---

It was a seasonable night for spring. The birds were gone, replaced with creatures of the night. Most people asleep in their beds getting ready for work or play when the sun rose. However in the house of Tiamorre save for the normal maids two were just waking. The ‘mistress’ of the house of the sister of the lady of the house was staying with her love cushion although it could be said he was more or a pin cushion. Her son Damian and her horse Red Hare was also staying. They were at the house of Lee who was owned by said pin I mean love cushion who was actually named Damon. His brother Rhys was also present as was a recent addition Crystina.

That left the house of Tiamorre rather empty but the lady of the house otherwise known as Enigma was fine with that. She loved her sister but she was so loud and her gypsy friend was just as loud. Now that she thought about it her older family members were gone as well which was nice. When everyone got together she could not lie, she had fun, but she still was tired and had a headache afterwards. So here she was wearing her trademark black nightgown as she sat up in her bed. She was trying to think of how to spend the pleasant night. Despite the fact she was always either working or cooped up inside she did enjoy a quick gallop around town or read a book while resting on the windowsill.

With a sigh she knew before she could do anything she needed to get up, take a bath, change into something she could actually walk around in, and despite the nice weather she felt a heaviness to it which meant rain… She enjoyed rain but it made outside out of the question. Although for the hell of it she might just risk it. Just because she had to act proper did not mean her sister got her stubborn streak out of the blue. With a stretch she went to the only one who would be awake at this hour to get her a bath ready. Sure she would love to be like all these other woman who could just do what they wanted but someone always caught her and stopped her goddamn it.

So clearing her throat and knocking on his door she waited for Walter the other pure bred darkling to open the door. He took a moment but the only think that kept her from knocking again was the fact she heard a book shut, a chair scratch against wood, and then foot steps. She supposed Walter was being a bookworm again. Sure he was a butler and a guard but he was always studying and was as Innocence said, a sage of wisdom… He was the bane of her existence when it came to that wisdom. Stupid holidays. She saw the door open. “Ah Walter I ne-” Suddenly the door slammed in her face. She gave a dry blank look. She gave a sigh.

Giving another knock she crossed her arms in frustration. “Walter open the door.” It was silent but then the door opened a crack. “Um yes?” Enigma frowned, “Walter I need you to draw me a bath…” She was not sure but she was sure she heard him give an eep. She knew he was a bit… Shy? When it came to woman he was not really all that brilliant. His downfall was he was so charmingly kind that they all flocked to them and he could not take it and they took that as he just needed to see a little more skin… So of course it just made him over the few years hid. She bit her lip, both to keep an insult and a teasing comment back. However keeping two comments back was to difficult.

“I said to draw me a bath not to join me…” Joking for her was different. She did not have the cheerful tone her sister had and her face almost never had a happy expression on it. Mainly because of all she had seen, the hard work she had to deal with, and the bullshit nobles went through. Father was a bastard indeed… However luckily for her sister she was spared so she was more sunny but due to that well… The door slammed again. For the third time Enigma knocked. “Walter… If you do not draw my bath I will wake all the maids and tell them you want them.” The door opened a crack again. “Oh please do not…”

Enigma placed her hands on her hips. “Then do what I asked. It is not that difficult or maybe I should just do it myself… This is getting old…” She said with a huff. Frustration showing through her cold features. Walter was silent for a moment. “Well no I can do it but can you go somewhere else for a little while…” Enigma gave him a confused look. “Now why would I do that?” Walter frowned, “You are still in your night clothes.” Enigma looked down and rolled her eyes, “Yes I am, that is the reason I am taking a bath… And before you say anything, I am not skipping my bath and no I am not changing into clean clothes and then taking a bath…”

Just as he was going to close the door again she wedged her foot in the door. She gave a wince but then gave a dark, “Walter… I swear what is wrong with you… I just want a bath…” Walter opened the door all the way at noticing his door had slammed on her ankle. “Ah… I am sorry I just…” He went silent. He could not help it. He brushed past her and went to work on doing the bath. Enigma raised her foot and touched it. She sighed. Part of it was bleeding and the rest would surely bruise. Why did it always come to some sort of craziness to make it so he would help her. Last few times she had to trick him and most of the time she just got the maids to do it before they went to sleep risking waiting earlier…

She noticed after being lost in her thoughts that he was standing against the hallway. She went to walk so she could take her bath but she in all her thoughts forgot all about her ankle. She felt her leg give out but gave a good battle in trying to keep her balance, looking like a complete idiot while doing so. Her hair fluttering all around and her arms flailing around as she tried to stay on one leg. Ultimately she just fell flat on her face. She remained motionless in the position she was in before growling, “If you laugh I will kill you…” Walter had found it amusing despite his previous startling discovery of what she was wearing this morning. After a moment he wondered if he should just leave as he remembered what she was wearing.

As if she read his mind she sat up slightly on her elbows, “If you walk away I swear to god I will limp after you and break your legs.” He gave a fearful look and nodded. If there was one person he feared it was her, and if there was a lesser evil it would to stick around. Technically according to all he knew she was not screaming at him to leave due to what she was wearing and she was not the type to do what he hated the most so he just looked at her with a frightened look of sympathy. “Uh Lady Engima…” He was hoping she would have an idea of what to do but… He was not sure if he would be able to do it. He had his own ideas but he did not like any of them.

Enigma was silent for a moment staying true to her name before rolling over and sitting up in a more graceful motion. “Help me to the bathroom. I got this way trying to get a bath and I am going to get that bath…” Walter gave a small sigh, he was afraid that was what she was going to say but guilt won out and his pervious thoughts helped him. “Well… Alright…” He said before helping her stand. Engima started with the typical walking with leaning on someone but it was taking forever. She frowned. “You know by the time I get there the water is going to be freezing…” Walter looked at her confused. “I can fix it if you want.” Enigma shook her head. “Nope. You are going to carry me.” Walter gave a look of surprise.

He had never really touched Enigma before. He had in such things as helping her on and off a horse, the accidental of Richard’s pranks, but nothing like carrying. The glare he earned made him swallow hard and turn to pick her up quickly. He awkwardly continued walking. He noticed despite himself being rather short she was very light. Almost as if she was a ghost. He was glad for that made it less noticeable that he was carrying her. He almost dropped her when she spoke. “Walter… You know I am curious. You always act this way around woman but never my sister. Any reason?”

Walter gave a surprised look, “Innocence? Well… I have no reason to.” Enigma sighed, “You are kidding right? She ripped and still rips all her dresses to dangerously short lengths, dances around like a gypsy, and men stare at her all the time which means the opposite should be terrified I would think.” Walter gave it some thought. “Well I suppose if you put it that way I should be but when she speaks to me it is for me knowledge, she borrowed my clothes so she never showed anything, and it is weird but seemed to just give off an aura of her namesake. She never seemed dangerous in that sense and even more so now. She has Damon.”

Enigma snorted. “That means she is sexually active who is to say she will not jump you?” Walter almost dropped Enigma at the words sexually active but kept his ground. He then sighed, “Are you trying to make me fear her? The way you are talking about her makes me think I should be afraid of her.” Enigma shrugged. “No I just find it amusing that everyone compares us and I am a prude yet you treat me like I am going to jump you when you least expect it. Unless you have a reason for fearing me? I would like to hear it.” Walter froze up a little. “Oh… Aheh well in that case I am glad you are not trying to jump me or make me afraid of your sister.”

Enigma looked up at him, “Walter…” He looked up and that earned his nose a pinch. “Ach!” He said giving a distorted noise of pain. He looked down at her to give a glare but then remembered but before he could look away she took hold of his nose. “Well? You avoided the question, so what if you are happy about those things. Tell me. Why are you so afraid of me?” Walter who kept walking was trying to think of a way out of answering the question got his savior as he slammed right into the bathroom door. Luckily for Enigma his arms were what got slammed and he did not drop her but she gave him a glare and let him go. “I am not done with you… Stay outside the door.”

Walter did not want to but he did anyways. Sliding down the wall and sitting down. Enigma nursed her wounded foot in the luckily still warm water before focusing actually bathing. After she was done she took a drying cloth and with effort leaned against the bath. Now wrapped she crossed her arms. “Walter.” At silence she was going to call again but she heard a soft, “Yes?” She rolled her eyes. “I need help to my room.” She heard silence again. “I am decent as I can be so hurry up it is cold.” At that it took a moment longer but then he opened the door. She was surprised when he had his jacket off. She tilted her head.

“What are you doing?” He gave a sheepish look. “You said you were cold.” Enigma was not sure what to make of the gesture but looked down. “I am not… That… Achoo!” She had been standing around waiting for him to get his ass in here so she was cold but she was still had pride so it could not be seen how cold she was. She felt his jacket go on her shoulders before she was picked up again. She pouted. She had not exactly planned on being treated like a child but it was better then dealing with a man who was acting like one. Reaching her room she was placed near her dresser and noticed that she had no clean clothes. “Ah! The maids… Is this some type of prank or laziness!” She said showing some anger.

She normally never did but after the battle to get a simple battle, her ankle throbbing, her freezing skin… This was turning into a day to just go to sleep. She then remembered what Walter said. “Ah! Can I borrow some of your clothes!” Walter was taken off guard before giving a numb nod of his head. He returned back to his room and placed her down before getting some clothes he normally let Innocence borrow before thinking about the question Enigma had asked. She had almost seemed like Innocence a moment earlier. Yet… There was a reason he was afraid of her. It did not matter if Enigma truly was a prude if his own thoughts kept plaguing him.

Turning around he handed Enigma some neatly clean folded clothes. Enigma gave a blank look which made him nervous. “Uh is something wrong.” Not sure if she did not like them or maybe because she saw Innocence wear them and was angry because of that. She pouted which took him off guard, “They always rush to do your laundry…” With a sigh she took the clothes. She looked up at him as he was still taken off guard. “Oh now you stare at me?” She said as he turned red and turned on his heel so she could get dressed. Unlike Innocence who was different measurement wise the clothes did not fit as perfectly.

When Walter turned around at Enigma’s alright he figured it would be fine but nearly fell on his ass. The sleeves were a little to long just missing the mark in hiding her arms, having her longer fingers peeking out. Her shoulders were exposed ever so slightly despite the collar being buttoned all the way. The pants covered her feet like the sleeves, and it looked rather cute which was not a word he would use for her but the worst part was the fact her chest was straining the shirt. Innocence had a chest, not that he gave it thought, but… This was bad. He gave a weak smile, “Uh… So are you alright to go?” Wanting her to leave so he could jump headfirst into a lake.

She gave him a blank look. “No I still cannot walk… Anyways I planned on reading and Innocence always says you are entertaining. So show me what she is talking about. Also you still have not answered me.” At his freaked out expression she smiled, “I have not forgotten.” Walter was silent and Enigma sighed. “Well I never did anything to scare you but I guess if I am not going to get an answer I might as well get one for myself.” Walter did not like the sound of that and gave a worried look which switched quickly back to freaked out when he saw what she meant. She started to unbutton the shirt with a blank expression. After looking both ways in a flailing motion he knew he could not run.

This was his room and she was the lady of the house who could not walk… She would haunt his room if he did not do something quick. With his quick agility he went over and grabbed her wrists and pinned them behind her. “I uh… Please do not do that.” Enigma looked up at him, “Then tell me.” He shook his head with his eyes closed, much like a child. She sighed and wrapped her legs around his waist getting an actual eep out of him. She was trying and after catching him off guard succeeded in getting her arms free when his hands went to her legs to get them off him. She then used her hands which were now knuckled to grind them into his temples.

“Tell me!” He finally gave a most serious answer, “No!” He was not acting like a child anymore and she picked up on that. It seemed by acting like a child herself she won out. He had noticed her acting like a child and it had surprised her and he had not noticed his own behavior change. “Teeeeell me!!” He frowned, “No!” She after a moment frowned, “Tell me before I do something else!” He did not like the sound of that but held his ground, “Nommmmp!” Knowing what he was going to say she had taking the hands that were grinding his temples and changed it so it grabbed his head so she could kiss him.

Honestly thinks like first kisses and such childish fairytales did not matter to her so while this was suppose to be a more romantic setting she was to busy getting an answer out of her butler to care. “What the… Engima!” He said slipping at her title and giving her a shocked look. She pursed her lips with a smug look on her face, “What? I warned you. Now tell me!” Afraid to say no he just gave her a silent stare but the answer was still in the air. She was now free of his grasp and he had wiggled free of hers. It was a stalemate at this moment but after a moment Enigma got a grin and Walter did not like that. He did not dare as what and it was pointless as he got his answer. She tackled him from her position on his bed onto the floor.

She then proceeded to sit on him. “Tell me!” He with a flustered look spoke again, “N-No!” She shrugged. She then popped one of the buttons to his shirt open. He gave a shocked look. For all the moods and ‘personalities’ he had seen of Enigma this was new. Did she want to know so badly… He would have just told her because it was hardly in his nature to be mean and especially because she especially wanted to know and the statement being afraid sounded so cruel but… The answer was so embarrassing. Although where this was heading made the answer less embarrassing. With every no another button was popped open.

Finally his shirt was open and she then used the remaining tie to pull him up. “Teeeell me.” She said calmly. He just shook his head. Now officially afraid to say no. She rolled her eyes. “Alright well I guess I got my answer.” He gave a confused look. “Well seeing you will not tell me your real reason I think I pretty much scared you shitless. So I got my answer.” She shrugged and went to stand but noticed something that made her eyes widen and she looked down at Walter who was red. After a moment she leaned on him like she had just freshly tackled him. “By chance… Your little secret would not be as childish as you are?”

He just stared at her silently. “My sister, as sexy as people see her as was fine with you and you probably saw her as a little sister. The maids scare you because you have no interest in any of them and they just seem like a mob of stalkers… So what does that make me to you?” Maybe she would get an actual question. After a moment Walter looked down, “If you get off I might tell you.” She smirked, “Sorry it does not work like that. Tell me.” Walter felt a part of his stomach drop, not this again…

[/b]” He just sighed before snapping his eyes shut and feeling a shiver rip up his back. “Tell me. Walter because I think I know already.”

Walter opened one of his purple-blue eyes and gave a look of dread. “T-Then there is no need to keep doing this.” Enigma shrugged before grinning, “Maybe but I want to hear it from you and this is fun.” Walter looked up at her with both eyes filled with dread. He went to say that he would tell but something told him as he gave a twitch in surprise and his eyes snapped shut again that she was enjoying this more then getting the answer to her previous question. Enigma taking advantage of his closed eyes brought her mouth to his ear, “Let me guess…” She smirked as the sudden shiver that gained her, You like me?”

Walter knew he was caught and he might as well just be honest although he was afraid what his answer would do to the dynamics of the household. “…Yes.” He said finally giving in. She gave a giggle which made him open his eyes in surprise he expected a cold turkey stop or a slap or maybe a laugh of hysteria. Instead she had a more cheerful laugh. “I win. You are such a child Walter. That explains everything. Only if you like a prude would you be afraid of them.” Walter pouted, “Well you are not acting like one now…” Enigma noticed he was right before shrugging. “So? I never do this anyways so I am cutting loose. Be happy it is with you.” Walter was not sure if he was happy with that statement.

“So… That means you are going to be cutting loose more?” Enigma gave a devious smile. “Maybe. I guess you will have to be careful when I knock.” Walter gave a look, he expected her cut loose in general, the way she said it gave him that impression. At the look Enigma glared at him and pinched his cheeks. “Hey I am still a prude. I am just saying you might get your little fantasy you child.” Not liking the idea of being thought of a woman of the night of that sense. Walter rubbed his cheeks before noticing Enigma had not made a movement to button shirts up and let him be to ‘fix’ things. She had a smirk.

“Well seeing I got nothing to do thanks to my ankle this inspired an idea…” Walter just stared baffled as she proceeded to continue to unbutton the shirt. He would have tried to stop her but it was pointless at this point and he would be lying if he said he did not want to see. Once her shirt was off he was at a loss as what to do with himself. She helped as with an amused look on her face resumed what she had been doing to get her answer to her question. She had after a moment moved so she could remove this pants. That got a startled response from him. She however shut him up with another kiss. Before he could do much complaining or worrying his mind turned to mush.

She had won again as she had gotten his pants off and was now enjoying teasing him with touches. She was tempted to tease him verbally but she did not want to make it so he would try to wrestle free. She had to admit though his reactions were cute although most men did not enjoy being called cute. She figured that was a touchy subject for him seeing he was not like Damon and able to be skinny and while not on the same level as Rhys was hardly his height or muscular level. She pushed that out of her head as she with a devilish grin gave a lick.

She watched as it caused him to jolt up before slumping back. She had to fight the urge to laugh. He was fun to tease but she never got to and only was able to watch everyone else do it because it was unproper for her to do it. Now she was getting full blood revenge. She however was surprised when she felt herself and the room flip over. Now she was pinned down by a panting Walter who had a interesting look in his eyes. They were darker and held a look she was not used to. Well at least not with Walter, if she had to put a word to it as surprising as it was the word would be lust. It send a shiver down her spine. She gave a smile anyways. “Was it to much?”

She was not having her turn to be surprised as he simply said, “No.” He proceeded to dip down and nip on her ear, trail down to her neck and nibble before piercing her alabaster skin. She gave a gasp which she expected would snap him out of it but he just continued which surprised her more. She figured she just pushed him to far but honestly she did not mind much. What he was doing felt nice that was until he reached her exposed chest and then she began to react similarly to how he had. Twitching and making small noises. She in her foggy mind expected him to just be getting revenge but he continued lower and her eyes widened.

She was about to say something but got cut off by Walter as he gave her a smoldering kiss before resuming. Enigma was stunned silent and got a sense of déjà vu as she remembered she had cut him off. She then although still stunned was no longer silent as she arched her back and began to cry out unable to help herself. Just went she thought she felt like she was going to die he stopped. Although it felt like torture she wanted him to do it again and gave a small noise of disapproval at him stopping. However she gave a noise of surprise when he after sitting up grabbed her hips. In a fury of motion she felt a hot sting of pain and gave a half scream half yelp.

After a moment she notice he had not done anything since. She noticed he was watching her and once she locked eyes with him he moved making her eyes widen. She understood now, granted she was slower then normal, but she understood. She bit back a moan but it rip past her lips when he used his grip on her hips to pick her up and put her in his lap. She grabbed onto him as if her life depended on it and tried to keep from making noise. She was failing at that part. When it came down to it she was a screamer with a dash of moaner. When he shifted again so he was on his back she took a moment to pant but he did not give her much of a break.

She was soon screaming again and despite herself was grinding her hips against his. She felt him licking at where he had bitten her neck among trailing nips down to her collar bone and soon felt herself give a final louder scream. This one would probably bite her in the ass later considering it was so loud but it also was a scream of his name. She then went limp against him in which he simply gave a last lick to where he bit her and remained where he was laying. He was not certain if she noticed yet but if she did it would be better for his lifespan if not he would probably be dead once she did notice. Enigma had been rather guarded since Innocence got pregnant after just once.

After a few minutes of laying on the rather uncomfortable floor, not that he figured Enigma noticed, as she was using him as a pillow. He shifted positions. He picked her up and put her on the bed and sat on the other side with a blank look on his face. He then as an after thought pinched his nose like Enigma always did. It hurt therefore this was not his horrible mind plaguing him. He looked over and saw Enigma looking at him. “Oh uh…” Enigma rolled her eyes before giving a tiny yawn. “So is this why my sister found you so fun?” Walter turned bright red. “Nonononononononononono!!!” Enigma laughed. “Relax I was teasing you.”

She had gotten the picture. “Well anyways I found it rather fun.” She said nonchalantly. She then shifted and got comfortable which surprised Walter who figured she would get dressed after demanding new clothes and leave. “Uh am I to leave?” Enigma glared at him, “No idiot, you are to get comfortable because this is your room, although it would be nice if you got next to me because it is really cold.” Walter gave her a surprised look before sighing with a small smile of confusion. He did not fight her on the issue and just did what she said. He gave a small nose of surprise when she grabbed his arm and put it around her waist before hugging it to her chest.

“You are suppose to keep me warm.” He nodded his head, “Oh okay.” After a moment she giggled, “You are such an idiot.” He sighed, “I try.” She snuggled his arm, “I know. Continue trying. I had fun tonight.” She then soon after fell asleep tired from the argument and game afterwards. He thought he was going to be sleeping frozen in place but found himself melting into position and soon fell asleep. He was not sure if he would feel the wrath later but he was happy right now. He just had to hope that Innocence did not barge in… That would be a disaster…
