the chill in the air told the couple to walk more to be to find a more suitable place to be. the female was small, petite who wrapped her coat closer even if it was buttoned up all the way. "Honey, I don't mean to sound so grumpy, but are we there yet?" The male, tall ,broad shoulders with black as siin hair looked down on his mate spoke "we're here, little one. " The male's coven house was an old Castle circa early1300s.
A servant came out with heavy cloth blankets for the small female who was noticeably shivering very strongly and the male then carried the female and set her in his great chair in front the great burning fire in the fireplace.
"My lord, we all were worried That you and small one were lost to us so Lord Mica was sent for and is now in the Guest's chamber. "The male nodded his approval of the action taken. "Send for Mica" Lord Sebastien replied. A strong arm pushed open the door. "Thank God you made it Sebastien, we didn't need a another Lord lost."Mica groused affably at him. While all of this happened The female had fallen asleep being warmed by the great fire. Mica had then noticed the small female. "Who is the child?"Mica asked "She is my mate" answered Sebastien with a chesercats smile. Mica looked worried "she cant be more than sixteen. " Sebastien chuckled . "she is actuality thirty seven going on thirty eight on the twenty seventh" Mica was shocked. "She is a child of Winter."
Sebastien then took the female to his room and laid her on his huge bed. She awoke then very slowky as a small child would often. her eyes were of a pale emerald color,her hair was a dark brown with light brown and golden highlights.
Sebastien then started mumbling to himself "Child of snow and cold, Who are you and
who are your Sire and Dame? and where is your Coven?"
There was the sound of yelling and fighting downstairs brought Sebastien out of his
mutterings. The front library had Micah and an elder vampire who were arguing about something that was apparently very important
to him. "Where is our little one, our Sara!!"
Sebastien stepped into the room showing his authority as master. "What goes on in my house!" The elder turned at the angry sounding Sebastien with the same pissed off look on the elder's face Sebastien snorted and replied "Who are you? "
"I am Lord Jacob of the coven in Tennessee and my little one was coming here to new Orleans to visit her grandfather."Sebastien immediately calmed down at hearing this. "
I just met a small girl and she is up in my bedchamber." Jacob relaxed immediately upon hearing this. Then all of a sudden the front doors were opened with three large men. The men were vampires of the Tennessee coven, "Jacob!! our little one i in a bed sleeping as if she is dead"
one of the Tennessee vamp guards barked in distress .
both lords chuckled at the guards as if they knew something about Sara that did not. "Our Sara is all right . Lord Sebastien has offered our Sara his bed for the night and in the morning we will take our Sara to her grandfather. "but you all must be tired from the journey I offer my house BUT no one will disturb Sara while she sleeps. "While Sebastien was giving orders, unknown to all, Sara had awoken and found clothing to wear and came down to the great room and surprised all of them."Who died? " Everyone turned and with looks of relief on all the faces present.
Both lords went to Sara and Jacob gave her a hug, Sebastien then showed her to the Chair near the great warm fire, Jacob found another chair and sat next to her. "You gave your people a scare, young lady" scolded Jacob looking cross. "Lord Jacob, do not be so cross with her " Sebastien said in calming tones.
Then another visitor came and gave three sharp raps on the door. one of the servants poped in to announce the arrival of three more visitors.
Then three more came in from outside, One was an elder, Sebastien upposed it was
Sara's Grandfather, the other two were here uncles if Sebastien had to guess.
The new elder spoke "Grandchild, here you are, you are well. ""Yes Grandfather, thank
you" Both Sebastien and Jacob both looked at each other "Sara, who are these people" Jacob asked. Sara looked at Jacob and replied " This my Grandfather Johan, and my uncles Atticius and Marc" she replied happily. Sebastien just chuckled . the uncle nearest the door spoke with a Ukrainian accent, "Is there a place that we may our heads?" Sara gave a six year old giggle at hearing Uncle Atticus. "Yes Unclr all three of you will stay with me here because Sebastien and I will be married some time next year." Sara said respectful to her family At hearing that all men except for Sebastien who had even given Sara a ring to mark her as his,
well the family were shocked at what their little Sara had decreed to everyone "She is becoming a queen" a flabergassed Marc cried out
Then Johan spoke"Grandchilde where are our beds and where may and we dine?"
Sebastien had called his head servants and told them to make seven new beds and
make sure of there being now nine seating at the covens table. then everyone moved to the bed chamber to show where every one would be sleeping, after everyone gave their approval of their sleeping arrangement, they all went to the dineing hall, the servants had done what had been asked , thee talbe had been expanded with nine extra seats with all appropriate markings with Sebastien an Sara seated together.
Johan,Marc, and Atticus were seated together nearest their Sara and Jacob and his soldiers were closest to Sebastien.
Well they all siped wine and made noises about how long was an acceptable courting time and then who to and not invite to the wedding. After all that Sara was fighting not to fall asleep after drinking the very good wine. "I will take my niece to her bed" Marc stood up fast and took her to the bed chamber that was already chosen by Johan, because he didn't trust Sebastion.
"Well Lord Johan,I do understand your wanting your grand child to marry good stock , but even if she were vampire she needs to make her own decisions" "Yes you are right but even though she is still a human, she is considered a bany in other vampires eyes and I will not allow her to be transformed No matter how badly she wants the transformation"
Sebastien thought of what Johan had said so he said "I understand about not wanting her to be not one of us, but, what if she were hurt and changing her was the only way to save her...think of that." Johan squeezed his eyes as if trying not to think of that awful situation, "Your Lordship, I have thought of that very situation and then and only then will allow myself or her uncles to change her." "Not her mate whom will be expected"Sebastien nearly shouted and nearly sending the wine glasses flying off of the table.
Lord Jacob and Atticus both held their glasses up off the table so their wine would not be lost in Sebastien's shout of temper. "My Lord, do not lose your temper". Atticus said softly remaining calm, Sebastien coughed and straited out, "my lords, what happened?" Lord Marc asked seeing The spill of wine on the table.
"Lord Sebastien is tired and cant handle that our Sara is not of age to marry as of yet"Johan replied . "Lord Johan, our Sara is notable to rest, she says that her mate , Lord Sebastien is not feeling right to her." replied Marc with concern in his voice. Well upon hearing this Johan rose his eyes to Sebastien's Crimson shaded face "What did you do to our little one?" snarled Johan to a smugly smiling Sebastien.
Johan Screamed and started to pulled his hair out well, both Atticus and Marc started to look worried at first but then remembering what what
Marc had said about their little one had said about Lord Sebastien, "What did you do to Sara?!!!!"yelled Atticus and Marc was looking for his large Dagger to end Sebastien's life. Well Mica and Sara both appeared in the dinner hall, they both looked at what was going on and luckily Mica had brought help and took charge, "little one calm the elder if you can" Sara went to Johan and began trying to calm her grand father.
"My Lord, stop this foolishness,I like your hair were it is, please" she cooed at him Johan had his face bloody from his tears that had run from his dark eyes in which he had cried.
"Lords Atticus and Marc what is it that has brought such actions toward Lord Sebastien"Lord Mica had the lords separated and his men stood close so no one would harm any one. "The heathen has dared to take our Sara!!!!!" Marc screamed with bloody tears pouring out of his eyes. Both Sara and Mica were both stunned at what was said.
Lord Sebastien, while all this absurdity was happening he was calm,cool and collected. "they can't handle that their little girl has become a woman"Sebastien said to both Mica and Sara
to help them understand.
