2024-10-29 19:42:56Ruben gathered the vampires together for a war conclave…explaining to them all the situation, giving them the information he had received from Kat and planning out their next steps. He had a sneaky suspicion Kat would wait till evening before attacking, so he knew he had a little time on his side.
“First things first we need to secure Mr McGowen so he’s out of the way for whatever Kat is doing out there…” Ruben was talking to Aiden, Vlad and a couple of lesser Vampire Lords from his clan.
“I believe she intends to go after Scott’s gang while he’s not there.” Vlad input.
“Okay, makes sense she knows she can kill them if he’s not there to interfere and order her not to with the manipulation of the collar…she’ll probably find out the locations of the intended bomb attacks and then head there, so if we can get Scott we can get that information out of him and possibly head her off.&rdquo

Kat looked back on the gang pad now in flames, hearing the sounds of the people left alive inside as she trapped them in using her shadows to block any chance of escape. There was at least another fifty souls for Lord Basille…but still not enough. Some of Scott’s gang had managed to escape her, and as she had exited the large fortified warehouse she had seen a man encouraging others to run and flee. She had heard him telling people to head to the gangs other, more secret, location on Mayfair. She grinned to herself and moved off to head to that very location as the thick smoke plumed up into the sky and the distant sounds of sirens could be heard. It didn’t matter now, there was no saving those people still inside. . As she arrived at the property on Mayfair she calmly walked up to the front entrance and knocked solidly on the steel reinforced door before turning her head and smiling into the camera she knew was there. “Kat?” A voice came through at her. “Yeah, let me in.” “Wh

As Ruben got out of his car he knew this was the place on Mayfair St, it had to be because the windows were all smashed out and there were people staggering on the street covered in blood. Ruben hoped he wasn’t too late to catch her.He grabbed one man by the shirt and pulled him up off his feet to look Ruben in the eyes. The man quailed and struggled. “Christ! Not another one, what the fuck is going on?“Wait, what?” Ruben asked a little startled. “What do you mean, another one?”He listened in to the other conversations going on around him, something wasn’t right here…He heard snippets of ‘damn supernatural bastards’, ‘they’re going to kill each other’, ‘he’s going to kill her!’He turned his focus back on the human he was holding up as he spoke. “You lot, vampires…what the hell has gotten into you!?”“There’s anot

Half an hour later Kat opened her eyes and sat up startled. “Ruben, you have to turn this car around!”“No.” He knew she was going to do this.“But you don’t understand, I need to…” She sat forward on the seat to plea her case but Ruben cut her off.“I know what you were trying to do…it was wrong of you.” Ruben’s voice was deep and harsh.“Wrong?” Kat frowned a little confused.“I own this city, baby…you can’t kill people like that, it slights against me, which slights against the Royal family!”Kat chewed on her bottom lip as she thought about it. “But…”He slammed his foot on the brake and pulled sharply over to the side of the highway. He turned in his seat and settled a blazing icy stare on her.“You are with me now, Katarina…Bastetia…what the fuck ever! You cannot go against

Kat woke to Ruben gently shaking her. “We’re here.” He said as he walked off.Kat sat up and looked around. She saw Ruben talking to someone by the front door of an ultra-modern looking house, all white Rockcote and cedar wood with large tinted windows.She saw the man hand Ruben some keys and walk off into the darkness. Ruben unlocked the front door and walked inside.Wow, he must be really pissed with me, Kat thought, I was only trying to do my bloody job!Kat scowled, she had had enough of his attitude. She got out of the car and stalked like a predator into the house.As she walked through the entrance way it opened up to a huge open living area that had massive windows facing out to a deck with an infinity pool and the beach and sea beyond.“Whoa!” Kat muttered, astonished, momentarily forgetting her angst. She turned and saw Ruben standing by the large island in the kitchen area, pouring himself a whisky.

Ruben’s eyes went red as he bared his teeth at Kat, growing menacingly. “You can blame me for this all you like, Ruben…I was doing my bloody job! You’re the one who came in and turned everything upside down!” Kat yelled. “Oh, so this is all my fault?” Ruben snorted. “Yes, why couldn’t you just leave me alone!?” Kat sent tendrils of darkness towards Ruben but he grinned and swiped them away with a flick of his wrist. Kat’s eyes widened in surprise. “That’s all you got, Bastetia?” He growled as he flicked his wrist again and sent her flying backwards and hitting the side of the couch. He walked up a few steps as she clambered back to her feet. She snarled at him, her mouth full of monstrous fangs as the shadows coalesced around her. Ruben halted and squinted at the black mass in front of him. Suddenly it disappeared and the figure that stood in front of him took his breath away. She was svelte with long white blond hair that fell in gentle cascades down her back almost to her knees

In the background they could hear voices calling out for them…Since things had gone quiet they others had obviously braved re-entry and were now searching the wrecked living area for them. Ruben raised his head and flicked his wrist, locking the door.Just in time as Vlad knocked on it.“Ruben, Kat…are you both in there?”“Go away, Vlad.” Ruben growled as he pushed his fingers back into Kat’s warm, wet pussy. “Oh, baby…you are so wanting me…” He breathed huskily with a smug smirk.“Ruben! What the hell is going on?” Vlad yelled as he tried the door and found it locked.“Fuck off, Vlad!” He yelled back as his face hovered just over Kat’s clit, he could smell the faint musk of her sex drawing him in intoxicatingly and pulled his fingers out pushing his tongue in, swirling it around causing Kat to moan loudly, gripping his hair.Vla

When Ruben awakened, daylight was flooding in. Ruben guessed the others would all be hiding out in the other bedrooms. Good, he thought, that will give me time to clean up the destruction.He felt amazing, like he had drunk an elixir of youth.He looked down on the little delectable demon in his arms and smiled. Always one for surprises…her blood sang in his veins giving him vitality he hadn’t felt for centuries.He felt so much better now she was his. He didn’t care about what was going on in the city right now. He was completely enthralled by her…his underlings could sort it out, he had left them enough instructions. He had every faith in them, right now his attention was his beloveds to have completely.“Kat…” He whispered in her ear. “Wake up, sweet girl.”Her eyes fluttered open and he noticed how long her silver eyelashes were as she looked up endearingly sleepy through them. “Do
The Demon Contract 33
As Ruben walked into the bedroom with the full intent to questioning Kat regarding her blood every thought in his head completely disappeared the instant his eyes fell upon her and he saw her dancing and jumping around on the bed, naked except for the silk robe that had come untied, twirling and billowing out behind her. She had the buds in her ears and the I-pod in her hand. She hadn’t seen him as her eyes were closed, so he quickly shut and locked the door and stalked predatory like with slow cautious steps towards the bed.He got about halfway until Kat opened her eyes and noticed him. She froze when she saw the dark glint in his eyes, then smiled wickedly and slowly took the buds out of her ears and dropped the I-Pod on the bed at her feet.Oh, Ruben thought, she’s going to play hard to get, excellent.As he dived for her feet she laughed and jumped off the bed, heading for the bathroom. He used his speed ability to head her off and as she change

Kat felt faint and sleepy all of a sudden, collapsing to her knees before slumping to the ground, closing her eyes on the sight of Ruben and Michael within the golden column of light. She called out his name softly before falling into a deep sleep as she was enveloped within the same golden light, appearing to grow transparent before she vanished from the Demon King’s throne room completely just as the golden column of light, Ruben and Michael also vanished. . When she awoke she found herself lying in a meadow on the side of a mountain capped with snow. She sat up and looked around to discover she was surrounded by these amazing snow-capped mountains. In the distance sat a great castle overlooking the valleys below with a river ambling between. Kat saw Ruben standing not too far away on the edge of a small precipice, looking out at the view, his hands casually in his pockets and his hair blowing in the gentle breeze that also blew the long grass around her. Kat stood up and walked

It was a half hour wait filled with the Demon King going about his business completely ignoring Ruben and Kat as they were ushered to the side and given seats, something to drink and eat and treated by the courtiers like honoured guests.“Ruben, what are you going to do if they do return you to the human realm?” Kat asked under her breath, hardly wanting to be caught speaking.He frowned as he looked at her. “What do you mean?”“Well, you are the proper King…won’t they want you to return to being their King if you return?”Ruben scratched his cheek and shrugged. “I suppose they will…but I don’t want it and I know you don’t want to return to that place…so I guess I’ll have to abdicate…”“Won’t that put the General’s position in jeopardy?”Ruben’s eyebrow raised as he heard her concern for the General. “Perhaps…he currently has the palace under Marshall Law…but what is it you are trying to say? You don’t want to go back to the Terran Realm?”Kat shook her head. “I would just rather be a

“However…I know the story behind Basille’s apparent desperation to flaunt the rules and decide to try and recreate a being he should have never fallen for…” The Demon King stated with a little patient smile. “Shall I tell it to you?”“Yes, please…” Kat whispered, her voice not wanting to come out of her.The Demon King grinned and lunged forward, scooping an arm around Kat’s waist and dragging her round and up onto his lap. He placed a hand on top of her head sending a calming sleepy spell over her, making her compliant and still as she dropped back against his chest and looked up at him with a dreamy smile as he patted her and rubbed her ears like a pet.Ruben lurched to his feet, his fists clenched and surrounded by a blue flame. “Let her go!”The Demon King flicked his fingers, not even looking away from Kat’s dreamy expression and Ruben was sent flying back through the hall and crashing into one of the gigantic marble pillars, dropping like a stone to the floor.He coughed blood,

The Demon King was huge and sat upon an impressively massive throne that covered the entire back wall from floor to ceiling like organ pipes in a cathedral. Ruben’s eyes narrowed as he took in the mighty beast languishing on his throne. He was clearly about twelve feet tall, long black hair fell down to his shoulders as two foot long curled black horns stuck through it on either side of his forehead. He was chiselled and cruel looking, his eyes were literally flaming, swirling with red, orange and yellow, the pupils slits, where the sclera were usually white his were black and bottomless. He was dressed in a black house coat embroidered with gold thread depicting dragons, his bare chest and astonishing abdominal muscles were displayed with arrogant pride. His black leather pants tight to his thick thighs. At his feet were two demon girls, fawning over him. They were beautiful and both had long forked tails and tiny horns. They both turned and hissed at Ruben’s approach showing their

As Ruben stepped into the private rooms at the top of a massive tower that were once occupied by Basille he looked around with distaste before looking up and gasping. “Holy shit, this is not what I expected…” The entire ceiling was see-through to the sky like a massive atrium. It was dark outside and they could see a million stars twinkling down on them. Kat hugged her arms around herself as she looked around the room with a small pout. “Even though this room was Basille’s it was my most favourite room in the whole castle.” She looked up at the sky with a whimsical smile. Folding his arms and setting his feet only a foot over the threshold Ruben frowned darkly. “As lovely as that is…why do you think I would want to stay here?” Kat turned back to regard him, her lips pursed. “Where else? This really is the best rooms in the whole dreary castle.” Ruben scowled at the rudimentary furniture and the large wooden four poster bed with a mattress that looked like it was stuffed with a mi

After tidying themselves up they walked out of the catacombs and back up into the palace. Kat startled to see a small group of vampires waiting for them, amongst them was King Adicus Luisette, now wearing his crisp uniform jacket but instead of his peaked hat he wore the simple gold crown and looking very dashing. He smiled at them as everyone else applauded politely. Kat turned her head in embarrassment to see Ruben laughing with delight. He stepped forward and started shaking hands with the people waiting as they gave him their congratulations. Kat stayed where she was not sure if she should follow him or not. A voice behind her made her spin around with shock as Ruben did the same, grinning from ear to ear. “How about a hello to your favourite childhood friend?” Vladimir was standing there in all his flouncy glory, a young noble looking man standing behind him, both dressed up to the nines with frilly shirts and outrageous velvet suits. “Vladimir!” Ruben shouted with amazement.
The Demon Contract 96
Kat was enduring the preparations of her eternal bonding with Ruben. He had left her in the charge of the two fae women from Luisette’s harem, where she had been instructed to soak in a bath full of goat’s milk in which a drop of Ruben’s blood had been added, then showered clean, her hair and makeup done.Kat was dressed in a stunning gown of black, with a corseted waist and long straight skirt. Her wealth of golden blond hair shined like real gold in the flickering candle light from the hundreds of candles that lined the crypt like room as she was led by Von Dulce down into the catacombs under the palace.She looked around the circular room, with many tunnels leading off, with a little apprehension knowing down here was where many vampire rested in long sleep. Now, including King Luisette.She turned as she heard movement and saw Ruben and Batton walk out of one such tunnel, their faces grim after having just laid King Luisette to rest.Ruben, was wearing a matching black suit, the v

They made quick work of rounding up the Lords they needed, as soon as they opened the doors to the rooms and the vampires saw the great demon as the shadows crept in behind them they quickly made their way down the halls with no great objections, their expressions grim and wary as they were herded towards their destination of the Throne room. As they all stepped in they gasped as they saw Ruben sitting upon the Throne looking very regal with the King’s robes around his shoulders and the inert body of King Alessandro Luisette lying upon the couch to one side. Ruben watched them with an eagle like stare as they were herded in and grouped together, surrounded by soldiers. General Batton stepped up the dais steps and took position to Ruben’s left as the demon cat jumped up and stood on Ruben’s right. Ruben reached out a hand and placed it on Kat’s head as she smooched it affectionately. Lord Echron stepped forward, his face livid. “What’s the meaning of all this! If you wanted the thro
The Demon Contract 94
As Ruben walked into the throne room he looked around and surprisingly saw Von Dulce sitting behind his desk, frantically scribbling something down on a piece of paper. Ruben and Batton looked at each other before Ruben coughed for Von Dulce’s attention. He looked up and paled to see both General Batton and Prince Ruben standing together. “You…” He stuttered. “You’re in on this together?” He gaped at them with fear of the unknown. Ruben gave him a reassuring smile. “Relax, we aren’t going to throw you out of office…” “You’re not?” Von Dulce gulped, a little relieved. “No…in fact we need you to help make this transition go smoothly…” Ruben looked down at the desk with a curious frown. “What are you writing?” Von Dulce gave a nervous laugh and rubbed the back of his neck. “Instructions…for whomever took over the administration of the palace…” Ruben raised an eyebrow at him. “Wait, you thought you were going to be executed or something and so diligently wrote down instructions for y
