    *Flashback Of A Better Time*

    Bill walked across the long hallway to Kiara's room, as she had retired for the evening, such to many late nights as she said. This was always one of the many disadvantages of working with vampires, and as one was King, it would come with an extra workload. Taking the crisp piece of paper that he twiddled within his fingertips. As his footsteps echoed as they collided with the wooden floor. He now stood outside her bedroom door.

    Taking one last glance at what he had written, he bent down to slide his note underneath the door with a bright smile across his face. Turning his head to glance out of the window, the sky was becoming brighter as the sun broke across the horizon.

    He turned and slowly walked across to his own personal chambers, noting that his guards had delivered his travel coffin. Descending into the travel coffin, he slowly closed the lid. The guards had their orders and now Kiara knew some of what the next two days held for her.

    Closing his eyes as the sun took him to his slumber, awaiting for the new night ahead of him.A Better Time Pizap_10

    Kiara woke rather late for her usual schedule the next day. It was well pass noon. After her shower she noticed a paper right by her door. Picking it up and reading it she smiled. "Bill..." she whispered, wondering what he had planned now. Considering she had a few hours to burn she resumed her work, having much to do still. It wasn't until an hour before sunset that she decided to make herself presentable. Brushing her hair to an acceptable appearance, and putting on a loose purple blouse along with her jeans. The blouse dipped off one shoulder, exposing plenty of her skin whilst still remaining modest.

    Doing one last check of her appearance she left her bedroom and headed down to Bill's office.

    As Bill was of an age now that he could rise just before the sun had fully set. As his home had been set with tempered glass that the rays could not penetrate through to cause him harm.

    He was already sat at his desk in this office, making final adjustments to his schedule for the following week, so that he would be free for the next two days without disruption.

    He had arranged the car to be out front within the next 15 minutes, hoping that Kiara would agree to come away with him, as he would reveal more as they left Bon Temps behind them for the next two nights.

    His attention turned to his office doors as he caught the scent of Kiara, and the sound of her hypnotic heart beat echoed in his ears.

    She stopped at the door and knocked gently. Peeking her head she smiled softly, a lock of stray hair falling along her cheek.

    "You...wanted to see me?" she asked, her voice soft since vampires had extraordinary hearing. She walked into the office, staying by the door. With her relaxed appearance she looked very much like a country girl; a wolf raised to love nature.

    He leaned back in his chair as his eyes followed every single movement that she made, almost as though she were teasing him with her seductive sway of her hips. His fangs threatening to show, were now hid behind the rims of his dry lips.

    "Yes...Did you get my note sweetheart?"

    Leaning forward to his desk as he raised the crystal glass of blood to his lips, hoping that the blood was calm some of his emotions that seemed to hanging over him like a sharp knife.

    She nodded "Yes... I am curious as to what you have planned" she said with a soft smile.

    As usual, she hadn't worn any sort of perfume, such things even in small doses were far too overwhelming for a vampire's nose. No jewelry either, she wasn't an overly fancy woman. Only her navel piercing whose outline was somewhat visible beneath her blouse could be seen. Her boots made soft clicking noise as she approached the desk.

    "I have taken the liberty to clear your schedule for the next two days. That's if it is alright with you sweetheart. I have something planned for you, well us. And i would hope that you would agree to this?"

    Bill stood up from his desk, straightening his attire from any visible creases that lay across his usual black jacket and crisp white shirt and dark black trousers. He walked around it so that he was sat on the edge, facing Kiara, reaching to take her hand into his, raising it so that his lips left a soft chaste kiss upon her soft and silky skin.

    She smiled "A few days off? sounds like fun" she said, taking a few steps closer towards him.

    "What is it you have planned for us?" she asked softly. It felt strange, referring to themselves as "us". It was both scandalous, in the sense that dating the vampire king of Louisiana was dangerous for any non vampire, and both thrilling to know that he felt the same way, not claiming her as property but as a lover.

    "Now that would ruin the surprise sweetheart. All I need to know is that you trust me"

    Bill cradled her face in his hands and he captured her lips with his, wrapping his arms around her tiny waist. Only to be interrupted by a knock at the office door.

    He reluctantly pulled his lips away from hers.

    "Enter"

    One of his many security guards entered and bowed swiftly to Bill and Kiara.

    "Your travel coffin has been secured and the car is waiting for your departure, your majesty"

    "Thank you. That will be all"

    "Yes sir"

    The guard nodded, leaving the room with the door ajar. Bill turned back to looking at his lover.

    "Do you...trust me?"

    She bushed before his cool lips sealed along hers. She was JUST starting to get into the kiss, with her hands on his shoulders before the knock came.

    With a blush she pulled away from his lips, biting her own lower lip before blinking at what the guard said. Travel coffin? car? clearly they were going somewhere, but now that she thought about it, perhaps a few days away from Bon Temp would do her some good.

    At his question she smiled softly. "Yes Bill...I do trust you"

    He smiled as she had trusted him, a smile crept across his face as he wrapped his hand around her's, letting their fingers intertwine.

    "Then we shall take our leave...I had someone pack for you. All that you will need for this trip. As I hope you will find very pleasurable"

    He smiled as he took the lead to lead her out of the office towards the main entrance. The doors already open, the night was dry and warm, not a sound to be heard.

    Outside, parked on the driveway was a very long black Limo, a man dressed in a driver's attire with a black top hat, holding open the door waiting for them to arrive

    She nodded and smiled. Waking hand in hand with him she couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of the limo.

    "You don't do anything half-assed do you Bill?" she teased as she bent over to get inside, scooting back on the plush leather seats and taking a spot near a window.

    The interior of the limo was large, with chilled drinks and classical music playing softly in the background.

    "If you are going to do it, you must do it right. Is that not what humans say?"

    He chuckled and watched as she slid into the limo, bending over seductively, himself fighting back the urge to keep himself in a proper manner.

    He slid in next to her as the driver closed the door behind him, and then returning to the driver's seat.

    "Everything is prepped and ready your majesty"

    "Thank you Williams"

    Bill nodded as Williams started the engine and pulled the limo out of his driveway to begin the first leg of their journey.

    She crossed her legs and leaned back. Frankly she couldn't remember the last time she had a night where she wasn't sorting through papers, calling in orders or just working in general. Kinda sad really.

    "So... where is it you're taking me my King?" she asked, her voice low, a delicious purr that he would hear quite clearly despite the sounds of the car or the music.

    "The element of surprise is best waited my dear. I would like you to remember this. As will I"

    He smirked and pulled out his cell, flipping it open to dial a few keys as vampiric speed. Once he was finished, he returned his cell to his coat pocket. He glanced out of the window to look at the scenery passing before him, before pressing a button.

    "What is our ETA?" He asked in an authority voice.

    "Twenty minutes your majesty"

    "Thank you"

    Releasing the button, he pulled out a bottle of vintage champagne that he had stocked for the journey.

    "Would you care for a glass sweetheart?"

    She chuckled "So mysterious... very well then" she said before looking at the bottle of champagne. She gaped a bit at the date before blinking.

    "Um sure, I could use a glass" she said. Well, clearly this wasn't like her own vacations where her drink of choice was a cheap mocha.

    He pulled out a crystal chute from a small cabinet by his feet. Uncorking the champagne bottle, letting the fizz settle, he poured the liquid into the glass to the rim before handing it to Kiara. Turning to collect another chute, he poured himself a Royal blend.

    "I hope that you are not afraid of heights sweetheart"

    Leaving that as another innuendo for her to try to work out their next destination.

    She smiled, taking the glass and taking a small sip before quirking a brow at his statement.

    "Heights eh? Never been afraid of them... I was raised quite high up a mountain, climbing trees, rock faces and zip lining from place to place"

    He smiled, hoping that she wasn't afraid of heights was the answer he expected. He took her hand into his, letting his finger tips trail in a feather like touch across her skin.

    "Well i hope that if everything goes according to plan, then we shall be there before sunrise"

    He only wished he could hear her mind for just a moment to know what she was thinking.

    She chuckled. "Afraid I'll see you just fall asleep in the car?" she teased, wiggling her eyebrows in a suggestive way.

    She took another sip of the champagne before setting the glass down on small table inside the limo.

    He grinned, and let his hand grip onto her inner thigh.

    "I have a travel coffin in back, so I will not be at danger from sun expose my dear....and you will have a room to yourself til i arise"

    "Your majesty....We will be arriving in two minutes"

    "Thank you Williams"

    Bill turned to smile at her, whilst holding his hand onto her inner thigh.

    "It seems we have reached our next checkpoint"

    She smiled "Honestly Bill... I do wonder where you're taking me with all this secrecy" she said, leaning in close to him.

    The fact he said he had a travel coffin meant the journey would be far, she wondered if they were going to drive all the way, or perhaps take a plane since he said she would have room to herself.

    The car came to a sudden stop, as he waited as his ears caught the sound of the trunk of the limo being pried open and things taken from it. Several things in which he had packed himself, several surprises that he had in store for Kiara.

    Bill reached to open the door, but the door was opened by Williams.

    "Thank you Williams"

    "Your majesty"

    Bill shifted so that he was now standing on the land strip, the roaring of the engines that filled the night. One of the many perks of King, was unlimited travel options.

    He turned to help Kiara out of the limo, watching as her eyes lit up as the sight of the large jet that stood parked on the tarmac, stairs leading to the door. Several security guards that were stationed around.

    Bill led Kiara towards the stairs that ascended to the jet, listening as the engines roared up ready for take off in a few moments. His guards were following behind them carrying his travel coffin behind them.

    As they entered the jet, which was extravagant, it was almost another world that lived on this plane, another home from home for Bill. The guards deposited the travel coffin in a secure location that could not be exposed by the sun rays. The guards bowed and exited the jet.

    "This is your captain speaking. We shall be ready for take off in a after a few flight primary checks. Welcome aboard Anubis and enjoy your flight"

    She blinked, taken aback by the luxury of the jet. It was more of a mansion than a plane. Plush leather seats, complete with a tv, a breakfast book, a fully equipped bathroom and even an area where a large plush bed was set up.

    "Wow...." she said breathlessly. She then looked at Bill. "You weren't kidding when you said I'd have enough space" she said, having never flown in first class, let alone flown in a private jet.

    He smiled at her as he loved to see and feel that she was happy. He took her hand to give her a quick tour of the facilities that were at her disposal. He particularly paid attention to the large bed that was made up with silk sheets, waiting to be christened. They took their seats as the captain had instructed as the flight was to begin.

    As the plane leveled out and they were able to vacate their seats, Bill leaned over towards Kiara.

    "We should make it before sundown, but if we do not. I want to tell you that where we are going is my own private island. An island so remote that no one knows where it is, the captain has been glamoured to forget the location until i have commanded otherwise. It has been a while since I have been here. I acquired it as King of Louisiana. There is facilities for I until sunset, and the island is yours to explore however you wish. It has been fully stocked with all of your favorite foods, liquids, clothes etc. So you will not need anything. There is a phone, should you require to use it. But i hope that you will not need to, as this is a chance for you to relax"
