{Making Amends} Swimming

Mira Nicholas-Archer

*Feeling my mate through our bond, I finish the lap I was swimming and stop at the edge of Lazaro's amazingly beautiful pool and look up at Kellan.* Hey. *Wiping the water out of my eyes* I looked for you earlier, but figured you were with your grandfather.

• 
  

  Kellan Archer *I stood at the edge of the beautiful pool and looked down at my mate. * Yeah, I was with Granddad... He was telling me how glad he is that we came to visit. Asked if we would like to go to the Opera with him tomorrow. I think they will be interpreting La Traviata. Want to go, Mouse?

  Mira Nicholas-Archer Of course I want to go, it's an Italian Opera! *I pull myself up on higher on the ledge* You want to join me? *Wrapping my wet arms around his neck when he bends down to kiss me* It's really nice in here...

  
  
• 
  

  Kellan Archer Yeah, I can see that, babe. I'll go upstairs and put on my swimming suit *I smile down at Mira and lean in to kiss her...*

  
  
• 
  

  Mira Nicholas-Archer *He kisses me softly, my body only a quarter out of the water and his leaning slightly over the pool. I pull away slightly, grinning at him as a wicked idea forms in my head* Now why on earth would you need a swimming suit? *I can see in his narrowed eyes that he has figured out my plan, and before it's too late I pull him forward as hard as I can...right into the pool*

  Kellan Archer *Splash! My mischievous mate pulls me into the pool, fully clothed. I surface quickly grabbing her small waist* Mrs. Archer! I will have to spank your cute ass for this prank, lady!!!

  
  
• 
  

  Mira Nicholas-Archer *I pull myself higher against him and laugh* Payback is a bitch, baby! *I kiss him* I seem to remember you doing it to me when I was a teenager. *Looking down at his soaked clothes* Plus, you're pretty hot all wet. *winking* So, win win for me

  
  
• 
  

  Kellan Archer *I wink at her and remove my shirt, socks, shoes and belt. With a shrug, I toss them out of the pool* Yeah, payback is a bitch. Remember that when I get you across my knee, babe! *Splashing her lightly* Everything is going so well.. I can't thank you enough, Mira. So, I'll tell Granddad that we are good for the Opera tomorrow night.

  Mira Nicholas-Archer *Laughing* If you say so. *Threading my fingers through his wet hair, I watch him as he speaks with such sincerity and love...despite being pulled fully clothed into the pool* I would do anything for you. *leaning in I kiss him again, the drips of water from his wet hair falling on our mingled lips slowly*

  
  
• 
  

  Kellan Archer *Pulling Mira by the waist until there isn't a millimeter of space between our wet bodies, I deepen the kiss until we are a hot tangle of limbs and tongues. I decide that I can't wait a second more to ravish my mate's sinful body and lift her in my arms, carrying her out of the pool. Once out of the water, I somehow find the conviction to end our kiss and throw her on my shoulder, spanking her little butt as promised* Well, Mrs Archer... Retribution time is NOW. *While she giggles and writhes trying to get off my shoulder; I carry her to our room, spanking her sweet ass again to still her*

*Going for a drive after spending some time with Rune. It was brief but, he seemed happy to see me. I'm in no hurry to get home right now, so I pull over and take a breather, just to think.*

{Making Amends} Touring the City

Mira Nicholas-Archer

*Stepping out of the restaurant, stomach full of the most delicious Italian food and my heart full of love for my mate who has gone way above anything I ever imagined on our trip to Italy.* So what's next? I know you have more planned. *I squeeze his hand and step onto the cobblestone street*

  Kellan Archer Hmmm... My mate is stuffed, isn't she? *kisses her tenderly while undoing her long,blonde braid* You have such beautiful hair, Mira... I understand the need to braid it when you are on patrol, or during training. However, tonight we are on a date and I want to see your long, sexy hair loose and flowing... *Smiles* Come let's walk for a while. I want to take you to a beautiful place nearby.

  Kellan Archer *Walking hand in hand, we absorb the cadence of Italian life. Laughs, music, loud talking... I lead my mate to the famous Piazza Di Spagna, and we stop by the Fontana de la Barcaccia* Baby, this fountain here was designed by Bernini himself. Do you see those steps over there? They are called the Spanish Steps, and the church on top is la chiesa della Trinita del Monti, commissioned by the Bourbon kings of Spain... This is a truly beautiful place, I hope you like it.
  

  
  
• Mira Nicholas-Archer Wow. It's amazing. *My unbraided hair flowed in the calm Italian breeze, blowing into my face and eyes.* What did you do, get a sightseeing lesson from your grandfather? *laughing, I link my arm into his and look at the beautiful sights around us.*

  
  
• 
  

  Kellan Archer *When I see Mira laughing; so happy and carefree, I can't resist the urge to frame her face in my hands and kiss her with all the love coursing through my veins. Gods, how I love this female! * Let's go back, baby. It's getting late and you are tired. Tomorrow we can continue our exploration of the Eternal City.

  
  
• 
  

  Mira Nicholas-Archer I'm not tired. *wrapping my arms around his waist, I rest my head on his chest* But we could head back, as much as I like seeing all of this. *looking up at him * I would like to have some alone time with you.

  
  
• 
  

  Kellan Archer *We headed back to the villa in a comfortable silence, holding hands. The villa was quiet, Granddad was probably away on a meeting . It felt strange to have this time alone, with no patrol roster, no training, nothing but the love that we could feel through our blood bond. We climbed the stairs to our room, where we could really enjoy each other without witnesses...*

{London} Tavia meets Nova

Nova Rowan

They had packed it all up, Mathias and her. The shop was nothing more then a empty shell of a former life. What they would do with it however, was something she just wasn't ready to deal with. She needed time, time to figure it out. Just like she needed time to deal with the belonging's. Eddie was adjusting so well, she was afraid to do anything to derail it. Mathiashelped store it all in a empty room in the facility. Time healed all, it seemed so simple. But it was more then anyone should have to deal with. However, it wasn't the worst life had thrown at her and it wouldn't be the last. But as long at she had him, and their trustee side kick in the form of a tough as nails kid, all she could say was Bring It..

  Nova Rowan Mathias had been sent out on a " routine call ", leaving her to sit around with nothing but the air to keep her company. At least she had her clothes back, and her personal belongings. Even some of those she wasn't ready to unpack. " What to do...What to do..." she muttered to herself as she sat at the computer, spinning in circles in the chair. She slowed to a stop infront of his computer, the screen hummed, like a beckon to cure her boredom. Nova moved the mouse and the screen came to life before her. Feeling a bit snoopy, she clicked on the icon that said security. Up popped a screen full of different area's of the building. One in particular caught her attention. The main kitchen area. which for the first time in a few days, she saw something she hadn't yet. A female in the building. A woman, sitting at the table with a papers in front of her, a coffee in hand. Nova had bolted from the chair faster then she realised and was out the door in seconds flat. She stopped a few feet from the door, and smoothed out her clothing, even tucked her hair behind her ear. She had no idea who this woman was, but incase she was important to the order, she didn't want to let Mathias down.

  Tavia Chase *Finishing my paper work from the meetings I had attended this evening, I was sipping my coffee when I heard running up the hall, turning to greet the new comer to the room. I was quite surprised to see the woman thatMathias had brought to the head quarters. Standing up quickly, I smile softly at her* I'm Tavia Chase, I am the diplomat representative for the North America Order *holding out my hand* It is a pleasure to finally meet you.

  Nova Rowan Nova smiled at her, and walked up to the woman slowly. She held her hand out and took hers, shaking it. She looked the woman over, something didn't seem right to her. She scanned her sight down the womans neck, to her arms, then to the hand she shook in hers. Nova turned the hand and looked at her wrist. " Your Breed? I don't understand..Your a woman?" Nova lifted her head and cocked it to the side before looking back at her arm. She gently ran her finger over the markings, " How? " she gasped. " Their beautiful,... I have never seen.." Nova blushed and let Tavia's hand go. " Sorry love, sometimes, I get carried away when it comes to skin.. Kinda a habit from the trade "

  Tavia Chase *Sliding my jacket off, I turn around allowing her to see the glyphs, that ran along my shoulders, across my back, then into the dress I was wearing* It is quite okay, I love your tattoos as well, they are truly beautiful. *Turning back and offering her a seat* To answer your question, yes I am both a Gen-One female and a breedmate. I was created in a lab by a breed male named Dragos, that harbored the last of the ancients, his grandfather. *taking a breath* He was an evil man, he held many breed mates prisoner forcing them to breed with the ancient, then he took their children at birth, raising them to be killing machines. *touching her hand softly* It is okay, he is no longer living. I was raised human, I believed I was sick with an illness and my glyphs were burn marks. My aunt.. I mean Dragos minion who was pretending to be my aunt raised me. I did not know about the breed until I met my mate Sterling. *smiles* I was the eight embryo but the first to live. My real name is Octavia, I have always went by Tavia

  Nova Rowan Nova walked over to the coffee maker and poured herself a cup before taking a seat at the table. " I am sorry to hear that had happened to you, I guess there really is no end to some's ambition and even to the Breed..." Nova ran her thumb over the back of her hand, over the eye tattoo and her own past secret. " I understand more then you know.." She looked up at Tavia and smiled. " My real name is Catriona, but I prefer Nova. Now, Sterling, I have heard Mathias talk much about him. He seems like a good man, they all do. I would very much like to meet everyone....it's just, I am not sure that is a good idea.." She frowned and stared at the coffee infront of her, " What did Mathias tell you.. about me I mean?" she asked, " I'm sorry again.. I am not used to be meeting new people outside of my work, and tend to try to stay in the shadows, let's call that Habit's of the life huh?"

  Tavia Chase *Thinking back to the first time I met Mathias* Mathias was the first breed male I met after Sterling, he helped us when I first discovered what I was. *laughing softly* I will never forget them staring at me in amazement, I was terrified but was glad to finally know why I was different. Your real name is beautiful but Nova is just as wonderful. Sterling was going through a difficult time when we met, blood lust was very hard on him, but together we saved each other. I was poisoned with Crimson, a drug that use to send Breeds into blood lust. It took six months to heal me and I got pregnant with my twins. *Leans forward* He only said that he met his future in you. *smiles softly* By the way, I am also a day walker, my children are as well.

  Nova Rowan Nova's jaw dropped. " Whoa...I didn't know..maybe I didn't want to know.." She smiled. " I bet they are amazing. I have, well, he is not my son, but for better lack of terms, he might as well be. My mentor, my own " father " persay, kinda adopted myself and Eddie. A burly, surly biker type who took in what society called street trash and taught us what it was to really be human. But some Breed Offical, some Justis officer killed him a few days, leaving me to take care of Eddie. I can't tell you how much it means to me, knowing that their are other children in the order. I saw a picture? A little girl with purples eyes? " she asked Tavia. " Please forgive me, it's just, there are reasons, I need to know that he is going to be safe. I can take care of my self, but Eddie.." She smiled. " I bring a bad taste in some of the Breed, a particular family, infact. They would hurt him, just to see me suffer.." she looked at her new friend with a frown. " Mathias says he will protect him with his life, and I trust him, I do..." she trailed off

  Tavia Chase *Sighs softly* All the children are grown now though, that picture would be of Mira, she was adopted by Renata and Niko. They are expecting a little one soon, I told her she better wait until I arrive home. *touches her hand again* I am sorry for your loss, I did have to answer some questions about that incident. Ozzy was rough around the edges but in all honesty everything that I read on him, showed he was an amazing mentor, friend, and father figure. I have seen Eddie running around here, he is a sweet young man, and I would love to call him my nephew. *smiles softly* As you are now my sister and know that Mathias always stands by his word. *Going to the fridge pulling out some ice cream* I think we need a little treat, would you like some?
• Nova Rowan She smiled wide and shook her head up and down. " ok, so how old are your children? oh, and since you are half breed, did you retain your talent?" she asked taking the bowl from Tavia's hand, " Mine honestly sucks, but from my understanding, since I am to take Mathias blood, it will become easier? I get very sick after words, and frankly have avoided using it because it that, but considering who I mated with his job, it will become useful being able to see the last moments of the dead before death..I would like to be helpful to the Order, to him. I doubt very much that they need a tattoo artist on their payroll. Speaking of jobs, your a diplomat, will you stay in Europe much longer? I would like very much if you did, your the only other person other then the team here that I have had a chance to meet." She asked licking the back of her spoon.

  Tavia Chase *Taking a bite of chocolate ice cream* I must say, this is the best ice cream I have ever had! My children are twenty one years old, I have the first female born, her name is Carys and my son is Aric. My talent is photographic memory, I remember everything, I can walk into a room or watch a video and memorize everything. Passwords, codes, and other things. *Thinking about my schedule* Yes I am a diplomat, I worked for a senator before becoming a part of the Order, I am going to be here a few more weeks, I hope that you can make it to Washington, DC. We are so excited that Mathias found a mate and I must say, you are perfect for him. *winks*

  Nova Rowan Nova blushed, " Well If you look at us, I would totally say we bring the vision of opposite attract. Him all proper and professional and well me." She laughed. " Ok, well this is good....OH!!! " she dropped her spoon down in the bowl. " YOUR BREED!!! This is perfect!! He won't let me leave with out a bodyguard. Said I am now a target, " she waved her hands up as if in danger. " I get it I do, but he also lets his grrr side talk for him, and forget I have been a target all my life. I am always going to be a target. So, you can be my bodyguard! I would like so very much to go for a walk, in the Day! And Eddie needs some fresh air " She reached out and grabbed Tavia's hand. " You and I are gonna be like peas and carrots girl. I can tell. " she smiled. A friend, a real friend at last. Things were finally coming into place they way life should be.

  Tavia Chase *Eyes widen and I laugh softly* I am breed, but I am not allowed out with out a body guard as well. I am not a fighter. *hugging her softly* This hybrid is exhausted, I know that you and I will be wonderful friends. We have a fence around the compound, we could go for a walk, as long as we stay with in the area. *Smiles* I have enjoyed this, I needed something new, besides snooty aristocrats and ten thousand questions. *Stretching* How about we go veg out and watch some movies tomorrow. I make a mean popcorn and Eddie can come as well. *whispers* I have the hook up on the movies! *winks* I am thankful that I you ran down the hall to kick my butt tonight. *laughing*
