Deccan left Abby in Gabe’s hands and returned to his chamber. He wanted to be alone before dinner but there was already someone waiting for him when he arrived.
A young woman, no older than twenty, was sitting on his bed, her short black hair was spiked to look like a halo around her white face, her eyes were done in a purple shade to match her evening gown that looked like a bad shade of a bruise. Her lips were small and red, they were also arched up into a smile. Marilyn was sitting on his bed looking like that cat that ate the canary.
Deccan gave his best smile, “ Marilyn, dear why are you in my room?”
“ I grew bored waiting for dinner- thought I’d skip ahead to desert.” She purred, her hand inviting him to come sit by her.
Deccan stepped closer to her but did not sit by her. Some time ago, well almost a century really, they had been an item. They ran across Europe, young and in love. Deccan had never felt so in love, while Marilyn was drawn to Deccan cause of his beauty and power. Over time Marilyn grew more and more blood thirsty, something that did not fly with Deccan. Though he was a vampire he never felt the need to torture and be malicious to others. Does one have to play with its food to get substance, he had asked her. But Marilyn’s sadistic ways and blood thirst grew and had drive Deccan away. They were no more than friends, except for when Marilyn felt that she wanted him back. A woman’s scorn can last a long time when one is immortal.
“ Well you’ll have to check with the cooks for that.” Deccan smiled sweetly.
Marilyn stood up in front of him, “ Now that wasn’t the desert I was talking about.” She teased her fingers down his chest.
Deccan grabbed her hand softly, “ I know.” He sighed. “ I need to get ready for tonight. Rain check?” More like when hell freezes over check, he thought.
She pouted her lips, “ You always say that.”
“ Then you should know by now that it won’t happen.” He sighed. He didn’t like always telling her no. She was beautiful, she could have anyone – anytime. .. so why does she always have to bug me? He thought. He didn’t want to hurt her feelings [ that was assuming she had any] and even though he didn’t care for her anymore like that he still didn’t like being the bad guy.
Her eyes flashed and grew hard. She snapped her hand back to her side. “ a*****e.” She hissed and shoved him out of her way as she stomped outside of his room. She slammed the door behind her.
For a brief second she felt unwanted, unloved and rejected. Then she caught her reflection in the mirror and smiled. His loss, she skipped off to the dungeons to grab a quick bite to eat before dinner.
Deccan jumped on his bed like a cat and sighed. His room now smelt like Marilyn, ugh he thought. That woman is going to chase me for the rest of eternity. He laid there thinking of Daryl’s new pet, Abby. She was beautiful – for a human. I wonder what her voice sounds like? He smiled as he remembered how modest she was- she was so a virgin. Which surprised him, she was beautiful and most female pets by age 20 were not. Humans often let their desires get the best of them, much like any other race.
Deccan stood up and walked to his closet to change shirts, his black jeans would do fine. He flipped through his shirt and decided on a deep blue one. He was buttoning up his shirt when he heard a knock on the door.
“ Enter” he replied.
A young human woman, someone else’s pet came walking through the door. Her face looking down towards her feet and her hands at her sides. “ Dinner will be ready shortly Master Deccan.”
Deccan nodded and dismissed her with a wave of his hand.
A floor down Abby was fighting with Gabe on what to wear.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“ Just put it on!” Gabe snapped, trying to put the dress on Abby for the tenth time. She jumped on the bed and shook her head.
No way in hell am I wearing that, she thought. The black dress had no back and the front shaped in a “V” barely covering her breast and it ended at her upper thigh. Give me jeans she yelled in her mind.
“ You are going to make us late Abby- and then I’ll be punished! Just put it on! Be glad Daryl is even letting you wear clothes- you could just go naked. Is that what you want?” he asked her leaning against the wall. She would learn sooner or later that she wasn’t allowed to make her own decisions. And it would be sooner for her since she was Daryl’s.
Abby jumped off the bed and grabbed the garment, shaking her head. She didn’t want to go naked. And Gabe was right, she didn’t want him to be punished because she was being difficult. She turned looked at him and kept her hand outstretched.
He looked at her blankly. “ What?”
Underwear you dope, she thought rolling her eyes. She pointed to her chest and then to her butt.
Gabe blushed. “ Oh.. umm...closet, second drawer. You can pick those out.”
So the guy could blush. She nodded a thank you and walked over to the closet. The underwear drawer looked like a box from adult video store. The underwear were lacy and way too fancy. She was use to just boy shorts and comfy hane’s. She grabbed a black lacy underwear and a halter top bra. And sighed. At least they were clothes that no one would see, she thought.
She looked at Gabe to turn and moved her finger in a turn around motion. He did and she got dressed.
When she was done Gabe went to work on her hair, fluffing it and making sure that her curls were just bouncy enough. She sat there frustrated the entire time. When he came at her with make up she shook her head.

Get the goo away from me! She thought.
“ Oh come on darling, it is just a little make up.” Gabe teased. This one was head strong at everything.
At that moment Daryl came walking through the door. “ Is she ready?” he asked.
Gabe moved to the side, “ I was about to finish up with make up for her, Master Daryl.”
Daryl looked at the little hellion starring death at him. Her hair was flowing over her shoulders in a curly cascade. Her body was made for the dress, it allowed you to see her toned curves and perfect skin. Her eyes were a dark shade of green against the black, the eyes that were hard and glaring at him.
He shook his head, “ No make up. She looks fine with out it.”
Abby smiled. That’s one break for me so far, she clicked off in her head.
Daryl moved to help her stand up. “ Now tonight’s dinner is your introduction to the rest of the coven. Since you can not speak I don’t have to worry about you mouthing off to anyone. But your facial expressions need to be under control. No more glaring. Period. I’ve let it go on too long. No more. When I say something do it or nod. Understand?” he questioned her.
Abby rolled her eyes. ******** you, she thought.
A hand instantly flew across her face. Not hard enough to knock her out, but enough to make her eyes water and her face sting. “ I mean it.” Daryl warned. “ You think I am mean? Try that with any one else and they would have killed you in an instant. I want you to last more than a year at least. Try not to get yourself killed so soon.”
Abby’s hand went to her face as she shot a pissed off look at him. But she nodded regardless .
“ good let’s go.” Daryl grabbed her wrist and led her down the hall way.
