Vampyre Blood

Chapter Eight

          “Are you ready to play the trickster?”   Manfred asked Illaria.   She put her hands to her face and rubbed them over her face and head.   Her hair changed to gray and the skin wrinkled.   She smiled and looked at her brother.

          “I am now.”   She turns to look at the portal.   “Wish me luck.”   She says as she starts walking towards it.

          “Good luck, little sister.”   He says as he waves.

          Berries eyes opened as the light hit them.   His eyes shift over to stare straight into purple eyes.   “Good, you are awake.   I was hoping to talk to you before I leave.”   Raven said as he ran his hand over Berries whiskered cheeks.

          “I’m glad you waited.   I wanted you to remember to follow the plan.”   Berries said.

          “Okay, I will, love.”   He kissed him.   “So, could you protect Illaria for Lord Waltorana?”

          “You bet, Raven.”   He kissed him deeply.   “Love you.”   He said as his mate disappears.

          “Yuuri, are you okay?”   Wolfram asked as his husband vomited in the toilet.   The black haired man glared at him from under his bangs.

          “What do you think?”   He asks his wife and life mate.   “I’m over here having fun emptying the contents of my stomach and having while tasting it.”

          “I think I can do without the smartass comments though.”   Wolfram frowned.   He walked over to the bed, plopped down, and started pouting.

          “Love, how long do you plan for us to stay here for?”   Shori asked.   He was looking out their window at all of the Chevaliers that are guarding the castle.

          “Till Uncle Bob cools his temper and your little brother gets out of danger.”   Arisa said while filing her nails.   He is showing more panic on his face.

          “Yuuri’s in danger?”   He looked quickly at his mate.

          “You haven’t noticed?”   She looked at him as if he is stupid.

          “Notice what?”   He starts getting nervous.

          “Someone wants your little brother.”   She said as if it was as plain as day.

          Waltorana felt Illaria walk through the portal.   He smiled as he looked out the window.   “Be careful, my love.”
