Chapter 4
Dracula went back up to father's study.
"Where's Trixie?" Father asked.
"She and a friend of hers are having fun with two teenage intruders downstairs."
"She will make an excellent queen someday." Father said.
I chose Richard and Crystal chose Steven. The scent of their blood was getting sweeter.
"What do you think, my lady?"
"They wanted to see the castle. So let's show them the castle."
But a man came in with a cross. We both hissed. We both backed up in fright.
"Get out of here, boys. We'll discuss this later." The man said.
"Yes, dad."
Father sensed my fear and ran out the door. Grandfather followed him.
"Daughter!" Father cried.
"Father!" I cried.
The hunter backed up slowly and ran. Father ran down to us.
"Are you both all right?"
"We're fine, father."
"Let's go upstairs. I'll have someone bring each of you a few humans."
I leaned against him as we walked up the stairs. Mother saw me and ran over.
"Oh my god! What happened?"
"A hunter interrupted their fun downstairs."
"Oh my god! Are you all right, my daughter?"
Father went to a servant.
"There are several humans in the dungeons. Bring up six of them."
"Yes, my lord."
Mother helped me to a chair. In Forks, Carlisle went to work.
"I heard that someone is moving into the house down the road from you."
"Did you hear anything else about it?"
"Just that they are royalty from Transylvania. Spooky."
Carlisle chuckled. A nurse came in.
"Dr. Cullen, your son, Edward, is here."
"I'll be back, Diane."
"All right, dr."
Carlisle walked out of the room. Edward was at the front desk.
"Edward? What is it?"
"The movers moved another coffin into the house today."
"You're being rediculous."
Edward sighed.
"I went inside the house. There are three coffins inside."
"Go home, Edward. We will discuss your trespassing later."
"Yes dad."
Edward left. Carlisle called Esme.
"What is it, dear?" She asked.
"When Edward gets home, I need you to take his car keys away. He is grounded until further notice."
"What did he do?"
"He snook into that house a few blocks away."
Edward got home. Esme met him at the front door.
"Hand over your car keys. You are grounded until further notice."
"What? Why?"
"You know better than to trespass on someone's property."
He grumbled and handed the keys over. He then walked up to his room. Carlisle came home.
"It seems the people moving in are royalty from Transylvania. The youngest one will be starting her Senior year at high school."
"We've never had royalty here before. This should be interesting."
"Indeed, it should. Edward, come down here a minute."
Edward slowly walked down the stairs.
"Dad, I-"
"Nothing. Nothing gives you the right to trespass on someone's property. You will lose all of your priviledges until further notice. You will not go hunting by yourself as we can't seem to trust you enough."
Edward hung his head.
