themselves away from her. Annibyn got to her feet, making her way to the bathroom, standing behind Aleric, it felt odd, he had been her just last night. And the girl knew she could no other then what he had done last night, to offer herself completely to him, to heal him, love him. Anni took a step forward, her hand going up to touch the wound; he was so much taller then her, and so she raised up onto tiptoe her lips brushing softly over the wound.<br><br>Like the night before her magic was based on touch, and so she trailed her hands up and down his back, caressing, adoring. Her lips parted, tongue coming out to lap at the wound like he had down to her back the night before, only this wasn't to seal it, it was to heal it from the inside out. She sent her magic into him through her parted lips, sending her love as well. She moved, blushing but wanting to fix the injury so she moved to see him, looking up at his face and hoping he would reject her as she closed her eyes and her body flared with magic as she gave herself over to the heat of healing.<br><br>She left him then, dizzy from the power she had used so soon after the ice, brushing away a tear as she went into the hallway. She couldn't find her voice to speak, her throat still felt far to sore but if either of them reached for her thoughts it was clear there. Anni started when Daric came before her, offering her a dress. But he wouldn't look at her. Her hands reached out, taking the dress from his fingers even as she leaned up to brush her lips against his cheek, tears slipping down her face. She willed one thought clear into the air, to both of them. I am sorry my loves.<br><br>And then she simply stripped away her nightgown, leaving her bare and nude before them, taking a risk, wanting to know if the sight of her could still rouse them before she slowly slipped the dress on, gathering her hair over one shoulder and turning her bare back to Daric. "Help?" she managed to say.

				Daric nodded, knowing that he could do nothing to stop himself to responding to the call of help that she needed from him and reached forward, slipping the dress down the rest of her body gently, letting his fingers brush against her soft skin before he leaned in, brushing a soft kiss against the back of her neck before could stop himself.<br><br>Aleric had followed her to the door, and was watching the scene inside carefully. He had heard her thoughts when she had told both of them that she was sorry. He had felt her emotions in that kiss that she had placed to his skin and he knew that she could not be upset with her anymore. He was not that cruel of a bastard. He was not one to intentionally hurt a woman in any way shape or form and he certainly was not planning on starting on doing such a thing now.<br><br>“Please do not do that again,” Daric whispered, leaning down and nuzzling her neck softly. While he was going to take the chance and open up to her again, he would wait for her to decide what she wanted to do with them. They had made an offer to her this morning, and they hoped that she didn’t forget about it. The offer still stood just as much now as it did this morning when they had first proposed it to her.

				Annibyn felt something inside her ease when he helped her, his hands moving over to fit the dress against her body, enjoying the feel of his touch upon her skin. When she felt his lips softly touch the back of her neck she felt hope again. Perhaps she had not ruined everything after all. It was reassuring to know that she was not the only one who could not keep her hands and wants to herself.<br><br>The girl glanced at Aleric, eyes seeking to know how he felt, wanting to know that she still fit into his heart somehow. Wanting to see a light in his eyes as he looked at her and know that she was still the one for him. It was happening so fast, the bond that was growing between her and these boys but it felt so right. This is what the legends spoke of, of how it worked when ones very soul recognized another, or in her case, two others as their mate.<br><br>Those bright eyes fluttered shut when Daric nuzzled her neck, she relaxed at the touch, enjoying it and nodding at his words. She didn't really want to get frozen from the inside out again regardless. Her throat still hurt from it. He was warming up to her again, both of them were, so she shyly tugged on their hands, making sure they were both looking at her, one hand each to one brother.<br><br>"I am yours." She said it, simply, without adornment, because it was the truth, from her soul, her heart, her mind, the magic of her body, every part of her was theirs alone and set afire by them. It just became clearer when her skin was glowing.

				Both boys looked up, taking in her face, and then her lips, the same ones that had spoken those sweet words that they had longed to hear. At first they just blinked, not believing that she had said what she did, and had to let it register in their heads fully before they looked at her. “Are you sure?” Daric asked her quietly, his eyes glancing up at hers, wanting to make sure that she was absolutely sure that this was what she wanted.<br><br>“You have to be absolutely sure that this is what you want,” Aleric told her quietly, his fingers playing with the side of her neck softly. His fangs came out of his gums, as he eyed her neck, feeling the flow of blood running through her veins beneath the soft touch of his fingers.

				She had not expected this response out of them but she was not going to run, not going to hide. She wanted them as they wanted her. Yet there was a strength and darkness in them she had not known before, possession was looking at her, surrounding her as Aleric's breath whispered against her skin. Annibyn's eyes fluttered shut as she sighed softly, feeling his power like a whisper against her skin. "I do." She answered softly to him.<br><br>From her alone, she was theirs but they would also be hers, they would be together in a way that no one could ever take away. Drinking from her, her blood was magic come to life, and they were something new to her, something she did not want to be without. Not after the night before. As Daric spoke she shivered, a soft sound of excitement, of delight coming from her lips. "I want it. I want to be yours, and only ever yours."<br><br>Scream and squirm, her mind flashed back to the shower the night before, the way their hands had moved over her skin, the pleasure that had filled her body and made her shine. Anni trembled slightly but nodded, her throat working. She shook back her hair and lifted both her arms, one toward each. "I am yours, forever."

				Simultaneously, both men leaned down to her hand. Kissing over the vein on her wrist, they made their way upwards on her arm, kissing and licking across her soft skin as they went about their task. Slowly, they made their way to her shoulder, using their fangs to nip at her skin softly, but not enough to leave marks yet. Getting to her neck, both men slowly let their tongues lap at her skin, tasting, stroking and relishing in the softness that she had for flesh.<br><br>Daric looked up at her, his eyes flashing almost white before he went back to her skin. In one fluid movement, he lifted her up in his arms and wrapped her legs around his waist. Aleric followed them as they walked back towards the bedroom, shedding his shirt in the process. Daric put her down on the bed, and turned, slipping his shirt up and off of his body as well. Smiling at her, he licked his lips. Slipping the tie out of his hair, he drew her own hair back and tied it in a bun, keeping it off of her neck and shoulders as they preferred it for the time being especially when they were about to feed from her.<br><br>Aleric smiled at her, and took her hand, drawing her up on her knees on the bed. Getting on the bed behind her, he eased her body back so that her back rested comfortably against his front, while keeping her facing Daric who was standing in front of her. Slowly, both boys leaned in, kissing her neck again. This time the kisses had a bit of a fevered feel to them. Their fangs went grazing at her skin, their tongues seeking out that perfect spot. When they found it, they kissed the spot and flicked their tongues over it. Clearly, both men spoke in her mind. “Mine.” Then, their fangs sank into her flesh, blood spilling to the surface, which they lapped up hungrily.

				She felt the most alive when they touched her, the minute their lips touched against her skin light flickered beneath it. Anni stayed still for them, wanting to tremble, her knees unsteady as they worked their way up her arms. her breath caught as they reached her neck, and she waited, expecting them to sink their fangs into her soft skin then. But they didn't, rather Daric's eyes filled her vision for a moment and then his arms were guiding her again, urging her legs up to wrap around his waist like they had the night before. Memories of the shower, of their bare bodies pressed together flashed through her mind. Only this time it was she alone who was bare, nude completely to their clothed. Because it was her who was offering herself to them.<br><br>She curled her body into his, sighing softly, her heart still racing within her breast. Today would be the end of what she had known, she knew that deep down in her heart, in the core of her soul. Because beyond just their marks, beyond just becoming theirs she would be giving way to the magic that was her birthright. She would be coming into the hands of power that would make her a true Princess of the Seelie. With them by her side she would not have to run anymore, but by being with them she couldn't run.<br><br>Anni went onto the bed with no fight, watching as Daric stripped his shirt off, her eyes glued to him much in the same manner that they had been the night before. The girl smiled when he tied back her hair, the heavy wealth of summer wheat silk caught up and baring the slender column of her neck. Now she did not even have her hair to hide her figure from them.<br><br>Annibyn tilted her head back to smile at Aleric, moving as his hands directed, up onto her knees before settling back into him, a happy sigh leaving her lips as their bare skin touched. She rubbed herself against him before stilling as both of the twin's lips touched her neck once more. It was coming, it would be soon, she shivered feeling the scrape of their fangs, her spring colored eyes fluttering shut. Her mind was filled with their possession as their minds spoke into hers and their teeth sank down into her skin to taste her blood.<br><br>She gasped, body arching slightly between them as they fed from her neck, a fine tremor wracking her body. "Yours..." she breathed.

				"Relax," Aleric whispered in her head. As his mouth worked on the side of her neck, his hand gently rubbed her side. His face got to be level with hers and he looked into her eyes, as he continued to drink slowly. His pulls on her skin was slow and sensual, his lips playing upon her soft, smooth flesh. They weren't going to just feed from her. They were going to make her feel good too. Feel very good. "We’re going to learn how to touch you. We’re going to learn how to make you feel good, so that I can bring you pleasure again, and again, and again." Daric said in her head, his fangs nipping at her as he spoke to her. "We want to hear you moaning and writhing in pleasure underneath us in our bed.." he said in a voice so low and sultry. "Would you like that, sweetheart?" he whispered hotly in her ear.<br><br>They broke away from her neck, licking the wounds only half shut. By this time, the room was starting to fill with that wonderful smell from the night before. Their bonding scents were alive and positively roaring in the room. They had felt that her skin was not properly coated with it, and were going to finish the job properly this time, so that when they were done, their scent on her would be like a second skin. Slowly, Daric leaned down, kissing across her collarbone, and down further, his lips stroking and breathing out against the softness of her skin. Aleric looked at her, his hand coming to her front. Gently, he roved over her stomach, trailing up past her ribcage, until his fingers touched the underside of her free breast. Slowly, he started to tease the skin, drawing closer and closer to her nipple as he went.<br><br>“So pretty,” Daric murmured, looking at her nipple, studying it carefully. His head moved around slowly from side to side, taking in the body part from all different angles. He looked at it reverently, almost like he had never seen such a thing before in his life. The look in his eyes conveyed nothing but awe and pure love. “I bet they taste good too, don’t they?” he murmured, looking up at her.

				Relax, relax how could she do that when they were both around her, surrounding her, possessing her. Her eyes opened to glance at Aleric, the depths of her purple gaze dark and filled with passion and want. A soft whimper worked her throat as his teeth tease her skin, so slow and sensual it sends the heat and light spiraling into her center. Learn, learn her body inside and out, learn how to make her fall apart beneath their hands. Pleasure, heat, light, magic, it all mixed and swirled around them, around her.<br><br>At Daric's words she shivered again, a soft sound of excitement working her throat. Annibyn nodded, her eyes fixed on his, heat gathering in the center of her body. She squirmed slightly in their arms, her whole body clenching with the need they where giving birth to.<br><br>She whimpered in protest when they left her neck, her lips forming a moue. She didn't want them to stop, to stop drinking from her. She could smell them, their scents, smell her own scent mixing with theirs, they where covering her, submerging her. A soft sigh came from her lips at the kiss on her collar bone to be followed by a soft gasp as the hand of Aleric's moved up her flat stomach to touch the soft fullness of her breast. Anni trembled, her body shaking softly as his finger teased closer and closer to the hard nub of her nipple.<br><br>When Daric's voice came again, this time focusing on her breast she flushed, her cheeks pink and smiled softly, shyly. She was a creature of magic, and right now the magic of lust and sex was spilling through her veins as it had been meant to since her birth. "I don't know..." she answered softly, her eyes half lidded as she smiles with the expression of a lover. "but...please...find out."

				Daric grinned up at her, the smile on his face matching the one on hers.&nbsp; “I intend to,” he told her, his voice a low, purring rumble as he all but breathed those words to her.&nbsp; He made a fist with one of his hands, and brought it to her breast.&nbsp; Hard knuckles brushed over her soft, smooth, creamy flesh in a tender, soft movement that seemed almost uncharacteristic for someone that was of Daric’s size and stature, who was clearly a warrior, not one of those polished pansy men that were too soft for the fear that they would so something to hurt their females, or that they weren’t sure that what they were doing what they were supposed to.<br><br>Aleric, taking his brother’s lead, leaned down and captured the other nipple in his mouth, stroking and caressing the tight bud slowly back and forth as if drawing out the gesture.&nbsp; He paid attention to each side of her nipple, making sure to use different movements and strokes of his tongue to pleasure her, listening carefully to any sounds that she would make that would give him some indication of what she liked sexually.&nbsp; He and Daric both planned to learn her body inside and out, along with how and where to touch her.&nbsp; She was going to never be without that which she needed to survive ever again.<br><br>Daric’s hands reached behind her, stroking and caressing her soft skin on her back.&nbsp; His fingertips pressed into the indent of her spine at the base of her back.&nbsp; Slowly, he moved upwards in a soft, circular motion, massaging the delicate line of bones, as if trying to release all of the tension from her body.&nbsp; With a low growl, he pushed both his brother and his lover back, Aleric landing on the bed, in a sitting position.&nbsp; Anni landed on top of Aleric, and Daric straddled Anni’s lap, his erection pressing as a hot and heavy weight against her hips.&nbsp; He ground into her gently, letting her feel how aroused he was for her.<br><br>“Think you can handle that?” Daric asked, his voice low and thick as his green diamond gaze focused in on her delicate face.&nbsp; “Can you handle having both of us, and not just in bed, sweetheart?” he asked her, his finger trailing down, over her ribcage.&nbsp; It went down further, to her stomach, tracing slow, light circles around her bellybutton as he waited for her to answer his question.<br>

				She shivered softly as his voice flowed over her, his knuckles brushing her full breast. When Aleric moved and took a nipple in his moth she cried out softly, her back arching into that hot mouth, trembling as his lips and tongue worked over her. Soft, sweet whimpers worked her throat, her breasts were high, nipples hard buds, aching for the brothers as the rest of her body stirred to life and the light beneath her skin began to flick and play.<br><br>As Daric's fingers move up her spine she shivered softly, distractedly, her eyes fluttering shut as the glow deepened, she was like a rising star between the wins. She stumbled slightly when pushed, sinking to sit on Aleric's lap. Her sweetly shaped ass shifted over his lap as Daric moved to sit on her. As his body ground into hers she lifted her hips, alternately rubbing her body against each of the twins, her eyes darkening and then shining, like flowers in the dawn light, so bright and pure.<br><br>Annibyn licked her lips softly at his question, her eyes showing her love, and also her nervousness, she had never been with anyone like this before. "I...think so...I want you both..so badly..." she murmured to them, her breath was coming quick now, her skin and eyes glowing, shining, she was all magic and love for them. "I will learn if you teach me..."

				Anni inhaled shakily, smiling at the words, she knew they would, that was why she was here, with them like this, because she loved them and they would teach her. Show her pleasure and love and let her give those to them as well. This was right. The girl still trembled slightly at the sight of Daric's manhood hard and swollen with want for her, she had never been nude before males before, never gone this far. But it was right.<br><br>Her legs parted easily for Aleric and when his fingers found the slickness of her desire she blushed. His fingers were apt to find the core of her body though and when they entered her, filling her she cried out softly, trembling on his lap, her head tossed back against his shoulder, cheeks flushed as she panted. "Never...lain with anyone before. I am a virgin..."

"I do not care, I wish to be yours, in every way that I can.

				Annibyn was easily distracted by the wicked smile on Aleric's lips, her breath caught at just how handsome her lovers were once more. Then her body trembled, feeling Daric slid into her body. The Princess gasped softly, her legs parting to make it easier, her breath hissing in when she took another breath. "Wonderful...but, stretched. The pain will not last long right?" The shine in her eyes flickered and there was some nervousness in them, yet the note in her voice made it clear she would trust what they told her.<br>

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"The pain itself...no,"Daric told her with a tender sweep of his knuckles down her cheek. "Afterwards,when it is all said and done, you'll be a bit sore, my love," he told her,his hips moving slightly more to slide into her further. His eyes never left hers. Aleric smiled and ran his fingers through her hair, and then sweeping down her body in a tender gesture.</span>

				She nodded, listening and trusting, though when he moved in more she let out a soft sound and her eyes fluttered shut. Her body was tense now, braced against the pain that was starting to enter it. Yet it was still slick with desire, with her want for them and her breath was mostly even, soothed by the touch of Arleic's hands. "To be with you...is worth it" she murmured faintly.

Aleric said softly.&nbsp; "Just give yourself a minute to get adjusted.."</span>

				She let out a muffled sound of pain, biting down into her lower lip to keep from upsetting the brothers with her cry. Her body clenched tightly around Daric, her lips parted as she inhaled, shaky and trembling. Annibyn tried to regulate her breathing more, shifting slightly and nodding at Aleric's words. Her body slowly relaxed from the pain, adjusting to the size and shape of Daric within her.

				Annibyn's eyes fluttered open then, looking at both of them and nodded slowly, her breath coming easier now, the pain having slowly faded. Then Daric moved and her breath caught, but for a whole different reason now, and a soft happy whimper worked her throat at the sliver of friction that sent pleasure into her, her skin flickering back to life with its pale rising sun.

				She trembled, surprised but not upset at the sound of Aleric's voice inside her, it made sense, that her lovers would be able to see within her mind, to be with her in every sense of the word. Her light shone brighter, and one of the secrets of the sidhe was revealed, the very lines of her being were blurred, she was pure magic, her aura mingling with them until she had nearly become one with them as the pleasure continued to fill her and she withered against Aleric as Daric filled her body with his thrusts.

"yes...Yes I am...please...oh please I am so close..." she begged softly, sensing that he was holding something back, she was grateful for the tenderness, for the love yet even as her glow sprang to life that was a need for all of her lover and so she pleaded with her eyes, with the way her hips touched his for him to take her completely.

When Daric spoke though she glanced at him, curious before letting out a soft sound when the covers were pulled away. She still wasn't use to being nude in front of them, and before had been in thhe heat of the moment. She bites down on her lip, blushing hard as they clean her virgin's blood away from her. When Aleric bathed her sex with a washcloth she trembled softly and then laid back, letting them do as they wished and hoping she will get use to it soon.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"You should definitely get used to it, princess.." Daric murmured with an impish smile on his handsome features.&nbsp; He smiled cheekily at her, before continuing.&nbsp; "Or should I say Queen?" he asked with a wink, referring to their earlier conversation about them taking the thrones soon in their own country.</span><br><br>The girl glanced at him and blushed, forgetting that they could easily read into her mind. A Queen and with two lovers who she cared for more then anything, and she would be loved and safe. That was more then she had ever hoped for. Anni suddenly found tears gathering in her eyes and she turned her head to burying her face in the pillows as she wept softly.<br><br>

"Nay, the ring leader is my grandfather, you can not kill the King of the Seelie, not and live. I have made my peace and as long as I am never harmed again I wish no vengence..." she trailed off slowly, she was clearly falling asleep "Please...my loves..."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">&nbsp; &nbsp; "Very well, sweetheart," Daric said as Aleric nodded in response.&nbsp; "As you wish," he said, as both men cuddled against her body, closing their eyes, and letting sleep take them over much like she had done.</span>

She didn't have to sleep for just short periods of time anymore, there was no need to fear, she could rest easy, with her two lovers on either side of her, she was safe.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">About two hours later, Aleric lifted his face from her neck and glanced at her sleeping form.&nbsp; She looked quite peaceful and he took in the opportunity to take in her beauty, which he knew had been unmatched by any other he had come in contact with at this point in his life.</span><br><br>A soft yawn split her lips and she snuggled deeper into the blankets, at peace for now and happily warm in the blankets. She squirmed back slightly into him, instinctively wanting them both as close as possible to her.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">He let out a soft chuckle, letting his fingertips glide down her spine in a soft gesture, letting her know that he was indeed near her still and he wasn't going anywhere until she was ready for him to get out of the bed.</span><br><br>Anni stirred slowly, yawning again, and blinking sleep out of her eyes as she glanced up at him. There was a tender look in those tricolor eyes of hers as she looked at him. Her breath caught for a moment as she remembered the night before and she realized she was nude. Her eyelashes swept down, shielding her eyes as she blushed hard. "Good morning." the princess murmured softly.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Good morning and you are absolutely beautiful when you blush," Aleric said, his voice kind and seductive.&nbsp; As if to prove his point, he let his hands sweep down the front of her naked body in a soft touch, letting her know that he appreciated what he saw.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Her eyes wept up to look at him, her cheeks a lovely pink as she stared at him in surprise, but gratitude. She wanted to be beautiful to him, more then anything. As his body softly touched hers she shivered and a soft sound of pleasure came from her lips. She moved closer, kissing his cheek softly and then his lips. "thank you my love"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">&nbsp; &nbsp; "You are welcome.." he murmured.&nbsp; "Are you hungry?" he asked softly, starting to hold his wrist up to her mouth before catching himself and smiling softly.&nbsp; He would have to remember from now on that she was not a vampire.&nbsp; But that didn't mean that he could not provide for her, as that was what was ingrained in his genetic programming.&nbsp; "I can make you something to eat.."</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Her eyes flickered to his wrist and she frowned slightly, curious before she realized he was going to offer her his blood. She smiled at him, bright and ease and leaned in to kiss him again and nuzzle against his neck. "I would rather just have you, if its all the same."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">&nbsp; &nbsp; "Oh really now?" he murmured, as his fangs came out to nip at her ear again as she nuzzled his neck.&nbsp; His hands went into her hair, stroking and caressing it's way through the soft silky strands.&nbsp; "And what is the pleasure in having me?" he teased her, tickling her sides gently.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She smiled and then laughed softly as he teases her with his words and soft touch. She squirmed away slightly at the tickling at her sides, laughing bright and easy. "I love you, that's the pleasure in it" she responded, giggling hard as she was extremely ticklish.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">&nbsp; &nbsp; "Hmm..I think I've struck gold here, darling," he said, tickling her unmercifully now.&nbsp; He leaned in and pecked at her lips in between kisses.&nbsp; "And I love you too of course," he said, smiling in that heart-warming way of his.&nbsp; "You're safe now," he told her softly.&nbsp; "You know that, right?"</span>

				She gasped for air and laughed harder, squirming away and kissed him at the same time. The girl managed to nod at his question and pant out a "..yes..." as she had a convulsion of spasms and laughter and rolled away from him and right into Daric.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">Daric had been awake for a good few minutes now, and was listening to the display quite intently.&nbsp; When she rolled into him, he caught her arms.&nbsp; "Gotcha..." he purred in her ear and held her trapped as Aleric advanced and continued to tickle her.</span><br><br>She let out a yelp of surprise and squirmed in his arms, trying to break away from him as the tickling started again. She was thrashing beneath them, not from pleasure but from tickling and tears began to seep out of her eyes she was laughing so hard. Annibyn had never done anything like this and part of her stood in awe.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Just a word of warning," Daric murmured.&nbsp; "When given a choice, I will always help my brother gang up on you, and vice versa.." he murmured with a soft smile, as he kissed her neck softly.</span><br><br>She made a soft pouting sound, her face wrinkling in a cute way. "That's not very nice of you..." she muttered under her breath. It really wouldn't be, no way to win arguments if they happened, no other person to make silly teasing plans with. She hadn't thought of them ganging up on her and she glanced at them, wondering if it was only teasing or something more.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"We're just teasing love.." Aleric murmured with a smile.&nbsp; "We wouldn't do that to you.&nbsp; We have almost always played fair if anything else," he said with a kind smile.&nbsp; "And if anything, I will gang up on sleepyhead here," he grinned.</span><br><br>She smiled, reassured and grateful, and laughed out softly "Its a handy thing that, you two being able to read my mind. No misunderstandings...now, pax? Please, if you tickle me anymore I'm either going to soil myself or pass out"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">Daric laughed and let go of her arms and Aleric stepped away from her to let her get up and out of bed as she wished.&nbsp; "There's something we wanted to talk to you about," Daric said, speaking softly.</span><br><br>She moved to sit up, yawning to shake off the last of her sleep and she relaxed into the pillows. Her eyes moved to Daric and the girl smiled softly in response. "Okay, shoot."

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Well...Is there some rule that says you necessarily have to stay here?" Aleric asked gently.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Anni glanced at both of them curiously before shaking her head. "No, the Court doesn't really know where I am, or at least they didn't. I chose this place to hide. It was as good as any other and I like the ocean. I could leave rather easily, its lonely here, four years spent just me and the waves."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Then..you can..come back with us?" Daric asked softly</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Annibyn blinked before nodding slowly. "Its not like anyone else is demanding me to be somewhere, I have only rented this house..you can see there really isn't much here. If you want me to...I could easily"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"We think it would be safer there," he told her softly</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; The Princess smiled then and nodded "I'll go with you happily then. Only...where is there? What's it like?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">&nbsp; &nbsp; "It's not much different than here,"Daric told her.&nbsp; "It's a city, kind of crowded, but the major population is consisting of those of our kind," he told her.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp;"Vampires..." Annibyn breathed the word and lifted up her hands to touch the bite marks from the night before. They felt a bit sore now, as did the rest of her body. "They..how will they receive me do you think?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"They will receive you accordingly," Daric said with conviction in his voice.&nbsp; "As their queen.."</span>

				The girl blinked and then took in a shaky breath "Queen?"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Yes.." Daric said with a sigh.&nbsp; Sitting down on the bed, he took her hand again.&nbsp; "Our father cast us out from there about ten years ago," he said softly.&nbsp; "When he died, we had never gone back, mostly out of stubbornness.."</span><br><br>"And your father was King, so you two will rule and I'll be....oh goodness...I thought I would die before I ever saw a throne" She glanced at them both before nodding "I am a Princess, so I shouldn't shame either of you..."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"We are not worried about such things," Aleric said with a smile.</span><br><br>Anni ventured a soft smile in return. "I don't have much I want to take with me, when would you like to leave? More assassins might be coming too"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"We can leave as soon as the sun goes down," Daric told her with a smile.</span><br><br>"Why wait till the sun is gone?" She asked softly, curiously.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Because, if we are out in the sun for too long, we can get burned, sweetheart," Aleric told her.</span><br><br>"Oh...but you...saved me in the sunlight..." she murmured, frowning in confusion.

What do you mean by that?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Practice being a couple, darling," Aleric laughed.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; The girl blushed and nodded "Oh...that. Um...how does that work? I never dated, no one showed any interest in that.." She squirmed on the bed, obviously nervous and a little lost.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Well, one of the big things that needs to be present when one is in a relationship, is trust," Daric told her.&nbsp; "Complete, implicit trust..."</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She glanced at both of them and shrugged softly. "I do trust you, completely. Otherwise I would not have lain with you and given of my body. And my magic would have not come to life when you touched me."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">Aleric nodded and stroked her hair.&nbsp; "We also need you to be honest with us, my love...Especially when it comes to things that we might do that you might not like.."</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Anni giggled then, making a slight face "Like the tickling?" she asked in a teasing manner.

"But..I promise, I'll let you know, and you two can see my thoughts, so why worry?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Because we'd rather you be straight with us about that, than having to go into your head to see when things are going wrong.." he murmured.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; "Oh, well, okay, I can be honest with you, I love and trust you. it shouldn't be that hard right?"

				Annibyn smiled and then squirmed out from between them. "Okay then, no worries. However, I need the bathroom." She slipped off the bed, blushing as she realized she was nude and grabbed her lavender silk robe, that went with her eyes. She flashed them both a smile before disappearing into the bathroom to take care of her business. That done she moved to turn on the shower, just part of her normal morning routine. Only, should she invite them in? She frowned slightly trying to think of what to do as she toyed with the tie for her robe, waiting for the water to get hot in her large stall like shower.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">Daric and Aleric got out of bed, both grabbing their boxers and putting them on.&nbsp; Aleric grinned at his brother and nudged him towards the shower, once both men had heard the water turn on.&nbsp; Daric stopped and pondered for a moment.&nbsp; He wasn't sure if he should intrude in on her shower, when they hadn't been invited in.&nbsp; He knew that it was his brother's turn to have some alone time with their love, and later on, Daric would make sure Aleric got his alone time with her.&nbsp; Padding into the kitchen to make them some breakfast, Aleric left his brother alone to figure out if he wanted to join Anni in the shower.</span><br><br>Anni finally opened the door, glancing out into her bedroom, surprise to find just Daric there. She smiled at him and spoke "You can join me if you like, I always take showers first thing in the morning..."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Are you sure?" Daric asked her, a slow smile spreading across his lips.&nbsp; Gently, his knuckles came up to stroke her cheek softly.&nbsp; Leaning in, he brushed his lips gently against hers, waiting for her answer.</span><br><br>She nodded, smiling up at him as he caressed her cheek, when his lips touched hers she melted slightly into him. Her lips parted in welcome, showing that she would welcome in many ways and manners. Annibyn pulled back slightly from him and smiled "I would love to share my shower with you.." one hand came forward to tug on one of his as she withdrew back into the bathroom, shrugging out of her robe, letting it pull on the floor as she opened the door for the shower.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">Daric smiled at her, his smile crooked and devilish as he followed her inside the bathroom quite obediently.&nbsp; &nbsp;His eyes traveled down her delicious body, and he moved with her towards the shower stall, pausing on his way there to get her close to him.&nbsp; Pressing her gently against the counters of her bathroom, he bent his head, letting his lips drop to her neck, to kiss her there softly.</span><br><br>She glanced up at him confused as he pressed her back against the marble counters and she went, pliant to whatever he may wish. Her eyes fluttered shut as Daric brushed his lips against her skin, her pulse quickened a touch and she shivered slightly.<br>

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"What were you expecting me to do?" he breathed against her skin, as he kissed up her neck, pausing at her mouth as he waited for her answer.&nbsp; "You hesitated," he explained to her.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>She blushed, biting down on her lower lip as she looked at the ground, wondering what to say. "I..I don't know, just remembering last night. I'm sorry."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Daric smiled, and raised her head to look at him.&nbsp; "While I would like to have you again, I don't want to hurt you if I were to take you again so soon, my love.." he told her.</span><br><br>Her violet eyes glanced at him and she smiled shyly. "I wasn't thinking about the sex, but..the biting, your lips against my neck reminded me of the marking." A hand came up to touch against the marks left from the night before. "anyway, shower."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"And I meant my comment to refer to both things," Daric said, with a chuckle.&nbsp; "I don't want to take so much blood from you again until you've had a chance to replace it.."&nbsp; With that, he reached over and kissed the marks reverently on her neck, before opening the shower door for her.</span><br><br>"Oh" She blushed, feeling silly, her pulse quickening at the kiss on the marks, he hadn't meant it to most likely. but she could remember that perfect blinding moment when he and Aleric had made her theirs for the rest of her life. She stepped into the shower, going to stand under the spray, lifting up her hair to wet it as she reached for her shampoo.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font"> "Uh uh," he murmured, kissing the side of her neck again before reaching for the shampoo, gently prying it out of her hold.&nbsp; "There is a rule to showering with either of us," he said, referring to him and Aleric.&nbsp; "That rule is that we shower you when we're in here with you," he said with a grin.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp;Anni glanced at him in surprise as he took the container out of her hands. "I...oh, um, but why?" She asked, curiously. She couldn't understand why a full grown man would want to do something like that for her. It was sweet and endearing but surprising.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Personally, I find it to be a very nurturing and giving activity," he explained to her.&nbsp; "And not to mention fun, intimate and sexy.." he told her, watching her face carefully as he spoke.&nbsp; "It's something I think that I would have fun doing," he explained.&nbsp; "And..it lets me take care of you, which is something that comes first and foremost on my list of things to do," he explained.</span>

				Let him take care of her. The Princess glanced down in shock and then back up at him, smiling as she surrendered the bottle completely into his hands. "Well...then I'll happily let you do it." she smiled, love was clear in her eyes.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Smart female," he said grinning at her cheekily.Opening the bottle, he poured a good amount of the product into his hands and lathered them up, before applying it to her long tresses, his fingers gently massaging her scalp.</span><br><br>Annibyn laughed then, clearly amused by the way he had responded to her. She closed her eyes, tilting her head back to let him work it through her hair. "You are very good at this..."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Thank you," he murmured, tilting her head gently underneath the stream of water, using his hand to shield her eyes as the water rinsed all the suds from her hair.</span><br><br>Anni was surprised by the care he took about shielding her eyes and when the rise was done she glanced at him, curiosity in her eyes. "Have you done this to other females before?"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">Daric tensed for a fraction of a second, before answering.&nbsp; "Yes," he said softly.&nbsp; "A very long time ago.."</span><br><br>She simply nodded and reached for the conditioner, offering it to him, one hand going to muse her hair. "This next, and then I do body wash while the conditioner sets"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">He nodded and looked at her.&nbsp; He could feel her curiosity through their bond.&nbsp; "Her name was Kallista..And we were betrothed," he said softly.</span><br><br>She shook her head, blushing. "Its none of my business." And that was truly how she felt, though a little part of her was sad to know that he loved another. But then, it was a bit much, she reflected, to expect anyone to love her completely.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Don't even think that," Daric told her softly, seeing into her thoughts.</span><br><br>Annibyn glanced at him in shock before she blushed harder and turned her body away from him slightly, pouring out the conditioner he still hadn't taken and started working it through her hair. He could read her thoughts, know her emotions, and honesty was important, they had both just told her that. Yet she didn't want to be jealous or petty with them, and she hated herself for being upset over someone from a very long time ago. "I'm sorry." she murmured.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Why are you sorry?" Daric asked softly, turning towards her.&nbsp; His hand reached out to cup her hips, drawing her back against him.&nbsp; "You have nothing to be sorry for, but this is the type of thing that we want you to talk to us about, not just keep it bottled inside you.&nbsp; You have every right to be concerned about me having done something like this with someone else in the past, but you have to realize, that the past is going to stay in the past.&nbsp; You are our main focus now and for the rest of our days.."</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She went to him, not fighting, and she did want to touch him, wanted to feel his hands on her, that had always reassured her. the Princess curled in against him, glancing up at him as he spoke. "I don't want to seem jealous or silly I just...I don't know if I could share you." she flushed embarrassed at the confession.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"You won't have to," Daric said, his tone firm and assuring as he watched her carefully.&nbsp; "Neither Aleric nor I would ever ask you to do such a thing..."</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She glanced at him, confusion clear in her eyes. "But you share me."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Yes, we do," he said, nodding slowly.&nbsp; "I would rather share you with my brother, whom I know would love you and take care of you just as well as I can, rather than fight him to the death for you.."</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; "So shouldn't I be able to share you as well? without feeling worried that you'll love me less?" She asked softly, ashamed of herself.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"No," Daric told her.&nbsp; "Not with the level of bonding that we've done with you," he told her softly.</span>

				"Level?" She echoed back, obviously confused. "What do you mean by level?"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">He looked at her and smiled.&nbsp; "In our culture, there are many levels of bonding.&nbsp; What we did with you, is the highest level of bonding, meaning neither Daric and I, can have another mate.&nbsp; You may, but we can't promise we won't kill him.."</span><br><br>The girl blinked in surprise.

"I love you..."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">He smiled, wrapping both of his strong arms around her soft form. Placing a kiss atop her head, he smiled down lovingly at her, tucking her against his hard body.&nbsp; "I love you too, sweetheart," he said.</span><br><br>Her hands softly caressed him, exploring the hard planes of his body, and she smiled, feeling her heart contract at the words he spoke. "What is your home like?" she asked softly.

				"Oh. Well, no one used me in that manner...I told you and your brother, I was considered unclean."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">He smiled and nodded, clarifying.&nbsp; "I meant my brothers using you in that manner," he said softly.&nbsp; "But they are way too civilized for that.."</span><br><br>She glanced up at him in surprise "More brothers? How many..." she had grown up an only child, children were not common among the sidhe, as immortals it was near impossible to get children at times. The idea of more then two children to one couple was surprising.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"There are five others," he said with a smile.&nbsp; "They are not my biological brothers, but I consider them to be such," he explained.</span><br><br>"Oh, well...do you think they'll like me?" She asked softly.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Yes, I think that they will be quite smitten with you," he said.</span><br><br>She smiled, hoping it would be true, she wanted to be accepted by those he cared for. Anni laid a soft kiss on his chest before stepping back slightly. "So is showering together part of playing house?"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Yes..." he said grinning.&nbsp; "It is a big part of playing house," he chuckled.</span><br><br>She glanced at him curious, a touch confused "Most couples do this? I had never heard of that."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Yes, most couples do," he said smiling.&nbsp; "I dare say your parents were...well..prudes."</span><br><br>Annibyn laugh "My mother isn't. My father is...he also hated the sight of my mother. It was a marriage forced upon them."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Ahh...That makes sense," he said softly.</span><br><br>She smiled at him and lifted her arms to rinse out her hair "We stay in here much longer and we'll get pruny"

"So...you don't do this for anyone other then me now?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Nope...not even Aleric," he teased, winking at her and he splashed water gently over her body, rinsing the suds from her.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Annibyn laughed then, smiling at him. "Well that's good..." she relaxed and let the soaps rinse from her body.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">He wrapped his arms around her, standing with her underneath the water for a few more seconds, before reaching over and shutting it off.&nbsp; He stepped out of the stall and helped her out. Getting a towel, he took his time drying her before wrapping her in said towel and drying himself.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She smiled, relaxing into his arms as he held her before sighing as he helped her out and dried her off. She watched him as he dried off, tilting her head curiously. "So what do we do now?<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"We go have breakfast together...you, me and Aleric," he said with a smile, wrapping his own towel around his waist.&nbsp; Taking her hand, he led her back out into her bedroom, giving her time to get her clothes together to change.&nbsp; Walking back out, he went into the living and grabbed his own bag, bringing it back in and changing himself into a pair of black slacks and a black dress shirt.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; The girl nodded and smiled at him, following him happily into the bedroom before she pulled out white undergarments and a soft white summer dress. Anni zipped it up, the top part of it clung to her body, flaring out loosely beneath her breasts, looking sweet and flattering on her figure as she dried her long hair slowly, humming happily under her breath.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"You look beautiful," Aleric's voice said.&nbsp; He stood quietly in the doorway, his shoulder leaning against the frame.&nbsp; His sheer size made the space look dwarfed as he filled it.&nbsp; He smiled, his face lighting up, but his eyes were a bit distorted.</span>

				Annibyn turned, caught by surprise and then beamed at him, blushing softly at the compliment. "Thank you." she went without shoes and instead just went to him, hugging him to her and laying a soft kiss on his lips. "You look handsome."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"I am in boxers," he laughed, leaning down to kiss the tip of her nose.&nbsp; His eyes got darker, taking on the feel of something darker living inside him.&nbsp; His body was humming, and throbbing like it was on edge even though Aleric himself seemed to be calm.</span><br><br>She smiled and nodded "I know, but you are still handsome, you are both handsome to me...clothing or no clothing." She tilted her head, curious, worried as he seemed to tense, her hand softly touching against his heart "What's wrong?" she asked softly.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Nothing," he whispered, pulling away from her touch, finding that the humming and throbbing within him only got worse went she was near him.&nbsp; His beast wanted out,and she was the reason why.&nbsp; He had felt it last night when he was with her, but hadn't said anything.&nbsp; The other side of his personality wanted out, and since he was with her, his other half found it only fitting that he get a chance as well.</span><br><br>Anni frowned, confused and a bit hurt when he pulled away from her. She dropped her hands and nodded, going back to her vanity to brush out her hair. Aleric had something he wanted to keep from her, she was smart enough to know that. She ran a brush through her hair, working it threw, humming softly to herself again.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Such a beautiful little creature," the voice said, looking at her.&nbsp; His eyes were darkening, and his complexion was slowly changing.&nbsp; "Such tender flesh too..." he said, trailing a cold finger down Anni's neck.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Annibyn started and pulled away from him, shivering at the chill of his skin. "Something is wrong..." she said softly, confused. Magic was at work here. <em>Daric...please...come here, something's wrong.</em> she cast out her thoughts toward the other twin, wondering just what to do.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Daric heard the panic in her voice and hurried over to her side.&nbsp; Glancing to Aleric, he cursed underneath his breath.&nbsp; "Oh shit.." he muttered.&nbsp; "Anni..I need you to get out of this room, sweetheart.."&nbsp; Upon hearing this, the monster turned to her and growled.&nbsp; "She will not do any such thing..." he snarled.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; The Princess was glad when Daric came toward and she reached for him, curling her body into his slightly, she was fey, they needed touch to reassure themselves. At his words she nodded, slipping around him to head toward the door that led to the rest of the house, shivering at the sound of the voice coming out of Aleric. She glanced back, torn "Is...is he okay?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"That's not Aleric in there, sweetheart.."Daric murmured softly.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Her eyes darkened with worry but she nodded again, looking down before she reached for the doorknob and turned it to leaved the bedroom.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">The hand of Aleric reached out and closed around her wrist.&nbsp; "I said, you are not to go anywhere.." he snarled.&nbsp; "What part of that don't you understand, princess?"</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She jerked in surprise at the hard press of his hand around her wrist and tried to pull her hand free. "Let go!" She cried out softly, struggling. She was strong enough to bench press a house thanks to her magical blood but she had never been up against a warrior like him before. "Please Aleric...let me go love..." she pleaded<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Aleric?" the demon snarled.&nbsp; "I am not Aleric, Princess.." he said.&nbsp; "I see my precious brother has forgotten to introduce you to me.&nbsp; I am Aeric... My brother is not here and won't be here until I let him back out...So you best play nice.."</span>

				"Aeric..." she murmured, nodding, tears sparking in her eyes, his hold was hard and her struggles were making her tender skin bruise "Please...Aeric then, let me go, you're hurting me."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"I said, shut up!" he snarled, lifting his heavy palm in the air.&nbsp; The next second, said palm connected with her cheek, leaving a heavy imprint on her pristine skin.</span><br><br>She cried out, trying to move back, away from the hand before it struck her. She went down onto her knees, her wrist still held by him and whimpered, tears sparking in her eyes. "Daric...help" the sidhe whimpered out.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">Daric snarled and bared his fangs.&nbsp; Before he could move, there was a loud explosion and a burst of light in the room.&nbsp; When the light died down, standing in the center of the room, were two men.&nbsp; Both of whom looked identical to each other and to Daric.&nbsp; Aleric snarled, and grabbed the new man by his neck, wrapping his arms around his neck and choking him. Daric advanced on him and started raining blow after blow to the man's face and chest.</span><br><br>The Princess let out a soft cry of shock as the room seemed to explode. Annibyn curled up tightly, watching with fearful eyes as the brothers fought the third man. A hand came up to softly touch the red, throbbing flesh from the hard hit Aeric had given her. Her cheek felt sore and the skin angry, she trembled. Memories filled her eyes, of the old beatings the pain, the things she had thought were at an end. She hoped whatever was going on would be done soon so that Daric or Aleric could hold her, she wanted to feel loved again.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">The men continued to beat on Aeric who was now weak and had stopped fighting back.&nbsp; His lip was now busted and he had bruises covering his face and his neck.&nbsp; His shirt had gotten ripped in the process.&nbsp; Daric's hand started glowing, heating up with his power.&nbsp; He brought the hand down on the center of Aeric's stomach and the sound of searing flesh could be heard in the room.</span><br><br>"Stop!" She screamed the word, crawling forward, and moving to get between Daric and Aeric "Stop...please...no more violence, no more pain..." tears streamed down her cheeks as she looked at her loves and begged softly for them to halt. "I don't care that he struck me...just please, no more pain." She was shivering badly, clearly upset and overly emotional, it was taxing, seeing someone who looked so much like the twins she loved being hurt and she hated the sight or knowledge of anyone getting hurt, she just wanted to heal.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Daric looked at Aleric and they seemed to have a silent conversation between them.&nbsp; Daric dropped him to the ground.&nbsp; "Get the fuck out," he snarled at Aeric, before turning and heading towards Anni.&nbsp; As he got up, his shirt was a bloody mess, especially in the front.&nbsp; He limped, barely able to walk, to the door and went out.&nbsp; Aleric came over and wrapped his arms around her.&nbsp; "I am sorry you had to see that.." he whispered into her hair.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Annibyn curled into Aleric's arms for a moment, her breathing erratic and pulse quick. "Heal, he needs healing." She murmured, looking up at him. "He needs healing." she repeated, unsure of how she knew that so surely but she did. However she didn't think either brother was going to want her close to Aeric with his handprint still red on her face.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"He will heal himself.." Daric snarled, locking the door.&nbsp; "I don't want you anywhere near him.."</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Annibyn frowned up at him and shook her head, her expression stubborn. "No, remember, I snapped at you two when you first came to me. I didn't expect help. You took care of me." she started to glow faintly, she reached deep into herself for power and sent it out through the house, seeking the hurt male and spreading healing power through him before cutting it off, half done because it took more to heal from a distance and relaxed into Aleric's arms. "At least I did something..." she murmured.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Daric sighed and placed his head in his hands.&nbsp; "That was our triplet, if you haven't noticed.." Aleric said wryly.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She glanced up at them, a bit confused. "I thought there was only two of you. And..why would he hurt me?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"He's..cursed..My curse is to carry him inside of me," Aleric told her, bringing a warm, wet cloth to her cheek.&nbsp; "I don't...think he meant it.&nbsp; He really can't control it.."</span>

				She turned her face into the cloth, letting it ease the pain a touch. "Is there a way to break the curse?" She asked softly.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"We really don't know," Daric said, looking down at his hand, the same one that he had used on his brother.</span><br><br>Annibyn nodded "Very well...I'll mediate on it and ask the Goddess for guidance then."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">He nodded and looked at her.&nbsp; "It had to be done.." he whispered softly, sounding more like he was trying to convince himself than anything else.</span><br><br>Anni reached up to take hold of his hand, laying a gentle kiss on the palm. "You were trying to protect me right? Don't feel badly for doing what you felt you must, but do not withhold healing when it is needed either. The Goddess understands life must be taken and hurt, yet to balance it healing must be given as well to atone."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"He will not let you near him," Aleric said softly.&nbsp; "He will not let any of near him now," this time a hint of sadness laced his usual deep, calm voice.</span><br><br>Annibn smiled faintly. "I do not have to be close to him to heal him, he touched me, the touch still shows on my skin, I can still heal him. I think I did about a half way job just now...it wears me out to heal from a distance but I can do it."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"We...will take you to him..." Daric said softly.&nbsp; "But..we won't leave you alone with him.."</span><br><br>The girl smiled softly up at Daric. "He is your brother, I can feel the pain in your hearts. By healing him perhaps I can heal that pain as well."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">Aleric nodded and helped her up.&nbsp; Leading her outside, they walked across the sand dunes.&nbsp; They walked further back from the shore, towards a row of caves.&nbsp; Gently carrying Anni up the ledge, they stopped outside the cave entrance.&nbsp; Inside, they could see Aeric's figure sitting huddled against the wall of the cave.&nbsp; He was wetting a torn piece of his shirt in a pool of water and using it to clean the wound on his stomach.&nbsp; Daric turned and looked away when he saw this, his face falling at the sight.</span><br><br>Anni stood on her own and went to kiss Daric softly to reassure him, giving of herself freely before she moved toward Aeric. She knew the twins were on edge behind her and ready to spring to action. She summoned the white heat of her healing powers and knelt next to him, reaching toward him, her tricolor eyes soft and accepting "Let me help you."<br>

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"I can do it," he said quietly, his voice soft and shaky now.&nbsp; He seemed to move away from her slightly as she approached him, afraid that something else would happen</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She frowned, making a soft moue as he moved away. "No, everyone needs help. I am a Healer." She moved forward again, putting her hands on his skin and sending her power working through his body. She let her eyes flutter shut and her skin lit up with her power as she worked to heal his hurts.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">He stiffened underneath her touch, expecting the worse to come out of this simple gesture as she healed him.&nbsp; He could feel the wounds sealing shut as the light that she held within her was transferred over to his skin.&nbsp; "Thank you," he whispered softly, when the cut had sealed up.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Her power was a soft thing, gentle and warm, moving over his skin and she caressed her fingers over the worst of the wounds as it healed, drawing a rune of well wishing upon it. "If you did not hurt others, pain would come less to you. The Goddess is about balance." She got to her feet and then offered her hand to him, a soft smile on her lips. "I know you did not think before you hit me, I forgive you."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">He nodded at her, looking at her hand like if it was the strangest thing he had seen when it was offered to him.&nbsp; He took it and gently got up.&nbsp; "You are most kind," he said softly, but even then his voice was strangely detached.&nbsp; He dropped her hand when he was standing and looked down at the floor, not knowing what to do next</span>.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She had wondered if he would really take her hand and was happy when he did. It was a good sign and so she stepped forward, toward him and took his hand again, tugging slightly. "Come back with us, I'll cook dinner while you and your brothers talk. Healing is more then just magic, its love and I know deep down there must be love between you three."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Aleric looked down and so did Daric.&nbsp; They knew that it would be a while before Aeric ever forgave them, Daric in particular, if he did at all.&nbsp; Thinking back now, what they had done to him had been cruel and malicious and they wished that they could take it back, but alas they couldn't.</span>

				Anni looked from one brother to the next and then the next, her eyes holding concern and tender care. She wanted to heal them all. "Please, all three of you, for my sake at least try to get along. Its my last day at my home, I want to enjoy it."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">You're taking her back?" Aeric asked his brothers softly, and Daric nodded.&nbsp; "I..My hand...I shouldn't have.."

Please don't cut him off."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Why should I not cut him off?&nbsp; Is it not what he did to me just an hour ago?" Aeric asked Anni, his eyes watching her carefully</span>.<br><br>She shook her head. "He did it because you had done something to hurt what he loved." She lifted a hand to touch the mark still on her pale skin. "Balance Aeric, the Goddess puts balance into our lives. You gave pain and received pain. I healed you and you must give a healing of your own. So listen to your brother, please." She leaned up, obviously not afraid and laid a soft kiss on his cheek. "Give and receive, fear and pain are part of the balance but work through them."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Fear and pain are part of the balance," he repeated.&nbsp; "I have known only pain and fear and suffering my entire life.." he told her quietly.&nbsp; "Do you think I want to be like this?" he asked her, his eyes narrowing.&nbsp; &nbsp;"Have you any idea how much hurt this wretched curse has put me through?&nbsp; How many beatings I've had to endure at the hands of those who are cruel?"</span><br><br>Annibyn nodded sadly, opening her mind to him, touching him softly so he could see her memories, the beatings and pain, the hands of those who carried her own blood who tortured her. "I know...I understand. But you can not be like them. That makes what they did right."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"I don't care if it was right or not," he whispered. "I know only what it is that I have had to live with, and it has not been pretty, Princess," he told her softly.&nbsp; "It is things that would make even you, who has been through so much, cringe...."</span><br><br>"Perhaps, but I have not lived it, so I can only offer the balm of my healing and my touch if you wish it. And I ask that you not harm me again. I promise, by the Light and the Goddess and by the Darkness that eats all things to never harm you." She spoke the most binding oath of her people, showing that he could trust her.

"I am fey, we know the comfort that comes from touch, the healing that simply being held or caressed or kissed can give. I do not promise sex because I do not sleep easily with anyone and your brothers have bonded me. But I can give you small comforts if you wish them."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"If...only if...that is alright...with my brothers," he said softly, his breathing coming out slowly as he fought control of himself.&nbsp; He looked at her and then looked back down, trying to process things in his head as best that he could manage.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Annibyn smiled, reassured by his answer and took a step back toward Daric and Aleric and swayed a touch, blinking in surprise. "Oh...I think I might have overextended myself with the magic.." she murmured softly to herself<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp;<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font"> Both pairs of arms from Daric and Aleric reached out and brought her back against their bodies, letting her rest against them.&nbsp; "What do you need my love?"

"I need to lay down for a bit, not move much and food. I'll get my energy back quickly enough."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Very well," Aleric said, taking her up in his arms and starting to walk back with her to the house.&nbsp; Daric followed him, and Aeric rounded out the back end.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; The Princess curled tight into Aleric's arms, letting her eyes flutter shut as they head back to the house. A soft yawn parts her lips and she nuzzles his chest. "Thank you love" she murmured.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Of course, sweetheart," Aleric whispered, looking at her, his eyes tender and sweet as he carried her inside.&nbsp; Once there, he laid her out on the couch, placing a soft blanket over her.&nbsp; "I always have to stop myself from asking you if you want blood," he chuckled.</span>

				She cherished the way he looked at her, clinging to him a bit when he put her down, reaching out to twine her fingers with his. "Blood has magic, it could restore my magic but on an empty stomach its likely to just make me ill." she said, reasoning things out with the histories she knew of her people. "Sex and blood, that is what brings life." she laughed softly "I'm thinking you like those two."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"You just wait til tonight, female," Daric purred at her lustily.&nbsp; "You'll see just how much we truly love those two things..." he smirked arching an eyebrow at her.</span><br><br>Anni laughed "Female? So much for endearments" she teased back at him, enjoying the easy manner. Her stomach growled then and she giggled, blushing softly. "I think I need food first before either of those,"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"I shall get you something.." Aleric said, looking at her before dematerializing to her kitchen.</span><br><br>The girl smiled and relaxed back into the couch. "I'm sorry, I must seem silly to you warriors."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"I can only speak for myself, my lady, but I do not find your presence nor anything about you silly in any way," Aeric told her, a smile on his face for the first time.</span><br><br>Annibyn lit up at the smile on his face and the words he spoke. She had not expected him to be kind to her. "Oh, thank you. I feel silly to be worn out so easily sometimes."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"There is nothing silly about that.&nbsp; You are a female.&nbsp; You should not be made to exert yourself in any manner," he told her, nodding kindly.</span><br><br>Her eyes narrowed then and there was a faint spark of annoyance. "I have twice as much magic at my control then you or your brothers combined. I may not physically match you but trust me, my mind is more then able to do so." It was clear she was hurt by the thought that she was only to be pampered and not able to take care of herself.<br>

				&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">His face fell when he heard her tone, and the other two brothers looked up as well, at her explanation that she was stronger&nbsp; than all of them combined.&nbsp; Well, if that wasn't a kick in the gut.&nbsp; "What my brother was trying to say," Daric told her, "is that in our culture, females are a rare thing.&nbsp; Most of them usually die in childbirth, and therefore, because of our dwindling numbers, it is said that women are supposed to be treated with the utmost respect and care, and that they are to be taken care of and provided for, and given anything and everything possible to be made happy..."</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She blushed hard then and curled up, wrapping her arms around her knees. "I'm sorry. I grew up having to prove that I was able to defend myself...I get a bit testy about being pampered, I'm just not use to it. Please...forgive me, that was horrible manners to someone I care for." She was very embarrassed now.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"It's alright," Daric said, nodding at her.&nbsp; "It is forgiven my love.&nbsp; Just get your rest, and we shall have dinner made by the time you get up," he told her, pulling the covers over her and leaning down to press a cheek to her forehead.&nbsp; "Just get your strength back so there will be no more of these little outbursts, alright?" he asked&nbsp; her, lifting her chin so that she could look at his eyes as he nodded</span>.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She flushed with disappointment in herself and his words about outbursts didn't make her feel very good about herself. She wanted them to be happy with her, not disappointed. "Yes Daric" she murmured, relaxing into the couch.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Daric watched her as she settled into the couch. Coupled with her timid response, he wondered whether or not he had been too harsh with her.&nbsp; He decided against it, reasoning that he couldn't have her acting bratty, and that such behavior would not be tolerated amongst the rest of his brothers once he took her back with them.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Annibyn sighed turned her body into the couch, lettnig herself drift off into a slight nap until food was ready.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Contrary to what he'd made her believe, Daric had never left her side while she slept.&nbsp; He kept watch over her and stroked her hair slightly from time to time.&nbsp; Even though she had received a scolding, and a very mild one at that, he wanted her to know that he still loved her and that he was not going anywhere no matter what kind of temper tantrums she threw in the future.</span>

				The girl stirred slowly, yawning and blinking as she felt someone touch her hair, glancing up at Daric. Remembering why she had retreated to sleep she blushed again and lowered her eyes.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Hey...none of that," he told her gently.&nbsp; He again guided her face to look at his, as Aeric and Aleric came in and joined them.&nbsp; "I told you to expect this up front before we got involved, sweetheart," he told her.&nbsp; "And this was by no means as harsh as we can get," he told her gently.</span><br><br>She glanced up at him obediently and nodded at his words, agreeing without words. She didn't feel up to saying anything or have any idea what to say. But she ventured a simple "I'm sorry."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"There is nothing to be sorry for, sweetheart...We told you earlier that all was forgiven and we meant it.&nbsp; We just merely had to do something to ensure that you think twice before you let yourself get into such a state of rebellion again," Aleric told her, coming over and gathering her into his arms.</span><br><br>"I...I wasn't in rebellion, just...on guard. I really didn't mean to snap like that but I have worked hard to prove my worth." she sighed, wondering how to recoil a whole life time of being on guard and fighting everyone around her with letting others take care of her.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"And that is fine, my love.." Daric told her softly.&nbsp; "I know it will take some time to get used to, but we can be patient," he told her.</span><br><br>She nodded, reassured by it. "Okay, so you aren't angry at me then?" She asked softly, a touch afraid.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"No," all three men answered at the same time.</span><br><br>Anni laughed softly then, smiling weakly. "Well that's a reassuring chorus..." she bit down nervously on her lower lip, looking from one to the next. "I don't know if I can keep up with all of you physically..." she trailed off, even a sidhe princess had a limit to her sex drive.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"And do you honestly think we would be beyond giving our queen a respite, my love?" Aleric grinned.&nbsp; "We're warriors, not barbarians," he teased.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She laughed softly then and shook her head softly. "I do not think you are barbarians, you are princes and wonderful in my eyes." she smiled, tender and loving before tilting her head softly. "Two questions, one, food? And two..is there a way for all of you to hold me at once?" She trailed off, pondering it.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"One, food is in the kitchen," Aeric responded, "And two...I"m sure we can find a way.." Aleric murmured.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; The Princess smiled then and nuzzled closer into Aleric's arms. "Can I eat please?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"No...we're not going to let you eat...Because...we're barbaric..." Daric murmured,trying hard to keep a straight face as he looked at her.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She let out a bright laugh then, giggling hard and shaking her head at him. Then she decided to play along a bit and made a sad face, letting out a soft whimper. "But I haven't eaten in over twenty four hours."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"That's not my fault you chose to shower over eating, darling..." Aleric smirked.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She wrinkled her nose and made a soft noise of contention. "But its my morning routine, shower and then eat, I need to shower to wake up completely.."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"And I suppose having Daric in your shower only served to speed up this process?" he mused, teasingly.</span>

				At that she laughed. "He hardly even kissed me I'll have you know." She responded tartly.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Are you saying I'm losing my touch, sweetheart?" Daric chimed in.</span><br><br>She giggled and glanced at him. "No, I would never say that. But you didn't chose to do more, partly because you knew I was worn out."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Yes, it appears I did say that..." Daric mused.&nbsp; "Perhaps next time I'll ravish you on the bathroom counter and again on the shower floor.." he winked.</span><br><br>Annibyn flushed in surprise and then shivered at the thought. "Oh..um...that would be one way to wake up."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"I thought so," Daric said, smiling angelically at her.&nbsp; "Now..are you hungry?" Aeric ventured tentatively, not knowing how she would react to him in this situation yet.</span><br><br>Annibyn turned to look at Aeric and nodded, raising a hand to offer it to him. "Yes, thank you."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">He nodded and took her hand carefully, guiding her up.&nbsp; Leading her into the kitchen with his brothers following, he set her on a chair, and watched her as he put a filled plate of food down in front of her.&nbsp; "I hope you like it.." he said softly.</span><br><br>She smiled and clasped her hand around his, squeezing softly to let him know she wasn't afraid of his touch. She settled into the chair and watch the plate be filled before she glanced at the brothers, curious as she reached for a fork, remembering the breakfast the other day. "I feed myself?" she asked, just to be sure.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Nope..." Aeric said, winking at her. His eyes were a bit of a yellow around the edges, whereas his brothers were blue and green around the edges.&nbsp; "We have to perfect this whole barbarian act you know.." he grinned.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She giggled then, enjoying this playful side of him, noticing the yellow touch to his eyes as she set down the fork again. She tucked stray strands of hair behind her ear and smiled. "Well then, who's feeding me this time?"<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"We figured that we would each take turns," Daric said as each men went to the sink and properly washed their hands.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; "Oh...okay" she nodded then and let her hands set in her lap to wait patiently.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Unless you had a different idea, cara mia?" Aeric asked, letting the words of affection slip past his lips.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; At the foreign words she glanced up at him in surprise and smiled, shaking her head. "No, but thank you for the endearment."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"You understand Italian?" he asked her.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She smiled softly and nodded "A little bit, not much. I like learning and no one bothered me if I was in the libraries."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"So you understood what I said then?" he asked delighted with her.</span>"So you understood what I said then?" he asked delighted with her.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She nodded slowly, smiling shyly "Yes, I do, thank you again mon couer" she replied, though with a French endearment.<br><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font"><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; "You do not mean that," he told her nonchalantly as he lifted the first bite to her lips with his fingers.</span>

				She parted her lips and took the food from him, softly kissing his fingers. She finished off the food before speaking. "No, I do. You know of torment and pain like I do, you know of my heart as I yours..."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">He closed his eyes, the touch of her lips on his fingers entrancing him to feel things he hadn't before.&nbsp; When he opened his eyes again, he looked at her carefully and just nodded.</span><br><br>"I will never speak something that is not true or true for me. I would never do that to any of you and my people can't lie anyway." She said softly.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"I believe you," he said softly, watching her beautiful features with fascination.&nbsp; Gently, reaching out, he brushed his thumb across her smooth cheek.</span><br><br>She smiled at him, blushing softly at the look in his eyes. When his thumb touched against her skin she nuzzled the hand.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Affectionate little one, isn't she?" he asked, looking over at Daric and Aleric who nodded in response.</span><br><br>She blushed at the words and moved back to sit, looking at her lap. "Is that bad?"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"No, my love.." Aeric said, finally letting those words slip.</span><br><br>Annibyn flushed with pleasure then, glancing up to smile at all three of them. "I like being touched, it always makes me feel better, and this is the first time people just want to comfort me with no pain."

				&nbsp; &nbsp; "Well, get used to it," Aleric told her, reaching down to sweep his soft hands down her back.&nbsp; "It's just going to improve from here on out," he told her.&nbsp; "We're not going to hurt you, nor are we ever going to let anyone else hurt you if we have a say in things.."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; The girl let out a soft sound of pleasure when his hands moved down her back and she moved to curl her body slightly into him, nuzzling his chest. "I like that idea.." she murmured.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; "Good.." he chuckled, as Aeric settled down in front of her.&nbsp; Carefully, with his newly cleaned hands, he took a piece of potato with his fingers and held it to her lips.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Anni kept her body against Aleric's, she really just loved the sensation of being held, but opened her lips for Aeric with a smile. She took the food into her mouth, softly kissing his fingertips before she pulled back to eat the morsel.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; He smiled sweetly at her and settled back, looking at the plate.&nbsp; Carefully, he tore a piece of bread from the chunk, and dipped it in the gravy from the meat before holding that up to her lips as well.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She happily took the next bite, her coloring improving with the more she ate. It was clear her energy was coming back nicely now.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; "Someone seems to be doing better," Aeric teased her, holding the glass of wine to her cherry colored lips.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Annibyn parted her lips to take the wine into them, sipping at it carefully and nodded. "I don't need much food to sustain myself, but when I deplete energy stores its the best way to bring my energy back."<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; "Like normal humans," Daric said, chuckling at her comment.&nbsp; "Don't worry...We all have to eat at some point or another," he said to her.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp;

				She laughed then and shook her head. "Oh no, I just eat enough to restore the basic level, food doesn't do much for me after that, sex is what gives me back major power actually. Which meant that I had to use my power sparingly before since I didn't sleep with anyone."<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Sex..." Daric smirked roguishly, arching an eyebrow at her.&nbsp; "That is what every man wants to hear," he teased her, touching her cheek softly.</span><br><br>She giggled softly then and nuzzled the hand that touched her. "What? That their lover needs sex on a regular basis?"<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Hell yes," Aleric laughed.&nbsp; "That's like every man's dream come true," he grinned.&nbsp; Daric reached down and brushed his lips lovingly over hers before straightening up.</span><br><br>She smiled, happy to please them and when Daric brushed his lips over hers she tried to kiss back before her pulled away and stood up. She made a soft moue with her lips and muttered "Tease" laughter dancing in her eyes.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Damn straight, baby," he purred at her, with a wink.&nbsp; He smiled and settled back down at her side, looking at the others.&nbsp; "So, we're going to have to get the mating ceremony done when we get back," Aeric suggested.&nbsp; Daric nodded and thought about that.</span><br><br>She laughed at Daric and then smiled, happy to have them all around her, feeling safe. "Mating ceremony? Didn't you two do that last night?" She asked softly, lifting her hands to touch on the marks on her neck.<br><br><span style="font-family: comic sans;" class="bbc_font">"Umm...not really baby.." Aleric chuckled.&nbsp; "What my brother should have said, was wedding ceremony, for lack of a better word.&nbsp; Except it's a bit different how we do things in our culture," he explained.</span><br><br>"Wedding...oh..." she blinked at that and considered it. Married, her, she had never even thought of that. What about a dress? And, who would give her away? Certainly not her father, her father would kill her first if his own father wished it. As her mind turned her to family she sighed softly, withdrawing inward a bit.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Don't worry.." Daric said, reading hre mind.&nbsp; "You don't need your family present..It's more of a carving ceremony for lack of a better word," he told her.</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; "Carving?" Carving what? She got more and more confused as they spoke.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Your name, our backs..I can't fucking wait," Aleric growled, rolling his shoulders as if he was already feeling it on his skin</span><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; She started then, glancing from one brother to the next and then the next. "You are going to have my name carved into your skin?!" her eyes were wide with surprise and she trembled at the thought of anything cutting into her back, the scars from the nighthags still hadn't quiet faded yet.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Yes," Daric said.&nbsp; "It's tradition for us, and a way for us to have our honor amongst our brothers," he explained.&nbsp; "Don't panic, love.&nbsp; You look you're about to be ill.&nbsp; You do not get carved, only us.."</span>

				Annibyn managed a wan smile on her lips, her violet eyes still a touch stricken at the thought of anyone, especially them, getting their skin broken and bleeding for her. The sidhe shifted on her chair and it caused her long summer wheat hair to shift with her before she glanced at Daric again, somehow calmed by the words he spoke. "I...well if it makes you happy who am I to say nay to it?"<br><br>A soft laugh, a little force parted her lips and she nervously started to play with a strand of her silky hair with her fingers. "I just, blood sometimes makes me a little nervous..." she trailed off realizing that while that had once been true it hadn't been that way since the brother's had entered her home. They had helped heal up her back and then the shower...and she had let them feed from her not had one moment of apprehension, fear or illness from the blood. And then the girl did break down into laughter, shaking her head at herself as tears of mirth leaked from her eyes and the three men stared at her no doubt concerned.<br><br>Finally she got herself back under control, still giggling and clutching her ribs. "Sorry, just....I haven't had a problem with the scent or sight of blood with you guys around and my old phobia would be rather...ridiculous if I'm life bonded to vampires."

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Yes," Aeric said with a bemused expression on his face.&nbsp; "That would not be the most idealistic of situations," he told her.&nbsp; <br><br>"Though," Daric said, cutting in.&nbsp; "We're also quite used to not feeding from live specimens if you catch my meaning," he said.&nbsp; "We don't really believe in hurting another human being for our satiation and therefore get our nourishment most of the time from bagged blood," he told her, saying this as if it were the most natural thing in the world to be conversing about at the moment.<br><br>"So, most of the time, when we get back home, if we were to have blood around you, it would be in a bagged form," Aleric cut in.<br><br>"Thank you Captain Obvious..." Daric muttered under his breath.<br><br>"Can it, bitch," Aleric threw back, though one could easily tell that he was not at all serious about giving his brother an attitude.<br><br>"This is why they've been single for over 200 years," Aeric muttered, his expression completely amused now as he watched his brothers go back and forth.<br><br>"Like you haven't been, either..." Daric said, throwing a stress ball at Aeric.<br><br>"Details are a technicality," Aeric muttered.&nbsp; "Let's not bore Anni with them..."</span>

				The expressions on their faces nearly made her break down into giggles again but she managed to control herself at Aeric's rather smart ass reply, giving him a smile that was full of a laugh with mirth dancing in her eyes. He wasn't very scary standing in her kitchen and talking to her with a rather wry sense of humor. And he looked so like Aleric that she couldn't stay on her guard around him anyway. Annibyn glanced to Daric, tilting her head at his words as he spoke. <br><br>And then she did laugh again, a bright, free sound as the brother's picked on each other and teased. It felt so good to do this, to laugh with them in her kitchen, everyone gathered around and relaxed enough to joke, she had the feeling they didn't get to laugh very often, or relax. They would protect her yes, perhaps, but she would love them and teach them how to enjoy things. She had forgotten how to laugh before them and she wanted to repay that gift. <br><br>"Oh well....I don't mind...." she tried to speak up before Aeric's wise ass remark earned a snappy come back from Daric and a giggle from her lips. <br><br>"Well....none of you are single now." she volunteered, trying to be helpful. "And I really don't mind feeding you, though one at a time might be wise. I am fey so I recover fairly quickly as long as there's no cold metal or salt near me." She paused, realizing that she hadn't shared with them the things that could harm her. The princess flashed an apologetic smile. <br><br>"Oh, right, um. Magical weapons are pretty much all you have to worry about killing me instantly, bullets don't have much affect, even silver, its just cold iron, like steel and iron itself that would make it..painful. Salt gives me rashes that can get bad depending. But I'm pretty hard to kill compared to a mortal." She laughed again, wrinkling her nose playfully at the brothers "No don't bring iron to bed pretty please."<br><br>She paused, about to go on before realizing something and freezing as she gazed at them. "Wait....two hundred years?"

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"Well, there goes our plans with you and handcuffs," Aeric murmured, his face looking just a tad bit crestfallen as he pondered the way that his plans were now left out in the cold as he had been not too long ago.&nbsp; Oh well, he thought to himself.&nbsp; He could find other things to do with and to Annibyn that they would both find rather enjoyable, or so he hoped.&nbsp; It would be quite enjoyable spending eternity with her indeed.&nbsp; He was sure that there would be little dull moments around the four of them.<br><br>Aleric's face now took on the most bemused expression out of the two other expressions that his brothers wore when she realized that they had said that they were over 200 years old.&nbsp; "Well, yes," he murmured, looking at her curiously.&nbsp; "We're actually considered to be quite young for our age," he explained.&nbsp; "Our uncle Lucien is over 800 years old," he told her.&nbsp; "And even then, that's not overly old," he told her.&nbsp; "It would be about the equivalent of midlife in human terms," he told her.<br><br>"Don't you dare say the "L" word," Daric muttered, looking around.&nbsp; "The next thing you know, he's going to be dematerializing here, and that's the last thing we need.&nbsp; To draw attention to ourselves and Anni..."<br><br>"You know as well as I do that no one can track us.&nbsp; So even if he does come here, it won't be a problem.&nbsp; You just don't want Uncle Lucien to come here because you know the minute that he does, he's going to start listing off the many ways in which you've disappointed him and this race over the past two centuries," he explained.<br><br>"That's not my problem!" Daric said rather defensively.&nbsp; "If he wants to get his hopes and dreams to come true, he should bestow that task upon Lucerne, not me.&nbsp; Lucerne's his god-damn son, and yet he chooses to place the weight of the world upon me..."<br><br>"If I had chosen to place the weight of the world upon your shoulders as you so nicely claimed, then we'd all be in a black hole by now," a raspy voice said in a dry tone.&nbsp; A foot or two where Daric stood, a figure took shape.&nbsp; The man was tall, with dark hair.&nbsp; His build was muscular, matching Aeric, Daric and Aleric, and giving away his status as another warrior.&nbsp; He had the same metallic, diamond sheen to his eyes like theirs as well, and his dark hair was only a shade lighter, though cut in a cropped still close to his scalp.&nbsp; Worry lines etched over his face, the creases seeming to disappear and reappear with each new movement across his cheekbones.<br><br>"Mommy..." Daric squeaked, hearing his uncle's voice behind him.&nbsp; In his fright, he immediately dematerialized leaving a blank spot where he was standing.&nbsp; <br><br>"Amateur," Aeric muttered under his breath, causing the newcomer to arch an eyebrow in his direction.&nbsp; <br><br>"Uncle Lucien!" Aleric said, picking up the slack where his brothers had left off.&nbsp; <br><br>"What did I tell you about calling me uncle, boy?"&nbsp; Lucien's voice was pure gravel with hints of seduction seeping through.<br><br>"I see that Danielle is keeping you very happy and in good spirits," Daric murmured as he reappeared next to his uncle.<br><br>"That woman," Lucien growled.&nbsp; "I curse whatever gods found it fit to hitch me with that stubborn wench..."&nbsp; Still, as he said the words, a softer look came over his face, and reached his eyes.&nbsp; It was true, his lifemate had tamed him, completing him mind, body and soul.&nbsp; She was his other half, and while he tended to drive her crazy from time to time, he knew that he could never picture his life without her.<br><br>"Let's hope that Luc hasn't attained your affections towards Lisette now that he's mated," Aeric said, looking at his uncle.</span>

				The princess chuckled again at the mention of handcuffs, half tempted to reply that she could handle the plastic ones or furlined, after all just because no one had ever touched her before now didn't mean she hadn't thought about sex and being with a man. There was quiet a collection of steamy romance novels in her 'office' room, the room that held her bookshelves and computer and such. But the men were far more entertaining so she stayed happily quiet and just watched and listened to them. <br><br>Aleric's expression was one she had to bite her lower lip to keep from laughing at again, her eyes violet eyes dancing with laughter even as he told her that they were over two hundred. The information about their race was welcome though, the truly were immortal just like the sidhe then and she didn't ever have to worry about spending eternity alone again. Her heart clenched with delight at the idea, at the fact of the three of them here, around her. <br><br>The way they talked about their uncle had her nearly breaking down into laughter again and Annibyn wondered if half of this was just to keep her laughing and at ease. Their Uncle sounded quiet interesting, though she did want to know why all the weight of the 'world' would be placed on Daric's shoulders, still it was hard to think how to form the questions and not be too pushy or nosy. She wanted the brother's to stay at ease around her, not to think she was going to pry into every secret they might ever have, after all she was a private enough person herself. <br><br>The sudden intrusion of a new voice had her stiffening completely on her stool, her breath caught in her heart as she tried to not go to the automatic defense and blast out with her power or run and hide. Since her powers were still low from burning them up so much earlier the magical blast wasn't going to happen but she still eyed the new comer warily as Daric vanished. "Da..." she trailed off even as her lover reappeared and she shifted nervously on her stool, the man clearly someone they knew well, their Uncle. <br><br>Still he was clearly a warrior and a old and experienced one, Anni found her heart skipping beat with nerves, seeing a man like him made her think of the Court, of the men who had tried to kill her so often throughout her life. But he wouldn't hurt her, Aleric and Daric wouldn't allow it, Aeric she wasn't so sure of just yet but she doubted he would with her promise of giving him touch and physical comfort as far as the other two were okay with. <br><br>"Stubborn wench?" A voice all but purred through the air, this one female and making Annibyn jerk her gaze to the open door of her patio that held a view of the beach from the kitchen. It was a woman, apparently only twenty five or so at the most but she sensed she was much older then that, with skin like ivory and hair of a coppery amber. Her pale eyes were flashing with irritation and lips thinned as she crossed her arms over her breasts, an eye brow arched that could rival Lucien's own gesture moments before. <br><br>The woman glanced at the brothers around the princess and gave them a slight smile. "Don't you worry, I make sure Luc treats sweet Lisette right, though perhaps its my own bondmate I should be worried about.." her gaze swung back to Lucien and the blond realized that meant she had to be Danielle that had been mentioned just moments ago. So many new people in such a short time, she shifted again, nervous, half afraid and reached for the brothers' minds for reassurance.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Aeric sensed Anni's distress as she reached out to him and let his hand shoot out, wrapping around her waist, tugging her back against his front.&nbsp; "It's alright, <em>cheri,</em>" he murmured.&nbsp; "There's nothing to be worried about that.&nbsp; That is just our aunt and uncle," he told her.&nbsp; "Charming people that they are," he said.<br><br>"Absolutely a joy..." Aleric confirmed, looking at their aunt and uncle, though the tone that he used was rather dry and sardonic at best.<br><br>"God god, woman!" Lucien muttered with a roll of his eyes, throwing his hands up in the air.&nbsp; "What part of staying put don't you understand??" he asked, his voice betraying his exasperation.&nbsp; "I swear to whatever's holy out there, that the next time, I'm handcuffing you to our bed..."<br><br>"That sounds kinky," Daric mused, making a mental note to try the same things out on Anni later on.<br><br>"If there's one thing that a man shouldn't hear, it's the sexual escapades of his overly old parents," a new voice said, coming from the doorway just as the wooden slab was pushed forward. He was a blonde god in a human body.&nbsp; Six foot six inches of muscle stood packed into a pair of black slacks and a crisp white dress shirt.&nbsp; Blue eyes, the color of sapphires gazed around the room, taking in their surroundings.<br><br>"How the hell did you get in here?" Aeric demanded at once, and his uncle shot him a warning glance to calm down with his little show of temper.<br><br>"I picked the lock," Lucerne said, his tone suggesting that the answer should've been more than obvious to Aeric.&nbsp; He raised his hand and pointed to his forehead and winked.&nbsp; "It was too easy," he laughed.<br><br>"Wait a minute," Aleric said, cutting through the air.&nbsp; "How come Luc gets to call you old and you chastise me when I call you uncle?" he asked, wheeling around to face Lucien.<br><br>"Because, if I hurt my precious son," he said, saying the word precious with an exaggerated flourish, "I'm sure his mother, who he no doubt takes after in the irritation category, would stake me through the heart and leave me out in the sun to rot for all eternity..."<br><br>"Yep, that sounds like mom," Lucerne said, grinning as he bent his head to deposit a kiss on his mother's cheek.&nbsp; "She would do anything to protect her favorite son..." the younger vampire said, absolutely beaming at his mother.<br><br>"You know," a new voice cut in.&nbsp; "It almost saddens me to pull you from your delusions."&nbsp; Another man, this one bearing a slight resemblance to both Danielle and Lucien emerged from the shadows in the entryway. "It's obvious that I'm mom's favorite," he said, looking at his brother with a look that suggested Lucerne try and challenge his words.&nbsp; The harsh planes of the man's face, along with his angled, superbly defined jawline did nothing to match the light of his eyes and the smile he had plastered on his face.&nbsp; Dark hair styled in a spiked way gave away that he had taken after his mother.<br><br>"I swear to god, Etienne," Luc muttered.&nbsp; "Your ego is the size of your head..."&nbsp; This just served to earn a self-satisfied look from the dark-haired man.<br><br>"And who is this lovely creature?" Etienne asked, his gaze now fixated on Anni.&nbsp; Slowly, he approached Anni and smiled.&nbsp; He reached out, taking her hand in his.&nbsp; He brought it to his lips, pressing the most softest of kisses there.&nbsp; "Well don't you just look good enough to eat," he murmured.&nbsp; "I'm sure I could make a great after dinner snack out of you," he teased, winking.&nbsp; When he smiled, his two fangs glimmered in the light.<br><br>Suddenly, he gasped as he felt something stab him from the side.&nbsp; Looking down, he saw the blood spreading to the front of his dark blue dress shirt.&nbsp; Looking up, he saw the culprit.&nbsp; Daric.&nbsp; "You stabbed me," he said, his tone more than amused.<br><br>"Just be thankful I didn't decide to bite your god-damned head off.." Daric growled, taking Anni back into his arms.<br><br>"I knew that this day would come at some point," a new voice cut in.&nbsp; This one was just as deep, seductive and smooth as the rest of the voices had been. "So...now you're saying that you're familiar with having big things in your mouth?&nbsp; Is there something you wish to tell us dear cousin?"&nbsp; Bastien Durand's form dematerialized in the center of the room, a genuine smile on his face as he took in both Daric's words and the knife sticking out of his brother's back.<br><br>"It would explain why he's been without a woman for the past two hundred years..." Aeric mused.<br><br>"Shut up before I stab you too!"&nbsp; Daric's voice was sounding a tad bit desperate now as he spoke.&nbsp; He didn't like having attention on him, though he knew how to dish it out just as bad.<br><br>"Such dramatics..."&nbsp; Bastien murmured as he reached over, pulling the knife out of Etienne's back.&nbsp; "Do you intend to go and kiss Annibyn with a mouth so filthy?" he asked, looking at Daric.&nbsp; Turning his attention away from his cousin, he looked at Annibyn.&nbsp; "Bastien Durand," he said, his smile charming, though he skipped out on the cheesy pickup lines that Etienne had used.<br></span>

				A hand was tugging on her, pulling her into Aeric's body and she went willingly enough, wondering how he knew that touch would comfort her. She pressed up against him, feeling his larger, stronger form surround her own body and released a sigh and a heavy breath, her stress attack abated for the moment with his touch and his whispered endearment as her shields. She tilted her head back to give him a shy smile in thanks, not venturing much in the way of words for the moment, a touch overwhelmed even still. To go from having utter solitude for three years to suddenly having three people around had been manageable but the appearance of two new people made things harder, and it seemed liked the party wasn't going to stop there. <br><br>If she wasn't so nervous she likely would have laughed at the way that the 'family' interacted with each other, deep inside part of her was envious, she had never been so at ease with any of her family members save her mother and perhaps her cousin Maryse but she had hardly ever been able to see them thanks to her 'membership' of the Seelie Court. <br><br>Princesses were suppose to have grace and be able to handle any social situation they were placed in. Annibyn clammed up and had to fight off stress attacks, her magic flickering under her skin like a nervous thing half expecting someone to try and kill her. She was as strung out as a cat dangling over water and afraid that the brothers would sense it and be disappointed in her. <em>Come on Anni, you can do better..</em> she tried to tell herself. <br><br>Another man stepped into her small house, it was a modest beach bungalow really, four bedrooms, large living room and a den and then a spacious kitchen. It had been big, or seemed so before all the people started showing up. Breathe, breathe, she kept telling herself. <br><br>Her eyes tracked the newcomer, Lucern apparently, as he dropped a kiss on Danielle's cheek. The woman smiled at her sun, eyes dancing with laughter though her expression didn't ease up in regards to her mate, apparently she wasn't going to forget and forgive that little comment. The blond's breath stopped when another turned up, this one taller, darker then Lucerne but she managed to push through it and found a smile touching her lips at the way they all teased each other so mercilessly. Then the new man, Etienne turned his attention on her and a blush fired on her cheeks as she pressed further into Aeric, as if she could vanish into him. <br><br>Annibyn's heart was racing as the man kissed her hand and she tried to smile, violet eyes wide in her face. His tease about eating her earned a widening of her eyes, alarmed because Daric and Aleric had said that no one else would drink of her. And then Daric, he was protecting her, or perhaps showing off, she didn't know but at least he distracted attention from her. Not that stabbing Etienne appeared to hurt him and when Daric took her she curled into his arms happily enough, hiding her face against his chest partly. Another man, another, how many now? She struggled to count and came up with four, she thought, plus Danielle. Lucien, Lucern, Etienne, and the newest man. <br><br>The smile of the last one though, simple and charming made her smile as well and she relaxed from her overly tense self to incline her head. "I'm Annibyn..." she offered, and then laughed softly. "But then apparently you already know that."<br><br>Danielle made a tisking noise then, shaking her head at her helpless hoard of males, knowing that they were clearly over powering a girl not use to so many rowdy men. She wove her way right through the thick of them, her mate, her sons, her nephews and drew the girl away from Daric's protective hold, shaking her head even as she rolled her eyes. "Forgive the men love, they are always like this, now lets take you to the backroom and just you and me, we'll chat and I'll explain the Durand clan." <br><br>She glared at the males even as she tugged the blond sidhe down the hall with her. "You all find something outside of stabbing yourself to do, the lass and I need a few moments for lady time."<br><br>Annibyn was nearly pathetically glad to follow the vampire woman, at least she thought she was a vampire like the rest, down the hall from the kitchen to her large bedroom, the door shutting behind them to close off the rest of the world. She trembled and then sighed, closing her eyes and rubbing her temples, speaking with bitterness. "You would never guess that I was a princess would you? But there it is, totally unsatisfactory in everyway, even social graces..."<br><br>Danielle was there suddenly, tugging her hands down and smiling. "Shush love, you are just shy and haven't been around people much, your house says that much to any woman. Now lets find get you a bath to wash that sand out of your hair and get you in some new clothing, you'll feel right as rain and ready to meet that hoard again." Annibyn laughed then, softly, liking the older woman a lot already and obeyed her, following Danielle into her bathroom and wondering what the men were up to.

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">"You haven't killed her!" Lucien barked, once Danielle and Annibyn were far, far away from hearing distance with the men.<br><br>"And you're very perceptive in your old age," Lucerne murmured to his father.&nbsp; As he said that, his cellphone went off.&nbsp; "Excuse me gentlemen," he murmured, seeing the name flashing across the screen.&nbsp; <em>Lisette.</em>&nbsp; "There is a certain angel who needs my attention," he murmured, before flipping open the phone and walking away.&nbsp; "Baby..." he purred through the line.<br><br>"Okay, well...that's the last we'll see of him for tonight," Bastien said, smirking as he watched his brother wander off to one of the back rooms to talk to his wife.<br><br>"I'm surprised that he actually dragged himself out of bed to come here," Lucien mused.&nbsp; "Lifemates are usually insatiable for centuries after getting together."<br><br>"Speaking of lifemates," Aeric mused.&nbsp; "I want mine.&nbsp; Is aunt Danielle done with her yet?" he said, starting to walk off.&nbsp; "I think I'll just go help her finish her bath..."<br><br>"Aeric...a word with you please..." Lucien murmured, clearing his throat.&nbsp; He turned, looking at his two sons.&nbsp; "You two make yourself scarce for a few moments...."<br><br>"I'm going to find myself something to eat," Bastien said, wandering off in the direction of the kitchen.<br><br>"I'm going to myself a Lucerne to torment," Etienne murmured, walking up the stairs to find his brother.&nbsp; <br><br>"You two stay," Lucien said, glancing at Aleric and Daric.&nbsp; Turning back to Aeric, he spoke.&nbsp; "I'm surprised you're able to separate from your brother's body, and to take form like this.&nbsp; You've been able to be on your own for quite some time here," he mused.&nbsp; "No doubt Annibyn is the cause of all that, but I want to know how...."&nbsp; When met with Aeric's blank look, he sighed.&nbsp; "I didn't think you'd know either..."<br><br>"I'm not sure what is happening here, but until we figure it out, I want you to be careful.&nbsp; Try and control your temper as best as you can and don't do anything stupid that will result in you getting trapped in your brother's body again..."&nbsp; He sighed and scrubbed a hand over his worried face.&nbsp; "Now that we're done with that issue, we have another.&nbsp; You know we were hired by the girl's father to kill her..." he said, revealing that this was their true purpose for finding Anni in the first place.&nbsp; "But, since that is not going to be happening, we're going to have to figure out a way to tell him this and not let him know that it is because she's your life mate.&nbsp; If he finds that out, he'll come after all of us..."<br><br>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br><br>Lucerne walked up the stairs, and went down the hallway of rooms.&nbsp; Finding the first empty one that he could, he went inside, closing the door behind him.&nbsp; Neglecting to lock it, he sat down on the edge of the bed, and held the phone to his ear once more.<br><br>"Luc...when are you coming home?"&nbsp; Lisette's breathy voice came from the other end, letting him know that she was still flustered from their activities from earlier.<br><br>That reaction and the image that presented itself in his mind of his wife had his breath hitching in his throat.&nbsp; Closing his eyes, he let himself focus in on her voice and nothing else.&nbsp; "Not soon enough, baby..." he murmured, his voice low.<br><br>His answer was met with Lisette's mewling sigh, a sign that she was clearly pouting at his words, followed by the rustling of sheets on the bed.&nbsp; Their bed. "But...Luc I need you. Can't you just leave your father and brother's to handle it?"<br><br>Luc let out an audible groan as he heard the yearning in her voice.&nbsp; Damn if he didn't want to just dematerialize out of here and go to his wife, with nothing more than the intent of making sweet, slow love to her.&nbsp; Again.&nbsp; "I know, my sweet... I need you too..."&nbsp; &nbsp;The words came out as hiss as images come to his mind revolving around the plans he was considering, about leaving here and heading home.&nbsp; It was enough to distract him from the original conversation entirely.&nbsp; "What are you wearing Lisette?"&nbsp; He had to know.&nbsp; He had to know what she was wearing, so that the fantasy going on in his head would be complete.<br><br>Another sigh came from Lisette's end and he could picture her plump, red lips moving as they made that sound.&nbsp; Lips that he wanted to kiss and nibble on.&nbsp; The bedsheets rustled again, and he could picture her delicate little body wrapped up in all that black satin.&nbsp; A very naked, delicate body that he wanted to ravage with his lips, teeth and tongue.&nbsp; He could hear his heart thumping as he waited for her answer.&nbsp; "Just that sheer cream babydoll you like so much..."<br><br>Holy mother of fuck. This woman was going to be the death of him, and Luc was now starting to realize that.&nbsp; "Give me twenty minutes tops, baby...If I'm not back, you're welcome to come find me.."<br><br>Lisette couldn't help but giggle at the urgency in her husband's voice as he contemplated his options.&nbsp; "But Luc...I can't dematerialize like you can. I guess I'll just have to fly by myself..."<br><br>Damnit, he thought as another string of expletives came out of his mouth.&nbsp; "Take Garrett and Torin with you.&nbsp; I don't want you out there by yourself.&nbsp; They know where we are..."&nbsp; He didn't like the idea of her being out by herself in her true form.&nbsp; He didn't like not being there to protect her himself, but he knew his two cousins would guard her with their lives and keep her safe during her flight.<br><br>Lucern heard the sigh coming from her on the other end and smiled as he thought about ravaging the pout off of her face with his tongue. He waited quietly for her to agree, knowing that she wasn't fooling anyone by taking her time and trying to delay the inevitable.&nbsp; "Fine but I'm only putting on a trenchcoat..."&nbsp; She tried her best to make the statement sound like it was the worst chore in the world, but only half-succeeded.<br><br>"You little minx..." Lucern chuckled, catching on to her little game already.&nbsp; "Twenty minutes, baby.....I'm counting..."<br><br>It was now Lisette's turn to let out a stream of bubbly laughter as she heard her husband's words.&nbsp; "I learned from you mister, I was a pure as the driven snow before you. Twenty minutes," she murmured, getting out of bed and slipping on the aforementioned trench coat.<br><br>"And I'm the Pope Lisette....Really," Etienne murmured.&nbsp; He had snuck up on his cousin after hearing Lucerne so engrossed in the conversation he was having with his wife.&nbsp; He took the opportunity to find some way to mess with the happy couple, and could only laugh when he heard Lisette's reply through the phone.<br><br>"Etienne youa re so mean....I'll set you up with a nice girl you just see..."<br><br>The man in question arched an eyebrow and looked at the phone.&nbsp; "Is she a stripper?" he asked, perking up a bit at the prospect of such, though the giggle that came from Lisette when he asked the question made him aware of the answer before she spoke.<br><br>"No, she's the brigthests, purest, more proper angel of the heavens."&nbsp; Etienne sighed and scrubbed a hand over his face, thinking quickly of his comeback.&nbsp; <br><br>"Funny, Lis...Luc uses those same words to describe you, and the last time I checked, my brother didn't share..."<br><br>When Lisette started gushing and telling Luc that she loved him, Etienne knew that it was his cue to exit, lest he risk getting sick from all the mushiness.<br><br></span>

				A bath had done wonders for her, helping her body to relax even as she listened to Danielle bustle around her room, going through her closet and making approving sounds. She hadn't lingered though, climbing out and wrapping a towel around herself before going out into her large bedroom to catch the vampire woman laying out clothing on the bed. Danielle glanced up as she entered with a smile on her lips.<br><br>"You have wonderful taste love, now come here will you, I'll do something with your hair." Annibyn smiled and sank down to sit on the vanity stool even as Danielle produced a thing of bobbypins from now where. "You really are a gorgeous girl, those boys got very lucky I think...what are you exactly again?"<br><br>"Oh...sidhe, a royal fey." The woman nodded, her fingers working through the princess's hair humming softly under her breath. <br><br>"That is immortal right?" Anni nodded and the vampire relaxed visibly. "Oh good, no worries about tragedy then."<br><br>Annibyn stayed quiet for a moment longer, though curiosity filled her but finally the girl couldn't stand it any further. "Danielle...may I ask you about them?"<br><br>"Of course love, that's what this girl time is for, outside of making you feel more at ease. Go ahead and ask away."<br><br>Relief filled her and she ventured the first of her questions. "They said they were princes, that they would be King, how does that work exactly? Will I be excepted even though I'm not...your kind." Her words here were soft, trying to tiptoe around the subject. After the fact that she was 'other' had been the plague of her life. <br><br>"They are princes, son of the last King, though he was still part of the Council of Elders, a Council that for the moment my husband heads, at least till the boys decide to settle down. Their father was killed during the French Revolution, ghastly thing that. And yes, of course you will be excepted, What sort of nonsense would that be? My son Lucern's mate is a angel."<br><br>"An angel?"<br><br>"Mmhm, now hold still dear..."<br><br>Annibyn obeyed, a little more at ease, more questions on her lips but suddenly the balcony door swung open and a delicate looking redhead strolled in. The sidhe blinked in surprise as the woman came closer, a pure white feather caught in her hair and then suddenly the dainty female was right in her face, bending over to look at her closely. "So you are what all the fuss is about. You know Luc left our bed to come see you and his brothers..." a pout started in that voice and Anni's cheeks flared with a furious blush. <br><br>"I ..uh....sorry..."<br><br>"Shsh, Lisette, give the poor child a break. You have one male, she's to have three." <br><br>That drew the angel up. "Three? You mean..."<br><br>"Yes Aeric is out."<br><br>"Oh." The redhead looked back at her and offered a smile, her pale blue eyes all but glowing. "Well good luck with them, it will be nice to have another girl around, but now I must find my husband."<br><br>And with that the girl was out of the bedroom and down the hall, singing out "Lucern!!"<br><br>Annibyn stayed frozen for a moment more before laughing softly. "I think...I just got welcomed to the oddest family..."<br><br>Danielle smiled and tugged her up. "That you did, now lets get you dressed and back out to the boys, they'll behave more, trust me Luc's brother's won't be able to resist picking on him with Lis around and that will give you some leeway."<br><br>Danielle left her dress and the sidhe quickly pulled on her pale violet bra and panties, in shades to go with her hair and then another one of her dresses, for she preferred dresses to jeans or pants. This one was rather fourties inspired, with a little slip of a violet shirt beneath it, lace edged and small puff sleeves, a belt of deep plum wrapping around her ribs just below her ribs, giving her a high waist. The dress itself was white, with full skirts and plum petticoats beneath it. She tugged on a pair of plum flats and glanced in the mirror, Danielle had pinned her hair up off her face and she felt very classy and in control. The vampire lady knew what she was about. <br><br>~*~*~*~*~<br><br>Lisette wandered through the house, half wanting to pout that she hadn't found Luc yet. She hadn't been overly happy that he had left their bed to go looking after the twins, or rather triplets, but it made sense, sort of now. A new female was a big thing. Annibyn seemed nice enough, but still, she wanted her husband. The redhead smoothed over the coffee colored trenchcoat that was all that protected her from eyes seeing the little sheer babydoll that drove Luc so crazy all that time and her dainty feet had elegant three inch golden heels on them, another touch Lucern seemed to like. <br><br>"Luc! Where are you? Its two minutes till the deadline...."<br><br>~*~*~*~*~<br><br>Danielle appeared next to her husband with a slight smile on her lips, shaking her head at the boys. "You three somehow got blessed with a very nice, sweet girl. Make sure you don't mess it up. And Lucien, play nice, the child is half scared of her own shadow, which I guess has something to do with that family of her's."

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">Lucerne could smell the scent of his wife the moment she had entered the house.&nbsp; He had found himself an empty room in Annibyn's house and had unbuttoned his shirt and made himself comfortable on the bed to await Lisette's arrival.&nbsp; His lips turned into an upwards smile as he tracked her movements through the house, following the scent of her as it drew nearer and nearer to the room that he was in.&nbsp; He knew that she wouldn't be late, and in fact was not surprised to find that she still had quite a few minutes to go before her deadline was up.&nbsp; <br><br>Glancing down at his body, he chuckled as he saw the tent in the front of his jeans that his wife had caused.&nbsp; She didn't even have to be around him physically to arouse him.&nbsp; Just the thought of her could do that without any trouble.&nbsp; It was something that he was used to, and rightfully so since it would continue on for centuries to come between Lisette and himself.&nbsp; The thirst between lifemates to satisfy themselves on each others' bodies was insatiable and didn't start becoming quenched until after a century and a half passed, if that soon.&nbsp; <br><br>His fangs dropped down from the top of his mouth, and he closed his eyes, inhaling deeply, the scent of her too strong in his nose right now.&nbsp; &nbsp;By his guess, she was right outside the door.&nbsp; Turning towards it, he willed it open with his mind, looking out into the hallway.&nbsp; "Baby..." he murmured, only his blue eyes moving to look at the door, darkening to a deep, almost midnight blue as they sought out the object of Lucerne's desires.</span>

				He was close, oh so close she could nearly feel her body humming for the man that had driven her beyond all reason. Even being here right now was a risk to her life, to her powers and her mother certainly wouldn't approve. One thing was certain, Lisette could never go back to being a divine judge, after all they were suppose to be chaste; with Luc that hadn't lasted long. <br><br>Her husband. <br><br>The nymph twirled a silky strand of her hair around one finger as she paused outside a door, hearing the voice of her mate and a smile spreading on her sweetly perfect features. "Oh Luc..." she all but purred back at him, slipping into the room with her pale blue eyes all but glowing at the sight of him. She drank in the vision he presented, all masculine power laid out to relax on the bed, his shirt open and undone, showing flashed of the body that even Adonis would be jealous of. She would know, she had grown up around gods after all and her love was better then them all, especially with his eyes so dark and intense. <br><br>The door shut behind her, her smile quirking, minxish as she undid the buttons of her coat, untying the sash to let it gape open and reveal the cream colored little babydoll that was one of his favorite things on her. It helped that it was sheer, she thought, showing off her sweet curves, her lithe body. She shrugged out of the coat, letting it fall to the ground and walked toward the bed, swaying on her heels only to stumble the last step of two and end up crashing into him with a breathless laugh. "I'm still getting use to these shoes..." she murmured, inhaling his scent with a delighted sigh. <br><br>"How are you so perfect?"

				The nymph shivered happily at the sound that was summoned from him with her klutzy move, suddenly thanking the heels she was still learning to walk in for him for their aid in it. His eyes were so dark it made her heart race and the way he spoke only made her body flush with a hot wet heat that had her biting her lower lip, eyes glazing over slightly with passion and need. He did it to her so easily, which really was rather incredible seeing as she had never had so much as a erotic thought before him. She happily shifted over him, straddling his lap and her breath catching in a tell tell sound of delight as his hands found her sweetly curved ass and squeezed. <br><br>It made a pulse go through her body and she shifted in his hands, aching for him, smiling at his praise, always she would be her Lucerne's good girl. She pressed herself against him, the thin material of her babydoll suddenly annoying as she wanted to feel his skin against hers, craving that intimate contact. His question made her blink, trying to clear her head of the sexual haze she seemed to sink into before she let out a sweet little whimper as his fingers teased at her slick folds. <br><br>"Oh....Luc...you tease." she gave a breathless laugh, her big blue eyes fixed on him and adoring, pleading. "I need you so badly beloved....can't you feel it?" she squirmed her hips into his fingers, making it very apparent just how slick and ready she was for him. "Less clothing...please..?"

				He kissed her and she forgot to think, to breath, melting into him with a soft sweet whimper. She was always surprised how pliant she was when he touched her, and she could only match his dance as his tongue plundered her mouth, giving to him all that she was and shivering as he spread the flames of passion through her body until she could have sworn she was burning in truth. When he broke the kiss she inhaled raggedly, shivering at his words. <br><br>Lisette offered no opposition as he moved her, as his fangs ripped through her babydoll and ruined the thin garment. She did quake, knowing the primal power that her lover held, that her husband could do as he liked to her and even though she was a nymph, immortal and powerful in her own way, there was nothing she could do to stop him. It made something inside her bow, give way, making her feel utterly feminine and completely loved. Her throat worked as he pushed apart the ruined garment, her eyes glazing over with passion even as she gasped softly for him as his finger found the tender pearl of her clit.<br><br>He moved over it, teasing, so slow and sure and she quaked again, lightning arching through her blood as she withered or it and moaned out her pleasure. Her body moved with his guidance, down, offering up her breasts to his face and sure enough his lips closed over one peaked nipple. She cried out then, breathless and a sweet high sound as she arched into his mouth, the teeth of his fangs and tongue making her quiver for him and squirm herself into his hand all the more. "Oh...Luc!"

				She had never thought she would get so turned on by being manhandled by a man, but the way that Lucerne handled her body made her feel completely delicate and loved and at his control, something that she loved. She squirmed in his arms, eager and aching for him as he pinned her body against his, quiet aware of how easily he held her to him. The sound of his growl made her body dampen further, nearly leaking with desire as she whimpered at the look in his eyes. "Lu...c...." her voice breathed his name with all the adoring worship of a prayer.<br><br>"What I want?" she echoed back, trying to remember how to breath as he pinned her body beneath his, the masculine line of his muscular form poised over hers and making her want to run her hands down it, to worship his form with her hands. She would never tire of him. Her lips parted with a cry of delight as his mouth tasted at her taunt nipples once more, though she had enough thought to keep quiet enough that no one would over hear them. The feel of his heavy erection against her thigh made her want to rip his clothing off. She had never thought she could ache for someone so badly.<br><br>Her hips lifted, pressing herself against his body, wanting him, needing him and she all too readily wrapped her slender legs around his waist and pressed their groins together, shivering as she felt him hard through his jeans and the thin fabric of her thong. Lisette met his dark eyes with her own bright ones, clinging to them, knowing their love was burning out inside them as it always seemed to and she arched her neck, rocking her hips into his even as his fangs sank into her flesh and she cried out with pleasure, withering beneath him. "You....now...Luc I need you inside me...." she pleaded, gasping for air, for words.<br><br>

				<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;" class="bbc_font">She was so sweet and innocent, and Lucerne loved that about her.&nbsp; Looking at her right now, he didn't think he had ever seen such a perfect woman in every sense of the word.&nbsp; She deserved only the best that he could offer, with everything.&nbsp; When he had taken her as a lifemate, he had wanted to make sure that they would have enough time so that he would be able to worship and enjoy her body, giving her all that she wanted and more for the rest of eternity.&nbsp; She had made him feel alive again after more than three centuries of not living.<br><br>"Touch me," he said, his voice ragged, as the request slipped out of his mouth, his head lifting from her neck. "I want to feel your hands all over me," he told her, his eyes burning into hers with a desire that he had never felt before.&nbsp; He ground his hips against hers, pressing into her core, the heat being felt through the material of her pants.&nbsp; He groaned out, his erection wanting to be free and inside of her, not straining against his boxers and slacks.&nbsp; God, he wanted nothing more than to lay her back right here on this bed and feel her taking all of him, her tightness wrapped around his hard arousal.<br><br>Parting her legs, he smoothed his hands down the insides of her thighs.&nbsp; Stopping at the juncture between them, he let his index finger run down her slit, through her panties, as he watched her reaction to his ministrations.&nbsp; Lowering his head, his tongue snaked out of his mouth, and ran up the same path that his finger had just traveled.&nbsp; His fangs followed suit, down back again, licking her through the thin scrap of material that covered her sex from him.<br><br>Fisting a handful of her bright hair with his free hand, he tugged gently, causing her head to arch up for him, and his mouth found hers in a kiss that was far from gentle.&nbsp; Unlike his other ones, this kiss was firm, and demanding, staking claim on the female that he knew was his. His tongue thrust inside her mouth, and without warning, wrapped around hers, sucking on it.&nbsp; "Mine," he growled against her mouth, his eyes feral, indicating his possessiveness as he looked at her.</span>

				He touched her, he spoke to her and she surrendered, obeyed without a second thought. She who had always thought through everything, had weighed the good and bad of every choice, who had always been so painstakingly careful about everything. More then once she had been put in the position to end or save a life, to be the last saving grace, and the duty had weighed on her until she got lost in her position, her duty. Now...now she was only Lisette, only his. <br><br>He told her to touch him and she did, her hands slipping over his shoulders, caressing, feeling, drinking in the sensation of touching the warrior that had claimed her as his own. She teased her nails against his back, letting him know just how much she adored him even as the pleasure from his bite throbbed through her and left her quivering. The look in his eyes made her heart stop and she moaned breathlessly when he ground into her, Luc always knew just how to touch her, how to inflame her. The nymph could feel her whole body clenching and releasing, aching to feel him inside her body. Her legs parted with his touch, eager to give to any direction he supplied, her bright eyes glazing over with passion as she watched him, waiting for more orders.<br><br>When his finger teased at her slit through the sheer fabric of her panties though she hissed out her breath, her kiss swollen lips falling open even as her lashes fluttered, cheeks flushed and her hips rocked into his touch. And then his mouth, oh sweet heavens, his mouth followed the bath, teasing at her swollen aroused sex through the thin material and she cried out, withering as his fangs teased at the tender flesh and aroused her all the more. <br><br>Another cry, sharper, higher, a sweet shrill sound of pleasure that she just barely kept from being too loud fled her lips when he tugged on her hair, her back arching her head and leaving her open to his kiss as he claimed her lips in a way that spoke of possession, of control and she moaned for it, into it. The firm sense of him handling her, taking her, guiding her made her all the more aroused and she clung to his lips, pouring her heart into the kiss even as she took what he gave, and gave what he demanded, pliant to him but demanding as well, clearly half desperate for him and his touch. The growled would made a shiver quake through her as she gazed up at him, her eyes lost to their passions, the look only he ever saw on her delicate face. "Yours....forever..." she breathed out breathless. <br><br>Her nails dug into Lucerne's shoulders then, trying to urge him back to her lips, her hips squirming, trying to press closer to something, she felt too hot and yet not enough, as if she burning from the inside out and she knew if he didn't take her soon she would go made with lust. "Please Luc....please...I need it so badly..."

				How, how could he affect her so much? Could drive her so crazy with hardly any effort? For countless years she had been as ice, unaffected, unaroused, and yet now she burned like a flame beneath him. When he moved, his hands on her panties she trembled, knowing what was coming, feeling it like a phantom touch against her skin and nearly ready to burst from the anticipation that built within her body from it. She shifted her hips, helping Lucerne rid her of the thin material of her panties, baring the apex of her legs to her mate's eyes, the red curls and the slick, swollen flesh beneath it. The look in his eyes had the redhead shivering again on the bed as she bit down on her lower to keep in a moan that wanted to escape. <br><br>Lisette's teeth dug deeper into her lower lip as she moaned around her own lip at the sight of him pushing off his jeans, his nude body beyond what any god she had ever known had to offer. Strength, raw power, warrior, survivor, lover, protector, he was all that and more. He was everything to her and she would never give him up even if the fires of Hades threatened to consume her. His hands did not have to do much to urge her toward the edge of the bed, toward him and she lifted her lithe legs happily, wrapping them around his narrow hips and offering up the depths of her body to him with utter trust and a lot of arousal. <br><br>This position was one of her favorite's, she could take him so deep inside, and he had utter control, power and yet their eyes would meet, their hearts would speak even as the language of their bodies overwhelmed everything else. <br><br>A cry of pure pleasure, muted only by her will left her lips as he speared into her, her tightness wet silk around him, her body clenching at the invasion to provide even more delicious friction. She arched up, hissing out in pleasure as he moved, her breasts offered up even as his lips closed around a nipple and his tongue teased the tender nub. "Oh.....yes....fuck...Luc..." her hands clung to him, nails scoring down his back as she gave herself passionately to her husband. With her legs wrapped around his hips she rocked into his thrusts, taking him, demanding more yet following his pace, his control. It was clear she was wild in love with him, in lust as well, but she would never take control out of his strong hands.
