Hellstrom strolled slowly down the dark streets, humming softly to himself. From time to time he still licked his lips. A pleasant, energy filling warmth was spreading through his entire body with every movement. The thirst was gone, at least for the time being and he felt strangely relieved, almost lightheaded.
Milena was waiting on a small bench under the Great Park clock. She was undoubtedly a seductive creature, but Dieter wondered why people, or at least himself as a human, had failed to see that she wasn't quite that. Human, that is. Her unnaturally pale face, with dark hauting eyes, her blood red lips, all contrasting with her perfectly black medium lenght hair, which was always ruffled and a bit wild, her feral white smile, it all plainly spelled danger. A nocturnal creature. A beautiful nightmare.
He saw her from quite a distance and wondered if it was possible to surprise her. Probably not, but he decided to give it a try anyway. He crept in complete silence behind some trees, quite close from where she sat, slightly crouched and smoking a thin ivory pipe, and from there he attempted a leap that was supposed to make him appear right next to her. But unfortunately the long leather coat hindered him and the leap ended with him landing flat on his face at her feet.
„How do you call that? A wardrobe malfunction?" she spoke in a husky voice, softly blowing out a cloud of smoke.
„Damn it! I just wanted to suprise you..." Hellstrom pouted, dusting himself quickly. He slid the coat down from his shoulders and just cast it away with a casual gesture.
„You mean scare me. Much appreciated" Milena giggled.
„I didn't know vampires smoke" he changed the subject.
„Well it can't kill us, so..."
„But why do you smoke pipe? You look like an old school teacher"
„I am a master. And you are my apprentice" she said seriously taking a long drag.
Dieter cuddled next to her, smiling.
„And what are you teaching?"
„Extreme survival techniques" she laughed softly." So... feeling better?"
„Mmm... sort of" Hellstrom joked. „It was... filling. Like foodwise, drinkwise.... and sexwise. All in one mouthful. I really don't have the right words to describe it. I was a bit overwhelmed, to be honest. I just... didn't expect it"
„You forgot clever and cruel interrogation wise, my dear"
Dieter chuckled.
„It was so fast though. I think i might have been a bit too rushed. Actually i think i could have enjoyed it more if i had drunk slower..." he pondered, frowning slightly.
„Well, sure. But first times are always rushed. Just like it happened to you the first time you made love, and you cursed your lack of skill later"
„What? How do you know that??"
„Drinking your blood made me see all your memories, and all your thoughts. I can still do that now, since I made you. You can hold no secrets from me" she chuckled.
„Oh... that explains it" Dieter said leaning back on the bench and letting his head fall back. „I didn't know how the hell i'd gotten a sudden update on the evening news"
Milena laughed, showing fangs.
„Come now. It's nearly morning. Time to rest" she said standing up, shaking the pipe and pulling him up to his feet.
„Mmm... where are you taking me?" he purred, embracing her from behind.
„To the place I call home these days. Oh, and i want to show you another trick. Close your eyes"
„Why?"
„Just do it..."
It was a stone chamber with the ceiling not high enough as to allow them to stand, and not very large altogether. It was only vaguely lit by a green light and the floor was covered in a rich mattress and cushions in the same emerald color. A large bear fur blanket lay in the middle.
„Hmm... what is this place?" Hellstrom asked, a bit confused.
"My tomb for the moment. Do you like it?"
He jumped and pulled back, gasping and backing against the wall, visibly frightened.
„Wha- a tomb?? What are we doing in a tomb??"
Milena rolled her eyes, then smiled wickedly.
„Are you scared, Dieter? Or you would rather prefer a coffin just for you?"
„N-no, no coffin. I'm fine. Um… I've never been in a tomb before actually and…" he mumbled, shaking his head quickly.
„I'm sure you've never been. Now... don't be so tense..." she whispered sensually, drawing closer.
Broke my heart down the road
Spend the weekend sewing the pieces back on
Cats and dogs pass me by
Walking gets too boring
When you learn how to fly
Her lips brushed gently against his, as she pushed his shoulders back.
Not the homecoming kind
Take the top off
And who knows what you may find
The kiss began softly, then gradually became more and more fierce, untill she pulled back, allowing him to literally tear her dress open. Dieter let his lips wander on her neck, along the line of her marble shoulders and further down.
Won't confess all my sins
You can bet I'll try it
But you can't always win
When she was almost naked, she grinned and began to graciously unbutton his clothes, then cast them aside in a pile together with the remainder of her garments.
Cause I'm a gypsy
Are you coming with me
I might steal your clothes
And wear them if they fit me
Hellstrom pushed her down on the cushions and pulled the bear fur over their bodies. He was eager to explore her marvelous body with his new, much sharper senses. Her marble flesh was hard, but the skin petal soft. He felt her fangs teasingly biting into his lower lip and tension began to build up in his body. Only this time it was different. Their bodies intertwined, but as he moved, setting his rythm faster and faster, he suddenly realised that his body wanted something more. It wanted something else, too... He rushedly licked a few drops of blood from his own lip, where Milena's fangs had grazed it, and he knew it. He suddenly sat up and pulled her into his lap, violently biting down into her neck.
She chucked as he growled while feeding. Her long sharp nails dug into his back and into the back of his neck as she moaned. As for Hellstrom, a thousand images flooded his mind, along with the rich flavour of her blood. There were so many memories, of times long forgotten, and he treasured them all in his passion. His peak hit him hard, draining his strenght, as they both collapsed back on the mattress, panting heavily.
He turned his head to watch her as she lay down, eyes closed and her lips slightly parted. Everything he'd experienced before now seemed superficial and empty. He'd never truly felt anyone with such intensity before. Just like he'd never loved anyone before.
Around midnight the next evening, Dieter woke up after a deathlike, dreamless sleep. He stretched and saw that Milena was already up, and she was wearing his clothes. He caught her just as she was fixing the black tie around her delicate neck.
„What do you think you are doing, Liebchen?" he asked, slightly amused. „You can't wear my uniform"
„Well, since my dress is literally an unusable rag, I am the Major now" she replied and stuck her tongue out. „I'm gonna go catch some breakfast now, it's late and i'm hungry"
„But... what am I gonna wear?" Hellstrom questioned.
„Like what do I care?" she shrugged and jumped up, pulling aside the lid that covered the tomb.
Cause I'm a gypsy
Are you coming with me
I might steal your clothes
And wear them if they fit me
