Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kael had heard movement and when he turned off the shower he heard Eve's voice and sighed. He dried himself off and wrapped a towel around himself trying to be modest but knowing he still needed to take care of eve, once in his bedroom he saw her staring away from him and he chuxkled saying "no worries Eve i don't bite" he said walking over to her and feeling her forehead with his hand. Her body overall had recovered but she was still weak from the exertion and her muscles were still shot from it as well, he pit his arm around her waist and helped her up and when she protested he said "i am only going to bring you to the bathroom, my shower is diluted with a special mixture so i can clean myself but it had the added effect of relaxing the muscles and reapiring the nerve damage you did to your body" he said as he brought her into the shower and once there he let her walk on her own. Kael turned around and in a drawer in his sink and pulled out what loked like a bar of soap, "this has a special plant in it that should revitalize you so you can at least walk on your own but i would suggest against attacking people or using your powers as it wont completly heal you" he said bowing his head and walking out. He called one of his guards and said "go fetch elvira, tell her she can come see her friend and to bring some of ny sisters clothes for her" he said as he saw the guard run off. Kael walked into his closet and began to change himself until a box fell on the geound and he looked at it, he sighed and picked it up opening it to show a beautiful ruby braclet with the inscrption on it "may my love for you always burn brighter than your scarlet eyes" with a note reading "Elvira". Kael closed the box and walked out to the bedroom and put on some new pants and began to make the bed which Eve had so spectacularly messed up.

Saraphina followed Elvira out of Kael's office after he order them to Elvira's old bedroom at Nai-rah Palace. They were being escorted by the palace guards which made her feel like a child. Sarah was use to being the one doing the escorting and not being the escorted. As they walked in silence she wondered about that girl Tiggs and if she be alright. The poor child looked dramatized from whatever was displayed in Kael's office before Kaitlyn and Saraphina could intervene. But, that woman... Eve...

When they came to Elvira's old room Saraphina shook her head as one of the guards was about to invite himself into Elvira's room. "Wrong move," she thought. Sarah then took a step forward and eyed the two men in her own threatening glare. "Never invite yourself into a lady's room without permission," she tsk the boys. Obviously they still needed training on how to do their job. "Don't worry boys I'll take good care of Lady Elvira," she mocked them before closing the door behind her while Elvira spoke. Saraphina was hoping for an explanation for what happened in the other room but Elvira spoke about the other woman instead. Eve.

When the words "...Gabriel's love," was spoke it felt as if someone struck a needle into Saraphina's heart. As if she had to state that but whatever, Saraphina listened on. While Elvira spoke Saraphina kept herself busy by pouring a pitcher of luke warm lavender scented water into a bowl, took a wash clothe and dipped it into the water. She didn't know why she was doing this but she was told to look after Elvira. Gabriel trusted her with an important piece to his heart, his sister. But, for his preciouses sister as some would put it to keep Gabriel waiting about the arrival of Eve seemed cruel but Sarah had no problems with keep secrets. She has to hide her own away from Gabriel. If Sarah were any other woman then she would have use this piece of information to her advantage but, that would also be cruel.

Sarah then handed Elvira the wash clothe, "Here, you look like a mess." She added a slight playful smirk. "As for the secret you ask of me to keep I shall not say a word to your brother about his returned lover for it is not mine to tell," she said. She just didn't understand why keep it a secret. Surely Gabriel would throw his arms around Eve at first sight by the way he cried when he had received the letter.

Elvira sat down on the bed, her mind swirled with mixed emotions; fear, loss, anger, longing. She was so confused, she was terrified though. What happened between her and Kael was something she couldn't believe he would try to do. He tried to forcibly imprint with her. Make her sired to him. Elvira would be trapped, no where to run if she was sired to Kael. She would have to listen to him, no matter what. She physically shivered at the thought. That was when Saraphina said "Here, you look like a mess." Elvira took the clothe from her and gave an small smile. "As for the secret you ask of me to keep, I shall not sat a word to your brother about his returned lover for it is not mine to tell." She smiled at Saraphina once again, "Thank you." She wiped her face up, she looked like a mess for sure. She was pinned to a wall and nearly was sired. There was something pulling her to tell Sara what had happened in her absence, but that was when a guard knocked on the door and cracked it enough to poke his head through. "Lady Elvira, Kael has requested your presence." Her brows furrowed at the sound of his name "Fantastic," she said sarcastically. "I'll be there shortly." To that, the guard retreated and his head disappeared.

Elvira looked to Saraphina and sighed. "Oh goody, the Lord wishes to see me.... I would like you to come and stand outside of the room. If you hear anything that sounds like trouble I want you to come in." She stood up in front of her Kiran and grabbed her forearm in respect. "Thank you for accompanying me to Nai-rah and I do apologize for the scene you had witnessed. Come, we must be on our way." Elvira dropped Sara's arm and made her way out the quarters. As they walked down the corridors of the castle, Elvira was silent. Her mind kept rewinding over and over to where Kael had her pinned and Eve crashing through the window. It was all starting to blur. She began o feel panicked, but before she knew they were in front of Kael's door. The door opened, Kael stood there, in the door way. She looked away from him. "She is in the bath recovering, you may go see her, and make sure she takes those medicines for a week until she fully recovers" All she did was nod and he made his way passed her. As Elvira stepped in he shut the door behind her. Leaving Saraphina outside, guarding.

She could hear the water running in the bathing room, she looked around Kael's room. It was just as she remembered, it wasn't all gussied-up like a King, but it was simple. It was Kael. She walked towards the bed and sat at the end of it and sighed. "What have we got ourselves into Kael?" she whispered softly as she ran her hand across the throw blanket that was placed at the end of the bed. She closed her eyes and began to think about the time her and Kael spent together. The walls were nearly bare, there was a small portrait on the far side of the room, only seen if you actually looked and stared at the side of the room. She got up and walked over to the small picture. She caught her breathe, it was a portrait of her and Kael. Her eyes began to water, she quickly turned away and took a deep breath. Why does he still have this? she asked herself. She kind of understood, she still had her portrait of them, but in her chest at the end of her bed. It wasn't visible for anyone to see. That was when a little glimmer of metal caught her eye. There was a box on the floor of his closet, she listened into the bathroom to make sure Eve was still showering, then made her way over to the closet. Opening the doors, she looked down to see a box with a ruby bracelet inside, with an inscription that read “Elvira” followed with a piece of paper with her name on it as well. She picked everything up and walked back to the bed, placing everything down to read the note.

It read:
“May my love for you always burn brighter than your scarlet eyes"

She stood there and just looked at the note and the bracelet. This was for me? She asked herself. “Oh Kael…” she whispered. With a sad sigh, she put the bracelet back in it’s box and placed it back in his closet with the note. She got herself together and walked into the bathroom where Eve was.
“How are you doing?” she asked Eve, hoping she was better and not on a rampage still.

"I dropped the soap..."

Eve was fairly relaxed in the tub. She turned her head to look at Elvira with a smile. Her eyes still had a tinge of red on the rim of them but had otherwise returned to normal. She still could feel the temperature of the water and had no clue as to it's warmth or chill. Inside she was shaken as her memories were not 100% She could only imagine the mess she had made. How was she going to control this.... monster within her. So much was whirling through her head it was hard to focus. As her friend came close the scent of someone else hit Eve's nose. Cocking an eyebrow at the woman as her nose twitched she gave an odd look and a presumptuous tone.

"I thought you didn't care for the lass?"

Rolling her eyes with a giggle Eve stretched in the tub completely at ease with Elvira near her. Whatever Kael used in his water was doing wonders for her recovery. While she wouldn't try striding across the hall as of yet she was feeling better and better. But it was on to more serious matters. As her friend settled down Eve's eyes were waiting to meet with hers. As she asked her first question the red rim flexed as if it wanted to spread through her eye then receded to the edges again.

"How badly did he hurt you? Is there a mark? I dont think I can even calm Gabe if he left any. Elie.... what is going on here? Seriously though. You still love him. Even with what he did, he still loves you from what I gathered. Both your emotions are so high and tight around each other it's like drinking bad wine. Without trying to kill one another, or me killing trying to kill him, talk this crap out. If all it took was some hashing out with your brother to be with him.... you know I wouldn't let that stop me. So why is it you?"

Eve had no idea what Kael had done as she barged in through the window after that little tidbit had been shared. But she still couldn't get Kaels face out of her head. She knew something was up. He was not the type to give up so easily. This girl talk was something for the record books.

With Duke snuggled against her on the couch, Rosette felt her eyes began to droop. The book was wonderful, but it had just been a long day for her. Despite what the rumours were, even vampires had to sleep. A final wave of comfort took over her body, as she drifted off into the dream world.

Hair like fire. Eyes that could pierce her mind like a dagger. She expected the voice to be harsh on her ears, grating, and terrifying. Instead it sounded like a melody, softly singing its way through her mind. Pulling her away from herself. It was easy to forget the danger that lurked behind such sweet beauty. The woman stood before them for a reason. While Rosette was only a pawn in her games, she knew that the people she was entrusted to protect were in danger.

Flames swirled again, the room was covered in white. At first she thought it was ash from the woman's burning hair, but it was not. Soft fabrics, floating lights, and white rose petals littered the floor. The woman's hair was growing, and everyone was becoming entangled in its destructive beauty. Its grip burned her skin. Rosette was helpless to watch as they wrapped themselves around her throat...

Duke was pulling on her arm, his teeth barely making a dent. Gently he was pulling her away. Rosette looked over, realizing that she had no idea where in the castle she was. She must have been wandering during her vision. Several courtiers stood a ways away whispering, and pointing. Rosette had broken out into a sweat, she was shaking in the same terror that had gripped her during her vision. She reached a hand out to Duke, steadying herself against his confidant frame. The vision had been clear, it had been terrifying. If anyone knew there would be a panic.
