He'd never met his mother but he could only imagine that she wouldn't have wanted him to live like this. He rarely slept anymore. Sure, he was given all the comforts he might have needed but it still felt like prison. This must have been what it felt like to be put into an arranged marriage. He was true to his promise. He made every moment to remind her that he hated her, even his actions spoke differently. His knee still twinged, reminding him what disobedience meant. He'd never closer to death as he had in that office room weeks ago and he never wanted to experience it again. He'd taken to his vampire side even before he'd been born and he never wanted to remember what it felt like to be a human. Though he hated it, hated her and hated himself, he made himself do anything she asked. She'd moved him to her place of residence, seeming to find it was safer to have him in a place where she knew she could control him and he'd made himself quite comfortable. As long as she wasn't home, anyway. Music blaring in the background, Nykolae had himself stretched out on the couch, one arm resting behind his head while the other rested on his chest, right over where the scar from her heel marred his skin. Because of the weakened state in which the wound had been inflicted, he'd been unable to make it heal properly and was left with his first scar, a reminder of his new servitude. Though living here was much more comfortable than his place in Chicago, he couldn't help but find himself increasingly bored. He'd spent his boredom hunting down virgins to please himself but here, he was only given refrigerated. He wasn't permitted to touch anyone. Not even the staff that kept to his needs through out the day. Because of this, she was able to keep him beneath his normal strength level. Without fresh human blood, he was weak and tended to rest most of the day. She was trying to tame him and he was pissed off at how well it was working. Sooner or later, he was going to need to piss Kaia off just to get some sort of entertainment. -- Andrei Belkov

With a piece of paper in hand Andrei stopped in front of a 20 story building and looked up. This was it, the address he had for Kaia. He shoved the sheet of paper into his pocket and walked inside. Then he let out a sigh, of course Kaia would have vampires for guards. Now he couldn't just compel his way onto the top floor, he had to be more cunning than that. Of course, Andrei's version of cunning usually included snapped necks and stolen key cards and that was the case this time so as he hoped onto the elevator and went up to the pent house he had a smirk on his face.
He quickly assessed the penthouse, taking in a quick sniff of the air to determine who was around. Kaia's scent wasn't fresh. He decided he'd wait for his vampiric 'mother' to arrive. That's when he smelled it. Hybrid blood. "Someone is keeping pets." he said amused before he went to locate the source of the smell. He found it quickly too, the boy laying on the couch. His blood smelled weak, like his body was trying and failing to heal itself from the lack of blood in his system. "She knows how to keep her pets in line" he mused from the doorway, not bothering to get any closer. "What did you do to deserve it?" he asked with a low chuckle.

Unfortunately for him, Nykolae had smelled him as soon as he entered the apartment so if he had hoped to surprise him, he was going to be sorely disappointed. He opened his eyes, bright green against the pale pallor of his skin. He should have known he wouldn't be left to his own devices for too long. With someone as powerful as Kaia, it wasn't surprising she'd have random visitors. And apparently, he wasn't just some random visitor. He could smell Kaia on him and he had a feeling this vampire's allegiances were very much in Kaia's favor.
"Guess she couldn't resist my good looks." he said with a smirk. Even though he wasn't fully healed, it didn't stop him from returning to his cocky self. Mostly because he had a hunch that as long as Kaia claimed him, no one would dare touch him. He had no plans on making friends during his stay here, no matter what anyone said or did. "What's your excuse? Did she like how you kissed her ass?" Of course, he didn't understand his relationship with Kaia, which led to his inappropriate comment but personally, Nykolae didn't care. He just wanted to be left alone in his misery. His small ounce of comfort gone, he sighed and sat up, running a hand through his hair before he turned and glared at the vampire standing absently in the doorway. "Who the fuck are you and what do you want? Can't you see I'm busy?" The music in the background ceased the first song and took a few seconds to start up again, filling the suite with bass. No matter how loud the music was, this vampire's presence would ruin everything. Especially if he decided that he wanted a bite of him himself. Unfortunately for Nykolae, his fear of vampire men who overtake him and he wouldn't be able to fight back.

Andrei arched a brow high at the cocky hybrids remark about his looks. A deep chuckled elicited from him and he tried to regain his composure, "I've seen the men Kaia goes after and though I admit that you're good looking I don't think she's keeping you just for that pretty boy face of yours. Ambrosia... Sorry, Kaia is a former magi blood addict and it looks like hybrid is on the menu now. You poor fool." he grinned widely. He had no idea he was going to have so much fun when he came to Kaia's pent house but he could tell this hybrid would provide him with hours of entertainment.
"Oh, and for your information, she liked the way I killed dozens of men at sword point and then fucked her endlessly after she made me a vampire." He said offhandedly like it was a casual conversation topic. His warped sense of humor and reality was beginning to show as he stood there staring at Nyk. Suddenly the music began to get to him and he located the source but without moving from his spot he pulled out a pocket knife and threw it at the music player, effectively ending the annoyance. "I'm here to see 'mummy dearest' but oh how fortunate was I to find you here instead. I have a feeling you will provide much amusement. Though I suggest you start to relax, even if I had interest in playing with Kaia's new toy hybrid isn't my type. You smell too much like vampire for you to be enticing." he admitted as he leaned against the door way. His over-heightened sense of smell brought so many scents forward that he was rather particular about what kind of blood he was willing to drink and Nykolae was lucky that he was dealing with Andrei and not someone that was unable to control themselves.

Nykolae didn't flinch when the music was abruptly shut off. Instead, he just glared at the vampire, already disliking the man. "Right, so you're her bitch too?" he asked, his cocky smirk antagonizing. "Queen bitch seems like her men beneath her." He chuckled to himself and stood up from the couch, lifting his arms above his head as he stretched, bare stomach exposed as he did so, before he returned to a slouched position and approached the vampire. Adrenaline rushed through his veins, causing his heart to pump faster, reminding him, once again, of his vulnerability of being half human. "Surprised my "vampiric" smell turns you away. My veins are filled with Queenie's blood, after all. Your "mummy dearest" decided to have a heart and decided she liked me better alive than dead. It's a shame really." Now he was face to face with Andrei, his cocky smirk still on his face, hands shoved absently into his jeans pockets. "I don't suppose your idea of "fun" would be killing me, would it?" he asked, raising a brow as if to entice the vampire. It would be like karma he'd never get to see but allowing himself to picture Kaia ripping Andrei apart when she found his dead body on the floor of her pristine penthouse made him laugh. "Although, whatever else you had in mind might suffice. I'm bored and pissed off. Doing something destructive would probably ease these itchy feelings. Or are you too bitch whipped?" Politeness aside, Nykolae really didn't care who this vampire was or who he was to Kaia. At this point, anyone who allowed him to stay imprisoned here was on his shit list. Even if his words inspired the vampire to become destructive towards him, at least it would be something to pass the time.

Andrei furrowed his brow at the cocky little bastard, "Definitely not her bitch. And technically, every vampire or hybrid of the sorts is beneath her. You included before you even met her." he said with a simple shrug of his shoulders. He pulled out another pocket knife, this one longer and skinnier than the last and flipped it casually between his fingers. "See... If anyone here is really her bitch it's you. She didn't drain me of all my blood and keep me weak and frail like she does to you. She kept me fed and took care of me." he ended his conversation on that note, knowing he was nowhere in comparison to this pathetic hybrid.
For once he wasn't growling or standing up to the smug kid before him and he remained cool, calm, and collected, finding amusement in every worst that left his mouth. "You smelling like Kaia makes no difference to me. I have no desire to have a connection with other vampires with the exception of your new owner, my progeny, and my one time mate. Have vampire equivalent of a blood hounds nose and you'd understand. And quite frankly, I don't follow her commands, haven't in roughly five or six centuries now. Which is why this lovely little knife was almost two seconds away from finding your trachea. Then I realized that would leave a mess for me to clean up and I couldn't have that. I can however deliver a very swift punch to your rib cage that punctures your lung and allows me to watch you die ever so slowly with minimal clean up so I suggest you move out of my reach before I decide to make that a reality." his voice and expression grew darker with the threat of bodily harm. He thought about it for a moment, "I change my mind... I will punch you. Watch the life drain out of your eyes within an inch of death and then bring you back. I'd probably continue that until Kaia shows up to stop me."

He point of showing disappointment. He sighed rather dramatically and moved away from Andrei. If he wasn't in the mood to kill him, then Nykolae really had no other need to show interest in the vampire. Instead, he returned to the couch and laid out much like he had before, one arm under his head while the other rested on his stomach. "You know, for a vampire, you talk too much about killing. It's not about scaring your prey into fearing you with words, it's about the actual deed. I suggest, if you're going to talk big, then act big." He shrugged nonchalantly. "Just a thought..." Sure, he was probably digging his own grave but he was finding much amusement with this vampire. "So, in other words, you essentially own Queenie a life debt? Seeing as she took the time to turn you, feed you and protect you? I'd much rather be in shackles then own a life debt. At least I can plot my own demise without guilt."
Great, so not only was he dealing with a vampire, he was dealing with a vampire that had been turned directly by Kaia. He might as well have been her child. And to be trapped, alone, in the penthouse with him? Already, he felt his damned heart quicken, beating against his rib cage. He wished it would just cease, already. Maybe he'd ask the vampire to cut it out for him... He already seemed quite keen to get his hands dirty. He sighed and closed his eyes. Maybe he'd stop toying with this vampire. Perhaps he wasn't ready to die, at least, not by this vampire's hands. And, he was sure he said enough already to piss the man off. He didn't want to make it any worse at this point.

Andrei watched the hybrid walk over to the couch with a smirk, "You know, for someone that wants me to kill them, your heart beat and adrenaline levels betray you. You're worried that I might. And trust me, the more worried you become the more tempted I am by it." he said casually before walking further into the room. The more Nyk talked the more Andrei really did want to drive a knife into a carotid artery, mostly because the he wanted to knock the smug kid down a few pegs.
He stopped on front of the couch and without a word sent his knife into the hand resting on Nykolae's, making sure to miss bones and any important connective tissues. He didn't go through it, just enough to leave a mark and prove a point. He pulled the knife away and cleaned off small amount of blood with his shirt. "I owe Kaia nothing. Haven't since we parted ways. The only thing keeping you alive right now is not the fact that she'll be mad when she finds your body because trust me when I say that I live for anger and pain. What's keeping you alive is the clean up process. Capiche?" he said in a nonthreatening voice

This was the perfect opportunity to remind him of just how chained down he was. As soon as the knife hit his hand and was out, he leaped from the couch with a yell, eyes blazing with fire at the vampire before him but he couldn't do anything about it. Not even move his fist to punch the man in the nose. His very being was being told no and now he was forced to obey. He swore loudly at his misfortune and brought his hands to his lips, drinking in his own blood that was still a volatile concoction of his own blood and Kaia's. The sudden intake forced the red ring in his eyes to appear before retreating once more behind his normal green. Although the affect she had left on him, mind and body, was wearing off. At first, he'd been irritatingly aware of her very presence and emotions but now, it was starting to fade and he was grateful. He glared at the male vampire, his very body buzzing with anger and energy. He supposed he really had nothing smart to say, after all, he had been the one to initiate this behavior. "I always knew having a heart was a damn disease. Gets in the fucking way. And like I fucking care why you're keeping me alive. I don't even know why Kaia wants me! One minute, I'm minding my own damn business, mind you, I've been doing so for five hundred years, and the next, she's decided she's bored! Just my fucking luck! I get manhandled like a criminal, ripped from my home, tortured in an office as immaculate as a Queen's ass and told that if I don't submit, I'll be destroyed. AND NO ONE WILL TELL ME WHY!!" He directed all his anger at the male vampire, a pure wave of hatred rising off of him. He wasn't looking to complain to the guy, simply vent his frustrations. He came to the penthouse and assumed, which led to his smarting off. Technically, he started the whole shit and Nykolae just wanted it to end. His knuckles were white as his fingernails dug into the palms of his hand, dripping yet even more blood onto the once pristine carpet. "So, if you don't mind, leave me the fuck alone and go fuck Kaia so she gets her head out of her ass!" He moved away from the vampire, making sure to butt his shoulder against his as he went and went straight to the fridge. The dull ache in his hands wasn't enough to quench the feelings of thirst that were coming over him. He thrust the fridge doors open, pulled the top off of a blood bottle and downed the whole thing in one go, not even caring that blood ran at the corners of his mouth. When he was finished, he dropped the bottle, letting it shatter on the floor before he was able to calm down, the blood lowering his explosive anger to just itchy irritation. He did not do well being cooped up...
---
It was fine! In fact, I expected something much more violent! Sorry about the language, if it's too much, I can change it. I can just get carried away when he's mad.

Andrei watched with a raised brow as the hybrid began to explode, finding some strange amusement that he was set off by a mere stab to the hand. Apparently Kaia really had done a number on the boy. It was evident as he kept going on and after awhile Andrei began to feel for the guy. He wasn't going to lie, he definitely still wanted to stab him multiple times for the things he said in his little outburst, but that could probably wait until he had some sort of healing ability back.
"Alright, kid. Let's go get you some good blood and some fresh air." he said as he walked back towards the door, swiping a keycard to exit. "I know how Kaia can be so let's get you out for a couple hours so you don't literally explode."he held the door open and looked at Nyk expectantly. "Oh and don't try to make a for if. As I said, I have the vampiric equivalent of a blood hounds nose. Compared to others of my kind I can find you in half that speed at the least." he warned.

Andrei's voice cut through his self loathing and he looked at the vampire over his shoulder, green eyes narrowed and suspicious. "So wait, you mean to tell me that all of a sudden, setting aside the fact that you could have just as easily stabbed me and left me in a worse state, you feel pity and want to take me out?" He pictured it, a night on the town with serious Andrei. The image became too distorted and cartooney and Nykolae had to shake his head to rid himself of the ridiculous idea before he turned fully around, hands healed but still sporting a red spot where the wounds had been. However, no matter how much Andrei just pissed him off, he couldn't turn down the offer of fresh blood. Not when he'd been taken away from it for so long. He didn't even have the power to stop his body from moving forward.
"Not like I could make a run for it." he added half-heartily as he met Andrei at the doorway, "I tried to jump out the windows but I couldn't. My luck, I'd probably make a break for it and end up back in this Hell-hole, hating myself." Besides, if Andrei was offering him a free meal without consequences, he felt he owed the vampire one. Running would only sign his death warrant.

Andrei couldn't help but chuckle at the surprise of the offer. Nykolae had every right to be suspicious, especially since Andrei wanted to stab him several times more. But he was feeling generous today it seemed. "I want to stab you more but I also know how Kaia can be when she is punishing people... I'm surprised I haven't been in your position considering my dark period of mass murders. Not the point though. I feel bad for you because I know Kaia. I would break you out of here completely if I didn't want to end up in your position when I did it." he said with a shrug. "You definitely shouldn't get used to this from me. I don't generally care about others but you're technically family considering your scent so we'll make an exception this one time." he shuffled the kid out and into elevator.
There was a vampire guard in it, splayed awkwardly on the floor with his neck snapped. Andrei kicked him to the side like he was nothing more than a bag of trash and pressed the button for the lobby before leaning against the elevators back wall. "So you know, it gets better with her. She'll soften up after time and let you out. She just want to make sure you know she's the boss. And like it or not, she is the boss. Her word is law if you like living usually. That and she is kind of scary when she does that thing with her face." he said casually, deciding to help the guy out even if he didn't really like him. No one really should have to live through Kaia's wrath and Andrei firmly believed that.

He followed Andrei into the elevator, staring absently at the vampire on the floor before turning his attention back to Andrei as he pushed the button to descend. He leaned his back causally against the side of the elevator, eyes obsessively watching the floors drop away. He was glad he'd drank that blood, fresh or not. He was able to control himself from visibly shaking in his anticipation of escaping the penthouse. Even if it was only for a short while. It would have been rather embarrassing for Andrei to see him like that. He'd already shown the vampire quite a bit of weakness and Nykolae didn't think he'd be able to handle showing him anymore. He only half listened to him talk, still watching as each floor fell away, bringing them closer to the ground floor. However, ' kind of scary when she does that thing with her face', woke him from his trance and he turned towards Andrei with a smirk, absently touching the spot on his neck where Kaia had drank from him. He had to admit, he'd created masks for those vampires who had drank from him and nearly killed him when he'd been a kid but they'd never been as weird? Terrifying? as Kaia's had been. "Her? Soft? Doubt it...." Of course, the memory of her allowing him to drink from her to recover surfaced and he felt a twinge of irritation. In a way, he didn't want to see Kaia in a different light, a softer light. Having her hateful and uncaring was easier to hate her than if she were caring and thoughtful. He didn't want to like her. After all, he was now her pet, enslaved to her until she released him. In no way did he want to create a bond.
Before given the chance to say anything else or think anymore of Kaia, the elevator dinged and the doors opened, revealing the grand lobby. Without warning, Nykolae was out of the elevator and pushing himself out of the front doors to stand in the open air, eyes closed and smile on his face as he breathed in the fresh air. Cheesy? Perhaps. He didn't care. Never had he taken for granted his freedom till he'd become Kaia's pet. He opened his arms as if to embrace the open air and was quickly approached by someone asking if he was alright. His eyes flashed open, a feral smirk on his face as he let his arms fall to his sides. "Actually, I think there is something you can help me with." he told her, reaching out and taking her hand in his own. If he hadn't the years behind him for self control, he probably would have attacked her there and then but he was definitely not a newly turned vampire. He hadn't managed to survive this long on stupidity.

Andrei watched Nykolae run for the elevator and out of the building before he decided to stand up straight and follow, surprisingly unworried that the kid try to make an escape. After all, Kaia would had a field day with the hybrid when she captured him again and he didn't think Nyk was that dumb. So he merely strolled out of the lobby, hand in the pockets of his leather jacket as he passed several bodies of vampires with snapped necks. He smiled, amused by his handy work, before he stepped outside into the open air and looked at Nyk.
Andrei rolled his eyes and grabbed the girl the hybrid had plans to eat, focusing on her and making her look him in the eye. "Do as he says. You will enjoy every minute of it. And when it is over, you will forget it." he waited for the girl to nod and repeat the information back to Nyk. "We don't want to add to the body count Kaia probably has stacked up against you. Have a snack and show her a good time but she will be returning home this evening." he said sternly. That was also to cover his own tracks. If Kaia found out about this and then also found out he had let the kid rape and/or murder someone he would probably never hear the end of it and probably end up with his neck snapped at least once for it. He liked his spinal column in tact a little too much to let it be broken multiple times by his angered vampire "mother" and he wasn't afraid to admit that.

Feeding from humans was just the same as humans sitting down for dinner so the act of sharing a human or even offering one up as a gift, was normal vampire behavior. So Nykolae couldn't help the smirk that crossed his face when Andrei compelled the girl. All of a sudden, it was like Andrei had just given him an all you can eat buffet for free with free uninterrupted entertainment. When he turned to him and explained that she was going home tonight in an almost threatening way, Nykolae snorted, putting his arm over her shoulders as she leaned into him, a smile on her blank face, as he gave Andrei a smug smile. "What are you, my father?" He pushed past Andrei, taking the girl with him who had already wrapped her arm around his waist, making the two look like any other couple walking around the city. But Nykolae wasn't looking for the comfort she was providing. Instead, he was looking for a place they wouldn't be disturbed... Normally, he took girls back to his own apartment where he could just ignored anyone who bothered to knock on his door, no matter what was going on inside. Here, in the open city, it would be a lot harder to have privacy.
He found what appeared to be a utility closet sunk into the side of an office building and it was almost routine to bend, pick the lock and yank the door open, bringing them both inside. Darkness surrounded them as the door clocked closed and it was only by luck that Nykolae found the light switch, illuminating yes, a utility room for the surrounding traffic lights. Like a good girl, she quickly initiated, not even caring where they were. It wasn't long till clothes were off and the smell of blood filled the room. It had been so long since he had a girl beneath him that moaned at all the right places and didn't try and push him away when he bit her. He'd heard of compelling when he'd been a younger immortal but had never been able to succeed. He'd written it off as a vampire ability and had learned to do things the hard way. But no girl he'd taken an interest in had ever turned him on as much as this one did and she was merely doing it because she was told to. It wasn't until they were done and Nykolae was pulling his clothes back on that he remembered she was still at his mercy until he released her. He almost snorted at the ironicness of the situation. He'd become Kaia. The girl was staring absently into space, a dazed smile on her face. He snapped his fingers in front of her face, grabbing her attention. He handed her her clothes and bend down, kissing her against her neck before he straightened back up. "Get dressed and go home. You performed flawlessly." She nodded and pulled her clothes on.
Nykolae turned away from her and opened the door of the utility room, checking the coast before stepping out, leaving the door a crack so she could find her way out. He stretched and let the smile spread across his face. He felt as good as he did before Kaia had nearly drained him. More like himself again. Fresh human blood also helped him heal the rest of the way and the wounds she had inflicted on him weeks ago were finally disappeared. He supposed he owed Andrei a favor now... Son of a bitch...
