[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
Dilandau entered his room followed by Ray. He hadn’t even looked at her as the walked, even though he kept hold of her wrist. Upon closing the door behind her he locked it and grabbed her wrist forcing her to look at him. She stared at him, pity in her eyes, as she knew what was coming. He hit her in the face, but kept hold of her so she didn’t fall, he pulled her back and hit her again, this time letting her fall to the ground. He knelt down and took the belt, sheath, and sword. He stepped over her and placed in on the wall. Ray rolled onto her back as he went and laid on his bed. She lay there, on the cold marble, with her hands behind her head.

“What are you doing?” He growled.

“Watching the ceiling.”

“You’re what?” He sat up on his elbows.

She laid on her side to face him. “You deserved it you know.”

“For what?” He demanded angrily ready to get up and hit her again.

“For what you did to me that night!” She snapped. She then got up and walked over to her bag. She rummaged through it for a moment then pulled out a book.

“What are you doing?”

“What the hell do you care, bastard?” She asked as she lay on the couch. She started to read for a while until she turned onto her side.

Dilandau heard her move and heard her sit up and swing her legs off the psyche-couch. He rolled onto his stomach and watched her rub her shoulder. He stood up and walked over to her. She pretended not to notice him, until he sat behind her his legs on either side of her. He quickly wrapped an arm around her waist holding her in place.

“Let me go you fucking jerk!” She said quickly as she tried to stand up again.

He held her there tightly. “Calm down, I won’t do anything.” She tried to get up again. “Stay still!” He slammed her back down in front of him. He used his free hand to start to rub her shoulder.

It took him awhile before he could let her waist go. He rubbed her back and shoulders. He slowly moved his lips from the top of her arm to her neck. He pushed her hair away with his chin while his hands ran up and down her arms. He felt goose bumps run with his hands. He kissed her neck and ear as he rubbed her back, moving to her thighs and back again. Soon he kept his hands on her thighs creeping inward. She suddenly stood up and faced him. She backed away from him slowly shaking her head.

“Ray…come here.” Dilandau said as he stood up. She continued to back away shaking her head again. Dilandau followed a few feet before stopping, it was hopeless, she wasn’t going to let him near. He sighed and went to lie on his bed, after picking up her book. She stood where she was and watched the floor as it showed a blurry version of his shadow.

Dilandau flicked through her book. “You can sit back down.” He said quietly. He looked over at her for a second then turned back to her book.

So far, as he glanced through it, it was about a young girl who ran away from home and was captured by a heartless warlord who was abusive to her. Suddenly the book was pulled from his fingers.

“HEY!” He yelled but he found her finger against his lips.

She sat down next to him and began to kiss his neck. He wrapped an arm around her waist pulling her away from his neck and back down to his lips. He suddenly pulled her over top of him and onto the bed so she was lying on her back and he leaning over her. He ran his fingers down her arm as his tongue entered her mouth. He kissed her gently as he touched her stomach, arms, neck and face. He moved his lips to her collarbone. When he went back to her lips and touched her face with his hand he felt a slight dampness. He pulled away and saw she was crying from closed eyes.

“Ray?” He asked. She was breathing slow and even while her heart was slow. ‘I didn’t even speed up her pulse!’ Dilandau was disgusted with himself. ‘Why the hell is she crying, I can’t be that bad. He lay on his back for a while. ‘My heart is racing and hers didn’t even speed up!’ Dilandau stood up. ‘I have to get back to my damn Slayers…I’ll give her a separate room later. I’ll also call Lilly to my room later, I can’t be that bad.” He growled and left as she slept in his bed.

‘I can’t believe I just did that. But we are even now. He raped me, I kicked his ass and I just used him to help forget the other jerk on Earth. I guess we’re even, more or less.’ She sighed and finally fell asleep.

Dilandau returned to find Ray eating some fruit for a snack and watching the clouds float by from the window.

He walked over and stood beside her, but she refused to look at him. He watched her eat for a while, then turned to the clouds himself. ‘Yes I’ll give her that separate room, I need to get away from her! Good thing I found that one, it’s perfect, that girl Slayer did have some uses.’

“I have a surprise for you.” He said quietly.

“What? I’m not in the mood for another fight.” She sighed.

“No, just come with me.” He took her wrist. She pulled it away quickly and started for the door. Dilandau sighed and followed, once again she waited at the door for him. “It’s not locked.” He said as he opened it.

Together they walked straight down a numerous amount of hallways, passed the training room where they heard the clang of metal of swords and weights.

“You can go there if ever you want to work out, but you will have to arrange it with me, so I can take you there.”

“And lock me in there alone, right?” She replied coldly.

“I don’t need you leading another revolt in the dungeons.”

“I wouldn’t dream of it.” She growled and followed him as they continued down a long way down another hallway.

“Ok stop.” He said and slowly covered her eyes.

‘What the hell is he doing!?’ She thought as she heard the door that they had been standing in front of slide open. He pulled her in. “If you think, for just one second that…” She began to threaten as Dilandau pulled his hand away, “I am going to love you forever and ever, YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!!” She yelled as she stepped forward.

“For you.” He explained.

“You’ve got to be shitting me!!!” She yelled.

‘She swears even when it’s a good thing.’ Dilandau smiled. “For you.” He repeated with a nod.

She stepped forward to get a better look at the room. It was black walls, ceiling and black marble floor. Shimmering silver fabric covered the canopy bed, chairs and couches. Everything was constructed with hard black wood. The black marble fireplace was surrounded by two chairs, and a couch covered in silver.

“Do you like it?” He asked.

“Hell yes!” She replied. Ray then turned and faced him. “Why?” She asked suspiciously.

Dilandau shrugged, “I felt like it.”

“This was her room wasn’t it?” Ray asked looking around at the sword rack.

“Yes. So?”

“Did you love her?” Ray asked turning and walking away a few steps so that if he was going to hit her she’d have somewhat of a fair chance.

“She was a very good fighter.”

“So you did love her.”

“No.” He stated plainly, closing the subject.

“Fine, whatever you say lover boy.” She walked over to the fireplace and sat on the couch, noting the wood readily cut and stacked. Dilandau went and sat with her.

“Like I said before, you will need an escort.”

“And to be locked in every room I am in.” She scowled.

“I don’t need you running through the Vione until I am sure that you won’t go on a killing spree.” He smiled and rested a hand on her knee. She crossed her legs, pulling away from his hand. Dilandau drew back and placed it on his knee. “And I’ll be back and 6:50 for you.”

“And just where the hell are we going? I’d like to spend the night in MY room.” She growled.

“Yes, you will, but we are going out so be ready.”

“And what should I wear oh great Dilandau?” She asked sarcastically.

“Look in the closet.” He replied. “I’m going to go now.”

“And I won’t miss you.”

“You will eventually, it gets lonely in these big rooms.” He replied and left.

“I’m sure that you would know.” She said quietly as the door slid shut. Once the sound of his boots faded from her ears she rose and walked over to the wardrobe. She opened it and saw a beautiful dress. It had slits up each side that would reach above her hips, a silk black sash was hung on the hanger while a pair of black heels sat at the bottom of the wardrobe. The front was low and would show off her cleavage for sure, The shoulder straps would just hang on her shoulders as they transformed themselves into tight sleeves that had a large slit on the outside on them that would reach from her shoulder to her elbow, then reached halfway to her wrist, then fell into large open sleeves which hung down to her knees if she was to hang her arms down. (A/N Think Britney Spears’ shirt at the end of Crossroads when she’s singin’) “Very cool. Kind of weird, but cool.” She smiled and took the dress and shoes out and laid them on one of the couches.

She walked around her room slowly finding little surprises here and there, like the beautiful black diamond necklace, earrings and bracelet. She left them on the table in front of the mirror and travelled into the bathroom. On the counter there was a large basket filled with roses. She picked up one, carefully avoiding the thorns and quickly caught it’s scent. It was even better then the roses on Earth, although it was smaller and the thorns were black. She then placed the lone flower in the black marble counter. The walls were white marble but everything else was of back, ever the mirror’s frame.

Ray noticed that there was steamy hot water the tube. ‘Thank god.’ She thought as she stripped and climbed in. She glanced at the timepiece in the bathroom with her, it had taken her awhile but she had learned how to read them. ‘So if it’s 5:00 now…Not wait I forgot that hand, so it’s 5:30. Ok then, I’ll be nice and dry when he does get here. She sighed and sunk her head under the water before coming up and relaxing completely.

Dilandau entered his now empty room. He caught himself looking around for any sign that she had been there at all, and there it was. Her bag was still sitting on the chair. He picked it up as he passed by, grabbed the book off of the floor and went to his bed. He dropped it beside the bedpost so that he didn’t forget to grab it when he left. He lay on his back and watched the ceiling. ‘I see why she does this, It’s kind of relaxing.’ With that he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Lilly opened the door to her master’s room, to her delight he was asleep. She crept across the marble floor and onto his bed. She straddled him as he slept. ‘I bet that girl can’t do anything as good as me, can she master…’ She thought as she leaned down and instantly assaulted his neck. She knew all the spots that he loved to have touched and vice versa. She felt his hands slid up the back of her shirt pulling her down with more force. ‘I bet this is a pleasant way to wake up.’ She smiled as she placed a hand on his chest and felt his heart increase slightly. She continued her assault as he pulled her down, almost crushing her with his strength of desire.

“Ray…” He whispered.

Lilly shot up right and looked at him, disgusted.

“Why’d you stop?” He asked smoothly with closed eyes.

“Why don’t you open your eyes and look, master.” She allowed the last word to practically hang in the air dripping with distaste.

Dilandau’s eyes flew open and he saw the dark haired woman sitting on his hips was not the owner of the name he had whispered in pleasure.

Lilly tried to climb off of him, put he grabbed her behind the knees and held her in place.

“Let. Me. Go.” She growled. Dilandau just looked at her blankly. “NOW!” She shouted.

He finally released her, “Get out, and if you speak to anyone about this, I’ll have you thrown off the Vione. And don’t think that I wouldn’t, remember that last girl.” Dilandau growled back. She stood and bowed her head to him, then exited hastily. Dilandau lay there for a short while before turning his head to the clock. ‘Damn! It’s already 6!’ He thought as he stood slowly and leisurely went to his wardrobe, not too worried that he would be late for one event, but concerned about the event that was closer then all others. He’d have to see her again.
