Spanktober Prompt #9: Vampire
It had been a couple days since Ezio and Zazi journeyed from the cave and up to the castle of Lady Amaris.
The Lady, the head of the vampires in the area, led her undead army in search of, what she would call, "cuties and beauties." Her lust for blood, while still there, had dwindle millennia ago. She now craved a new, lustful satisfaction. Sending her army of undead to look for any and whoever that piques her interest. Now, the two of them were walking straight into the mouth of the beast.
The two marched up the steep staircase, with rain pouring down on them and lighting zipping across the sky. The loud crack of thunder always startled Zazi, causing them to cling to Ezio with a tight grip.
"Are you sure you wish to do this?" Ezio questioned, having a brief understanding of what may lay before them.
Zazi looked up, their face stern and confident. "Of course! J-just never liked the loud noises." they admitted, their tone become much quieter as their sentence ran on.
Ezio pulled his little fae close, giving them a small peck on their head. "It's okay. I won't let the loud sounds get you."
Zazi knew he was only teasing them, but the sweet, caring words made their heart melt. Ezio always knew what to say to get a reaction out of them, for better or for worst.
As they reached the top of the staircase, they were met with two vampires standing guard outside of the castle doors. Their eyes were a piercing crimson, with their fangs sharp and baring out of their mouth. They snarled; their behavior more animalistic in nature then what was typically expected of the undead bloodsuckers.
Zazi moved behind his master, but Ezio looked on at their movements. His outward demeanor calm, but inside was tense and on alert. It wasn't long until the brainless vampires noticed them and began to hiss.
Ezio squinted, brows low and fist balled up as they began to heat up.
"You got this, Ezzy~" the little one whispered in his ear, giving him an added boost.
The vampires inched close, growling loudly at the two standing in front of them. It wasn't long until they launched into the air, flying towards Ezio and his cowering Zazi. But Ezio stood still in the face of danger. His hands, glowing a bright orange, were ready to set the undead monsters ablaze.
However, before they could reach the two, the castle doors burst open. A thick cloud filtered out, followed by an eerie giggle.
"Now, now, boys. That's no way to treat our guest." A voice came from the smoke. It was smooth; a luscious voice that made the hearts of any beckon to her.
Once the smoked cleared, a woman was revealed from it, Lady Amaris. Her hair a long, silky black going down to the middle of her back. Her eyes a bright yellow and fangs only being seen because of her unsettling grin. She was unlike her vampire armada. No animalistic nature to be seen. Her skin as a pale as a marble slate but smooth and unwrinkled. The perks of being immortal, Ezio assumed.
Her clothing was peculiar. She was sporting a long tunic, black with blood red trims around the top, cuffs, and the fluffy bottom of the tunic. It was unusual for anyone to wear such dresses anymore. It was like she was stuck in another time.
She walked out of her castle, her dress covering her feet made it seem as if she was hovering. The vampires retreated like scared dogs, running back to their own and bowing beside her. The Lady examined the two at her doorstep, licking her plump, red lips at Ezio's sight.
"Well, are you just going to stand there?" the woman asked as she pet her monsters. "Come in! Come in!"
Ezio hesitated for a moment as the vampire twirled, spinning her dress, and walked inside as her pets joined her. The mage reached back and gripped Zazi's hand, squeezing it tight.
"You stick by me. Do not even think about wandering off, understand?" Ezio made himself clear and was met with no argument. Just a nod and clenching to his arms.
They walked in behind, keeping their distance from the woman as they examined the interior. It was like stepping into a time machine. Old paintings scattered across the wall. The floor a clear pristine tile that isn't sold anywhere anymore. A round staircase and dozens of vases that could be treasure in their own right. Zazi had a good feeling about this!
"So, for what reason has the great Ezio Agni popped up at my doorstep?" she asked, to which Ezio tilted his head. "I wasn't aware that you knew of me. I'm honored."
The Lady laughed, bellowing over before turning back to face them. "I know all the mages around, dear boy. Especially the most powerful, and you sure do crack that list!" Amaris explained, to which Ezio showed little reaction. But Zazi did smile at the notion of their master being powerful in his own right compared to those around.
"But, let me give up my coyness! I know you both seek the treasure at that cave, correct?" she revealed, to which Zazi poked their head from around Ezio. "Yes, yes, yes! Is it here?"
Amaris eyes light up like the sun, lean down and staring at the chameleon. Licking her lips once more, causing Zazi to slightly go back behind Ezio.
"Oh! And who is this little one? So cute~" she asked, her tone becoming more whimsical.
"This is my pet, Zazi. Say hello." Ezio introduced to which Zazi waved timidly towards the vampire.
Amaris hummed, examining Zazi all over. "Mm, a fae as a pet. And not just any fae, a chime at that! Such fascinating creatures." she explained, standing back up and sighed.
"Unfortunately for you, revealing where the treasure is without something in return would just be foolish. Wouldn't you say?"
They had been waiting for this, at least Ezio was. "Of course, and what sort of payment were you looking for?" the mage asked, playing coy in his own right.
The Lady grinned, barring her fangs out at them. "Well," she started as she approached them one more time. Getting mere inches from Ezio, but he stayed stagnant. The vampire trailed her cold fingers up the man's little exposed chest showing.
"I feel like it would be a crime if I had two fine mortals in my presence without getting some fun out of them." The Lady pitched the idea, and they both knew what fun she was referring too.
Ezio simply smirked at her request, but it was the pet who sported a pink hue around their body. They couldn't deny that the thought didn't cross their mind when they saw Lady Amaris. She was a stunning woman; her dress didn't hide her perky breasts in the slightest. The tunic hugged around her waist, shaping around her sturdy hips. Giving her bottom movement, bouncing each time the vampire took a step.
