As expected, Lucio wasn't playing nice. He all but pushed Jakub out the door. Jake's pet was still roaming around the apartment and Lucio made it very clear that he wanted both of them gone. Something unusual for him. He used to use just about every trick to keep Jakub in his siights. Just the slight touch from the man made Jakub want to bash his face in, but unfortunately he was right. With Lucio dead there was no possible way of them clearing their names. That was the only reason he was still breathing. However Lucio seemed to be convinced that there were other reasons along with that, and Jakub wasn't going to tell him otherwise. As he reached the door, Jake turned to face him, resisting the urge to kill him right then and there. Everything he had said was true, but he couldn't give in now or he'd be giving Lucio exactly what he wants. Or maybe...maybe that was the way to go all along. Maybe instead of going against him all this time, he should have been cooperating. A voice in the back of his head told him to wait and talk it over with Verena, but Jakub never could resist a good opportunity. The blue eyed demon tanker his arm away from Lucio's grasp and watched as the snake slithered back into its proper place. "What do you want from me, huh? I always did as you asked and you used me in return. I should be the one looking for revenge" as he spoke, Jake let a slight hint of desperationslip into his voice. Not much, but enough for the other to detect it. He proceeded to glare at him silently, hoping he would take the bait. If he didn't, things would go on as usual, but if he did, the tables could be completely turned.

Matt continued to stare at the potatoes in confusion until Verena stepped in to help. She put them in a pot for him and told him what to do. It made sense, of course. Mashed potatoes neeeded to be mashed. "Yes ma'am" he said as he immediately set to work. He was starving, and all that worrying about Jakub made him even more hungry. "How about I cook tomorrow?" the wolf suggestedm he obviously had no idea what he was doing and he would most likely mess everything up, but he wanted to do something nice for her. Besides, they had the internet. Cooking shows, recipies, tutorials, you name it. He would just have to do some research and choose whatever looked easier. He hoped Verena would let him. After all he needed to get some practice too. If he got the okay, he would come home right after work and start his research. In fact, he might even start tonight.

Eliana walked purposely. Though it was the same root she always took, tonight the determination was different. The stakes were much higher. She glanced back every once in a while to make sure Eli was behind her and kept a firm grip on her weapon at all times. They had been told several things about this Sting character to try to scare them into not coming after him, but that only helped them identify him. He's very quiet when he works, they said. He doesn't give much warning before showing up nor before attacking. He kills for sport, just like his partner Berserk. They have a vague idea of what she looks like. Very beautiful with long black hair, but that doesn't narrow it doesn't very much. Elie continues to gather facts as they walk. Anything she could remember about the two, mainly sting since he was the one that had been spotted. Alien wondered if her brother knew about the tattoo. He must know. Eli was much smarter than her, as well as more likely to be able to gather facts about who they were looking for. He might even know more than she does. "Hey Eli, do you know why they call him sting?" she decided to ask, hoping her brother could add more pieces to the puzzle.

Lucio was expecting Jakub to leave his apartment so that he could go back to making his life hell. But he wasn't moving. Not that Lucio really minded. He was enjoying these games that Jake insisted on playing. "What do you want from me, huh? I always did as you asked and you used me in return. I should be the one looking for revenge" The demon raised an eyebrow and the chuckled darkly. Revenge? On Lucio? For what? Having fun. Turning Jakub's uncanny love into a toy. Lucio a demon from the lowest levels of hell. Jakub knew that Lucio would never return the love the way that he wanted. He walked into it and Lucio made do with this situation. Though he would never admit it Jakub meant a lot to Lucio. And when he left, he was broken for a while. But he got over it and decided to make his life a living hell instead. Love sick Jakub and Miserable Jakub bring Lucio the same about of fun. "You did it to yourself. You fell in love with me knowing that I would never return the feeling. You never left my side despite the countless times I had allowed you to leave. I was your sun, moon, and stars. You couldn't breathe unless I was holding your hand. You couldn't exact revenge on me if you wanted too." Lucio said with slight amusement. He did miss those moments. Toying with Jake always made his day. But he would not sit here and allow Jake to threaten him without being reminded of how their relationship really went. "Are we done now, puppet or are you still begging for mercy?" He asked, ready to get rid of the blue eyed demon.

Verena continued with the vegetables as Mathias mashed the potatoes. It was cute to watch him cook in the kitchen and perfect the food so that it tasted as good as the demon could make it. Vera always ate it, but between them they knew her food was better. "How about I cook tomorrow?" The demon raised an eyebrow at her boyfriend. That would be quite amusing. Watching him attempt to make an entire meal. By himself. Alright. As long as you don't burn the house down." She said jokingly. Of course she would watch him and make sure that if he needed help she could chip in. "Once you finish mashing, add a little bit of water, put it on the stove, and stir." She said.

Elias liked the root that his twin was taking. It allowed her to see everything and it was simple. He made a mental note to try this route out when it was his turn to patrol. That way he could see demon from a farther distance and not get attached to one, like the blue eyed demon. There wasn't really anyone around. Not even other supernatural creatures. Sting was a Level 5 demon. Dangerous to almost everyone. Any sane person would stay indoors. Any sane hunters would travel in groups not pairs. But the twins aren't sane. They have pain in their hearts and their desire for revenge is strong. They deserve to hunt and kill Sting. Unfortunately, they weren't really sure about what his looks like. All they know is the scorpion tattoo on his back and his dark hair. Not much information considering demons aren't usually walking about shirtless. His counterpart Berserk had and even more vague description. Long ink black hair. That was all they knew. She didn't have an distinctive marks. "Hey Eli, do you know why they call him sting?" Eli nodded. "The tattoo on his back is a scorpion. When it comes to life the stinger will inject a poison so strong that it will deteriorate your internal organs." He looked around for a brief moment. "So don't get too close." That is the most Eli has said today. He doesn't really plan on talking for the rest of the evening.

It took every ounce of strength that Jake possessed to not punch Lucio's face through the back of his head. He went on about how Jake used to depend on him, which was true. Everything he said was true, there was no reason to deny it now, but his threats seemed to strike a nerve in Lucio. "True" he said simply. He wasn't going to argue against the obvious. Of course he was only referring to the first part of the statement. He seemed to be convinced that Jake still feared him, or loved him or whatever emotions he thinks he's got over Jake. Regardless of how badly he wanted to prove that wrong, having him think that was to Jakub and Verena's advantage. Still so full of yourself. The words almost left Jakub's mouth, but he decided to keep that comment to himself. "But no, i'm not done". Jake rested his back against the closed door as he stared up at the man that was once his entire world. Jakub from the past was such a naive fool. He went from demanding love to demanding fear. Bad decisions all around. "I didn't come here to threaten you, no need to get all sentimental". The sarcasm oozed out of Jake's words. Creatures like Lucio didn't get sentimental. In order to get sentimental, one has to have emotions. Lucio doesn't know the meaning of that word. "I came to make a deal, also.." Jake examined the demon from head to toe. He seemed tense, and oddly eager to get rid of him. "My being here is making you uncomfortable...why is that?". As he recalled it, never in the years of knowing him had Jakub made Lucio uncomfortable.

Eli answered Eliana's question in detail and she smiled. "Good, just making sure you know". His warning was right though. They had to stay a safe distance from the criminal if they wanted to survive. The society had an antidote for just about every demon bite, scratch and the works, but they had yet to find anything that worked fast enough against Sting's poison. Meaning that if they were stung, they were done for. The streets were completely empty. No demons, not any type of supernatural, and no hunters other than themselves. Everyone was too terrified to come outside, all because of one creature. "No creature should have this much power" she muttered to herself, not really caring if Eli heard. They continued walking along Elie's usual root for a while but still found absolutely nothing and no one. It was starting to irritate her. To keep herself calm she tried changing the subject. "So where were you all day today?" She asked her brother curiously. He never said anything about where he went, nor did he answer her question as to why he hadn't answered her messages. That was slightly suspicious.

Verena requested that Matt didn't burn the house down when he cooked. The wolf just smiled and nodded in agreement. She explained to him what to do next with the potatoes and he tried to follow her instructions exactly. He put them in the pot as he had been instructed and began mashing as if his life depended on it. He eventually finished his job and stared at the mush. Was it finished now? He didn't even know if he had done it right. If he was going to cook for her the next day, he would need to do a lot of research. Something like making mashed potatoes shouldn't be this hard to figure out. Perhaps he was just colinarily-impaired, if that was even a thing. "Am I done?" he asked, eager to eat. His stomach had been protesting for a while now. It was getting louder by the minute.

So he had assumed right, Lucio was uncomfortable. Jake wasn't sure what to do with this information. He tucked it in the back of his mind for the time being. The man explained his reasoning but Jake wasn't sure he should believe it. Tragic break up? There it was again. Why was he so intent on bringi g up the past. Perhaps he was trying to get Jake to snap. He always was the best at mind games. Well this time he was out of luck. He suggested he'd make tea and Jake twisted his face in disgust. "I hate tea". That's something he should have known, or perhaps he did and didn't care to admit it. Still, Jake let the demon go on to do whatever he pleased. So he wanted to know what it is that Jake wants. The demon thought for a moment before pushing himself away from the door and walking back towards the apartment. He really hadn't stayed this long since he left. The place hadn't changed much, or at all really. "What do I want indeed" he said in a low tone, almost too hard to hear. "I want to know what it is that you want. What is Lucio's greatest desire?". His tone was slightly sinister, but not too much. He didn't want to anger his host. Not bothering to ask before taking a seat, he made himself comfortable in the nearest arm chair, waiting for the response.

"Dinner is ready". Best words he's heard all day. Matt quickly helped Vera set the table before taking a seat. The food smelled amazing, even the mashed potatoes he had made. He noticed the fancy plates and smiled slightly. "What's the occasion?" he asked curiously. He didn't hesitate to begin eating. Just as expected, the food tasted incredible. He woundered if he would ever be able to make something like that. He tried not to eat it all too fast, even though he was starving. He wanted to get a proper taste of the food. If he ate it too fast he would hardly be able to enjoy it. Plus he was getting to spend some time with his girlfriend, something his pack hadn't let him do in a while. Not on purpose. Things just always ended up getting complicated when he was with them and ended up getting home pretty late, but his top priority had to be Verena.

Library huh? "That explains everything" she said simply. Eli never answered his phone when he went to the library to study, something he really should change. If an emergency were to happen while he's there, he wouldn't find out until it was too late. Eli returned the question and Eliana thought about her answer foe a while. "At school" she said, remaining silent for a couple of seconds "with Timothy". She finally added. Eli knew Tim. He knew he was a good guy, so there was no reason for him to be upset. She did spend a good amount of time with him, but it was just a friendship. Hunter rules didn't allow it to go any further. Hunters could only date and marry other hunters to keep the legacy going as long as possible. Something Eliana always found ridiculous.

"I hate tea" Lucio ignored the comment for the fact that he did not care. The tea was not for Jake it was Lucio. He enjoyed relaxing with a nice hot cup of tea. And the blue eyed demon wasn't leaving so he was just going to relax with him here. He started boiling the water when Jake finally made his way through the apartment. He picked out a tea bag, set out the honey, and pulled out a mug. Looking in the living room he saw that his guest had made himself comfortable in the chair. Lucio still wasn't serving him tea. "I want to know what it is that you want. What is Lucio's greatest desire?". The demon was slightly confused and angered. He did not take lightly to being mocked. If Jakub was still the naive idiot he was back then, Lucio would have immediately put him in his place. But Jakub was stronger and Lucio couldn't break. Breaking would mean that Jake won and he would never let that happen. But the demon thought about the question as he began brewing his tea. Desires? He doesn't really remember what it was like to desire something. The last time he did, his desire left leaving Lucio shattered. Now he just does as he pleases. Anything that makes him happy is usually the case with all of his current actions. He took the tea into the living area where Jakub was. He took a seat across from him and sipped his tea slowly. "I desire nothing." he stated simply. He took another long sip of his warm tea. "I no longer have the passion to desire anything." he added.

Eliana bought it. She believed Elias was at the library which meant he did not have to explain himself further. If he had expanded the lie anymore than he had, it would have given him away. He did feel horrible for not responding to any of her messages and next time he will make sure that he at least texts back something to let her know that he wasn't dead. Elie had answered the question. The hunter raised his eyebrow at the word Tim. She was with a boy. There was nothing wrong with Timothy. He was a great guy and was really nice to everyone that he met. It was the fact that Elie was with a boy that semi shocked him. That was almost unheard of. Eli was happy for her, though her relationship with Tim could never reach pass friendship. That was the rules of the society. Marry within the society, continue the legacy. Elias determined that he was going to end up dying alone because of the rule. Not many people in the society were like him or even understood him. It was best just to keep to himself. "Do you like him?' He was just curious.

Verena sat down and took a bite of the food. It was amazing. Even the mashed potatoes were flawless. Because of that she was definitely eager to see him cook an entire dinner tomorrow. She might make it monthly thing if he does really good. Mathias was clearly in love with the food. He was almost half way done with his plate. He always had a hard time savoring the food that she cooked not that she ever minded. She would cook him more food if she had too. He had made about the plates, but she decided not to answer. She was to hungry to come up with something witty. "The mashed potatoes are great babe." she said with a smile.

Lucio was no longer treating him like the victim like he had been when he first got here, which meant that the other could clearly see he was no longer easily breakable. Any other time he would have been happy about it, but right now that only worked against him. Regardless of how badly it hurt his insodes, he needed to level down the attitude, perhaps show some aspects of the older Jakub that Lucio loved to push around so much. According to him, he had no desires, but Jake didn't think that was at all true. He spoke as if Jakub had been the bad guy for leaving, as if that had bothered him so much. "There has to be something you want". The demon came over and sat across from him a little too close for comfort. Jake thought on his feet. What would the old Jake do in this situation. He remembered an old nervous habit. Whenever he felt nervous or scared he tended to play with any jewelery he was wearing. He had long since lost that habit along with many other things, but he remembered it very clearly. He also remembered how nervous he would become whenever Lucio sat too close to him. "Idn't this what you wanted? Me coming to you for help?" he said, casually pulling on the tiny crescent moon that hung from his neck. Lucio had said so himself, he would keep making his life hell until Jake came running to him for mercy. "Well here I am...so what do I do now?" he asked in a very sour tone. .

Eli didn't say anything about her being with a boy for a while. Elie was relieved. Unfortunately it didn't last long. "Do you like him?". The question caught Alien very much off guard foe a few reasons. One, Eli never really asks questions about anything. Be he could just be trying to look out for her. Two, the answer that immediately popped into her head almost scared her. "Yeah" she said with a shrug, deciding to play dumb. She knew what kind of Like eli meant, but she was going to pretend otherwise. "He's a good friend, why wouldn't I?". She continued to walk, hoping Eli wouldn't try to explain what he meant. She didn't want to lie to her brother, and she needed to tell someone, but if she said it out loud it would become reality. That's something Eliana did not want to face. She always opted to stay as far away from guys as possible, so how had Tim ever managed to get this close?

Mathias was congratualted on his cooking efforts and he smiled brightly. "Thank you!" he took another bite of the steak and smiled. "But this is better" he said, referring to the meat on his fork. Maybe he wouldn't do such an awful job at cooking after all, he just had to keep it simple. Eventually he finished eating. Verena was no where near done, so he just stay in his seat to keep her company. "so how did your day go today, aside from meeting that fallen angel" Matt asked, wondering where she would want to hang the feather she brought. He also thoifhr about putting up a picture of Verena. He couldn't frame her but he could certainly frame a photograph. He examined the wall carefully, looking for a good location.

"There has to be something you want" Lucio was wondering why Jakub was being so persistent on his needs. He has never cared before. In fact, Jake had made it a point to make sure that this demon knew how much he hated him. But now the blue eyed demon wanted to cater to his needs. Wanted to know what he desired. Lucio was confused. Completely and utterly confused. This had to be a game. That would be the only thing that made sense. Jakub was playing a game with him. He did not appreciate the idea of being a pawn. Jakub must have thought that he was that strong to the point where he could be used as a toy. The demon refrained from smirking. Lucio took another sip of his tea, as the confusing demon moved closer. Jake was doing the thing he used to do when he was nervous. He would toy with some jewelry that he would have on. "Well here I am...so what do I do now?" Lucio wasn't expecting him to cave so soon. When he made that threat to him so many years ago, he was expecting the blue eyed demon to fight forever. But to actually have him here, begging for mercy. This threw him off, but he wasn't going to give that away. The demon took another sip of his tea. "Well, this is a sight to see." He teased a bit. "Tell me, my pet. Is there a catch? Are you using yourself as a bargaining chip?" He asked as he placed the tea cup back down. "To get you, what is it you want me to do?" That would determine whether or not it would be worth it to keep Jakub.

Though his sister said yes, he was unsure if him and his sibling were talking about the same thing. "He's a good friend, why wouldn't I?" Elias quickly realized that his sister did actually like this boy, but she wasn't going to admit. He wasn't going to bother her about it. It wouldn't get them anywhere. He just nodded and continued following her through her route. Eli put his gun, back in his holster. There was no activity going on and was sick of holding it. He regrets not bringing a book to read.

Verena was still eating by the time Mathias finished his food. He stayed at the table though and waited for her to finish like any gentleman should. She sipped her water. "so how did your day go today, aside from meeting that fallen angel" The demon shrugged and placed her glass back down. "It was rather boring and lonely. Meeting that angel was the most interesting part of my day." She stated kind of sad. She doesn't do much since hunters are always after her. And she can't openly kill people like she used to, so she is always bored. Except when Matt is around. He keeps her entertained.

Pet? The demon was asking for it. Jakub was beyond annoyed with his arrogance. Maintain his cool had to be the hardest thing he had done in a while. On the bright side, his arrogance meant that he had bought the act. Jakub continued to mess around with his pendent as if he hadn't even realized he was doing so and let out a sigh. "Of course there's a catch" he answered simply. Lucio wouldn't believe him if he just willingly gave in without asking for anything in return. NOt to mention that there would be no point to any of this if Jakub didn't ask for what he wanted. "What happened between you and I is between you and I. There's no reason why Verena should have to pay for it." of course Jake wanted to give his best friend his freedom, but he also wanted his own. However if he asked for too much Lucio would turn him away immediately. "I give you want you want and you give her and her boyfriend protection from the hunters". Lucio was more than capable of doing that. The question now was, what did he want in return? "anything except me dying is fair game". Jakub was more than confident. The old Jakub that Lucio loved to push around was completely gone, and the new Jakub was just as sinister and careless as him.

Eli put his gun away and so did Elie. There was absolutely nothing going on tonight. They hadn't run into a single demon. Not even one, and there were absolutely no other supernaturals around. Even the vampires were staying out of the streets. The hunter sighed and ran a hand through her hair. "That demon is starting to irritate me for many different reasons" she muttered, referring to the fact that he had completely scared away their job. If nothing showed up in the next few minutes, Elie decided they would just go back home. In the midst of the silence there was a low buzzing sound, followed by a similar one right after. Elie pulled out her phone to look at the flashing screen. IMPORTANT: All areas are clear. Proceed as usual. Elie sighed in relief. Maybe now they would get to have some fun. Unfortunately, they didn't get to catch Sting, but there was always next time.

Vera said her day was boring and Matt frowned. If he could go to work with her to make her day fun he would, but he needed to work as well and they probably wouldn't allow him where she worked. Which brought up a question. What exactly did Vera do. Matt knows that she hunts down rogue creatures, but then what? He never thought to ask. Maybe now was a good time. He was getting ready to do so, but his phone's vibration in his pocket interrupted him. The wolf pulled out the device and read the message out loud, immediately feeling relieve. It seemed like Jakub had gone straight home after all. Still, it was probably best for Vera to stay inside, and for Jakub to do the same for the next few days.

Lucio knew better than to assume that Jakub would come here without some kind of agenda. "What happened between you and I is between you and I. There's no reason why Verena should have to pay for it." Free Verena. That was what Jakub wanted. He wanted his best friend to be released from the horrors that is Lucio. That was reasonable. He never liked her. "I give you want you want and you give her and her boyfriend protection from the hunters". Now that was highly unreasonable. Everyone knew that Berserk was a highly wanted demon, just like Sting. Taking her off that ranking would have to mean one of two things. The hunters already have her, which they would know that they didn't. Or that she was dead. And Verena was not an easy demon to kill. Several hunters would have to gang up on her at once and managed not to be touched by her. '"I can leave Verena alone, but I cannot give her protection. She is too dangerous of a demon. They want her dead for other reasons." He stated. "I can detach her from the hunter I killed. But that won't change the fact that they still want her dead." Berserk was still killing people and creatures. Everyone that wasn't a demon wanted her dead. Lucio was powerful, but he wasn't a miracle worker. "Her wolf boyfriend can and will be protected." He finally agreed. He had connections to keep that wolf from going under if Verena gets caught doing what she was doing. Lucio saw everything even when no one saw him. Now his attention was on his pet. "Now for you. You must agree to be at my beck and call. Whenever I need you to do something, you must do it without question. I will not force you to live here as I did in the past until I find out you are planning to betray me. Once I figure it out, I will lock you up in the basement, kill Verena, and her wolf." He said, calmly. Lucio did not like when people backed out on deals. "Deal?" He stuck his hand out, for Jakub to shake it.

"That demon is starting to irritate me for many different reasons" Elias nodded. No one was not. Not even one measly creature. Sting had scared away everyone. And Berserk must have realized they were after Sting, so she stayed inside as well. This job was really boring. His phone vibrated and he quickly read the message. Sting was gone. The hunter was annoyed and put his phone away. There was still nothing out here. "Home?" He asked, hoping that she would agree and he could lay down and read a nice book. It would help him take his mind off the day he had today.

Verena finally finished her food. She got up and collected the plates on the table so that she could wash them. She needed to clean the entire kitchen, so she was going to start with that. Both her and Mathias heard the phone vibrate. He didn't say anything so she was curious to what was going on. "What is it?" she asked, as she was cleaning up the entire kitchen.

Lucio explained how the hunters would still be after Vera even if her name was not attached to the murder. That much Jakub figured. His main concern was keeping him off her back, which he agreed to do. He also agreed to give Mathias protection. That was also a good. The wolf really had absolutely nothing to do with this mess, but that fact that he was with Vera alone was enough to get him in trouble with the hunters, which is why he needed protection. Jake didn't expect the demon to agree so easily, which worried him. "Now for you. You must agree to be at my beck and call. Whenever I need you to do something, you must do it without question. I will not force you to live here as I did in the past until I find out you are planning to betray me. Once I figure it out, I will lock you up in the basement, kill Verena, and her wolf." So that was it. He wanted to have control over Jakub like he did in the past. Someone, deep down, Jake expected him to ask for something along those lines. The thought alone of being at Lucio's beck and call made him want to puke, but it didn't scare him. Not one bit. "Deal" he said as he got to his feet, completely ignoring the other's hand. "But I need a down payment". If he was going to act as the other's slave, he needed some sort of proof that he was good on his word. Trust was completely out the window.

Eli seemed to be thinking the same thing. He wanted to go home. There was absolutely nothing going on tonight. Elie nodded, but kept a firm hand on her weapon. Now that the alart was lifted, demons would start coming back out into the street. Elie wouldn't be surprised if they ran into one on the way home. Regardless, her patrol time wasn't up quite yet. She still had about half an hour. "Let's take the long way" she said, hoping it would be enough to help her finish her time. She almost hope they'd run into a demon or two. What was the fun of hunting if she didn't get to use her gun? "LLet's go, and don't let your guard down" she said as she realized the streets were slowly coming back to life.

Mathias stood up, deciding to let Vera read the message for herself. He placed the phone in front of her face and smiled slightly. "I guess they gave up" he stated before putting the phone back in his pocket. Luckily Jakub was smart. He wouldn't do anything that would get him into more trouble. Matt leaned against the counter as he watched his girlfriend and began to wonder. How long would they have to live like this? Why hadn't the hunters caught the real killer already? Of course, Jakub and Verena had done much more than just kill that hunter, but getting that off of the record would be a big help. Without realizing it, a frown had spread across Matt's face. He hated the fact that his girlfriend and her best friend had to hide all the time all because of something someone else did. Matt had no idea who had done this to them, but now he was determined to find out. "Hey Vee..." he said in an almost shy tone, hoping she wouldn't get mad at him for asking. "Who did kill that hunter?". Matt fully believed that it wasn't either of them, but he still needed to know.

Lucio was hoping that Jakub would just shake his hand to accept the deal, but he completely ignored it. "Deal" The demon dropped his and accepted the verbal consent. Now he was expecting the blue eyed demon to get up and leave, but he was expecting some kind of down payment. It was just for assurance that he would keep up his end of the deal. Jakub should have known better by now that he never lies about his word. His word is law. But if he needed proof then he would show it to him. Digging around in his pocket, he pulled out his cellphone. He dialed three numbers and let it ring. He even put the phone on speaker to emphasize that he wasn't a liar. "Hello." the voice on the end of the end of the phone was deep and clearly belonged to a human. "Kevin. I need hunter protection for a supernatural creature." Kevin was a hunter that Lucio had managed to manipulate. He knows the in and outs of the society because of him. That was how he got the hunters to know about when Sting and Berserk were out of hiding. "Which one?" "Mathias Gail. He is to not be arrested for any chargers. Understood?" "Yes, sir." Lucio hung up the phone and put it back in his pocket. "I will need more time to work on Verena's. But it will be done." The demon promised. Lucio stood up and walked around Jakub to put his tea cup in the sink.

Elias agreed to take the long way home. She still had to finish the rest of the patrol and since it was her turn. Eli wasn't going to leave her, so he was stuck on patrol as well. And he still had to patrol tomorrow. He was definitely bringing a book to keep himself entertained. Eliana told him to keep a hand on his weapon and he just nodded. He didn't really have too. Nothing too deadly would be out tonight. Though the streets were coming alive. This might get interesting. As they rounded a corner, he heard a muffled scream. At first he thought it was nothing, but then he heard it again. Eli immediately withdrew his gun and gestured for Eliana to run with him. He took off towards the sound.

Verena stopped cleaning for a moment to read what the message said. It was clear. Sting made it home without being caught. She was happy that he was safe. Without him she might have gone insane. Of course she loved Matty and he was everything to her, Jakub was her everything as well. She just wouldn't be whole without him. For a moment there was some silence and the wolf just watched her clean up the kitchen. Then he called to her and she looked at him. "Who did kill that hunter?" Verena wasn't really expecting that question. Jake and Vera had agreed not to tell anyone else about Lucio. The less other people knew about Lucio, the less people he needed to drag into his madness to keep from getting arrested. She did make sure that Mathias understood that Sting and Berserk were not stupid enough to kill such a high ranking hunter. She remembered that day as if it was yesterday and she hated Lucio for it. He ruined everything. Verena hates the fact it was the reason her and Jakub broke up. She hates that she has to hide. She hates that she can't openly kill anyone. Verena wants him dead. But if he is dead, there names would never be cleared. And since her and Sting were such wanted demons, the hunters would never believe that they didn't kill him. Verena hadn't realized that she had just been staring at the dishes she hadn't finished cleaning. Clearing her throat, she redirected her attention at Mathias. "It was a completely different demon. He had shown up to Jake and I's fight unexpectedly. Then Theron showed up and we were ready to surrender. Then the next thing we know, the demon had stabbed him directly in the heart." Verena was so angry with Lucio. "I can't tell you his name, Matty." She didn't want him to know more details than necessary. Just knowing Verena gets him in trouble with hunters and knowing the truth about Lucio gets him in trouble with Lucio.

Jakub watched, or rather listened, as Lucio finished his part of the deal. That was more than enough for him, for now. Of course he fully expected him to hold up the rest of the deal. Of course, Jake would hold up his end regardless of how much he hates it. Lucio stood up and headed to the kitchen. That was Jake's cue to leave. "Don't call me at 3 in the morning when i'm sleeping". That was all he really had to say though he fully knew that Lucio would do something like that. The blue eyed demon turned on his heels and headed for the door, not even bothering to wait for Lucio to come back out. He so desperately wanted Jake to leave earlier, well now he was. Now there was one other thing troubling Jake; how would he tell Verena about this? Or rather, should he even tell her at all? She would not let him go on with the plan. Vera was the only one that knows about what happened between Jakub and Lucio, and she hates his guts. Jake would just have to keep this from reaching her knowledge.

The streets were bustling again. Elie fully expected there to be some sort of incident any minute now, and she was right. She heard the scream along with Eli and they both took off running in the direction it came from. Eliana was expecting to find a demon or even Sting just casually taking another victim, but it was neither. By the looks of it, it was a rogue vampire and a human hostage. Elie immediately pulled her gun out and pointed it at the creature. If there was one good thing Sting could do it was keeping things like this from happening. Of course, he would make up for it by taking lives of his own.

Mathias listened quietly and carefully as Verena explained the situation. It all sounded so fishy. For the demon to show up right then and there, and then kill one of the biggest hunters in history just like that. That had to be planned. Not to mention that Vera didn't want to tell him the demon's name, which could only mean that he's holding this entire situation against them. Matt frowned as he leaned back against the counter. "Alright" he said as he thought for a moment. "At least tell me this" he said as he turned to her. "Why you and Jake? Does he have something against you two?". That had to be it. Pinning a murder of that degree on someone for that long was not pure coincidence.

It was a bloodsucker. Not as fun as Elias thought, but it was good enough. Eliana drew her weapon and the vampire just laughed at them. Out of no where two more vampires appear, clearly bloodthirsty. Now things were getting a bit interesting. The hunter drew his weapon and immediately attempted to shoot one, but the bullet missed because the vampire ran out the way. He came up on Elias and kicked him hard in the chest. Eli got knocked back into the brick wall. Once he recovered the two started to fight. He was really hoping that his twin was gonna be okay with the other one.

Verena felt bad for not being able to tell him much about that night and the demon that is putting them through all this nonsense. If he could be dead, Vera would have just killed him. But she can't and Jakub won't let her. They needed their names cleared first. Then she could rip his head off. That was pretty much the deal she had made with her best friend. "Why you and Jake? Does he have something against you two?" Mathias was getting really curious and Verena really did not want to lie to him. But she had vowed to never talk about what happened between Jakub and Lucio. Even mentioning that it ever happened angered her best friend. But she didn't want to just leave Mathias without any information. She sighed. "I kind of stole Jakub from him. And he hates us both. Or really he hates Jake for leaving and he hates me for being the reason. And that is all I can say because I swore to never talk about it." Vera said.

Jakub walked out of Lucio's apartment with the biggest headache he had ever had in centuries. He let out a lengthy sigh as he settled into his small car. After everything he had been through, he ended up in Lucio's possessive claws. He was very tempted to barge back into his apartment and call off the deal, but he wouldn't Partly because Lucio had already completed part of his deal, but mostly because he was doing this for Vera and Matt more than for himself. At least knowing that Matt would be protected from now on gave him sort sort of piece, but he cringed at the thought of what Lucio could ask of him. Deciding to put all that aside for now, he drove off full speed towards his own apartment. It was time to go back into hiding. The ride home was quiet, mostly because Jakub was lost in thought. HOwever something managed to break through his concentration. There was a scream from near by, by the sounds of it, it was a human. SOmeone was attacking a human girl? Not on his watch. Without hesitation, the demon turned in the direction of the scream. He drove up and came to an abrupt stop to see a group of vampires. But the human girl wasn't alone. There were hunters as well. Great. Just what he needed to end the perfect night.

As soon as Elie drew her weapon the creature laughed. The hunter glared, ready to shoot him in the arm or leg, but two more appeared out of nowhere. So it wasn't just one rogue vampire, but three more appeared. Things were getting interesting, but also dangerous. Rogue vampires were almost as hard to deal with as demons. One of them charged at Eli and Elie almost ran to his rescue, but reminded herself that he could handle his own battles just fine. She had to focus her attention on the others. The one holding the girl was attempting to run, but Eli managed to shoot his leg without hurting the human, However, before she had time to register what was going on, the other charged at her full speed, knocking her to the ground. Things were looking ugly. To top it off, Elie heard a car pull up. She hoped it wasn't more back up or they were in deep shit.

Verena seemed reluctant to talk about this demon character. Did he really have that much power over them? Or maybe she was just protecting him. He hoped that wasn't the case, because Mathias had vowed to protect both her an Jakub. He didn't know how, but he'd always find a way. Vera explained about what happened with the demon. By what she told him, he was Jakub's ex, upset because he left him to be with Verena. But there had to be more to that. Vera clarified that she had sworn not to talk about it and Mathias immediately felt guilty for putting her on the tough spot. He did want to know, but he didn't want her to have to break a promise to her best friend to do so. Matt frowned slightly and ruffled his already messy hair. "I'm sorry" he mumbled "I won't say a word". He was mainly talking about not saying anything to Jakub. The last thing he wanted was for him to be mad at Verena.

Three more vampires showed up on top of the three they had run into. Rogue vampires are monstrous and villainous. Mostly they just didn't care about the life of any human. Including hunters. Eli managed fight off the vampire that had charged at him. The hunter knocked the vampire to the ground and then snapped its neck. Only one was down. And even then the bodies needed to be burned. A vampire was on his sister and he shot it off. But just then another tackled him to the ground, knocking the gun out of his hand. He was getting tired of these dumb supernatural creatures making him lose his gun. Elias punched the vampire in the stomach and managed to get his footing. He back kicked the vampire and heard a car pull up. When he turned to see it, he groaned out loud. He had just lied to Elie about where he was and the person he was really with had just pulled up. The hunter just need to catch a break. Elias grabbed his gun and quickly shot at the vampire still holding the human girl. Though the bullet only grazed him, it was enough for her to be released and to run away. Two vampires started attacking Eli at once. This would be his second time getting beating up, but he was more concerned for his sister. He would not let anything bad happen to her.

Verena felt awful for no being about to tell Mathias anything. She wanted him to know everything, but that would put him in danger and she couldn't have that. If she lost him, she would never recover. But she couldn't break her promise to Jakub. Not about Lucio. Her boyfriend frowned and it just made the demon want to fess up everything. He apologized and agreed not to say a word to Jake. Vera leaned in close and kissed her boyfriend. "Thank you. I'm sorry I can't tell you anything." she said. If this were any other circumstance she would have told him whatever he wanted to know. The demon quickly finished cleaning the kitchen and then directed her attention back to the wolf. She wrapped her arms around him and smiled at him. "Is there anything else you would like to do tonight? We can do anything." she said.

He had just come to help the human girl, the least he wanted to do was run into hunters. Two of them at that. Not to mention the vampires, though those wouldn't be a problem for him. He almost turned and drove away, but something told him to get out. He realized what it was as soon as he did. Eli? How many times was this boy going to get beat up today? He was with someone though, a girl. Very beautiful, and clearly related to him. He assumed they were twins, siblings or if not then very very closely related. With a sigh, he decided to just go for it. The demon went up to the vampire holding the human girl first. Her eyes widened in terror, but he offered her a quick smile. The creature holding her seemed to be in a fix. "Are you going to let her go or am I going to have to kill you?". The vampire didn't hesitate to drop the human girl and flee. Well that was no fun. Once he made sure the girl's wound was covered, he turned slightly, extending his hand towards the vampire that was attacking the female hunter. The snake shot from his hand, wrapping itself around the creature and tossing him against the nearest wall. It took it a few seconds to recover, and Jakub was ready to kick it's ass, but just like the other one he simply fled the scene. Jakub let out a frustrated sigh. He didn't even bother to get the other creature off of Eli. By the time he realized it, he was already gone. "Well that was a letdown" he said as he helped Eli to his feet.

Eliana was beyond confused. When the driver of the car stepped out, it didn't take her two seconds to realize it was a demon. She was convinced he was their back up. Or rather, she was convinced that they were his back up and he was their leader. But much to her surprise, the demon began to fight against the creatures. Well, he didn't do much fighting per say. The vampires just fled. Which wasn't exactly a good thing. They were still running around the streets. Once Elie managed to get up, she noticed the demon walking towards Eli. Out of instinct, she pulled her gun out, fully loaded, ready to blow his brains out. He had probably kicked out the vampires so he could have them to himself. Well now it was two against one and there was nowhere he could go. "Move one inch and i'll blow your brains out" she spat.

Verena apologized for not being able to tell him the full truth but Matt just shook his head. It didn't matter, all that mattered is that she and Jake were safe. For now anyway. And knowing the two of them, they would come up with a plan to bring this demon down. He wasn't worried in the least. Vera walked over and hugged him slightly, asking what he wanted to do. Matt smiled softly and gave her a quick peck. "We're doing whatever you want to do, remember?". He said with a smile. He didn't like getting what he wants as much as he likes giving Verena what she wants. Whatever she wanted to do is what they would do.

When the demon left the car, Elias was completely annoyed. This was not going to be a pretty interaction. In fact, he didn't want this to happen. He wanted Jake to let him and his sister deal with the vampires. But it wasn't like he could tell the demon what to do. He had tried that already earlier on today. As he did before, Jakub helped Eli and Elie out of their sticky situation. The vampires just fled and the human girl managed to get away. Elias picked himself off the ground and grabbed his gun. He put it in his holster as Jakub neared him. The hunter crossed his arms and then he heard the sound of a loaded gun. "Move one inch and i'll blow your brains out" Eliana wasn't kidding either. Eli looked around the demon and shook his head at his sister. "Don't." He didn't explain or even give a look to say why, Elie should not blow his brains out. The demon did just help them live and if he wanted them dead he would have just killed them both no problem. But he was actually harmless. Just annoying. The hunter crossed his arms and redirected his attention towards Jake. "What?" he asked, not even thanking him for saving him and his sister. Which he was thankful and he was kind of happy to see him and his blue eyes again. He was not going to give that away in his face.

Verena liked getting her way. There was just something about it that gave her so much satisfaction. What made it even better was that Mathias loved attending to Vera's every need. Or at least most of them. This made for essentially the perfect couple. The demon, every now and then, would give the wolf the opportunity to do what he want. But he still chose to give Vera the power. She accepted. She placed another soft kiss on his lips. "Well I can think of a few things...." she said, drawing small circles on his back. Between his need wolf pack and her always worry about when she was going to be attacked by some hunter, she was deprived of her wolf. And now that they had some time to kill, she would like have some fun time with Matty.

Jakub wasn't excatly confused. He imagined Eli hadn't mentioned anything to anyone about their meeting today, or the day before. The fact that his sister was pointing a gun at him ready to shoot to kill proved that. He assumed she didn't know who Jake was either, because if she did then Eli would know and this situation would be much worse. The hunter told his sister not to shoot and Jakub smiled. He assumed that was as good of a thank you as he was going to get. "What?". Jake turned back to the hunter, unsure of what he was asking exactly. "What, what? I just saved your life gain and I don't even get a thank you hug?". Jakub was kidding of course, but the woman didn't seem to like his jokes. "Give me a good reason why I shouldn't kill him" Elie demanded. This was something she had to hear. She walked closer, the gun still pointed at Jakub. The demon quickly lifted his hands again. "Wow, hey, i'm harmless. Put that down" he said, backing up a bit. Elie just continued to move forward. "You're a demon, that's reason enough for me to not trust a word you say". Jakub continued to back up until his back hit the wall. "Hold on, just-". Elie continued to move forward, and Jakub saw the perfect protection opportunity. He quickly moved over a few feet and hid behind the safety of her brother, peeking out from behind him to look at her. "Seriously, put that away, that thing is enormous". Elie couldn't believe what she was seeing. A demon hiding behind a hunter for protection. It was official, she was losing her mind. "Seriously?". Her tone was full of disbelief. The blue eyed demon just nodded, his eyes as wide as the full moon. Clearly she had missed something here.

Mathias didn't know what Verena would ask for but he didn't care. Whatever it was, he would give it to her. He loved catering to her every need. It made him feel like a good boyfriend. And Vera loved to be catered to. It was a perfect fit. He waited for her answer, and couldn't help but smile when she did. The circles she drew on his back sent chills through his skin. If she wanted to have some fun then that's exactly what they'd so. "Yes ma'am" he said before placing a soft kiss on her lips.

Jakub had woken up in a rather odd mood. He was tired and hadn't slept very well. Or rather, he didn't sleep. The demon estimated the amount of sleep he got all together was about an hour and a half. Not that demons truly needed sleep, but it always helped his mood. He was up half the night, thinking about how he was going to pull off being Lucio's personal assistant without yanking his hair out, or without Verena finding out. The other half of the night was pent trying to figure out exactly what he was going to do for this date. The demon was still in hiding. He couldn't be walking around in broad daylight, especially with a hunter. In the end, Jake just decided to cook. He was fairly good at it, and sometimes even watched some cooking shows when he was stuck inside with nothing to do. He didn't know exactly how punctual Eli was, but then again, they didn't exactly set a time either. After taking a quick shower, the demon just decided to get started on the food. It was early, but this way he could take his time. Halfway through his cooking, he heard a buzz come from the kitchen counter. He glanced over at his phone to see the message from Eli. He also had one from Vera. He made and mental note to respond to her as soon as he could and didn't even bother to message Eli back. He continued on with his cooking mission. A few minutes later, there was a knock. In the back of his mind, Jake had almost expected the hunter to bail on their plans, but here he was. The demon made his way to the door and smiled slightly at the sight of the hunter. "I'm not going to lie, I didn't think you would actually come" he confessed as he stepped aside to let him inside.

Mathias was having a semi-good day. There wasn't a lot of hard work to do, the pack wasn't too hung over from last night's antics and he was looking forward to going home and spending time with Vera. NOt to mention that he had some cooking to do. WHen he managed to get a small break, he quickly pulled out his phone. He imagined his girlfriend at home, bored and alone, and smiled to himself a bit. She always had to have something to do.Pulling up her contact he decided to send her a message to ease her boredom a bit.
To: Vera
MSG: I know what i'm going to cook for you :)
Matt had been thinking about it all morning. He needed something easy but still delicious. He decided pasta was the best way to go. Putting his phone away, he got back to work. The faster he finished, the faster he could go home.

Eliana was finally out of class. She had been having trouble paying attention, or at least more than usual, all day long. All she could think about was he brother and how he was going to meet a demon. She promised Eli not to worry too much, but that was impossible. Elie didn't know this Jakub guy and she didn't know what his intentions with her brother was. Aside from the fact that he was one of the most dangerous creatures alive, he was probably centuries old and had lived and done just about anything. Meanwhile, this was Eli's first date ever. The thought was unsettling. This demon could corrupt her brother in the blink of an eye. Eli wasn't a kid, or even a teenager, but he doesn't have any experience with people outside of the family, let alone a relationship. The huntress felt awful for having these thoughts, but almost hoped Eli would hate the date enough to never want to be around Jakub again. It would be best that way. On her way to the car she stopped at the sound of her phone buzzing. She pulled it out and immediately smiled as if by instinct.
To: Tim
MSG: Well go take a hike then
She hit send then waited a moment before sending her next message.
To: Tim
MSG: I'm kidding. Count me in!
Elie had gone hiking once or twice just to hike. The other times she had been in the mountains it was for hunting purposes. She wasn't exactly a nature lover, but if a hike meant spending time with Tim then she would gladly volunteer.

Elias wasn't going to lie. He was nervous. He had never gone on date in his life. The hunter had never found anyone interesting enough to allow them alone time. But Jakub had made him laugh. That was a first for him. He usually just reserved his laugh for Eliana and sometimes Isabelle. But this demon had walked into his laugh and done the impossible. He was allowed so alone time. In the back of his mind somewhere, he was expecting Jake to not be here. And to be attacked by a whole bunch of demons. The hunter was ready to fight, but he was really just hoping that this would be an actual date. He didn't want to have to fight in his school clothes. Finally the door opened, revealing a quite handsome blue eyed demon. "I'm not going to lie, I didn't think you would actually come" That thought made sense. The hunter gave a small smile towards Jake as he walked inside. He put his backpack down besides the door. The hunter took in his surroundings. It was weird to be here and not bleeding out on the couch. But he could actually appreciate how homey his apartment looked. Then his senses picked up on the food being made. Eli turned towards the demon. "You cook?" He asked before sitting down on the couch.

Verena didn't get a text back from Jakub. She made a mental note to give him an earful about how he has been neglecting her messages lately. But Matty texted her. He must have realized how bored she was at home. It was absolute torture. She smiled at the message. The demon couldn't wait to watch the wolf cook. It would be a very interesting experience.
[TO] Matty
[MSG] Am I allowed to know or is it a surprise?
Vera looked at the tv and had no idea what was going on. She couldn't do this anymore. The demon turned off the tv and ran upstairs to her room. She quickly changed into jeans and a hoodie. She tied her hair up in a ponytail and texted her boss. The demon was going into work. Though she needed to make sure that she was home before Matty or she would get in trouble. She quickly dashed out the door, trying to keep her head down. The last thing she needed is to be spotted by some hunter.

Eliana replied and he chuckled at her first message and smiled at the second. He was glad that she would join him. He would make sure not to pick a difficult hike, just in case she wasn't used to it. He sent a quick reply.
[TO] Eliana
[MSG] I will meet you outside the college.
The message sent and Timothy left the coffee shop. It wasn't that far from the college. But he took his time getting there. He was trying to think of the hiking trail and how far it away it was. They were definitely going to need his car. But first he was going to pick up Eliana from the college. Then go to his apartment.
