Ruben woke the next morning to find a gorgeous blond woman in his bed, his arms wrapped around her and her naked body pressed up against his. He smiled to himself and delicately worked his arm free from underneath her and propped up on his elbow. He looked down at her sleeping face and carefully brushed a couple of stray strands of hair away. What have you done to me, demon? He muttered to himself as he stared at her. He knew exactly what she had done and he knew it the moment he had first seen her in a bar a week ago. He was in love with her. It was extremely rare for vampires to find soul mates, even rarer for that soul mate to not be a vampire, but then he wasn’t full vampire either, so who knew how these things worked. All he knew was that he was inexplicably drawn to her, like a moth to a flame. He leant down and gently kissed her lips, slowly and lingering for just a moment until her eyes flickered open. He leaned back on his elbow and smiled at her. “Good morning, gorgeous gi

“We don’t really match.” Kat said looking in the mirror in the bathroom at her new clothes as she combed her hair through with Ruben’s comb.Ruben came up behind her and put his hands on her shoulders as his thumbs brushed the back of her neck, easily looking over her head into the mirror at their reflection. “You think we should match? That’s too cute…” Ruben chuckled sexily.“Not matchy-match!” Kat growled. “But an expensive three piece suit doesn’t really go with leather pants and jacket, now does it, no matter how expensive and designer this outfit looks?”“You think we should have a more cohesive look?” Ruben looked a little stunned. “A united front?”Kat looked away from the mirror and folded her arms, huffing. “Something like that.”Ruben let go of Kat’s shoulders and closed his eyes for a moment. As he opened them Kat saw

They discussed business for the next hour as Kat curled up and fell asleep listening to music. Ruben, the others noticed, kept his arm over her quite protectively as she had turned inwards to face the couch her face nestled into his hip. His arm he had lowered to rest lightly in the curve of her waist, his hand on her back. Vlad took his phone out and took a photo. Ruben looked at him with an eyebrow raised.“Too cute.” Vlad shrugged. “So…she’s definitely the one?”Ruben smiled that ever present smirk. “Yes, I believe so.”“God damn.” Mikhail grumbled. “I really didn’t think Lord Ruben Luisetti would ever be the first one of us to fall.”Ruben laughed. “No, I always thought it would be Vlad…”“Me?” Vlad looked startled for a moment. “Hardly, how can I find a mate, I don’t even swing that way…”“Exactly

 When he got there Kat was standing outside in the sun looking back at the front entrance while Vlad was standing just inside with the door only slightly ajar, squinting out at her. His car was in the driveway behind Kat. She turned and opened the back door of the car then turned back and leaned on the side of the car and closed her eyes, tucking her chin, lowering her head.The shadows up under the eaves of the front of the house slowly crept out further and further into the drive way like a black flood they seemed to consume everything in their path until they reached Kat’s feet. The shadows suddenly coalesced becoming like thick syrup and formed walls and a roof creating a tunnel of blackness from the front door to the car door.Kat opened her eyes which were glowing with an intense green light and grinned. Folding her arms smugly and crossing her feet.“I think that’s your cue, Vlad.” Ruben said, barely able to hide the a

 Once it was dusk Vladimir arrived back. He swooped Kat into his arms in an extravagant embrace.“Hello gorgeous, how have you been?”“Asleep mostly…”Ruben chuckled as he stood behind her. It wasn’t entirely true, they had slept a few hours of the afternoon after he had finished his paperwork and they had enjoyed each others bodies again.                                                      “Come this way, Vlad…” Ruben said as Kat watched them step away, Ruben turned, curious, raising an eyebrow at her when she didn’t look like she was going to follow.“I’m hungry.” Kat said simply, with a deadpan

Ruben escorted Kat out and slowly followed along behind the warlocks, seeing them off politely before turning and looking at Kat who was yawning and stretching.“God, I’m tired…” She breathed.Ruben regarded her a moment before he clicked his fingers up in the air.“My Lord?” A young female maid came up and bowed respectfully at Ruben.Ruben smiled at her and turned to Kat. “Follow her.”Kat frowned and folded her arms. “Why?” She turned to look at the young woman standing there nervously, her eyes downcast.“You said you were tired…she will show you to your room so you can have a nap.”“Oh…” Kat said a little surprised and a lot disappointed.“What?” Ruben asked amused, tilting his head at her. “You thought you could sleep in my bed again?”Kat looked up at him with a small frown. “Yeah&hellip

It had been two days and no word from Scott of his whereabouts…which was fine by Kat as she got to stay by Ruben’s side.Yet this evening started with the dusk arrival of more drama…As Mikhail’s car came to a stop outside the mansion he barrelled out of it and straight up to Ruben as he waited cordially within the front entrance after being informed of Mikhail’s arrival.“We need to talk, now!” Mikhail hissed as he flicked a glance at Kat standing off to the left, before stalking off.Ruben rolled his eyes. “Christ…” He muttered in a breath.“What is it?” Kat asked, only slightly curious.Ruben looked at her. “He has been messaging me telling me all sorts of shit that he had been finding out about Demons…he really has it in for you.”“Why me?” Kat scowled with a faint pout.Ruben shrugged. “Everything is black and wh

Mikhail raised his hands in mock surrender. “It wasn’t me…”   “Kat!? What the hell?” Ruben asked, accusatory. “Why would you touch him?”“I was trying to…I meant to kick his sorry ass!” Kat was shaking her head trying to clear the fog that had descended in it. Her mouth was dry and her thoughts were full of Mikhail and his smouldering amber eyes, the feel of his chest under her fingers. “What the hell just happened to me?” Kat looked up at Mikhail.He was standing with his arms folded grinning smugly at her. He tilted his head slightly as their eyes met.Why did she suddenly feel giddy looking at him, he was so damn fine…no…what?“Damn it, Kat! I told you to keep away from him!” Ruben growled, frustrated as he took her by the shoulders roughly making her look at him.“I was trying to hurt him…he was pissing me off

Kat knocked on the door. “Ruben…now is not the time to sulk in the bathroom.”“I think it is…” He leant his head back against the door, resting his forearms on his knees as he sighed.“I have questions…” Kat’s voice sounded irritated.“Like?” Ruben asked, faintly amused.“Oh? We doing this through the door?” Kat’s sarcasm was clear to his ears.“For now.” He chuckled, there was something infinitely attractive about her feisty attitude.“Mature…” She sneered. “Ruben…will I still be attracted to him after…?”Kat heard Ruben’s menacing growl through the door. “Yes, if you look at him.”“Huh…” She pondered.“What?” He growled deeper.“It’s weird…” She murmured half to herself.“Weird?

The next day noted the fourth day Kat was with Ruben in his mansion and still no sign of Scott showing up to claim her back. It also meant that today was the day the warlocks were due to do the ritual to summon Lord Basille.Kat had slept late as Ruben had ‘gone to work’ in his office. She had mentioned the fact that he never seemed to leave the mansion for meetings or other work related things, he had surprised her when he had confessed that was because he had put all his meetings on hold to stay with and protect her, but that did mean a lot of time on his laptop and his phone talking and emailing.After she finally rose late afternoon, she had gone to find him in his office, sitting quietly in the corner on the couch as he continued to work, the two of them just content to have the other nearby.“I’m hungry.” Kat said as she got up from her chair, stretching.“Christ…do you ever stop eating?” Ruben asked.
