Deep in the lower part of the asylum, Savannah awoke laying upon the cold damp straw bed with a silver chain around her ankle that was bolted to the wall.  Not knowing how long she had been there, Savannah slowly climbed to her feet and looks around the cold cell, wrapping her arms around her waist as she shivered in the reminants of what clothes she had on. 

Looking down at her hands, she found herself filthy and bloody from the night of her capture by Victor's thugs dragging her lifeless body to the car.

Savannah remembered back as she fought back as one of the men grabbed her roughly with a sneer, he leaned in and whispered into her ear "what does the boss want with you, Missy? Can't be for your mind bitch other wise you would have not come alone" as he said that her foot connected with his chest over the heart and he fell back upon the ground panting heavily as another thug came around and thumped her in the jaw knocking her out cold.....

Snapping back to reality as she lifted her hand to her jaw, gently massaging the dull ache that was there. How long had she been out cold? Where was she? These questions played around in her mind.

Limping over to the door before the chain stopped her as she peered through the bars. Noticing two guards walking back and forth talking  "The boss is a fool if he can break this bitch." The first spoke with a deep southern accent."He keeps saying  that she is for Armin. Who is this fucking guy anyway?"" he will break her spirit and make her beg to die" He laughed  "Now I wouldn't have minded a piece of her tight ass"

The thug smirked as he licked his rotten teeth. The other thug laughed and shook his head before replying 

" you sick fuck. Do you want to end up with no balls if Armin finds out" 

"It would be worth it as I haven't had a vampire bitch yet. Wonder if she is that rough in bed" the first one laughed then joined by the second.

Savannah gasped as she listened to the thugs speaking of her in a perverse way. Shaking her head and thinking  deeply.

"Can't be true. Do they even know I'm even missing." The silver chain rattled as it burnt the skin on her ankle. Savannah bit into her hand as she rose it to her mouth trying not to cry out in pain.  The guards turned to look at the door, Savannah quickly  moved back to the bed and laid down as one peered through to check upon her.

Tenkai couldn't figure out why this was always happening, why did she have to protect him, knowing she wasn't strong enough, no matter how many times he told her to stay, she always did this. She was stubborn just like her father and he knew that, she was a fighter, and she believed she could do anything. Tenkai couldn't blame her, he would have done the same for her. But why her? Had he not protected her right? Did he say the wrong words? Was he too harsh for her? Maybe he was too hard 9n her?

Sitting in chambers in the dark for almost a week now, he was starting to despair, not knowing if he could find her. She was his one and only, the mother of his children, he couldn't let them lose their mother. Then suddenly as he hit the arm of his chair in anger and frustration, he heard what seemed to be loud bangs on the door. He then raised his right hand making the doors open.

"Who is it banging so loud,  like multiple clans are trying to bust in?" Tenkai ordered.

"Sir, I have some news, I wouldnt say its bad..but I have news, new of where Savannah is." Anna said, as Tenkai raised his hand and shut the doors behind Anna.

"Come in and speak." Tenkai ordered.

"But before that, take this, you will need it, you haven't fed in a few years sir." Anna paused as she gave him the nourishment that he needed.

Tenkai then drank everything that was in the flask, trusting Anna, he then dug deep into the bag and found a few things, a sex energy bead, and few other things he needed. "Thank you Anna..you always know how to come in handy...its a good thing I take showers everyday." He said as Anna raised a brow.

"Yeah I was gonna say something but, I thought better on it." She teased, as she walked up to the fire place and starting the fire.

As she started the fire to get the get the the bone deep chilled darkness out of his room. She then walked over to his balcony and windows and opened up his curtains letting the moonlight, for him and his garden. 

"Alright enough with the jokes...tell me what you know Anna." Tenkai ordered as Anna looked over st him.

"Well sir, we got wind that he had her over in LV in some kind of barracks building. It was a bit remote from the casinos. Well of course then we also got wind that he had her in a lot of places so I went to investigate..so you remember the LV information..well that wasn't false persay..they also had some parts of their men in florida so I had the dark arrow men check it out while I checked out Lv. So it turns out, she was in Lv but by the time I got her to her they were already on the move. Now as for the men in florida, guess who is there? None other than armin himself. Turns out they were gonna meet up in Lv and sell Savannah there but, apparently they got spooked. So I course I followed them, and they ended up in an old bunker near the cliff sin pearl harbor. Just a fair warning this place is tightly knit..victor and armin are not easily fooled but, they aren't are all that genius either." She stopped to take a breath and relaxed herself.

"Good work..you were right to do the way you did it..almost had me worried though." He said as he pinched her cheeks and then he went to go get dressed.

"Sir we have yet to finish where are you going?" Anna asked, as Tenkai turned to look at her with an eyebrow raised.

"Uhm to get dressed, I mean we can talk while I get ready right?..I mean you have seen me almost naked when I was captured by the wh as t ever that family was in the basement ..besides you as re like my sister..dont think too much." He said as she turned around.

"Right..uh, since it's not too far from the beach and close up to the cliffs, maybe we could go up through the water?" Anna kinda suggested.

"No because they are expecting that..if this bunker is anything like I think it is..no your right, the bunker is easily enforced from the cliffs..they wont be expecting us to go through the front door, I say we go in through the trees. Hey Anna did you find out exactly where they held her?" Stated as he put on his puffed out pants, and a shirt that lightly clung to him.

"Yeah they have her in one of places near the water, so but it isn't just a bunker sir." She said as Tenkai nodded.

"Yeah it's an old asylum, its abandoned I bet..if it's the one I think it is, the locals have a story on it..the locals think that the evil and angry spirits took over and haunted it..well I wouldnt blame them for that story, after all alot of people died there." Tenkai stated as Anna sighed.

"Sir how do you know this?" Anna asked.

"Let's just say I was there before, I know the area abit and some of the older locals." Tenkai said as he started to put on his hooded duster.

Tenkai grabbed his weapons that he would need, he then put them eq h of the compartments and pockets that they belonged in, in his body. Just as he finished the last of putting his weapons on him, he turned to look at Anna.

"Anna, go get the dark arrow men and follow me, I will go ahead and get a head start, you just get the men and follow when everyone is ready." He ordered as she nodded and did what she was told.

Tenkai appeared over at the balcony ledge and he jumped down, landing on his feet lightly. Tenkai spread his wings and flapped them a big and he was suddenly off. As he flew towards the pearl harbor. He flew for almost a day, as he finally found the place, he sat next to one the trees. Stead of going in by himself, he sat down and let himself recover more energy. 

He sat down slosed his eyes and meditated, allowing energy and life to flow into him, helping as broke through a few ranks. Then just as he w as s finished, he felt the dark Arrows men appear next to him.

"Apologies we are late sir." The second in command said.

"No need, it's a long ways from here, so let's figure out a plan then we will get going." Tenkai said as they nodded.

"How do you wish to proceed?" Anna asked.

"Well, I say we kill as many as we can quietly, using the shadows to our advantage, once we kill all those that we can up here, then we will gather at the door when I do understood?" Tenkai ordered.

"Yes sir." They spoke quietly.

Tenkai got up and then he disappeared, killing off a handful of men quietly. He then moved through the trees and killed off a couple dozen more. Tenkai closed his eyes and felt that most of the men up front were all killed off. So he appeared the front entrance, the men appeared next to him.

As the entered, a few men gasped, as Tenkai sighed and he walked up to them faster than anyone could notice. He killed them off and saw a door. He picked up the bodies and hid them in the closet. He then saw a couple groups of men coming his way. Coming straight at him and the other come at him from his left. He drew the shadows as he disappeared, his men following him, killing them all off. 

Tenkai closed his eye, smelling for her, feeling for her. Then suddenly he could see her an aura of her soul that. A trail that got left behind by her. He went straight, seeing men come af him again he killed then all off.

"Sir, where are you going?" One of his men asked.

"She isn't with the other test groups, she is kept by herself chained..plus I can sense her this way.." He stated quietly as they nodded following.

"Sir we should split up, just to make sure there aren't anymore people." Anna said as he nodded.

He then took half of the men with him, while Anna took the other half, he went and closed his eyes again feeling for her, he could feel her and see the color of the soul essence her soul left behind as he let it into his bottle. 

Savannah laid upon the soft bed asleep and shaking from the cold, her mind fragile. Armin had slowly worn her down over the past few years, beating her and keeping her chained to his bed when she tried to escape.

Remembering one night, when she heard Armin and Victor talking in the office knowing she would hear every word that was said.

"What's the news upon that bitches husband?" Asked Armin as he poured himself a whiskey and sat back upon the chair behind his desk.

Victor sat back upon the couch across the otherwise of the room "Sightings of a search party around the area a few days ago but nothing since...I don't like this Armin one bit..no matter how many times we move these fuckers find us" he growled in anger as his hands balled into tight fists.

"You better prepare to move again this time and search out for more men to add to our security... I will not loose her now that she is mine" Armin demanded

"What is with this bitch that has you so  fucked up in the head" inquired Victor...

Armin got up from his seat and flew at Victor smashing his fist into the nose with a bone crunching crack as the blood poured down over the white suit. Victor grabbed his nose cursing in pain.

"What the fuck?"

"Get the fuck out of here now and never talk ill of her again. Savannah is mine and if I find out you touched her I will fucking end you" Armin growled at him as he stormed into his bedroom and grabbed hold of Savannah by the hair. 

He slapped her face to wake her from her daze.

Tenkai deep in the shadows, listening until they were finished, he came up and quietly killed the rest of the men that were moving around. He then found the level floor that he needed, he suddenly heard water, he closed his eyes and finally he could hear them talking. He followed the voices as his men quietly killed the enemies men. 

"Boss, where to now?" The one man said as they came to a T like corner.

Tenkai pointed right, as they turned, while Tenkai concentrated on the voices, and Savannahs traces that she left behind, his men quietly killed the enemy that got in his way. Tenkai came to a stop, and listened more.

Hearing Armin demands and saying his wife was his, Tenkai growled, letting out an echo. He heard gasps, as Tenkai gave out an echo of his cold dark laugh. This what he has been wanting for years.

Tenkai heard a few slaps, he growled, as his powers began to make the door jiggle a bit, turning it into ashes, "Hello, you have something that belongs to me, just as I may or may not have something of yours." He said coldly.

"Boss, we found something over here..let's just say he might want this." Anna said as Tenkai laughed loudly.

He saw victor, a d he grabbed victor by the kneck as Armin raised his hands up as if he were pretending to surrender. Armin reminded him of someone, he licked his lips as victor struggled to away. Not giving anything chance, he broke the mans neck in once squeeze.

As he broke the mans neck, he threw the mans body against the wall, making it turn to ash. He looked behind Armin and saw his woman, she looked to be in fear, he saw bruises and such all over her. He looked back at Armin, who seemed to be looking fine.

"You are Armin right?" Tenkai said, as his men behind got into position, he held up an arm as one of them went to move.

"Haha, good good, you must be the bitches hus.." He went to say but w as s interrupted by a lightly hard slap to the face.

"Watch your tongue..that woman is worth more than you will ever know." He said as Armin started to look at him with anger.

Tenkai smirked and slapped him again but just a tad bit harder this time. Armin growled a bit, his teeth seemed to be clenched, "you are a lot stronger than you used to be..how is this possible?" 

"Ah who do you think I really am? I'm not just the step son of Alexander, I'm the only one who had ever had the real names of my real parents..do you wish to know why that is?" He said giving out a chuckle without humor.

"Why?" Armin asked slightly.

"Because they are the ruler of all species, my parents rules over everything, and I'm their successor..dont you think that if you found out their real names you might end up dead?" He said, as he walked past Armin.

As he walked past Armin, he moved their out of Savannahs face, "Hey Sweet girl, it's me Tenkai I told you I would always find you My sweet girl.." he said softly as he undid her chains.

Then suddenly he felt an ice weapon coming at him, his eyes became serious, as he turned around after putting up a shield over Savannah and his men. He took a few steps towards the weapon as it began to slowly dissipate and shatter. He suddenly knew who this guy reminded him of.

"Say, you make me think of someone just now, I would say Alexander? The one who killed my aunt or adoptive mother in his harem, a man who killed other clans to own the world but still ended up frozen..so he sends part of himself out to gain more power to send back to himself to get out..one problem with that..is I wont let out of this room." He said as he then grabbed Armin by the neck.

As armin dodged, Tenkai raised a brow, Tenkai pulled out a sword of his but it kinda in need ot some power, he smirked as Armin gasped.

Savannah looked up shaking with fear as she heard her husbands voice, but she wasn't sure if she was dreaming or it had been a trick that Armin had used on many occasions in order to break her mind to make her forget Tenkai. 

Hearing him call her sweet girl, she tried to push herself up and cover her naked form with a dirty grubby sheet "Tenkai, my love. Is it  really you"   as she cowered from him in case it was not real.

Seeing what she thought was Rhage and Wraith along with a few others she hadn't known, who came to her aid. Rhage picked her up gently as she head the bone crushing crash against the wall. 

"my queen don't look, let me get you out of here"  hiding her head into his chest as Rhage grabbed a blanket to cover her up to keep her warm. Nodding his head to his boss as he made his way through the door.

"My sweet girl..its really me, rhage and wraith, get her out of here..thata my order to you two, if anything happens to her, even if she is missing a piece of a strand of her hair, I will do worse than your father would underetand?" He order, giving them deadliest look he could ever give to anyone.

Then he turned gentle towards Savannah, and gave her a kiss from his lips, letting her know it was really him, he then broke the kiss as he felt Armin coming. He moved the hair out of Savannahs eyes, as he poked her nose and let Anya hope on Rhages shoulder. "Belive me now?" He whispered as he kissed her forehead.

Armin came st him again as Tenkai spun and jumped kicking armin right in the chest making fly through the place and thr cliffs. Tenkai jumped as he saw the beach and the water, Tenkai laughed. He then made the ocean rise and fall as he spun. 

He and Armin began to fight it out, Tenkai not holding back, he spun the water hitting armin dead in the chest, making him slide back fast on the sand.

Then suddenly Armin got up and threw a huge ball of ice and sand at him, but the water rose up behind Tenkai and washing it away. Tenkai laughed as Armin growled, Tenkai could see his men watching from the sidelines and cheering him on. 

"Tenkai I will kill you today." Armin said.

"I would love to see you try." The water spoke in a god like voice.

Tenkai's widened, and went back to normal as he smiled, Armin gasped in complete fear. Tenkai just laughed.

"Yo, brother how is the sand going for you down there?" Tenkai asked.

"Oh you know, sand still tends to get in places you never thought it would." Hie brother said, they all laughed, and Armin came at him.

"Say brother, do me a favor and protect Savannah and her people, at least until I'm done school this fool." He said, as the water let a few men out.

"Aye I always got your back." His brother said as the men that walked out of the water surrounded all his men protecting them.

Armin growled running towards him, he looked at Savannah as one of Armins men came towards her and was instantly killed.

Tenkai ran towards him, and had a spear of the water and stabbed if through armins check as Tenkai suck his hand through his chest and ripped the heart right out, then suddenly the body disappeared. Tenkai turned the heart to ash, and his fingers were a bit bloody. 

Tenkai looked kinda monstrous for Savannah so he looked back as his brother who cleaned his hands and magically too the blood out and dried him. 

"Thank you brother.."He started to say, but heard the rest of Armins and Victor's men were killed.

"You missed some." His brother shrugged as Tenkai and the dark arrows men laughed.

"Savannah, come to me, you are safe..Rhage let her down, it's over..let her come to her senses..Savannah, My sweet little Empress..its really me..come here." He spoke softly as he held his hands up, after dropping the weapon. 

His brothers men moved a side as they bowed to her respect of his wife. "We will stay just incase anymore happen to appear, your lady is safe to walk to you." His brother assured them.

Savannah closed her eyes as she felt her loves kiss upon her lips.  Wanting to run and hide from everyone as she watched the fight with Armin and her husband. Pushing herself away from Rhage as he placed her down upon the sand, exhaustion took it out of her and Savannah fell to her knees.

Her stomach heaved from being drugged during her capture , she felt so vulnerable in front of so many people around her. Lifting her head and saw Armin watching her as he smirked maliciously. Linking to her mind "you will never be free of me bitch, maybe in the next lifetime but I swear you will be back begging me to take you back like the whore you are"

She screamed in fear as she saw Tenkai kill Armin, watching the dust fly away upon the breeze.

Hearing her Emperor call to her and asking her to come forward. 

On shaky legs she slowly made her way over, feeling the warm sand between her toes and stood before him before falling to her knees.

​​​

Seeing her in fear, and feeling a bit sick from drugs, and seeing as how she kept falling. He started to walk to wards her. "Okay okay okay, sh sh sh, it is over, look look at Anya there, she wanted to come see you..Anya do me a favor and use your powers to help her up." He said softly as Anya nodded.

Anya ran to her her and grabbed her hand, "Mommie, daddy is really here I promise..Daddy made a promise, so now we have to prove to you Daddy is real, look he killed Armin..the bad guy.." she said with big eyes.

Anya sent healing through her hand and into Savannah, helping Savannah up,"Mommie do you trust me? Daddy said he would never leave me, and look I'm right here next to you see?" The child said.

Tenkai started to walk towards them as his brother kissed off the rest of Armins men. Tenkai met them half way, as he grabbed her before she felt again. Holding onto her, giving her support, Anya hopped onto his shoulder, to keep Savannah feeling some kind of peace in her mind. "The children want to see you, do you trust me sweet girl? I would never put my hands on you, unless it's to comfort you. Savannah you are mine and only mine ..you are special no one can take that from you..remember that sweet girl." He said. As the area had shield around it protecting her.

He kissed her cheek, and moved her hair out of her face, he could see Armin had did some damage using not only physical force but mental and emotional and spiritual. He sighed, realizing he had alot of work to do. He looked down to see her clothes ripped to practically showing she was almost naked, he took off his duster and wrapped it around her carefully as a woman came out of the waters. 

"Your majesty, if you permit it, I would like to give your empress a gift from the mother of the lands of Persia, it said that she is the most beautiful woman, and to get a gift from her means the woman is worth to be an empress." The female said as she bowed to Tenkai.

He nodded as she handed Savannah the outfit, and she took a step back as if Savannah had grabbed it. Tenkai nodded as he grabbed it for her, the material was indeed the best. He took off his duster and raised a hand and it was exchanged from her nast slave clothes to the royalty Persian royalty warrior outfit. 

It wasn't just silk but of also nylon and leather. It showed her body but in such a good way. He then had her hair fixed up, and showing that of an Empress that she so rightly is. 

"There we go, my empress look much well dressed..thank you miss." He said as the woman bowed to them both. He then wrapped his duster back around her and picked her up, kinda like a baby, but he put her against his chest as he waved to his brother. 

"Since you have everything finished, you all go on and we will finish the rest, thank you for saving my people as well..and I will be coming to see you soon for a gift." His brother said as Tenkai nodded and disappeared.

"Sir where are we headed to?" Anna said catching up to him.

"The trucks, we will be going to the trucks, my woman needs to rest, and me running might make her condition worse." He said as Anna nodded and ran up a head to get the trucks ready.

He said the back opened for him, and he got in and let his woman lay on him as he started to heal her. "Savannah, you are everything to me, not just me but your children, I love you just as your children love you, I will remarry you anywhere you wish just as long as you believe me, I will go through heaven and hell for you, I always have and I still will." He said softly as he put her head on his chest and cradled her.

Lost in her own mind as she saw her emperor walking towards her, "He told me, you died. I tried to break free to find you but he always found me, beating me" she said in a soft shaky voice as she felt his arms around her waist.

Savannah tilted her head as she saw the lil girl " I know you lil one, I feel it here in my heart" looking back at him with sad tear streaked eyes as she lifted her hand to his cheek to make sure he was still there and that he was real...."am I dreaming you my love"

Watching the woman walk out of the ocean towards them and him summoning the outfit upon her badly scarred body. She smiled slightly as she ran her fingers through the lil girls hair " I trust you my lil one, but as you can see I'm not feeling to great. My head telling me that this is not real but my heart tells me something else."

"Its real, I promise, you are just mentally tired, now it's time to repair your mental state, just leave the rest to me my sweet Empress." He said as he rubbed his thumb against her cheek.

He held her as he held her, he began to close his eyes healing her mentality giving it life. He took out the dead chilling darkness and gave her light, and he mentally killed her enemies in her mind, so they were no longer there. Seeing her slowly coming to her senses, he opened his eyes again, showing the colors of his eyes that she had come to know so well, ones that Armin had never seen but she had only seen.

"No I didnt die. How can I die?" Tenkai said as he kissed her lips just barely touching her lips. 

He wasn't exactly trying to tease her but, he was trying to do something that would make her believe him, but he knew it wouldnt that easy. This was his woman, he didnt care how long he would wait for her, he had done it before, he would do it again. Suddenly he had a thought, about her reading his mind, so he opened his mind to her, letting her feel through their bond. Letting her gain full support that he was real.

Tenkai let a tear fall down the side of his cheek, he didnt realize it himself but, all he felt was that he couldn't lose her anymore than he already had, if only she could let him as she once had. But he knew she wouldnt, he knew for her and their children he had to be strong.

As he felt the truck going back to LV, where they had been living, he let her relax as he kinda lost himself in small thoughts of his own. Another tear rolled down his left cheek, his hair slightly covering his face, but still revealing enough to where she could see him.

"Papa, it will be okay, she will come around, I promise." Anya said as she leaned against Tenkais arm.

"I know, thank you sweetie." He said wrapped I'm his other arm around his little girl.

Closing her eyes as she leaned against his chest, feeling him in her mind. " you found me my love, I never gave up hope but I had to hide it deep" she reached up and brushed his hair from his face as she looked at him. Her own tears fell upon her cheek "how long was I gone my love"

looking around her home as she sat down on the couch with her knees drawn up to her chest. Feeling the hunger for both blood and food churn and make loud grumbling sounds in her stomach. Holding out her hand to Anya to join her on the couch.

"I  feel strange and can't think right. Armin pumped me full of this drug that keeps my mind from reaching out to you, but he forgot the one night and I tried to reach you....he found out and doubled the dose." Snuggling the lil girl in her arms as she slowly began to feel a little better.

Tenkai looked down at her, seeing tears as she spoke, he wiped those tears away, he would take her home and make it better for her. "Its alright, you did what you had to." He spoke ever so gently and tenderly.

"Mmm, for more than five years." He told her truthfully. As the truck stopped in front of their home.

He got out and carried inside, as the door was opened for him, he took her to the family room and sat on the couch,  He then walked over to the mantle and stood there facing the fire place. 

He could feel her starting to hunger, as Anna came back in and bowed to him. He heard his front door shut, and he turned to look at her, seeing the vampirism take over, as she made time come to a slow. For everyone except for himself and her. 

Seeing her snuggle up to Anya, he made his power exempt from Anya as well. He walked over to her, as he made a slight cut on his wrist. He made his hand ball into fist, and letting blood squeeze out. He stood before her, putting his wrist up to her lips.

"Drink sweet girl, you will need it to heal your injuries." He ordered softly. 

She shook as the hunger rose deep inside of her, letting out low growl  "lil one move please, I can't control this hunger and I don't want to harm you"  watching Anya move away  and seeing him cut his wrist.

The scent of fresh blood rose to her mind as she saw him stand before her with his wrist out in front of him. Savannah grabbed his wrist and sealed her mouth over the cut to drink deeply from him as the warm coppery taste filled her mind and body. Slowly her wounds began to heal up as she gasped at the ones that was made by the silver chain around her wrists and ankles.

sealing the wound to his wrist, she let go of his hand and curled up into a tight ball to sleep and rest from all the strain her body endured over the past five years or so.

Tenkai watched as she took his wrist and drank from him, Anay did as she asked, and stood behind him. Letting her drink from him, also allowed her to trust him more, which was good, after all Armin put her through hell, and Tenkai was going to fix this make her see that she is worthy of love and such else.

Then as Anya appeared on his shoulder, she kissed Tenkais cheek and giggled. "See, I told you she would pull through." 

"Agreed my little princess." He said, as he patted her head.

As Savannah finished feeding from him, he watched as she licked the wound clean and then ball up and started to doze off to rest a bit. He had a maid grab her a blanket, as he picked her up and carried her to their room to sleep without worries. 

As he stood in front of their chamber doors, the guards opened the doors for him as he carried her into their room. He then walked over to the bed and laid her down. As the new blanket was brought in, he covered her up and let her sleep until she felt like waking up.
