Thread: Breaking the Beast

HE could tell she wanted him gone, of course she did because he was another predator invading her territory. Her scent betrayed her emotions, the anger practically intoxicating to him and because of how much it angered him he kept his cool all the more. She was a creature of passions but Vincent was a creature who maintained control over himself at nearly all times, the calmer he remained the more angry his rivals would become and that gave him an advantage over them. As she moved he moved in turn with her, keeping pressed against her so that his arousal would be all the more evident, knowing the fact that he was enjoying himself would anger his target and lead to her making a mistake because of that anger. He listened to her warning with only an arrogant smirk, not worried at all about what was going on because he knew that she didn't want a war... at least not then. The vampires might be disorganized but the Lycanthrope had also lost a lot of their numbers, to start up the fighting again now between them would be a risk because predicting the outcome would be impossible. Vincent however didn't want to provoke a war, instead avoid one by making sure that the opposing side was in no position to challenge them through the control that he would have over their alpha. Vampires were backstabbing and plotting constantly against each other while Lycanthropes tended to be extremely loyal to one another. When it seemed that she had finished her little warning he moved, using his unnatural speed to quickly step around her and close the space between them again, pressing his chest to her back and continuing to move without skipping a single beat. OH I understand the situation in this city quite well. He assured her as he moved his own lips to the spot just below her ear, his teeth lightly brushing against the skin but not breaking it yet... after all he had eaten well the night before and was hardly in need of a meal. Infact my understanding of the situation if why I am here. Your recent little shadow war did a lot of damage to both sides and has left an opening in the vampire hierarchy, one that I intend to fill myself as the undisputed leader of this city. His every word made it quite clear how confident he was, though she couldn't understand that he had until recently been the right hand man of another cities ruler, the intelligence behind the throne. I know that I am on the Lycanthrope side of the city, just like I know that if you were to kill me here word would soon get back to my kind and they would hardly take it sitting down... and the retaliation would kill a few of yours... and the next thing you know the war is back on. He shrugged a little bit as he said this, not really caring if she tried to harm him because he was confident he would escape and the war would be on with him ready to pick up the pieces... though it would be preferable to keep both sides intact when he took charge. Now this can all be avoided though and if you want I will even give you a chance to kill me. He had been pushing her buttons for just this moment, offering her something he doubted she would be able to pass up. I am about to head back to my apartment, back out our side of the town and if you kill me there it will likely be seen as just a bit of vampire politics... I won't be making it easy for you of course but it seems the best way that you can deal with the problems I will create.
