Slave to the Darkness

Cedric watched Claude take a handful of the chocolates and shove them in his mouth. He started to chew and then struggled to swallow. He got up and raced to the fridge and grabbed the milk and started to chug it. After he was done he turned and walked up to Cedric. "You asshole. Who that f.u.c.k makes spicy pepper chocolates?!?!?!" He grabbed the front of his shirt.

Yuki moved so fast and dug her nails into Claude's wrists without thinking until the scent of blood hit her. She let go and licked her fingers.

"Shit, I forgot that the vampire bond would drive her to protect you. You did not hurt me." Claude had lowered his hands so that Yuki would not take him as a threat.

"I will have to find other ways to fight you so that Yuki does not get involved then again I still have the Master's bond over her. I didn't undo it. Your reaction was priceless." Cedric started laughing.

Yuki picked up a mixed box and handed it to Claude. "This one is not spicy but I had a suspicion that you would not enjoy the spicy ones."

Adam reached his hand over and picked up one of the spicy chocolates and m.o.a.n.e.d satisfied. "I will eat them. Spicy things are great and there is no reason to waste the chocolates."

"Go right ahead." Claude took the box from Yuki and opened it seeing that there were no spicy ones inside and popped on in his mouth. The creamy truffle cooled down his taste buds a little more. "Thank you, Yuki for the other chocolates. Cedric, I want to duel you on the ship wolf to warlock."

Yuki started giggling, "I think that is not a good idea. The full moon is tonight and you have to look at Sephira. She will go through her first change. I will let you two duel after she has shifted."

Sephira looks at Yuki smiling, "Since you are all for challenging each other then maybe I should stay with the ladies then." She picked up a strawberry cream chocolate and popped it into her mouth.

Claude backs down and wraps an arm around her shoulders. "Sorry, I tend to get heated on the full moon nights and this one knows how it can get." He moves his head slightly to point to Cedric.

"No hard feelings. In Yuki's defense, she really did ask if you would like them. Adam, so you like spicy things?" Cedric watched Adam eat another chocolate.

Adam looked up at Cedric, "spicy food, in general, are connected to fire and that is where my powers stem from."

"Ah, that makes a lot of sense. Fire is what makes you stay alive. It is quite fascinating to meet other supernaturals again after so much time." Yuki looks fascinated and her transformation comes undone. "The moon is rising." She looks up and disappears from sight, reappearing on the highest point of the ship. She looks at the moon as her blood starts to boil.

Cedric followed her and appeared behind her as she began reaching for the moon. "It has been too long since you last saw the moon in its full form." He moved her hair to the side and kissed the nape of her neck. "How does it feel?"

"Marvelous, to be honest, I never thought that I would be able to see it again." Yuki sinks into his embrace while staring at the moon. "I missed the power I get from the moon."

"I am willing to bet that I could make this more fun." Cedric kisses up her neck and slides his hands down her body. "You will need to absorb a lot of power from the moon and the best way to do that is if you are n.a.k.e.d. You and I both know that is what you want. If you want me to go and observe the wolves while you soak up some power so that I don't become tempted by the one that makes my l.u.s.t burn out of control." He was slowly pulling up the skirt of the dress she was wearing.

"I-I…" Yuki's breath hitches as Cedric begins to pull her dress up.

"You what?" He whispered into her ear.

Yuki looked down below and saw that the group was now on the deck below. "Go help them. Claude might not be able to hold out and Lyla has been in wolf form a lot, but be quick and come back to me." She turned her head slightly and kissed his cheek.

Cedric made a deck chair appear next to them. "Soak up the moonlight and I will return to you." He leaves before giving into temptation and appears next to the group. "Sephira, I know it might be hard but listen to me as Claude will not be able to hold back his transformation long."

"Thank you, Yuki sent you… didn't she?" Claude looked up at Yuki and waved.

"Just transform you fool." Cedric points to the moon that was shining brightly overhead.

Lyla was in wolf form stretching already and hummed in happiness. She looked at Adam before walking to his side and rubbing her snout on his leg.

"Fine, but so help me goddess if something happens I will have your hide." Claude transforms with ease and lays on the ground sulking.

Cedric walked over to Sephira and started to recite the pain relief spell and touched her shoulder. "It will be easier if you get down on your hands and knees."

Sephira had watched Claude transform and thought that it was a beautiful thing. She did as Cedric instructed and she started to feel something strange and she tried to fight it.

"Good, let the odd sensations take over, and don't fight it as Yuki said." Cedric watched as she was halfway there. "Good, you are almost there." After about ten more minutes the change was complete. "You did well. Relax for a short while."

Claude got up and rubbed himself against Sephira. ~My mate, you look beautiful as a wolf.~ He looked over at Lyla and growled.

Lyla jumped before she rolled over and exposed her neck to him. ~I will submit, you are the alpha wolf here.~

Claude sat down and howled at the moon. ~Welcome to the pack, Lyla~

Sephira slowly got up to her paws and sat down and howled with them. ~This is invigorating. I finally feel like I belong somewhere. Thank you, Claude, Lyla, Yuki, and Cedric.~

Adam watched as the wolves became a pack and saw the bonds flow between them and nodded his head and Claude as if understanding. "I know that it is important."

Naomi watched Yuki and Cedric waiting to see if she might be able to see something that had not happened in many years.

Cedric went up to Yuki and his transformation came undone with each step that he took towards Yuki. First, his eyes went ebony black with swirls of gold, his horns came out on the top of his head, then his clothes changed into a vest that had only two lower buttons, and his pants were black slacks. His hair grew a little longer and he stood next to Yuki holding out his hand to her.

Yuki looked up at him before she could think about anything her own transformation was broken. Her silver hair was down her back, her eyes swirling with silver and blood red slightly glowing, her clothes became blood red on the bodice with some black ribbons, the skirt came to her mid-t.h.i.g.hs and was black and fluffy like a tutu, where the top and bottoms met there was a black lace ribbon with a black rose on the right side of her body, her upper c.h.e.s.t had no straps but instead there was a black fabric webbing that connected to the choker that also was accented with a black rose, her back was exposed except for the black webbing, on her legs were black knee-high leotards and on her feet was a pair of blood-red high heels that had laces that went over the knee-high socks. She got up and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Cedric leaned down and started to kiss her deeply. "You look simply delectable. It has been a while since I saw your true form but now that I have you can not blame me for wanting to take you here and now."

"Stop talking and give it to me then." Yuki undid the buttons on his vest and ran her hands up his c.h.e.s.t until she reached his shoulders and began to push it off his shoulders. She kissed his neck feeling his breath hitch and his body shudder from what they might start doing.
