For Him

Disclaimer: Dracula? Yep. He's waiting for me in my nice, King-sized bed with red silk sheets. He's naked. But he's not mine. Poo.

Author's Note: Welp. More writings of stupid Sly. Stupid, stupid, stupid Sly. Anyway.

Verona: Thanks much. And you feel bad for Dracula? How? And is it good to be good in angsty romance?

Chapter 2 Review: Yeah. I changed the rating because you scared the hell out of me! Thanks so much!

Mariela: Velkan!

Ganshano Toki: Here's your Velkan!

Chapter 2

Smoke On The Mountain

I sat reading my book. I couldn't concentrate, and I fooled myself by flipping the pages. Anna was across the library from me, reading a book as well, but she was studying me.

"Stop flipping the pages, Velkan," she said to me suddenly, and I stopped. I looked up at her. She was watching me. She put down her book and walked over to me, helping me out of my chair.

"Come, brother. We will take a walk." I followed her out of the mansion and we walked around the town. We said nothing. We nodded as a greeting to anyone who passed us. It soon got to the middle of the day. It was hot. Anna turned to me.

"Do you wish to go back?" I shook my head. I hated the quiet that came with a huge mansion. I needed to be around things that were alive, yet not talking. Nature.

I turned to the mountain and stared at it. It seemed so inviting. Anna looked at me, then turned to look at what I was staring at. Her eyes narrowed.

"What's that?" she asked. I looked at her.

"A mountain?" I said, smiling. She shook her head.

"Smoke." I turned to look at the mountain again.

"Where?" She pointed to a cliff with trees surrounding it. Sure enough, there was a thin line of smoke rising into the sky. It disintegrated as it hit the sky. I narrowed my eyes.

"Smoke? Why is smoke on the mountain?" Anna shrugged.

"Shall we investigate?" I didn't say anything.

"I have a gun," she said, and I laughed. I pulled out the knife I had grabbed before we had gone out of the house. There was another one in my boot. We both laughed.

"Let's go."
