Elliot

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Despite himself, it didn't take much for Elliot to become completely focused on the woman in his arms, the wonderful taste of her blood. Good god, she tasted impeccable. In the back of his mind, he was somewhat aware of the fact that Carter was dealing with his own woman out there in the hallway, but he wasn't worried. They were both in control and he knew that. Right now, he was simply too caught up in feeding to think about much else.

Eli was getting carried away, but it was as if this woman's blood was making him drunk. He couldn't stop now even if he wanted to. And before he knew it, he had practically drained her dry. She suddenly went limp in his arms, causing the vampire to finally pull away from her neck to see all that he had done to her. Blood was everywhere, on her, on him. The walls. The floor. Shit. He'd fucked up. Majorly. But he didn't have a moment to think over it before he overheard Carter growl out his name. Cursing under his breath, the blonde vampire let the woman in his arms drop to the floor before he raced out into the hallway. What now?

As he stepped from the room he'd just been in, though, Elliot realized why Carter had summoned him. Two women stood there, faces obscured by their masks. But he sensed their fear from feet away, could see them trembling. But they were not the women he and Carter had grabbed. No, these were two very different ladies. And, if he had to guess, Eli would say they'd just stumbled across the two vampires feeding, if their fear was any indication. "Fuck, Carter, what are these two doing here?" He growled out, striding down the hallway until he was only feet away. Now the women were cornered between him and Carter and Eli was going to make sure they didn't escape before their minds could be erased. Whatever they'd witnessed, he couldn't let them remember it.

She really thought they had a chance. It took her a second, but Madi quickly recovered and started to run, and Arianna released her arm so that they could run side by side. Back to the party, back to the party, they just had a few turns to go and they could make it. Shouldn't be that hard. Ari wasn't much of a runner, but adrenaline kept her going, and she sent a silent prayer to whatever higher power there was that neither she nor her new friend would twist their ankles in their heels. Ari couldn't remember what shoes Madi was wearing, but that was the furthest thing from her mind as she focused on not dying.

Arianna could hear the party. They were getting close! With a sudden new burst of energy, she took the lead, but that caused her to nearly crash into Carter as he appeared in front of them. With a yelp, she skidded to a halt, but she'd been going too fast. She fell forwards in her attempt to not touch the bloody man in front of her, and she felt something in her ankle pop on the way down. With a sharp cry, she chomped down on her lip as she collapsed in a heap on the floor. Her eyes immediately sought out her ankle, which was already swelling in her black and red stiletto.

Snatching the thing off of her foot, she scrambled backwards towards Madi, stopping when she heard a voice from behind them. Oh no, not another one! She did remember now that she'd heard two male voices, not just one. Looking over her shoulder, shoe in hand as though she were going to use it as a weapon, she stopped dead when she saw that he too was covered in blood. "Get away from us!" Arianna twisted her body and moved towards the wall, so that she could see everyone with just a slight turn of her head.

Carter drank in the sight of the two girls before him, though his eyes were drawn to the blonde as she made a mess of herself. Quirking a brow in her direction, he frowned yet otherwise made no movement as she tumbled to the ground, giving away her bad ankle with one look. Tsking, he lifted his head to look at Elliot as the other vampire appeared, a flash of anger replacing his collected expression. "We took a risk." He told his friend, before looking down at the girls again.

This time his eyes were drawn to the dark haired beauty. He could see that she wanted to be brave, but as she pushed past him his hand shot out and grabbed her wrist, drawing her closer to him. Not caring if she or her outfit got bloody, he gripped her by the shoulders, staring down into her eyes. Releasing one shoulder, he reached up to undo her mask with a surprisingly gentle touch. As the mask fell away from her eyes, he tilted his head. "Quite the beautiful pair, really."

Slowly, his lips spread out into another grin. "Brother, I think we may have just hit the jackpot." Peering down at the blonde still on the ground, he waited a moment before continuing. "Now, hear me out. We could compel them, sure. Send them back to the party. One with a limp ankle, it would seem, unless we compel her to drink from one of us and heal. Or..." He bit his lip, looking back at the girl in his hands. "We keep them. Either way, it won't be long before one of the others finds the other girls. We need to clean them up, and get Smitty." Their clean up man, compelled to clean without questioning.

"What do you say?"

Madeleine

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Madeleine realized that Arianna had fallen just as she made to push past the man standing in front of them. But when she faltered to turn back to her friend, she was suddenly grabbed by the wrist and pulled into the man's body. She immediately went stiff with fear, eyes wide as she whimpered, attempting to pull herself out of his rather solid grasp. He was lifting off her mask, however, before she could even think to stop him and she froze, wondering what in the hell these two men had in store for her and Arianna.

The dark haired woman tilted her head, just enough to see her friend pressed against the wall nearby and looking just as terrified. They were cornered now, she realized, as a second man approached, completely ignoring Ari's demand to stay away from them. Swallowing nervously, Madi once again tried to free herself from this man's iron grasp, but what he said next had her stiffening in fear. Compel them? Keep them? What the fuck?

"Let us go, you sick fucks," she snapped angrily, twisting and turning in Carter's grasp desperately. She knew she was getting the blood all over her as well, which made her stomach roll, but she tried to ignore it for now. Freedom was more important. Glancing at Arianna, she tried to figure out just how hurt her friend was, though could tell quite immediately that her ankle had gotten twisted. Whether it was sprained or broken or just a little twisted up, she wasn't sure. But Madi knew her injury would make escape more difficult. Though maybe... maybe Madeleine could distract the men while Arianna ran? That could work, right?

Elliot

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Elliot watched silently as the blonde one stumbled before falling to the ground, a cry of pain leaving her mouth. Sighing heavily, the vampire shook his head, not amused that the woman had already managed to hurt herself. But he couldn't deny her beauty... Either of theirs, really. Still, he was feeling too pissed off by the fact that he and Carter had fucked up to let his thoughts linger on that for long. "I know we took a risk, but we've never been this fucking bad," he growled back at his brother, taking a few steps closer in his anger.

The vampire's gaze momentarily flickered to the dark haired woman as Carter lifted her mask from her face, though he rolled his eyes at her attempts to escape his brother's grasp. She'd need vampire strength for that, not that she knew, of course. Shaking his head, he turned his gaze back to the blonde, who was now pressed against the wall and glowering at him. "Sorry, sweetheart. We're not going anywhere," he cooed to her, smirking as he spoke. Then Carter's voice filled the silence between the four of them, addressing him. His eyes flicked to him now, brows furrowing in momentary scepticism at that. Keep them? What the hell was Carter thinking?

But as Elliot considered it, he released a sigh and shrugged a little in thought. Maybe Carter had a point. Besides, they'd never kept humans before. It could be rather... fun. Different. Entertaining, even. "Fine. Let's keep them, then," he stated with an affirmative nod of his head, gaze sliding between the two young women as he wondered just what was going through their minds. Oh, this would definitely be fun. "Now, c'mon. Let's get Smitty in there to clean up that mess and get these two in the bathroom to clean up. They're going to need fresh clothes," he murmured, sticking his hands into his suit pant pockets as if this were the most casual thing in the world.

Arianna couldn't help but think that the worst possible outcome of this scenario was death. She didn't want to die, and never see her father again. He'd be heartbroken, she knew it. He wouldn't last without her there to ensure he didn't waste away. The thought of not seeing him again tore her apart, but it also fueled a fire inside of her. Looking between the two men, she pushed herself up, using the wall and making sure she didn't put any pressure on her ankle. Kicking her shoes off, she stood, balanced on one foot as Carter casually suggested that they "keep them".

What the hell did that mean?

Madi struggled in the mans grip, and Ari felt utterly helpless against the obviously stronger men. "You can't keep us here." She told the blonde one, her eyes narrowing. "If you don't let us go, I'll scream. Someone will hear us. I know we're not far from the party." The party that she'd never wanted to go to in the first place. Fuck. Her hands balling into fists, she turned towards Carter and Madi. "Let her go now."

As the dark haired beauty struggled in his arms, Carter just chuckled and tightened his grip. It was effortless on his part, really, to keep her pressed against him. Watching the blood transfer from his clothes to hers, and even to parts of her skin, made him bite his lip with anticipation. A single fang poked out of his lip, the other one hidden behind, as he grinned down at her. "The more you struggle, the harder I hold." He told her softly, looking up as her blonde friend demanded she be let go.

"I don't think so." He appeared to think for a moment, then shrugged one shoulder. "Smitty is in his room. We'll go there first. I imagine one of our sisters at the very least would have some clothes they could wear." He knew that their mother wouldn't be exactly thrilled with this situation, but she wasn't one to interfere unless absolutely necessary. She'd let Carter and Elliot keep the girls. Swaying a little bit to the music they could hear through the walls, he looked down at the brunette.

"What's your name, sweetheart?"

Madeleine

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Madeleine had no time to think up a distraction that might work to get them out of here. These men were too smart and much too strong. She was realizing that now, as she tried to escape this stranger's grasp. His grip was like a vice. She whimpered a little as Arianna demanded that she be let go, but her demands got them nowhere. The man simply grinned down at her and, as she risked a glance up at him, Madi noticed the single fang poking through. Wait, fang? What in the fucking hell?

Swallowing nervously, the dark haired woman tried to get her wits about her. Iron strength, fangs, blood. That all pointed towards something she'd been positive was simply a Halloween costume. In fact, if she hadn't known better, she would have guessed that this was some October 31st party. But she knew that wasn't it. This was a nightmare, not Halloween.

When the man holding her to him asked for her name, she shot him a deathly glare, her jaw clenched in anger. "You think I'm going to just give you my name after all of this?" She snapped at him, dark eyes filled with a mix of fear and fury. She might not have been as strong as he was, but she wouldn't give him the satisfaction of giving into him and his friend so easily.

Elliot

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Elliot took another step closer to the blonde woman as she slid her other heel off, now barefoot as she stayed pressed against the wall. For a brief moment, the vampire let his gaze slide over her form, up and down, before he met her eyes through her mask once more. From what he could see of her, she really was quite the looker. Hm, he wouldn't mind this at all, regardless of how much trouble the girls would try to cause.

She was speaking to him a moment later, though, and Eli lifted the corner of his mouth in an amused smirk. Ah, so she was going to play that card, was she? Well, no matter. That would be easy to deal with. Elliot waited a beat until the blonde had turned around to face the other woman and his brother. Then he made his move, swooping in and sliding an arm around her waist. With his other, he lifted his hand to her mouth, effectively quieting her in case she really was about to scream.

"Oh honey... don't you worry about that," the vampire whispered in her ear, still smirking as he did so. "We have far better plans. And I'll even carry you, so you don't have to walk on that hurt little ankle of yours." He chuckled under his breath, keeping her back against his chest as his eyes flickered up to find Carter. "Well, shall we head on down and find good ol' Smitty?" Eli suggested, eyes alight with their newfound fun.

She didn't realize her mistake until it was too late. When she'd turned towards Carter and Madi, she'd wanted to appear at least a little intimidating. How intimidating could a 5'2 blonde with a hurt ankle really be, though? Not paying attention to the man behind her, she jumped when she felt his arm slide around her waist. Opening her mouth to cry out, he effectively silenced her with a hand over her mouth. Whimpering against his grip, she twisted around in his grip, feeling hot tears suddenly spring to her eyes. This couldn't be it... it couldn't be over.

As the guy behind her asked the other one if they should be off, he looked up from Madi, who'd just refused to give her name. Smirking through her unfallen tears, she sniffed as Carter nodded. Without warning, he picked Madi up and whispered something in her ear, then lifted his head triumphantly and started off down the hall. Crying out for her friend against the hand covering her mouth resulted in a muffled sound of sorts, one that would no doubt go ignored.

Feeling his deep chuckle through her back, she shivered, tilting her head up just a touch to try and keep the tears in check. Madi was out of eyesight now, and Arianna glanced down the hall, in the direction they'd been going before Carter appeared. What she saw made her stop, her eyes widening. It was the door. The door they'd gone through to get to the party. Right there. So close, but they hadn't been fast enough. This sent her into a panicked frenzy, and she fought against Elliot, crying and kicking and thrashing.

He should have known she wouldn't give her name up that easily, but alas, he'd tried anyway. Shrugging again as she denied him her name, he simply grinned over at Eli. "Sounds good to me." And without warning, he picked her up bridal style, leaning down to whisper into her ear before moving. "I'd let you walk, but I don't want to chase you. Yet." Leaning up, he met her gaze, his expression turning deadly serious. "Scream and I'll put you to sleep." Whether that was permanent or not, he left up to her imagination.

Feeling smug, he straightened and started off down the hallway, not bothering to look behind him to see if Eli were following. He sensed his brothers presence behind him the entire way to Smitty's room, where he knocked with his foot and waited for an elderly gentleman-- obviously human-- to answer the door. "Back hall, by the party room. Needs cleaning, please, Smitty." The man nodded and immediately set off to gather supplies and start the long process of cleaning the bodies and blood.

Turning back to Eli, Carter thought for a moment. "Shall we take them to the shared room, for now?"

Madeleine

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Madeleine hadn't noticed the blonde one about to snatch up her friend until it was too late to warn Arianna. She whimpered in fear as she watched the girl struggle in his grasp. They were both doomed. These men were clearly stronger than either of them and it really didn't look like they'd be letting them go any time soon.

And then she was suddenly being scooped up into the darker haired man's arms. A shriek of terror escaped her mouth as she squirmed in his hold, tears pricking her eyes now. What he whispered in her ear had those pools of tears soon falling down her cheeks. "You can't fucking do this to us," she cried quietly, not wanting to risk him putting her to sleep (whatever he'd meant by that) if she spoke any louder.

Releasing a shaky breath, the young woman tried to keep her tears at bay, her hands shaking as they rested in her lap, helpless. That was exactly how she felt. There was no way she could get them out of this. And seeing her friend looking just as hopeless didn't help matters. God, she just wanted to go home. Sniffling rather pathetically, Madi once again tried to struggle in the man's grasp, now that he was simply standing outside of the door that another man had just come out of. Absently, she guessed he was the Smitty they'd been discussing, but she paid him no mind. Clearly he was useless if he was obeying these men. Swallowing thickly, the young woman continued with her thrashing instead, not about to go down without a fight, even if she was tipsy, terrified, and practically helpless.

Elliot

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Elliot had no issues keeping his grip on the girl in his arms. The longer she kept struggling, the tighter his arm grew around her frame, keeping her locked in place against him. She wasn't getting away. And her little whimpers would get her nowhere. No one but them would be able to hear or her friend, not if he got his way. "Oh, sweetheart, your little friend will be just fine," he whispered in her ear, his smirk seemingly permanent as it continued to rest upon his lips. "Now, why don't we go follow them, hm? I think we should probably get ourselves cleaned up." As he spoke, he used the hand that had been covering her mouth to undo her mask, curious despite himself to see what she looked like without it on.

The mask fell to the grounds moments later. And with that, Eli whisked the girl into his arms, so that she was laying bridal style against his chest, the same way Madi was with his brother. For a moment, the vampire didn't move, instead taking those few seconds to admire her features as he gazed down at her. "My my, you really are a beautiful one, aren't you?" He cooed to her, flashing her a charming smile before turning and heading down the hall after Carter.

Smitty passed them on their way, supplies now in hand, to clean up their little... mess of sorts. Shaking his head a tad, Elliot simply continued until he'd reached Carter and the woman in his own arms. "Hmm... I think the shared room would be perfect," he nodded in agreement, flashing his brother a smirk (and not bothering to hide his fangs as he did so) before leading the way up to their shared room. He made sure to take all the back hallways and stairs, though, knowing it would simply be too much work to deal with anyone else who might catch them.

Feeling sick to her stomach, Arianna forced herself to remain very, very still as he whispered into her ear. Sniffling again, she jerked her head away from his lips, determined to be stubborn and defensive in any way she could. The hand that had been covering her mouth slipped away, and she drew in a shaky breath. Feeling a tug on the tie of her mask, she closed her eyes, wishing almost immediately that she hadn't. A soft squeal escaped her lips as he swept her off of her feet, her hands automatically clasping together around his neck as if to keep herself from falling.

A split second later, when she didn't feel herself flying through the air anymore, she opened her eyes. He was staring down at her, like she was a prime choice of meat and he was debating on purchasing her. Flushing, she quickly averted her gaze and withdrew her hands. Unsure of what to actually do with them, she set them in her lap, laying stiffly in his arms. "Fuck off." She whispered harshly at his comment that she was a beautiful one. Her thoughts from earlier returned; she might never see her father again. She and Madi might never get out of here.

But she couldn't think like that. Eventually, there would be an out, and they would take it. Forcing herself to ignore him the best she could, she said nothing as they trekked through the hallways. The older gentleman wouldn't even look at her, no matter how much she mentally willed him to. At the mention of a shared room, she shrank into herself. "I don't want to go." She whispered, the words escaping her lips before she could stop them.

The shared room was nothing more than a shared living space, one of the 'living rooms' shared by the vampire clan. The one he had in mind was the one between his and Elliot's room, shared only usually by the two of them. The others came and went, of course, but there were so many rooms in the large house that every member of the clan could pretty much have their own. Carter led the way through the halls without missing a beat, leading them down many hallways and around countless corners before finally stopping in front of a door. Nudging it open, he stepped into the large room. Setting Madi down, he waited until the other two entered before shutting-- and locking-- the door.

"Try to escape, love, and your friend won't make it long without you." He warned her, eyes lingering on her figure for a moment before he stepped further into the room. Leaving Madi to her own devices, whether she wanted to explore or remain by the door, he unbuttoned his suit jacket and took it off before loosening his tie and undoing a few of the buttons on the undershirt. He'd settle for cleaning up now, though a decent shower would be necessary, as well as a washing of his clothes.

"Welcome, ladies. I do hope you'll enjoy your stay." He turned, gesturing to the room. "You're welcome to this room, the attached bathrooms, and our bedrooms, of course." A wicked grin spread across his lips. "You'll find the doors to the hallways are locked, and since you're on the second floor, it's quite a jump out of the window. Not to mention, we could catch you before you hit the ground." Chuckling, he started to remove his shirt, turning away from them. Going into one of the bathrooms, he left the door open as he started to clean himself up a bit. "Something about champagne makes the blood just pop."

Madeleine

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Once Madeleine was on her feet again, she shoved herself away from the man who had grabbed her, a look of disgust on her face. It wasn't just what he'd done to her that made her feel that way, however; it was also the blood. It was absolutely everywhere. And it was once again causing her stomach to roll. God, she hoped she wouldn't be sick. Swallowing thickly, the young woman shot Carter a glare as he warned her, though she did stow away his words in the back of her mind. Whatever happened, she wouldn't put Arianna at risk. The girl was all she had left right now.

Madi turned at the sound of the two behind her, though, and immediately rushed to Ari's side once she, too, was set down. Her cheeks were wet with tears as she slid her arms around her friend's waist, hugging her tightly in the hopes of finding some form of comfort. She knew they were both terrified out of their minds, especially now that it seemed the men really were set on... keeping them. The thought was enough to send a shudder down Madi's spine.

Then her capturer was speaking again and this time Madeleine just couldn't help it. "You're both vampires, aren't you?" She blurted out before she could stop herself, teary eyes wide with both disbelief and fear. There was no other explanation for all that she and Ari had witnessed tonight. The murders, the blood, the fangs, the strength. And, apparently, the speed, if she was understanding Carter correctly. She'd seen several vampire films before; if the supposed real ones were like their fictional ancestors, well, she was now fairly confident that was what Carter and Elliot were.

Elliot

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Elliot allowed his brother to take the lead as they made their way through the maze of halls and corners and stairways. Hell, if the girls happened to escape, he was pretty sure they would never be able to actually discover the way out from this puzzle of a mansion. Even he struggled sometimes, if it weren't for the fact that he could simply jump from a window and be completely fine. Shaking his head, the vampire refocused on the task at hand, ignoring the woman in his arms for now. When they reached the shared room, however, he deposited her on her feet beside Madi, his signature smirk ever present on his face.

A chuckle of amusement left Eli's mouth when Carter spoke up, warning the girls about any attempts to escape. He shot them both a pointed look, then moved to strip out of his own blood soaked clothes. God, this was definitely one major con of feeding the way they had tonight. It was downright messy. The clean-up process afterwards sure took some work, but hell was it worth it tonight. They'd gotten a good meal each and two beautiful women out of it.

As Elliot unbuttoned his dress shirt, he wandered over towards Carter, who was stood in his own bathroom not too far off. "What are we going to do with them, Carter? Just keep them in here forever? That's kind of harsh, even by my standards," he muttered, tugging his soiled pale blue shirt off and then going to work on his dress pants. He really didn't care if he stripped down to his boxers in front of the other vampire or the women lingering out in the shared room. It was really the least of his problems right now, but figuring out what to actually do about the two they'd basically kidnapped was much more important. He couldn't help but wonder if Carter had had an idea in mind when he'd suggested it or if the idea had simply popped into his head and out his mouth. It could go either way with that man, he knew that.

As she suspected, her expression of not wanting to go to the room was ignored. She tried to remember the turns Carter took, but after a few of them, the hallways started to blend together and she couldn't focus. Part of her wondered if he'd done that on purpose. Not that it mattered much. They arrived at the room and both girls were deposited on their feet, Arianna having to lean on the wall almost immediately and lift her ankle off the ground.

As Madi slid her arms around Ari's waist, Arianna found herself returning the hug eagerly, wanting to feel something comforting as well. They were in this together now, no turning back. Either they both escaped or neither of them did. Flicking her gaze upwards as Eli headed in Carter's direction, Arianna rested her chin on Madi's shoulder, eyes on the vampires. She was about to say something about trying to find a way out, when Madi cut her off.

V... vampires?

That changed the game entirely. Having missed Eli's smirk earlier where his fangs were out, the words blindsided her completely. "What?" She whispered automatically, pulling back just enough to look at Madi, to see if she were serious. "That's impossible."

It didn't take long for Elliot to appear in the doorway to Carter's bathroom, asking what his intentions were with the girls. Shrugging, he finished washing up before turning to Eli, placing a hand on the sink as he peered past his brother, to the girls out in the main area. They hadn't moved, not really. Not that he could blame them; if he were in their shoes, he'd be scared shitless, too. Letting his gaze land back on Eli, he pursed his lips. To be frank, no, he hadn't given much thought to what they'd do with them. "No, they don't have to stay in here forever. They'll probably always need one of us with them, though."

Shrugging, he pushed off of the sink and stepped past Eli, turning back to say, "We'll see how it goes. It'll be nice, though, to have our own personal bloodbags, instead of waiting around to hunt. Mom might not like it at first, but she won't say anything against it, you know that. As long as they behave." With that said, he turned towards the girls, having spoken up with his last sentence so they could hear him as well.

At Madi's words, surprise flittered across his face, but then he grinned, showing his fangs proudly. "Very good, sweetheart." He clapped his hands together a few times, slowly approaching them the entire time. "Not that we were exactly trying to hide it there in the end, but you weren't supposed to know at the party. No one was. I give you props for figuring it out." Standing before them, he glanced over at Ari, quirking a brow at her. "Impossible? I think not." And as if to prove a point, with lightning quick speed, he reached out and grabbed Madi and within seconds had her over by the couch.

Madeleine

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

As Arianna let her own arms wrap around her, Madeleine couldn't help but press as close as she could. "How's your ankle feeling?" She asked in a concerned whisper, noticing the way the other girl refused to put any weight on it. She was concerned about her, for the last thing either of them wanted was to be injured. But Madi would do what she could to help protect Ari.

And then those words were slipping from her mouth. For a moment, Madi was kicking herself mentally, wondering why she'd said that. Of course vampires weren't real. As Arianna questioned her, a look of pure disbelief on her face, the dark haired woman bit her lip. She was serious, but at the same time, she kind of felt stupid for ever saying it now. At least, she did until Carter turned around and confirmed it. Her eyes went wide seeing the fang-filled grin on his face and the way he spoke to them. Swallowing thickly, she parted her lips to question him once more, when she was suddenly picked up and moved over by the couch. It happened so quickly that everything blurred around her until she was finally still again.

Then she panicked. "Let me go!" She screamed at Carter, hands once again shoving at him in an attempt to free herself from his grasp. Knowing now that these two men really were something she'd thought was only fictional had her heart racing in her chest like a racehorse, eyes wide and filled with fresh tears. Glancing at Arianna, she tried to gauge her friend's own emotions, bottom lip trembling with fear as she did so.

Elliot

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Elliot was in his black boxers by the time Carter responded to him, after eyeing the girls for a good few seconds. The blonde man chuckled a little at that, but nodded his head in agreement. That would do, he figured. Although babysitting had no appeal to him, it wouldn't be quite so bad if the girl he was babysitting was as beautiful as the ones out there. "In that case, I call dibs on the blonde," he returned a moment later, angling his body so he could eye the one in question with a wicked smirk on his face. Oh, this would be very fun indeed.

And Carter sure made a good point when he mentioned the girls being their own personal blood bags. Now that was convenient. Humming his approval, he made to go ahead and start washing up in the sink when he suddenly heard one of the girls' statements. Elliot paused, then slowly turned to face the two with surprise etched onto his features. Ah, so they'd figured them out already, had they? Well, now that he thought about it, he and his brother hadn't exactly tried to hide it much.

Hm, no matter. They could have fun with this. And it seemed the other vampire already was, as Eli watched him snatch Madi and drag her over to the couch in a flash of movement. Chuckling at her clear panic, he shook his head, then moved in lightning quick speed to stand by the blonde who had been left to her own devices by the door. "Guess it's not so impossible, is it?" He teased in a whisper, an amused smirk on his full lips as he gazed down at her, lifting a hand to brush her hair back from her eyes.

Oh what a night this had turned out to be. One minute, Madi was there, in her arms-- the next minute the girl was gone. Blinking in surprise, Arianna looked up, only to find that she now stood across the room, with one of the guys. He was grinning and holding her tight, tight enough that even when she realized what had happened and started to struggle she couldn't break free. Ari noticed most of the blood was gone from him now, though he didn't seem concerned with the blood on Madi, considering it had mostly dried.

"Wait-" She went to take a step, stopping dead when Eli appeared in front of her. Her breath caught in her throat at his appearance, and she couldn't help but dip her eyes to see what he had on display. Forcing herself to look back up, she opened her mouth to speak, though nothing came out. "I don't understand." She finally choked out, her eyes finally catching sight of his fangs. Shaking her head, she closed her eyes, reopening them a moment later.

Stiffening as he reached out to move some of her hair, she stood there until he finished, hating how helpless she felt. "Don't touch me. I am not yours. You can't keep me here!" Getting more and more worked up, she couldn't help what she did next. Drawing back her hand, she sprung forward, hoping to catch him off guard and slap him.

Spoiler: Current Outfit

Carter had always been a bit show-offy, so any time he had a chance to portray just how strong or smart or fast he was, he took it. Processing everything within seconds, he made sure to have an iron grip on Madi before she could even start to struggle. Leaning down, he rested his chin on her shoulders. "Believe me now?" He asked the blonde across the room, lifting a hand to move some hair off of her shoulders and out of his way. Planting a soft, chaste kiss on Madi's neck, feeling her pulse beneath her skin. How easy it would be to bite down...

Resisting the urge, he lifted his head. Without warning, he spun the girl in his arms, so that she faced him. "What brought you here tonight, my dear?" He asked her, his eyes scanning hers. "We sent out the invite, I know, but what specifically made you want to come? Boredom? Loneliness? The hope to find true love? Trust me, love, I've heard it all before. Never been quite as taken as I am right now, though, so you should consider yourself special."

Pursing his lips, he pushed her back a little bit, studying her. "You'll be needing new clothes, of course. There's a shower through there. Maybe Abriella has something you can borrow. She's nice enough, for the most part, and about your size. Do you prefer dresses? Pants? Skirts? Nothing at all?"

Madeleine

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Madeleine stood rigidly as the man holding her rested his chin on her shoulder, brushing her hair aside as he did so. It effectively stopped her struggling, instead eliciting a shaky exhale as she wondered what he would do. And then he kissed her neck, causing a loud whimper to leave her mouth as she instinctively leaned as far away from him as possible.

It was useless, though, because he spun her around a second later. Madi stared up at him with a fearful glare on her features, her lips pressed together in a thin line as she refused to answer his questions. She wouldn't cooperate with either of them if she had it her way. They could ask all the questions in the world, but that didn't mean she had to answer them, right? So instead the dark haired woman chose to glower up at Carter, fire in her eyes despite the fear in her veins. Besides, she wasn't about to admit that she'd come tonight because she'd been feeling lonely and had hoped to make new friends.

Only when the conversation shifted to that of getting her cleaned up did Madeleine respond. "T-shirts, pants," she answered, plain and simple, as she averted her gaze to the floor at their feet. Her 5'6" frame wasn't exactly what some might consider tall, but Madi felt a sudden urge to appear as small as possible. She just wanted to hide and escape this hell. But first and foremost, she wanted out of these bloody clothes and painful heels. She was uncomfortable as fuck right now and was sure it showed.

Elliot

━━━━━━❦━━━━━━

Pure amusement shone in Elliot's eyes when he noticed the girl before him doing a once over his body. "Like what you see, huh?" He toyed with her a little, stepping closer to force her to look up at him. There was a wicked gleam in his eyes as he messed around and it was clear as day that he was enjoying this. Couldn't say the same for these girls, though, of course.

As the blonde choked out a few words, Eli couldn't help but let a sympathetic expression cross his features, though of course it wasn't genuine. Before he could pretend to comfort her, however, she was lifting a hand to slap him. His lightning quick reflexes were no match for her and within seconds, he had her pinned against the wall behind her, his large hands grasping her wrists in an iron grip.

"Sorry, sweetheart, this is a violence free zone. I'm afraid you'll have to refrain from slapping me," Elliot whispered to her, amusement dancing in his eyes before he ducked his head and buried his face into her hair. "You do smell absolutely delightful, though, goodness. If I hadn't just eaten, I would be oh so tempted to taste you right now, too..." Trailing off, the vampire brushed his nose along her throat, able to hear just how loudly her heart was pounding in her chest as he kept her pinned to the wall. In the back of his mind, he was aware of her injured ankle and knew he should tend to that sooner rather than later. But for now, he was content to play with her a bit. After all, Carter seemed to be in the same boat. So why not have a little fun first?
