The following Monday Richard came up to Weiss apologizing about the Friday night, and how he had gone overboard. She would have disagreed since he was walking around with tape over his nose but he'd insisted since if he hadn't come over making a fuss or expected anything from that night they would both be fine, and his nose wouldn't be broken.

Two weeks had passed since the incident and the pair fell back into their routine, working, some flirtation and then going home. However for Weiss she had been messaging the mysterious man who'd taken her home that night, she made sure she apologised for the kiss and that it was because she was drunk, and to her relief he said not to worry about it and that he had been too.

Weiss saw her phone notification go off after having her shower, and went over looking. Seeing it had been Lonan.

Lonan:
[Good Morning, hopefully I didn't wake you up : ) I was just wondering if you had time for coffee later?]

She smiled and looked over her schedule, seeing her birthday was coming up this week she sighed, "I'm definitely not telling hm about that one..."

Weiss:
[morning, and no you hadn't woken me I've just come out of the shower. As for the coffee I think I can manage today, I don't seem to be that busy- however things pop up but I'll let you know before so you're not stuck waiting.]

Lonan:
[Okay, I will see you at 2 for coffee then, would you like me to pick you up from the hospital?]

Weiss:
[if you don't mind? It would make things a little easier]

Lonan:
[Of course not, I'll pick you up at 2 x]

Weiss:
[It's a date, I'll see you then x]

Weiss smiled to herself and got her things ready for work, and left for the day excited for her little coffee date with Lonan. Of course, her workday was as busy as it usually is, and come two o'clock she panicked. Rushing down Weiss got changed and went down to the main reception and walked out.

Seeing Lonan she gave a small smile and wave walking over, whilst she wore some shorts and a tank top, he stood there sporting jeans a plain top and a jacket. "Sorry if I'm late it got busy at the end".

Lonan only shook his head and smiled, "I'm glad I was just able to see you again"

This caused Weiss to flush slightly and shake her head, "oh shush you, I'm wearing the same clothes I jogged into work with, not the best attire I'll admit.."

Smiling Lonan opened his car door with a smirk, "well then I guess we will have to go on another date, a proper one where I take you out" he finished he sentence with a wink and Weiss shook her head the blush still present.

Weiss slipped into the car and Lonan closed the door behind her, before getting into his own side. Starting the car and driving off he glanced over to her, "So how's that guys nose- I still say it was a good punch" He chuckled.

Weiss shook her head with a small smile, "He's okay, still walking around with the tape but he'll live, still annoying though that will never change"

"That sucks, sorry you have to put up with that" Lonan gave a small smile looking over before his eyes returned to the road.

"Ah don't be sorry it's the job I love, I don't go there for him, besides I rarely see him because of being on different schedules this week. So, it's been busy, but I have had time to focus and help people without him looming over me..." She sighed. "I'm just glad I can have this coffee break take my mind off things at work and just, spend time with someone"

Lonan smiled listening to her and then it slowly turned into a smirk, "oh ho, so you like me then hmmn?~" His voice held a teasing tone.

Weiss scoffed and poked his arm, "Oh don't flatter yourself, I like your company as a friend"

Lonan brought a hand up to his chest faking pain, though t did sting a little, "Oh no, how could you do that to me, I thought this was looove!"

Both laughed at the drama they had enacted, "we are such a bunch of weirdos Lonan gave a nod but shrugged.

"whilst that is true, I don't see how that is a bad thing. I mean think about it this way, because we are weirdos it means that we are more expressive and more fun we are the party people that makes everyone happy- at least that's true for myself I can't say the same about you- I haven't got to know you that well"

Weiss smiled and leant back, "Well I hadn't thought of it that way but I tell you what that is rather close...y'know what fine, we are weirdos"

Lonan chuckled and pat her head smiling softly, "see isn't that bad, here we are"

Weiss looked out and smiled at the coffee shop, it's one that she had been to a few times and she actually liked it. "I like this place it serves good coffee, that and these amazing little muffins that I love"

Lonan made a mental note about the coffee shop and walked in with her, after they ordered together Lonan paid and simply gave a wink when Weiss looked up pouting, her favourite muffin was the white chocolate and raspberry one, something he noted down for next time.

Sitting down at the table they talked for an hour though it felt shorter in each other's presence. Weiss found out that Lonan was someone who travelled a lot and that he was always on business looking for real estate around the globe. Which surprised her due to his lack of formality in the few times she had seen him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the date Lonan drove Weiss back to the hospital, walking her to the door he smiled, "well I had fun on this little date Weiss, and I hope that maybe we can meet again sometime?"

Weiss smiled and gave a little nod, "I had fun too, and I'd love to go out again with you sometime, I'll text you when I'm free if you'd like?"

Lonan smiled and softly kissed her hand, "I would love that Weiss and look forward to receiving the text" Letting go of her hand he walked back to his car, diving her one last wave before driving off and watching her go back inside with a smile.

Viktor appears in his car and looks over, "How touching, you're flirting with the girl, even going on a date with her"

Lonan sighed and rolled his eyes, "we are to watch over her, like his I can be as close as possible watching her, you're just jealous you didn't think of it first"

Viktor gave a small growl glaring at him, "Need I remind you Lonan that this isn't a game, and that I am an elder and a member of the council, flirting with the girl isn't part of His Orders. And I'm sure he'll be delighted to know that you're doing all that with Weiss-"

Lonan glared back," Whilst you may be an elder it is by a year Viktor, and like I said this is all work, I have been ordered like you to do this and so I will-"

Viktor only laughed at his statement, not even letting him finish, "Rich coming from someone who has imp-"

Lonan growled eyes turning red at Viktor, "Dare finish that and I will make you regret it..."

Viktor smirked, "It seems I have touched a nerve, alright alright, I'll leave it alone, for now that is...because we need to see him, he's called us both in because of the council's decision- which before you pipe up I wasn't involved in, because I had to work with you on this.."

Lonan sighed changing his route, "what could they possibly want now? And so close to her birthday I might add"

Viktor looked over, "I don't know, but it's probably going to be something you don't like- or agree with, because you dislike the council..."

Lonan sighed and went through the barrier, "look its just that sometimes their policies end u having consequences for others- and it's like they don't even care sometimes-"

Viktor rolled his eyes an then smirked as they went past a Fae, "hello~ pretty lady"

Lonan rolled his eyes, "Dream on mister, no Fae go near us you know that, besides, she was way out of your league" he chuckled as hey drove up to the castle.

Driving into the grounds Lonan's vehicle was taken and driven into the garage as they walked in and to the throne room. Both bowed and Viktor joined the four other council members. The king walked in and Lonan bowed once more, "Your highness, what brings for this meeting today?"

The king sighed as he sat atop his throne, "Lonan I have told me before, you may call me Dracula, as for the meeting you both have been summoned here about Weiss. The council has decided that, she is to be brought here before her birthday"

This caused Lonan to frown, "forgive me for speaking freely but why? It was fine before and we were aware of her birthday coming up, why the sudden change?"

One of the council members sighed and spoke up he was the eldest male, "she is becoming of age Lonan, and we thought it was in our best interest to bring her home so that she may claim the throne as Queen"

Lonan sighed rubbing his temples and crossed his arms looking at the five of them, "Okay, so you want to bring her back for her to claim the throne- does this also have anything to do with the fact that she will also be of age to find a suitor? And you want her to find a vampiric mate before she settles on a human?"

A different council member spoke, female this time, "Why we choose to bring the future Queen is none of your concern Lonan, especially if it's to do with a mate-"

Viktor spoke up, it as only a matter of time before he did, "Well it wouldn't matter if he wasn't romantically involved already" his peaked everyone's interest and they bore their stare into Lonan.

Dracula spoke arms now crossed, "Is this so Lonan? Have you imprinted on Weiss?"

Lonan let out a frustrated sigh, "Yes I imprinted on Weiss, but that has nothing to do with this situation, I could care less if Weiss liked me or not, I was instructed to do a job and so I intend to do it"

Viktor smirked, "Okay then, if that's the case we will disregard the dates and closeness you have shared with her, you will be the one to bring her in then...whether she resists or not and you will do so tonight"

Dracula looked over with a slight frown, "Whilst that was not your decision to make Viktor as you too are involved in this discussion I will let it slide, as you have mad e a good point. If you are as uninvolved with Weiss as you say then fine, I will allow this to slide and you will be promoted, possibly becoming a sixth member of the Council- as they could use with someone your calibre on their team, I can see you becoming a great asset."

Lonan gave a small nod out of respect and the council members smiled, they had asked him before but he had declined, however dee down he thought if he joined he might be able to see Weiss again once she became Queen. "then it shall be done, will bring Weiss to you tonight...If there is nothing else to discuss then I would like to leave to prepare for tonight"

Dracula shook his head as did the council members, as he turned to leave Dracula spoke up, "Do try to make it as smooth and harm free as possible, before she regains her memories from Reagan I'd like her to believe we mean her no harm"

Lonan gave a nod and continued to walk forward closing the doors behind him. Once off the castle ground he huffed and drove out the barrier, one hand rubbing his face. "this is going to be a nightmare..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Evening approached and Weiss had finished for the day, however she stayed in her office going through any last-minute work. She always liked to be thorough when it came to this job, that and she had this gut feeling about walking home tonight. 

after half an hour longer she sighed and decided she was being ridiculous, she got changed grabbed her things and walked out the door saying goodnight, she then began jogging home like usual, however she felt someone behind her, so turning around she saw nothing, nobody was there.

Weiss decided to speed up and ran now instead of jogging, however when looking ack she bumped into Lonan, she let out a gasp and a little scream, only to calm down, "Jesus Christ Lonan you scared me!"

Lonan gave an awkward chuckle, "sorry I didn't mean too....you're running pretty fast there are you okay? Is someone after you?" He looked behind her, delaying the inevitable.

Weiss let out a breath panting slightly, "you're going to think I'm crazy but I thought I was being chased by something"

Lonan shook his head, "I don't think you're crazy, who knows what's out there, here let me walk you home...would that be better?"

Weiss shook her head "no no it's okay, I just want to run home and have a shower, besides I don't want to keep you from what you were doing anyway"

Lonan looked at her, "are you sure? I don't mind..." He knew he'd have to result to other ways of taking her- which he wasn't too keen on being honest.

Weiss smiled and gave a nod, "Yeah, besides we're still planned for that date on Thursday, see you later" She smiled and turned jogging again.

However she felt arms wrap around her and a cloth pressed to her mouth, looking she saw Lonan looking at her with guilty eyes, "I'm sorry Princess..." Weiss struggles more breathing in the chemicals on the rag, her vision becoming hazy.

What was he going to do with her? Was she going to be sold? Harvested for human organs or was he a crazy serial killer and she was his next victim, all these thoughts crossed her mind in seconds before she completely passed out, the darkness fading in.
