East

The east side of the city is the very heart of Sacrosanct - it's unique skyline is a clash between modern sky rises and small Victorian-inspired storefronts. In the heart of downtown, the sleek colored glass buildings reign supreme though their old-world roots can be seen in the most peculiar places from the lamp post styled electric street light to the stone sidewalks. The old world architecture slowly returns the further from downtown you travel, however. It's here that magic thrives, it hums in every stone and can be felt in every breath. Often, newcomers to the city may become overwhelmed by such sensations but, eventually, it becomes an ever-present feeling that's hardly noticed.

NEVER LET YOUR FEAR DECIDE YOUR FATE


Posted on February 03, 2016 by DARIEN AYRES

You think that I'm conceded, but maybe I'm just miserable
Now that I'm improvin', they say that I have lost it all, oh

Darien felt instantly woozy and the world spun. His ears rang and it sure felt like a bomb had just got off, followed by a brick to the face. He had never actually been punched before! This was a night for firsts.

He was looking at the man who had just done this, getting ready and deciding to return the favor, when he saw Sebastian walking towards him and reaching for his hand. His eyes quickly went to meet his and he saw .. something was different. Seb's eyes were almost black in the night, that blue was gone. He looked like he was half-conscious. He grabs his hand, Darien swore he could feel a very slight tremble. Was he the one shaking or was it Seb? Darien didn't even fight him, he almost willing gives up his bloody hand and he stares at Sebastian, a mixture of confusion, fear and strange arousal swirling inside Darien.

This was strangely .. erotic. Feeling his tongue against his palm, licking away the sticky blood with such gentle care and making it sensual. Well, it was for Darien. For a moment, he forgets about the men and stands there, very close and feeling very provocative. Why was this sexual? He almost wanted to start taking off Seb's shirt and pants, feeling the slight beginnings of his own jeans getting uncomfortable. And when he's satisfied with the palm, he looks up into Darien and he could see the lust. He could feel it and he wanted it. There was tension and it needed to be released.

"What the hell is this shit?!" The drunk men were clearly even more confused than Darien at this, but they have no idea what they have gotten themselves into. Then again, the fae really didn't either. Idiotically, Darien's assaulter puts his hand on Sebastian, "Fucking freaks, what are you doing?!" And what happened next wasn't all that surprising. Alarming and defiantely strange, but Darien could see Seb now; he saw him in every aspect. The man lets out a yelp but it dies off the moment his wrist was in the vampire's mouth. His friends, they are instantly deciding to be more than instigating bystanders. They rush to their friend's aid in an attempt to pull (or rather yank) him from this man's bite. Darien is standing there, his nose still dripping little droplets of blood onto his mouth and chin (but it wasn't his focus) and he starts to feel a sense of jealousy and amusement. The man ... he now seemed to be at the peak of pleasure.

They struggle to get him out of Sebastian's grasp. It seemed to look almost like a bear trap. The amusement disappears from Darien. The jealousy and the need become his weakness. He takes a few steps forward, grabbing Sebastian from behind and wrapping his arms directly under Seb's armpits, giving him a sort of hug from behind. He places his face and chin next to his ear. He closes his eyes and whispers roughly. "Stop! Stop, Sebastian. Come back to me. " Darien unintentionally finds himself even trying to pull Seb away, just as the businessman's friends were still trying to pull him back. It was a sort of tug-of-war going on, and it was starting to attract attention of strangers on the streets. With his face throbbing (and among other things) he can't help himself. He gently bites Sebastian's earlobe, tasting his own blood from that was all over his lips now the act. The men are yelling for their friend to be let go. This had to be, by far, the strangest looking spectacle.
