Creatures of the Night ((Closed))

((You know, wjen Asher finds out that Seth is using compulsion to make her do things, and not feel their bond, he's gonna rip him a new one lol))

 

[Aspy Ink]

((I may be slow responding because regular school schedule has started up again, so if I'm slow, I apologize. And today, around 1:05-4:15 PST, I will be inactive because I have math and I have a mean math teacher this morning who doesn't allow phones lol))

 

[FangAndOzy]

Ember looked to him, her eyes running over him briefly and then she took her seat. "Hi." She says simply, reaching to grab for her notebook and pen and then looking forward, waiting for the teacher to start.


Seth glanced over to them and pretended to be curious, not understanding her actions. But inside he was smiling, this was going to be too fun.


((Ah! Even I don't like her being like this with him))


Nicoli paced anxiously in his room. He had never done well being locked up, and he sure wasn't having a great time with it right now. He snarled and slammed into the door again, watching the hinges loosen a little. It was a large steel door and unfortunately every time he damaged a door they replaced it. He sighed and went to his bed, plopping down on it. He was going to go stir crazy in here.

No worries. I have to work the late shift again today which is between 3pm-11:30pm my time. So once that happens my responding will be a little slower too.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher frowned softly as he was acknowledged by her so casually."Ember, are you okay?"He asked as he wrapped an arm around her waist.


Alex shook her head as class started and Nicoli wasn't here."I miss you so much....."She said quietly as she took out her notebook, doodling instead of taking notes. Tears falling down her cheeks as she doodled in her notebook, the year drops hitting the paper and making marks.

 

[Aspy Ink]

((Oh wow, I'll be in bed by then lol. I'm still a little emotional when I reply lol. I think I bonded with Nicoli lol, and im.in school which makes it worse when I get emotional because a bunch of random people are curious lol))

 

[FangAndOzy]

Ember looked down at his arm around her waist. It gave her an odd pleasant feeling, but she wasn't sure and so she glanced to Seth. He shrugged a little. She sighed and looked back to Asher. "Yeah, I'm fine." She says and then sighed again. "Look I know we're friends and all, but it would be less distracting if your arm wasn't around me." She says with a faint smile. She did remeber that at least. She knew they were friends. Though it was odd she'd be friends with a wolf. How did that happen again?


((Haha, I can see where being at school would make that awkward lol. I'm kind of like that with Asher though, so I understand it))

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher gave her a confused look."Ember, we're mates......."He said slowly as he looked at her, slowly removing his arm from around her waist. He glanced over to Seth, and gave him a lethal look. He would get to the bottom if this. With Alex's help of course.

 

[FangAndOzy]

"Well yeah if you want the Australian way of saying friends." She says with a giggle. "Seth is my mate though Asher, you know that. We've been friends since school started." She says. She still felt a little weak and she found herself reaching for one of the blood bottles from her bag. She was so hungry and really all she wanted was to go sleep again. But everyone thought she should be here.

 

[Aspy Ink]

"No, no, Ember. We're mates, uhm....we're dating....remember?"He saod t jer as he looked at her, trying to grasp this."I-I imprinted on you, we spent a night together, Ember...remember? When Nicoli was so wortied about where you where?"He asked her softly, watching Seth at the same time. He didn't trust him in the slightest.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Seth made sure to not even be looking at them, but he could hear every word and he was loving. Thank goodness he knew how to mask what he was feeling though.


Ember have him a small smile. "We can talk at lunch okay? I'm still really tired and it's hard enough to pay attention to the teacher." She says gently. She felt bad for him, she really did. But she was also terribly curious. Maybe something had happened.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher opened his mouth to argue, but sighed softly and nodded."Alright. We'll talk at lunch and get this figured out."He said slowly as he looked at her."We'll sit at our usual table."He saI'd softly as he looked at her, then to his notebook to take notes. He didn't underst and this. Was she rejecting him? Or had Seth done something to make her forget about him, and if that was t he case, he would make Setg pay, dearly. It wasn't going to be a threat, it was gonna be a promise.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Ember gave him a small smile. "Thank you for understanding Asher." She says sweetly. She was tired and instead of taking notes she found herself spacing out more and more and trying to hold back sleep.


When the bell finally rang she was glad to be allowed to move. Maybe she'd ask Seth to take her home after lunch. She was too tired.


((Do you want to skip to lunch?))

 

[Aspy Ink]

((Sure, I'll start))


Asher was sitting at their normal table quietly, he had explained what was going on with Ember to Alex, so she could help him.


"I don't know Asher. Vamoires have gifts, or powers. But from what I'm understanding, Setg might be doing something to make her feel that way. I think it's capled compulsion or something. Though vampires usually can't make it work om other vampires, so it may n or be that. Or it may be, and Emberlynn is too weak to fight it. We'll see."She said with a shrug. She was tired, and didn't have much to look forward to without Nicoli here, so she had very little reason to do anything.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Ember came outside first, Seth had told her to go ahead and to show Asher what happened to her. She smiled when she saw both of them. "I'm sorry Nic couldn't be here." She says to Alex, then she looked to Asher. "Come here, Seth thought I should show you what happened." She said. "What he saved me from." She grabbed his wrist and pulled him out of view of everyone else. Then she pulled up her shirt, not caring what he saw. In her sternum was a hole the size of a man's fist. There was a very thin layer of flesh had covered it and the edges were jagged. "He tried to rip my heart out I think. I don't really know. Seth killed him." She says, pulling her shirt back down. She shrugged. "He thought you might understand better if I showed you." She says as if she didn't understand why.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher was caught by surprise as he was pulled away, and he frowned as he looked at her."Oh my God Ember....."He said as he brought her into a tight hug, holding her close."Ember, I'm not sure what happened that made you forget that we were a couple, but Alex wants to help you remember it. Will you allow her too? She'll do it during lunch?"He asked her as he slowly pulled away from her, resting his arms on her hips lightly, looking down at her.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Ember gave him a small smile, thinking his worry was more friendly than romantic related. "For a bit I suppose, but Asher I am tired. I'm having Seth bring me home after lunch." She says quietly. She had bouts of energy now and then but then she would feel drained of energy. She pulled away from him and walked with him back to Alex and now Seth.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex was watching Seth quietly, reading his emotions as Ember came back. She was trying to find one slip up, that would tell her Setg was using magic, to make her forget about the fact Ember and Asher were mates. However, it was not obvious I'm any way, that she was looking at Seth for any specific reason, it looked more like she was spacinflg out, but she wasn't.


Asher wrapped an arm around Ember automatically out of habit, as they walked back."That's fine, it shouldn't take too long, Ember, I promise. And hopefully, you'll remember that we are a couple."He said softly ss he walked back to the table with her.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Ember gave Asher a small smile, and then moved to sit beside Seth once they were at the table. Seth was sitting with a completely straight, emotionless expression. Until he saw Ember, and then he smiled. She returned his smiled and leaned her head against him, closing her eyes and letting out a sigh. She was too tired to be here. "What is it you wanted to try Asher?" She asks. Humoring him in what he wanted to try.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex continued to watch Seth, sighing as he saw the way she interacted with Seth."Ember, do you remember the day you got hurt, before you went on that hunt. Asher had told you to be careful, that he didn't want to see you hurt. Do you remember the night you two spent together? When he said he loved you, when you ran into a vampire who seemed to know you, but wasn't in your clan?"Sh e asked Embrr, watching Seth's facial reactions closely, she would notice even the slightest hint, of using magic. It still didn't look like she was watching Seth very closely.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Ember smiled and slowly opened her eyes. "Sure I do. I don't remember Asher saying he loved me though." She says with a slight giggle. "Oh, and, Well, I don't really remember our hunt to be honest. That's sort of..." She paused. She did remember and she felt her anger growing. "I'm done here." She says, getting to her feet abruptly and turning to leave. She hadn't remembered anything from the hunt, but now she did and she was pissed off.


Seth sighed and looked to Alex and Asher. "She hadn't remembered the hunt. If she does now I need to go make sure her bloodlust doesn't take over." He mutters.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex stood up rather quickly, sighing as she watched Ember walk off."Asher, leave her be."She said with a sigh, before looking to Seth."I was hoping she would remember what happened during the school day, not the hunt itself. I'm sorry for that, Seth."She said as she looked over at him. She hadn't been able to tell if Seth was doing anything with magic in how short the time was she had with her. Maybe though, this would jumpstart her memory and she might remember a bit more about her amd Asher. If Seth at Alki as using Compulsion, it wouldn't work forever. It wouldn't work once Embrr had her strength bavk. She knew that much. She just didn't know when that would be.


Asher sighed as he wayche d her, before looking to Seth and walking over to him."You listen to me. If I find out you have anything to do with Ember not remembering our relationship, I will make you hurt. That's not a threat. It's a promise."He growled as he looked at him."You don't mess with the bond between a wolf and his mate without paying for it."

 

[FangAndOzy]

Seth looked at him coldly. "I am doing nothing. She just finally knows I love her to Asher. And maybe she's actually being smart and choosing one of her own kind." He snaps, moving to go after Ember. Smirking a little. None of that had been his plan, but it was good. He didn't want to lose hold of her just yet.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher growled as he walked off, before looking to Alex."Alex, you have to fiMD out if he's using compulsion om her. Please! This isn't like her. Maybe Nicoli could help."He said softly, unaware of what had happened withhim.


Alex shook her head."He can't help us. He's somewhere where I can't see him, or talk to him. It's because of our relationship that I can't see or be with him. I talked to his elders last night. There's no way NI coli can help us."She said before turning and walking off to the public library to do research, ditching school. She had no need to be I'm schlol at this time, so she decided she would do some more work on checking out and recognizing compulsion and how to tell if someone is under the influence of compulsion. She wiped a few years from her eyes as she thought of Nicoli."I miss you so much Nicoli...."She thought. She wished they were able to communicate but they couldn't.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Once Seth caught up with Ember he took her hand and led her to his car. "It's okay Ember. It's done now. He's dead. It's over." He says. Ember was breathing quickly, trying to get herself under control.


"I know. It's just...nothing makes sense right now." She says quietly. Seth held her close to him.


"I know. It will soon though. Don't worry." He assures her.
