C51• Rose’s Dream

Victor's POV:

"Look at what I found," Polar purred out and held out an envelope to me as he sat up on the bed. "It was on the nightstand when I woke up," he told me as he crawled onto my body. He eyed me over in amusement as he watched me. I had just woken up and saw him waiting for me to wake up. He flicked his ears as he pointed to my name on it. I chuckled and leaned up, giving him a kiss before I glanced over towards Trick nearby then took the letter quietly, opening it.

"Thank you, Polar," I murmured and eyed him over. He's so cute. Trick flicked his ears before he looked at us and frowned a little. Polar gave me a sweet look before looking at Trick and moved off me quickly and blushed. He laid back down next to me and eyed the letter over. I caught it was from Laurence since his signature was at the bottom.

Dear Victor,

Paris and Richard had their baby boy today. I thought I would let you know. He decided to name him Donnie. Hopefully you can come to see him. He's an adorable little boy~ - Laurence.

"What's it about?" Trick asked as he watched me.

"Oh, Paris and Richard had their baby today," I whispered and looked over at Trick. "Remember them?"

"Yes," he purred out and gave an amused look. Polar tilted his head quickly to the side. That reminds me.... I glanced Trick over then sat up.

"Trick, we should go see your little fox," I suggested and smirked. "She should be pretty far along by now. We've been away from her for too long."

"It's been about half a year," he said and shrugged. "I don't know if they're ready or not to come out of the oven... Wouldn't they notify you?"

"Yes, but I thought you would be wanting to see her again. She is carrying your child after all. The baby might be kicking by now too. They did invite us to come back and see her as frequently as we wanted to," I reminded him and purred.

"Well... I wouldn't mind going to see them..." He trailed off then and lowered his ears slightly. "I'd rather go see Dante~ There are a few there that are my age." I sighed and rubbed Polar's ears, pulling his head close to my chest.

"Well... we could go see Dante... or we could go see your foxy lady... or we could go see Paris's baby...." If we go see Paris's baby though, we better get a gift.

"I bet Rose is there," Trick purred out in amusement. "You should go see her."

"Rose?" Polar asked softly.

"She's the sweet baby sister of Paris- Oh I have an idea! We could go see Paris first and ask Rose to come with us to the market. She'll have a day~! Maybe she'll find her mate there." I tensed and slowly shrunk down on the bed. Fuuuuudge nuggets. I looked Trick over before I frowned. Is he making shots at me because I've been really close with Polar lately? Damn, would Rose get mad if she found out I got a cute little fox? I never told her I got Polar....

"Trick," I grumbled and rubbed Polar's ear. "Are you making shots at me?"

"No, I just thought it would be a great idea to help Rose find someone~ She doesn't have anyone anymore. Now that her kitty is missing, and you've been quiet and ignoring her. She's probably bored and lonely around her brothers and their mates." I tsked then.

"You are making shots at me," I grumbled. Damn it.... Would she get upset about Polar? Rose and I weren't... exactly together... though we did flirt... and play prisoners.... Besides, I don't want her getting a mate- wait, why do I care? I tensed and hugged Polar. Do I care?

"What shots?" Trick asked calmly.

"S-so..." Polar trailed off. "Are we doing what Trick suggested?"

"No," I muttered. "I'll have to explain to Rose about us."

"Why would you have to do that?" He asked and lowered his ears.

"Well... Rose and I used to flirt," I told Polar softly. "It's been awhile though...."

"Oh~ Well she won't mind if you're happy," Polar told me.

"Huh," Trick grumbled. "What do you two think you are? Nothing but a master and pet," he said in a warning tone.

"Yeaaaaah, nothing but a master and a pet," I said and glanced over at Trick. Crud... did I say too much. "He's such a good boy too." I rubbed Polar's head and leaned over, giving Trick a kiss on the cheek as I purred. "You're such a good son~" Trick purred and eyed me over before he wagged his tail.

"So, are we going to see Dante?"

"Perhaps... I might drop you off there," I suggested and rubbed Polar's ears. "Would you like that? I'll drop you off there and go visit Paris."

"No," they both said together.

"I don't want to miss seeing the baby," Trick told me.

"Okay, then... we'll go see Dante for a day then go to Paris," I hummed out. "Go pack."

"Now?" Trick asked and got up slowly. "Why can't you make maids do it?"

"Then ask the maids," I said calmly and laughed. "Go ask for us, Trick." I kept Polar down as I watched Trick cautiously. Trick frowned before he walked out of the room and grumbled something under his breath. Polar wagged his tail a little in amusement. I smirked and watched him go before I leaned down and kissed Polar quickly. "Hey cutie, good morning," I purred teasingly and stole another kiss. "Want to run off while he's not looking?" I winked and leaned in towards his neck, biting in and marking him with a playful growl. He gasped and gave a small laugh before melting against me.

"N-no," he told me. "Don't be like that. It's Trick..." I pulled my fangs out and purred at him.

"Are we ever going to tell him?" I asked and rubbed his cheek. "Do you think he would grow to be okay with it?"

"I'm not telling him anything," he told me before rolling over and grabbed a blanket and wrapped up to it. "It might break his old man's heart."

"That we're together?" I asked and frowned. "I think he'd just get mad for a little while," I hummed out then sighed. I should check in on Rose.... "Stay here for a bit. I'm going to go check in on Rose and let them know we're coming in a day or two."

"I'll be waiting around here," he told me. I purred and reached into my pocket, pulling out a coin then tossed it towards him.

"Keep that for me till I get back." I got to my feet and stretched before I teleported to their place in Canada and whistled, walking in and smelled the air for them. The place was quiet, but I could hear them sleeping in their rooms. I caught the faint sound of Laurence's light footsteps in his room. I teleported to it quickly and yanked him off his feet and up into my arms with a playful growl before I bit into his neck. He laughed and wrapped his arms around my shoulders quickly when he noticed it was me.

"Victor~! You know what we should do soon?" He asked me in slight amusement. "Go on that journey with Val and Alex." I pulled my fangs out and smirked.

"Oh? Okay, we'll go as soon as I finish visiting Dante and then Paris and Richard," I told him. "I'll leave Trick and Polar in Rose's hands."

"You don't want to take them with you?" He asked and frowned. "We'll take care of them."

"Are you sure that's a good idea? Trick's really old," I murmured. Though they would throw a fit if I left them alone. "Alright, we'll bring them, but they'll need to rest as much as possible while we travel."

"They'll do fine on the little adventure," he told me. "If anything, you could leave them with Dante." True....

"I could, but he gets funny every now and then," I said and shrugged before I smirked. "So, where's the baby?"

"Sleeping in his parent's bedroom with them protecting him."

"Think I could sneak in there quietly enough to see?" I asked and sat Laurence down.

"Sure~ I'll go with you." He grabbed my hand and took me out of his room and quietly down the hall. He took me into another room where we found Paris and Richard knocked out on their bed and a crib right by it. He took me over to the crib and slowly pulled a blanket back from the baby inside it to let me see him better. I purred slightly at the sight and leaned over the crib before I rubbed the little boy's cheek and chuckled.

"Cute," I whispered and then slowly pulled my hand back. He looks so much like Paris when he's male....

"Very," Laurence purred out. "He's going to be a very strong man when he's older. Like his parents." He looked at them then. "They're a little worn out. We had intruders which set Paris off into early childbirth- but one of the twins didn't survive the invasion." He frowned then.

"He had a twin?" I asked softly and frowned, looking the little guy over. Poor bugger. Damn, he's already been through a lot. I slowly pulled him out of his crib and held him in my arms, lightly rocking him. Hmm, he's going to be powerful when he's older? He's kind of scrawny now though.

"Don't wake him," Laurence laughed out softly. "He's been through a lot... Losing his twin and being born..."

"Hmph, I'd be more worried about waking the other two," I said and smirked, eyeing over Richard and Paris, watching Richard stir as he pulled Paris closer in his sleep.

"What the hell are you two doing?" I heard Louis at the door behind us. "Hey, they're sleeping. You shouldn't be messing with Donnie like that while they're asleep. What if they wake up and find out?"

"I warned Victor already not to wake up Donnie," Laurence said softly. "He just wanted a look at the little baby. Don't worry~ Nothing will happen."

"I'm going to sic Rose on you two," he teased us then started to walk down the hall. "Rose, guess who's here? Victor is playing with Donnie~" I widened my eyes and put Donnie back in the crib quickly. Crud. Donnie whined a little and opened his eyes up before he whined louder and started to kick his feet. He looked me over before he started up into a cry. I heard Richard groan from the bed, starting to sit up at the sound of it with a tired sigh. Crap!

"Shhhhh," I hushed Donnie and started to rub his cheek to get him to calm down. Damn it, if Richard sees, who knows if he'll get mad because I'm messing with his kid....

"Victor," Richard grumbled and got up, shoving me out of the way and scooped up Donnie then tensed, staring at me. "V-Victor, when did you get here?" He asked sharply and looked me over before he smirked and laughed. "You snuck into my room?" Well.... Donnie looked Richard over before he whined again and broke out into another cry as his eyes scanned the room.

"I snuck him in to meet Donnie- but he woke him up sitting him down," Laurence told him.

"Hey~" I heard Rose's voice purr from the doorway. "It's about time the tumbleweed blew back into town."

"I'm not a tumbleweed," I said and looked her way then purred loudly as my eyes landed on her. It's been so long.

"Oh, it's alright," Richard said and looked me over. "Victor wouldn't mean us any harm." He sat down on the bed and patted Donnie's back before he eyed him over. "Are you hungry? Looking for mommy?" He asked and looked towards Paris before he snuck over to her and started to move her dress to the side, getting in the way that way I couldn't see and slipped Donnie onto Paris. "There, don't wake mommy though."

"R-Richard," Paris grumbled lightly. "You better not be feeding our kid with others in the room," she mumbled lightly.

"He's doing it," Laurence said in amusement before turning his back quickly and made me do it. I heard Donnie let out a moan.

"It's fine. It's just Laurence, Victor, and Rose," Richard whispered. "Victor can't see anyways. I made sure that he couldn't.... Our Vic woke him up. Donnie seemed to be looking for you." I heard Donnie let out a sigh after a few minutes.

"You're in trouble," Paris mumbled to us. "All of you for waking me up." She gave an amused purr.

"Oh, it's not their fault," Richard said and gave a teasing growl. "They just wanted to see our baby boy~ Look at him though, he's so sweet~ He's all tuckered out already." I heard the bed shift before I heard Richard setting Donnie back into the crib. "There, back to bed Donnie." I heard Donnie babble a bit then and give a giggle. The bed shifted a little before Laurence turned back around and motioned to me that I was free to face them again. I turned around and smirked as I walked up to the bed and crawled into it, stealing Richard's spot as I looked down at Paris.

"So~ you're a mommy now," I said and laughed. "How's that feel? Was it the worst torture in the world?"

"Want to find out?" Paris teased me. "Being a mother is wonderful though... You should have some kids, Victor. You'll never understand the love I feel for Donnie until you do." She looked at the crib then. "That's almost my whole world in that little bitty crib. The rest is right by it," she looked at Richard then. Richard purred and then crawled onto the bed, pushing me aside and went to kiss Paris. I tsked and teleported over to Rose.

"They're such love birds," I muttered to her.

"They've been together for a long time," she reminded me. "They might have been separated but it doesn't mean they never stopped loving each other. This is their little reward for the many years they've shared." She eyed them over. "We better give them their time to sleep. Babies are a handful." Laurence nodded in agreement as he walked up to us and moved us out of the doorway to shut the door. I frowned as I let him then looked towards Rose.

"Seen Vlad lately?" I asked and put my hands into my pockets.

"No," she whispered and frowned before she eyed me over. Her eyes flickered to Laurence. "Where is he?"

"I don't know," Laurence said calmly. "I can't see everything~! Sometimes I have to ignore things."

"Don't you think it's important?" She asked.

"Not really," Laurence told her and started down the hall to go back to his room. I watched him go then looked towards Rose before I sighed.

"Well that's alright. He'll show up eventually," I told her and tsked. I smirked then and grabbed her hand, starting to pull her down the hall.

"Where to?" She asked me playfully and wrapped her arms around my arm. "To the stars?" I chuckled and took her into a nearby room and smirked as I saw it was Richard's music room. I turned to look at her and purred.

"Sort of~" I told her and then took her over to the couch, sitting her down on it. "I got a new fox and have another on the way. Trick got a fox pregnant at the breeders." She frowned a little.

"Oh?" She asked me and crossed her legs. "You must really like foxes, Victor~" I purred and nodded.

"Of course. They're so adorable with their little ears and tails." I sat down beside her then smirked. "So, what have you been up to?"

"I've been here with my brother," she told me. "Well... sister." She giggled. "I was helping her with her pregnancy."

"Is that all?" I asked and gave her a playful look, moving closer to her.

"That's it," she told me and eyed me over before giving me a playful look. She crawled into my lap then and exposed her fangs at me.

"Sounds absolutely dreadfully boring," I purred and reached out, touching her fangs. "You must be so cooped up here~"

"I'm going home as soon as the new baby wears off on everyone," she told me and laughed.

"Isn't that a little like cheating?" I asked and smirked. "You get to stick around here for free without any strange looks from your sister and her mate."

"Hey~ It's my nephew that was born~ I'm going to eat him up every chance I get until he's old enough and I'm not worried too much about him. When he's five and they loosen their grip on him and will let him visit family members, I'll definitely go home to that old cold castle."

"It's not cold if you burned a fire every now and then," I teased her and smirked as I looked her fangs over then looked into her eyes. "If you stayed there more often, it wouldn't be cold either." She smirked and nodded before hiding her fangs and crawled out of my lap.

"I'm sure the maids keep their quarters nice and toasty."

"Then crawl into bed with them if it's so cold," I told her and then exposed my fangs at her. "Laurence and I are going to go on a trip soon with Val and Alex~ Wish us luck?"

"No. I want you to have an adventure," she told me. "I hope some trees fall on the road to make you stay out there longer and figure out the world."

"Are you trying to say I don't get out much?" I asked and frowned at her as I slipped a bottle of vodka out of the jacket, I went to bed in. I took a swig of it then moaned, sinking down into my seat.

"None of us do~ We're spoiled vampires with lots of servants. We don't need to wander the streets." I nodded and smirked.

"Fair enough," I purred out then offered her the bottle. She eyed it over before taking it and taking a swallow from it. I smirked and pulled out another, starting to chug it. She laughed and took it from me.

"Don't do that, Victor. You don't need to drink it like that." I laughed and went for it.

"Rose, are you still going to try to get me to stop drinking?" I asked and smirked at her.

"When you're ready, you know where I'll be~" She teased me and then threw the bottle. I frowned and looked towards the bottle then at her before I exposed my fangs and leaned in, biting into her shoulder. Did she really have to throw it? She gasped and pushed me off quickly before giving me a playful growl.

"Victor~" She whispered before getting off the couch. "Don't bite me."

"Why not?" I asked and licked my lips, giving a small moan at the taste of her blood. I eyed her over then smirked. Would it really hurt to get a good bite in? I teleported in front of her and bit down into her neck hard, starting to drink from her as I pinned her in my arms. She groaned and shrunk in my arms.

"Victor," she moaned out and exposed her neck more. I purred and dug my fangs in a little deeper, drinking greedily but pulled back a few minutes later and licked my lips clean. I looked her over and purred at her. She tastes so good.... She blushed and eyed me over before slowly smelling me and let out a gasp.

"What?" I asked and smirked before I rubbed her chin. "Hungry?" I exposed my neck to her and purred lowly.

"No... I can smell you've been doing things though, Victor," she told me and tsked. "Naughty boy." I smirked then. She must smell Polar.

"Naughty?" I asked and looked into her eyes.

"Yeah~" She pulled away and pulled the bottle she had up to her lips and took a swig from it.

"Is it Polar?" I asked and smelled my shirt curiously. Maybe she smells him on my shirt with my mark on him....

"I don't know~ I've never smelled that scent before," she told me. "It must be." I nodded then stole the bottle, taking a sip of it then gave it back to her with a purr.

"Trick doesn't know yet," I whispered to her. "He's going to be so mad when he finds out. He doesn't want me with a fox who's a lot younger than him."

"Well I would guess so~!" She laughed then. "It's a little understandable."

"I guess~ He's worried that Polar is going to try to boss him I think," I said then purred at her. "Want to have some fun before I go to Dante's? We could play prisoners again~"

"You want to play with me again?" She asked and smirked. "We better go to my castle then." I smirked and snatched her arm, teleporting us to her castle.

"You gotta tie me up," I teased her and then let her arm go. "I can't be your prisoner if I'm not contained~"

"You want to be my prisoner?" She asked and giggled.. "You better get to running then because I'm going to get my rope." She disappeared suddenly. I smirked and teleported up to Paris's old room and looked around then snuck over to a window and looked out it. While I wait~ She'll probably look here last.

After a few minutes I felt a hand grab mine before I was down in the torture chambers and against the wall. I felt Rose's soft hands tying me up. I smirked and gave a small hiss, exposing my fangs as I put up a light struggle and teasingly moaned at her as I felt the rope tighten against my skin. She got it tied firmly before dragging me over to a hook in the center of the ceiling and moved the rope onto it. She smirked and ripped off my shirt quickly. "Victor," she purred out. I laughed and looked at her then up at the hook. We're not doing acupuncture today? I smirked at her and squirmed a little.

"Are you going to whip me like the naughty boy I am?" I asked and purred in amusement. She walked over to the whips hanging up on the wall and eyed them over before smirking and grabbed one.

"Yes~ I'll whip you," she told me and looked back at me. "Victor, I never figured you to be into men," she whispered and tilted her head. "I thought you liked girls." I purred at her then.

"I am into girls," I said and smirked. "I think I just got really lonely and he is really cute. He likes to steal things." I glanced over the whips and felt my purr get louder. I hope she picks the worst one up there....

"Oh~ Lonely?" She asked me and walked up to me with the whip. "If you were so lonely you should have told me. I would have found you someone." She ran her fingers across my chest then before she looked into my eyes. "I know some really pretty girls." I purred and exposed my fangs.

"I don't just accept any girl into my life like that," I said and playfully squirmed at her touch. "I need someone who can handle me. Someone who isn't just a pretty face." Polar isn't just a pretty face, and he can handle me.... Rose could handle me too if she wanted.

"Victor~ You're easy to handle. All a girl has to do is give you a bottle of vodka," she said in a teasing tone. "Then she could do anything she wanted for the rest of the day while you're sleeping off a hangover." She took a few steps back then and smirked as she walked behind me.

"No way~ I get feisty," I said and smirked, trying to look at her over my shoulder. "You should see me when I go through my spells~ I've made Trick hide before."

"You're not that scary to me," she said and laughed. I felt her fingers running down my back then. "So, which one of you was bottom?" She asked softly in my ear. I shivered and tugged on the rope at her touch.

"D-does that matter? He was nervous. I let him on top because I didn't want him to cry," I said and arched my back.

"You really aren't that bad then," she teased me before taking a few steps back. I heard her whip the ground a few times before striking my back hard. I yelped and gripped the rope tightly, squeezing my eyes shut as the pain shot through me.

"D-damn, it's been awhile," I murmured then felt a purr go through me as I felt the blood dripping down my back. I love this game~ I felt the whip strike me again hard- she put more force into it this time. I yelped and arched my back before I groaned.

"Victor~ If I run a hospital will you come be a patient there?" She asked me sweetly. A hospital?

"What kind of hospital?" I muttered and flexed my sore muscles a bit to try to work out the pain, gritting my teeth. "What would you do?"

"Cure you," she told me sweetly. I felt the whip strike me again- sending a shiver of pain through my spine. I felt a small moan escape me as I collapsed and dangled by the rope around my wrists.

"C-cure me? Of what? Alcoholism?"

"Any other thing bothering you too," she purred out to me. She walked back over to the whips and placed the one she took out back up. She walked up to me then and eyed me over before she took me off the hook and let me fall to the ground. She bent over me and pulled out a couple of nails and a hammer before she nailed the rope down to the floor. When she finished, she walked over to a machine in the corner and rolled it over to me before walking off to a corner and grabbed two metal rods. She walked back up to me and smirked. "Don't you want to be cured?" I looked the rods over and frowned.

"I'm perfectly fine~ You're the one that needs cured," I told her and then laughed at the thought. If only someone could catch her long enough without her ripping their throat out... or Paris ripping their throat out. I smirked and exposed my fangs. "You should be like me~"

"What's that supposed to mean?" She asked me and frowned. "I don't need curing," she whispered and tilted her head a little before shoving the metal rods into my thighs. "It's okay to be a little crazy." I groaned and bit back a small scream before I looked down at the metal rods in panic. What the hell is she doing?! I growled up at her then and glared as I tried to pull my hands back up from the ground.

"What the hell?!"

"I'm torturing you," she reminded me. "It'll get a little crazy." She walked over to the machine then. "This little baby is amazing," she told me before cutting it on. "It's like lightning in a box." She grabbed two red pliers hooked up to it before she hooked them to the rods sticking out of my thighs. "This is going to be fun," she told me before walking back to the machine and hovered her finger over a switch. "Let me know what it feels like." I frowned and eyed it over.

"You're electrocuting me? I liked the whip," I whined playfully then gave her a sweet smile. "Throw the switch. You're teasing me too bad." She smiled at me before it turned to a frown and she flicked the switch. Within seconds my body was shaking against the ground as a thousand tiny bolts ran through my body- making me clench up in pain. She watched me and looked amused then. I bit back a small scream, clenching my jaw before I squeezed my eyes shut. Damn, this hurts like hell.... I've got to get one of these for my torture chambers back home.... My prisoners would scream so sweetly~ I felt a pained yelp rip through my body finally, followed by a small scream as the pain seemed to intensify.

"Victor~ If you can get out of this you can have the machine," she told me sweetly. "That's a big if," she told me and started to walk towards the door. "I'll come back to check on you." Whaaaaat? I opened my eyes and looked towards where she was going. She's seriously leaving me in here? What a bore! She stopped at the doorway and looked back at me before giving a smirk. "But I didn't say when I'll be back." I growled sharply at her and gripped the rope tightly as I tried to fight the convulsions running through my body. Oh, I'm so going to get her for ditching me in the middle of our game.... If she's going to play with me like that, I'll find a new playmate. She left the room then- locking the door behind her. It suddenly started to fall as a metal door replaced it with no door handles on it. The walls seemed to move with it to become metal as well. I groaned and looked towards the metal rods then started to fight to get to it before I grabbed it and let out a shriek as the bolts went up my arm quickly, but I yanked it out and tossed it then went for the other one, doing the same as quick as I could then panted as my body started to relax. Fuuuuuuudge rockets. I frowned and looked around. Screw this, I might as well go home. I stood up and stumbled then fell to my knees as a cry of pain escaped me, my legs giving out as I trembled. C-crap, explaining this to Trick is going to be fun. I frowned and went to teleport then froze up on the floor when it didn't happen. What?

"Rose?" I called out quickly. Why can't I teleport? The machine cut off slowly before a clock started to count down on it from ten seconds. I frowned and looked at the machine then tsked, laying there as I started to focus on regaining my strength.

After a little while, I slowly got to my feet and went over to the metal door, looking it over before I tapped it with my fingers and frowned. Hmph, did she seriously put me in a room where I can't use my powers? Is she trapping me? Of course, she is. She wants to stick you in that hospital in a little padded room and offer you a crumb of cheese every now and then like you're a lab rat. I laughed at the thought then banged on the door, testing it out to see if it could do anything fun. The door stayed sturdy as I hit it. The room made tiny clicking sounds before the floor lowered- making the walls grow taller until water started to pour into the room from the ground- rising through tiny vents- that could be bendable. I raised an eyebrow then walked up to one, kicking at it curiously. Am I going to drown? How far will it fill up? Does Rose have control over this or is this safety protocols for prisoners? They bent a little as the floor shifted in a continuing movement- lowering me into water that seemed to be filling up the room. I heard something brush up on the other side of the bars- bending it my way and almost busting it. Oh... I laughed and looked at the bars quickly. Is there an animal?

"Hellooooooooo~?" There was another bang from the other side before the bars busted open and more water poured in along with dark creatures I've never seen before. The lights suddenly went out around me. Oh... fun! I think I'll be quiet.... Who knows what is in the water with me. I held back a laugh and let myself float, staying as still as possible as I listened to the water around me and exposed my fangs, closing my eyes. I heard them swimming around me then as the water poured in from wherever it was coming from. I felt something brush up against me before more creatures followed in brushing up against me- attacking me but not with teeth- just with their bodies roughly. I tensed a little and fought the urge to shove them away, staying still as I opened my eyes quickly. What the hell kind of pets does Rose have? Eels? Sharks? I suddenly felt something bite down into my body hard. Tiny thousands of sharp teeth tore through my skin. I shrieked and kicked quickly. Fuck! What is that?! I snarled and snatched it, biting down into it sharply and tossed its bleeding body at its friends. Damn, let's see how he likes it! I heard cries from around me, but I couldn't place its species from the sounds. The taste of its blood was delicious though- very interesting and tangy. I snatched another and bit it before I tore into it for another taste. What is this?

Its touch was silky smooth but also it felt like I was brushing my fingers against scales? They suddenly sharpened and I felt my hand stinging in pain against needle like objects. The scales I bit into did the same- tearing into my mouth. I growled and tore the chunk out and spat it at its friends then went to lick at the blood, making sure not to brush my tongue against the scales still left on it as I forced my hands to tighten on the thing. I felt it's other friends bite into me then as they swarmed in like predators. Their tiny needle teeth ripped into me- tearing my skin up. I suddenly felt my head hit the ceiling as the water reached it. I'm going under. Fudge... I wonder if Rose will get my stone back from these things if they manage to get me.... I let the thing go after I tore in hard enough to kill it then lashed out at another one, trying to scare them off as I let a snarl rip through the water. I felt them continue to attack me before they broke off a few pieces of me and suddenly left my body alone. I tsked and made sure to stay near the ceiling, putting my back against it before I closed my eyes. Good thing I don't need to breathe.... I'll sleep, pretend I'm dead. If they come back, I'll just eat them~ I felt a few more worming- barely brushing against me again- but staying near my feet. I kicked at one then snarled, going after them with my fangs again. I'll train them~ They managed to stay just out of my reach and brushed up against a new part of me when I went for them. I scoffed and then kicked at it again. I felt something dig its teeth into me again and felt my body move off the ceiling and get dragged through the water. Shiiiiiiizzzzz. Screw this. She can find my stone. I ran my fingers to my chest then started to dig my fingers in, being quick about it before I snatched my own stone and yanked it out.

Rose's POV:

I checked the clock on the wall and frowned. "What the hell is taking him so long?" I asked softly before I crawled into my bed. "He must really like that machine," I grumbled and smirked a little. I bet he triggered the door trap... He's probably down there with the fishes. No doubt! I'll rescue him after a nap- if he's not already waking me up by then. I eyed over my bed and purred. I haven't been in this thing since Donnie was conceived and I was informed I'd be an aunt~! I giggled and eyed over the many pillows on it before I closed my eyes and felt myself drifting to sleep- my head tilting a little to the side before falling over as I knocked out.

"Rose," I heard Victor's voice purr out as a light flickered at the end of a hallway. "You know you want to have some fun," he murmured in my ear as I felt his fingers brushing against my shoulders before he massaged them. "You built this place just to trap me here, and now you have me~"

"I do?" I purred out to him and smiled softly. "You better not give me any trouble then or I'll have to punish you."

"Are you going to drug me again?" He asked teasingly then ran his fingers to the front of my throat. "Doctor Rose Grimm?" I could see doors lining the hall with various charts outside them- like it was a hospital. The walls were a sterile white, but the place looked like it could use some work.

"Yes, you better get back down in your bed," I told him and looked down at the cart in front of me with a needle and syringe sitting on it. There was a bottle right by it that had his name written all over it.

"I'm tired of my bed," he said and let me go suddenly before he whistled. "OH JIMMY BOOOOY!" He purred out, his footsteps heading down the hall like he was searching for a cell. "I'm getting kind of hungry~!" I frowned then and grabbed him just before he was out of reach. I let him go and started to ready the drug for him instead. I'll get him when he's feasting.

"That's not up for you to decide," I told him.

"What's that supposed to mean?" He growled out, his eyes looking down into mine sharply before he brushed his white hair back out of his face, running his fingers through it. He eyed my neck over then smirked devilishly, sending a shiver through me from the look as he slowly started for me. I finished putting his medicine into the syringe and then attached the needle before I went after him quickly to stick him with it.

"It means goodnight," I told him. He growled and jumped back then narrowed his eyes.

"Don't do that~ Then I can't bite you~"

"Come here," I purred out and started after him. He snarled and exposed his fangs as he backed up quickly then widened his eyes as he quickly hit a wall behind him. I smirked as I walked up to him and grabbed his wrist to piece him with the needle. He yelped and tensed as he started to tremble, looking at the needle with wide eyes.

"R-Rose, please don't. I don't like the needle," he told me and clenched his hand I had. "Everything gets fuzzy."

"Exactly," I told him. "It keeps you manageable."

"Just give me back my vodka," he growled out then leaned in, biting into my neck before he moaned and marked me suddenly, drinking greedily. I groaned and pushed the needle into his arm and went to insert the medicine into him. He dug his fangs in deeper quickly like he was fighting to keep ahold of me and growled. I groaned and trembled a little.

"I already won and you're not getting the vodka back," I told him. He licked my neck as he pulled his fangs out then moaned as he breathed in my scent and kissed my neck quickly. I purred and slowly moved away from him- letting him go and placed the needle in my pocket. "Alright... You can have a shot but then you're going back in your cell," I warned him. "Just a tiny drink. You probably won't like it."

"It better be the good stuff," he purred and smirked, snatching me by my white lab coat and dragged me closer to him. He looked me over then leaned in, kissing me deeply as he flipped us and shoved me back on the wall. I gasped and tensed up against him.

"V-Victor," I whispered. "Are you wanting vodka or me?" He purred and kissed me again, closing his eyes this time as he ran his fingers across my lab coat then got the needle out of my pocket, tossing it as he moved closer. I frowned as I heard it shatter. "That was expensive," I told him and purred.

"Replace it later," he murmured then kissed me again passionately.

"Get a room," I heard a girl growl out from the door near where we were. I purred and eyed him over before I looked at his cell.

"Get back in your room, patient," I told him sharply. He smirked then before he yanked me towards it.

"Come with me," he purred out and showed off his fangs playfully. I laughed and pulled away.

"No way~ I know what'll happen if I do." He smirked and leaned in, kissing me again.

"Do you know what will happen if you don't?" He asked and then growled suddenly. "I'll let all the patients out of their cells and start a revolt~"

"No, you won't," I growled out to him and eyed him over. He smirked and let me go, going towards a button on the wall quickly.

"Watch me~ AREN'T YOU ALL TIRED OF THE TERRIBLE FOOD?!" He shouted and held back a laugh as he went to press it. I frowned and grabbed his hand quickly before yanking him into his cell with me.

"Don't you dare- I make sure there is great food provided," I hissed to him.

"No way. I hate the food," he grumbled as he let me yank him in. "I don't even get dessert anymore. I think the nurse keeps eating it."

"Well I'll personally take care of her," I promised.

"Please~ All the other patients get brownies, and all I get is mush," he muttered and then plopped down onto his bed before he rubbed his fangs. "I get rotten blood too. It tastes spoiled every single time they bring it."

"I'm sorry," I whispered and frowned. "Maybe I should just let you go."

"No, I don't want out of here," he said and looked up at me with a purr. "I'm safe in my cell~"

"You're turning to mush," I told him and frowned.

"I'm your mush, doctor," he teased and then gave me a playful look. "You haven't shocked me in a while~ I miss it."

"You miss it?" I asked and purred. "I'll do it soon," I promised and eyed him over before I walked over to the table in his room and sat down at it. He eyed me over then was in front of me in seconds with a snarl, biting into my shoulder then ripped out a chunk before he spat it out and licked up the blood dripping down me. I frowned and looked the wound over before I looked at him.

"Victor," I hissed out.

"What~?" He sung softly and then growled playfully, drinking from me as he shoved me back onto the table and crawled over me. I gasped and pushed up on his chest.

"Victor~! This is a table. I'm not dinner," I told him sharply.

"You look like dinner," he teased and then kissed me with his bloody lips. I blushed and shook my head a little.

"I hope not," I whispered. "Don't eat me."

"Don't eat you?" He asked and smirked, running his finger along my jawline. "I'm going to eat you right up then~" He leaned in and kissed me passionately, tugging on my hair. I gasped and looked away quickly.

"No," I begged him. "Don't eat me up. I'm your doctor."

"Then doctor me," he growled out and kissed me again.

"I tried to, but you broke your medicine."

"Give me a different prescription," he said and smirked as he licked my blood off his lips then licked it off mine.

"Fine... I'll give you something," I purred and grabbed his chin. "If you behave while you're awake here and stop giving me trouble every time you're off your meds."

"What kind of trouble?" He asked and looked down at me defiantly.

"Like how you just threatened to start a riot," I hissed out. "I don't want that kind of trouble here."

"Fine, no riots~" he purred then kissed my hand holding my chin. "I'll be your little lab rat and squeak for you when you offer me cheese."

"Promise?" I asked softly and smirked.

"Promise~" He looked down at me and then licked his lips. "Make me squeak~" I laughed and wrapped my arms around him.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"What do you think that means?" He asked and smirked, kissing me quickly.

"I don't know," I whispered to him.

"Well that's too bad~ You'll have to find out," he purred and gave me a wink. "Don't you want to play with your new lab rat? I've got white hair like one." He tugged a strand down and looked at it curiously. "I love my hair~ it's so pretty like snow, and some cultures believe it's the mark of the insane~ Doc, am I insane? Am I mad? Am I uncurable?"

"Some think it represents purity," I told him calmly and eyed him over. "We all know you're not pure." He purred and licked his lips.

"Maybe I am pure~ Have you ever thought about that? What if all vampires are supposed to be like me?" He gave a playful growl then.

"That would be unmanageable... besides... my hair is your colored hair."

"Then maybe you're supposed to be my queen, Doc," he purred and then rubbed my bottom lip with his thumb as his fangs sharpened. "Want to make this world bend to our will?"

"I don't think it would," I purred to him.

"We could force it," he told me and leaned in, giving me a kiss before he slowly pierced my bottom lip with his fangs. A small moan escaped him as his hand traveled to my throat and his fingers brushed against it gently, twitching a little.

"You just want something from me," I whispered. He kissed me again then traveled towards my neck, kissing me there with a purr.

"What could I possibly want from my doctor?" He mumbled. I suddenly felt his hand brushing against my side, tickling me as his hand went towards my hip. I giggled and pushed up on his chest quickly.

"You know what," I whispered softly.

"But doc," he growled playfully and looked down at me before he kissed me passionately. I gasped and pulled back from the kiss quickly.

"Quit calling me doc," I whined out. He smirked then and rubbed my cheek.

"Rose," he purred sweetly and looked down into my eyes. "Come on~ I'm all yours, and you know it." I blushed before I nodded and eyed him over.

"V-Victor- we can't- I'll end up with a child."

"Then carry my child," he whispered as his eyes shot to my lips. "If I was to give the gift of my children to someone, it would be you~ You're the only one I can entrust with them."

"What if I don't want any?" I asked him softly.

"Eat those herbs I know women eat... or we can play around in ways you can't get pregnant," he told me and winked before he ran his hand down the front of my lab coat. "We don't have to play traditionally."

"V-Victor," I gasped out. "I'm not becoming male to suite your sexuality," I told him sharply.

"Did I say anything about becoming male?" He asked and smirked. "I want you female. I won't have you any other way." I gasped a little.

"I'm a lady," I told him. "I wouldn't ever do it other than traditionally." He laughed darkly then.

"Really?" He asked and ran his fingers over my skirt then slipped my skirt up my thighs and ran his fingers against my panties. I blushed and grabbed his hand quickly.

"V-Victor," I whispered softly. "Stop this, I'll put you on your meds again!" He growled and bit into my neck harshly, digging his fangs in deep. I squirmed quickly and growled. "Let me off this damn table!" I yelled at him. He snarled and yanked back from my neck and glared down at me as he pinned me.

"No," he hissed and then tsked. "Lab rats can still bite their masters."

"Yeah?" I asked him. "I throw away rotten apples. What do you think I do to bad lab rats?"

"Punish them," he purred and then grinned at me.

"No." I frowned at him before I teleported out from under him and outside the cell. I shut the door quickly and frowned.

"ROSE!" He snarled. I heard his footsteps come over to the door before he banged on it. "You can't lock me in here! ROSE!"

"I didn't lock it," I told him and started down the hall. He came out then and hissed.

"Just where the hell do you think you're going?! Get back here! Rose! I'm hungry!" He appeared in front of me then shoved me against a wall with a snarl before he bit into my shoulder and started to drink from me. I groaned and grabbed his arms quickly.

"Victor," I hissed out sharply. He bit harsher as another growl left his body, his fingernails digging into me as he clung to me to make sure I wouldn't run away. He pulled back after a few minutes and licked his lips before he shoved me firmly into the wall then let go, going down the hall like nothing happened. I frowned as I eyed him over and growled a little. "Bastard," I hissed out.

"Bastard? What a wonderful name~" He laughed and looked back over his shoulder at me before he winked and slipped a bottle of vodka out of his pocket and took a sip as he started to sing and went towards another patient's room. I frowned and clenched my jaw before I started down the hall in anger.

"I'm not going to be your doctor anymore."

"Awww, are you mad because I'm not the perfect little lab rat you wanted?" He asked, pausing. "Am I too much for you to handle? Am I not interesting enough for you? You don't like me pinning you down? You're the one who said you'd cure me. If you were going to give up so quickly, why would you make this place then lock me up in it? How silly.... To think you could have been my queen. You're no fun~"

"V-Victor," I heard Vlad call out a few cells down before I heard a small thud from the door, he was behind. "Victor, is that you? Please..." He sounded weak- helpless... not like how I remembered him at all. "Get me out...." I frowned and walked up to the door slowly and opened it. Vlad fell from leaning against the door and groaned as he hit the ground face down then curled up at my feet. "V-Victor, don't let them shock me, please," he begged. "I don't want to be shocked. I'm not a demon. I'm not a demon!"

"Vlad~" I purred out and reached down to him and picked up him. "Hello kitty!~" He shrieked in my arms and started to squirm.

"NOOO! No, no, no, no, no! No shocks!" He cried out and looked up at me in fear. "No more! No more shocks! I'm not a demon! I'm not!"

"No more," I promised him and kissed the top of his head. "I'll free you."

"What?" Victor hissed out from behind me. "Seriously?" Vlad trembled in my arms, relaxing a little as he smelled me before the blanket around his head fell down, showing off his proud little cat ears I missed so much. I purred and buried my face into them quickly.

"Vlad~!" I husked out. He squirmed and gasped sharply as I touched them, flicking his ears before I felt his familiar tail brush against my arm.

"Whatever," Victor muttered and started to walk off. "I'll play with Timmy." I purred a little and pulled back from Vlad.

"Where have you been?" I asked him softly. He's been gone for so long...

"I-in here.... You caught me and threw me in the cell," he mumbled and blushed, looking up at me. "You said I'd never get away from you again... and that you'd make sure I would be your kitty forever."

"You are my kitty," I purred to him and kissed his head again. He shrunk back and squeezed his eyes shut as he trembled again.

"Don't shock me," he begged and gripped my shirt. "Please not again! I don't like it. I don't wanna be shocked!"

"I'm sorry, I won't do it again," I promised. He slowly opened his eyes and looked up at me as a small purr started to bubble in his chest.

"You won't?" He asked hopefully and then nuzzled his head against my chest like a kitten and laughed as his tail flicked. "Master~!"

"Mistress," I corrected him.

"M-Mistress," he said and then smelled my shirt as he laid his ears back and then moved his face into my neck to hide as his tail swung back and forth, flicking from side to side. "Mistress... please don't hurt me again...."

"I won't..." I pulled away from him and started to follow Victor's scent then. "VICTOR!" He gasped and followed me quickly, stumbling. I found Victor at the end of the hall, looking out a window as he stared at the snow outside on the ground with a distant look. He glanced my way as I came closer then looked back outside, slowly pulling away from the windowsill. I smirked and grabbed him as soon as I reached him and teleported him out into the snow. He looked around in delight then sunk to his knees before he laid down in it and purred, closing his eyes as he let the cold sink in through his thin clothes of the hospital. He purred and then looked up at me before he yanked me down with him and chuckled. Vlad looked around us before he eyed over the trees a little way away, flicking his tail then ran towards them. I watched him before I purred and looked back down at Victor and kissed him slowly.

"Marry me," I whispered to him. "If you want me." He leaned in and kissed me before he nodded slightly and wrapped his arms around me.

"Fine," he purred and then gave me another kiss. "Anything you want~"

"Promise to marry me?" I asked softly. He nodded and then kissed me again.

"You want my Russian ring?" He showed it off to me then- his family crest was engraved in the gold proudly. "You can hold onto it till I get you a better ring~" I eyed it over before nodding.

"If you become my husband then you'll have to get out of your cell more often."

"Come visit me more~" He teased then rolled us over in the snow, so I was on the bottom. "Unless... you want to start treating me at your castle or mine.... You could make an order for it."

"No... You're going to stop treatments and give up alcohol for me," I told him firmly.

"Hmph." He eyed me over then sighed. "Fiiiine only a sip every now and then," he whispered and started to empty out his pockets, pulling out his hidden stash- how the heck did he manage to get that many, I don't know. I frowned as I watched him. He looked up at me then kissed me. "I promise," he whispered. "I'll only put sweets in my pockets for you~" I smirked and leaned in to give him a kiss. He kissed me quickly and purred against my lips, deepening it as he moved closer. I heard a few branches crack from a tree off in the forest, making Victor tense above me. I frowned and looked at the woods curiously. I caught sight of Vlad up in a tree, trying to get higher in it as a broken branch fell to the ground. I looked back at Victor and licked my lips a little. He looked at me then smirked before he kissed me quickly, interrupting me. I blushed and kissed him back quickly. He moaned a little then deepened it slowly, tilting his head as he started to explore with the kiss. I felt his tongue brush up against my lips as he closed his eyes and ran his fingers through my hair, tugging on it. I pulled back a little and blushed.

"Victor," I purred out. He purred back loudly then kissed my neck.

"Make an igloo with me," he murmured. "Come on~ We'll make a little love igloo and keep Vlad out~" I laughed before nodding.

"Fine, I'll make one with you," I purred to him before I got up and started to work on one with him. He quickly started to make bricks out of the snow, working quickly as he glanced around our surroundings and began to stack them in an igloo shape, laying out the basics for us. I heard Vlad laughing innocently over where he was before he yelped and fell out of the tree. I laughed as I heard him but kept working with Victor to make the igloo. My boys are wonderful, aren't they?
