W I T H O U T | A | T R A C E He had been sent a letter, by no one he could tell. The letter was not signed, but the page, it's contents were filled through and through. There was no scent for him to sniff out the sender. No return marker. No stamp he recognized. This made Sevanni quite curious, and he couldn't stand not knowing. He made his way into the tavern, it was dark, quiet, and a bit musky for his liking, but this was where the note led him. To some back alley tavern tucked away in Berlin. He had never been to Germany. In fact, he rather hated it now that he thought about it. The stories of the past were fascinating, but he wasn't too keen on remaining here after tonight. He would have to ship it home for sure. The bar keeper nodded in greet, and Sevanni pointed to the tap. He didn't speak a lick of German, but he knew the guy would see what it was he wanted. Sevanni thanked him in plain English, before making his way to a back booth. It was circular, these he liked, and he centered himself whilst setting his beer on the table. He didn't like beer much, but he didn't know how to ask for Jack Daniels in German. Now, he waited......................

Her unbeating heart thumped loudly in her chest as she stood outside the tavern. Looking up at the sign, she knew he was here, she could tell. There were so many things she wanted to say to him. She missed him so dearly that her breath almost became lost in the cold air. Her boots crushed into the snow as she headed for the door. Stretched arm allowing fingers to touch the brass and click the door open. She closed her eyes, hoping that all would go well. She hadn't told him who she was in the letter, and she wanted it to be kept a secret.
He sat in the back, and she smiled to see that he actually showed up. She didn't even know what she was going to say to him at the first moment of speech. Her legs and brain managed to carry her to him. Her weight shiftless on the floor. When she stood there in front of the table, she unwrapped her coat, and took her hat off, able to reveal who she was.
"Long time no see stranger."
Her teeth pearly white, shining brightly as she smiled at him. She couldn't help but blush, it had been such a long, long time.

His beer had been half way gone, his cigar was burning low as it sat there in the ashtray. He hadn't been that early, and this person wasn't by far late. He had simply been bored with nothing to do. When the door opened, he hadn't paid any mind to it, but he did suddenly sense another vampire in the room.
When a shadow cast over the table, Sevanni looked up to see someone taking off their coat and hat. Once her hair had been let down loosely, Sevanni smirked like a smart ass, and leaned back chuckling.
"Well I never thought I would see you again."
He stated briskfully. This was something he didn't expect, but loved it. Sevanni slid out of the booth and stood up to greet her propperly. His lips kissing her cheek before moving into a hug.
"Oh how I missed you. Sit, Tell me how things have been."
He offered, gesturing to the booth. He would sit after her.
"I know after the whole Demitri thing, it just wasn't right traveling without you."
He finished with a saddened face. He had lost her once, he wondered if he was going to lose her again.

Ella suddenly felt warm and tingly when he kissed her cheek. She had missed him ever since she left him, and for even that she felt guilty. She hugged him in return before sitting in the booth. It was rather comfortable for a tavern booth. Not something much expected in Germany.
"There is far too much to discuss. I did make it to the Academy though. Few years back. Taught me so much."
She smiled sweetly, blushing some. A woman came over to offer her a drink, but Ella declined. She wasn't in the mood for alcohol.
"The kids are fine, all grown up of course. But...there is something I wanted to talk to you about."
She paused, her hand reaching over to touch his as they lay on the table. She had been so nervous around him now, and for a good reason. Only, she never felt this way around him before.
"I....I don't quite know how to come out and ask you."
She was being so foolish. There was a time when she could tell him, or ask him anything. It was different now. They were still the same, but it was ages since they had been together.
"I want to do it all over again."
Maybe her words would have confused him, but they had only done one thing together that she could possibly mean.

Sevanni sat straight up, his hands on the table, he nodded and smiled about the children. He was happy that they managed to do what they did, but at a high cost, and Sevanni knew what lay in the future.
When she touched his hand, his eyes shifted downwards, looking back up into her eyes, her sincerity gleaming in the dimness. It finally hit him what she was trying to ask him.
"I guess things must have gotten bad then?"
Before he let her answer, he took hold of her and embraced her in a hug. He was always affectionate with her, but they had never managed to be lovers until years after he turned her. They were married, and she had left. It was the power that drove her. She yearned for it.
"I would accept you willingly always my darling. You are more than welcome to stay with me."
He remembered that he was actually living in the coven house at current. His New York apartment hadn't been lived in for nearly a month. He would have to get special access to allow her within the domicile.
"I will have to pull some strings, but I don't think there will be a problem."
He smiled, fingers running through her beautiful locks. He could smell her hair, and it was wonderful. He couldn't help but think of Aubrey and how she had such an alluring scent. His mind snapped out of it and he let her go from his arms.
"So, what else will you be needing?"
He asked, sitting back into the booth now, finishing the rest of his beer.

"Listen....I already know that they know about them. You know you knew.....you didn't say anything. So why help her, and let her help you?"
She sat back with a confused look on her face. She had no idea that he was so cruel in this way. She had never seen him like this. But she knew, oh yes, she knew. Annabella had been all over Demitri when they lived in India, and she never forgave him for getting so close to Gabriella. She had hoped Sevanni didn't get into it as deep as he did.
"They will kill her you know. I'm sure they already know. If they don't....they will."
It wasn't a threat, but more as a warning, and she daintily crossed her legs before placing her hands in her lap.
"I care about you my love. I don't want to see you die over a mortal whore."
She said the last part sternly. She hated mortals with a cold passion. She hated more that her maker was out consorting with them. Especially when it concerned her own bloodline.
"I need you to make sure they don't get so close. It means everything...."
She paused briefly before speaking again.
"You need to get rid of the mortal. It's the only way."
She knew how he felt about her. She had eyes and ears. Always keeping tabs in the recent months. She also knew that his emotions for her would make him upset with her words.

Sevanni looked at her stunned. How could she have known? No...but it was all making sense. His face became hard and cold, he couldn't help but let his tension build.
"You have no right evading my personal affairs. Annabella is of no concern of yours."
He said low and harsh. He couldn't believe what he was hearing from her lips. He leaned in, hoping she would follow, his whispering was only audible to them.
"She is a mortal who is helping me. Us. The coven. Nothing more. I make her feel as though she can trust me. They can do whatever they want. It doesn't matter."
Some of it was a lie. He actually wanted to take care of her himself.
"Besides."
He began sitting up. Everything is good with the leader. Nothing to do as of yet my dear. And I must insist you watch your tongue, unless you want to go back to lesson ten."
He quirked a brow. She knew what he meant, and he also knew that she didn't want to go through that pain and torture again. She was a masochist, but it wasn't as if she was who she was then, as who she is now.

Ella frowned and sat back in her seat. Sure she slouched now, but she didn't care. She hated being talked to like that. She was always the one bringing the smackdown, but never when it came to Sevanni. Ella sighed before leaning back onto the table.
"I feel like some fun, I think California might do me some good. You know, get an apartment, something."
Her fingernails tapping against the table top. She couldn't get a song out of her head.
"So...can we go?"
Her eyes widened.
"Like, tonight?"
She grinned. Why would he deny her anything. He created her.

Sevanni smirked at her. She always did love to party and cause trouble. He chuckled once before returning her reply.
"If you wish. We may go. Yes."
Sevanni slid out from the circular seat, his arm extended to take her hand. She would more than likely take it in his, and they would leave the tavern together, heading towards California.
"You know, you may be more trouble then your worth."
Sevanni laughed making way towards the street.
