-1Chapter Six
Duo opened the doors and they entered the great hall, a large room filled to the brim with creatures that people would consider to be monsters. People who looked more like bulls walking on two feet, and others with tails, horns, and wings, giant boars that talked, blood like drool spilling out of there mouths. Elves that looked like they would rip you apart and eat your hearts. Duo walked past them, head held high, and they coward, but the straightened back up and hissed and sneered as Wufei walked by, Wufei just ignored them.
Each was a recipient of Heero's cold glare as he brought up the rear. Most of the creatures backed down from Heero's glare, but a few tried to match it, something that proved not to be an easy task. One bull in particular stepped in front of Heero and took in a deep breath.
"New blood." He growled. Duo was between them in an instant.
"Do you wish to die." He growled. The bull like creature backed away bowing his head lowly.
"My apologies..."He growled glaring at Heero. Duo growled at him and walked past him.
Heero didn't know what his role was so he stayed between Wufei and Duo. Duo sat down on the throne, carved from demon bones, and waited for Trieze to step forward.
"You're majesty, I found these two stealing from my property." Trieze said. Duo yawned.
"What the hell do you want me to do about it. You know the laws and they know the laws." Duo said simply. As Heero watched the preceding of the court he realized that it was not much different from that of the world of humans, with one exception. The players were deadlier by far. One wrong move and these subject could rip you off the throne and tear you from limb to limb. So he just watched and learned what he could.
"Leave." Duo suddenly yelled, standing. The people grumbled and left without a voiced argument to their king. "These are always to boring." He said at Heero smiling. Duo looked at the window, the sun was up, but blocked out of the room. "What do you want to do?" Duo asked him, pulling him close.
"What are my choices?" Heero asked not fighting him.
"Anything you want." Duo said, his smile growing, revealing his sharp canines.
"Things like this always tire me out" Heero answered, indicating the court.
"Yeah me too, that's why I can only handle three or four cases a day, at most, so anything you want, we'll do it." Duo said.
"Sleep." Heero may have eaten only a few hours ago but he felt oddly drained.
"Are you sure?" Duo asked.
"Hai. I'm tired." Heero mumbled, practically felling asleep in his arms unaware of the strange creacher that stood not fifty feet away that was enjoying his energy as a snack.
Duo noticed the symptoms and lifted Heero into his arms, leaning over the whisper to Wufei. Wufei nodded and left their side. Duo stood and carried Heero out of the room. That bastard had just ruined his day, and now Duo was going to ruin his. He smiled at Heero, maybe Heero would like to taste demon blood. It was far different then human blood.
Heero started to twitch as he started having a nightmare and his fingers clutched the front of Duo's shirt. Duo clutched him close and entered his room laying him down on the bed he shook him gently. "Heero." He said, then shook him once sharply.
"Hn" Heero jolted awake "Hai?" He sat up.
Duo brought his neck to Heero's mouth in a flash. "Drink." He ordered.
"Hn?" Heero was startled.
"Drink!" Duo said more forcible. Heero did as he was told and gently sank his teeth into Duo's neck. It reminded him of wine that had been perfectly aged. Duo waited until Wufei dragged the demon in by her hair and shoved her on the bed, where Duo could reach her. "You dare feed off your prince?" He asked. She shook her head, scared to death of her King. Duo grabbed her by her hair. Pulling away from Heero and putting her in front of him, neck exposed.
Heero sank his teeth into her rough flesh. The taste was exhilarating and he could feel the power in it as he drank. Yet he was a bit disappointed. The flavor was lacking and when he thought about it all the blood he had tasted had. All but Duo's rich blood that reminded him so much of the perfected wine, but he continued to drink.
Duo sank his teeth in the other side of her neck, drinking the blood with Heero.
"mmmmmmmm" Heero closed his eyes. He was enjoying this very much.
The girl in there clutches went limp, her life gone. Duo tossed her away and pulled Heero in for a kiss. Liking away the blood hungrily and devouring Heero's mouth. He pulled away. "Sleep." He said and left the room. He needed to talk to his people, Heero would not be messed with again. Heero was at a loss for breath. His world had turned round and round when Duo pulled the demon girl away and drank of Heero's lips. His mind was mush as he laid down and fell asleep.
----------------------------------------------
Duo came back an hour later and crawled into bed with Heero, wrapping his arms around him and falling asleep along side his prince. Somehow during their sleep, Heero's arm and leg had draped themselves around Duo.
Duo woke up the next night and slipped out of bed before Heero could get up. He had a surprise for his little prince. Oh how payback could be a bitch. He smiled and slipped out of the room.
Heero woke about an hour later and ventured from the room looking for Duo. Duo was sitting in the kitchen talking with Quatre and Trowa. Two humans each of about twenty, were chained and gagged on the ground. "No the men didn't even hear me coming." Duo said finishing up his story.
Heero knocked on the open door "May I enter?"
Duo laughed. "There is no need to ask." Duo said with a smile towards Heero. Both Quatre and Trowa smiled at him in greeting.
"Hello Quatre, Trowa, Duo" He took the chair next to Duo ignoring the humans.
"Heero? Do you remember when I said I would have my pay back?" Duo asked, his lips close to Heero's. Heero nodded his eyes on Duo's lips.
"Well I want you to go with Quatre and wear what he gives you, that's all." He moved away from Heero and went back to talking with Trowa.
"Hn?" Heero got up and followed the blond servant.
Quatre blushed when he handed Heero a black and blue dress.
"HN?!" Heero's eyes widened. "There is no way I'm wearing THAT!" Heero growled.
"Then take it up with-never mind." Quatre said, strong arms wrapped around Heero.
"Is that a fact Heero?" Duo asked whispering in his ear and licking it lightly.
Heero shivered remembering the kiss from the night before "Hai" it came out as a whisper.
"Oh, really, well you either wear the dress or you get you're own room." Duo said and left.
Heero growled and grabbed the dress. He emerged from the room fifteen minutes later in the black and blue dress. Duo ignored him for a moment. Favoring Trowa with the conversation they were in. Heero just walked by him on his way down the hall playing with a blue and black fan like a lady would as he went.
Duo eyed him and growled. "Get back here." He growled out dangerously. Quatre grabbed Trowa's arm and pulled him from the room.
"Never get between a vampire and his prey." he said. And Duo had his eye on prey right now. very tempting prey.
"Hai?" Heero turned back to Duo as if just realizing he was there
Duo leaned in and was about to kiss Heero but then said. "I caught dinner for both of us, take you're pick." He said and pulled away.
"I have to watch my figure you know" Heero was playing as well but that did not change the fact that he was in a dress and was not happy with it. Duo just laughed a little and eyed Heero expectantly. "Just eat, you little tease." He growled out, bearing his teeth.
Heero grabbed the woman and sank his teeth into her. His eyes never leaving Duo for an instant. When Duo saw the women die he walked over to Heero and motioned for him to stand up. Heero dropped her to the cold floor and did not bother to clean his lips as he stood. Duo leaned forward and licked Heero's lips slowly working his tongue through Heero's lips and devouring his mouth again. His arms wrapped around Heero's waist and pulled him to him tightly, groping his butt roughly. Duo pulled away and moved to Heero's ear. "You know the best thing about a dress?" He asked, licking Heero's ear.
"Hnn?" Heero was a little dazed from the kiss.
"Wouldn't you like to know." Duo said and walked off ignoring the human on the ground for now. Heero followed him not knowing what else to do.
"Heero stop being a puppy and do something already." Duo said with a smile, though his back was turned on Heero. Heero took his folded fan and popped Duo on the butt with it as he walked by. Duo licked his teeth and disappeared without warning, his voice echoing behind him. "Come find me, my little prince."
"HN" Heero growled as he charged down the hall checking Duo's room first. Empty. Finding it empty Heero tried the throne room.
"Empty...try the kitchen." It was Duo's voice.
Heero turned and ran back to the kitchen throwing open the doors. The human who had been alive now lay dead, her blood drained. "You're too slow Heero, I'm outside...come to me, little prince."
Heero was loosing his cool as he charged out into the garden. Duo stood out in the garden with his back facing Heero, the moon light washing over his pale skin, a wine glass of blood in his hands.
"I am not chasing you any farther!" Heero growled as he walked up to him very frustrated.
"You didn't have to chase me in the first place." Duo said with a sly smile. Heero folded his arms over his chest and glared at Duo. "Oh did I make my little prince angry. You shouldn't have made me go to you're home during the sunlight hours." Duo said, still smiling, he swirled the glass, making it so the blood wouldn't dry in it.
"And you could have waited until dark" Heero huffed and went back into the castle. Duo growled and followed him. He caught Heero from behind and forced him against the wall, arms behind his back tightly. Duo licked his neck, very similar to the position from the first night Duo had pinned him. Heero growled trying to keep up his frustration but it was melting away as Duo licked his neck.
Duo pushed a knee between Heero's legs. "You are mine Heero." He whispered into his ear.
"Ahhhh" Heero moaned enjoying what the Vampire King was doing. His mind returning to a pile of mush.
Duo pulled away yet again and walked down the hall, not giving Heero reason or explanation. Heero slid to the floor panting and trying to clear his mind. What was going on?
Duo went back to his room. Dawn would be upon them soon. Tomorrow he would take Heero out for another hunt. Heero did not return to Duo's room, he wondered the halls until sun rise and slipped into the music room were he sat on a couch and drifted off to sleep.
Duo sat up after the millionth time of turning in his bed and stormed out of his room in search for Heero, a cloak drawn over him so he could move freely. "Where is HE!!" He yelled at the first servant he saw which happened to be Wufei.
"I have not seen him" Wufei jumped out of the way.
Duo growled at him and stormed off, the next person he came into contact with was Zechs. "WHERE...is...HE!" He nearly screamed, grabbing Zechs by the throat and shoving him into the wall.
"I think I saw some one in the music room Sir" Quatre said running for his life.
Duo dropped Zechs and headed towards the music room in a blur. He slammed open the door, braking it off it's hinges and started towards Heero seething in anger.
"Hn?" Heero sat up and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes.
"Why are you NOT in my bed?" Duo asked through his teeth, stepping closer to Heero.
"Hn?" Heero stood still rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
Duo softened a bit but kept his mask on. He threw Heero over his shoulder, and making sure to stay in the shadows, he made his way back into his room throwing Heero down onto the bed and laid down himself. "Mine!" he growled and fell back asleep, cuddling up with Heero tightly in his arms.
"That was scary!" Quatre cried in the kitchen.
Zechs rubbed his neck in agreement. "Does he do that a lot?" He asked.
"Not really" Wufei answered
Trowa laughed a bit. Zechs glared at him. "Hey the only reason you're laughing is because you didn't feel his wrath." Zech said.
The next evening Heero was the first to wake. He tried to get up but found himself restrained by Duo's arms
"You're not going anywhere." Duo growled. "Why did you not come here for bed/' He asked, pulling Heero closer to him.
"I felt like walking and fell a sleep in the music room" Heero answered.
Duo glared at him suspiciously. "We are going hunting tonight." He said and pulled himself out of bed.
"Would you like me to wear the dress or pants?" Heero asked not caring any longer about it.
"I think pants will be fine, well save the dress for later." Duo said with a suggestive tone. Heero nodded and walked to the second wooden cabinet and started to change. Duo watched him for a moment before dressing himself.
--------------------------------------------------
An hour later found them walking the streets of a city full of people. "Be careful in this town Heero. They know of vampires here." Duo said quietly.
"Hai" Heero said as he walked beside Duo.
"Choose you're prey." Duo said casually.
"How about the twins?" Heero nodded to a pare that walked side by side.
"Sounds good." Duo said.
"Hai" Heero said and Duo and himself walked toward the unsuspecting pair.
"You there!" Duo turned to see a black haired man behind them "Leave them alone. I know who you are?" The man said, taking out a cross and a wooden stake. Duo laughed.
"Oh you think I cross will hurt me." Duo said, pulling aside his shirt to reveal his own cross." The man dropped the cross and growled out at the pair.
"Vampires are not welcome here."
"Then make me leave." Duo growled out. The man charged Duo and Duo made to charge back but the man was on him in a blink of an eye the stake in Duo's chest.
"Hn!" Heero was behind the man in an instant and snapped his neck. He scooped Duo up and ran out of the town. He did not know how to get back so he found a cave for them to hide in "Duo?" Heero pulled out the stake and offer his neck to Duo. Duo lay shaking on the ground yet deathly still at the same time. He made no move towards Heero's neck, his eyes were tightly closed and he was clawing at the hole in his chest, which luckily missed his heart, just barely, his breath was heavy.
Heero cut his own neck with one of his nails letting the blood run. He pulled Duo up forcing Duo's mouth to open around the cut tasting the blood on his tongue he roughly bit into Heero's neck and started sucking. And he didn't stop.
Heero started to feel the pain but did not cry out until he felt that his life was threatened. He could not help but to pass out in Duo's strong grip. Hearing the small cry of pain, Duo's eyes snapped open and he pulled away pushing Heero away from him. He looked around. they weren't home. He pulled Heero closer to him and checked to make sure the boy a still there. He then passed out on top of him, his blood still spilling from his open wound.
