The east side of the city is the very heart of Sacrosanct - it's unique skyline is a clash between modern sky rises and small Victorian-inspired storefronts. In the heart of downtown, the sleek colored glass buildings reign supreme though their old-world roots can be seen in the most peculiar places from the lamp post styled electric street light to the stone sidewalks. The old world architecture slowly returns the further from downtown you travel, however. It's here that magic thrives, it hums in every stone and can be felt in every breath. Often, newcomers to the city may become overwhelmed by such sensations but, eventually, it becomes an ever-present feeling that's hardly noticed.

Organized into nine verticle zones, each of which features a sky lobby and a light-filled garden atrium which merge the upscale interior with a faux landscaped exterior setting.
He knew he was affecting her; he just wanted to hear her say it. It turned him on even more to hear her own discipline coming undone. Every time her hips brushed against him, his jeans only grew tighter and his frustration grew with it. He wanted nothing more than to throw her over his shoulder caveman style and take her off to a bathroom or private room. Hell, even a broom closet would do at this point. Then he could get his fill of her and then some. But she was holding firmly to her beliefs, letting him know that the torture went both ways. He saw the way her eyes fluttered, basically begging him to fuck her to the ends of the earth and yet still she held strong while he was falling to pieces. When the room went dark, it was too good an opportunity to pass up. She was so close, resting her head on his chest. And while a part of him wanted nothing more than to sigh in contentment and just hold her, assure her that she was okay through this, the very sexually frustrated part of him wanted to torture her just a little bit more. The moment he touched her, she gasped and he growled in response. As her hand gripped his wrist, he thought for sure she was going to stop him. Instead his eyes glittered with mischief as she instead pulled his hand underneath the fabric wher ehe could hold her bare breast. It fit into his palm just right and he groaned, his mouth soon following as his warm breath tickled the tip of her nipple before he took it in his mouth. He didn't care that they were surrounded by people and the lights could come on at any moment. In this moment, it was just him and Amelia doing what they do best. His other hand found her soaked panties and he moved them aside, swirling one finger around her opening before he plunged it in, once, twice, before slipping it right back out. He could feel her pushing against him and he knew he was being a gigantic tease right now but he couldn't help but feel a little satisfied after what she'd been doing to him all night. She said he had surprised her and he chuckled, returning her kiss. "I can be devious too, my little minx." He whispered before his tongue flicked her ear lobe. He leaned in closer. "But I wouldn't mind finishing you off in any corner of your choosing. Hell, if you want to wrap your legs around my shoulders right here, I'm game." He smirked, his lips brushing her ear as he pulled back. She kissed him again and this time it was a long wanting kiss. He groaned into it, his body stiffening with pleasure as her hand found his swollen zipper. He wanted so badly for her to take it out right here and see them both to the climax he felt they both deserved but instead she only stroked it through the confining fabric of his jeans. It was so damn frustating. The moment her hand stopped, he felt his focus slipping back. He could sense the sudden rising panic in the air and he blinked the sexual haze from his eyes as he scanned the darkness. At her voice, his arm tightened around her waist, drawing her ever closer, wanting to shield her with his body should she need it. As the sounds of weaponry started, he instantly reacted. He didn't care about the hundreds of people all suddenly crashing and falling into everyone else as they tried to get to safety. He only cared about the one in his arms. His wings unfurled, wrapping around both of them, turning to steel as bullets started to ping off of them. His brows furrowed though as he sniffed the air and looked at Amelia. "Amelia...do I smell blood?" Worry instantly sprang to life in his eyes. Did she get hurt on his watch again? He heard her say they needed to get out of there and he felt himself nodding. He knew any normal human wouldn't see but she was a vampire and had very good vision in the dark. "Stay close." He kept his wings up as a shield as they made their way toward the exit. Any time he felt a bullet or arrow hit his wings, he'd use the path of it to find the source and make a clone of him appear. Soon grunts and screams of the assaulters filled the air as his doubles started fighting back. Soon enough, they burst through the back door and into an alleyway outside. He shook his head as he looked at her with a wry grin. "We have to stop meeting like this." He didn't know he was repeating her last thought. |
