She felt the sadness from Domii, but there was also anger there as well. Perhaps anger at Jac for not understanding completely why Domii left, but Jac knew she had been looking for someone. For Jac had gone looking for Domii. Lavender eyes narrowed in anger and sorrow as she jerked her chin towards Elijah. "He made you leave. What I would've become? You saved me from what? Being what you are!?" And here, Jac exploded. She pointed one finger at Elijah while her lavender eyes angrily burrowed into Domii. "You defend a man who drove you from your home and people who loved you! I know you left to find him! He made you what you are! He made you feel the need to leave! And you defend him?!? Do you think I cared Dominique!? I loved you as my own sister! And you just walked away without a goodbye!" She turned from Domii then and looked at Elijah. "You broke everything! You ripped our homes apart! You drove her to this life! You did! You're no better than... than... YOU'RE NO BETTER THAN A MONSTER!" She then firmly bit her lip so hard that she drew blood, but it kept back what else she wanted to say. Words of hate. Of bitterness. Words against Domii's life style now, against Lestat, Domii's husband and most of all, words that would never be forgiven. Either by Domii, Elijah, or Myn.

" I did not leave to find him!" She shouted back, anger in her eyes. "Do you know how old I am, Myn? I'm nearly two hundren years old! I was what I am now when I met you! He didn't drive me from a home and family! I didn't have a home and family, Myn! I was a street wretch, he SAVED me from that!" She clenched her fist now. "I left because I had too! I left to save you from myself! This unlife of ours is no life at all! Myn, we depend on others for our 'lives' we kill because we have to!" She bit her lip for a moment. "WE ARE MONSTERS, MYN!" She shouted in response, "You're not telling us anything new!"

Elijah stepped back some. He shook his head to relieve himself of recent blood lust, "Ladies," his voice was quiet; an undertone of their shouts, "please be reasonable." He took Domii's hand and stroked her fingers with his, "Dear, this is your friend. There is no need for fighting."

"It's so... Frustrating. I love you both dearly, and I won't allow her to insult you." She paused, turning her eyes to Myn. "He's right... I love you, darling, like a sister... I tell you that is why I left you in the first place. I don't want you to be what I am. There's too much out there for you."

Tears were in Jac's eyes, for this was her most beloved friend. Her most trusted allie. She had spent years looking for her, only to find her like this. Domii... The very name stuck in her throat as she took Domii's words like blows. Then when Elijah spoke, she stiffened and her tears were pushed away rather violently. Anger made her voice softer and her lavender eyes were like stones as she looked to Elijah. "She doesn't need you." Then she looked to Domii silently for a moment. Her heart and anger waging war. "Who are to decide what I want and what life holds for me. You are my sister, in more ways than one. I have looked for you, only to find you a shell of the woman I once knew. You say you were this way before you met me, and this is why you had to leave? Domii... Oh Domii... " She didn't know what else to say, but she stepped out of her shoes, bending down, she slipped the many anklets off her feet, followed by the bracelets as she stood once more upright. "These are my memories. One gold one for every month, I have travelled alone. And one silver one for every night I cried because I thought finding you would be hopeless." She let the circlets dangle from her fingertips as lavender eyes looked sadly at Domii. "I've finally found you and I feel like I'm losing you all over again." She didn't even look at Elijah anymore, for she blamed him for her heartache and her pain. She blamed him for Domii's pain as well.

"I can feel his anger, bitterness... The jealousy radiating off of you, Myn. It's like sunlight on my skin." She sighed, embracing herself. "I didn't want you find me! I didn't want anyone to find me because I don't want to feel love! Do you know what love is? Both of you! Do you? Love is pain! That's all it is! We live to love, but I am dead! You've touched my skin only to find it lifeless and cold. We find the one we think we love, and what happens? They wander! Their eyes wander, their hearts wand...er..." She stopped. Tears had formed and were streaming now from her eyes. "God. What am I talking about?" She clenched her jaw and turned from her two beloved, then started walking.

Jac's heart felt like it was ripping in two, listening to what Domii had to say. Jac had gone through hardship after hardship to find the one person who had always understood her. Her one Beloved and now... She was loosing her. Jac refused to cry in front of Elijah, the one she hated right now. But Domii's heart was breaking, and it was killing Jac. She let her circlets clatter to the ground as she went after Domii and wrapped her arms around her friend's waist. She mumbled into her hair. "I don't care what you are Domii, you are my Beloved. The one person who always knew how I felt and understood. We've shared laughter and tears, love and heartbreak. You cannot ask me to leave you now, when you need me the most. I searched continents to find you... Oh Dearest... I love you Domii, as much as I possibly can. Please, do not leave me alone in the dark again. I need you and you need me. And if anyone were to wander from you... They are blind to your true beauty. They are blind to you. You just need to open their eyes... Oh Domii..." Sadness and Love washed all of Jac's anger away as she bowed her head, pressing her face into the crook of Domii's neck and wept.

He turned from the two women, folding his arms and holding each elbow with the opposite hand, "I'll be here for you too my dear. I know I've made a mistake but I'm willing to help you now." He only wispered but knew Domii's acute hearing would pick it up. He walked away to find a place to sit. He would wait there for her. When she came -If she came- he would be there. Feeling lonely, he turned to his thoughts to keep him company, 'Why does that woman, Jac hate me so much?' Elijah knew he had done wrong in the past but why does God feel he needed to punish him when he was trying to fix what he had done wrong? Never the matter his mind came across what Domii had said about love and he whispered, "Love is a religion darling. You are my only religion." He sighed hoping they would calm down so he and Domii could have a formal reunion and he could be properly introduced to the Jac woman, perhaps there would be wine.

She arched an arm up to play with Myn's hair, crying as well. "Please don't blame Elijah for this. I can feel your hatred for, Myn. This isn't his fault." She turned her head to the side, leaning it against Myn's. "Don't cry for me, my Darling One, I'm not worth it." She sighed. A part of her wanted to make Myn what she was, to keep her forever. However, another part of her knew it wasn't right. She knew that wheither she made Myn a vampire or not, there was still a good chance that she could lose her. The words that had been spoken to her rung out to her clearly in her head, which she spoke softly: "Marriage is a thing of mortals... The rules are different for us who cannot die... " She shook her head. "You're lucky, Myn. You have your life. A heartbeat." She smiled softly. "Come on. I want you... to maybe go talk to Elijah. Don't hate him for what he did. You can't hate him for it. I wanted it."

He sat silently, listening to Domii speak. How he loved to hear her speak.

Myn didn't know exactly how to react to Domii's words, but she quickly dried her tears. It would do no good to have herself be seen this way, or to act this way. Her tears had never solved anything before. Running the back of her hand under her eyes, she wiped away her tears and the running mascara. Forcing a smile at Domii, she nodded. "Let us properly meet Elijah then, for I suppose I have been unfair to him." She promptly slid her hand into Domii's, allowing her friend to take her where she so desired. If Domii only knew... But Jac shut her mind down to those thoughts and emotions, it would do no good here. Those lavender eyes looked to where Elijah was sitting and studied him brutally. She took in every compliment and flaw in stride, knowing there was much more than what met the eyes.

Elijah stirred slightly, feeling all eyes on him. He felt fidgety but tried his best to hold still. This was it, he must make a better impression on this Jac woman. For Domii's sake.

"Alright! Let's try this again." She said as she brought Myn to Elijah, stopping infront of the man. She tilted her head, tossing her slightly damn hair over one shoulder. "You two are... Basically my family, as it stands. Let's try not to be dysfunctional." Domii felt slightly like the child who was trying her hardest her keep her two parents from fighting. For the sake of the 'family'.

If looks could fillet you open to reveal everything about you, this would be so now with the look Jac was giving Elijah. She scrutinized him, looking to see all that she could see. Try Jac, try. Not for your sake, but for the sake of one you hold so dear. She forced a smile and bowed from the waist up to Elijah. "I am Jacquemyn Alaina Beaumont. I am honored to make the aquaintence of one of Domii's close friends." Upon straightening, her lavender eyes were softer and her smile more natural as Jac took firm control of her emotions and reigned them in. If she was to be in this family, she would try to keep it together smoothly. As smooth as silk. Her fingers brushing the material against her thigh to emphasize to herself her own point. Just like silk.

Elijah stood and bowed his head, "Elijah Reine Étiennes," he raised his head and gazed into her eyes, "the pleasure is all mine." From now on, he felt in his heart of hearts that things might finally be okay. He smiled to Domii, a smile that waited for praise.
