“I’m glad somebody thinks so” she smiled. “It’s nice to feel appreciated. I can’t stand the rudeness of some of these people.” Even if this master had ulterior motives in mind, his attitude still made a nice change from the kind of reception she was used to around here.

[itsfanevaduva]

“Yeah,” he gave a small chuckle not wanting to name any names. Fane was sure that his opinion of some of the slaves wasn’t shared with the other slaves and he figured the same probably applied for the masters. “So, you’re a siren right? I’ve never met one before a came here,” he admitted.

[itsfanevaduva]

“Party in my tent! Who’s coming?!!!” He shouted from the entrance to his cabana holding open the flaps and looking around hoping he’d have some takers. He waited a few moments before going back inside, taking a seat, and throwing back a bottle of rum just for the occasion. 

[lupinegeorgia]

“Is that a fucking dolphin?”

[itsfanevaduva]

“Oh shit,” he laughed. “It is. I didn’t think we’d see any out here, especially not by itself. They normally travel in pods ya know?”

Sandcastle Contest

Hearing of the sandcastle contest, Conrad didn’t want to pass up this opportunity to demonstrate his ability. His sandcastle would have to be as impressive as possible. He’d already sketched out the plans for it, now it was time to start building. While he could have done so using magic, that would be cheating, so it was out of the question. Of course, he would delegate the manual labour to slaves, with him overseeing the construction. After rounding up a small team, he set them to work while he looked on. “You there” he called to a passing slave. “I need another pair of hands over here.”

[itsfanevaduva]

Fane was actually excited for the beach party. It would give him a chance to get to know more people on the island and prove himself as a master. Besides, he’d always loved the beach. It reminded him of Liliya, which was hard and when he heard of the sandcastle contest he wrote himself off immediately. The only time he’d ever built one had been with her and other than not having any idea of where to start, it brought up too many memories. When he passed Conrad and his brigade of workers for his masterplan he had to hold back a laugh. “That’s quite an operation you’ve got going there,” he teased.

Hubba hubba

[owenroark-deactivated20151201]

He’d listened intently as Fane spoke about the effects of drugs and alcohol on vampires and how all that worked with feeding. It was all very interesting. Between that and his sudden embarrassment, he had become absorbed enough to miss marking a few turns. Was it a left and two rights? Right, left, right?

He was somewhat preoccupied with that when they entered the…apartment? Suite? It wasn’t over-the-top but compared to a cell it was luxury. He was suddenly struck with the realization that this was the first time he’d been in a master’s quarters under rental. It felt strange, almost surreal, and he hadn’t even done anything yet. Despite Fane’s pleasant, rather charming, demeanor…or maybe even partly because of it, there was a sort of bitter aftertaste to the feeling that Owen couldn’t quite name. 

“Uuummm…yeah, sounds good, what do you got?” He was pulled out of his wandering thoughts by Fane’s question. “You know what, actually, whatever you’re having. I mean, I guess you’ll be having what I’m having anyway, right? So…probably not good to mix too much yeah?” With the exception of ecstasy, Owen was generally not keen on amphetamines, he was usually wound up tight enough as it was. However, if the vampire was going to get wired up on coke or speed, Owen figured it would be a mistake to mellow out.

[itsfanevaduva]

“I’ve got a bit of everything. Oh-” he began only for Owen to change his mind. He heard the wolf out, listening with a smile before responding. “Well you asked for Molly, so I got a bunch of that. I was gonna have some bourbon too, but I’ve got every kind of whiskey you can imagine, rum, vodka, even gin and coke, weed, some pain killers and even some h for old time’s sake since everyone seems to want to know everything about my life here.” The words had left him before he’d really had a chance to think about what he was saying and he immediately regretted it. He stood there for a moment with his mouth open in shock of his own stupidity before speaking.

“Sorry…um… nothing against you. Look my place is your place. Whatever you want at the bar is yours and… here.” He reached behind the bar and pulled out the large stash he’d acquired for the two of them other than the little bit he’d put in his room to make sure he had some left over. He opened the bag and pulled out smaller individual bags of substances and spread them across the counter.

“You can go up or down, I didn’t grab an hallucinogens because they take forever and don’t tend to end well for me,” he explained. “But you’re the one that asked for drugs so have at it,” he offered holding out a hand to allow Owen to pick. “Personally I was planning on coke and molly and bourbon and Irish whiskey. It tends to be a good combination for me, but everyone is different. Aaaand…honestly I was saving going down for when I was alone because it doesn’t always go well…” he admitted reluctantly. It was a pretty personal explanation, but he figured if he gave a reason for his choices Owen would understand and maybe agree.

[bloodykiing]

“That would be correct, yes. I had business to attend to off the Island so I have been away for a while.” He answered before pulling his bag closer to his side at the offer to help and shaking his head. “No need, mate. I might not look it but I can certainly handle a little bag.” He joked before remembering his manners. “The name’s King. Rafferty King but most just call me King. I own the strip club ‘round these parts. You’re one of the new masters, yes?”

[itsfanevaduva]

“Yeah, sure,” he said with a chuckle backing off. He hadn’t meant any offense, he was honestly trying to be helpful. “Yeah, it’s nice to finally meet you King. I’m Fane, Fane Vãduva, well Ștefan, but everyone calls me Fane.” He stepped forward once more to hold out his hand in greeting. “Chloe told me about your place, but I haven’t been yet.”

[lupinegeorgia]

“You’re gonna have to hire me as your therapist if you go into any more detail about your complicated nose.” It was vaguely interesting, especially that his daughter was somehow a wolf, but it wasn’t exactly what she was looking to hear about at the moment. Luckily, he soon seemed to realize this. There was a time and a place, and it was surely after they’d gotten their fixes. Georgia finally nodded, softening at his agreement. Thank fuck he was into drugs, too. “And food,” she added, but that was probably a given. “Real food.” There were a couple more requests circling her thoughts, but this much was better than losing it all by asking too much.

“Let’s go?”

[itsfanevaduva]

He gave a short laugh at her response glad for the sarcasm and the humor because for once it seemed someone didn’t care about his story. He was tired of telling it and was happy for the break in digging up his painful past. It was beginning to seem like no one on the island wanted to allow him to forget it. “Well would we wouldn’t want that,” he teased. “Real food, drugs, and booze, I think I can manage that,” he said with a smile. “Sure! Why not?” He replied jokingly waving the guard over to unlock the cell and get her ready to leave. 

[xchloexhalex]

“But this isn’t just about the rule”, Chloe started, bitting her lip for a moment before letting it go. How stupid would she sound if she talked to the other Master that she actually felt a connection with King? She was definately smarter than that. She gladly listened to his story, smiling brightly as he explained. “Aha! My second guess would be that she got the werewolf gene from her mother”, she giggled in a cute way. “War? You mean as Supernatural war, or Civil War?”, she tried to remember the History class, doing the math in her head to try to figure out how old he was.

[itsfanevaduva]

“Rule? What rule are we talking about here?” He asked with an uneasy laugh wondering if he was breaking some sort of rule simply by talking to her. “Yeah,” he gave a solemn nod, sighing softly through his nose at the thought of Liliya. “No, no, no,” he shook his head quickly trying to clear up her confusion. “This was only a few years ago, like five. A supernatural war in New Orleans. Witches verses vampires for the most part, well not really, I don’t know it was a mess. That’s when I got turned, during all of that.”

[belindalasalle]

“Yes…” she smiled. “But most of the masters here are rather sparing with their compliments… I suppose they don’t want us becoming too complacent. Or they’re simply ungracious” she shrugged.

[itsfanevaduva]

“Well that’s just a shame,” he said with a playful shake of his head. “Someone as gorgeous as you deserves to be showered with compliments. If it goes to your head it’s only fitting,” he teased. The master could see why the others choose not to indulge in complimenting the slaves, but Fane wasn’t like the other masters. 

[conradmagnus]

“Oh, I will… I will…” he replied, his lips curling into a sadistic smile. “That’s good. I like to see the slaves on their best behaviour. But you’ll likely run into some more trouble-makers sooner or later, unfortunately. It often takes a while to break in the new arrivals…” he stated. “Well, I can’t say that I’ve ever seen much of either of those two, but I’m glad you’ve found something to your liking” he nodded. “Yes, I can understand that… it’s amusing when they try to resist, and always satisfying to see them finally submit to you fully.”

[itsfanevaduva]

The smile scared him and he knew the man certainly meant it. It was out of his hands. He just hoped Melody wouldn’t find out he’d said something. He’d never get out of that one. Fane chose not to say anymore on the subject and simply nodded in understanding. “Yeah I mean there are a lot of beautiful people here, lots to choose from,” he said attempting to add something positive. The vampire had a feeling the other had a slightly different view on his statement, but he didn’t want to cause anymore problems. “No one likes someone who’s not into it,” he replied honestly. He was torn between trying to be polite and carry on a conversation with someone clearly important on the island and being true to his beliefs. Unfortunately he had to stick to the former to blend in and save his ass.

[bloodykiing]

“Yes, yes, I know I’m a sight for sore eyes but at least allow me the chance to put down my things before you badger me. One second to settle down is all I’m asking for and then well, you may have at it. I know you lot missed me.”

[itsfanevaduva]

“Uh....I’ve never met you, but I’m guessing you were gone for a while or something? I can help with your stuff or whatever?” He offered wanting to appear helpful instead of confused and put off. The vampire didn’t want to start anything with any of the masters, especially not an attractive werewolf like the man before him.

[belindalasalle]

“These outfits really don’t leave a lot to the imagination, do they? Not that I’m at all surprised by that. Well, it’s nice to have some fresh new clothes, for once…”

[itsfanevaduva]

“If you can call those clothes,” he teased. “But I’m kind of torn about where to look,” the vampire admitted with a smirk. “You’re beautiful, but I’m sure you hear that all the time.”

[xchloexhalex]

Chloe laughed softly, “What can I tell in my defense, I was born with this cute face”, she smirked. “But his possessiviness put me more out of trouble than in. I feel protect by it, you know”, she shrugged with another smirk. She listened to his story and nodded. “Wouldn’t you be a werewolf too? Or the vampirism blocked that part of you?”, she asked him. Chloe wanted to know more about their species, and since she started living with Rafferty, she grew fan of werewolves as well. “Is she coming to join you?”

[itsfanevaduva]

“Yeah, I’m sure you were,” he responded with a smile beginning to worry just a little about flirting with the taken slave with a possessive master. “I’m sure it protects you. I know being claimed does.” Her attitude alone proved that to him, but he knew there was more. “No,” he shook his head realizing the only way it would make sense would be for him to explain it all to her. He sighed heavily before beginning. “Hannah’s mother was a werewolf, I was a human. I found out about her and went to be with her, but there was this crazy war so I got turned in hopes of protecting her. I found some shit out and her pack brainwashed her so I haven’t seen her since I left New Orleans four years ago.” He hoped that would be enough explanation because he was growing tired of ripping open wounds that had only just begun to heal.

[conradmagnus]

He chuckled as the other master listed his complaints. “Yes, she certainly sounds like she could stand to learn a thing or two. You can rest assured, I’ll see to it that she’s whipped into shape…” he smirked, already enjoying the thought of punishing her. “Are there any other slaves that have been giving you trouble?” he wondered. “Or perhaps, slaves that you’ve taken an interest in? Don’t hesitate to rent them out if you like what you see. They live to serve us.”

[itsfanevaduva]

Fane knew he meant literally whipped and wished he could take his words back, but it was too late. “Just educate her,” he added tersely, hoping it would be more than just a senseless beating. “No,” he answered honestly. Well there was Willow, but that was nothing compared to his interaction with Melody. “I’ve spent time with Maia and Owen, taking them out I mean. They’re really different,” he chuckled, “but I liked both of them. I kinda have a thing for werewolves,” he admitted with shy smile. “I don’t mind a little push back as long as they submit in the end,” he grin broadened.

[xchloexhalex]

Chloe felt comfortable near him, he didn’t look like he’d torture or hurt her when she least expected. “He’s kind of blunty, specially with other males around me, but he’s a gentleman. He owns the gentleman’s club, I can take you there if you want”, she suggested with a small smile. “You have a daughter? How something like that can even be possible?”, she didn’t want to sound rude, but this was the first time she had heard of something like that. 

[itsfanevaduva]

“Well that’s understandable,” he teased. Fane had been known to be jealous, but in a place like this where people were property, it made even more sense for her master to be possessive. “Yeah… it was when I was still human. It’s actually why I became a vampire in the first place, to protect her. It’s a complicated situation.” He felt like he’d told it a million times since coming to the island, but he supposed it was necessary to an extent. Saying he preferred werewolves over his own kind was a statement that needed support.
