Safe & Sound

 Don’t be silly. Now why would I go and do that? Only bastards hit women. I’ll content m’self with that vampire. D somethin’, I think.

          "Just a suggestion. D? Can't say I've met him yet."

       "We're still working on it. Would it be appropriate if I met her?"

The difference is half of you haven’t been through the shit I’ve been. I can’t be trapped. I need to do some fuckin’ exercise dayly, I need the fights, I need to breath …I’m going to get myself fuckin’ dead if I don’t get out.

       "Well, if it helps... you could always punch me."

         "Well I certainly like the idea of protection a lot better than violence."

          "How much do you... like her?"

"What’s wrong with that?"

        "Well, I could go down a long list, but you wouldn't want to keep her waiting."

"Well isn’t that fan-fuckin’-tastic. I just realized my career is over."

             "I'm really sorry. Every human here is going through the same thing."

        "Lovely. Just lovely."

     "Ah, yes. Such a hard choice. Which human to enslave for the rest of their lives."

        "Alright I'll go back to my cell, then. Have a good evening, Alex."

        "Well, my cell isn't exactly cozy..." Cassia bit her lip, holding back questions. Why hadn't he just suggested his room yet?

Suppressing the need to fight for some affection, Alexander leans back on his heels and takes a quick look-around. “Feel like some coffee?”

       "Those don't sound like the words of someone who wants to sleep." Cassia smirked, nudging him slightly.

        "I'm not sure."

"You should wish they wouldn’t for their own good." He said very purr-like as warm huffs of air escaped his lips. "Should we call this off, for today? I can’t deny it was a very heart-to-heart conversation, but I’m exhausted. I want to sleep, kiss it better, get it behind me."

      "Right, um, of course." Cassia let a small smile form on her lips. She was tired too, but she wasn't really looking forward to another night in a cell.

Are ‘them’ really monsters or jus’ freaks? ‘Cause I need t’call my brother. Like really need to.

      "They... they aren't all monsters. But, in our mythologies sense of the word, yeah. They are. We aren't really allowed."
