Gabe had been neglecting his wife or so someone had suggested, that someone was now down in the dungeon in a very uncomfortable position. Gabe was dressed as if he'd be going out for the evening but this time he wasn't going off on his own. On the bed was a good sized box which held a special gift for his wife, which he truly hoped she would like. He paced as he waited for her to return to their rooms, he'd never been known for his paitience but he was trying at least. He adjusted his collar and his cuffs again and glanced at the clock. "Where the hell is she?" He demanded of the empty room as if it should produce her promptly. He smoothed his hair back again, attempting to look quite polished in his back on black but also hoping he didn't make himself appear 'old'.

She'd woken up annoyed, for some reason she couldn't quite place and had wondered off around the Keep to try and calm herself down. She'd tried to read but couldn't focus on the words... She'd tried her best to be polite to the people she'd passed on her way, but it hadn't come out in the nicest of ways - especially when someone commented that perhaps Gabe's temprement was rubbing off on her. It had sort of clicked then... She was mad at him, of course. How could she not be? Dallas paused, mid-stride and turned, heading back to their rooms. "Are we having company?" She raised an eyebrow as she stepped into the room, closing the door behind her.[/i]

"Did you want to have company?" Gabe asked her as he turned with what might be seen as a shy boyish smile. The brief and charming expression melted away to one that mirrored hers, arched eyebrow and all. "You're... upset..? Perhaps your gift will cheer you up?" He gestured to the box on the bed which held a complete outfit for their evening out, complete with boots, long black skirt with a slit all the way up, and a lovely black and deep red corset, because she loved them and he loved her in them. "I thought.. or rather hoped you might want to go out with me tonight?"

She pouted for a moment before answering. "No... Not unless it's take-away. I just haven't seen you dressed up for a long time." She smiled a little at the box, and then him. "For me? Really? I thought - Never mind." Dallas shook her head and almost bounced over to the bed, lifting the lid carefully. "Oh my..." She looked at him, excitement filling her eyes. "You want to go out? With me? Like, out-out?"

"I haven't had much reason to get dressed up for a long time. You know in the dungeon, being dressed sharp - excuse the pun, isn't really all that important." He teased her with his tone and the playful smile as he watched her like and excited child when she opened her gift. "Do you like it?" He asked as he came up behind her, gently lifting her hair so he could kiss her neck. "I'd be delighted if you wore it tonight.. there is a very special club I would like to take you to." His fingers brushed down her arm like a whisper.

Dallas' fingers curled around the corset slowly, feeling the material between her fingers. "I love it..." She was struggling to stay annoyed, even though it was all his fault... "And I'd love to go out with you." She smiled he touched her, especially as he kissed her. It felt like a lot longer than ten days since... "That feels... lovely. Will you stay? I mean... to help with the laces." It was mostly true... and it was close enough for now.[/color]

Gabe enjoyed watching her discover and enjoy her gifts, he loved to see her happy and was delighted that she was having trouble staying angry with him, he certainly didn't like it when she was mad at him. He had to admit it was fun sometimes to get her riled or watch her fury be unleashed, even on him but it wasn't something he enjoyed as much as he did her affection. He let his fingers brush back up her arms and kissed her neck again, since she'd said it felt lovely. His chuckle was deep and soft as he kept himself nuzzled against her skin. "Of course I'll stay.. you're crazy if you think I wouldn't."

"Maybe if you're good, I might even let you help me take it off again later..." She giggled, her mood was improving quickly, the irritations almost completely gone. "Although crazy might have been right, recently. I don't mean to be, I'm sorry... but can we talk about that? Not now, I mean, later? I need to get dressed..." She smiled, fully and more than she had all week. "Got a date with this really gorgeous Vampire you see." Dallas turned to face him slowly. "And although I don't think he'd mind me going out in just my underwear, he might get a little disappointed if I don't wear his gifts."[/color]

"You know very well that I can't be good.. so I suppose I'll just have to insist you let me take it off you later, anyway." He grinned and slipped his arms around her waist, pulling her up against him. "I hope you know how much I adore you.." His voice was a velvet whisper that caressed as he leaned to kiss her.

"I hope you know that the day you don't adore me, I'll make your life Hell." She laughed. "And not in a good way." She moved her arms around his neck. "Speaking of good... Do I have to be? When we're out tonight?" She pouted playfully, moving a little towards his kiss. "I mean... If you really want me to be good, I could be. Perfectly well behaved... But people might expect that." Dallas giggled softly. "They might even think you'll be better behaved, having your wife with you." She was giving herself ideas, her eyes lighting up mischievously as she looked at him.[/color]

"The day I don't adore you will be the day you cease to be able to influence my life in anyway.. not to worry though, I don't foresee myself ever not caring about you." He tried to assure her that was something she never had to consider and he smiled warmly thinking of her questions about how she should behave. "Mmm you can be anyway you like as long as you listen to me. I like naughty but there are certain behaviors I simply will not tolerate."

"Oui, Mon coeur." She smiled, not bothering to respond to the first part - She'd just remember that comment for now. "Why don't you try and educate me on these behaviours... if you can keep your mind on it... while I dress." As she spoke, her hands moved from around his neck to unzip the front of her shirt, letting it slide off her shoulders and pool on the floor, before she leaned in for another taste of his lips.[/color]
*Mon Coeur = My Heart (French)*

He chuckled dryly at her suggestion and shook his head though he accepted her kiss. he waited to speak until he stepped away, turning his back to her as he fiddled with his sleeve. "No my dear.. that's not how it works at all. If it's in your nature to do these things, then you will.. and if it's not, well you wont and we will both remain very happy and in one piece." His gaze was dark and distant, he was certainly taking her to the right place to be tested so to speak, though that wasn't what tonight was about. He didn't like to even consider that she would act in the manner he most hated - NO! She would not, not his sunshine...

Dallas frowned and sighed softly. "I wish you would tell me what possibility is bothering you." Another zip was tugged down and she stepped out of her skirt, holding up the new one before stepping into it. "Should whatever 'it' is, be bothering me as well?" She ran her fingers over the corset lightly, before putting it around her gently, fastening the front. "Laces, please? ...Should you decide you can bear to... Pieces?!?" Her eyes widened, tossing her hair so she could look at him over her shoulder, one hand either side of her waist holding the back of the corset.[/color]

"If I tell you not to do something and you don't.. I only know that you didn't do it because I told you not to. I won't know that you wouldn't truly do it if perhaps I was not there to see or you thought I wouldn't find out. I'd wonder and it would drive me to do unthinkable things.. possibly to you. Yes. it would be easy if I just said donn't do this my dear. But when it comes to this.. I can't do that." He spoke quietly as he came over to do up her laces. "Yes.. pieces.. do you really think it would be anything less?" He asked with an almost chuckle.

"It must be something truly awful to bring you to that... end." Dallas' eyes closed, her head dropping slightly. "Have I done something wrong already? You can't be tired of me surely... Saying sweet words to entice me outside before coming home alone? You don't wish for things to be the way they were before, do you?" It was still all so new to her... Maybe for him, it had felt like an eternity. "Maybe I should find someone else to tie my laces." She forced distance and cold into her voice, aiming for Icy and detached but not quite sure if she could fake it that well just now - probably not. [/color]

That was exactly the wrong thing to say, for that was precicely what he'd been getting at, the thing he most hated.. wh*res! Hell, he liked wolves with their foul stench and foaming drooling jowls more than he liked wh*res. It was a good thing Dallas no longer needed to breathe as her laces were suddenly pulled so tight they nearly snapped in his fingers. He let go just before ruining the gift, his hand on her waist and the other holding her throat, his snarling voice at her ear. "The day day you find someone else to do your laces is the day I stop adoring you." He promised her, he was very nearly shaking in his anger, he needed to step away or risk hurting her now.

Ah... That's what it was. Should she be offended, that he even thought she could be tempted by anyone else? She hadn't looked at anyone else since they met, let alone since they married, and he expected her to change that much suddenly? "Just a little harder love...." She smiled, suddenly feeling much better. "I do love it when you're all masterful." She whispered. "I would never want anyone else to so much as touch my laces, let alone have anything to do with them. Never, you hear me? Not even if you do get sick of me some day. I'll still be coming to you for my laces fastened." Her hand curled around her waist to rest on his, the other coming up to touch his cheek. "I've never loved anyone enough to marry them before, Gabriel, let alone to give them my life. You've had both from me, and thank you very much, but I do take my wedding vows rather seriously."[/color]

"You suggested it." He nearly growled in her ear but then nuzzled lightly, his anger diminshed by her touch and words but being Gabriel, it could easily flare again in the blink of an eye. "You asked about being naughty.. and then suggested you find someone else for your laces... what am I to think when you say such cruel things to me?" His teeth nipped lightly at her neck, drawing a single drop that he lapped away with a kiss. "I love you so much, the mere suggestion that you might ever even think of leaving me makes me insane!"

"Yes but when I suggested finding someone else for my laces, I meant a female, for that and that only... not as a metaphor for what you're suggesting I meant - I would never mean that, never. You really are the most infuriating man I ever met..." Dallas laughed, relaxing in his arms. "You're thinking I'm capable of such things and all I'm worried about is that maybe you're regretting making me like this, that maybe I wont be so appealing to you if I'm not all sweetness and light any more." [/color]

"You were never -all- sweetness and light, my dear.. just mostly." He found himself smiling, moving his other hand down to her waist and rubbing her side gently. "I am sorry for thinking that, even for a moment.. it's not that I thought you would.. it's that I couldn't tell you not to act that way and later wonder if you would have.. It's not logical. I once killed a woman for coming on to me, it was after I met you and she was supposed to be with a friend of mine but she tried to get my attention anyway.. I tried to warn her.. and she continued to annoy me by trying to seduce me. I had to cut her head off."

"Of course you did my love... Now do you do that to all women who aren't married to you, who try and seduce you, or just the persistent ones?" Ever since the 'I'm a vampire' talk they'd had so long ago, she didn't doubt him when he said he'd done things most people wouldn't. "You realise there's a chance some women will find you attractive at this club and try to seduce you? Even with me there." [/color]

"Just the ones who don't listen when I tell them I'm married and not interested or who annoy me.. I can't really blame them for trying, I am gorgeous and irresistible but once I decline the offer they should go away and not try to convince me to be unfaithful to my wife. I don't like that." He explained with a wave of his hand, indicating how the women should just shoo away from him like they were flies. "If anyone tries to seduce me with you there, I give you permission to hurt them.. I'd rather enjoy watching that."

"New clothes, you're taking me out in public, AND letting me hurt people?" She smiled a little shyly. "Feels like my birthday. Next thing you'll be petting a cute little bunny where people can see you." She teased, relishing in the feeling of his arms around her for a moment before smiling. "Do I get to hurt them in public? Properly hurt them?" Her hand moved to his cheek, Dallas' expression becoming very serious suddenly. "You'll stop me if you have to, wont you? Don't let me... stray too far from myself." That was her new biggest worry... Could she possibly loose herself in these new sensations?[/color]

"Not to fear, I have no urge to pet bunnies unless it's while I'm waiting to toss them into a stew." Gabriel chuckled as he imagined himself in an apron and chefs hat, holding the bunny over a boiling pot. "Hmm yes, you get to hurt them in public, we're going to a very special club, where properly hurtigng them is even encouraged. We just can't wreck the place." He didn't comment on stopping her, he couldn't promise her he'd be able to do something like that since he so enjoyed a bit of good violence himself.

"Mmm, properly hurting them? What's the difference between hurting them and properly hurting them?" She dropped her head to rest on his chest, looking up at him with wide eyes, all innocent looking with a sweet smile. "If I do well tonight, will you take me out again? Or we could just find some pretty thing and a quiet corner and some sharp objects..." She laughed softly. "I wish I hadn't vanished on you, then we could have done this years ago..." She nodded. "We should have done this years ago."[/color]

"We can do whatever you like, my dear." He smiled a little but his gaze was distant, it was probably good that Dallas rested her head against his chest and wouldn't really see his expression. He had missed her terribly and thought her lost to the ripple for two years, it had nearly broken him and certainly had changed him, he was never quite the same after losing her. He tipped down to kiss the top of her head, keeping his arms wrapped firmly around her.

"I'm so sorry, my love." She whispered as he kissed her. "I'm not going anywhere ever again, not without you." She stayed resting against him for a moment before she spoke again. "I really should finish getting dressed. Those lovely boots look so lonely sitting there all alone, and we still haven't tied my corset." She didn't move away from him though, she didn't want to just yet. She liked just being here, in his arms. It didn't feel as though she spent enough time here with him, just like this.[/color]

"Shhh." He hushed her quietly, running his hand over the back of her bare shoulders and kissing the top of her head. He didn't want her to make a promise she might not be able to keep, someone had taken her from him once.. He hated to think it could happen again but he wasn't a complete fool. She changed the subject to her needing to get dressed and it cheered him up, he was happy that she liked her gifts so much. Gabe leaned down to kiss her shoulder and let his hands shift to find her laces again, giving them a little tug. "Well my dear, turn around."

Dallas let out a soft laugh before turning her back to him. "You know, I'm excited. Truly, deeply excited." She could barely stand still, although trying her best for him. "I don't think I've been this excited for something since..." She paused a moment, "Since 'hey babe, wanna marry me before I take over the world?'" [/color]
