Hello there! I'm back again! Sorry for that pause, but there are two more chapters in which Gabriel would discover his partner from her new sides ... not the best ones. Waiting for your reviews!

Chapter 4

Knowing her better

As soon as the moon reached her throne in the sky, hunters left the priory to seek for the answers … And what is the best place to get the newest information?

They entered the tavern called "At Saint" and settled around a small table in the darkest corner. The tavern was dirty and God forsaken place near the forest with quite numerous and colorful public.

Van Helsing, whose face was covered with scarf, was looking around attentively, eyes widely open and muscles tensed, surprised to see so many night creatures mixed with humans. Vladimirine was the other. She relaxed and was exchanging glances with some cute guys, while drinking wine.

"What sort of information can we get here? Better to speak with farmers or some other real witnesses." Gabriel offered, feeling a bit jealous.

How beautiful and seductive his partner was and every time the goblet touched her soft tender lips … why was it so hot here?

"We'll just waste the time! Get some drink and enjoy yourself. See those four opposite us?" Vladimirine whispered into his ear and even, he thought, nibbled it playfully. They faced to the table, she showed, and the hunter squeezed his arbalest tighter because of what he had seen there. A young man was drinking with the company of demons. Few whores-demonesses were pleasuring him under the table and dark shadows were moving closer to him.

"Calm down, my friend. Sit here and watch my tactic of saving foolish mortals." saying this, Maria unbuttoned her shirt on half, showing hot breasts out of max, then took off the ribbon, letting the dark gold to stream down her shoulders and back. Van Helsing was amazed with this incredible change. Her brown eyes lit up with hell fire, her body sway so sexy while going and that aura of hers was intoxicating.

And he could only gaze her pushing away those whores and settling on human's lap. First demons hissed on her, but Dracula's daughter simply found the way to their friendship. Gabriel couldn't hear what they were talking about, but he could see every gesture of his partner's game. She was a good actress. Demons flirted with her easily and she answered back. The hunter became fond of her. Just the way she laughed, the way her beautiful brown eyes, so familiar to his heart, burnt up with this wild fire drove him mad.

What a lucky that guy was when touched her thighs and kissed her neck… Van Helsing felt a strange fever in his whole body. Uncontrollable emotions have been throwing out like his mind was a geyser. Just damn woman, so easily she took place in his heart, covering Anne's portrait. Anne … Sweet angel of past, the one, whom he loved dearly. The man looked at his hands, feeling her scarlet blood on them. He killed her, no matter that he was a werewolf, he'll never forgive himself.

But where's Mary?

Oh, she had taken the young man on her back with words, "Time to have some fun, ah? I choose him." Demons laughed. They were still thinking the woman is on their side.

Gabriel watched her fragile yet strong body carried upstairs its heavy burden and decided to follow. It was darker on the first floor, but hunter's eyes could see everything. He was quite amused when noticed Vladimirine at the deathly drunken man. Her eyes were glowing in the dark so beautifully, just like her tender skin.

"Stop gazing and help me to carry him out of here," her voice sounded serious, even a bit annoyed. Van Helsing didn't argue. Together they put him down on the ground throw the window using curtains, then jumped to the 'victim' and carried him to the nearest church.

"Better to kill those demons …" Gabriel said when they were sitting on the dry land near the forest, having a little rest.

"Well, if I were you – maybe, but your method could hurt that guy. I have my own secret weapon I use when it possible."

Dracula's daughter lied down, crossing hands under her head.

"I love them …" she whispered, dreamingly.

"What?"

"Stars … They're so beautiful, but so cold …"

"You're beautiful." he answered, getting red immediately; still he could see she wasn't laughing.

"I heard this thousands of times, I believe, yes. Hmm, the sunrise is close …"

"And we got no information."

"But saved a human."

"Indeed."

"I have some unfinished work to do." Vladimirine rouse suddenly.

"Where're you going?"

"To one place. Take this and goodbye!"

She disappeared in the breaking night, leaving him alone with his misery and a letter, with such words:

"Inviting you, human Gabriel Van Helsing, on a Celebration of Lady Maria's Birthday. Dress code: as you wish …
