Chapter 2
Selene Meets the Brides
Selene and Dracula stood outside of his cold, dark, massive Castle. She was naked and wrapped in a threadbare blanket, meant to humiliate her. The attempt failed, it would take more than that to daunt her spirit the Coven had let her live for the moment. Before long they had reached the Castle and were inside its walls.
Dracula turned and looked at her briefly, and said, "The year is 1862, My Dear. If you are good to me and fulfill your part of the arrangement I promise that you will be gone from this place and it will be nothing more than a bad memory."
Selene replied, "Yes My Lord, I intend to find out your likes and your dislikes, there is no reason why I need not pleasure you, after all there have been rumors that your women are quite content."
Dracula, turned to look deep into her eyes, "Now, Selene, I have three women all different all beautiful,which I have collected like fine works of art. But, unfortunately, none of these women have been able to produce a son for me, I have tried and failed, let us hope that through you, your Coven has the answer.
Please allow me to introduce you to your new Step Sisters.
Dracula took a tall slender woman with long brunette hair by the hand and kissed her tenderly saying "This is my Queen Bride Verona."
So this is what she looks like, Selene thought, I must look like a sight to her wrapped only in a blanket.
"My Dear, I thought death dealers could handle themselves," she said staring at the floor.
"They can, I have been asked to leave my Coven", Selene said smoldering.
Dracula interrupted, there was a blonde on his arm "This is my Party Girl, Marishka". Marishka's grin was wicked she let her spiked teeth show through her red lips.
He turned and directly over his shoulder stood a redhead who let out the most hideous laugh, she screamed, "I need no introduction, I am Aleera, and Step Sister you do know how step children are treated don't you?" Her laughs were screeching, it hurt Selene's ears.
Dracula said, "Now Aleera that is not polite, Selene is our guest."
Dracula stated "My darlings, this is Selene. She belongs to Viktor's Coven, she will be with us until she fulfills her obligation to me, I can not tell you what the obligation is, I will tell you at a later date."
Dracula took Selene upstairs and had her change into a red dressing gown, it was not too unlike what the other Brides wore. She was grateful there was no collar like Verona's, and she was not showing too much skin like Marishka. It somewhat resembled Aleera's gown. Selene thought to herself that's great, the one who's the most jealous.
Selene studied the Brides,
Aleera was the most jealous, and strongest of all three.
Marishka, was not serious about the kill, would play with her food before she ate it. Or so goes the rumor.
Queen Verona her remarks cut into Selene, as far as Selene knew about Verona she would carry out Dracula's orders no matter how heinous they were.
The sooner Dracula would come to her to make his intentions known the better for her. She had no qualms about the child she would leave behind.
