It was getting closer to the holidays. Lady had always loved Christmas as a human. Since she had been turned , it wasnt the same. Though she did still decorate the entire castle. The only ones constantly to be there and celebrate with her had been her servents. They were loyal humans, only to her. She kept them close as they were the only ones she trusted completely. Most had been with her thru generations. She had never turned a one of them.
Sighing softly to herself, she wandered into the main room. Standing was a huge tree. Decorations adorned it thru the centuries. Smiling as she sipped her champagne, Lady noticed a small gift . One that was not there this morning before she had retired for the day. Walking over to it , Lady bent down picking it up. The card only said 'Knowing your curiosity, you wont wait. Open it now.' Apparently from someone who knew her well but did not wish her to know from whom it was from. Calling one of the servents in , she turned to face them holding the gift up " Jacob, where did this come from? " He looked it over and shrugged. " I do not know mistress . Noone has been here that I have seen. " With that she nodded and dismissed him.
Carrying the package, Lady walked over to the fireplace setting in on the chair as she sat on the pillow on the floor. Sipping her champange, looking at it though it would just speak and tell her where it came from. Yes she had always been the overly curious one and yes she would open it . Reaching over Lady plucked the gift from the chair and set her glass down next to her. Her brows furrowed as she bit her bottom lip. Quickly she ripped the wrappings off. A plain black box sat in the palm of her hand. Carefully Lady lifted the lid. Her mouth dropped open , the firelight made her eyes sparkle a dark green. Inside was a ring , the beauty of it took her by surprise. Never had she seen a ring of this brillance. It was white gold, diamonds circled around the band. In the center was a black diamond. Only two stones, on either side where emeralds. The color of her eyes. She took it out of the box holding it up the fire bounced off the diamonds , sending sparkles like lightening over her face. It was then he spoke.
The voice she had waited centuries to hear. "You look at it as though it was your first kill. " He chuckled softly. Her back straightened , her eyes narrowed. Slowly Lady rose to face him. How he always got near her without her knowing she did not know. Damn him for that. He rose , walking towards her like a cat stalking his prey. A small smile formed on his lips as his black eyes devoured her. "Its been way too long chica. " Lady stood absolutely still , the ring still in her fingers , as he circled around her. She could hear him taking in her scent, stalking her in her own room. Turning to face him , he captured her in his arms towering above her, he kissed her deeply. Crushing her in his arms. Just as quickly broke the kiss , leaving her head spinning as was his nature with her.
He smirked and laughed. " Cat has also taken your tongue I see. At least for speaking anyways." Lady blushed slightly , not fully sure if from his innsinuations or from the flush she always felt when he was near. Taking the ring from her , he slowly slide it on the third finger of her left hand. The diamonds scraping along her flesh as they drew blood from her. They turned red briefly as they absorbed her blood, then back to their brillance again. He took her bloody finger into this mouth sucking it clean. His eyes sparkled with the knowledge of how pissed off she'd be at this gesture.
Finally coming to her senses Lady snatched her hand from him. Trying to pry the ring off , having no success. His laughter filled her head. Leaning in he whispered in her ear "No my love, it will never be removed. You belong to me . This you have known from the day I first took you. This small token seals your fate. " Pushing him back away from her Lady walked away from him as she tried to remove the ring again. He was there behind her in a flash. Wrapping his arms around her waiste, he kissed her neck softly. "When my kitten will you ever learn to not fight me. Must it always be this way. " Finally as it always was, he sunk his fangs into her neck. Drinking from her as a starved animal would . He carried her to her bed , with the wave of his hand , she was stripped naked. This time he took her gently. Made love to her as a human would thru the whole nite.
As the sun set the following nite, Lady woke. Finding herself alone again. She sat upright quickly . Tuning in her hearing , her sense of smell. He was gone. Was it a dream? Was it her wanting his return so badly that she imagined he had been there? She quickly looked to her finger. There sat his black diamond. Getting out of bed , Lady stared at the ring. Proceeding to throw everything breakable in the room . Smashing everything against the wall as she growled her rage. At him, at herself for allowing this. Falling to her knees on the floor, she whimpered softly. " I didnt realize my love, you had such a temper." Her head dropped as she heard that laugh once again. So this time he hadnt left her, at least for now .......
