Recently the construction of a new mansion shook around the wild life in a forest near the mainlands. Vampires guarded the construction while giant men, most likely Lycans, constructed the new base for the Latverious clan. The mansion is very large and towers over the land in an exterior of a rich ebony. Behind it is a labyrinth and garden with elegant sculptures and plants. The inside is rather like the Latverious castle, fitted with all the clan's colors and brilliant tapestries and emblems. The bottom level is the common room with worldly distractions like billiards and the like, as well as a sparring room to the left. Up the stairs is the armory and the chambers of the guards who spend most of their time either down stairs, or in their rooms. Above that is an entire floor for Viktor. On one side is a beautiful ball room which leads into a banquet hall and then finally is Viktor's room and office.

Jynx looked up at the enormous building and sighed.I'd kill to be filthly rich...She thought. Her plum-colored eyesglinted as the wind blew.

Stepping out front with his battalion, Viktor noted lightly the figure looking at the mansion. Taking little notice, he continued with his drills. These men would be ready for anything after the training from both he and his cousin. Taking note of the mansion itself. It did please him to know that this was his new home.
Ok men, let us take it down one more time, we need this in order to be a completely competent force. No one will stand in our way. And with what you men will know, there is nothing you will come to see as unexpected, for you will be prepared for it all!
Looking at his watch, he began running with the men.

Stepping through the portal into the mansion, Viktor headed straight for his room, walking past through the halls with brilliant tapestries, and pictures of his family. He walked into his bathroom. A luxurious room, fitted with pewter plumbing and black marble. The ambient lighting from small lamps brought a kind of warm relaxed feeling to the room. He placed her on the edge to the enormous bathtub, in which at least 5 could easily fit. and turned the nozzle on. It began spouting the hot water, filling the room with steam. He stepped out and grabbed a stack of towels and a black and red bathrobe for her. On the towels, the Latverious emblem was emblazoned on every piece. He began to pull her pant leg up and started to dress the wound. His hands were delicate but exact, so to exert minimal pain upon her.
You can let go right now. Tensing your body trying to hold it all in is only going to make it that much worse for you. Just attempt to relax and everything will be okay. After I finish dressing and cleaning the wound, I want you to take a bath and relax for a while, just let me know if you need anything. I will bring you water, wine, hard liquor.. You know, the unsophisticated stuff that everyone loves. Or anything. I will have food waiting when you come back out. Just please try to relax. I assure you that nothing will come here to hurt you. This mansion is just as well guarded as the castle itself. Enjoy. Let me know what you need.
He got up and began to walk out, making sure that he was addressing everything. He let his guards know that she was a high priority target, and that security should be doubled. Also walking back into his room, he stepped into his massive closet, and sifted through the dresses and informal woman's ware that he had. They seemed as though they would fit her figure, and she would be free to use them, seeing as though he had no need for them. He had had them for the many occasions in his life that he had entertained and had needed things for guests. So now he accumulated quite a bit of jewelry and clothing. He layed out his bedroom, within which he had a truly magnificent four-post bed, layed out in the traditional black gold and red. He would let her sleep in his bed tonight. She needed to loosen up and relax. After, he waited for her in his anteroom, sipping on a fine aged merlot...

winceing she watched him go, somewhere between laughing and curseing. a vampire was takeing care of her.. it seemed a bit odd considering most tried to kill her on sight. sighing she let herself relax, still watching the doorway carfully as she tossed her cloaths onto the counter and sank into the water. after almost an hour she stood and wraped a towel around herself, not wanting to wear the blood stained cloaths. her leg didnt hurt so much.. and it made her worry. why would a vampire care..? shakeing her hair out she made her way to the bed, pauseing and looking at the dress with a blank look. slowly a grin turned up the corner of her mouth, and she turned back to the wardrobe with an amused look. he wanted her here, he would just have to deal with it.
a few moments later she came from the bedroom barefoot, wearing a pair of his pants and a white loose shirt. of course she had needed a belt, but it hadnt been so hard to find. sighing she moved to the bath room again, looking in the morrior. i look like a pirate or something.. but it will work. leaveing the bath room she decided to look for Viktor, fallowing the hallway. she steped lightly into the anteroom, not in the least bit guilty that she had raided his cloaths. crossing her arms she leaned her hip against one of the arm chairs, saying amused. " im sure there are plenty other damsils in distress you could be saveing right now. instead you insist on helping a hunter. how odd."

Smiling briefly at her as she walked into the room, he gave a light chuckle as he saw she had donned his clothing. He watched her with great interest. As she leaned Down against the chair he stood up. A glass of wine in his hand. He held it out to her.
I guess that may be true, but there are few damsels that I may actually be drawn to like yourself.. You seem a little more comfortable, and you are walking better. Is there anything I can offer you?

raiseing an eyebrow she took the wine glass, setting it on the table next to her and dissmissing it. she turned what he said over in her mind a few times, decideing not to explore that area as of yet. " a cold beer and one ticket back to reality." her voice was tiered as she sat down, folding her legs under her and resting her chin against her hand. clearing her throat she kept her voice even, trying to sound reasonable. " as you have pointed out, my leg is better. i would hate to impose on you and your people here, and it would be safer if i were not here." stubron as she was, she had to atleast try.. no matter what he said, Raven knew better. Darius and Kema could both track her here, and it would endanger the people in the Mansion. of course.. she could always get out when he had fallen asleep, but stealth would be harder with her leg hurt.
as she thought to herself her other hand curled into the sleave of her barrowed shirt, nervously plucking at the material. she refused to admit that Viktor made her nervous, though he did not scare her.

smiling at the thought she was putting into trying to find a way out, even though, to an extent she wanted to be here as much as he wanted her to be. He decided to play along, summoning a butler to get a beer for her.
This is reality, Although I can understand why you may question the circumstances. I have absolutely no fear of the hunters in high are trying to get you. Although I seem the traditional full bellied autocratic noble, I am in fact wizened in my age, both in battle, and politics.. Lastly, I would advise that you not attempt to leave in the current time, for it will only result in you prolonging your stay and healing process.

misunderstanding what he said she stiffened, raiseing her chin and openly challengeing him as she said stubronly. " you think i couldnt get away?" riseing from her chair she stood infront of his, one hand on her hip as she poked his chest with the other. " i may not be some super powered vampire, but i can leave when i want. being cute is no excuse for being arrogant." it didnt occur to her not to get close to him, she had stoped thinking of him as 'vampire' and instead thinking of him as Viktor. it was almost amuseing to her that he thought he could keep her here if she didnt want to stay.. few things had been able to keep her still for too long, and even if she wanted to stay.. she would try to escape just to prove him wrong.

Noting the change in her tone and her closeness, Viktor smiled broadly. She was loosening up. He looked up to her, still smiling broadly.
Whatever you may wish to accomplish, by all means, please do, even if that may be to destroy my property, or even myself. I will not stop you. But understand this, think to yourself, would you be safer here, in the sanctem of Latverious, or would you be better off having escaped this place, and put on your own again, not to mention wounded. I assure you that I intend you no harm, only to see that you are well.. But your life is your own, do with it as you see fit..

" smooth talking Vik." Raven sighed, crossing her arms and looking to the side like a rebelius teenager. after a few moments of thinking to herself, she finaly murmered determindly. " i will stay until my leg is healed.. but there are a few area's i need to cover first." she held up her hand counting off on her fingers. " im only staying if i can come or go as i want. im allowed to train and explore without a guide, and my motorcycle Boo needs to be put safely out of the rain." decideing that that pretty much covered her terms she bit her lower lip, her pride not allowing her to act like a spoiled brat. to make the deal even she gritted her teeth and added. " in return i will fallow your rules, respectfuly stay out of areas you want left alone, if nessisary let you bite me, and not leave this mansion until im healed or have a good reason to do so." winceing she almost touched a hand to her neck, catching herself and rubbing her shoulder instead. " and by nessisary i mean your in real touble.. because you bite me other wise, and you Will be in trouble."

He nodded and smiled to her. He really did enjoy her company. Even though she was quite brash with him, he enjoyed speaking to her..
As you wish, my only intention is to see that you are safe and well, I would not bite you, you have my word on that. I respect your want to stay in a civilized state of humanity. My home is yours, you are welcome to stay within my room if it is to your comfort, I will stay in one of my other rooms. If you need anything at all, do not hesitate to ask. Your motorcycle is in the garage, warm and quite dry, I assure you. I am looking forward to your stay, lady Raven.

noding she brushed a stand of hair behind her ear, pauseing awkardly and clearing her throat. " i.. didnt get to thank you. about the pendent thing.." looseing her nerve she straitened, moveing to her chair again and curling up in it. laying her head on the arm rest she sighed. talking to him wasnt so hard.. thanking him on the other hand, that would take awhile. rubbing her neck she closed her eyes, saying in a much more relaxed voice. " im sorry for raiding your cloaths.. hate wearing dress's." sighing she nodded off, haveing relaxed again without realizeing it. her voice was just above a whisper as she murmered. " your alright Vik.. even if i say otherwise, dont listen ok..?" with that she was gone, breathing evenly as she slept.

Seeing her drift off, viktor smiled. She was gaining trust. He slowly got up from his place and picked her up gently so as to ensure she did not wake. He waalked her to the bed and tucked her in. Leavin a note on the bedside table. It said, whatever you may need, you have not but to ask and it will be done. This mansion is yours for as long as you wish to stay, and if you require anything from myself, I will be in my study. It was signed. He stepped out, and made sure that nothing would disturb her as she slept.
