Talen glared up at Darcia in hatred as the wound in his side faded a few moments after she plunged a dagger into his body. He knew she wasn't even getting warmed up yet. Darcia knew many methods of torture. Talen growled low in his throat as Darcia drove the dagger into him again but held it there, not allowing Talen's body to heal itself. He winced slightly, grinding his teeth. 1
"Talen. I know that what you told me before was a lie. Why do you truly want to be rid of me?"2
Talen said nothing..and he paid for it. After waiting and getting no answer, Darcia slowly turned the dagger a fraction of an inch to the right, making Talen squirm in pain. 3
Great.., he thought, Now she's going to twist me into knots.4
Darcia stilled the dagger, waiting to see if Talen would speak and again, nothing. The vampiress frowned and harshly jerked the dagger in the opposite direction, making a complete 180 twisting motion, drawing a pained cry from Talen. Darcia didn't want to do this but she had to in order to find out what she wanted to know. She could not read Talen's thoughts, for every time she did, she would either cause pain for Talen or be completly blocked out whenever he didn't want her probing his mind.5
Darcia removed the dagger from Talen's body and leaned over him. After seeing that the wound healed she, without warning, sank her fangs into his neck, rendering him weak but still able to keep concious. Talen slumped tiredly against the wall he was chained to, his eyes droopping.6
What he failed to notice is the small needle that Darcia extracted from a small, flat, square container hidden away in her pocket. The vampiress then took firm hold of one of Talen's wrists. Taking a deep breathe and preparing to cause an unbearable amount of pain to her own creation, Darcia pressed the tip of the needle underneath Talen's fingernail, not puncturing the skin but firmly enough to make anyone talk. Talen's eyes shot open and he yelled in pain.7
"Alright! There's this King in the west. His name's Narik. He sent a group of messagers to me and demanded that I kill you, or he'll do it himself if I refuse. Narik is known far and wide to be the most wicked of people when it comes to torture. His torturing skills rival yours, Darcia. I've seen what he does and I didn't want him doing such things to you," confessed Talen.8
Darcia removed the needle from underneath Talen's fingernail and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him to her. Talen tiredly rested against his sire's chest, sighing in defeat. He had attempted to kill her to save her from a greater fate. Darcia gently rocked Talen back and forth.9
"Forgive me, Talen. Why didn't you tell me the truth?"10
"I..didn't want..you to hate me so.." replied the exhausted vampire.11
Darcia shook her head, smiling slightly. She glanced over at Drake only to see that he had fallen asleep due to Darcia's earlier feeding upon him. She sighed softly when she discovered that Talen had also fallen asleep in her arms. After unchaining him, Darcia moved to a part of the room that the sunlight wouldn't touch for the rest of the day and settled there to sleep, still holding her other half.12

Hai..I'm sorry for disappointing you. I remembered a promise to sierra that i'd get a chapter up by Saturday and by the time I had remembered that promise, it was almost 8 at night.
Soooooo..yea. Again, sorry. That was the worst procrastination in the world and it won't happen again!

I liked this. I'm glad you didn't make Talen a /real/ evil guy, you know? I was admiring him in the past chapters, that is until he "torture" and tried to kill Darcia. This rocked! WOO! lol, can't wait for the next chapter.
