The master approaches, silent but determined, he touches his pupil's shoulder…

— I hope I don't interrupt your loneliness, I'm in a totally new place for me… after many years I feel a little lost.

[diaboluserebus]

He had been in a dark place mentally; the past few weeks, even months, had been difficult for him to endure. He thought that being in this new place would help him feel more grounded, but darkness followed him everywhere. He cherished the time spent with Sybelle, but it wasn't the same. His heart felt lost, and so did his mind.

After attempting to wash away the ugly feelings that clung to him, he sat on the window ledge, taking a drag from his cigarette and gazing into the night, which had become his only companion these days. The night wrapped around him like a blanket, soothing his troubled mind.

He found solace in his thoughts, often retreating there to seek comfort in old memories when he felt a gentle touch on his shoulder and then heard his master's voice.

Armand didn't hesitate to turn his head and look up at him. He deeply resonated with the words his master spoke, as they echoed his own feelings about being so far from his original home. His hand instinctively wrapped around his master's wrist, pulling him closer and wrapping his arms around him, creating no space between them as he pressed his body into his.

“No, you don’t interrupt my loneliness. You never do; you are always the one I want with me. I know that feeling too, having wished so many times for you to be here with me. Tell me what you need so we can ease this lost feeling a little,” he whispered closely against his ear, resting his chin on his shoulder.

“I hope you don’t mind the blood… I was on the hunt, and it got a little messy tonight.”

The boy was watching with genuine interest as his master worked, sensing that it was one of his new projects.

"Did you think of me when you started to draw it?"

@sonataforsybelle "It's time to bother my favourite child again." He was gone too long and now he looked for her and where she have been.

"Sybelle, where are you?"

Ambitions ; Sybelle & Armand

@diaboluserebus

Bored of only hunting for the weak and forgotten, the ones nobody would miss as Marius put it, Sybelle had taken an interest for a whole other kind of prey. No seedy murderer or drugged out man living in the outskirts of society, no, the one Sybelle had been watching for several nights was the well-known and well-educated man.

Carl Jefferson owned a bank, no less, and danced his way seemlessly among the privileged crowd and sophisticated invite-only parties. Sybelle was no stranger to those. A lifetime ago her brother would attend on her behalf, soaking up the praise and adoration that she never had any interest in. He wouldn't have taken her, as she didn't know how to act normal, or so he said. She had never wanted to go anyway.

Sybelle also knew too well that as powerful men passed themselves off as sophisticated and virtuous, they turned into monsters behind closed doors. Jefferson had a wife, or truth be told a captive in a gilded cage, unable to break free of her abusive monster of a husband. And then there was the human trafficking ring with the young women, something she could barely stomach.

She'd been watching him for several nights now. It was taking all her willpower not to barge in just now and kill him, but somehow she wanted to make the hunt last.

Sybelle wanted a real hunt. And Sybelle never, ever, hid anything from Armand.

When she got home to Trinity Gate that night, she found her mentor and immediately plopped down the couch besides him with no preambule. Wordlessly, she projected images of the man she was after. His investments into firearms and wars. The monster-husband and the violence in his uptown luxurious penthouse. The money to shut the police up.

"Armand, I want him. I want to kill him."

Society would always, always protect such men. Wasn't it good, if, as vampires, they could change that ? If Armand told her this was too dangerous, she would obey, but she hoped he'd be interested in helping her.

He had spent most of the evening in his office, trying to get an overview of some finances. He never liked doing those but they were important. His gaze went to the clock which was a very old one hanging on the wall, reminding him that he had spent most of the time on those numbers. Exhausted he rubbed his eyes, he shouldn't feel like this he was a vampire but here he was and felt it and leaned back in his chair. The mind wandered to Daniel, the man was not here tonight he told him that he wanted to spend some time alone and Armand had let him even though he wished he had stayed with him.

The time passed a little bit more and he stood up to get out of his office and more comfortable. The sofa was the right place to be right now, the view he had there over the whole city and where he could watch the sky, it gave him some kind of peace. Then he noticed that he wasn't alone anymore and he knew who it was it was Sybelle and he was right there because she plopped right next to him and before he could welcome her back home he got a wave of images of a man, he felt her emotions and he slowly turned his gaze towards her.

"Is that what I have taught you? I don't think he is the right person." He said in a calm voice, he knew what it meant when they would kill someone like him and what attention they would get through this. He was always careful and he knew Sybelle had a certain taste and it was always a challenge to control her there.

And he will spend his night wandering through the streets, because his mood is calling for it.
