It was a cold rainy night, lightning cracked while thunder boomed. It had been dark out but the light from the full moon could be barely seen hidden amongst the darkened clouds. There, standing at the end of the forest was an enormous victorian castle, inside lived a vampire prince whom would be crowned soon as the new king of Tenyora after the mysterious murder of his parents. The young mans name was Gabriel, He stood at a whopping 6'3 with black fluffy hair like that of a big Tibetan Mastiff. His clothes were sharp and classy in the style of the victorian era to match his beloved home, his eyes a beautiful honey colored amber that would turn red in the midst of intense emotions. Gabriel walked over to the giant window in his bedroom and looked outside, looking out amongst the forest that seemed to spread for miles upon miles. He himself knew that there were more monsters that lived out there and wished to see them for himself but his parents never let him wander far enough to do so. He heard of tales of the Banshees, Cathulu, Demons and more but unfortunately he had only known the most basic and popular monsters due to the lack of information and education. But as he stared off into the distance he noticed a gigantic silhouette of a creature bigger than that of the trees, he had seen something like this before but only once but had been told by his parents that he was imagining things and not to worry about it. Fascinated, he quickly got dressed to go out but remembered that he would probably have to take gaurds with him but he didn't want anyone to stop him or slow him down. Gabriel then got dressed up in a hooded outfit and locked the door which would make the others in the castle think he was asleep, he then ran over to the window opening it swiftly but quietly and closing it behind him as he transforms into a bat and flies off into the forest in the direction the creature had been. After some time of relentless determination and flying, Gabriel managed to finally get closer to the creature without being spotted. As he flew closer he started to notice that this was alot bigger than he had thought, as well as that this was no ordinary monster but yet a titan. This titan stood taller than the trees, and even bigger than his castle! Gabriel paused for a moment to stare in awe at this creature, it had looked like a skeleton but with a giant worn out and ripped up robe. Gabriel watched the creature closely, perching himself in one of the trees, after a bit he watched as the titan had started to shrink. He sat there wide eyed at the sight of this giant creature shrinking right before his eyes, the creature then took form of that of a human, around 6'6 with ocean blue eyes and short white hair, as white as the moon. The man seemed to be dressed up in the same attire as he had in his titan form, Gabriel stared in awe and curiosity at the strange man. "I can sense you... who are you and why are you here?" The man asked, his voice deep but soft. Gabriel froze for a moment, which led to the man asking once more but in a more annoyed and threatning tone "I said, who are you and why are you here. Do not make me have to grow big again and find you myself little pest." Gabriel flew down to the ground behind the man and shifted back to his human form. "Excuse me, I am no pest. I am Gabriel, prince and soon to be king of Tenyora. And who and what might you be?" Gabriel said with a small hiss. "Ah, a vampire yes? I've heard of you... and me? Oh dearie, you have no clue what i am? has no one taught you about the other monsters in this forest?" The man asked with a small hidden smirk. Gabriel looked away for a moment and looked back into the mans eyes "No, unfortunately I wasn't allowed to learn about other monsters other than the more well known ones. So I will kindly ask you again.. Who and what are you?" He said softly. The man chuckled and grinned "I'm Toshi, the skeleton titan. I protect this forest, I'm surprised your parents never told you that. Now why would a highness be out here in the forest all alone with no gaurds, hm?" Toshi asked, his smirk seemingly getting larger. Gabriel hissed once more at Toshi, "Because I was curious of who you are since I had seen you once before when I was younger. But had only seen your silhouette, why is it any of your business anyway?" Toshi got closer to him and tilted his head a bit "You know curiosity killed the cat right?~" He said with a low growl into Gabriel's ear. Gabriel turned his head quickly, hiding his blush with the hood part of his robe. Toshi proceeded to grab Gabriel by the chin and force him to look at him "Did i say you could look away and hide your face? No, I didn't now listen here, I could have been a thief or a killer for that matter. Heck, I could kill you here and now for even entering the forest and making it look like someone else had done it.~" Gabriel's eyes widened and gulped a bit. "F-fine... what is it that you want from me then to let me go?" Gabriel asked softly, trying to reason with the titan. Toshi looked at Gabriel, looking him up and down and smirked "You." Gabriel looked at the titan as if he had thought he had misheard him. "Come again?" Gabriel asked. "I want you. If you do as I say, I will think about freeing you... Do I make myself clear?" He said, growling in his ear once more. "Ok, I will but what do you mean by you want me?" Gabriel said, acting dumb. "What I mean is, I want you to submit to me... I mean you are very cute and I would hate to have to kill you... So, you have two options lil bat, be mine or die." Toshi said, his grip tightening on his chin. Gabriel squeaked softly "B-but you arent a vampire.. that wouldnt work!! What would my people think??" Gabriel said, panicking. "So.... You choose death?" Toshi asked, tilting his head showing his titan skull face. "N-no... I-" Gabriel sighed. "Yes sir." He said softly, "Good boy. See, now that wasnt so hard was it?~" Toshi said with a smirk , kneeling down a bit getting face to face with Gabriel as his face turned back to normal. Gabriel froze again as he felt the heat of Toshi's breath on his face, he couldn't help but be entranced by how handsome the titan had been and the butterflies that had been fluttering in his stomach, what was this feeling he was feeling? Was it love? Was it fear? Gabriel didn't know and didn't care, all he wanted was Toshi but he wouldn't admit it due to fear. "You're mine now, understood lil bat?~" Toshi said with another low growl. Gabriel nodded nervously, "Y-Yes sir." Toshi then proceeded to grab Gabriel's chin more and pulled him to his face, kissing him. Gabriel tensed up in shock at first, eyes widened but started loosening up and closing eyes, enjoying the feeling of the titans soft lips kissing him back. "We will meet back here every evening before the sun goes down, understood?" Toshi said softly, Gabriel looked sad after the titan pulled away. "But why not come live with me in the castle? I can sneak you in!!" He said happily. Toshi pondered for a moment then looked back up at the sad prince, "Soon. But for now I need you to make sure we wont get caught, and besides I have a job to do and that's protect this forest. So can you promise me you will be back tomorrow evening?" He said in response. Gabriel sat there for a moment sad that he would have to sleep alone again but nodded in agreeance. "Of course, I understand. I will, you have my promise." He said with a fake smile, Toshi smiled "Good lil bat.~ I shall see you tomorrow, sleep well little one." He said with a smile as he turned and walked further into the dark forest. "You too! Toshi..." He said softly under his breath, Gabriel proceeded to turn towards home and turned back into a bat, flying home. Later, as Gabriel finally reached his destination, he opened the window and snuck back in making sure to close the window behind him. "Off to be alone.... Again..." He said sadly as he started to undress and get snug under the blankets of his bed. Gabriel couldn't help but smile though as he started dozing off, dreaming about the titan and what might be in store for them in the future. After some time of laying there dreaming, Gabriel managed to finally fall in a deep sleep.
