"Got a question for you, if Randy is your Pet, and Alex is Precious, what do you plan to call Bobby?" "I don't know yet, I haven't had the time to get to know him. Soon enough something will come to me. So, which of these girls do you think will fit in with your two?"

Kris looked around, there were four or five that huddled on the street, trying to brave the chill night air to earn their living. They all looked a bit worn, and tired. But there was one, a girl with bright red hair, who if she was given a decent diet and rest would, look stunning. That one, she pointed to the redhead Mitch has always complained that I should try dying my hair that color. He likes redheads. Jessy nodded. Don't, look now cousin. But, I do believe you are beginning to attract attention. He nodded to the, two, boys/men that were stepping out of a coffee shoppe, both looking at her. Why don't you just lure them both to the van, I'll get the girl, and meet you back at the van. Won't take long at all, trust me.

"Hello," Kris smiled at the two as they approached her. "You looking for some company, honey?" The older of the two smiled at her. "I don't know, maybe. You offering?" "For you, honey, I'd do it for free." Jess, quick, I can't read them yet, either of them cops? No, there are no officers out tonight, so play your part to the hilt. She just laughed at the man softly. "I don't expect anything for free. My lover and I are in the mood for a little group action. So we're out here looking for a few good men and, he want's another girl." "How much you offering honey?" "I honestly don't know. I've never done anything like this before." She wasn't lying to, them. She really hadn't done anything like this before. The older of the two looked to the other. Who only nodded. Sure, he didn't have a problem with doing it with men. Some of his best customers were men. "How deep is your boyfriends pockets?" He asked, softly. "It's my six month anniversary gift to him. My treat." Six months, had she really been with him that, long? It seemed just like yesterday when Marcus killed her.

"Okay, how deed are your pockets?" The younger of the two rearranged his question. Kris shrugged. "What's the asking price, tell me what your are asking, and I'll tell you if that is something I am willing to pay." "Fifty each, and if you want to add any thing extra, that will cost you another fifty," the older of the two rattled off their price. "Each." 'Damn, and here I thought I had a good night when I got more than fifty bucks worth in tips.' "Tell you what. I got a, thou, to spend not including whatever that redhead he is talking to wants. If you can come up with another guy, you guys can split it between you. But afterwards, I don't pay for a meal before I eat it." 'Ouch, girl, that was just a little too close to the mark'. She winced. "I know Mike here, but the only other guy, is this new kid, and I haven't had time to get to know him, so I don't know if he will, or not." The younger of the two admitted. "Well, why don't you ask him. This is as much my treat as if is his. He's going to play with two, so I should too." "Go on Sam, I won't try to steal her." The older of the two pushed the younger.

"Got a question for you, while we wait for your friend." Kris smiled. It was going to work. And here she had been certain that it would take most of the night to get all that they were after. Maybe being a vampire was changing her luck. "Sure honey, I'll answer any question you got." "I'm Kris, if your friends name is Sam, what's yours?" "Mike, not Mikey, just Mike." "Awww, for over three hundred dollars, for one night's fun, can't I call you Mikey?" He stepped forward, touching her cheek. "Honey, for what you are offering, you can call me any thing you want." He wasn't sure why, but she just made him burn. She put off some kind of vibe, or scent, or something that was effecting him. For her, he really would do it for free. The three hundred and thirty three dollars he would get out of this, was just an added bonus. Kris stepped closer to him, almost pressing against his body. "Then I think I'll call you, baby." So, cousin, what is the story you are passing off to your boys? Jessy's mind touched hers. A six-month anniversary gift, a little group action. My, treat. Oh that is right, it is about that time isn't it. God, to be that young again, to still measure, time, in weeks and months, or even years.



"He's into it." Sam returned another boy with him, even younger than he was. He couldn't have been any older than she was, probably, younger. "And your name is?" Kris didn't pull away from Mike. "Ryan." He smiled at her. "Sam said you were looking for a group." 'Oh well, I guess Mitch is going to have to get used to another, other than Danny'. He was just too adorable. Reddish blond hair, that wasn't curly, wasn't straight, that just seemed to hang in loose wavy almost curls to just past his shoulders. A heart shaped face, but very angular, high, prominent cheeks, and something of a point to his chin. He looked almost like what she imagined Puck would. With a ring in the left nostril of his nose, damn, but he was just too hot. "Did he tell you how much?" She would see, how trust worthy this guy was. Mike had been friendly, but he hadn't tried to talk her into just skipping out on him. He nodded, "Yeah, over three hundred each. So what does that get you?" "The chance to get to see my man fuck you." She wasn't going to try to act too dumb here. After all, that is all these three thought they were going to get anyway.

"Straight up, or do you have anything planned?" He might be new to the area, but he had started selling himself when he was all of eighteen, and still in high school. "Oh I don't know, Jess may want to tie you down to do it. Nothing nasty, I'm, not, into anything nasty, and he knows it." 'Come on cutie, relax, I won't hurt you', she silently prayed. "Now hold on here, you didn't say nothing about being tied down to anything." Sam pulled back, looking at her. "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought for the money I was giving you guys, that there wouldn't be a problem. Okay, I'll make it eighteen hundred, but that is as high as it goes. That's five each." "Damn honey, for that kind of money, your boyfriend can tie me down and do anything he wants." Mike looked at the other two. "No, that falls under 'nasty'." Kris looked at Ryan. "Tell you what, it's up to you guys, the one that is willing to be tied down, gets his money doubled." She pulled away from Mike to step close to Ryan. Instinctively concentrating all her, fledgling, energies on him. "Come on sugar, I really want to see you with Jessy."

Ryan moved to press against Jessy as he and Kris regrouped. "So you like to tie boys down." He ran his hand up Jessy's inner thigh. "You can tie me down." Okay, baby girl, get your two's attention. And hold it. You can't dominate anyone yet, but you can hold them silent and still for a time. Offer them the choice, freely or lost. Kris was going to have problems enough with Bobby lost as he was, she just didn't want to deal with having to work around it with any others. That is why I said silent and still, honey, if all I was going to do was dominate them and take their wills, I wouldn't have mentioned it. "Mike, Sam, maybe you should listen to what Jessy is going to tell you." He whole being went in to holding on to their attentions. "What?" Mike started to question her. "Ssshh, don't talk, sweety, just listen." She looked up to where Jessy had done much the same thing to his two. "Okay, baby, you have their attention." "I want you all to listen to me. You are ours now, and there is nothing that will change that. I honestly have never had to explain to any mortal in my house what I am for the first time, other than Bobby, and Kris did most of the talking. So I will probably do it very badly. But we're vampires. And you are now part of our house." He looked away for a moment; to break gazes with Brenda's horrified eyes. He always noticed the eyes, always the eyes. "Neither of us will ever hurt you, not unless you do something really out of line, and them only if I have to punish you." He reached out and touched Brenda's cheek, smiling at her. "And there are many positive things about belonging to a vampire. I have had my oldest pet with me for about twenty years, and he doesn't look a day older that he did when he first came to me. None of the mortals that, any of us, those of the blood, own ever get sick, and if they come to us, sick, our blood heals them. There is not a one of you that either hasn't had or in two of your cases, currently have a venereal decease. And one of the two is much sicker than you would like to think you are HIV positive. It doesn't matter whom, because by the time you go to sleep, you won't be. Think, before you act, unknown time as you are now, in your youth, guaranteed health, and complete immunity to all illnesses, illnesses of any kind. Our blood not only heals contagious decease, but congenial and hereditary as well, things like cancer, diabetes and the like. You will have a life unlike anything you have ever had before.

I promise you, you will never want for anything. I spoil those I love, and I will come to love each and every one of you. We both will." Now he would see if he were going to have to dominate any of them. He hoped he wouldn't have to. "You are ours no matter what happens, but I would much rather have you all come willingly. I do not want to have to take your wills. I don't want to dominate any of you." He looked to the girl. "Brenda, I don't want to force you, but I will if I have too. You, going to agree to come freely? Knowing that after you are bound to me, that you can't ever leave. I found out the hard way today what would happen to a mortal who drinks from us, and then doesn't continue to do so. That is one of the reasons I am working so hard to add to their numbers. I do not want any of you to ever feel what he did. I was there, and it didn't last long, but I can't risk that kind of thing again. So I have to give them my blood very often, in some cases, every night. But Kris, she's all of six months old, so she feeds a lot. Not ten to twelve times a night, anymore, but still a lot. She even in the middle of the day sometimes feeds from me, so I have to up my diet too. I couldn't just share my increased hunger with them without ending up weakening them. I won't do that to any of you. I don't hurt, and I don't kill." He hoped that none of them took notice of the redundancy of that last statement. You couldn't kill someone with out, hurting, them.

Being dead is being hurt in a big way. "Now, I am going to give you back your voice. Please don't scream. I don't want to force you, and if you scream, I won't have any choice." He released his hold on her voice, but not on her body, incase he had to stop her lungs, to deprive her vocal cords air to speak. "Will you come freely, or should I just dominate you. If I do, you will be very confused and lost to yourself for about a week to ten days, but that is okay. I won't hurt you, and I won't let any one, else, hurt you while you are lost to yourself. By the time you finally make it back to yourself, you will be happy with us."
