Jaelynn punched the wall, putting a hole in it, "I most certainly do not agree with her. Annemarie is a very sweet little girl. With the few hours I've spent with her, I've grown to like her." She growled, looking at the hole, "I'll pay for that."

She paced around the room, her aura seething so intensely, that even if Seth wasn't looking, he could still feel it. "How could she even think like that? She was dead. We all did what she would've wanted. She definitely would not have wanted you to sulk for the rest of your years." She growled again, her eyes glowing brightly with fury.

[Bovice]

"Thank you for saying that." Seth said still not moving. Seth sat up when he heard Jaelynn punch the wall. "Nah don't worry about it Jae." Seth said as he waved his hand. Seth noticed that that was the first time he called her Jae. "Jae please settle down, I'm mad to I mean look at my sink." Seth said leaning over to look in his bathroom. He saw the shattered sink on the floor. "Even when I was with Elizabeth I still cried sometimes because I felt that I was betraying Serus." Seth said as he swung his legs to the floor. "If Serus acts like this anymore I will move my coven to somewhere where the woman that I love can't hurt me or my daughter." Seth said looking at Jaelynn.

[Evil Tink]

Jaelynn sighed deeply, trying to calm down. She leaned up against the wall rubbing her temples. "If she continues to act like this Ill have no choice but to...reveal her. I will also be present during that..occassion to make sure she doesn't project herself again. I love Serus as much as any daughter would but I'm severly disappointed in her right now."

She crossed her arms with a growl wondering if Serus would ever come around.

[Bovice]

"I'm disappointed in her to Jaelynn." Seth said with a sigh. "Well I don't know about you but I don't wanna sit around here sulking, do you wanna come with me and Annemarie for dinner? I'm buying." Seth asked as he stood up. "Are you hungry hunbun?"
"Yes I am daddy." Annemarie said as she stood up.
"Hey Felix do you wanna go out to eat with me and Annemarie? I'm buying."
"Sure sir." Felix said a little surprised.
"Well we can make it an almost family affair." Seth said with a smile. He looked at Jaelynn. "You gonna come?" Seth asked as he grabbed his jacket.

[Evil Tink]

Jaelynn sighed, shaking her head, "No thanks. I'm just going to seethe for awhile. Go have fun." She smiled slighty pondering what she was going to do with Serus. She didn't really wabt to kill her but she was being so unreasonable.

[Bovice]

"Ok." Seth said with a smile. "If you wanna join us just let me know and I'll come and get you, also you can stay here as long as you want." Seth said as he teleported to the study. "Where do you wanna go hunbun?" Seth asked as he picked Annemarie up.
"Ummm Scalini Fedeli." She said with ease.
"That's in New York." Seth said a little confused.
"I know it is daddy, and you know that its my favorite restaurant." She said with a smile.
"Ahh I can't say no to that face." Seth said as he pinched her cheeks.
"Daddy." She said with a giggle.
"Well grab on Felix." Seth said as he gathered his power.
"Yes sir." Felix said as he put his hand on Seth's shoulder.

"Oh Felix you can call me Seth. Also you might wanna close your eyes." Seth said getting ready to teleport.
"Ok sir, why is thaaaaaaatttttt!" Felix yelled as Seth teleported.

{{Yes that's an actual restaurant xD}}

[Evil Tink]

Jaelynn nodded, waving as she disappeared. She would be here for a few hours, then she'd go back and check in on Serus.

Serus sighed, running her hands through her hair. I really should cut it she thought idly. She went into her bathroom, frowning slightly. She would never get used to looking like this. She pulled her brush from the drawer and began to brush her hair. This always took her so long to do, as there was so much of it.

[Bovice]

Seth teleported back to his house. "Oi I know we don't get anything from human food but I am stuffed." Seth said as he put Annemarie down.
"I know sir, but it was delicious." Felix said as he grabbed his stomach.
"Indeed it was." Seth said looking at Annemarie. "Did you enjoy it hunbun?" Seth said as he looked at Annemarie.
"Yes I did daddy." She said with a yawn.
"You tired hunbun?" Seth asked as he kneeled down.
"A little bit." She said with another yawn.

"Well let's get you in bed." Seth said as he picked her up once again.
"But daddy." She said with a whine.
"Don't but daddy me." Seth said as he teleported to his room. "Oh hey Jaelynn your still here?" Seth asked as he noticed Jaelynn. Seth put Annemarie on the bed. "Sleep tight hunbun." Seth said as he kissed Annemarie on the forehead.

[Evil Tink]

Jaelynn stood, "Yea..I was just about to leave. I figured I better check on Serus, to make sure she hasn't done anything stupid yet." She gave him a hug, "I'll try to talk some sense in her." She let him go then teleported back to the Antinori manor.

Serus decided to take a long hot shower, and while she was rebrushing her hair she sensed Jaelynn appear. She frowned as she sat on the stool, pausing as she waited to see what Jaelynn would do. After a moment of no movement, she continued.

Jaelynn peered into the bathroom, knocking on the door jam, "Serus..we really need to talk." She stepped inside, leaning on the sink.

Serus looked away, using her hair to block her face from Jaelynn's eyes, "I don't want to talk right now."

"Then just listen? You really hurt him earlier today. He's really depressed about what you said." She sighed, grabbing another brush and helping her, "I don't want to lecture you, you can figure things out on your own, but, I feel like there might be something on your mind. Is something wrong?"

[Bovice]

Seth hugged Jaelynn back. Then she disappeared. "Hunbun I'm going to be downstairs in the study if you need anything." Seth said as he got ready to teleport.
"Ok daddy." Annemarie said barely.
Seth teleported to the study. He walked up to a bookcase and grabbed 'Bloodshot'. Seth loved to read about human interpretation of vampires.

[Evil Tink]

Serus sighed, pausing half way through a brush stroke, "I..I don't know how to explain it. I feel like..I dont belong anymore. I'm not..me." She finished the stroke with another sigh, "I don't think I can ever adjust to this. It's so different from what I'm used to. Not to mention, there's something nagging me at the back of my mind."

Jaelynn frowned, resting her chin gently on the top of Serus's head, "Mistress, everything will work out fine. You're just like you were nine years ago, expect perhaps even better. Sure your personality still has a few flaws, but your body is better. You don't have to worry about that spell, you can see, and you're alive. What more could you want?"

She smiled slightly, "I'm not talking about those things Jaelynn. I mean Seth. He seems..different. I mean, I know it's been 8 years, and he's continued his life, but there's something that's still nagging me. I don't know what it is though."

[Bovice]

Seth put the book down with a deep sigh.
"What's the matter sir." Felix asked concerned.
"Oh its just women troubles, you know?" Seth said with another heavy sigh.
"Is this about Annemarie?" Felix asked nicely.
"Well kind of." Seth said pinching his eyes.
"Well sir I don't think you should worry about anything. Annemarie is a very sweet girl and any woman would be lucky to be her stepmother." Felix said with a smile.

"I know, its just that I don't know if me 'dating' is a good thing for her." Seth said leaning his head back.
"Sir anything that you do for your daughter is good enough. I see you two and the way you love her is what any child could ask for." Felix said as he stood up.
"You know what Felix your right." Seth said as he stood up. "Your a good man Felix." Seth said as he patted Felix on the shoulder and the teleported to Serus' room.

Seth appeared in Serus' room. "Serus I know your here. I just want to say something, please just listen to me. I love you ok, but I also love my daughter and her mother. I just want you to meet Annemarie once, if you don't like her then I will leave you alone for the rest of your life. Serus I want the two well three counting Jaelynn, most important women in my life, but if you don't want that then I will leave." Seth said taking a big sigh, and waiting for her response.

[Evil Tink]

She lifted her chin, gently slapping Serus on the back of her head, "You think to much. Just relax. Seth is Seth and you are you. Same as always." She tugged on Serus's hair, "Did you want me to grab you a different dress? This one really needs to be washed." She lifted the dress off the floor, then heard Seth, "In here!" She winked at Serus, "Bye!" And she disappeared to go take care of the dress.

Serus frowned, "Thanks..." Her sarcasm was thick, but she was a bit sincere. She winced sensing Seth, "Do--..too late. I told you Seth I don-Ow!" She grabbed her head as she felt a pinch. She remained silent, making sure the towel was secured, but remained where she was. She really didn't want to talk, but Jaelynn was going to make her.

[Bovice]

Seth walked up to the bathroom and leaned on the door frame. "Serus I'm serious about what I said." Seth said looking in the mirror. "I understand that your mad, I also understand that you understand. But what I don't understand is how you were so cold about it." Seth said still looking in the mirror to see if he could see her eyes. "Serus? Never mind Serus if you don't wanna talk then I guess I will go." Seth said as he walked away from the bathroom. "I really don't wanna end it like this." Seth thought to himself waiting for Serus to hopefully say something.

[Evil Tink]

"Serus Marie you fix this right now. You're being unreasonable."

Serus sighed, throwing the brush at the mirror, "Dammit Jaelynn leave me alone!" She turned to face Seth as he left, but didn't say anything. She didn't really know what to say actually. She really didn't want to know Annemarie...but she didn't want to loose Seth either. "Wait..."

[Bovice]

"Yes Serus?" Seth said as he turned around. Seth crossed his arms. "Serus I'm waiting." Seth said trying to get her to say something. "Serus say something or I'm gone." Seth said in a threatening manor.
