Welcome to Gaia! ::

(O-o No. I didn't know. You didn't tell me! >_< How do I find it? o-o)

The wolf growled as she turned and ran, following her out into the moonlight. He gave a long howl, eyes fixed on Erika, his prey. The wolf didn't rush..it was a game..the hunt..but the need to feed, the gnawing hunger was urging him to go a little faster...

"Damnit! He needs his damned alpha," Damien did indeed know about the Bitten, "Anden will likely try to challenge James for alpha position, but James will beat him easily..he's a Born, and he has experience and a rational mind..both of which Anden is lacking at the moment..and then at least he won't be trying to eat people.."

James would have only just become an alpha, but he wouldn't be a full alpha with full alpha powers..he would have to go to the Wolfkin Council in Ioron to gain that status and the powers that came with it..the best he could do for Anden now would be to beat him into accepting James' dominance in the pack..and make Anden stay put. But a true alpha..well, a true-alpha's command was nearly impossible to resist by one of their pack, amongst other things, like telepathy with each pack member, special powers, and again, this amongst other things. Anden would have to be tested as well, since weak, or wavering wolves couldn't be part of a pack..they had to choose one of their own volition and be strong enough to remain..

Damien hissed as he found himself plummeting towards earth..Anden had tackled Erika down, slavering fangs hovering above her neck as his warm breath went over her.

(Nighty! <3~)

(YAY! I votedness! <3)

Damien yelped, rolling aside and looking to his sister worriedly. "Erika!" Damnit, what a time to be without powers..he wanted to help her, but he was stuck as a damned kitten!

The wolf prepared to bite, and then felt a heavy blow to his side and he went slamming sideways into a tree..he growled, laying there as he tried to determine his opponent.

Roland, with his eyes pure black, lacking in iris or white, leaned down and lifted Erika up, holding her against him tightly. "Are you alright, Erika?" he asked softly.

The wolf's eyes narrowed on the male demon..he growled, baring his fangs a little. Roland, actively using demon magick, was visible as a demon. Whereas normally, his powers and being were hidden, which was why James didn't know Roland was a demon either. He dug his claws into the ground and came at them again, only to be swatted aside by a burst of demonic magick.

Roland held Erika close, flicking his hand when the wolf, no longer Anden in the mental sense, came at them. James? It's Roland..no time to explain..Anden's gone full wolf. Full wolf meaning in both form and mind. You have to beat him into submission so that he'll calm down, he's hunting Erika. Roland used demonic mindspeak abilities to touch James' mind and speak to him telepathically.

Roland cut the link then, keeping an arm around himself and aiming a hand at Anden, blasting him back again. He could stop Anden easily enough..but it would hurt the other fairly badly, and Roland didn't want to do that. Besides, then Anden wouldn't have a reason to acknowledge James as his legitimate alpha, particularly while the other wasn't a Wolfkin Council recognized alpha.. Roland, like Damien, knew quite a bit about wolfkin lore, or werewolves, as those of Earth called them.

"James is on his way..we'll make sure Anden doesn't get hurt.." Too badly.

The wolf growled, getting angry now..but wolves were intelligent creatures, particularly those of the 'were' variety, and the wolf was understanding Roland was not an option..so he prepared to pounce on Damien, thinking to get Roland away from Erika.

"Erika, no!" Roland called out, just as Damien exclaimed the same.

The wolf snarled as she broke away from Roland, changing course and going after Erika..he tackled her down, and wasted no time in raking his claws across her lower throat and chest, from her left shoulder down to her right side, a fatal slash that swelled with her lifeblood. The wolf howled triumphantly, licking the blood and preparing to feed. Wolves didn't normally choose human prey for direct feeding, but the Bitten especially felt the desire to do so their first time, and sometimes the second or third. It was suggested that this was an attempt of their subconscious mind trying to regain some shred of humanity..distorted by the wolf and making them hunger for humans in particular.

Roland's eyes widened as Erika was dealt a mortal wound..she would die..she was only mortal..unless..unless...he made her his demonness...

The wolf stopped, hearing James and looked up at him, bright yellow eyes narrowing as the compulsion to obey came.. James was his creator, he knew that as every Bitten instinctively knew theirs..but James was not a full alpha, and Anden's wolf was too dominant to just take things..no, if he were to accept the Born as his alpha..then the Born had to earn it..

The wolf moved off of Erika, growling lowly and pacing around, eyes not leaving James as he growled before howling and tilting his head in a gesture of challenge.

Roland went over to Erika immediately, lifting her upper torso and cradling her halfly in his arms, his free hand gently on her bleeding stomach..was it the only way to save her? "Erika..Erika, stay away for me..Erika..I love you.." he admitted in an attempt to keep her roused, feeling pain the likes of which he'd not felt in years..not since he'd watched his sister be murdered by humans only a few centuries ago..Roland wasn't sure what to do..if she was made his demonness..there would be no going back..

The wolf howled..and then charged forward, attacking without much strategy..just raw power and the desire to dominate..to hunt..

Roland found his eyes filling with tears at her words. "Erika..Erika!" he cried, as she went unconscious..she was dying in his arms..there was no other way..he just had to hope that she would forgive him..Roland bent his head down and pressed a soft kiss to her lips..one that gained in power as he began the unfortunately painful process of stealing her humanity..and refilling her essence with his own, with a demon's essence..

Nosferu, the Demon Lords of Sin..and now, Erika would be a Demonness Lady of Sin..immortality, heightened senses, powers, flying, control of the Sinferu-the minor personifications of sin, the ability to see the sins of a human heart and control them with them..and a special power, each demon and demonness had one particular power outside of their specific domain. Roland, for instance, could create substantial illusions and make them real with a bit of his own blood.

Roland held her body tightly, knowing that she would be wracked with pain as her body healed and..for a moment, died, before she was reborn as a demonness..his demonness..Bound to him for eternity, his dark queen..his mate..his love. Roland felt the moment the change was done, her human essence locked away within his own demonic essence, and her essence now that of a demon's..no one but the keenest of the breeds would sense that she'd once been human..

Roland held her, looking down at her as he brushed a bit of her hair back, not sure how she would take it..different humans reacted differently. Demons weren't evil on a whole, not anymore than any race was, Roland was definately a good demon though, so there was no reason to think that she'd turn out bad..but he knew how confusing and tempting it could be to have immense power..although he'd been born with it always and had time to control it..but for Erika, it had been suddenly thrust upon her.

Roland pressed a soft kiss to her lips. "Awaken, my love.." he murmured, eyes pure black again after using his powers.
