Slowly, her eyes opened to the darkness, her head still lying on his chest. Thoughts of last night appeared in her head making her smile. For once they had a civil conversation, one that didn't involve swearing or hurting. Okay, it may have started that way, but it turned out all right.

" Your finally up" she heard her master say. She moved her head so she faced him, and even so, she still couldn't see. She moved off him then, lying beside him, slowly trying to wake up more. She felt Kaiba move from the bed, as he lit every candle, giving her some light.

She got up from the bed, yawning and stretching before walking to the bathroom and washing her face. When she was done, she walked back into the room where she saw Kaiba getting dressed. " Your going out?" she asked. " Later, now I have a meeting with the others," he said walking to the door.

" Could I come master?" she asked sweetly. " No, it's a vampire thing" he said as she walked up to him. " I don't want to stay in here all night" she stated her hands on her hips. He smirked. " Maybe when I go to feast, till then stay here" he said, hating how nice he was being with her.

" Thanks Master" she said, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek. She smirked, as he stood there shocked, a slight blush creeping on his cheeks. Bet he didn't see that one coming she thought happily. " What was that for?" he asked, sounding calm and casual, yet angry. " You said maybe later, I was just happy," she said.

Kaiba smirked as an idea formed in his head. She raised an eyebrow at this. Quickly, he bent down and kissed her pink lips. She gasped and moved away, her eyes full of shock and anger. " What the hell was that for?" she asked angrily. He smirked. " I was just happy," he said leaving the room, locking it after.

He was happy? She thought. Since when is he happy? I thought he couldn't be happy, oh well she thought. But that wasn't all that was on her mind, she knew there must have been another reason for him wanting to kiss her, there had to be.

Her first thought was, maybe he kind of liked her, but she immediately shrugged it off, something like that couldn't love right? But he had with Mokuba, so maybe he could with her. But she couldn't love him! He was not the guy she had dreamed of ending up with. Besides, he didn't look like the type that could love, even though he had, she just couldn't picture it, especially with her.

She sighed as she walked over to the small couch. Taking a seat, she opened the book she had been reading last night, and continued it.

" My he's on time, what's the occasion?" Bakura taunted him, an evil grin on his pale white face. " I don't have time for this, what do you guys want?" he asked, taking a seat. " Are we taking time from your little pet you keep locked up?" Bakura asked. Kaiba ignored him, turning to Pegasus.



" Well, what did you need?" he asked him. Pegasus shook his head. " I don't know, I didn't call it, I heard it from Marik" he said, making Kaiba turn to the lavender-eyed boy. " Don't look at me Kaiba, It was Bakura," he said going back to playing with the little pocketknife he held in his hand.

" Yes I did call it, and I'll tell you why! I don't think Kaiba is a good leader, he's grown weak every since that girl came here, and he still hasn't bit her! What kind of leader is that? One that is going soft for some stupid weak human girl" he said. " I am not going soft!" Kaiba hissed at him.

" Then why is she still alive? She looks well to me" he said, their eyes on each other. " That's because I'm not done with her," Kaiba said, of course, a lie. He would never be done with her, he would die first. " Will you ever though? Because it doesn't feel like it," he said. " I didn't know you could feel" Kaiba smirked.



Bakura growled at him. " Look Bakura, if you don't like the way I manage things, then leave" Kaiba said. Bakura stood up, his eyes dark and full of anger, a smirk slowly forming his lips. " I will Kaiba, but trust me you will one day regret those words" Bakura said walking out the door.

" He'll be back later on," Marik said, thinking nothing of it. " Well is that all?" Kaiba asking, scanning the room. When no one said anything he got up and walked out the door, ready to kill some unsuspecting people and laugh as they scream for help.

---

After killing another woman, he flew back into the air, the night wind hitting his face. Maybe Bakura was right! He thought. He was becoming soft the more he thought about it, and what kind of leader remained soft? He had to be ruthless, that's how he got his place as leader, and he wouldn't loose it.

He landed on the cold ground, the grass dead, he knew winter was coming soon, but he didn't mind the cold. He entered the shed, and walked the cold stone staircase and down the halls. He could hear no one, so he guessed they were getting ready to sleep once again, for the night was almost done.

He opened his door to his room; entering it he scanned for the young woman. She lad on the couch, asleep, a book in her hand as the only candle lit lightened the small part of the room. He walked over to the girl, only wanting to blow out the candle and got to sleep, but she had steered and woken up.

Her eyes opened, as she came face to face with her master, his eyes emotionless like most nights she saw him. " I was waiting for you" she yawned a bit, her eyes barely open. " Well I'm back, you can go back to sleep" he said blowing it out and walking to the bed, where he would sleep.

Serenity sat there confused, what had happened? She thought getting up and walking over to him. " What's wrong?" she asked gently. Kaiba turned to the girl. " Go. To. Bed. " He said, breaking it down for her, hopefully she would get it he thought.

She stopped in her tracks, she was about to say something, but stopped, it was her fault. Her fault for being caring to him, helping him, and now he no longer needed her right? So why should she waste her time? Why would she want to risk him getting angry because she cared, no she wouldn't, I guess it was a one time thing she thought sadly.

She turned back and lay down on her couch. Would they always be like this? One minute okay with each other, the next him hating her, she didn't need it, she couldn't handle that, she would be confused, but she wasn't sure after a while she would get used to it. She knew they would fight, but for how long? Even she knew that after a while she wouldn't say anything, she would let it be, too tired to fight and defend herself, she couldn't do it forever could she. . .
