A weird meeting between two weirdos....

"Who are you, Mister? Please don't do anything bad to me. Ok?"

She whispered while slowly turning her head to see his face. With her back held against his body, it was a difficult task.

"No. I will not harm you. I just need some nourishment. I will leave after that."

He said after snapping back from his thoughts.

"Oh. Is that so? I have a lot of food in the kitchen. Please help yourself. I have no money in my hand. I can cook for you whatever you want. I had no guest other than Aunt Lisa."

As she continued to speak, Boian felt like it was his turn to get hypnotized as her voice was attractive and soothing giving him an urge to do whatever she requests of you.

"Don't scream... I don't need any food from you. I want to drink your blood." He said while preparing himself to close her mouth in case she screams. He secretly wants her to resist so he can just drink her blood and go without breaking his self-made rule or waste time on her.

"Drink blood... hmm.. That is a great joke haha." She had a weird expression when he said he wanted to drink blood. She might have thought it to be a joke and faked a laugh to appease him.

'What's with her fake laugh? Is she thinking I will get angry if she did not laugh?' Boian thought as she continued her obvious fake laugh.

Hearing her continue this facade without stop, his brows twitched but still could not get angry as he still found even her fake and weird laugh attractive. He felt something was wrong with him. Why was he finding her attractive? He was not in love. He was sure about that. This was entirely different from that.

He slowly released his left hand which was holding her body, thus releasing her and allowing her to move.

"What's your name?" He asked the first time in his life to his target as curiosity overwhelmed him.

"Vi... Viette." She replied while cautiously turning her head around and finally taken a peek at the man behind her.

Clad in black clothes, Boian looked young and anyone who saw him will take him as a youth. Just that he had weird white facial hair that looked well shaped. He had black hair with no white hair on his head which made him stand out. He had short hair with his front spiked a little. She was not sure whether he was old or young based on his looks. He was handsome and has a charm that made her compare him to celebrities without losing out to them at all.

"Listen, Viette. I am a nice person, but you people might know me as a vampire. I won't be rough and I will promise it will be painless. Is there something you need to do before we begin?" He said while observing her face waiting to see how she will react when she learns he was a vampire. As expected, her reaction was different.

"A vampire. Please don't joke around. It's not funny anymore" She said while placing her hands on her curvy hips with a scolding pose.

"I don't care if you believe it or not. I will drink your blood now." He did not want to waste his time speaking with her. So when he heard her words of not believing he took a step forward intending to close on her.

But Viette sensing his approach already took two steps back while saying.

"Yes. I believe you. Even if you say you are the Dracula himself, I will believe you."

Hearing her words his brows twitched, and he gave a fierce glance towards her.

'The heck. Why do you have to remind me of the fucking Dracula thing.' His instinct was telling him to hasten his work and get done with the girl as quickly as possible. But his mind told otherwise. He felt reluctant to use any force against her from the moment he interacted with her.

Feeling his fierce glance she lowered her head as if she is guilty and mumbled to him.

"I heard vampires can transform themselves into bats and wolves. That means you will be able to do as well. Right? Can you please show me? I have never seen something like that before. Will you do it for Viette?" As she almost finished talking, she raised her head and looked at him expectantly with her eyes glistening.

Despite her cute actions and words, he can tell she was asking him to prove whether he was whom he said he was.

'Why am I feeling a desire to show off in front of her?'

"Ok. What do you want me to transform into?" Finally, he blurted out. But a voice was screaming in his ear. 'Fuck, did I just say that.'

"Really. That's great. Usually, a vampire can transform into a bat. right? Since you have given me the choice that means you can transform into anything. That's cool. Can you transform into a cat, no, a lion, no wait, a dragon? A small and cute dragon please." She said with excitement.

He did not know what to do with this girl. 'Is she for real? What is wrong with her? She wants to make me a living and walking zoo? Is she teasing me because she does not believe I am a vampire?'

"ehhmm...Believe it or not, I will do it just once. I have never been this lenient with a human. Since you are so cooperative, I will make an exception." With an awkward cough, he made her stop talking and tried to sound serious. But somehow he found it hard to do so.

Without making a sound his body disappeared and a small bat appeared flying in the air. Boian only transformed for a second before turning back into the human form. He worried that she would run to him and try to pet him or something. He clearly did not know what this girl will do next. But what happened after the transformation stunned him agape.

"Oh My freaking god. A real vampire. A real goddamn vampire." Viette seemed to jump up and down like a little girl full of excitement and surprise. She slammed her small and fair-skinned fists into the wall while laughing and screaming merrily.

His eyes contracted and his lips turned upward into a sly grin as her excited laughs and scream like "A real vampire" echoed in the room.

*********************************

"The nerve."

Lisa shouted suddenly. Except for some white streaks of hair, she looked not that old. Her face was elegant and had a charm to it.

"What is it, Lisa? Don't make unnecessary noises. Focus on the ceremony. We cannot afford to disrupt the ceremony." Said Lewis with a frown. He was not pleased by how Lisa made a sound while they were focused on the ceremony.

The others said nothing, but they looked at Lisa weirdly. Why did she suddenly shout out?

"Someone had the guts to break into my house. I want to leave." The old woman, Lisa said while trembling in anger. Her anger clearly affected the energy she channeled causing the portal like structure in the middle to shake. Seven people are standing in a circle like position with their hands raised channeling their energy to open and maintain this portal.

"Calm down. If there is nothing valuable in the house, forget it. The ceremony is more important. You know ending the ceremony will affect us badly." Lewis scolded. He was displeased when Lisa said she wants to leave.

"But.. but" before she could finish, Lisa was interrupted by a woman in the circle.

"Hehe, are you worried about that human toy you are raising? What so special about that girl. I can gift you a couple. If you dare run away now, I will kill you both." She did not want this ceremony to get interrupted either and seemed to have prior resentment against Lisa.

"Shut up Nightmare. As for you Lisa, you know we will be badly affected if you stop now. We cannot handle it. Nightmare might have said it in anger, but if you cause trouble I will brand you as a violator and we will hunt you down. Even that girl will be included. You do not want to face my wrath. Do you?" Lewis said seriously and after a moment of silence, he continued.

"If you are worried about the girl or anything valuable, you can ask Margaret to send supervisors there or go there herself. That would solve the problem and handle the invader."

Lisa sneered on the inside. 'Sending your underling will only make it worse. Don't think I do not know you, you old fart. Even without my traps or illusions, she will be fine herself. And it's only one person who broke in.'

"Don't bother. It's not worth it. Even if the bastard who broke into my house has the ability to wipe out my valuables, I don't want to give you people a justified chance to rob me. mm." She sneered and focused on the ceremony. But on the inside, she was worried about the girl and could only activate defensive features through her will.

Margaret who was on the side slightly moved but was frozen by a deathly pressure. She felt a deadly glare only to find Lisa looking at her.

'I may not be able to leave but I will neither let anyone leave nor leak the news outside until I can return.' Lisa sneered as she thought.
