They are a few miles from Fargo, where they plan on stopping and staying in a hotel for the night, when suddenly Kylie's gums start aching and her eyes turn to their bright golden color. She needs to feed before the blood-lust sets in from going without for too long, and she turns into a blood-raged monster. She under-calculated how much she would need and shorted herself when they were back in Wyoming. She pulls off at the next exit three miles from Fargo and calls Vega.
" Hello?"
" Vega. It's me Kylie. I need you. Everything hurts." She groans out.
" Where are you?"
" A few miles—" Hiss. is all that is answered. He taps into her minds eye looking though her eyes. Crap. She hasn't fed. He gets the location of where she is and teleports there. Once he is there he runs up to the car and rips the door off its hinges. Biting into his wrist he opens himself up for her and pushes his wrist upto her lips. Kylie slaps his hand out of the way and lunges for his throat, sinking her fangs into his jugular and wrapping her legs around his waist securing her hold on him.
Connecting them, even if only partly; as they have to have s*x to complete the bond and he has to mark her. For now she marked him. Giving a silent statement that she accepts him as her beloved. After Kylie took her fill of his chocolate and cinnamon blood, she had realized she had been really retreating into her self after the discovery they are mates, and the overwhelming feeling that she was unworthy really did not help her any.
She is starting to relax a little when Vega feels her start to hesitate.
" You don't belong here." He said not romancing but stating truth. Cupping her face in his palm. " You are far too extraordinary for the life dealt to you beforehand, Kylie I believe you have felt it for some time. I think you have known it all along. One day it will all come together and make sense to you, why you were given such a role to play in your own movie. Then you will finally understand your future, and your future will be more than it is now. Maybe I can help you to find your future and live it together." Vega looks at Kylie with such intensity she falls victim to his soul grabbing eyes and kisses him deeply.
" I will live with you...but my friends have to come also, we're a package deal. You also have to be willing to give me the freedom of going to Harvard and finish my degree." Vega smiles and agrees to her terms, with a condition of his own. His condition being she lives with him while she studies in fashion design and also learns to control herself and her powers with him at the mansion.
" Okay, it's settled then. I am just going to go let them know the plan the plan and...where are we moving to? So I can tell Adriana and Tyler along with update my registration."
" No worries my love. I live in Boston, I recently acquired some properties there. So I would say I live close enough to Cambridge for you to attend Harvard in person if you wanted to, or you could go to their night classes they offer. All you would need to do is wear contact to hide your eye color. And then you could go to the classes in the day and get all your credits including your fabrics class."
Hearing him say this made her the happiest person in the world. He's willing to move mountains for her.
" Addie! Tyler! I got great news. We are moving into a mansion with lots of acreage for you to run with Masonite a.k.a ' Mako' and Gabby. This nice man here is going to help us. Well more me. But I'm not going without you guy's. Isn't that great guy's."
Adriana and Tyler are just nodding. Not sure if they can trust this new man who seems to keep popping up when's the time is right. They are also very unsure of the situation. They are about to find out if the trust should be given or not.
Agreeing to have her friends come along, was the only way I could get her to come with me. And now that she is, my duty to her just begins. I just hope she doesn't flee again.
King Vega teleports all of them to his property in Boston Massachusetts, not far from Cambridge.
" This place is amazing", they all say in unison.
Lush green grass, as far as the eye can see. A beautiful Victorian Mansion with black steel gates. A long drive canopied by cherry blossom trees, and a natural spring in the back leading to a georgious garden of roses. The roses were black and look like they had been kissed softly by a deep shade of red highlighting the blackness of each petal. Draconian roses. Her favorite. Powerful aromas of cinnamon with hints of coconut and the sea. She smiled knowing it is rare that anyone know of this rose species. There was a white gazebo in the center of the rose garden. Vega led them in side and took them to their rooms.
" Adriana, This is yours and Tyler's room. I know you two are mates, so there is no need to separate you."
" Thank you sir." They get ready to close the door but Vega stops them.
" Please. Just call me Vega, there's no need for formalities when your Kylies friends." They just nod and say goodnight and thank him for the hospitality.
" Kylie if you would follow me." He led her to his room and gave her a tour of the bedroom. His be was a huge four poster bed with a canopy with red netting and gold satin sheets, like an Egyptian Pharoah would have.
" Why don't you and your friends get some rest and I will give you a tour of the house tomorrow after taking you to get what you need for your classes and getting you registered. You could also bring your friends so they could also get things they need. I am paying for everything so don't worry about anything. Also I believe you need to tell them about us being mates, maybe they would trust me a little more with you."
" That would be awesome to do tomorrow....your right though I do need to tell them. I have watched them be a little cold towards you, but you did deserve it...you could have been straight with me in the beginning instead of awakening me and then just leaving expecting me not to remember you...like I get why you did it but you should have let me make that choice. That is the whole reason I didn't trust you. I still don't...I mean I don't completely trust you yet. In time I might though. I will tell them about us tonight, and about the shopping trip. Oh and before I forget....you better keep your hands to yourself ." She winks at him as she turns around and slips out the door. Walking to Adriana's room down the hall, she knocks on the door before walking in just so she don't see anything she's not supposed to. She talks to them about everything, and at first Adriana was fuming mad that she would number one, not tell her. And two, run away from her mate. After a while of her ranting at her for keeping secrets, she gives her a hug and a sisterly glare making Kylie to promise to talk more in the morning. Kylie returns to her room changing into a red silk teddy and climbs up on the bed next to Vega really making it hard for him to keep his promise to not touch her tonight. She was torturing him and she new it. She drifts off into a dreamless sleep.
