Draven sat in his black leather chair at his dark mahogany desk, he took note of his brother sitting in the dark leather couch he had set up in his office. His mini bar was stocked with alcohol since he knew this meeting was either going to go two ways, his brother beating the f**k out of him, or them having a few drinks and settling old scores. Old scores, mainly ones that his brother was settling for his father. Draven and his father never saw eye to eye, he wanted to live the life he created, not the path that his father tried to pave for him.
"Draven, you must tell me why you have been ignoring our father" The sound of his brothers voice made him cringe a bit. They never got along as children, he sure as s**t wasnt going to try now.
"Because Father only cares about two things, himself and his reputation." Draven replied all to casually as he took a sip of his rye. He heard his little mates foot steps as she walked closer to the door, it was apparent that Quinton had picked up on it to since he smirked and walked to the door, opening it for her.
Quinton smirked seeing the young human infront of him, of course his brothers mate would be human. Suited him. "Hello Beautiful" He winked.
Blaire blushed since she had no idea what to think right now, she looked over his shoulder at Draven who had nodded to her, which she knew he was inviting her in. She looked at his brother again. "Hello...." She watched as he side stepped to allow her into the office, she bit her lip, thanked him and walked over to Draven. yes, she could feel his brothers eyes on her and it was making her a bit uncomfortable. "Come sit over here love" She watched as Draven opened his arms for her to join him in his seat. She made her way over and squeaked slightly when he pulled her so she was sitting bridal style in his lap.
Draven wrapped his arms around her waist and looked towards his brother again. "Really Brother, why are you here, usually you tell father to go f**k himself, not make house calls for him"
Quinton walked back to the chair infront of his brothers desk and shrugged. "Because i havent seen you i almost fifty years. Im assuming your little human knows what you are since i can smell you on her" He paused before running his hand down his face. "which means brother you need to turn her, she wont be able to live as a human with you. Not with the hunters after our species, let alone other demons" he sighed and leaned back in the chair.
Blaire arched her brow when his brother had told them she couldnt live as a human, she sighed and leaned into Draven more. "So, me being human is essentially more dangerous then being one of you?" She watched as Quinton nodded and felt Draven stiffen. Blaire sighed since she wasn’t to sure if she wanted to be immortal. The thought of it scared her, what if she wasn’t good at it? Would Draven tire of her after 50 years?. All these thoughts were going through her head right now. Of course the sound of his brother and Draven arguing broke her out of her trans.
“You realize I can protect her as is right? Just because you and father don’t see humans as a good mate doesn’t mean I follow your shoes” Draven growled, he pulled Blaire into him a bit more.
Quinton shrugged and ran his hand down his face “there is nothing wrong with having a human as a mate jackass, the problems are self control, s*x, pregnancy, the fact she can die from pretty much anything”
Blaire blinked “demons can pro-create with humans?”
Quinton looked at her and smirked, his eyes flashing between his and his demons “oh yes little one, most of the time you have demons who care less of humans and use them as breeders”
“Enough Quinn!” Draven snarled “I don’t need you filling her head with this s**t. This is the reason I don’t f*****g talk to you or anyone else in our f****d up family. If you keep this up, I swear to god I will disembowel you and watch you choke on your own intestines”
Quinton smirked, un phased by his brothers threats. “Oh little brother there is much for you to learn. However I need to go, still on duty and I can’t leave the human detectives alone for to long. They always seem to get into some sort of trouble”
He looked at his brother and his mate, he couldn’t help but smirk again. “I wish you the best of luck brother” Quinton turned to Blaire and winked “welcome to the family. I see potential in you. Usually I would swoop in and try to steal you from this asshat, however I won’t. Your a good fit” he chuckled at the sound of his brothers snarl before he got up. “Draven. Blaire.” He gave them a nod before he teleported out of his office.
Draven sat there with Blaire, he ran his free hand through his hair. “I’m sorry about him love. Ever since we were 16, we’ve been each others rivals.”
Blaire looked up at him and leaned up to kiss his jaw. “It’s okay, I’m sure even your brother has a good side to him” she rested her head against his chest. “Why did we have to dress formally for his visit?”
Draven kissed her head and leaned back in his chair. “My brother has certain tastes. Which goes from the bedroom to work attire. He becomes a royal jackass if we’re not dressed to please. I don’t think I’ve ever seen my brother in sweats.” He paused “as for his tastes in the bedroom, I only know because when we all lived at home, I stumbled across his box of items. He likes control, he prefers his woman tied up”
Blaire made a face and shook her head “I’ll never understand the b**m world, but I guess everyone has their own tastes”
Draven nodded and kissed her head before picking her up “yes, and one day I will explain why he and I don’t get along but for now I’d rather not, I don’t need you worrying to much about it” he carried her to their room and laid her on the bed. He smirked and crawled over top of her, he kissed her neck and grinned when she wrapped her legs around his waist. It wasn’t long before they were both naked and lost in another moment of passion.
