Love is a Four Letter Word (For itconsumesher)

[prodigalsavior]

Every now and then, the constriction of the village tightened around him until he wanted to throw something through a wall. It wasn't often--for the most part he'd learned to be content in his three years here--but when it happened, it was like a restless burning he couldn't shake.

He was a vampire, a predator. Once upon a time, he'd been death lurking in the shadows. He took what he wanted. He didn't ask for permission.

And now...well, on several levels, yes, he had everything he wanted. People weren't happy about it, but so far no matter how badly he acted, no matter how far he pushed against the boundaries, no one snapped back. He didn't know what to make of that. Shouldn't they be snapping back? Shouldn't someone be drawing lines?

Granted, he was all ready to rip through the lines already drawn, as well as someone's throat. He remembered the last real taste of fear he'd had, the night he and Rebekah had hunted those girls through the club, and he shivered just a bit. Biting his lower lip, he sent her a message.

My room. Now. I have a plan.

He pushed himself to follow her, but she had a head start and was twice his age. Still, he wasn't just a second or two behind her, shaking his head as he came to a stop.

Rebekah smirked a little as he stopped in front of her. "What?"

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"I think you cheated," he said, leaning in to steal a kiss.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"Do you think I'd do something like that?" She tilted her head slightly, kissing him back as she slid her fingers into his hair again.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"Mmhmm....oh, absolutely," he murmured against her lips. "What was it you wanted to do here...?"

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

Suddenly she smirked a little more, pulling back. "We need to go to your room."

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"I like where this is heading," he said with a smirk.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"I thought you might." She chuckled, leaning in to kiss him again before she pulled away completely. "Come on, let's go up."

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

Damon nodded a little, taking her hand to lead her to the elevator, smirking a bit in memory, which he likely would do for a while now.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"I can guess what you're thinking about." Rebekah replied with a smug little look, leaning back against the elevator wall.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"Are you telling me you aren't?" he asked, moving over to her to steal a kiss.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"I'm thinking about a repeat some time in the future." She slid her arms around his waist, kissing him back again.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"We should take regular elevator rides," he said against her lips, smiling a bit.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"Mmm, I agree." She nodded, snaking a hand up to tug sharply at his hair, pulling his head back as she leaned in to playfully nip at his neck just as the elevator doors slid open. "But, for now, let's go to your room."

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

Damon shivered at the nip, eyes darkening, but he shifted a bit away at her words. "Yes, m'lady," he said with a bit of a smirk, moving off the elevator.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

She smirked as she enjoyed the way his eyes darkened, sliding past him after she let go. "Very good, m'lord." Walking down the hall to his room, she glanced over with an interested look. "Do you trust me?"

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"Impeccably," he assured her, fishing out his key when they got to his door. He opened it, and let her precede him into the room.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"So you would let me tie you up?" She asked it so casually as she entered his room, immediately peeling off her jacket to toss it onto the couch.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

Damon arched an eyebrow in surprise at the question, but he didn't look too concerned. "If that's what you want...yes. I'll let you."

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

Rebekah chuckled, turning around to look at him as she dropped on the edge of the bed. "I was considering it earlier."

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

He smirked a little. "And what were you thinking of doing to me?"

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

Rebekah reclined slightly, catching her weight on her elbows as she continued to watch him with a little smirk. "Tie you up, maybe compel you not to break free till I give you permission to." She shrugged a little. "Then play all sorts of games with you."

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"Well, all of that sounds perfectly intriguing save the compelling..." Yes, he could dish it, but taking it was another matter, and it had nothing to do with trust, really.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"We could do without the compulsion." She chuckled softly, watching him.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"I promise not to try to get away,' he conceded with a smile.
