"You talk too much. I will be fine after some rest. It is not like I have not been in this state before and it won't be the last time." Cedric closed his eyes and pa.s.sed out.

Yuki watched Claude lift up Cedric and she had a deep look of concern on her face. She wanted to follow them but decided to watch the a.s.sa.s.sin named Sephira as she did not fully trust the girl yet.

"Will he be alright? I have not seen a person gets so exhausted after doing something so easy before." Sephira looked at Yuki who was hesitating while looking at the door.

"I am sure there are other factors that need to be taken into account. I am sure that it also has to do with Master Cedric not sleeping all that much. There is nothing we can do for him as I do not know what it is that he needs at this time." Yuki looked down at the floor and closed her eyes while clenching her hands into fists.

Claude came back into the room, "the thing that you can do for him Yuki, is to be by his side when he awakens. He needs you by his side and if you are still concerned make that fool eat more chocolates but then again it is also not wise for him to consume so many of those things in one sitting. Nonetheless, the choice shall be yours and yours alone. I will update Sephira on what Cedric will require from her and go over the bond that now links the two of us."

"If you say that is what I should do then I will take my leave and go to his side." Yuki bows and slowly leaves the room. When she turns the corner she bolts to the kitchen. 'Cedric please be okay. I am sorry for talking so much blood and the fact that you had to use your magic to protect me only shows how much you care for me.'

Claude looks at Sephira, "when he did his magic he gave not one but two marks because he already has a slave why create a second one? Since you are infatuated with me it would make sense that you be slave bound to me would it not? I can feel your eyes burning with desire for me and that is alright if you do not mind the fact that I am not human? Also, Cedric knew that I have been hunting for a necromancer and now that I finally have one within my grasp so I will not let you go so easily." He stepped towards her and grabs her hands and pins them to the wall and leans in and kisses her deeply before she could answer. He then deepens the kiss as soon as she opens her mouth to let him in.

Sephira feels him closing in on her and she moves back against the wall for support she gives herself to him. 'If it is a necromancer that he has been hunting for then I will be able to help him in a way that no one else can, but I wonder why he needs a necromancer? I will ask him.' She went to ask him but then when he kisses her all her thoughts go blank. Enjoying his overbearing and sudden kiss she unconsciously opens her mouth and she feels him deepen the kiss. When he ends the kiss she collapses into his chest like putty. Forgetting what she was going to ask.

Claude caught Sephira and chuckled. 'What a reaction. I will try to make her melt more but I need to explain some things first but I do not want to go over why I want a necromancer at least not as of yet.' "Since your mark with me is the slave bond we have a lot of things we will need to go over and because there is magic involved it has some restrictions for it as well. If I was to give you a command you will not be able to go against my orders. For instance if I command you to give me a kiss."

Sephira looked up and was listening to Claude and then the command hit her. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him gently on the lips. After she came out of the trance she blushed deeply. "I see. So with that in place you will be able to command me to do different things and I will have to obey but what if you give me choices will I be able to choose what I would like to do and what if both options are ones that I do not want to do? Do I have a say in which one I would like to do?"

Claude sat down in the chair, "there are commands that I will give you and you will have no choice but to obey but I can request things from you and you will be able to choose if you want to do them also, with options if it is a command you will have to choose one or the other. There is no way for you to not choose an option. Now that I am your master you must call me Claude unless we are alone. I wouldn't want my little necromancer to get killed after I just found you. Also, as a command, I want you to go over everything that you have reported to Claudia."

Yuki reaches the kitchen and opens the fridge and pulls out two chocolates and places them on a plate and then bolts to the bedroom. She opens the door and walks towards the bed.

Cedric opened his eyes, looked up at Yuki, "I might lose control, Yuki. I have been using a lot of my powers lately. Sorry for causing you concern my little vampire." He reached his hand out and grabbed her arm.

"What will happen when you lose control, Master Cedric?" Yuki watches as Cedric's eyes s.h.i.+ft to ebony. 'He looks like he is in pain. I will do anything that would help him gain his control back.'

"It's hard to say I might go on a rampage or I might ravage you. If you stay by my side I may even cause you harm. My demon wants out and he knows that I am weak at the moment. So anything that happens after I lose control I am sorry ..." Cedric's hand drops and his conciseness fades. His body starts to have a mauve glow around it and when Cedric's eyes open they are neither emerald green or ebony but instead are gold.

"It is nice to be free and this immortal sure has great powers that are able to resist my words of temptation but now I understand why he has been able to do so." The demon glances at the vampire standing in front of him, "I know that he got worn out because of you. As a rare treat, I will chat with you as it is rare to meet one of royal descent. My name is Asmoday and before you ask Cedric and I have not had a conversation before. He does not know what demon he has been linked to. I know that he has only thought about a way to become disconnected to me and that would work for both of us but that is not what will happen."
