He walked along with her to the beautiful manor, the place he and many of the Lamayan's called home. Some lived around the island of Capri, but most found this place to be a safe haven. The town knew of Vince to be the owner of the manor and he would ocassionally throw a dance or party for the all of the town including the humans. He liked to keep a sense of normalcy in the place as much as possible.
He lead Aurora with him down to the basement to a seperate training room he used to help young vampires learn to fight. There stood two workers from the manor with a cage that held a ravenous leaopard "Hmmm feisty isn't he" he said. He signaled for the two others to leave and now it was just Vince, Aurora, and the beast. "So are you ready my dear...or do you need to stretch first" he said with a chuckle.

The manor seemed so much different then the castle to which the Samari called home. It was more relaxed and modern, whereas the Samari's castle seemed medieval and cruel. One of the reasons that Aurora loved being a part of the Lamayan coven was because of how they ruled, and how they seemed like a large family. It was what had drawn her to the coven at first. Well, besides Vince that is. Capri was relatively close to where she'd been born, in Italy. Though this didn't seem relative as she'd traveled quite a bit in her lifetime.
Upon entering the basement she could already sense the leopard. It was the only thing in the room with a heartbeat. Sometimes she missed that, having a heartbeat that is. Not being able to hear it when she laid down, it was odd how some people took its rhythm for granted. Taking the leopards scent in she walked closer, now able to hear its blood coursing through its body. It was warm, the heat bearing off of the animal intensely. It was almost impossible to be around such a thing and not have its blood trickling down the back of her throat. Aurora loved animals, but it was almost irresistible in this situation.
"Stretch? Hun, I think your the only one who needs to worry about such a thing." She said confidently, smirking as she saw the look on his face. Even though she was simply being playful there was a bit of competition in her voice. Honestly, she thought she could compete on his level. Maybe not defeat him but pretty d**n close. In this scenario, she would certainly make an effort.

Vince had heard the heartbeat but did not let it effect him just yet. Being over 300 years old, he had time to perfect this. He had only been a vampire for 50 years before Marcus had caught him and taught him. He laughed at her "Well I'm stretched just fine...don't worry about the old fart here" he said to her. He looked at her and jumped on top of the cage. "Ready then?" he said. He waited for her to ready herself before opening the cage. The leopard immediately pounced at Aurora and Vince would wait a moment...let her have her fun before he got a few shots in. Ultimately he'd let her take the kill. He knew that she needed that to replace the hunt she'd been planning that night.
He moved with immense speed and even shoved the heavy cage to the side. He watched the leopard bound about. It look slow motion to vince but to the human eye the leopard was speedy.

Watching as Vince released the leopard from its cage Aurora simply smiled. This would more then likely be boring to both of the vampires as they were used to faster prey, however it would still entertain her for a moment. Already she could tell that Vince was holding back. He proably would all night, which bothered her. She didn't need to be treated like a child. It wasn't like he was doing it on purpose it was simply his nature and she understood this, though it bothered her still.
Watching as the leopard pounced at her, she anticipated this and sidestepped to avoid its attack. Aurora had always loved animals and for this reason alone she didn't realize until now why she'd agreed to this. Her yearning for a hunt had blinded the fact that she didn't want to harm an animal. Though she would feed off them she refused to fight them. Now returning back to her true self, she simply dodged the leopards attacks hoping to wear it out without hitting it back.

Vince watched her dodge the leopard trying to wear it out. He didn't mind taking out animals...esepscially those that were overpopulated or had done something vicious like this one had. He thought it was dog eat dog world and it was just part of nature to hunt and be hunted. Of coruse, vampires would always be the top of the food chain. He sped past the leopard and bit in it but did not release any venom. He just wanted to give it it's first blow. After that, he'd let Aurora take over. She seemed a little hesitant, but it wa sprobably because she'd much rather be taking out a Samari member right now...he knew that this would eventually satisfy her once she fed.

As she watched Vince bite into the animal, she simply couldn't help it anymore. It was as if her own animal isntincts were taking over. Civil or not, the vampire part of her was overtaking what was left of her soul. She knew that this small part of her was dark, it was monster-like and she hated it. But she also knew that she would need to use this part of her against the Samari. It was a great strength, yet a great weakness. For right now, she let it over take her.
Moving with almost impossible speed she ran circles around the leopard, deciding where best strike at. After only a few seconds she saw it was weak on its left side. Using this to her advantage, she struck, tackling the animal to the ground. Before it could react, she sunk her teeth into the back of its neck. Feeling the blood trickle down the back of her throat and feeling how warm it was she couldn't help but almost drain it. Realizing what she'd done, she snapped back into reality and pulled her teeth back. Licking the rest of the blood of her lips she looked over to Vince, wondering what he thought of her.

He watched her approacht he beast, her animal side comign out. Rather than think it ravenous...e foudn it beautiful. He embraced is inner beast durng the hunt and he told his clan to embrace it but control it. SHe was doing that just fine. Once she struck the leopard and began to dig in. He tore a piece of the hide off for himself to eat and suck from. He looked at her and backed away. Allowing her to have her own kill. She needed that boost to replace her usul hunt. "How did that feel?" he asked her to felt somewhat satisfied.
He looked at her and took in her beauty, even now. He never expected to fall so hard for someone again. But seeing this wild side made his heart sore, metaphorically of course. He hadn't heard his heart beat in hundreds of years. He ocassionally missed it. But he believe he had a soul...that most vampires did who chose to be concious of the world around him. His people had souls. And perhaps some of the Samari did too, but he couldn't see that at the moment.

He seemed to be thinking pretty deeply about something. What, she didn't know though it probably involved herself seeing as he was staring intently at her. Smiling as she saw herself being watched she stepped away from the carcus. It had been a nice meal, however the hunt was simply not satisfying. It wasn't the same as fighting one of her own species, of the Samari coven of course. Fights that you knew you could win were never fun. They didn't hold any interest with her, besides the feeding part of course. Secretly she wondered if there was a way she could continue hunting without Vince knowing.
"Thanks for dinner." She said smirking, seeing that he'd eaten some as well. The vampiress had been so absorbed in her own meal she hadn't noticed that Vince had taken some as well.
"I like to work out after I eat. Care to join me?" She then added, smiling as she walked closer to him, his handsome features always shocking her. He had such a rugidly handsome look, yet his soul was soft and composed. It was almost amazing how good of a person he was. He certainly kept her in check that is, and most of the coven for that matter.

He looked at the beautiful vampiress. Her beast coming forth as she ripped apart and drank her meal dry. He smiled at her and massaged her shoulders when she arose to him. "Well done my dear...well done..." He said with a smirk. "I see why you are so feared by the opposing forces...beauty, brains, and bite" he said. As she approached, he pulled her in for a soft kiss, tasting the blood still on her lips..."mmm you taste good...perhaps I should just eat you and be satisfied" he said with a smirk.
When she mentioned a work out he smiled and agreed to join. He was an active man and he loved exercise aand sport. He looked at her and nodded "where to then my dear...the gym upstairs? or the track?" The manor boasted an impressive gym that looked like a typical workout club. It also had a swimmign pool and basketball court which could rotate into a soccer court as well. Around the manor was a gravel path that many used as a track or to simply walk around on. He would let her choose where and how she planned to work off the meal, not that she needed to.

The animals blood made her feel so lively, so much more energized then she had before. It wasn't the same as human blood but obviously it would have to make do, she had no other choice. Though she still retained the urge to go on a hunt she restrained it and instead focused her energy on other things. Such as Vince, for example. The female sauntered over to him casually, a determined look in her eyes.
"Perhaps we could workout in a more traditional way?"
[/color] She said smirking, hoping he'd pick up the hint.[/blockquote][/size][/blockquote] Sorry so short, had to go.

He looked at her with a smirk. He had understood what she said. He smiled at her and cupped her face gently as he kissed her soft lips. "Anythign to satisfy you my love" he said to her. He took her hand and kissed it before taking her. "Where would you like to do said exercises?" he said. He was so enamored with her. She had such a regalness that made her smile. He was glad that she had final opened herself up to him.
(sorry so short)
