A Trip Through Time

"I'd just rather not have to deal with dirty motel rooms and poor service." Charles replied lightly as he smirked some at her teasing, before nodding hearing what she said, chuckling at her sense of humour. "Very well, then, Ally." He murmured smoothly as he placed his large hand against the expanse of her lower back, gently pushing her in the direction of the place he was renting for his stay here in Dark Haven. "Perhaps," He leaned down, his lips brushing near the shell of her ear, "you can give me a good reason to stay?" He asked her lowly, taking in her heady scent once more as he closed his eyes for a moment and slowly leaned away. His gums were aching with something completely different to blood lust as something primal was trying to break out of him. He cut off his ability for his emotional empathy to try and at least alleviate the tensions that he was feeling within himself and those around him. His thumb gently rubbed against the dimple of her lower back through her shirt, needing to have some sort of physical contact with her. This was rather unusual for him; maybe it was because it had been so long since he had been in the company of a female vampire. Something was telling him it was more than that though, much more.

Charles could sense her distressed emotions as he gently soothed her, not wanting her to be uncomfortable with him. Another thing that was knew to him; caring how other felt as they were around him. He glanced down to her then as the wind picked up more, but wasn't affect as he knew she would not be. He moved though, grabbing his jacket and throwing it off of his shoulders and onto her own, wrapping it around her as he wrapped his arms around her as well, leading her through the gusting wind towards the small apartment he had rented. He guided her on up the stairs then before smiling hearing her as he nodded. "That I do, it's my ability. What about you?" He asked lightly as he opened the door leading into his apartment and gently pushed her in as well, following in behind her and closing and locking the door. "Go on and make yourself at home, Ally." He murmured, nodding towards the plush couch sitting before the grand fireplace.

Charles tilted his head slightly hearing her then, humming a bit in thought as she told him of her ability. "That's rather interesting, and helpful I imagine." He replied as he went over to her, gently taking the coats for her and tossing them over the other chair in the room. He winked at her playfully then after hearing she would convince him to stay. "Well, I guess you better get to convincing, Ally." He murmured lightly as he moved around her then to the cabinet, getting out some human blood he poured them each a wine glass full. He put the blood back, grabbing the glasses and taking them over to the couch, sitting down sideways so he faced her and holding the glass out for her to take. "It's fresh." He smirked some then as he waited for her to take the glass. He wondered if she drank human blood at all, and he figured this way he'd find out.

Charles tilted his head as he could tell she was feeling strained once the human blood was so close to her. It was obvious to him then that she truly stuck to a completely animal diet. That wouldn't do her much good if Julius were to every find her, but then again, with the wave of protectiveness he was feeling he'd not let Julius within a thousand mile radius of her if he could help it. He watched her set her glass to the side, before tilting his head some as she took his glass and set it to the side as well. He smirked hearing what she said, chuckling some when she forced him on his back. He could easily overpower her, especially since he drank human blood, but he allowed her to take control. He kissed her back as he slowly dragged the backs of his fingers along her cheek and down her neck, allowing his hand to cup the smooth column of skin once his hand rested there and brought her in closer. His other hand moved to her hip, squeezing it softly as he kissed her slowly, but deeply, savouring the feeling her plump lips moving with his own. She tasted divine.

Charles moaned softly into the kiss as his fingers gripping her hip slowly released it, trailing gently up her side and up into her silky hair, gripping it lightly with his fingers. She was intoxicating, and now he had a taste he knew he'd be forever addicted to her. He nipped lightly at her lower lip, attempting to take control of the kiss but she pulled away, leaving him wanting. "Tons of feelings," He murmured huskily as he smirked wickedly at her, "all of which are screaming at me to stay." He admitted before slowly sitting up, causing her to straddle his lap as his fingers lightly brushed her hair back from her face, his other hand remaining on her neck as his thumb gently caressed her jawline. He reached over one his fingers fell from her hair then, keeping eye contact as he grabbed his wine glass, taking a sip of the blood before offering the same glass to her. "I can tell you thirst, drink, Ally." He whispered softly as he watched her intently.

Charles tilted his head slightly then when she backed off completely, going from hot to cold in an instant in a sense as she did. He instantly missed the weight of her body in his lap, and the way her scent had surrounded him as he took another sip from his glass before setting it down. He smirked some hearing her question as he shrugged his shoulders slightly, shifting over towards her on the couch. "I'm a drifter, I...drifted here." He answered lowly as he shifted in closer, his fingers moving along her neck and down, before cupping the back of her head and pulling her in, kissing her slowly and deeply. He wondered how she would react with the taste of blood on his lips, would she deepen the kiss more, taste his mouth completely, or would she pull away as she had before when being offered the wine glass? What was more of an interest to him was finding out why she allowed herself to live off of such a meagre diet. Perhaps she couldn't control her blood lust? Perhaps she didn't know how to?

Charles moaned softly when she kissed him back, thinking he had won, that she had given in, only to sigh softly when she pulled away, turning her head from him. He moved his lips to her jaw and neck then, sucking and kissing the skin softly so she knew he wasn't going to reject her for turning away from him like that. He leaned back, tilting his head slightly then as he heard her, his brows furrowing some as he did. "For one thing don't be sorry." He told her firmly as he cupped her cheek, getting her to face him. "And for another thing, we aren't monsters. Humans eat animals, do they not? Hell, some humans eat other humans. What makes them any less monstrous than us?" He asked her as his thumb gently stroked her cheek. "Nothing as beautiful as you could ever be worthy of such a hideous word." He murmured as he leaned his forehead against her own. "You need only develop your control, Ally, feeding from humans does not mean killing them so long as the blood lust can be controlled." And Charles was a master of control, though Ally, he felt, might test his famous control.
