Welcome back, my lovely reader!

How are you liking things so far, my lovely? Well, it's been a while since our bunny had the lead, so why don't we have some story time with Alice this go around?

Our succubunny is about to have an interesting twist in her life. Let's see how she handles it when some of her past catches up with her.

Let's jump right in!

Episode 2:

Alice: I never forgot about you

Every now and again, I'll get the urge to go out. The succubus in me needs that spiritual energy and I get it in spades from all my lovers. Celestial, lycanthrope, vampire, and even fae. The hunger doesn't discriminate when it comes to that, so it's rare I need to bother going out into the mundane world seeking it. That being said, mundane energy, well... it's like candy, it's really tasty but it's dangerous to have too much, lest you cause problems.

All the same, I wanted to go hunting since it had been a hot minute, so I dressed in something sexy and club-worthy. I chose a snug skirt that came just to my knees with a showy pink top that clung to my chest, showing the curves off, accented with jewelry and a small jacket since it was a little chilly. Of course, I didn't care about the cold but had to keep appearance up.

I took the little sports car into the city, deciding I'd try my luck at some of the local clubs. The scene doesn't really change much when you get down to it. The music and fashion might change, but mundane courting stays the same. It's a jungle of culture and showboating to try for the most prized game. Some will come with friends to just hang out, but most stable people find other ways to spend their time, leaving the scene for the single's looking to hunt.

Of course, the rules didn't apply to me. I gave a knowing grin as I sauntered in, having cut off the whole line and the bouncer letting me pass as if I were royalty, the others in the line looking lucky to have even seen me.

Funny enough, I didn't find much that caught my eye though. The females were all fake and the males were all trying too hard, none of them would be any fun when it got down to it. After about half an hour, I decided it was time to move on. Perhaps I'd look to find a quieter bar to hunt in. Mayhaps find an older mundane that was depressed and could use a little spark.

A faint drizzle had picked up while I was in the club, and my heeled boots clopped against the parking lot as I made my way to my waiting car. Of course, I had felt the presence the moment I stepped out of the club so it was no surprise when I found a rather large male figure next to my sports car.

He was dressed in dark cargo pants and vest, it was clear there was ballistics armor plates under it and he made no attempt to hide the large-caliber handgun at his side. A splash of crimson showed on the side of his coat, a cross that had the base shaped like a sword.

"You've picked a poor night to hunt, my dear," The large wolf snarled the words as he looked down upon me. I showed him a calm smile as I felt myself encircled. I didn't bother looking around but I easily felt the presence of eight more, for a total of nine.

"The crimson shepherds, I'll confess, I thought your little organization was dead." I didn't bother hiding the large sharp teeth as I spoke, offering the wolf an amused smile, hearing a few hammers lock into place on some guns around me.

The wolf held one hand out towards me. "Abomination, you are an affront to all things natural and-"

"I'm going to cut you off there, handsome. Look, I'll level with you, there could be a hundred of you right now, it wouldn't matter. You're all so out of your league, so please, just skitter back into the shadows, okay? I don't want to accidentally hurt one of you," I sighed the words, shifting to put my hands on my hips.

I watched his eyes flick in acknowledgment to one of his companions, rolling my own as I saw where this was going. I prepared to pull the trick my lover did and just suppress the whole area's will, but then my ears perked as I heard another voice call out.

"Leave the vampire be." The words came out deep and full of confidence as another figure stepped forward, having climbed out of a rugged pickup truck that looked like it had seen its fair share of adventures.

My brow lifted at this new male that strode forward, a fellow rabbit, garbed in a similar outfit I might find myself in when going to fight. Durable thick jeans and a ballistics jacket, with heavy combat boots. He held a shortsword in his grip similar to the style my lover, Lorelai sported and I keenly could feel it was blessed divine silver, but he was clearly mundane.

"This is none of your concern, turn and quit this place, Shield." Another one of the shepherds called out behind me.

"Their lot has not been a threat for several years, let her be, or you answer to me." The rabbit narrowed his eyes as I looked him over, appreciating this knight in shining armor as it were, a rare treat I didn't get very often. I was happy to play the role of the damsel.

"My! Quite the brave knight you are, yes, please protect me, dashing bunny," I huffed out with an eager grin, my eyes clearly shifting to red.

"Enough of this, kill him! Kill them both!" The wolf snarled the words as my eyes widened, I didn't expect things to escalate that quickly.

Several guns went off as the brown-eared rabbit snarled and I watched the bullets slow in real-time as he focused, the projectiles just losing their momentum before dropping to the parking lot.

"Shit! He's a mage!" One of them spat out as they drew a combat knife and lunged. I blinked a few times as I watched the rabbit parry the strike, bringing the flat of his blade against the shepherd's skull, sending them unconscious to the ground.

I gave an appreciative huff even as one of the hunters lunged upon me from behind with a sword drawn. I casually sidestepped the attack, it was painfully slow as all of this was, but I could appreciate the chivalry all the same. I gingerly pushed my palm to the hunter's cheek as they were lunging, their eyes rolling up before they toppled to the ground. It seems I got to have a small meal tonight after all, though they didn't get any lewd daydreams from me.

"Bastard!" The wolf had drawn his own sword as he bore down on the rabbit, their size difference stark. I gave a smile as I saw the other seven were already unconscious, the rabbit having handedly brought them all to heel.

"Give it a rest, they're not a threat and if you keep this up, they'll kill your whole organization." The rabbit snarled the words before deftly disarming the wolf, then lunging in and sending a well-placed fist into his midsection. The large male gave a bark as he just doubled over and fell to the ground.

My teeth showed in a wide grin as I clapped my hands. "Bravo, my brave knight... that was magnificent."

"You didn't kill that one, did you?" He spoke out as he sheathed his shortsword and took stock of the area. I felt a ward I recognized go down, a sound suppression one that would have muffled the gunfire.

"I didn't, just took a few sips of their life force and put them to sleep," I hummed the words then showed a grin. "More to the point, come a little closer and let me get a look at my savi-" My words caught in my throat as he stepped into the light above my parking space.

He had one hardened brown eye showing with a large scar raked across the left side of his other eye and cheek, that one simply an off-white. I felt awash with nostalgia as I stared upon him and I saw his eyes suddenly widen, the hardness in the good one fading away instantly as he looked upon me. My own eyes shifted back to blue as I quickly looked him over, trying to process why he was familiar, then I looked and saw a lone sapphire hoop earring in one of his large brown ears.

"It... cannot be..." He muttered out quietly.

I shook my head and tried to push my brain back into working order. "S- Sam? Is that... you?"

His eyes seemed to shudder in their sockets for a moment as he processed me calling out to him, then refocused. His ginger hair was a little darker, with more brown in it, even a little graying at the sideburns. That stood to reason, it had been over a decade since that night, though it all seemed far too soon for me, I suppose that's the price you pay for this. When your body doesn't age, you kind of lose track of time.

"Alice..." He spoke my name as if he were muttering the name of a sacred being. Though I suppose given everything, he'd not be too far off that mark these days.

"Okay... uh... first off... that was really cool, when did you become a mage, Sam?" I put a hand on my hip.

He pursed his lips before looking around at the group of downed shepherds. "Uh... hang on, let me wrap things up, then we'll talk." He focused and I felt some magic build before a gate pushed into existence and a few more figures stepped forth, wearing similar non-descript combat gear. They proceeded to collect the downed hunters and pull them into the gate.

"They'll just get a little education and be released, don't worry about them. Anyway, come on, let's go and I'll catch you up." Sam nodded as he started moving to the truck he came out of.

I gave an excited grin to his back and quickly moved to climb up into the banged-up truck. The inside smelled of gunpowder, worn leather and him. Watching him climb in I couldn't help but flick my ears. "Look at you... just... wow!"

"Yeah... look at me, huh?" He showed me a small smile as he turned the truck over, the window wipers starting up as he pulled out of the lot. "It's been what... ten years?"

"Hmm... yeah about there and some change. You look great, you were so badass just now!" I cooed out as I looked him over while he drove.

"You look the same, but I guess that's par for the course, huh, Alice?" He cut his brown eye to me but then refocused on the road.

"Okay, Sam. What's going on? How do you know what I am? How do you know my kind even exists?" I sighed and fixed him with a business-like gaze.

He drove for a bit, seeming to choose his words before speaking out. "After that night with you, things changed inside me. I don't mean with confidence from a virgin getting his card punched either."

"I hope I did at least help with that confidence though?" I lifted my ears hopefully.

"Oh absolutely! I never stopped thinking about you, Alice." Sam gave me a nod and I felt my cheeks darken, looking at the earring in his ear.

"I can see that... it's a bit weathered, but you kept it all these years... that... really makes me wet!" I gave him a ravenous grin.

He gave a laugh at that and blushed as he smiled at me. "You're a succubus, Alice, wouldn't a stiff breeze make you wet?" He quipped back at me and I pouted at the teasing.

"That is really mean, Sam! True, but mean! It's not my fault I'm wired to be horny!" I showed him a grin and blushed. "Though you jumping in to save me just destroyed my panties, so... yeah... so finish answering my question?"

"After that night with you, I started... Well, I started feeling things. I'd get intimate with someone and they'd be extremely winded when we were done, however, I'd be ready to go for a run." He cocked a brow as I frowned at that, then continued, "Also... I was able to uh... sense, when something supernatural was around, be it, angels or vampires."

"Wait- A-Are you saying I-"

"Yeah, after fumbling with it for a few years, a mage found me. I got fully brought into the fold then. I learned about what had happened, though they couldn't explain why I had been 'touched' as I had, they said a succubus shouldn't have left such an impact upon me."

"Oh, gods... Sam... I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to ruin your life!" I felt my vision getting blurry as I sniffled, feeling like I'd trashed his chances at just living a normal existence.

Sam blinked at me a few times then gave a shrug. "It's not been bad. Relax, Alice... I'd rather live a fun and exciting life. If fighting off the cultist hunters gets me killed early, well, at least it wasn't boring and I get to protect your people, so it's a bonus."

I pursed my lips and shook my head. "Sam, that doesn't make sense. Didn't you want like... a wife and kids, the pet in the yard kind of thing?"

"Didn't you?" He fired back, cocking a brow. "I was in a haze, but I remember your concerns, your panic. You were new, you hadn't been turned long when you were with me."

"I- I thought I did, but I guess once I got into my new life, I just..." I trailed off, seeing where he was going with this. Val had assured me he wouldn't remember details, but Val didn't realize I was a chimera at the time either.

A silence settled between us for a few minutes before I huffed out. "So... where are we going?"

"Nowhere, I'm just driving to get away from that area until the mages sweep it for more hunter surveillance." Sam shrugged a shoulder, then I saw him hesitate before looking over at me. "You wanna-"

"Fuck? Yes, I'd love to!" I snarled out, my eyes red as I looked him over like a piece of meat.

Sam gulped at that and frowned. "Ah... I was going to say, get a drink... b-but... uh... I guess, your place or mine?" He gave a smile at me and I saw his fluff of tail flick a little against the seat of the truck.

"Mind a drive? I'll say mine... I want you to meet some of my family. After we get it out of our systems of course." I hum out eagerly as I move right up to the other rabbit, snuggling up to him.

Sam huffed out as I got closer but then just casually put an arm around me, pulling me closer. "Yeah... just lead the way, Alice."

--*--

Of course, my family would know when an unknown vehicle was approaching, there was a nice long distance to the front of the manor and the road had security cameras on them, with a sensor that fired off to let us know when a vehicle was approaching. So it was no surprise when Sam pulled up to the front, that my master and Katrina were both present.

Sam frowned as he blinked out the window, seeing the two of them. "Uh... okay, Alice, was this a good idea? That cat-vampire is clearly training guns on me and that fox is... on fire?" He squinted as he saw the faint white flames flickering near Elias's ankles, the fox in a fairly relaxed posture with his hands in his suit jacket, but it was clear he was at the ready.

"Don't you worry about them! It'll be fine, my bunny!" I cooed out as I climbed out of the truck, trotting to the drivers side and gripping his hand, pulling him with me.

"Y-your bunny?" Sam stammered out, looking back at his truck that was still idling.

"Relax, one of the servants will park it!" I gave him an eager grin, my large teeth showing, "Uh huh... mine."

"Alice... who's your friend?" Katrina quirked a brow as she slowly put her guns away.

I gave them both a playful grin. "Katrina, Master, this is Sam, erm that's probably short for uh...-"

The brown rabbit offered a bow, well as polite as he could with me clutching his hand. "Samuel. It's a pleasure to meet you Marquis Elias of house Blackpaw and... Marquess... wait, you're name is Katrina, you're a Countess, correct?"

Katrina and Elias shared a look before my master spoke out, "Yes, nice to meet you, Samuel. You'll excuse me if I'm a little concerned you know of us and yet we know not of you."

"Sam saved me from a group of hunters tonight, we've a bit of history, he was my first mundane!" I hummed out proudly as I clung to the brown-eared bunny.

Katrina put a hand to her hip, clicking her tongue as she spoke, "Wait... he... saved YOU from hunters, Alice? I find that hard to-" The quick glare and slight head shake I offered got the cat to clue in and snap her jaws shut.

Elias seemed to grasp the situation quickly as well, offering a formal bow. "Then it appears we are in your debt. Thank you for coming to the defense of my countess, Samuel."

"Your Countess?" The rabbit quirked a brow, looking cautious. I didn't blame him, Elias was an Archvampire, he'd be very hesitant of overstepping things.

"Master, love, uh... can we catch up with the meet and greet later? I'm pretty damn horny right now!" I gave them both a pout and clung to Sam's arm. Of course, I mostly made the display to ease his mind and show this wasn't going to be some ego match.

Katrina and Elias both showed their sharp teeth in amusement before my cat gave a nod. "Alright love, go have your fun. We'll make sure there's some food appropriate for a mundane set out for dinner."

"One thing though... I sense magical talent in you, rabbit. You're welcome here with my hospitium, but I'll have at least a slight font of knowledge on who or what you're working with." Elias made it clear he'd not let me just waltz a stranger in without some knowledge of him.

Samuel gave my master a dutiful nod. "Of course, Lord Blackpaw. I'm part of a small elite magi-strike force known as Sacred Shield."

"Ah... I've heard of your lot, hunters of hunters as it were. Magically gifted or touched mundane that seek to steer hunters from their course against the mostly passive supernatural community." Katrina hummed out, seeming satisfied with the answer.

"Indeed... Well, Samuel, you're the first mundane we've hosted in some time, but I'll not keep you further, please enjoy our hospitality." Elias spoke the words as he bowed again.

I gave an impatient huff and pulled him right along, the two of them offering him an amused grin, showing their large sets of fangs. Samuel shook it off soon enough and was walking with me. "Uh... they seem nice?"

"They are! They're wonderful and I love them! I'll introduce you to everyone, but later!" I huffed out as I led him upstairs and right into a guest chamber.

He surprised me, as when the door shut I felt him grip my shoulder and gently shove me up against it. My eyes widened as his lips pushed to my own and I moaned in approval, throwing my arms around the first rabbit I'd ever had. We kissed as if we were long-lost lovers reunited, our tongues rolling and curiously flicking at one another.

"Sam! I- I didn't expect such bravado!" I huffed out, cooing as I felt him start to kiss down my throat, his hands roaming my body, sliding the jacket I wore off.

"Alice... I've been with others, but my body and soul never forgot you... You set an impossible bar that night for any to come." He sighed the words along my throat, kissing and tasting at my flesh. Of course, I was willing my heart to pound, making my body warm to the touch for this dashing bunny.

"My brave knight..." I sighed and tangled my fingers into his reddish-brown locks, giving him soft pleased moans as he nibbled and sucked at my throat, marking my flesh with little bites. I wouldn't tell him it was all a dream that night, but what was to come now would most certainly be real for him.

He peeled my snug top right off, my blonde hair spilling out behind me as my breasts bounced into view. Samuel shuddered and took a knee as I gave a little gasp, feeling him take my left teat right into his maw, sucking eagerly upon me.

"Ha... I can smell your eagerness, Sam... how long has it been for you?" I moaned the words down into his ears while rubbing them, feeling his tongue skillfully circle and tease at my hard nipple in his maw.

"A couple of years, I don't seek it out very often." He huffed the words after pulling from my breast, kissing over to the other before beginning to suckle upon my other peak, his hands circling along my skirt, peeling it down.

"My my... such a length of time... why is that, my alpha bunny?" I cooed into his ear, the long-ago nickname I'd given him during our first time together. I felt him shudder in response to it before he parted his maw from my breast, blinking into my red eyes as he rose to his feet once more.

"As I said... a bar set that a normal girl could never overcome. Sex was fun, but I always had you to compare it to." He spoke the words calmly as he took my paw and started leading me to the large bed.

I giggled at that and hummed proudly. "I apologize for that, but I won't lie. You're stroking my ego something fierce this night, my alpha bunny... my Samuel..." I sighed the words as my hands started returning the favor while I stood there in just my panties, my boots having been kicked off while we moved to the bed.

With well-practiced movements, I pulled free his heavy ballistics jacket and shirt, even unstrapping some additional armored padding before his chest came into full view. As a younger rabbit, he only had a little definition, but now he had strong well developed muscles. They weren't the type made from working out constantly, no this was a warrior's body now. I ran my fingertips over some of the deeper scars as I cooed out, "Your body has so many stories to tell, Sam... Will you regale me with some of them later?"

"Anything for you, Alice." He gripped my hand that was on his chest, bringing it up and giving it soft kisses. My heart leaped at the gesture and I bit my lower lip, shivering at this noble bunny-knight before me.

"You... are so fucking hot!" I hissed out and shoved him right down on the bed, the other bunny giving a soft gasp as he landed with a bounce. I was already on my knees, snarling with hunger, my eyes smoldering red as I unbuckled his heavy jeans.

"A-Alice... gods, I have no words... just, to be with you again, this is, ngh!" His teeth clenched as I had tugged his pants open, withdrawing that eager length while he had tried to speak. I didn't waste any time and pushed my mouth right over the tip. My ears lazily wobbled as I heard him groan out, then felt his hand rest atop my head while I started suckling, tasting his heady musk as precum dribbled along my tongue.

"Gods... to be with you again like this..." He hissed out, both his hands tangling into my blonde locks, raking through them as I looked up at him with my red eyes, flicking my tail as my head moved up and down, feeling my bunny throb eagerly in my mouth while my hands finished removing his jeans.

I brought my head up, parting my maw as I let him pop out, my tongue lolled, saliva rolling down his length as I huffed out and slowly rose to my feet. "Go sit against the headboard..." I panted the words, licking my lips as I reached down and peeled my panties free, holding them up and showing the other rabbit the soaked-through fabric.

"Guess you weren't lying about me getting you wet," Sam gave me a surprisingly childish grin as he leaned against the pillows on the headboard and I saw his length twitch and throb in anticipation.

"Uhuh... I'll show you how wet it is inside me too..." I climbed onto the bed, both of us fully bared for one another, this time in the real flesh of our bodies, not the dream world. I padded over to him on my hands and knees before moving over his lap. My arms moved around his neck as I drew him into another heated kiss, my backside grinding and pushing back against his length, teasing it against my slick petals.

Samuel moaned against my lips, returning my eager kisses, his tongue flicking with mine, then I shuddered as he broke free and did something that made my heart leap into my throat. The rabbit met my eyes, a look of adoration and love in them before he simply closed his brown eye and bared his throat for me.

I gave a little gasp at the display, but I didn't even think as I lunged in and pierced his flesh with my fangs. His fingers dug hard into my rear as his hot blood rushed into my mouth. I started drinking from him, my first hunt, the rabbit I nearly killed in my eagerness, but here he was in my arms, safe and offering himself to me fully.

My fingers tangled into his soft brown-red hair, gripping a fistful as I drank deeply of him, of this knight rabbit, my rabbit. The throes of it all gave my hunger the window to kick up a fuss, making the token demands for all of it, but I was older and stronger now. I took a few more sips, then pulled free and dragged my bloody tongue over his wound, healing it.

Samuel looked unfocused for a moment, but I could see the years of his training come to bear as he shook the euphoria off surprisingly quickly, then offered me a loving smile, leaning in to lap a little blood from my lips. I shuddered at the whole display and offered him a wide grin, my teeth still tinted red. "Oh gods... oh gods, Sam! Ngh... I think I might be in love!"

"L-Love?!" He huffed out in shock even as I turned around and gripped his knees. I gave him another bloody grin as I pushed back against that throbbing bunny-cock, working my hips, feeling it rub and tease at my petals as my tongue lolled out.

"Hum... maaaaybe..." I cooed and raised my hips, letting him get a good look at my backside, his hands gliding over it, my fluffy white tail hiked high as I positioned his head right to my entrance, then made sure to take it nice and slow as he watched me lower myself, taking his tip inside, every single inch of the rest of his length following.

Samuel moaned out as I took him inside, feeling my walls part to allow him inside me for the first time physically. I slumped back against his chest as I hit his lap, feeling every inch of his length buried in me, cooing out as his hands moved up to rub at my breasts while I clenched at him.

"Mm! ... maybe so... will you say you love me, now that you are buried to the hilt in the temptress you've long for, my alpha bunny?" I moved a hand up to rub along his cheek, panting against his throat while pushing into his chest.

"Of course, I will, Alice... I loved you at first sight. You've haunted my dreams since that first night with you," He eagerly confessed for me, my heart pounding and the hunger in me giddy, simply savoring the taste of his intense love.

I sighed out blissfully and licked my lips, my hips grinding slowly, savoring his body, feeling his head pushing to my core. His own hips worked with me, but just as slowly, his own needs to make this moment last as desperate as my own.

"Gods... then I'll return the words, my bunny knight... but you must understand if I do... well..." I hum and gave in, crushing him as he gives a soft gasp into my ears, my honey slicking his length as I lean close, pushing against his cheek, kissing it a few times. "Ha... if I reciprocate those feelings... then you are mine, my alpha bunny..."

His hands flexed against my breasts, squeezing them somewhat roughly as he panted and nodded his head, moaning out as he kept gently pumping up into me. I had spoken of love and possession many, many times in the dreams of those I'd been with, but this was no dream. My first bunny was back in my arms, and the succubus in me wanted him, I was happy to oblige her.

"If that is the ... ngh... tithe for your love, then so be it, Alice." He snarled the words into my ears as I hummed happily, licking my lips and shivering, feeling the surge of energy that came with it. I could taste his love, like uncorking a wine that I had put aside to age over a decade ago. This was not my intent, but I'd happily reap what I inadvertently sowed that night.

"Ha! Then you are mine, Samuel..." I moaned the words, grinding back against him, huffing and panting with each deep stroke he made inside me. "I will love you, but I will keep you... I hope you're not the jealous type, though! It's an exclusive club, but it's a club with a few members!" I giggled then moaned out, feeling myself crest again as he shivered and gave his own groan from my clenching walls.

"Anything for you, Alice!" He shuddered as he professed the words and I moaned out from the sheer energy that came with them. I was drinking heavily of his emotions and feeling drunk from how pure they were.

"Yes! Yeeeesss... Oh, my alpha bunny... ngh! Your love for me is delicious... I'll savor you, I'll love you! Ha... but I can feel you're there, so let us conclude our confessions proper!" I snarled out and shoved my hips down, showing him a wide proud grin as every inch plunged deep.

Samuel lolled his tongue slightly and hugged me hard to his chest, his nails digging into my breasts as I gave a happy little gasp when he erupted deep inside me. He moaned out and I watched his eye roll up. I hummed and licked my lips, feeling his energy and love for me surge in, basking in it while he filled me.

He gave me every last drop and I could taste his love for me, my walls milking him for everything before he shuddered and collapsed back into the pillows. My tongue was lolled as I panted as well, relishing in his pure adoration, shivering as I forced myself to close off the connection before I hurt him.

A few moments later I was snuggled up to his chest, a pleased satisfied sigh coming from my throat, as I nuzzled him. "Ha... do you feel better, my rabbit? My love?"

"I do... I love you... gods, I've loved you for years, ever since that night..." He panted the words and I hummed out happily, tail flicking as I clung a little closer.

"Then you have me my knight, but rest assured... your life will become exceedingly complicated from here on out..." I kissed his chest a few times before settling upon him.

"I welcome it... ngh... I think... I should rest a little..." He panted the words and I nodded against his chest.

"Yes, sleep my alpha bunny... sleep and know, I'll be here this time when you wake, no notes or tokens, just me in your arms." I puffed the words into his ear as he drifted off, sighing proudly as I clung to this rabbit that was now mine, the succubus in me giddy at her new prize, but I myself equally thrilled to have him.

--*--

Later that evening Samuel found himself at the table in our dining hall with me next to him. Katrina and my master were, of course, present. However, Sarnai was there, along with Alex and Gloria.

"I'm sure you have a myriad of questions, Samuel, but for now, please relax and enjoy the meal," Elias spoke out at the head of the table next to Sarnai.

I watched Samuel quickly process things, making mental notes as he looked about the table, seeing I and the other vampires present simply had wineglasses of crimson before us, while he and Gloria clearly had food.

"Thank you again for allowing me into your home, and uhm... sharing, your countess?" Samuel spoke the words awkwardly as if unsure where I stood with Elias.

Both the foxes present gave a laugh at that as Sarnai addressed him, "Please, Samuel. Alice is very much her own rabbit, we wouldn't dream of restraining her love, though we know she would do so if we requested it."

I hummed proudly at that as I sipped my blood, then perked an ear as Elias gave an angry snarl, "However... make no mistake if you hurt her-"

"Master! Sam isn't going to hurt me, relax!" I sighed and rolled my eyes.

"So, you're a mage? What circle are you with?" Katrina quirked a brow. It stood to reason she'd ask that, since she was the house mage.

Samuel gave my lover a nod. "I'm technically not with any circle, Countess Katrina. Sacred Shield is an independent group that works with all circles. However, I received my initial tutelage from the circle of the mage that found me, which was Circle Rhinestone"

"Ah, so to the north in the colder regions. What brought you back here?" She tilted her head curiously as she sipped on her own drink.

Samuel frowned and looked down at his plate, suddenly looking very small. Katrina frowned and cleared her throat. "Rest assured, Knight. If it is a personal matter, I'll not drag it out of you."

"No! It's fine!" The rabbit perked his ears and huffed out, "I came back to this region about five years ago because... it's where I found Alice."

Katrina blinked at that and I hummed out happily as I pushed against his shoulder. "Oh ho! Do you mean to tell me... you were looking for me, Sam?"

"Y-Yeah I asked to be stationed here in this region, hoping I'd stumble upon you eventually." He gave a nod to me as my hand snaked over to grip his under the table, giving him a look that said I was going to be wearing him out again as soon as this dinner was finished.

"Why didn't you simply request information from the circle?" Alex spoke out curiously, lifting his own large brown ears.

"I mean... I was a junior member that only received basic training to fight with, I'm not a full member. The instructors I had, were as high as my connections went. I doubt they would have bothered the Archmage over some random junior student looking for a vampire."

"That's a fair point." The wolf gave him a smile and I acknowledged the respect given in the look.

"Well, you found her, so it looks like your plan bore fruit." Sarnai gave him a smug grin, rolling her blood about in her wineglass.

"He did, and now he's mine!" I huffed out proudly and poked my nose up, Samuel giving me a small smile, seeing it wasn't all just pillow talk.

"Sister, you've already claimed him with your love? That is so sweet!" Gloria barked out, showing a wide grin at me. "Congratulations, Samuel! Alice fiercely cherishes what she loves!"

"Not as fierce as you, my angel," I hummed out and winked at the retriever, the angel huffing proudly and giving me those lovestruck eyes.

"So... all of you are with..." Samuel jerked his head towards me, letting the statement hang in the air.

"Yes," Elias spoke out pointedly. "We are all with Alice, we all have history and speaking of history... Alice, I trust your judgment, but let's keep some of the recent events on the back burner until Samuel has gotten more familiar with the family. It is not a matter of trust, so much as... I do not wish him overwhelmed, understand?"

I hummed out and squeezed Samuel's hand. "Of course, Master. I'll fill him in as we go along."

"Samuel, your life is going to get very complex by being part of Alice's life and by proxy, this family. Though it sounds like you already lived a fairly complicated one." Sarnai sipped her drink as she mused the words.

"Yes, but if I can have Alice in my life, it's worth it, no matter how short or hectic that life may be!" He poked his nose up and Alex whistled in appreciation.

"Damn...You've hooked a dutiful one this time, Alice!" Alex barked out with a grin.

"So it would seem! Guess I'm just a lucky girl." I leaned up and gave the rabbit a kiss, puffing close to his ears, "I'll take care of my new bunny though, rest assured of that."

--*--

A few hours later we found ourselves walking the gardens together, my rabbit with his arm linked to my own. "I'll admit, you've taken to all of this very well, my love."

His brown ears lifted as he gave me a cool smile. "Alice, I've been mulling on what I'd do if I found you again for over a decade. That steels a man's soul to a certain degree, especially once I started realizing how small the mundane perception of the world was."

"Had I known... Well, I'm just happy to have you here now." My tail flicked as I pulled closer to him, humming aloud.

"It makes me happy you remembered me, Alice." He pulled me closer as I sighed. Through all the drama and world-saving, I'd been really missing some casual romance in my life.

"Of course I did, you were special to me, and still are obviously." I gave a huff, then straightened up a little. "So c'mon, any questions? Lay them on me!"

"What have you been up to the last ten years or so?" He asked pointedly.

"Hmm... well that fine piece of foxy ass you saw at the table nearly killed me and everyone else that was present, but then we got her head screwed on right, so now she's my girlfriend. Well... actually she was banging everyone at the table too like me, well except you of course." Alice hummed, "Say... you want me to drag her in bed with us later?"

Samuel frowned and shook his head. "Whoa uh... maybe later? I don't even know her, and right now I'm happy with just you, Alice."

"Gosh... you keep talking like that, ngh... I'm gonna drag you down right here in the grass!" I huffed out and gave him a hungry grin.

He grinned at that and took my hands, meeting my eyes. "I'd enjoy that, but for now... well, why did things change in me after you?"

I frowned at him and gave a nod. "Right to the heart of it eh?"

"The look in your eyes says you have the answer." He gave me a nod. "I'm not upset, Alice, but I would like that answer at least."

Pulling from his grip I sighed and folded my arms. "Uh... we'd be here all night and day if I explained it all in detail, can I offer you the short version for now?"

"Sure, you can fill me in on the rest as we go." He offered me a gentle smile and I couldn't help but flick my tail as I looked into his soft brown eye.

I took a deep breath and gave a nod. "Okay, I'm what they call a chimera. I'm basically uh... a big clusterfuck of vampire, demon, and angel! Whenever I get intimate with someone, I kind of share power and stuff with them... I guess that includes mundane too-"

--*--

"And then I brought him up to speed!" Alice hummed happily while lounging on the sofa on her back, head resting in the aforementioned rabbit's lap. Samuel still looked a little awkward at the intimate details being told so casually to the whole room.

"What an interesting development. I was a little shocked to see you tonight for this get-together." I gave a nod at the story. "It makes me happy to see my sister's dedication to not killing paid her back."

"It's quite a lovely thing, I have to admit." Ryder held me close as I pushed into his chest with a smile.

"I still find it hard to believe I sit here in the room with a Paladin and the Empress of the entire vampire council," Samuel spoke out awkwardly as his hand lazily stroked Alice's ears and hair.

"Your girl keeps major company, Sam, and now so do you, so you better step up your game!" Alice gave him a playful grin, then she blinked and frowned at your obvious question.

Samuel's brown ears folded as he shook his head before speaking out, "Ah... I've not considered that... I suppose it stands to reason you would ask, given you're the newest member of their family."

"Samuel, I'd recommend you spend some extended time with our family, listen to their tales, get up to speed on what has recently transpired. Then and only then, would I advise you to consider that course of action."

"Or almost be brutally murdered by a vengeful nature goddess like I did!" Alex barked out a laugh as Sarnai gave him a fussy glare.

"Let's not have poor Samuel rely on some life or death situation to make his decision, alright Alex?" The vixen huffed out and poked her nose up.

"Sorry love..." The wolf snarled and pulled Sarnai to his chest, the fox giving a fussy huff but not resisting, pushing up close to the wolf since her husband wasn't part of the chat tonight.

"Vengeful nature goddess?" Samuel tilted his head curiously.

"Just more to catch you up on, love!" Alice perked her ears as she rose up to look upon me. I frowned at the look in her eyes, knowing where her brain had gone.

"Lorelai! Did you ever make it with Trilly? Are you going to give us the details?" She cooed out and wiggled her hips.

"I'm sorry Alice, but I simply refuse to gossip about Triallia without her being present, I'd not disrespect her like that!" I poked my nose up and gave a little huff, avoiding the topic.

"Oh, well I can respect that! Good news too, I asked and she's joining us next week! Maybe you two could... ahem, tell the story together?" she gave me a playful grin, seeing she had already outmaneuvered me as I gave her a fussy glare.

"You, are a sneaky rabbit, Alice!" I gave a little glare as I bleated out with a huff.

"Yes, but I'm your rabbit, love." She gave a wink and moved her forefingers and thumbs together to form a heart, poor Samuel just looking confused.
