Kaden smiled and nodded. "Of course! In fact, I kinda prefer it. I like to know you're near me," he said softly, leading Akira to the stairs to walk up to the next, and highest, floor. The whole top floor belonged to Markous, or Boss. Kaden tightly gripped Akira's hand within his own as he knocked on the door to the penthouse.

Akira smiled at what Kaden said. He stood closer to his mate when he knocked on the door and tightened his hand around the other's. Some one on the other side said 'come in'. The Sensaforian bit his lip in nervousness.

Kaden opened the door, which let out a soft creaking sound, before entering. He closed the door behind himself and Akira and turned to find Markous sitting on a posh couch on the other side of the room. The Incubus bowed slightly and glanced nervously around, making sure there was no one else in the room.
"Ah! Kaden! My favorite person right now. You really went out of your way for me again," the vampire said with a deep, rumbling voice. Kaden nodded guarded in responce. Markous smirked and turned his eyes to Akira. "Well, what do we have here? Another bitch?" Kaden stiffened and let out a low growl.
"Hardly. He's my mate, Boss," Kaden explained, glaring at nothing. Markous laughed lightly.
"Right!" the vampire drauled, rolling his eyes, "And next he'll be mine, just like the others." Kaden snarled at his boss.
"No! You touch him and I swear I'll gut you like a fish!" He hadn't meant to react so harshly, especially not to someone like Markous, but the thought of anyone else touching Akira infuriated him.

Akira hid behind Kaden slightly. He didn't like Markous. The made made him uncomfortable, and he was sure something bad was going to happen. Kaden just yelled/threatened him. He was happy his mate was defending him but... he didn't want his mate being hurt. He wanted to say something, but thought it would only make things worse.

Markous growled audibly and stood from his seat. "Are you threatening me, boy? I picked you up off the streets when you were practically dead... I won't have any problem putting you back in the same condition." Kaden moved into a defensive position, placing a hand on his sheathed knife just in case. Markous regarded the Incubus critically for a moment before sitting back down, seeming to ignore them, and lit up a cigarette. "I don't have time for your games," he mumbled after a moment, "If you want the boy, take him, but I don't come running to me if someone else wants a taste."
"Don't worry. I won't," Kaden hissed, taking Akira by the waist and pulling him out of the room. Once they were on the stairs, Kaden sighed heavily, collapsing to the ground to sit on a step and lean his head against the wall. "Everytime I go in there.....," he mumbled to himself.

Akira kneeled on the step in front of Kaden, he was inbetween the boy's legs. He wrapped his arms around his neck in a hug. The brunette kissed his mate's cheek. "Oh, Kaden," he said softly. "Kaden ted-... Kaden, is everyone here like that?" he asked. He buried his face in the other brunette's neck. "I think this is the first time I ever wanted to... to hurt somebody," he muttered. "I can't believe that man threatened you."

Kaden sighed, wrapping his arms around Akira's waist gently. "No.. They aren't like that. Only Boss is strong enough to say anything like that and live. I'm pretty good with my knife, you know. Anyone that works here knows that, but there's no way I could be beat Boss... and he knows that... or maybe he just thinks that and he wants me to think that too," he mumbled somberly. He kissed Akira's head and sighed. "If anyone treats you like that, you tell them about me... and me about them and I'll make sure they don't, got it?" he demanded. He couldn't live with anyone hurting Akira.

"Okay," Akira said softly. "You told me to do that before, remember?" he smiled. He kissed Kaden again softly. "I'm part Zercan, you know. If I could bring myself to it, I could transform and I could probably fight pretty good. I don't know which form is stronger...," he trailed off. "I think you could beat him.... And that's why he 'didn't have the time'. I wouldn't want you to get hurt, though."

Kaden chuckled lightly. "No... That's just him saying he's bored with us and wants us to leave him alone," he explained. He stood, pulling Akira with him, and started to walk down the stairs. "Do you want to eat or sleep now? Or maybe something else?"

Akira shrugged. He still believed Kaden could take that annoying rude man. "Something else. Maybe we can clean your apartment?" he suggested.

Kaden pouted and sighed loudly. "But.. But I don't wanna clean it! It'd take a whole lifetime to clean that thing!" he cried.

Akira smiled. "That's why we should start now!" he said. "We can at least clean your bedroom, right? I don't see how you can sleep with clothes on your bed."

Kaden pouted. "I push 'em onto the floor...," he mumbled. He sighed heavily, but complied and started to lead Akira back towards their suite.

Akira rolled his eyes. "That doesn't do a thing!" he complained. "...You do wash your clothes, don't you?" he asked suspiously.

Kaden pouted indignantly. "Of course I do! That's gross! I just wait until I don't have anymore clean clothes left... so I don't have to carry all those clothes downstairs to the laundry so often," he explained snidely. Akira thought he was just so funny, didn't he? Kaden stuck his tongue out and frowned.
