"I had no idea we would be able to move this fast. The great city of Manak, it only a few miles south of here.  Let us rest, and finish the small amount of drink I have here.  Tonight, we will make for the city and hopefully feel some sense of security."   We make our way into the cave as dawn breaks.  A few hours later, we smell the hounds and hear men searching only a half mile away.  I take you by the hand and we go further into the cave, using no light, just our strong vision and senses to guide us.  I pull you close to me as the cave narrows.    We finally squeeze into an interior room deep in the cave system. "We should be safe her for the time being." I hand you the skin of blood. "Drink, grow strong, your young body needs it."  I sit down, and pull out the spoils from our raid on the castle.

I take a good drink before handing it back to you. "did we get enough things to hold us for awhile? I mean I couldn't find you any cloths so you will have to buy some but i have a whole new wardrobe to hold me for awhile and I can mend what needs it." I look around our inner room with a smile and turn to you my eyes bright with excitement. "when we go to the city are we going to have a real place to stay? or is it always going to be caves?"

There is something wrong in life when my most dominate side is my muse, and she doesn't listen to me. She skips around doing her own thing and ignoring me.

"I would think this is our last cave for a while. I have an old friend in the city, who should be able to find us discreet accommodations. You deserve a soft bed, and a warm bath. As for clothes, I will get some as soon as we reach the city. My hunger is growing, as I am sure yours is too."  I lay back and am glad to no longer hear the hounds or horsemen.  Likely they have widened the search, and we should be deep enough in the cave to stay hidden.  I look at the young Liliana, and think of when my wife was young.  I hate to say it, but Liliana is even more beautiful that she was.  I smile at you, and lay my head down...

Snapespersephone

I lay next to you and smile looking up at you. "Oh i shall have my own room then? How will you explain me to your friend with he discretion?" I admire your noble features and get lost in a daydream of us actually having been married that makes me blush profusely as strange feelings course through my body. "he will not judge you for having a young unmarried girl with you will he? maybe we should just stay in the cave James"

"He is a very old man, and a close friend of my father.  Last I heard he was a slave trader, so I doubt he will cast judgement on us.  However I will keep your true identity a secret, but seeing that word has definitely spread of you missing and the attack on my castle, I will present myself in my new form to the old man.  He has seen much and will not out us." I see you blushing and wonder what caused it.  I feel warm inside with you next to me.  "I am not sure if you will have your own room, or any room at all at this point.  But my friend is very crafty, so I am sure our quarters will be more than suitable for a girl of your status."  I think about what to tell the old slave trader, he has knowledge of my family, and has probably heard word of its demise.  He will be shocked to see me, especially now that I am a creature of the night.  I will say I saved the young girl outside my lands from the same band of vampires, and I had to turn her as well to save her.  But her features are too beautiful for a farm girl. I will say she was a ward of mine, and that she ran the night of the attack, only to be found by me on my escape.  "Just play along when we reach the city and I am sure we can make this work."

"Oh I have complete faith that I will be safe with you so tell whatever story you need i will back it up with pleasure." I lay against you thinking of the kiss you gave me in your excitement and trying to formulate a plot to get it to happen between us again/ "Uh James about earlier...the...uh kiss? why did you do that?"feels like a fool the second the words leave my mouth and I wish I could take them back in an instant.

"I was hoping that maybe you had forgotten.  The break in and fire, and all the excitement, it just happened.  I saw your angelic face in the chaos, and I could not help myself.  I am sorry." I feel ashamed, and pull away a bit.  What what I thinking, this girl could have had the pick of the realm, and here I am practically holding her capitive in a cave.  When we reach the city, I must treat her like a lady, and allow her to process all that has happened.  I try to go avoid going back to the terrible dream state, but cannot bring myself to say anything else to you.  I lay there in silence, hoping that tomorrow brings us some peace.

Snapespersephone

"No please don't shut me out James. I did enjoy your kiss it just made me feel strange is all. laying next to you and seeing you wash yourself does as well." hides my face in shame knowing that my feelings are wrong and you more then like do not return them. "Please just say something...anything just to stop me blathering on. Oh tell me to shurt up something please." tears rim my eyes as I pleads with you. Practically begging for attention.

Feeling very exposed at your confession, I pull you close to me, and give you a soft kiss.  "Liliana, you do not need to shut up, I am just a much older man and am not comfortable in this situation. If you truly someday feel strongly about me, then maybe we can discuss it further.  But right now, I do not want to feel like a kidnapper."  I give you a smile and stroke your hair, letting my hand fall to your shoulder and pullng you close.

Snapespersephone

"you are in no way a kidnapper you saved me when you did not have to and turned me when you though I might die. That is not the actions of a kidnapper. That is the actions of a good and noble man." Pulls your face down and gives you a kiss of my own a little harder then I should in my excitement.

I let the kiss happen and do nothing to stop it.  Having someone seem to care for me feels great after all I have been through over the past weeks.  I pull away, and sense that you feel comfortable with me.  I lay back and hold you there until our morning, the night starts to creep in.  "Lilian" I saw nudging you, as you seem in a far off place.  "The sun is setting, and we must hurry to the great city.  I would love to see you cleaned, fed, and bathed. I feel terrible that our first two nights together have been in a cave. Is there anything you need or want to say before we get out of here? We should stick to the beach and enter the city from beneath.  That way no guards ask questions as we enter."  I start to pack my few items into my bag, we are out of blood and must eat tonight.  I should get a knife, I say to myself...

Snapespersephone

"James can you please not tell this man anything that would prevent me from being kissed by you agian."  I say as I stand and pack up our meger camp grabbing a clean dress to change into, "did you wish to change as well?" with out thought I begin to remove all of my layers to put fresh new clothing on so I will look the proper lady I am.

"I shall have the slaver send me new clothes to our room.  He should be able to get us just about anything we like."  At the moment I am liking you quite a lot.  My mind is a blur of thoughts and emotions.  You are slowly getting dressed allowing me to take you in for a bit.  You lift your head and give me a knowing smile. I turn away and adjust my bag.  "Come now, lets go find our entrance to the great city of Manak, and hopefully a new life for the two of us."  We make our way out of the cave slowly, pausing to make sure we are alone.  Once on the beach we can smell hounds and men off in the distance, luckily away from the city.  The smells coming from the city are a whole other thing a together.  Spices, trash, humans, salt water, fish, all come together and excite our senses.  We look at each other with wide and and dart of laughing down the beach.   We feel free for once and dance all the way to the great walls.  The walls surrounding the city are 100 feet tall and painted a deep blue to match the sea.  From afar the city almost disappears into the water.  Searching around we come to a drainage ditch leading under the roads within the walls.  I look at you "I hope this is the last we have to get ourselves dirty for a while.  But somehow I feel we are destined to get in trouble often. " I wink and we duck our heads and enter the tunnels.  After a few hundred yards we stop at a ladder leading upwards.  "Are you ready?'

Snapespersephone

"I am not climbing ahead of you in a dress James. It would not be at all proper." Motions for you to start climbing and then climbs after him.

I smile. "You sure? I could give you boost if you need one and make sure you don't fall."  A little flirting never hurt anyone I thought.  I grab onto the ladder and make my way up, slowly and quietly I crack the cover and look around.  A few people down the road walking away and no other feet to be heard.  I look down and motion you to hurry and follow.  We plant our feet on the street and quickly make our way to the city center to the inn where I knew the old man was last known to be working from.  When the old man is on solid ground, he likes to stay holed up with whores in a nice hotel and run his business for a while.  Then its back to the sea and far off lands for slaves.  Once we are in the bustling city center I slow our walk to not look suspicious and let you take it all in.  "Beautiful isn't it? We can take our time if you like. Maybe trade some jewels for something if you want."  I let your eyes wander, and slyly take you by the hand to walk the amazing city.

I look around and a pet store catches my eye "oh look over," I point to a rather sad looking puppy. "Isn't he ardorable?" my looking is not lost on a passing male who approaches me with a smile.
"Oh my dear he is sad from lack of a beautiful young lady like you to pet and love him." he offers me a saucy wink and offers his arm. "Now if your Father will but let you go we can get a closer look at the little scamp."

"Actually she is my bride." I answer so quickly it takes me by surprise as well.  The man gives me a sly look, "Oh, pardon me, I see the old man has fine taste in women.  Now make your bride happy and give her a puppy." He gives me an evil grin.  I look at you.  "I must admit it is a nice little thing, but maybe after we get settled.  I think we have enough trouble caring for ourselves right now." I take you by the hand and walk you away.  "Sorry about the bride thing, I am not sure what took over me.  Guess the kiss and the cuddling.. I don't know.  Do you have to have the puppy?"  I know deep down if you say yes I cannot deny you, your face is too sweet and I would hate to think that there were no more kisses in my future.

Snapespersephone

I look all starry eyed up at you actually give quite a bit a credence to the idea that I am in fact your bride and shake my head. "No I just wanted to scratch his furry ears, but I am sure once we ares settled James we will be able to find a puppy that is as good if not better then that one. Now kiss me so the nice man stops staring at me like that. He is kind of creeping me out."

"Gladly" I grab you with a flourish and kiss you like new lovers would.  The old man gives a hoot, and we take off walking.  Both of us silent, thinking about the kiss and how fast we have come together.  We smile like school children.  After a few moments of walking, we come to a large inn, with two well dressed guards outside the doors.  The ornate sign above the door say, Welcome to the Inn of Aleswell.  "This is us."  I grab you by the arm, puff up my chest and walk up to the doors like we own the place.  The larger of the guard stops us and looks at my raggedy clothes, and your ladies dress. "She's more than welcome, but sir, get a bath and come back."  I step a bit closer to the man and look deep into his eyes menacingly "We were attacked on the road, I did not have a change of clothes, and I bought my young bride here the finest dress as soon as we reached the city, We want hot baths and a room"  While staring at the man, I had reached into your bag and grabbed a small bit of money.  I slid it into his hand, knowing it was more than he made in a week and walk through the door.   

Snapespersephone

Clings to your arm like a nervous new bride would and smiles shyly as we walk through the inn. I also take my time to look around the room before whispering barely audibly, "we are not going to eat here right? I don't think it would be very wise." As we walk some of the less desirable inhabitants look me over hungrily making me cling even harder to your arm. "James are you sure your friend is here?"

"Oh I am sure, I can already smell him.  It's weird, I have not seen the man in close to 20 years, but I remember his smell.  We have the money right now, and are just off the road.  I saw we get a room, have some food and hot water brought to us, and relax, away from the prying eyes.  I will have to barman put in a note to Gandos the slaver and ask to see him tomorrow evening.  However, I assume he will call on me as soon as he receives the letter."  I hold you close and give a few people a dark look, my eyes must have acutally burned red because they each looked away quickly.  I reach into your bag once again, and pay for a large room, hot water which I learned is pumped into the room by a two poor kids out back, and raw meat and wine.  The barman doesn't flinch at the order of raw meat, so I ask for a glass of cows blood.  He gives me a small nod and I pay him handsomely.  A good innkeeper knows how to keep things quiet, and provide a man with anything he desires.  Knowing that Gandos is staying here, I feel confident this man is quiet.  He hands over a large brass key, and we head up the stairs..

We soon come to stand in front of a large door which after it is unlocked opens into a very ornately decorated bedroom with a tub already waiting by the fire. As I take stock of where we are to live for at least the next few days a lad of about 16 comes in hefting two steaming buckets an making cow eyes at me. He takes no notice of you as he fills the bath and turns to me with a smile, "would you be needing help with your bath miss? I can run down and grab a pitcher to wash your hair with." he smiles hopefully at me as his eyes travel over my small frame.

"I think the lady can handle herself just fine." I give the boy a stern look and he hurries on his way.  "Well I am sure you would like some privacy to bathe in.  I will step into the bedroom while you bathe. Let me know if you need anything."  I walk off wishing I could just jump in that hot water with you.  I close the door, but leave it open a crack so I can still hear what is happening in the room. I dump our bags out on the bed and take stock of the money and jewels we have left..

Snapespersephone

I step into the tub and then come to the startling conclusion that I can not actually bath myself in the small tub. "Uh James if it is not a bother do you think you could come help me? I can't seem to be able to reach everything i need." I then sit in the tub letting my hair act as a curtain for my modesty.

Startled, I come slowly into the room.  Steam rises from the tub, and your long curls fall over your chest.  I try not to stare, and ask what you need.  You smile, and point over to a bar of soap and scrubbing brush.  I bring them over to you, and am about to hand them over when I decided to take a different approach.  "Sit forward." You adjust in the tub, and I can see your long exposed back.  I get the soap and brush and start to massage your back and scrub away the grime of the road.  I massage your shoulders and use a rag to wet your dusty hair.  Wanting to clean more of you, but  not wanting to push things to far, I hand you the rag and soap, and with a wink say "Maybe you should finish the rest."  Then head back to the bedroom to get our things in order and wait for my bath.  Before entering the room, I look back and catch a glimpse of your bare side, as you bathe yourself
