After getting out the bath, feeling clean and fresh, Calla practically skipped out into Hylee's room that her Kindred had decided she was sharing with her. She felt a flitter of disappointment that she hadn't been able to feed whilst bathing but she intended to ask Hylee if she'd join her next time. Calla adored some of the products she found whilst washing. They were custom made and smelled clean and scentless, removing foreign scents from her body without leaving any lingering smell of their own.

Back in the room she found a new body suit in her size, though she didn't know how Hylee could of gotten one so quickly. She dressed and sat on the bed, humming softly as she waited for Hylee to return.

'Will she help us settle our scores? She'll take care of us so we hope so. We need to get rid of Xavier and the two that captured us.' her thoughts turned dark at the memory of a bullet hitting her head before she fell to black. 'We have to leave Virgil be, he acted on order of our new mother and father.' Calla quickly adopted Hylee as her fiancée/wife and took her parents as her own. She and Hylee were Kindred after all.

Hylee's room didn't have much in it. There were wall cupboards that Calla dared not look into without permission, but other than that there was only a large bed, which she was currently sat on. It was a strange thing for a Vampire to keep, considering they couldn't sleep. Calla resolved to add it to the things she wanted to know about. Her mind was wandering when Hylee walked back in, decked out in a fanciful blue dress and high heels. Calla went to stand but Hylee reappeared before her, sitting her back down by pushing her shoulders.

"Hmm. Nice and covered up." Hylee made no attempt to hide that she was checking out Calla's body and let her eyes roam free. Calla found herself lost in Hylee's eyes and became tongue tied. She raised a hand to touch Hylee's face.

'We're clean now, it should be okay?' Calla's hand moved slowly but before it could touch Hylee, the blonde grabbed her wrist and Calla found her arm completely unable to move.

"Strong." Calla mumbled as she looked at the hand holding her.

"Yes my Kindred. I'm very strong." Hylee smiled sweetly. "You tried to touch me." Calla's face became confused. Of course she tried to touch her, she loved her. Hylee's face became serious and she glared down at the young vampire. She felt like a child beneath the stare of blue and gold irises and knew she had done something to upset her angel.

"We...we are not allowed to touch?" she asked hesitantly, looking up with a hopeful gaze that her words were wrong.

"Did I give you permission?" the millennia old vampire didn't let up her glare.

"N-no." Calla shuffled her bum on the bed, feeling uncomfortable. She looked anywhere but Hylee's face as she did not want her anger directed at her, but her eyes always found their way back. Finally, Calla hung her head. "We're sorry." she spoke glumly.

"I'll let this one go, but if you want to touch me you have to earn it."

"How?" 'Aren't we already worthy?'

"If you can follow all my instructions for the next twenty four hours, I'll let you choose between two options." Hylee's smile returned. "Either I can pet and hug you for an hour, or you can do the same to me for ten minutes."

'That doesn't seem fair.' Calla frowned. 'We want to stroke and hold her for an hour too.'

"It's not debatable." Hylee said when she saw Calla's expression, knowing the small woman had the same twisted feelings she did. "And, if you fail to follow my instructions, you won't be allowed to come within five meters of me for forty eight hours." Calla's eyes bugged out a little and she wore a panicked expression. Upon seeing this, Hylee smirked.

"Let's get you dressed." Hylee hummed as she walked to a cupboard and pulled out a similar looking dress to her own. Calla went to grab it but Hylee pulled it away. "We're going to do this together." She crouched down and held it out for Calla to step into. "Come on now." she cooed. Calla stepped into the dress and Hylee slid it up her body, very slowly, as she watched how it clung to Calla's body in all the right places.

"There we go." she said as she stepped behind Calla and pulled the zip up. "Time for dinner." she smiled at the brunette and offered her arm. Calla looked at the stuck out elbow and her gaze flicked to Hylee who nodded in response. Calla giggled and took hold of her arm with with both of hers and pushed their bodies together.

Hylee had to make a conscious effort to keep her speed down as she walked to the dining room attached to Calla. Her mother, father, Virgil and Eleus were already seated and she rolled her eyes in annoyance. She didn't know why her father kept the old-looking bastard. He was weak, only at the rank of Elder and her father let him speak too casually. Sure, her Calla was only a Blood-letter, but she wasn't even a decade old. By the time her Kindred reached a century Hylee would make sure that she was a Reagent, and she expected no less as she fed her Lorde blood. Eleus though, she'd make sure to kill him when she had the chance.

Hylee pulled a chair out for Calla and sat beside her. Calla seemed saddened by the loss of contact but Hylee entwined their fingers under the table which brought a smile back to her face. Before long dinner was served in the form of beakers of blood with jars full to refill. Everyone began drinking their fill and, seeing this, Calla reached to grab her own only for her bones to crack as Hylee tightened her grip on her hand. Calla winced and looked at her Kindred whose eye twitched in anger.

"What did I say earlier?" she asked lowly whilst the other four were chatting.

"That we drink only from you." Calla responded.

"Yes. I'll let it go this time, but don't let it happen again." Calla slunk in her seat at being denied her meal and Hylee's heart softened a fraction. "Do you want a drink?"

"Please." Calla said hopefully. Hylee raised their joined hands and bit into her own wrist, letting her blood flow. She kissed the back of Calla's hand and then offered her her blood. Calla wasn't so hesitant this time and bit into the open would but refusing to release Hylee's hand.

"Mmmm." 'Ours. All ours.' Calla's response was no less intense than the first time she drank from Hylee and she moaned into the bite, sending a shiver of pleasure up Hylee's spine. She finished after a few seconds, feeling stuffed for the first time ever since she was a vampire. Between the two times she drank from Hylee, only a few hours had passed and dissolving Lorde blood would take a long time. 'So nice...we can probably drink from her once a week and stay fully sated.' she thought as she licked her lips and fangs, making sure no blood was lost. 'But it'd be nice to do it daily....'

She hummed happily as she was lost in her thoughts. It was a soothing sound for Hylee who was choosing to exercise patience with her Kindred. She knew she could throw Calla down on the table now and take her, and the brunette wouldn't refuse. But she made herself wait.And she'd drag it out, torturing herself, because the feeling of looking forward to something for the first time in millennia was exquisite.

Anticipation was important and was half the game. Hylee would let Calla grow and evolve, let her become a Reagent. Then she would indulge herself, and mark her Kindred, repeatedly, viciously. She wanted Calla to become a Reagent because only then could her body heal quick enough for the onslaught of passion that Hylee, a Lorde vampire, was sure to deliver.

Only her parents had gotten close to the depraved core of Hylee and they had no wish to go there again. And for Calla, who would be eternally bound to her, they could only feel pity.
