My teeth sank into his delicate throat, I pulled his sweet blood into my mouth swallowing it and pulling out more, not stopping until he was completely and utterly drained. I dropped the man's body inspecting my clothes for blood-spots, years of practice meant I could feed and stay relatively clean at the same time. A young vampire came and took the empty body away from me, I hadn't been quite so full in a long time, Maria rewarded me greatly for accomplishing dangerous tasks outside of her borders.
It really was a shame that she was so repetitive; attack other vampires, make more newborns, kill the useless ones. Usually, her top two -me and Bella- ended up doing all of that for her. Rushing wind hit my ears, I turned to face whoever was running at me just as Bella was stopping.
"Did you do it?" I hissed in a low register.
"Armand. Did you doubt me?" Bella practically purred in response
"Naturally" I bared my teeth slightly "You have a way of changing your mind"
Bella laughed "I want out, her games bore me. I gave him a message to pass on."
I watched as she pushed past me, "Maria went North this morning, she didn't say where she was going." I laughed "Good luck finding her."
"I've never had a problem before Armand" Bella ran off leaving me alone.
I turned to leave myself but stopped when I saw Maria behind me, her teeth bared "So it's true, she plans to try to leave."
"Yes, she fell for my act easily and failed your test." I bowed my head as a sign of respect
Maria smirked "Such a shame, she is such an excellent fighter and keeps such good control of the newborns." She let out a sigh, purely for dramatics, before continuing "Pick one of the gifted newborns nearing the end of their first year, train them up to take her place. Once someone is ready to take her position she will be cured of her immortality." With those final words she left me alone.
Reviews mean updates! No review. No update. I will not update a fic no-one appreciates.
