In his smoke form, focused only on keeping his physical body withheld from the mortal world, he faded in and out of consciousness. Bringing the witch back had taken immense concentration and skill from him, but he knew that the fight wasn't over yet. By bringing her back, he connected them even...

Vaughn watched his magic take hold of Esme, felt it slide into her and run into a wall. He used his magical will to push through that wall -- and it worked -- but it also set off a fail safe of sorts. Or something. He couldn't figure out what. The male watched Liz start to panic, yet the events...

Vaughn was having fun, enjoying himself even. This human judged him while knowing nothing. She knew nothing of his world, of his culture, that he came from another world. She summoned him without any clue of what she did, yet acted as though it were no fault of her own. Everything was a choice...

Clever, clever girl, he slid the words into both of their minds at once. Knowing where I am takes skill, usually an untrained witch could never pull it off. For the sheer amusement of it, he stayed in his dissipated form. I think I rather like the way I am now. You certainly asked for me to be...

As Liz entered the kitchen, the container that held the horrible stench of a liquid called coffee was lifted up and one of the cupboards opened as well. A mug came floating out and coffee was poured into it. After setting down the coffee container once more, the mug floated over to Liz and...

You are ever so kind, he said sarcastically in response to her eagerness to get rid of him and her refusal to pay for anything when he sought out his family name for the sole purpose of providing for himself. But that won't be necessary. I can simply use magic to transport us to where we need to...

He moved around her to the fridge and pulled out the pitcher with water, admiring how cool it was inside. Is this also... electricity? He poured himself more water and put the pitcher back into the large white box thing, closing it as though he were afraid all the cold would run away. Vaughn...

Taking the glass full of clear liquid, he looked at where it came from and took a sip. It's cold, he purred into her mind. And so pure.. Like you, Esme. He drank all of it, addicted to the sensations it offered. The substance was cold and fresh and tasted so good sliding down his throat. May...

Vaughn smelled the familiar stench of coffee and wrinkled his nose. He never understood how humans could drink something so bitter. At least tea had a sweetness to it. He wondered if the human was addicted to the bitter substance that helped keep humans awake through long hours even with so...

Vaughn grinned at her comment about being called mistress, and then the witch giving her his name. Such a rare gift! It wasn't often he learned the names of his contractors. Esme, he purred her name into the girl's mind. Beautiful name. He watched her trail into another unit of the house and...

At her command, he took on a solid form once more but was careful to stay out of the invisible bubble she created for herself. He didn't want to cause her discomfort, though her reactions amused him. Intending to learn more about this witch, he knew he would have to tread carefully in this game...

Then it appears we are at an impasse, Vaughn backed off as it clearly seemed to only make her more upset. He could hear her heartbeat thudding at him, filling him with her fear. The emotion was misplaced, and disgusting to feel. He'd never known fear, nor did he need to. This witch had nothing...

The panic in her mildly amused him, though he knew that upsetting his new master would do no good. With a small roll of his eyes, he went from smoke to solid form. Only a few feet from her, he lounged on the futon in the room lazily. Don't worry, you're not hallucinating, my dear. I am the...

He watched her awaken and look around her, as if trying to remember the previous night. His smoke form followed her physical form as she cleaned and prepared herself. It wasn't until she got to the room where she had summoned him that her mood changed, and he could feel the panic that set in...

He watched her collapse to the floor and waited until he could hear the evenness in her breathing. Finally, he sighed. He almost knelt down to pick her up but remembered himself and froze. Don't touch her. It echoed in his own mind like a whip slashing across his face. He went to find a blanket...

"Look, whoever the hell you are, how did you get into my apartment? No - wait - I don't care, leave." Vaughn raised an eyebrow in amusement. He could hear the slur in her voice, see the wobble in her stature. She managed to summon him even in her current state? Alcohol was said to dampen the...

A bell chimed in the distance, bringing up Vaughn's eyes from his new toy. An angel who had betrayed her people had been cast out of her own realm and into his. The King had no interest in angels, for there was always the concern that they might purify the demon within. He no longer recognized...

I R I S Iris was full of adrenaline as she and Inir raced through the trees. Shapes of darkness appeared every so often, making her anxious that they were running into a trap. And a trap it was that awaited them, stuck between the cave and a horde of who knows what coming at them. She gave a...

DRAGONS OF ERISDAR I R I S She stayed in the trees as the enemy approached Inir, her arrow trained in on a target. She was determined to stay hidden and help Inir to the best of her ability so he wouldn't have to worry about her getting hurt, since that had been the...

DRAGONS OF ERISDAR I R I S Eventually she had her horse follow into step behind Inir. The trip would be long and dangerous, but the sway of the trees was calming. With the sun peaking through the underbrush, it was like a night sky during the day. Shadow under the trees...
