         “Don’t worry about it,” his voice showed his obvious exhaustion, he’d been through some ordeal, that much was clear by the blood staining his shirt; some his own but mostly that of the creature he had met in the deep darkness of an abandoned building. Some case of a missing girl, Jake was sure there was more information that was missed by the humans that had headed the investigation originally. There was more and it came in the form of a creature that had left a good few markings on Jake, one’s hidden partially by the nearly shredded shirt he had on. He was irritated and thus snapped at the brunette he’d gone to, not necessarily for his wounds to be tended to-- it was more so because he felt safe and could rationalize his thoughts better with her around.

           There’s empty beer bottles all over the coffee table in Jake’s living room and he’s about to open wine -- a disaster idea that in his state seems like a brilliant one. The most probable outcome is going to be a horrible hangover but he doesn’t seem to be bothered by that right now at all. The screw cap falls to the floor, it’s a cheap one, and he leaves it in favor of taking a swig straight from the bottle and when he’s done, he stretches his hand out, offering the alcohol to Rhys. “It’s not as bad as I thought it would be when I was buying it. Got it on like a two for one thing, I have the other in the fridge still,” his words come out slurred, a lot. He’s definitely lost count of how many drinks he’s had, maybe it’s better this way, he can enjoy himself without worrying about the effects it’s all gonna have on him tomorrow. Jake sighs heavily and leans back against the couch. “Remember when we used to ditch class and go drink at the lake? God, I can’t even count how many lectures I used to get from Charlie about how I should not be doing that. Also, he had some weird obsession with you being a bad influence. Right.”

      “Look, I came here to help— I can’t do that if you don’t let me, now what’s going on?” He’s concerned, yes, but it is also his job– of course, Jake is not getting paid for this consolation but it sure as hell looks like it due to the fact he is strapped up in a suit and tie– something he has yet to loosen. It is more than obvious he’s stressed but he’s there for the other person, not himself, Jake always was a giver.

 “Seriously–” Jake paused to look at the other in the car. “Stop talking, we’re on a stake out not a date, you don’t have to tell me your life story because you’re bored.” 

This really wasn’t his sort of thing, this whole investigation thing– Jake was a lawyer, yes, but rarely did he need to go to such extreme measures to get evidence on someone. The only reason he had agreed was because it was necessary and, well, he didn’t really sleep anyways and this was a better thing to do with his time instead of slaving over papers at home or late into the night in his office.

But this was not at all how he expected it to go, not only was his client talking none stop but the perpetrator they were after hadn’t even shown up after seven hours and Jake was getting restless, not to mention hungry. Annoyed and in need of some sort of sustenance, Jake sighed heavily, returning his gaze to the house that they had been watching half the night.

@wildborne plotted for a starter

     It was late as Jake stepped out of his sleek black Mercedes and headed towards the police station, before he’d even reached the steps he felt it, the power. The feeling was something that rarely faltered him in a confident and dominant stride, this time, there was a slight peak of cautious intrigue, something only another predator would feel. As Jake threw open the doors to the station he knew this was going to be a trial-some evening, attentive eyes found the officer behind the receptionists desk and the tall dark eyed man flashed a professional smile in greeting before he emptied his pockets into a container that the woman had sat in wait of his items. The lawyer had been through this process several times and it was not his first time to this particular police station, after signing in Jake moved around through the metal detectors before he was returned his things and greeted by the arresting officer. From the second the two shook hands the arresting officer was all talk, which often was difficult for the lawyer to obtain, a talkative police officer. All the man could go on about was how strange the suspect was, her eyes being the main point of the conversation back to the interrogation room in which Jake’s newest client sat. 

      Pausing at the door to allow the officer to finish speaking Jake simply nodded before he proceeded to enter, gaze first going to the other officer that was in the room standing near the door as if he were afraid of the slender brunette woman that sat chained to the interrogation table. The vampire huffed a breath and nodded towards the woman. “May I please have my client uncuffed and perhaps,” his gaze darted to do a once over of the woman. “Some coffee?” It was a question aimed at his client to see if there was anything else she may like, it was his first priority to get the whole story and what would help his client, there was no mistaking she was strong, some creature he had not come across in all his time as a lawyer, there was a first time for all things though.

❤ to learn about my character’s past relationships

    Jake married when he was young, he fell head over heels with Glenda, she was young and full of life and he was just starting out in his legal career, they were happy though. Her father was a humble pastor, didn’t make much but brought up Glenda on his own and Jake couldn’t have been a more suitable match for her. After getting married, they had two children, a boy and a little girl and they were the soul of Jake, he really was happy, loved them all with everything in his being. 

     Then he met Clancy, the man he became legal partners with and eventually lovers, the first time anything remotely sexual/romantic happened they both were intoxicated, celebrating some big advance in their careers. It was a fairly toxic relationship in the sense that Jake felt helpless because he was afraid of hurting Glenda and his family, Clancy didn’t really care but that made more sense when Clancy turned out to be a Vampire and was the one who changed Jake. 

      Ultimately, both his relationships ended in torment and death. Clancy is still alive as far as Jake knows. 

☢ to learn about my character’s phobias

    I guess he’s afraid of hurting people, he doesn’t like being a Vampire, hates it, in fact, he’d rather be snuffed out before he hurts anyone else, but he’s been doing alright with helping people instead of devouring them. He’s also very paranoid around other Vampires, mostly because his past interactions with them weren’t good. 

    As far as irrational fears go, Jake doesn’t really have any, so to speak. He’s really just afraid of hurting people (which is why he’s hesitant to getting attached to people).

An Extremely Self-Indulgent Meme

"It's nothing." Molly had attempted to duck the touch, just as she'd done twice already that evening. And while before she'd been successful, she hadn't been so successful this time around. The bruise gracing her cheek is about a day old, relatively fresh and still sore. It's something she'd been getting used to, but for someone like Jake? It wouldn't likely be something he'd let pass by without notice.

"It's nothing." She repeats again, a little more quietly, and she attempted to ignore the intimacy of the gesture. To her, it was exactly that. "I think you're just looking for a reason to fuss over me. Should I be flattered?"
