Hey, I'm back from my little week-end break! Not that it changes something in my life to have week-ends, because I don't really like that part of the week. But it gave me time to think about what to write. I hope you will like that chapter:)

Chapter 23; New home at home

Anne woke only the day after, Dracula by her side, holding her hand to the place where his heart was suppose to be, only, she couldn't feel his pulse, for he had none. She was laying in a king size bed in one of her usual silk nightdress.

-Where are we? She asked, finding her voice stranger each time she speaks

-We are in Chambly. He smiled, before leaning to kiss her forehead. I found a house close to Richelieu river and the fort. Is it alright with you?

As soon as he finished his sentence, Anne burst into tears, which was quite unusual for a vampire, even more for a new born. She was home at last and what was even more wonderful, it was that she was actually in a place that she knew well. One of her favorite city. She had always like Chambly for it was full of memories from the past.

-Tomorrow though, I'd like to visit Montreal. Dracula continue, as he held Anne in his arms, rocking her gently. If you don't want to come, its alright.

-I want to. She nodded

Dracula knew she would not say no. He knew she hated that city but also figured out that she would appreciate to see the changes. She had been gone for so long. Montreal was the prefect place for her first hunt. There was people everywhere and there was as much in the night. There was bars and clubs open at late hours, so it would be quite easy to find someone suitable for his princess. But for now, she would feed on his own blood.

Making sure she was comfortable on her pillows kissed her lips softly and placed the nail of his little finger over the flesh of his wrist. Anne's eyes grew wider, knowing he was going to cut himself.

-What are you doing? She asked shakily, grasping both his hands

-You must feed my love, or you could die. He smiled, then pulled his hands away from her tight grasp. It is important for you vampire to have enough blood. For tonight, I will give you mine. I wont ask you to kill right now. Any way, you are too tired, am I wrong?

She shook her head, even if she didn't liked the fact that she was about to drink blood. And then, the thought that she would have to kill made its way in her thoughts. Dracula placed his hand on her stomach to make her lie down once more. She finally saw him cut his flesh and he placed his bleeding wrist over her mouth.

It felt strange at first and then, oddly, she closed her eyes, savoring the rich nectar of her lovers blood. Once he thought she had had enough, he pulled his wrist back, the flesh cicatrizing instantly and then he kissed Anne's lips, tasting himself on them.

-I love you, my sweet princess.

Fort Chambly stands on the shore of Richelieu river. It has been built in 1711 by the French to protect La Nouvelle-France from the British attacks. It resisted to the time and the war between the French and the British. It has been restored in 1983 and now we can visit it. For more information, just type 'Fort Chambly' in Google or Yahoo. :)
