Dark Innocence (1x1 Guardia and PRSCB)

"Erik!" I exclaim, rubbing his neck in consolance- for what, I don't know. "What did do? Okay, I'll hide. Promise." I let my aura seep into him, finding the part of him that was pulsing red and gently calming it down with my essence. "Erik, shh. It's okay. Don't worry. Whatever happens has happened, and in all honesty, it's been quite a night and all this emotional weight is probably bearing down. Come on, don't cry, not in front of me! Shh, it'll be okay."

 

[ConverseGhost]

My shoulders clicked together, unable to hold it. A hot tear slid away, but I wiped it away angrily. "I-I'm sorry! I should have more control! I should be able to do this! My-my mind's all..." I choked but sobered up. "I-I'm fine. It something that happened long ago. Something that I couldn't stop," I spoke softly.

Hey, how about we go to sleep now. It's been quite a night. I'll sleep with you if it'll help you feel better, alright. Have a shower? Because if you do, I think I'll take one, change, and meet you in your room." I have him another rub on the back before stepping back, my face still creased in concern. "Where is your room anyway?" I ask, pulling out my hot coco and sipping it leisurely. I was aching to take off the jacket, but as I said- no stripping.

 

[ConverseGhost]

I nodded, wiping at my cheeks until I was sure there were no tears. I turned and beckoned to my room that was at the end of the hall. It was a bit dark but I turned on the lamp on the nightstand and the room felt warm and cozy. "I got your clothes from my bottom drawer," I nodded to the beau at the foot of my king sized bed. The bathroom was right across from my door so I gathered some clothes and left to go to the shower, locking the door behind me.

"Wow. Wow, this is so big!" I admired. When he went to go take a shower, I looked through his clothes to try and find something to wear. I stripped of my remnants of a shirt and picked out one of his shirts and shorts, throwing them over my arm. "Know where there's a spare bathroom, or is yours the only one?" I asked, getting comfort in the fact that he couldn't see through the door and see me in just my undergarments. Way too soon for that. As I waited for an answer, I started fluffing the pillows. "Why is your bed so big? Is it for the wolf-man?"

 

[ConverseGhost]

"Calissa, you forget I have Wolf ears as well. And no, I just like big beds. I have the money to afford it, so I'll buy it. And there's a guest bathroom just down the hall. In the guest bedroom," I called, the water turning on. I stood in the hot water, fighting tears. I shouldn't have said anything. I should ask Bernard if he could bury those memories once more. He wouldn't tell the other Betas because he knew what the pain was.

"Alright- let me know if you need anything." I trotted over to the guest bathroom. As I turned the water on in the shower, I peeled off my undergarments and cringed at the dried blood on them. I ran the sink and washed them before hanging them up by the sink. As I stepped into the steaming water, clods of dirt and leftover scabs rinsed off, and my skin was left clearer and more luminous. I cringed as my wings wrinkled up, but such was the price,of a shower. I looked curiously at the shampoo sitting in there, then chuffed at the labels. They were all buff men's things, but I shrug and used them anyway. *shampoo is shampoo*. I got out, dried off, and pulled on my underwear before throwing the shirt on over my wings, leaving my bra to dry more, as the foam was still uncomfortably wet. The fabric stuck to my figure as my wings dampened it, but I sighed. I didn't want to ruin all his shirts. I worried of how my parents were feeling, and hoped Mysti got to them. I was going to meet her 6 am tomorrows owe could switch places, but we might spend a couple minutes chatting or something. I don't know, I've never really had a friend like her. I walked out whie, mulling this over, and knocked on Erik's door. "Done yet?" I asked politely.

 

[ConverseGhost]

I stood over the sink, head bent over. My hair stuck to my cheeks and forehead. It smelt of my favorite shampoo but for some reason, it wasn't as strong as before. Maybe I didn't use as much. I tugged on my black pajama pants and a grey tee that seemed a little too snug. The knock on the door snapped me our of it and I opened the door. My eyes were dark and the hair stuck to my forehead. "Yeah. You got a problem?" I smiled, pushing through the pain in my heart. Usually my Wolf shoved down emotional pain. Ugh, where was he? I laughed, sniffing her neck. "You smell like me," I glad that she was now marked as mine a bit more. "You alright?" I touched her cheek, unaware of why I was concerned for her. I just felt like she needed someone to ask her that.

"I'm a little nervous," I said. "What do I tell my parents when I get home? 'Yeah, I got my wings torn open then slept with the guy who did that. Whoops!'" I looked at him, immediately remorseful. "It's not your fault or anything, though!" I correct myself. I hop onto the bed, wondering at the expensive material. "Where do you get all this money?" I asked curiously.

 

[ConverseGhost]

My eyes somehow got darker, looking away. "It pays to be a Hunter. I'm a Bounty Hunter. I chase down people who are wanted dead and kill them for money. It's gruesome but I have no education. I was taught enough to survive. I can read and do math but I have no college degree, nothing. So, I take my talents and put them towards what I can do. But some people don't wanna die," I laughed, my hand running over the long scar that ran from one side of my chest to the other, just under my lungs. "Silver burns us. If...if I ever go after you, there's a gun loaded with silver bullets in my top drawer," I sighed, sitting on the bed next to her.

My pupils dilated in sympathy, but I managed a small giggle and said, "I'd probably accidentally shoot myself. And don't worry- I have other means." *Mysti*, I thought. I did wants be friends with her, because she seems nice when she wasn't trying to murder me. I fidgeted uncomfortably and then asked, "Is it okay if I rip up another shirt? My wings are bothering me a bit. I mean, if I can't, I totally understand," I said quickly. "And really? I'm not wanted for anything, am I?"

 

[ConverseGhost]

"No, go ahead. Those are all for the guys to borrow. They're too small for me. This one's about to join the pile," I pulled at my shirt. "Here," I turned her around and carefully ripped two slits into the back of the shirt. "And, if there was something on your head, you wouldn't be sitting here, no would you," I teased softly, kissing the curve of her neck gently.

 

[PRSCB]

Carissa


"You wouldn't kill me even if there was," I teased. I sucked in a death when his lips brushed my neck. "Mm," I make a faint noise from the back of my throat. "What's that feeling I get when you touch me like that?" I ask innocently, breaking away to look at him curiously.

 

[ConverseGhost]

"You might be nervous. Or you might be scared. However you react I will act accordingly. I would never force you to do anything. I would never hurt you or run you away. So please, don't be afraid of me," I whisper, pressing my lips on her shoulder.

 

[PRSCB]

Carissa


"Wow, quick, hm?" I can't help but tease, then shudder as his lips touch my skin. I was a Healing Light, so I had extra sensitive touch receptors, and by the Sun, that felt shivery and good. "When'd you learn to do that?" I asked faintly, my head naturally tilting back to expose my neck, my damp hair dripping onto the bed as my wings smoothed out. My head was beating quicker, and my aura was turning a deep peach.

 

[ConverseGhost]

I pushed away, turning my head. "Don't...Don't bare your neck. My Wolf may be asleep but...I-I still have the urge to bite. It's a part of me and..." I held myself from speaking, my jaws aching. I couldn't feel my fangs but my teeth would be sharp enough to bite into her neck. I wouldn't tear into like my Wolf would but her blood...It would more than what a Human's would taste like. "Please, promise me. I don't ever want to hurt you."

 

[PRSCB]

Carissa


I snap my head up, and my aura deepens into a deep crimson. "I don't- I didn't- it just did, I wasn't thinking about it! I'm sorry!" I apologized in humiliation, my cheeks flushing. "It just happens around you... That's like the third time. My body just does it. I'm so sorry!" I start opening the covers to get in, still blushing. "Which side is yours?"

 

[ConverseGhost]

I sighed and let out a soft laugh. "The center," I tease and look to her. "It's not your fault. You don't mean to. It's just...the way Wolves mate is through blood. And it's a one time thing so I don't want to trap you into something you can't escape," he leaned over and kissed her ever so gently. "It's funny, because you're Light and you're already submitting to an Alpha."

 

[PRSCB]

Calissa


My lips tingled and I looked up at him in confusion. "Submitting- what? I don't get it," I said, tying my hair in a high bun to I could sleep. My neck was exposed, but not that exposed, so I assumed it would be okay. "So they just skip... It... And they're mated?"

 

[ConverseGhost]

I laughed and kissed her jaw. "I have no idea what you mean. But submitting is telling the Alpha that you will do what they want as they command it. That you will be loyal to both them and their cause and question nothing," he smiled, wrapping her up in my arms as I got under the covers.

 

[PRSCB]

Calissa


"How can I submit when I don't even know what your cause is? Mine is to heal- I'm studying to become a certified Doctor, Psychiatrist, and Healer," I say, snuggling up to him. "I want to stop innocent death. I want to heal the wounded. It hurts me when others are hurt, and I want them to feel happy. I want-" my voice caught in my throat at my conviction behind my words. "I want to be the best Healer, I want everyone to be safe and happy and secure. I don't want someone to have to sit in their room and cry that they don't belong, or dwell on others achievements. I don't want a scratch to be left to infect, I don't want a girl to be raped and tortured, I don't want a broken bone left untreated. I want the ideal for everyone."

 

[ConverseGhost]

I smiled and pressed my lips to her damp hair. "Calissa, you have to be one of the sweetest, kindest girl's I've ever met. I just wish I was a noble and sweet and caring as you are. It hurts me to think that I could never care as much as you could. I strive but I will never be or ever come in competition to you. I-I-" I stopped, knowing what I wanted to say but I couldn't. No, she'd run. She'd go home, leave me behind.

"Hey, take it easy. I've only known you for five hours. Besides, Those are simply aspirations for a girl with no social life and one friend," I said shyly, my Light nature returning. "I'm probably going to grow up a housewife to five children and a husband, or a single homebody who makes a living out of healing the occasional wound. At least I'll graduate top of my class. Hopefully."

 

[ConverseGhost]

"Hopefully the first one. I wish the best for you in the future. I hope you never have to experience the pain I've put you through today," I sighed, lying back on the bed. I turned over, my back to her. This was a night, huh? Wonder what the Pack will think when I come back covered in the scent of a Light. They'll ask me questions...I'll either have to open her up for taunting and evil or write out my own doom.

 

[PRSCB]

Calissa


I sighed, turning and resting my head against his chest. "I don't think that will happen again. What will happen to you? Will I see you again?" My wing that wasn't against the bed wrapped around me and him, like a blanket made of me. I could feel his strong back through my sensitive wing nerves, and I smiled, feeling protected by him.
