Autumn snuggled deeper into his hold and found herself relaxing in his hold. A smile graced her lips as he said he cared for her. "I like knowing that..because i care for you too Kenji," she said quietly and with a smile. Kissing his bare chest gently before settling back in his hold and lightly tracing a random pattern on his cold, bare chest. "My father wants to meet you. I told him everything," she informed him quietly and looked up at him. Her fingertip kept trailing around his chest lightly though and her eyes studied him waiting for an answer to that.
Henry had the sevants bring out dinner for Autumn and himself as well as Kenji though he wasnt sure if he ate or not. Then he sent all the maids, butlers, and cooks home for the night. Before he quickly got dressed in a nice suit and made sure it was spick and span before sitting at the table and awaiting the arrival of his daughter and Kenji.

Before he quickly got dressed in a nice suit and made sure it was spick and span before sitting at the table and awaiting the arrival of his daughter and Kenji.
Kenjis eyes went wide hearing that her father wanted to meet him. He smiled and could not help but like that Autumn was trailing circles around his bare torso. He smiled again and glanced to Autumn as the smell of food drifted to his noise, his mouth watterdd smelling it. He felt a sense of nostalgia as it reminded him of the kings court always filled with aromatic scents. "I am.most glad that he wishes to meet me. And I am most honored to meet him. Im glad that he wishes it. And im glad that you accept my feelings autumn. "he siad with a happy smile. And looked ay his bare chest."i suppose i shoul get dressed and meet him."he said as he reluctantly stood up from the bed and headed tk the end and grabbed his shirt.
Autumn smiled and got off the bed as he did. Still wearing the deep blue dress as she fixed her hair a bit to where it framed her face and her bangs were side swept to make her look beautiful as she walked over to Kenji. When he was done gettig dressed, she grabbed his hand then pulled him out of the room and downstairs in a hurry. Once they entered the dining room, a long rectangular table was set in the middle of the room. Henry sat at the head of the table with two place mats set up with food on them beside him. As they entered Henry stood up and was quick to walk over to Autumn and Kenji. "Im happy you could make it Kenji. My daughter speaks highly of you," he said as he held out his hand for a shake. Autumn let go of Kenji's hand and smiled at her dads approval of Kenji joining them for dinner.
Kenji while he was being lead to the dinner room he saw Autumns father Henry, stood and greeted him. Kenji bowed in respect then took henrys hand and gave.it a firm shake."the pleasue is mine sir. It is most wonderous that I am able to gain your aquaintance."he said speeking in the most respectful way and he bowed again out of habit. He loooked to Autumns father and the dinning table and how lovely it was set up. He looked to Henry and was careful to to sppok him too much."ah it pleases me that I am spoken with such his regards sir. Im sure that my tale sounds a bit of the oddest of nature."he interjected as he releaxed henrys hand still rather curious. Kenji could not help but ponder ehat Autumna father thou gh t of him. The thing that worried him the most was the potential for asking for Autumns hand. Either way he was foing to vow to protect Autumn and her fayher to both keep them safe from harm. He looked at Henry and felt th at ina snese he was a good and just man. Let alone he loved his daughter. however one thing bugged Kenji, if Henrys debts were to be called on again by th at man woul he be turned in to pay the debt off. In that case he would have to breack his vows. And breaking vows is not something Kenji does.
Autumn smiled a how well her father was acting towards Kenji. Henry was relaxed around Kenji as he listened to him. "Well you will certainly have to tell me your intentions of being around my daughter before i can fully support you being around her Kenji. But we can talk about it later. First lets eat. Im not sure if you eat human food Kenji but i had a place set up with food just in case," Henry said and explained before he took Autumn's hand and led her over to the table.
Autumn sat at the table and was slightly disappointed that her father had set up Kenji's place across from hers. But she secretly slipped off her shoes and pulled her feet up into the chair. Sitting criss cross on the chair happily. "So dad, when is the winter dance again?" she asked. Henry looked at her in surprise and worry. "Dear im not so sure you should be going. I mean after what happened..but knowing you, you'll go wether we try to stop you or not. Its tommorow night," Henry said, worry still etched into his features but amusement lit up his eyes as he looked to Kenji. "You have yourself a handful Kenji. You will have to keep an eye on her but dont forget to take the reins in the relationship otherwise Autumn will have you two steps behind her at all times," he said in amusement. Autumn just cutely pouted at her father's comment.

Autumn just cutely pouted at her father's comment.
Kenji let out a small laugh hearing that Henry was acting completly normal to him. Kenji looked to henru having the utmost time of his nigt."well Mr. Henry sir. You see .i wish to protect you and Autumn. Mainly Autumn you may find it strange, but may i have the permission of courting your courtong your daughter. You see sir i care very much about Autumn. And in my time we men were gentlemen. As for the winter dance. I wish it that Autumn were to go. However I would have to be their in attendnace. And it must be a masquerade ball. I do not have the clothing required. If Autumn were to dance at the ball in a mask and i wrfe to be in a mask. She would be safe. And i would dance witb her as well."he said looing to Henry. "i promise you sir that no harm will come to your Daughter. I am hound to her in so many different ways."he said as he looked at Autumn admeiring her in her in her saphire blue dress.
Henry nodded and took a couple of bites then looked at Kenji. "Very well then. You may court Autumn. As for the ball..well i'll talk to Margrett and get it changed a bit. Im trusting my daughter to your care," he said and began eating. Autumn sat there looking at her plate, not wanting to take the lid off of it in case it were to be rotting. She stared at the covered plate as if it were going to jump off the table and consume her whole. Henry noticed and reached over to her plate, lifting it on his side before lifting it off the plate. "Autumn dear, its fine." he reassured her. Autumn flinched when the lid came off but relaxed when she saw it was indeed good meat. Slowly, she began eating and once she was done, she studied Kenji. Henry finished and looked at Autumn with a loving and relieved smile. "Autumn dear im sure Kenji would like a bath since you've had one yourself. Why dont you show him up to your room?" he asked. Autumn smiled and got up from the table, once Kenji had come over to her, she took his hand and quickly pulled him upstairs. Into her room, she shut the door behind them and went into the bathroom starting a warm bath for him. Once it was good enough, she walked back into her room and smiled. "Your good to go. I'll wait outside the room for you to finish," she offered.
Kenji smiled as Henry gave him the final say so in being able to court Autumn. And Autumn would be able to be at the winters.dnace which would be tommorow night. He smiled as he was lead into the bathroom with a warm.bath . He stepped into the bathroom and disrobed as he stepped into the bath washing off the dirt and the.grime . He looked at his scar once more and remineced in the old tikes. Hoever he quickly changed thoughts he began to prepare for the next nights events. How he would walk up in his elaborate masquerade outfit and steal away the jewel of the ball. He would protect her in any way possible. As he finished his bath he climbed out and dryed himself off and dressed.bhe walked out and met Autumn. He gently reached for her hand and kissed it. "thankyou so much Autumn, i shall be the utmost caring for you." He added as he looked at he curious what she would do after the dinner. He didnt need to rat but he mainly got what he wanted answered her father knew who he was and now Autumn was his to protect.I
Autumn smiled then wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tightly. Then stood on her tiptoes and gave him a single burning, caring kiss on his lips. Autumn had been overjoyed when Kenji asked her father for permission to court her. The winter dance was her favorite out of all the dances they had. "I know you will be," she whispered against his lips. Autumn then pulled away, she took Kenji's hand then took him back to the third floor with a smile. Closing the door after the entered the third floor, she walked over to the bed but her emotions were bubbly and excited as she crawled in the bed. Sitting in the middle of the bed, criss cross, she looked at Kenji with a smile. Then realization camw across her face. "Oh! You didnt eat yet," she said quietly then gathered her hair and pulled it to one side of her neck. She wouldnt let Kenji go one night without feeding because she wanted him to always be at his fullest. She never wanted to see him suffer. Autumn bit her lower lip gently as she put her hair to one side of her neck. Inviting Kenji over to feed, she smiled gently.
Kenji's eyes softened seeing Autumn so happy, she was going to be able to go to the dance. Let alone he was going to be courting ber. He looked at her as she gave.him the burning kiss. He walked iver to her while she was on the bed and he crawled in with her. He held her close and took her chin in his fingers and pulled her lips close to his. He gave gave her a sweet and long kiss as he sat next to her. He broke the kiss and whispered in her ear. "you know Autumn, I must say enticing me like that will get you in trouble one of these days. But I do thankyou for letting me drink of your sweet blood." He said as he gently kissed her neck. He held her closeband gently bit down, the second he did his eyes flared red as he drank. He gently drew in her blood takingbit slow trying not to be greedy. He made it slow so Autumn would enjoy it. After a couple mintues later he wuth drew and held Autumn. He gently brushed her hair wiht his finger treatinvg her gently. He licked his lips.cleaning up after hiseldf as ablittle managed to sneak past the corners of his lips.
Autumn wrapped her arms around him, holding him closer to her body as he drank. The feeling of waning coming back and a soft whine left her lips as he drank. Oddly attracted to the feeling, she dug her nails in his back a bit as he drank. Her eyes fluttered closed and she pressed her body close to his. Once he pulled away, a faint whimper escaped her lips and she looked at Kenji as he licked his lips. Watching as the blood disappeared in his mouth and she couldnt help it as she pressed her lips against his right after. "I like inticing you..its fun teasing you," she whispered against his lips. Then she snaked her arms around his neck and held him closer to her as she kissed him again. Except a tad deeper and more loving this time.
Henry cleaned off the table and stiffened as Margrett entered the house. "Hello Henry. Why is there three places at the dinner table tonight?" she asked suspicously. Henry couldnt stop his eyes darting towards the stairs then back to the dinner table he was cleaning off. "I had friends over," he said quickly. Margrett narrowed her eyes but said nothing and continued on to their room.

The kiss left kenji off gaurd. He kept his arm around Autumns and smiled."well dearest Autumn teasing me and enticing me may be . Hiwver dont hink i wont do the same you preciius thing you."he said as he held her and brushed a finger down her chin smillling. He loved whne she teased him, it made him feel normal. Amd at the same time the beast self wanted to possesively take Autumn. He held Autumn in his arms embracing her in an endless and loving hug. Jr looked at Autumn not wanting to ruin the mood but he needed Nsweres. "Autumn tell me who this Margarett is? And why is your father in debt?" He asked curious trying to piece.together clues.
Autumn shivered as his finger ran down her chin lightly and she smiled. Leaning into his embrace happily and relaxed. When he asked about Margrett, she pulled away from him but not far, just so she could see him. Looking into his eyes, she was silent for a moment. "Margrett is my step mother. My real mother died. She was shopping for a necklace for a dance late one night. A man came in and wielded a gun. My mother put me behind her so he couldnt see me. She begged him to leave me alone because he wanted me. He shot her then fled as the authorities came..." she explained quietly. Her eyes were dull with sadness but she looked up at Kenji's eyes. "My father is in debt because of my step mother. Margrett made him pay for many dances, expensive jewelery, and expensive clothes. He was drunk one night when he met Mr. Channing. The next morning we had a fortune and my father looked guilty. But Margrett again spent it all on those stupid dances and gowns. Now we have nothing except a whole lot of debt," she explained and sighed when she was done. Laying on her back, looking up at the rafters a heavy sad feeling choking her.
Upon hearing the story of Autumns past he looked at her and held Autumn close with the first part of her story. And when he heard of this horrid margerret he let out a small growl and his claws extended. "women that just use men like that completly disrespectful. Just spe.ding it freely. It seems im going to <a href="http://have.to">have.to</a> have a.word with your father Autumn about his choice in women. You may find it odd however I am reasonably much experienced in theatter. For her just to squander it like that. ....Autumn i do not like this Margarerret. She sounds like bad news. Especially if she bad mouths such a precious and kind flower as you Autumn. I have meet my fair deel ofbfoul people and i can immediatly name them of the bat."he said and gently held Autumns hand careful not to scratch her. He looked at her and pulled her head close to his chest and hugged her. "i promise Autumn your debt will be no more. Once I expose thisbterrible.Margarett for the witch she is." He said and saying the name margarret as if it were a foreign word signifying that he really did not like it. He turned to Autumn once more as he smiled. " i wish i could havemet your mother though, she sounded like a wonderful woman. As for that man....i hope the hounds of hell arw tearing him limb from limb."he said as he growled slightly, his eyes were red his.fangs and claws extended. The ill will of margarett and the cowardly man sent kenji in anger. He was a noble and honorable if mn. He could not fathom those that would act in just.
Autumn watched Kenji and was truly puzzled as to why he was so bent on clearing up her fathers mess. But then she smiled and didnt care, hearing him talk was what she needed and she suddenly pulled him close. On top of her more like but it didnt bother her as she wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her head in his chest. "Thank you.." she murmured into his chest.
Margrett was truly a devil when it came to women and now she was prying information from Henry. "I know you are lying to me. Who came here? Where are they now?" she asked for the millionith time as Henry laid in bed reading a book. Letting out a heavy sigh, he looked at Margrett. "Margrett. Hush. I have told you it was my friends and they left. Now leave it," he said firmly then went back to his book. Margrett huffed and got up, grabbing a lantern before she lit it and left the room. Marching to the stairs, she started up them and to the third floor.
Autumn blushed slightly as she realized she had pulled Kenji on top of her and she looked up at him, finding him at a rather close proximity. Her heart rate went through the roof and the bare side of her neck was still showing making the pulse of her blood loud to Kenji. Autumn looked at his eyes then his lips and couldnt help giving him a gentle, loving kiss on his lips since he was so close.

Kenji looked down at Aufumn as he was now pulled on top of her. He flushed a gentle color of red the blood he jadbjust taken now went tobhis face as he looked at her. He held her closer and kissed her back as he was kissed. He could help but ceel Autumns love in the kiss. He looked at her and stayed a moment longer. He forced himself from doing what any normal manvwouldbhave.done in rhis situation. He calmed himself and gently postioned himself beside Autumn. He was a gentleman by nature and unless he was properly bound to Autumn. Meaning Henry would <a href="http://have.to">have.to</a> give her to in a form of marriage. Hearing Autumns heart rate jump through madebhis eyes glow red and he saw the veins in her neck he shook his head trying not to foucus on it. He opened his mouth to say a word.but he heard a small faint and clam heartbeat in the distance. He covered Autumns mouth and put abfinger to his lips. He quietly got up from the bed and stared straight at the wall scanning for the source of the sound. He then spoke in a voice so quiet only Autumn could hear him."Autumm....some one is coming up here and i do not think it is a good thing. I will play decoy, do not leave here and when i speak to you through your mind. Go through the window and find somewere safe to hide."he said and quickly messed his hair up fkrced his eyes to turn grey and he mimicked the breath of alchol on his breath. He was going to play drunk. He was going to protect Henry and Autumn at the same time. He was going to play of as one of Henrys friends and he had a little bit to much wine, and rather then him leaving he insited him on staying int the guests room. He opened the door and walked out closing it behind him. With some of Autumns blood he accesed the memory map og the hall and the stairs. He looked and saw the candle light coiming. He stopped and stood ready.
Autumn jumped in surprise as Kenji covered her mouth. Looking at him, she nodded as he told her what to do. When he messed up his hair, she couldnt help the smile that graced her lips. He looked incredibly hot when he did that. Then she got off the bed and crept over to the window, atepping out of it, she stood on the slanted roof carefully. Holding onto whatever she could to keep her from slipping.
Margrett walked rather quickly down the hall, coming to a startled halt when she saw a man in the corridor "And exactly who are you?" she said with authority and marched over to him. Taking in his appearance, she slightly blushed at how handsome the man was.
Autumn cringed as a cold wind blew, threatening to propel her over the edge of the roof. From a distance, she saw a carriage coming up to the house and instantly recognized Mr. Channing. Climbing at a frantic pace to a window, she forced herself into a room and ran out of the room silently. It was down the hall quite a bit behind Margrett so she never noticed. Running to the door downstairs, she threw it open just as Mr. Channing walked up. A creepy grin over took his face and Henry was soon at the door from hearing it being thrown open. "I see you have a lovely daughter Henry," Channing said. Henry quickly invited him in and a few minutes later they exited from the parlor. Autumn stood by the door, shocked as her father followed Channing begging him for something. The next thing she knew, she was being grabbed by the waist and hauled into the air. "Dad!!!!" she screamed and Henry yelled for her as they shoved her in the carriage. Channing kicked her back and got in, slamming the door before Henry could do anything, they were off down the driveway. Henry chased after it till it felt as if his lungs would burst. "AUTUMN!!!!!!" he yelled then fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face.

Kenji heard.commotion and felt a strong.pull to save Autumn. why did she not.stay in the room. I <a href="http://have.to">have.to</a> save her after i deal woth this.woman.he thought as he let a charming smild come across.his face. "why Madam I am a mere friend of Henrys he was out and about when he <a href="http://told.me">told.me</a> is daughter went missing. The whole town has gone stark crazy and mumbling nonsense about vampire. I came here with dinner along with another companion of mine. A coworker she went home hours ago, unfortunatly i had too much wine and Henry urged me to stay. Considering I was not coherent enough to call a carrage. Ah as for my name madam you may call me Sir, Kenith james. I wish I could have more time to be familar with you miss seeing that you are Henrys wife. Nah say I must be leaving. Mybestate will be in thebutmost of shambles. Fare thee well. Oh and one more thing miss dear Henry is in complete wreck, after his daughter wentmissinv. The shock and the thought if losing a loved oneade me feel absolutleybwreched. I did not eat and I drank. Do console him on the matter, madam."he said as he fixed his hair as he looked at the woman and bowed good bye. He hoped his disgustinly good charm would keep her from pursuing him. It was the way he acted to keep women away. Anyone thatbwas that attentative to words cleqrly was in love.with himself, or worse another male. He smiled and proceced with a mindlink to Autumn.Autumn my love.do.not fret i will be on my way to save.you . Right now I need you to foucus i need you to look outside the carriage.window . I need the closet thing to identify. I am dealing with this Margarret, hopefully when i get her of my tail she will let me go. I am on my way to you. he siad through his.mind and began to walk to the stairs hoping Mararett eould not stop him. He was going to get Autumn back, and the last thing he was going to kill the ome that dared to lay hands on her.
Autumn couldnt hold back the tears that brimmed her eyes and they quickly rushed down her cheeks in small rivers. They were going at a fast pace and she was sandwiched in between the carriage wall and a bodyguard. Mr. Channing leaned over to her and wiped the tears with grubby fingers. "My dear Autumn. Do not cry. It pains me to see you in such a mess. Do not worry. You will be safe since you are by far the finest woman i have seen in all my years," he said in a creepy what was supposed to be soothing voice. Autumn flinched at his touch and jerked away from it, the tears falling more rapidly. She was calmed by Kenji's voice in her head and she did exactly what he asked. Looking out the window, she saw a black gate with gold, cursive lettering that had the initials, MC on it. Oh god Kenji..we're at Channings house. Kenji hurry! she thought in a panic. Channing's eyes roamed down Autumn's body a they came to a stop. Once again she was roughly pushed out then picked up and thrown over a shoulder. She hit the mans back hard, repeatedly yelling at him to put her down but he never listened and walked right into Channing's house with her thrown over his shoulder.
Margrett did stop following Kenji no lknger intrested in a man that had so many manners.

As Margarret left kenji be he quicklybheaded for the main door lightning fast he recived the mental image Autumn sent him. He growled his.jaws extending and his body transforming into a beast like creature. He stopped once he saw the front gate. He quickly transcormed back into the persona Kenith james as he reached the gate. He smiled at the guards that stopped him. He laughed in their faces as he looked at them. He was first going to use logic to prrsaude them with the promises of money. "well hello there, I am Kenith James. I am here to purchase a woman by the name of Autumn. Tell mr. Channing im offering him a six figure fortune for her along with some ancient treasure." He added. He wasnt about to rip their heads off just yet. If the refused to let him in then they would kill them. He tired to keep the beast.locked up for the time being. He had to stay calm for Autumns sake, as well as Henrys thebtown was already nuts about.the.subject of.vampires . Now ripping heads off would point to vampires for sure. He at least had to make it look like some animal gort loose. Hr smiled charming to the gaurds and even gave off a slightly gay aura around him that made him irresitaboe. He was going to get in one way or the other. And if these gaurds had guns, well he would devour ine of them steal their abilities and fight.his way using their pistols. He had macthlcok guns in his time. And if they were different he would shoot the place up and say a serial killer got loose. Either way he was going to keep a level head and save his love.
