Thread: Blood-Sucking Brother [Sumi and Dakol]

A sigh left the slightly bloodied lips of the eighteen-year old young man as he licked his wrist. Blood quietly poured from the two tiny holes on his wrist for a few minutes, but the wounds steadily closed up as if nothing happened, save for the stain of blood on his skin. Leaning against a wall in his bedroom, he looked at the ceiling in exhaustion. Long, messy black hair cascaded over the boy's shoulders, falling behind his ears and over his eyes. At the moment he was only dressed in sweats, exposing his lean, toned, and slightly-pale body. But knew he needed to get dressed his sister would be home soon. He stayed home from work that day, feigning sickness in favor wanting to feed on blood. I'll need actual blood soon... Lucius Harx muttered, running his left hand through his hair before looking at the clock with his darkened eyes of gold it was almost time for his twin sister to awake. He licked the remnants of blood off his wrist and stood up, stretching slightly. Since he was born, it was known to both of their parents that Lucius was going to be a dhampir. However, his own sister had no idea of his race. Their mother - whom was also a Vampire - had fallen in love with their father, and were lucky enough to birth twins. It pained them each and every day to keep their origins secret, especially from a loved one. But it had to be done. She would know when the time is right. Lucius walked over to the window and opened it, letting the dim rays of sunlight in through the open air. As the light hit his bare chest, his toned muscles contracted tightly to show the state of physique he was in. He then heard the front door open, telling him that his sister was now home. If there was one thing she wasn't good at, it had to be keeping a boyfriend. No matter how much she wanted to have a longer relationship there was always one matter that got in her way. What exactly was that problem, however, she was clueless about it. No, she wasn't ignorant, just purely too naive at times. Alexandra, was simply the type of girl that could flirt by mistake and then have no idea why the guys would hit on her. While her parents never thought their daughter was stupid, at times, there would be clear signs that she was too... let's say, innocent. Innocent to the point where the farthest she'd ever gone in a relationship was a french kiss and holding hands. It was no wonder that most of her ex-boyfriends ended up being frustrated enough to dump her, when she'd bluntly deny them more in spite of her playful teasing again, something she was unaware of. The funny thing was, even with her sheer naivety, she actually knew what was sex about. Thing is, she rarely thought of that matter, even when she was in a relationship, mostly because it was always the wrong guy she would date and she would hold interest until a certain point. Today, however, another date ended up as a major failure. What seemed to start as a successful one, turned out to be her ticket to being dumped like a pair of used socks. And at the very moment she really felt like a pair of used socks. Simply put, she felt horrible and miserable. It almost seemed like no relationship was meant to be, bringing her to the conclusion that maybe it was a better thing to remain alone for the rest of her life. Yet, in spite of the way she wanted to keep herself calm, she couldn't help but blink repeatedly in order to keep in the tears threatening to roll down her cheeks, as she placed the key into the hole and unlocked the entrance door. But first things first, she made sure she didn't look too awful. Then again, there were slight chances for her twin to be at home right now. Thus, she finally entered the house and gave a deep sigh, pushing the door closed with her foot. Tossing the little black purse somewhere to the side of the hallway, dark blue eyes glanced down at her own neat outfit and felt like cringing. There she tried her best to look perfect for this date and she screwed it up again. Her pretty little pale blue dress, her heels which added a couple more inches to her petite height, the long black hair curled at the ends specifically for this date, all went to waste. Stupid Jake! Stupid heels! Ugh! she muttered, taking off her shoes only to frown at the slight pain. Normally, she would have avoided wearing heels because they were uncomfortable, and now her feet hurt like hell after spending more hours with those. Something was wrong. As a supernatural being, he had ways of telling. For one, his ears could pick up the unique, distinct sound of his twin sister's heartbeat from miles away. Then, his nose was able to smell her similarly-unique scent, making him sigh in comfort. He always felt better when she was in the area. But now something was bothering her, for now he could also smell the tears that she attempted to keep hidden. He frowned, turning around as he wiped his lips of blood, striding out of his room and forgetting to put on a shirt. Luke's footfalls made no sound, so he was as silent as a ghost walking down the stairs to Alexandra's position. He ran a hand through his thick, long hair and inhaled softly, searching for her location. When he did, he walked over to the front door, seeing her remove her shoes. He leaned against the wall, crossing his arms. I take it that the date didn't go well? he asked. It was common knowledge in his family that Lucius was not a kind of man that dated anybody. Of course, he was interested in women, but for the most part, shied away from girls and females in general. Except for his sister. But unbeknownst to her, something happened in Luke's past that scarred his experience and confidence with women, making it so he was perpetually afraid of the opposite sex. Again, other than Alexandra. But he never brought it up, and he wouldn't, not in a million years. At least, as far as he knew. As silent as he was, and as upset as she was, Alexandra didn't even notice her twin was there. At least, not until she heard his voice anyway, which only startled her, causing the brunette to raise her glance and then quickly avert her eyes as she reminded herself that she still looked like she cried. W-what makes you think that it didn't go well? she quickly retorted, somewhat ashamed with her new failure and thus, attempting to cover her mistake with a weak lie. However, as much as she wanted to make herself look like she was alright, she couldn't. Because she really wasn't alright with this situation. It almost annoyed her how many guys had dumped her until then, even though she tried her best to keep the relationships alive for longer than two months. ... It's not my fault. They are simply some scaredy cats who can't stay faithful to one person for more than a couple of months. All guys are the same! Why else would they dump me? I did everything, yet it was still not enough. she complained in the end, though mostly everyone knew that that 'everything' went as far as kissing and nothing more than that. Still, what made the other guys actually ask her out was the mere idea that if they could bed her they were awesome. In short, she was sort of like a challenge for the player guys out there who wished to test their charming skills. It was only Alexandra who had no idea about this, completely oblivious to her surroundings like a little kid learning about the world for the first time. But leaving that aside, weren't you supposed to be at work today? What are you doing wasting your time around? Cause' I doubt you'd actually have something good enough to do to skip work. I take it you didn't suddenly find yourself a girlfriend. Or did you? she pointed out as she walked towards the living room, only to stop and look back at him. She shook her head with a little smile, as if that was the only thing able to make her forget about her own problems. Who am I kidding? Your case is even worse than mine. she remarked, sitting down on the plush couch in front of the TV, knees brought up to her chin, regardless of the dress that couldn't hide her legs completely or even her white panties. Lucius, do you by any chance like guys better? she asked, obviously teasing him, just to let out some stress. His eyes tracked hers as Alexandra looked up in surprise, then looked away in a hurry, as if to hide her sadness. When she replied, he said nothing, instead crossing his arms further over his chest, waiting for her to continue. There was no way to successfully lie to Lucius, she very well knew. When they were children, she frequently attempted to take his toys, and that resulted in a fight. Then, he was always able to make her tell the truth. The truth was important to him. But unfortunately, he had to hide the biggest truth from the one he cared most about. Lucius frowned as she spoke, his eyes narrowing in sorrow for her as he listened. Some men don't want a good relationship. Sometimes, all they want is sex, he answered, shaking his head. Men were so foolish sometimes here was a perfect girl like Alexandra, and they didn't know any better than to think of her for sex. He sighed it was ironic, but if she wasn't his twin sister, then he would have done his damnedest to get her, and to keep her. The young man rolled his eyes, pushing himself off the wall, scoffing. I didn't feel well enough to work today, he explained. It was the partial truth he hadn't gotten any true blood that wasn't his own in weeks, and for that, his body had weakened, and so had his self-control. It was at an all-time low. He followed her into the living room, sitting down and leaning back with a sigh, glancing at her, his eyes trailing down to see her tight white panties that covered her intimate parts. For some reason, he swallowed quietly and looked back up before she noticed, hearing her tease him. He smirked, Pretty sure I don't. Always had an interest in girls, he said, then laughed. But if you'd like, you could always try me, darlin'. Lucius grinned at his joke, though he wasn't really sure about the truth of it.
