The Vampire's Witch

Talking with Zane: Will

Zane and Star sparred for almost an hour, he'd have her take on a fighting stance and move to correct her until she had it. Much of their time was spent with him correcting her after kicks, punches, and blocks as well. It was much different for the redhead than fighting with a weapon and she preferred the weight of her sword to the hand to hand combat she was learning. Star was drenched in sweat after they were done while the multicolored hair wolf didn't look bothered by the exercise at all.

Will came over from talking with Drae after her last sparring session, giving her underhanded tricks to fight with which he had learned from his sire. He brought both the witch and wolf a bottle of water, Zane thanked him taking a sip before twisting the cap back on. Star wiped the sweat off her brow with her shirt then took large gulps from the offered water bottle before thanking her mate.

She finished off her water and smiled at Zane, "Thank you for working with me Zane, I appreciate it."

"No problem Star, I'm glad you're wanting to learn how to fight." He smiled at the redhead, Will watched the two interact with a small smile on his face. He knew he would need to talk to Zane soon about Star and the wolf's relationship with her.

"I think I'm going to head in for a shower, I'm gross." The witch wrinkled her nose looking down at her sweat drenched clothing.

"You are a little rank." The wolf leaned over sniffing at her with a soft teasing smile on his face.

"I'll walk you to our room so you can take a nice long bath luv." The blonde vampire smiled at his mate before turning to the wolf, "I'll see you later wolf."

Zane nodded at the vampire before turning towards the group of sparring werewolves, it seemed like the warriors had started their training regiment and it look interesting to the green and blue-haired wolf.

Will grabbed Star's hand leading her into the house and into their room, he left her as he heard the water start to fill the tub and the soft scent of lavender bubble bath feeling the air. He went in search of the wolf, he needed to talk with him.

Walking quickly through the hallways he passed his sire, "Not now Your Majesty." He said walking quickly away before the vampire could try to drag him off for sparring." He passed several other shifters before finally finding the wolf in the entertainment room talking with the young wolf Molly.

"Zane, could we talk for a bit?" He walked over to them waiting for a break in their conversation first.

"Sure, what's up Will?" He looked at the vampire wondering if maybe he had gone on Star to hard during her training and if the vampire was coming to chew him out because of it.

"Want to head outside?" Will asked heading towards the hallway.

"Sure, lead the way." Zane followed the blonde vampire and bidding the younger wolf a good night.

The two continued to walk until Will turned to lean against a tall thick oak tree. He looked down at the shorter man, "Star figured out you have feelings for her, more than friend feelings."

Zane shoved his hands in his pockets and looked down dreading to hear the next words, fearing the vampire would tell him to stay away from his mate. Or worse yet that he was taking her away and he'd most likely never see her again.

"She loves you too. I don't think she realizes it's that deep yet, but it's only a matter of time. I won't lose her, I think if I made her choose between the two of us neither one of us would like the outcome, she's stubborn like that." He smiled at the wolf, "Communication is key to any relationship and all I ask from you is honesty, I can accept you and her having a relationship. Not just one of friendship, but as lovers and if you'd like we could turn this into a trinity, it wouldn't be my first time with another man, so I know how it works as well."

He paused looking at the wolf's shocked face before the shorter man spoke. "This is not how I pictured this conversation going, but I'm not mad about it."

"So you want me too?" The wolf asked in shock.

The vampire smirked and nodded at the wolf, "Wouldn't be opposed to it, your not bad to look at and when it comes to s*x vampires aren't really picky about the gender, most of us don't have the same hang-ups as mortals."

"Crazy talk man." The wolf smiled at the vampire, not upset about how the conversation was going, I mean after all, he felt that the vampire and the witch were his pack. It wouldn't be such a stretch for them to become lovers as well.

"Why don't you come and shut me up then?" He smirked at the wolf eyebrow raised in challenge. The vampire leaned forward, pulling the wolf to him by his belt loops. The wolf felt his breath catch in his throat he had never really thought of Will as sexy, but at that moment he could see what Star found so attractive about him. He pushed the blonde vampire back against the tree and leaned up roughly kissing him, the vampire started to deepen the kiss fighting the wolf for dominance.

Hands groped hard plans of muscles as the two continued to kiss the vampire wondering how far the wolf would let him take things. He slid his hand down to the front of the wolf's jeans surprised at the size of his denim-clad erection. The wolf pulled away from the vampire breath coming in short pants, "I'm not sure how I feel about this."

"That's understandable, I am a handsome bloke and I figure that's probably your first time kissing another man. We can take things as slow as you need to pet." The vampire looked very serious, not wanting to scare away the wolf.

"Not conceited at all are you, Will?" The wolf smiled at the vampire, relaxing a little bit that things hadn't suddenly become weird between the two men. Thinking about the witch her said, "I think I need to talk with Star." Will nodded in agreement before leaning back against the tree, "I think I'll stay outside and enjoy the night air for a bit."

Zane turned and made his way towards the pack house trying to think of the things he wanted to discuss with the redheaded witch.
