“Oh, great,” she said with a relieved sigh, proud that she had somehow managed to find shelter even though she knew virtually nothing about this world. For a second, she thought she might stand a chance living amongst humans, no matter how clueless she was. If she could figure this out, she could figure out anything, right?

“Thank you so much, I’m new here and I don’t have a home yet,” she explained, even though he hadn’t exactly asked. Blame it on her excitement. “I’m Sierra, what’s your name?” It was short lived, however, and replaced with confusion when he mentioned two things she had never hear of before—cash or credit.

“I don’t have credit. Or cash. I don’t have anything to pay with,” she said quietly, a little defeated. “All I have on me are some sea shells.”

new here. well, that wasn’t surprising, but carter couldn’t keep himself from wondering if she only meant this town. the female looked like a human, sure, but so did he... and he certainly wasn’t human. “ah. where are you from?” he questioned with a polite smile, if only to make her feel comfortable enough to open up to him. “i’m carter.” 

the vampire raised his eyebrows at her obvious confusion. it only fueled his theory about her species, but it wasn’t until she mentioned sea shells that it clicked. carter could be wrong, of course, but something told him he wasn’t. so that meant he was most likely having his first encounter with a mermaid. interesting. very interesting. 

“it’s okay. don’t worry about it.” as much as he loved making profit, he was too intrigued to send her away. “i will show you your room. i’m sure we can figure something out.”

Sierra wasn’t sure what possessed her. She was happy underwater, she knew what to expect there. She had family, friends and was just comfortable. Except comfortable was redundant and overtime got plain boring. The mermaid always felt like her life was missing something and she figured she’d tried to find what that was. 

Wearing some weird clothes she had found on someone’s clothesline, she tried to figure out what the next step was. She needed a place to sleep for starter, but that seemed easier said than done. Where did humans even sleep? 

The mermaid was wandering downtown when she overheard a family talk about how they were going to sleep at the hotel. Initially, she was confused as to what exactly a hotel was, but she eventually figured it out thanks to the huge ‘hotel’ sign in front of a very imposing building. 

She was looking around the lobby in confusion, wondering where people slept, when she heard a voice coming from behind a counter. The brunette looked behind her, making sure he was talking to her, before taking a hesitant step forward. “Hello, hm, I overheard people say they were going to sleep here tonight,” she said with a smile, trying to hide her obvious inexperience when it came to everything human. “Do you think I could also sleep here? If there’s room.”

"oh, there’s plenty of room.” the vampire replied with a quiet chuckle. sure, this town was not exactly the upper east side, but it was getting more popular and he wanted to be prepared. business was booming and it would certainly continue to do so. just as he would continue to make this place bigger and better. 

still, none of his thoughts about the future distracted him from the fact that this woman was strange. the way she hesitated, the way she talked. it was like she came from another planet. even the most provincial places had hotels these days, no? yet, it almost seemed like she had no real idea how this worked. but maybe she was just shy, or something. 

“you can sleep here and use the other services, of course.” carter answered while he turned to the computer so he could enter her details. “what’s your name?” he questioned with an absentminded, professional smile, keeping his eyes on the screen for a moment longer. “and how would you prefer to pay? cash or credit?”

lost. 

that was the perfect word to describe the look on the female’s face as she walked into his hotel. it surprised carter, to say the least. there was just something about her expression - something he’d never seen before and he couldn’t deny that it sparked curiosity inside of him. 

maybe it was her lucky day that he was at the reception right now. maybe it would turn out to be the worst day of her life, but that was something only time could show. 

“can i help you, miss?” he questioned before he started to look her up and down. carter really couldn’t put his finger on it; there was just something that made him feel... strange.

“No just drop by tomorrow evening” She tilted her head and cocked an eyebrow skeptically.  “That remains to be seen. But I suppose you are on the right track since you did hire me after all.”

"fine. i will.” 

the vampire grinned at her words before he shrugged his shoulders. “everyone says you’re the best. i basically had to hire you.”

“Like a werewolf mask that would be terrifying on a man looks super cute on a small child“ She offered an example with confidence “I wasn’t fishing for a invite by the way.” Freddi clarified   “But if you want to, It would be really fun!” By fun she meant she’d be terrified the entire time but not hating it.  

"come on. they aren’t even creepy. you can see that it’s a mask.” no matter if a man or a child wore it. “then let’s do it. and don’t worry. i didn’t think you were fishing for an invitation.”

“these share a coke with …. are so stupid. — your name doesn’t have to be todd, does it??”

[dcvilsspawn-blog]

"not stupid. i’m so not sharing a coke with you unless you find a bottle with my name on it.”

“What do you think? Red dress for tonight, or the blue one from earlier?” Madeline asked, holding up the dress in question for opinions. She was never very good at deciding fashion on her own, especially when it came to fancy dresses. “Ugh. I can’t dress up to save my life.”

"red. the red one is looking more gorgeous on you.”

"you’re just as annoying, little witch.” and maybe that was what fueled his desire in the first place. annoyance was a powerful thing after all.

the vampire continued to trace his hands over her body and he chuckled quietly at her words. “i do like being in control... i wanted to see what you could do.” it didn’t mean that he would let her have it for the rest of the night, far from it. he was only offering her the chance to play a bit. 

“fuck.” he groaned slightly at the warmth of her hand, instinctively bucking his hips into her touch before he shook his head in amusement. “and you say i’m taking too much time? look at you, ren.” maybe it would be more fun to re-claim his control after all.

“It is because unlike you, drinking blood isn’t part of our diet regime. If you’re forgotten, it’s not like it’s part of our menu like it is yours.” She rolled her eyes. “I’ll heal without any help, it’s not like I’m dying, boss.” The cat muttered while still cradling her arm. 

“Fucking people, who the hell hits a cat that hard?!” She didn’t know if she was mad at the fact that she slipped up, or the fact that those people might have treated other animals the same way. 

"i could still fire you for disobeying my orders.” and amaryllis knew carter so she had to know that he was serious about things like that. 

the vampire’s face stayed serious - he couldn’t agree more. he wasn’t above hurting people, obviously, but animals were a different thing. even in a case like hers where the animal certainly wasn’t a kind, innocent creature.

“wanna tell me who it was? i could use some snacks.”

“i hope not.” she said checking her phone just in case she somehow missed a phone call or text. 

she nod her head understanding what the male was talking about. “i can respect that, you’re not a people person.” she took the shot that she’s been babysitting in her hands for bit. she sat the empty glass on the coffee table in front of them

she descied against it. “nevermind.” she said slightly shaking her head. deciding it was best not to ask him. “sorry.” eva looked around at her surrounding. 

the vampire nodded his head at her words - it would be rude if her friend stood her up, so maybe she was in luck and the other girl would show up soon. 

“yeah. definitely not a people person.” he confirmed while drank his own shot of alcohol.

it surprised him that she changed her mind, but who was he to complain? “alright. let me know if you change your mind.” again.

“Besides the cute creepy like Halloween decorations and spooky stuff.” She chuckled “I don’t shy away from it either I just don’t watch that type of movie alone. I’ve been meaning to watch Split but my brother is still recovering from Get Out” 

"how can it be creepy and cute at the same time?” he questioned with a slight grin. “well. i wouldn’t mind watching it with you. unless that’s too creepy for you?”

placing down the glass in his hand to pour an another one, he eyed the man before him. “trust me, the other options were even WORSE.” a drug dealer out of a deputy? that was worse. not an underground fighter. loosening a bit with the drink, he teased lightly. “why though, carter, you have any PROBLEM hanging out with a man like me?”

"worse, huh? how so?” he wondered while he poured himself another shot as well. the male’s question made him chuckle and carter shook his head before he downed his drink. “why would i have a problem with it? you bring me a great deal of amusement. maybe i just think a man like you has potential.”

“Yeah, I get that. People always want to say something to make it better, but there’s really nothing to say to fix something like that, is there?” Scout said with an understanding smile. She had lost her parents as well and people rarely talked about it anymore, but she had gotten the comforting speech from social workers at first. “Car accident. Not the way I want to go. Well, here’s to your parents,” she said, lifting her glass in his direction.

"there isn’t.” and carter knew that there would not ever be - no matter how many centuries passed. 

the vampire raised his glass and he took a sip before he placed it back on the table. 

“now do tell me... what brings you out here? alone?”

the blonde’s eyes narrowed for a moment before her expression softened considerably. “fine,” she agreed, ready to follow him — admittedly, against her better judgement. “where are we going, anyway?”

his mood was lightening up - the promise of blood always managed to do so and he still liked having cassie around. even if she didn’t feel the same way about him. 

“the bar.” she could probably use some liquid courage. besides, it was just so easy to find willing victims where alcohol was involved.

He didn’t really seem to buy her lie, but at least he wasn’t insistent about it. She found that the more she was asked to explain herself, the less believable she sounded. Last thing she needed was for even more people to know what she was. 

“You know, I thought you were really grumpy when we first met, but you’re actually kind of nice,” she told him with a smile. He probably wouldn’t like her saying so very much, but he had gone from wanting nothing to do with her to wanting to help her pretty quickly. “So, you’ll let me stay here out of the goodness of your heart? Without expecting anything in return? Because if so, I’m in.”

“I mean, I’m sure he likes me. He just doesn’t like me like I like him,” she explained with a shrug. “I doubt it. He’s usually pretty straightforward. If he said he doesn’t like me, he probably doesn’t.” The second option seemed to be more accurate and she nodded sadly in response. “It was pretty embarrassing. I’m pretty sure he’s never turned down anyone ever.”

the vampire could only roll his eyes at her once she claimed that he was nice. truth be told; he really wasn’t... and it was really foolish to think other wise. “if you say so.” he mumbled before he shrugged his shoulders. 

“out of the goodness of my heart sounds a little... extreme.” especially considering that his heart was dead. “but i am not expecting anything in return, no.” there was not much she could give him that he didn’t have anyway. 

carter listened to her words, studying her reactions before he answered. “either way, it sounds like you are special to him. i thought that’s what girls want to be.”

“yeah, yeah, i’ll come with.” cassie agreed, her tone a little dryer than usual. she was normally quite upbeat, but the fear of the unknown and the fear of… knowing what carter was capable of was causing her mood to shift slightly. finishing what was left of her glass, cassie set it down on the table with a small clink and rose from her seat. “should i be afraid — or?”

"alright.” the vampire noticed the different tone in her voice and he honestly couldn’t say that he blamed her for that either. not after everything that he did to her... but he wouldn’t force her to come, so there was no need to be afraid. 

“no, not at all. i only want you to get something good to eat.” and bears, for god’s sake, simply wouldn’t do.
