Creatures of the Night ((Closed))

[Aspy Ink]

Jack was waiting for the note, but a few meters off, watching the borderline. When the note was dropped, he trotted over and picked up, running as fast as he could back to Jason, he shifted and walked inside."Here's the note Jason."He said softly, handing it to Jason.


Jason took the note, reading it quietly and leting out a relieved sigh as he saw that they would meet him. But he was concerned for Alex, she was still healing.


Alex watched as Jack came bacn and Sje moved to go inside the cabin, but was stopped by Kyle."Wait until he comes out Alex, I know you're worried about him."Alex sighed but finally nodded softly, waiting anxiously. She needed to know if Nicoli was safe.

 

[FangAndOzy]

When Zephira returned, Obadiah way he'd her curiously. "Where and when are we meeting them?" He asks his lovely mate. She grinned and climbed into bed with him.


"On the border of our territories, on our side. Nearest the pond encircled by willow trees. At midnight." She says. Obadiah chuckled.


"Ever the one for dramatics." He says, holding her close and kissing her sweetly. Despite what anyone thought, even if Obadiah and Zephira cared for no one. They did love eachother. The problem was that unlike may elders, they cared for members in their clan.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Jason walked out of the cabin quietly, looking over to Alex."They'll meet us. On their side of the border, at midnight. I'll wake you wjen it's time for us to leave, right now, you need to rest. You've done a lot today, Alex."


Alex looked up and hugged Jason tightly."Thank you Jason, so much."She said kissing his cheek. He was like a father to her, a father she never had. He had raised her with his blood daughter. Alex looked to Kyle with a smile."I'm gonna go rest, so there will be no need to watch over me."She said with a smile before going to her cabin, going upstairs, and began trying to fall asleep.

 

[FangAndOzy]

As midnight neared Seth found himself at Ember's bedside. She stirred some and then slowly opened her eyes. Her skin was a dead, grey color, dark bags under her eyes. Seth smiled and quickly brought her over a blood bag. Which she sucked down hungrily. She wanted more but she didn't have the strength. "W-where is Nic?" She asks weakly.


"Hush, not now, please rest my love." Seth says gently, staring into her eyes. Vampires typically were not susceptible to compulsion unless it was from an elder. But Seth had learned a few tricks. And Ember being weak and unwell was exactly what he needed. She simply nodded and little and closed her eyes again, taking a deep breath as she tried to rest more.


Obadiah and Zephira both went to the meeting place. Zephira hadn't thought it was a good idea for them both to go. But Obadiah insisted they did. Now as Midnight approached, they waited in the shadows of the willow trees. Waiting for the wolves to come.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Jason had woken Alex up, about a half hour till.midnight because they would be travelling in their human forms. And he wasn't going to allow Alex shift."We'll get this figured out, alright?"He asked her as he looked at her, before looking up as they reached the meeting place.


"Alright..."She said quietly as she looked up at him, then ahead of herself as they reached the meeting place. She placed a hand on her side, in case it was bleeding she didn't want them to catch the scent and have nearly happened with Ember, to happen again.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Once Jason and Alwx arrived, Zephira and Obadiah stepped out where they could be seen. Zephira looked every bit a dark angel and Obadiah just had an air about him that spoke of authority. As they stepped out Zephira inclined her head slightly in greeting.


"You wanted to speak. Do so." Zephira says with a slight wave of her hand. Obadiah smirked ever so slightly but then fixed his gaze on the wolves. He was surprised that the female was allowed here injured. Not that he cared. If he was a young vampire like Emberlynn he may be tempted by the scent. But he was not a young vampire.

 

[Aspy Ink]

"Well, I'm not entirely sure, what is going on, except that Alexandria came to me in a panic today. She had tried to contact the vampire she imprinted on, Nicoli, because she had an odd feeling in her stomach. Apparently the call was cut short, after Nicoli gave her an update on Asher's......mate..."He said slowly, trying to speak carefully."Alexandria is yhe one who wishes the most to speak to you."


Alex hesitated as she looked at the two vampires before her."It wasn't choice that I imprinted on Nicoli, and it's hard for anyone to ignore the feelings they would feel because of it."She said quietly."I don't know what's been said about us, but I want you to know, when it came between me, or Emberlynn, he always chose Emberlynn, always. Sometines it bothered me but, I knew that his main responsbilibilty, was to Emberlynn."She said as she looked up at them." I tried to call him because of that feeling I had, and he answered, but the phone hung up so quickly, that I didn't believe he was okay....I'm worried......"She pleaded with him."Is Nicoli okay?"

 

[Aspy Ink]

((Sorry it took so long, I'm trying to write a good response that will be easy for you to respond to, without seeming like a cluttered response. I've deleted it about three times already, lol))

 

[FangAndOzy]

Zephira narrowed her eyes a little, the blue almost seemed to glow. "He is fine." She says simply. "Pardon me if I do not quite believe your word over the word of one of my own." She adds.


"I think before anything else you should explain why you did not call for a meeting with us immediately when you found out that two of your wolves had imprinted on two of ours." Obadiah says, looking pointedly to Jason. It was obvious they would say nothing until they heard what they wanted.


"Yes, even if we knew, it's not like vampires have a day when a wolf imprints." Zephira points out. "Making it your responsibility Jason." She says calmly.

 

[FangAndOzy]

((Haha no worries I totally understand))

 

[Aspy Ink]

"I found out about Nicoli, and Alexandria, because of a fight I got in with Nicoli. He was defending himself over a few words I had said when I found out about it. I didn't ca for a meeting right away because Alexandria had gotten badly injured in that fight by me, because she had tried to stop it. Sje was in such bad shape, that I hadn't thought of calling a meeting until she had hea led a b it more. As for Asher and Emberlynn, I had no idea about their relationship until less then a day ago. I had suspected something of Asher, because he had a vampires scent om him, but I did not become fully aware of it, until early yesterday morning, when another wolf reported he had witnessed the two of them together, and I realized what had happened."


"Jason, when you found out about that, it was when Asher and Emberlynn came back from wherever they spent the night together. I remember that mainly because Nicoli was a nervous wreck. He didn't know where Emberlynn had went, because they left before he got our of class. He came and asked me where Asher was....and I told him I didn't know...."She said quietly, speaking to both Jason, and the two vampires.


"Yes, Alexandria, I know. I was getting ready to send a few wolves to find him, wjen I found out about it."He said to her, before looking back to the two vampires."I apologize if anything she says, could be seen as....impolite. She's a new wolf, and new to your ways."He said apologetically.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Zephira narrowed her eyes again and glanced to Obadiah. They seemed to have a momentary silent conversation and then they looked back to the two of them.


"Obadiah and I have been around long enough to know how important imprinting is to wolves." Zephira says.


"And we value the treaty we have with your pack," Obadiah adds, picking up where his mate left off. They seemed to speak like that often. "But we cannot allow the...relationships to continue." He says. Glancing to Alex.


"There are too many complications that come with a wolf and vampire being together. While offspring have a chance of being docile," Zephira starts.


"There is just as high a risk that they will be uncontrollable, receiving only the worst traits of a vampire and wolf. We have seen it before, even if it is not in any history books." Obadiah finishes. They looked to Jason, giving him silent permission to speak his mind on the issue.

 

[Aspy Ink]

"I completely understand that, but I wonder if that could cause some trouble. I'm not worried so much about Alexandria, but Asher.....he has temper problems. And often acts irrationally. Which is what worries me. According to Alexandria, he nearly blew up today when he finally got out why Embrrlynn was not at school. I'm worried that he may.....try and force it to see Emberlynn."He said sloww.


"Please! I won't mate with him, I promise! I just want to be with him again, to feel his touch. Please!"Se begged as she walked closer to him, getting to her knees and clasping her hands together."Please! I can't lose him!"


Jason sighed when Alex went over to the two."Alexandria, get back over here,now."He growled as he watched her, shaking his head. She was definitely, a stubborn wolf.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Obadiah just looked down at her and then to Jason. "Then you need to rein him in. You are his Alpha are you not?" He points out. It was more him just wondering how they would handle this. And he needed to play things out, let everyone believe one thing while he really thought another.


Zephira on the other hand crouched down in front of Alexandria, grabbing her chin with her hand and forcing Alex to look at her. "Do not grovel, while it may be fitting for you, it is annoying." She snaps. Then she sighed. "He will live long past you little wolf. He had already lived much longer than either of you have been alive. Nicoli will not be seeing you for some time." She says simply. It was more of a test. She was questioning the information from Seth more and more. But she and Obadiah needed to play things out. Deceive everyone until they got their answers.


Not to mention she wanted to see if this female really had imprinted on Nicoli.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Jason sighed."I know. And I've been working om his temper problem, it is my duty to rein him in, but in this case, with imprinting, I'm not sure how bad it'll get."He said with a sigh before looking to Alexandria, walking over to her and grabbing her arm, lifting up from the ground and pulling her a little ways away from the two, simply for respective space.


"But I don't know if I can stand not seeing him! I need him! At least let me see him one more time!"Sje said as tears began to fall, streaming down her cheeks.


"Alexandria, please."He said as he looked at her, sighing softly. She was making this difficult. He placed his hand on her back, trying to soothe her.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Obadiah raised a questioning eyebrow and glanced to Zephira. She shrugged and then they both looked to Jason. "Emberlynn will be at school tomorrow. Once we have deterred her blood lust. What happens happens, I do not know how she's feels about your wolf." Obadiah says simply.


"Though we'd prefer they did not keep seeing eachother. Emberlynn is impulsive and still has some...human tendencies." Zephira adds. She sighed a little and hen looked to Alex. "Nicoli is not your concern little wolf. The clan handles things in certain ways. But he is alright." She says.

 

[Aspy Ink]

"Asher is going to do everything he can, to see Emberlynn. Sadly, I can promise you that."He said with a sigh, looking down at Alex.


"Please just let me see him one more time, please...."She asked as she looked at him, but didn't get any closer to them partially because of Jaosn keeping her from going up to them again."I have to see him, I can't go without seeing him for lomg...."She said as she looked at them.


"There's never been records of a female wolf, imprinting, so I have no idea how this will affect her. UT Could Be The same, or entirely different from a male imprinting. But I don't doubt that she's imprinted om him. I wish s he wouldn't have, but she has no choice when it comes to this. Please try and remember that...""He asked them softly, keeping a hold on Alex who was waiting to hear if she would be able to see him one more time at least.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Obadiah looked to Zephira who shook her head ever so slightly. He sighed and then looked to Jason and Alex. "We have our rules and laws. We can't make exceptions for our own. Let alone a wolf." He says and Zephira sighed quietly.


"Little wolf, we both know you can form a bond with another. I have seen it and surely you know." She says, her tone much gentler this time, almost understanding.


Despite anything Obadiah and Zephira thought, they had to play up their reputation and anything else they could so they could secretly do what they needed.

 

[Aspy Ink]

"Can I at l communicate with him somehow? Write letters to him or something? Just so I can hear from him?"She asked them.


"I understand that perfectly. I do hope this....misunderstanding, can be figured out. For all our sakes."He said as he looked at Alex, holding her close to him."Alex.....you may end up forming a bond with another wolf. It won't be as strong as you have with Nicoli, but it will still be a strong one."He said gently ashe liked at her. The only reason he was doing this, was because of how new she was, and how little she knew.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Zephira sighed and hesitated only a brief moment. Only Obadiah knew she did not want to say what she was about to. "If he chooses, then I will see what we can do." She says simply. Clenching her jaw a little. Only Obadiah knew that she did not want to say the lie. He sighed and looked to Jason.


"Do you have more we need to discuss? Until this issue is resolved I expect we will be needing to converse more than usual." He says.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex smiled slightly and she nodded."Thank you."She said gratefully, before looking up at Jason."Not as if right now. If something comes up, or I feel we should have another meeting I will leave another nitem fot you."He said as he bowed his head respectively."Come on Alex, you have school tomorrow and you need your rest."


Alex nodded softly. But before she left, se turned back to them."Emberlynn really is his top priority...."She said to them quietly, before moving to follow Jason. Not that she had much choice, Jason had a hold on her wrist.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Obadiah and Zephira both waited until Jason and Alex were out of earshot. Then Zephira turned to her mate as he came up to her and held her close. "She was not lying, about any of it." Zephira says quietly. Some vampires had gifts, a small part of Zephira's was being able to tell when someone was lying.


"And Serh?" Obadiah asks.


"He was only partially lying. But a lot of what he said was true too. We need to figure this out my love." She says gently. Obadiah sighed and nodded.


"What of Emberlynn and...Asher?" He asks her. Zephira sighed.


"We continue to let it play out as it has been. Besides, I'm interested to know how much her wolf comes through when she is with him." She says.


"Very well. If that is what you wish, then we will leave them be fore now. And what of Nicoli?"


"He will not correspond with her. Not until we fully understand what is going on between him and Seth. I do wish I did not have to lie to the poor girl though." Zephira says.


"I know." Obadiah agrees.


((Do you want to skip to the next day??))

 

[Aspy Ink]

((Yeah, perhaps you could start though? I'm getting really tired and would most likely not n able to give a good starting post))

 

[FangAndOzy]

((Yeah that's fine (: ))


The next morning Emberlynn seemed as if she were in a daze. Her movements and actions were done because they had to be. She drank her full of blood and then some. And even then Seth knew to pack lots and lots extra. Using old tomato juice bottles to put it in, in case anyone asked.


Ember was still the same deathly grey color and her eyes seemed sunken in, still with dark bags under them. For the most part, once she moved around more, she would be more herself. The only difference was that while she was weaker, Seth had used compulsion to make her not feel her mate bond. And he planned to use that and have some fun with it.


Before too long they were leaving the clan and heading to the school. He was glad he had first class with her, it made it easier to keep an eye on her. He also needed to make sure she was doing okay. The way the vampire had injured her left its mark. And did its damage.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher was sitting in their normal spot, waiting anxiously for Emberlynn. Wjen he saw her walk in, he smiled, then frowned when he saw what condition she was in. Sje looked horrible. Sighing he glanced to Seth. He didn't trust him in the least bit, and he gave him a narrowed glare, before looking back to Emberlynn waiting for her to sit down."Hey Emberlynn."He said softly as he looked at her, trying to give her a small smile.


Alex came into the school the next morning, walking with Kyle to her class. Once he took her to her class and she took her seat, he went to his own. He knew she missed Nicoli, her bond with him was a strong one, though he hoped he would be able to get her to start bonding with him, in Nicoli's place. Alex sighed as she tapped her fingers, watching the door and hoping Nicoli would shoe up. She knew he wouldn't though.
