Chapter 3: Lovers
He woke with a start. One did not live so lone without caution. Ah, one of the new servants. He listened for a brief moment more and flung open the coffin. A twisted conceit and a reminder of what he once was. The mutant eyes showed mild fear. Good if no, when attacked he would not be incapacitated by fear. But fear of the Vampire King was wise. He calmly dressed in simple yet rich clothes. For tonight he would claim his own. How beautiful she is. How nice it would be even for a short moment of time to have a woman at his side. But she feared him, but that would be such a small thing to clear from her mortal mind. For two years he watched her. The first time he saw her she was swimming nude in the small lake that birthed the stream. Her beauty held him in that moon filled night. Her beauty and her bravery. He listened to her as she spoke to herself about her treatment at the village. Her self-pity was the one thing he did not like about her. But she was yet a child. So he waited two years, but two nights ago he could wait no longer. He wanted her, but the moment he saw the fear in her eyes he knew he could wait just a moment longer. He did not live so long without patients. But tonight she would be his, although he would allow her to go home for a while. He also watched her Aunt. He respected the old woman.
He gave his orders to the head servant, and headed out to the warm night. The moon was beginning to wane but there was more than enough light for one such as he. And even enough light for mortal eyes. He stood calmly in the brush and waited for his beloved.

Tanya was given her dress as well. The bodice fit like a second skin and the skirt flared out at the hips and stopped at her ankles. A popular fashion with the young ladies in the region. She was happy to see that her meager assets looked a little less meager. She admitted to herself the night before that she was attracted to the vampire. Although she was still frightened of him. She did not know what he wanted from her. She was not nearly as pretty as many of the other girls in the village. And she was almost as tall as the men. She styled her hair looked in the mirror and took it down. She tried some braids shook her head and left her long auburn hair loose. She then picked up her cross held it up to her cheek and looked thoughtfully at the mirror. Should she, it would be some protection but it could anger him. Shouldn't she, she might end up his lunch. She picked up a handkerchief and wrapped the cross and placed it under her mattress. It was now an hour past sunset she realized with a start. She didn't even stop to put on her shoes but ran out the door and to the stream.
***
He was beginning to wonder if she was defying his order, or perhaps forbidden... He heard the sound of running, or perhaps like many another young woman had taken to long in worrying about her appearance. He waited for her to catch her breath and stepped out of the brush. She started, but quickly caught herself. He stepped up to her drew her up to him and saw the fear in her eyes. With but a thought he pushed the fear from her mind and kissed her. She returned his kiss.
Later as the night grew old he helped her zip up her dress. "Meet me here every night that the weather is good," He said softly. Her only answer was a kiss. He held her in his arms a moment longer and then was gone. Tanya just realizing how late it was getting raced home.
Cara paced the floor looking even more careworn. The door opened. "Are you well Tanya?" she asked, "did he bite you?"
"No he did not bit me Auntie." Tanya then headed for her room. Cara then noticed a small blood stain and the seat of her skirt. Oh no! she thought.
"He did not force you did he," Cara asked
"No Auntie I wanted it as well as he. I love him."
Cara knew she could not do much about this. Tanya in just two no just one day would reach the age of adulthood. All she could do is be there for her niece.
***
For Three months Tanya faithfully meet her lover. Rain nor wind would keep her away. Dracula would take her to his castle when it was nasty outside. On those nights she would often stay during the day as well. Dracula never tried to bite her. But as the leaves fell from the trees Dracula broke some news to his beloved. "There is some traitors who need dealing with. I will be gone for a time."
Tanya promised to wait. And held her tears when he left.
