Creatures of the Night ((Closed))

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli chuckled darkly and covered her hand with his. He wouldn't argue with her. He kissed her again, deciding that she was right.


((and skip to when Asher comes back?))

 

[Aspy Ink]

((Sure))


Asher had finally returned from his hunting trip, and was cooking up venison for Alex. He knew she would like to eat her meat cooked, unless she had just hunted it down. It was weird, but that was how she was. After cooking it, he came upstairs with the food, and left the medical stuff he got from the doctor's house downstairs. He knocked on the doorframe before entering."Alex, I brought some food."


Alex's eyes lit up at the mention of food. She sat a bit too quickly, and winced in pain before readjusting her position on the bed as she looked expectantly at Asher with a 'hurry up' look.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli chuckled as he watched Alex and then kissed her temple. "Try to eat all of it. Hopefully that won't be hard though." He says with a smile. He kissed her lips lightly and then got up to leave the room. He needed to restitch and rebandage his own wound. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"I'll be back when you're done Alex."He said with a soft smile, before he followed Nicoli down the stairs while she ate her food."I can probably stitch it up for you if you want."He muttered softly as he watched him.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli glanced over to him as he started to get everything together. "I may. Sewing myself up isn't always the easiest." He says with a smirk 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"Haha. Yeah. I can totally see that."Ge motioned to the couch for him to sit down, as he got the supplies out."Im sure Kyle did a number on you when he flipped you to the floor."He said with a soft chuckle.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli narrowed his eyes a little but couldn't help smiling faintly. "I would like you to take note that he only could because I was hurt." He says teasingly. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"Yes I know. Your strength out matches ours. I get that."He said as he sat down beside him."I'm not calling you weak, Nicoli. I'm not stupid."He said with a light laugh.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli smirked as he pulled off his shirt and tilted his head back. He feltnpain differently, at least he assumed he did when he saw how others were affected by it. But he still had to prepare himself for the pain to come. "You wolves aren't weak, not all of you. But Kyle is in a dangerous way - so is Seth. Their weakness comes from being blinded by the things they want most." He says. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"Yes. Kyle wants Alex as his mate. One time, he tried to mark her as his by force. That didn't turn out well."He growled at the mention of Seth."He wangs to take away my Emberlynn. But he won't be successful."He said before he took off the bandages, and cleaned up the wound.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli watched him work a moment and then looked up to him. "I can't guarantee I'll be much help, but I'll do what I can to keep Seth from messing with your bond again. My guess is though, he'll just keep trying and trying." He warns gently. He wasn't sure why though. Seth had only to wait almost a century and then Asher would be dead and Ember could be his, not that she'd want to be but Nicoli couldn't figure out why he was trying so hard now. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"I'm not sure either. If he wants her so bad, it would just be easier if he waited until I died."He said with a simply shrug as he began to thouroughly clean the wound once again. Not trusting the doctor.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli hissed a little in pain but managed to keep the discomfort in. "Do you know what kind of history your family has with the Vampires? Maybe he wants revenge on you or your family as much as he wants Ember." Nicoli suggests. Trying to keep talking to ignore the pain. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"I don't know my family's history with them. Jason found me as a child after my parents were killed. Well, that's what he told me. And he raised me like I was his own son. When my first shift came, he helped me through it. He doesn't speak much on my parents. They may have been rogues, and you know how much packs hate rogues."He said slowly, before grabbing the needle and thread, and beginning to stitch up the wound once he finished cleaning it."I think Alex has some history with them though. And Jason wonders if me and Alex are actual siblings. I'll ask her to look into it, and we'll see if we have any bad history with the vampires. I've only killed one vampire in my life. But he was a rogue. So I doubt he meant anything to Seth."

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli nodded. It would look into it too. Contrary to what some may think Vampires could have children...those were rare occasions though but it could happen. He would have to look into Seth's own background as well to see. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher finished stitching it up, and he grabbed some light bandages to protect the wound."And now Alex won't know you're wound reopened. Since she was conveniently out of it during that fight between you and Kyle."

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli smirked. "That had been awfully convenient." He says. He didn't want Alex to ever know how bad the wound was or how much pain it caused him. He wanted her to be focused on herself and healing. "Why didn't you mark Ember? I mean it's not like the two of you didn't have plenty of opportunities." He says. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"I don't know. Next time I see her, I will though. After I mark her, I will be able to sense what she is feeling, and communicate with her through a mind link. I will know when she feels scared, just like you should hopefully be able to feel that soon with Alex. Ember will feel the same things I feel about her. It makes the bond that much more intense, and much harder to suppress or break."He stated as he put the first aid kit away.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli nodded slightly and wondered if Asher really didn't know or if he'd been afraid to do it...like he had. But he wasn't sure and he didn't mind either way, he'd just been curious. "Thank you, for helping me." He says quietly. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"No problem. You're Alex's mate, and well, she means a lot to me, so you do to."He said with a shrug, before he looked over to the stairs."Alex! What the hell!?"


Alex had gotten bored of being cooped up in her bedroom and so she grabbed the dirty dishes, and began a small, slow walk down the stairs. About 3/4 of the way down, she lost her footing, which alerted Asher to her presence."I got bored."She said with a shrug before wincing as she slowly sat up, then held the railing as she stood herself up.

 

[FangAndOzy]

"Alex!" Nicoli exclaims, moving to help her. He sighed as he reached her. "Here," he says. He took the dishes in one hand and then used his free arm to help offer we support. "You're going straight to the couch." He mutters. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex grumble softly in protest."I'm not broken! I can do stuff on my own!"She argued as she shug his arm off and took the plates, walking slowly into the kitchen.


Asher's eyes narrowed."Alexandria. You are not supposed to up! If you're not careful you're going to hurt yourself even more if you keep doing stuff like this!"

 

[FangAndOzy]

"We know you're not broken Alex but if you're not careful you're not going to heal." Nicoli snaps. It was killing him that no matter what he tried he couldn't protect her. "If you keep getting hurt like this I can't help you. I'm trying my best to protect you and I can't." He adds in frustration. He was fraying. He was in no way angry with her. But he hated himself. There was nothing he could do for her. 

 

[Aspy Ink]

"You can't protect me all the time! I have to protect myself too!"She argued as she looked at him, before washing the dishes. She let out a squeal of surprise, and minor pain as Asher picked her up suddenly, cashing her to drop the dishes.


Asher narrowed his eyes, and he walked over to her, picking her up quickly. He carried her bridal style, while avoiding her wounds. Then, he walked towards the couch."We know that you're capeavle of protecting yourself, Alex, but we still worry about you. And it's Nicoli's job as your mate, to help protect you when he can. You know that."He said as he set her down.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli watched, his hands clenched into fists. He felt so lost, and with that was loosing his temper. "Perhaps you will listen batter to Asher. Do not leave the cabin Alex. I will be back in a day or so." He says simply. With that he turned on his heel and left the house. He had to go to the clan anyway, and so he figured now, while he needed to figure things out, was as good a time as any.
