Romulus ran flat out until he finally reached the castle that served as his good friends lair. He climbed the steps and went through the big double doors at the entrance, he knew that the night was at its half way marker because the other vampires that inhabited the castle were coming in from their night of hunting or terrorizing.
He had taken a detour while running to the lair to sniff a certain attractive girls hind parts until he remembered why he'd been running in the first place.
Romulus took the stairs by twos until he reached the third flight. He stopped there because he saw Alhondra, Trista and Gwen huddled together whispering. His ears perked up so he was able to hear them more clearly.
"And then I saw him leave his manor to go for a drink, the human was already reeking of drink…" Alhondra started but then stopped when she noticed that Romulus was listening to her conversation.
"Excuse me dog but I am having a conversation that you weren't invited in, scram!" she spat at him with a wicked gleam in her evil eyes.
"Fine, fine I'm moving." Romulus started to the fourth floor after seeing them retreat into Alhondra's room to whisper about the man who reeked of drink some more.
When he reached the fourth floor landing he saw Nicolae come out of his room reading. When the fair haired vampire saw Romulus his solemn face broke into a friendly smile.
" What brings you to the lair dear friend?" Nicolae asked closing his book.
"I found Sophia's dress by the lake and thought I would have a word or two with Drake about it, he doesn't need to go about spoiling her!" Romulus crumpled the gown in his large fist and Nicolae smiled warmly at him.
"I don't think that Drake is going to spoil her any, he seems to genuinely care for her, I trust him." he sighed and then took a seat in the same wooden chair he'd been sitting in only the night before. Romulus leaned on the wall by Nicolae with a huff.
"What is with all you night stalkers anyway?" he said gruffly to Nicolae. In response to Romulus's distress Nicolae raised his gaze to peer into his friend disheveled face.
"What ever do you mean my friend?"
"All of you are acting odd, Alhondra was just in the hall whispering to those other two haunts about some drunk human, and its obviously something quite amazing because she didn't want me to hear, so she didn't kill the man otherwise she would be telling the whole world, you know that." he let out another dramatic huff and slid down the wall to sit on the floor.
"Hmm, that is peculiar behavior, I think I will go and try to listen in on what Ms. Pond scum has to say." Nicolae rose and Romulus got up to follow. "No, no friend stay here, however wonderful your powers are your silence is lacking, stay put, I'll tell you what she says when I return."
Nicolae got up and went down the staircase leaving Romulus pouting by his chair. Swiftly moving down the staircase and unto the landing of the third floor Nicolae didn't make a sound, his long heavy coat didn't even rustle. He finally reached Alhondra's door and put his ear up to it trying his hardest to make his breathing shallow so not to be heard by the women beyond the door or by anyone passing by on the stairs.
He then heard Trista say, "So once you told the mortal that you had taken his human girl what did he say?"
"Yes what? What?" Gwen echoed.
"He said he didn't believe me, then I told him how I acquired his name by listening on the other side of Drake's door and then I showed myself!" she laughed high and loud and the others joined in. "He started crying when I told him thathis sweet Sophia was Drake's lover and that I was the one who took her!"
"That's hilarious!" Gwen shrieked.
"Shhh! Go on Alhondra!" Trista pressed.
"So after that I told him where he was able to find Drake and his dear Sophia!" Alhondra said with a snicker.
"You told him where the castle was?" Gwen questioned not laughing anymore.
"Yes, it doesn't matter the dumb human will either come alone and die by our fangs, or he'll bring a mob and kill Drake and take the girl!" Alhondra answered back unfolding her plan before the other two women.
Nicolae's eyes widened with shock. Why was she betraying Drake? He knew she didn't care for him but why does she want him dead so badly? He listened more intently.
"That damn blood traitor wont know what hit him, he wants to choose a damn human whore over one of us than he will pay for it! And maybe his ignorance will be the death of his friends also!" Alhondra said triumphantly.
"Yes death to the blood traitors and the dog!" the other two called out with a mock tone.
Nicolae took a step back with his heavy soled boots forgetting himself.
"Did you hear that?'' Gwen said.
Nicolae didn't stick around for the others to reply he went straight up to talk to Drake.
