Chapter 9 -- Confrontation and sanctuary.
When I was younger I had helped out vampires on the run from necromancers with my family. I had even joked once that we were a battered vampire shelter. Vampires truly are necromancer's slaves and chattel out in the world with some few exceptions. They would show up, having heard of us through rumor, at our door. We would take them in.
The coven would train them, my father, brother and I would destroy the control and slavery spells with light energy, being careful not to harm the benign life giving dark energy in their bodies. My sister got to help as well, feeding a little dark energy to those that showed up starving, or helping to heal those that were heavily damaged but didn't have the energy on their own to fix it.
For the most part they moved on a short time later to find their own life. The original 18 in the coven when I was born only grew by a handful over the years. We did it of course, because my father detested the slavery and evil of the necromancers. Plus my mother Stephanie and the rest of the coven lived for passing on the gift of freedom that my father had given them through pure chance on that day Sam was taken.
It was not perfect however. Those few vampires that escaped and couldn't learn to control the thirst and not be monsters without the chain of slavery on their necks, well, we had to put those down. No one liked it but none of us would free and set loose evil upon the world.
It was something I missed, something that felt good to do. So it was with pleasure and surprise when Sara woke me up and said there were two vampires here, ones that had managed to escape because of a poorly phrased order from their necromancer. It was a surprise because they showed up here, at my new home, not back there half way across the country where I grew up.
I was half asleep, my body sore from earlier, so I used light energy to heal and energize my body. I wanted to be alert for this, just in case they attacked when or if I freed them from spells of control. I knew I could never be too careful despite how much power I wielded. If I wasn't ready a vampire could kill me before I blinked.
Sara brought me into the lounge where she left them, Charlie cautiously watching over them. Both protective and defensive, ready for anything. Sara introduced me to Cindy and Tara while Charlie moved to a place where he could better protect us.
Cindy and Tara were absolutely stunning of course. Necromancers picked them that way as the bedroom was always one of the slave duties. I hated to think anything positive about them, but their choice in woman at least, was quite good. Or they would have been stunning if they didn't look like starving pulverized meat wearing rags.
I immediately started to heal them with dark energy before even saying hi, causing them to flinch a little at my wielding of power. Healing with dark energy is different, instead of cleansing and restoring like light energy would, it uses its control of the body to force it to heal at a greatly accelerated speed. That would hurt of course, if I wasn't also using dark energy to numb their bodies at the same time.
I also fed them a bit, so they would not have to fight their natures, I had no idea if they had any control or not, and burning out a necromancer's restriction on their feeding when they were hungry would be... Really stupid.
I smiled and said, "That better? How did you know to come here?"
They both smiled and Cindy said, "Much thanks. We heard rumors that a bunch of vampires that were, shall we say, unselective in their feeding habits disappeared a few months ago from around here. We also heard that one of the children from sanctuary was going to college in California, so instead of running East we decided to give this a chance as it was much closer."
Well that was a plus, even if they couldn't control themselves I could tell they wanted to, didn't crave to hurt and torture people. I also grinned imagining the aunts bragging about their family as they trained and set vamps loose, how else could the rumors and knowledge of our sanctuary spread?
I said, "This won't hurt a bit, but be ready to exert control over your instincts."
I burned the spells out of their body until they read clear dark energy. I smiled at the crystal clear feel of it, no murk built up from evil actions or intentions, like a tall crystal clear glass of cool water on my senses.
I looked to Sara and Charlie and asked, "So, did you want a go at teaching them, or should I port them over to Stephanie?"
Sara replied shaking her head, "I don't think we have what we need, obviously if the rumors spread we will need to buy some equipment for the basement while teaching control. We would need clothes, chains, maybe a cage.
"We also might invite a few of the coven back with us if you want? We don't have to take part in training at all though. We could just free and send, but I admit I miss doing that, helping others of my kind."
I smiled and said, "Whatever you want to do, I missed this part of it, so if I get to help you should be able to as well."
I frowned, "Of course if we open a second sanctuary we will probably be attacked soon. Those assholes don't like it when we free their 'toys'... But do what you need to do to get it ready, and I will send these two on."
Tara said, "If it's too much trouble you could just let us go now that we are free, we won't hurt anyone."
I shook my head. "I know you don't want to hurt anyone but we need to make sure we don't become responsible for any vampires going rogue. It is important to us that as a being you be free and not a slave, but it is equally important that you be in sure control of your instincts."
I ripped a hole in the universe to my old back yard and gestured them through, we followed them through just to make sure they didn't take off. It didn't take long for my father and Stephanie to step out with some of the others. It was continually startling when one of your mothers looked younger than you. Not that I looked old at 21, but there was some maturing there she just didn't and would never have. She still looked like an innocent faced 18 year old.
Dad said, "Been busy?"
I smiled, "Meet Tara and Cindy, they showed up at my door tonight. I got their immediate needs taken care of, but they need training and clothes to replace those rags.
"It looks like knowledge of us having a house by the college is out, which means I will be getting more showing up."
Turning to my mom I said, "Stephanie, we were wondering if maybe some of the coven would join us. It would be hard for just Sara and Charlie to do all the training, plus we could use some help setting up. We also figured out we would probably be attacked soon if rumors are getting out, so having a few more people around wouldn't hurt."
Stephanie nodded thoughtfully and said, "I'll ask, I am sure some would go, or maybe rotate back and forth? They all miss you and Sara, but would have the same problem with us if they went. Plus I don't want to lose any of my girls."
Dad frowned thoughtfully and said, "Sounds good, and I want to place some hooks of my own at your place, maybe Wade should too. That way we can protect each other. Hopefully they don't attack simultaneously."
"Thanks dad," I said. I knew he didn't doubt my ability, just wanted to help like I helped here. He looked like he was doing a bit better, but had a more serious look now to his face than he used to. The mischievous look was dulled. I knew he still missed Nikki badly.
The coven dragged off Cindy and Tara to start their training, I hoped they would do well, they were obviously good people when they were taken, and still seemed to be so.
We headed back home and I let out a squeal when Sara and Charlie picked me up and ran for a bedroom, if I had blinked I would have missed the trip...
My squeal transformed into a low moan when I felt Sara's soft pliant lips against my own. Charlie ran his fingers through my long hair pulling it aside to kiss the back of my neck. I arched my back slightly to tease his growing bulge with my tight little butt while I pulled Sara forward rubbing our breasts together.
My breath picked up at the pleasure I felt from their lips and bodies as we rubbed together. I was caught in a delicious trap between them as they slowly stripped me down. I felt them worship my body as they caressed, kissed, licked and nipped. Their own clothes they removed at full speed, one moment dressed, the next I felt Charlie's hardened member between my cheeks and Sara's naked breasts brushing mine.
I used one hand to cup Sara's neck and deepened our kiss. The other wrapped behind my body as I gripped lightly around his manhood and started stroking. Sara moaned in my mouth and his hardness twitched in my hand as I pleasured it with slow long strokes, occasionally teasing the sensitive bulbous head with my palm as I went up and over then back down with my hand reversed to stroke some more.
