Chapter 7: Honeymoon p4

The next morning came as the sun once more rose. Ericka was the first to notice it when she slowly opened her eyes. She looked over to see Dracula still sleeping and snoring, though he occasionally twitched as though he were dreaming. She carefully and quietly got out of the bed to get dressed, brush her teeth, comb her hair, and then quietly closed the door after leaving him a note. She was still mad at him from yesterday's fallout, but she should at least let him know where she was going and hoped he trusted her enough to take care of herself. Ericka made her way through the hotel's lobby and took a cab to the Bucharest Mall for a little personal time alone and to buy everyone back home souvenirs.

Still asleep in the suite, Dracula moaned as if in pain while he dreamed a disturbing nightmare. His beloved wife Martha was in danger and he couldn't find her in the fire of their burning home as she called to him. But then he spotted her and there was that Jax pervert bending over her as he forced her down and raped her before shooting her dead with his crossbow and arrow shaped wooden stake. Then Martha's appearance changed to that of Ericka . Ericka screamed for him to stop raping her and she reached out to Dracula for help. He almost got to her before she had a knife pierced into her chest by her rapist.

"NOOO!" Dracula screamed, suddenly waking up after he couldn't take it anymore.

His eyes intensely red and his fangs grew sharper as he snarled viciously, but then he calmed down enough to realize it was only a bad dream. Dracula took a few deep breaths to calm himself and turned with a smile to say 'good morning' to Ericka , but it turned to shock when he realized she wasn't in bed. He searched around the room but she was gone.

"Oh, no!" Panicking, Dracula immediately dressed in his usual attire in a whoosh, just like he did before when was in a towel. And he would have rushed out the door but then a piece of paper on the nightstand caught his eye. It was a note from Ericka explain where she went and she needed to be alone for a while, and not to come after her.

His expression hardened in fury as Dracula crinkled up the note in his grip, conflicted on his first instinct was to go after Ericka to this 'mall' but he sat down on the bed. He felt both angry and hurt that maybe she was right and he should leave her alone for a little while, and hopefully she'll see he only wanted to protect her.

Dracula turned on the television to distract himself and see why else this brand new television was so fascinating to the humans. It wasn't until five seconds later that the Count came to the local news channel, and what he saw on the local news had confirmed his worst fears about yesterday's incident.

"...notable murderer and serial rapist known only as Jax the Rapist, today's modern Jack the Ripper, has escaped police custody in the early hours this morning, after having been arrested at Terra Park yesterday. Police are scouring the city for him and bring him to justice. Citizens are warned to stay away from Jax as he is considered armed and dangerous, and to call authorities immediately should they recognize him..."

Dracula switched off the TV, fear clutching his heart. He stood up straight, knowing he had to find Ericka as soon as possible. He peaked out the window, still covered by the large heavy curtain, to make sure the sun wasn't out so he would have to wear that dumb sunhat, but he was relieved to see there was still some clouds covering the sun. He didn't know how long it would last, since clouds could clear up later in the day. Changing into a bat, he took what he believed would be his only chance and set out to find Ericka as he searched the city for this 'mall' she had traveled to.

Ericka arrived at the mall she had seen in the commercial last night and she was deeply impressed by what she saw. Her eyes widened in awe at how big and vast it was. She made her way through the front door and saw hundreds of people walking through the open promenade of the malls, and many different kinds of shops she noticed, as the only shopping she remembered had been to the village market and a few of its own local shops. This place would put it to shame. Ericka wasn't really sure where to start, so she walked in a random direction and started to explore.

A few hours later, Ericka found it difficult to not buy everything she saw as there was so much to see and do. She wanted to indulge herself and her new freedom to shop and buy. But she kept in mind that she also had to get gifts for everyone after she and Dracula returned home from their honeymoon in another few days. She might be a little peeved with him right now, but she still loves him and remembered her promise of getting a copy of the Kama Sutra for him, which she had to be discrete about with the cashier that she was on her honeymoon.

Ericka explored a few other stores and bought gifts she hoped her family and friends would like; a wild looking Bucharest t-shirt for Johnny, a silver bat necklace for Mavis. While she made her way to a famous clothing store her phone rang. She pressed the answer button on the screen. Mavis and Johnny's faces appeared on the screen, calling her from the other side of the world.

"Hi, Ericka !" Johnny greeted cheerfully.

"Hi, Mom, can you really see us?" Mavis greeted excitedly, since she was still learning about the human world and was fascinated by the way her human friends did 'video chat.'

"Hi, kids. I'm great. Dracula and I are honeymooning in Bucharest," Ericka explained happily, thought it felt a bit forced at the moment.

"Awesome! Oh, and we even got the pictures you e-mailed. They're so cool!" Johnny gave her a thumbs up.

"That's incredible!" Mavis cheered in astonishment. "My dad actually got out of the hotel! Though the only time he got out was the time he had to go to the Vampire Council. Can I say hi to him? I have to tell him about Hawaii; it's so beautiful here!"

Ericka lost her smile. Sighing, she confessed, "Sorry, Mavis, but he's not here with me right now."

"What? Why, where is he?" Mavis asked worriedly. "Is he okay?"

"He's fine," Ericka reassured her stepdaughter. "It's just that I had a scary run in with some creep yesterday who tried to rape me at the amusement park, and your dad's going all helicopter husband on me."

"Oh, God!" Johnny gasped, his eyes bulging. "You were almost raped?! That's terrible!"

But Mavis remained confused at this unfamiliar word. "What's a 'rapist'?"

"Uhh…" Johnny groaned nervously, and then leaned into her ear to whisper the answer in her ear.

Mavis's eyes grew larger than ever in horror and her mouth fell open. Humans actually do that to each other? she thought. And they call my kind monsters! She was so outraged her fangs bared, just her father did whenever he got angry. "How could he... how dare he even try to... if that jackass tried to... I'LL RIP HIM TO SHREDS!"

"Calm down, honey," Ericka tried to calm the young vampire girl. "As you can see, I'm okay. Your dad saved me. I believe he was arrested by the police, so I'm sure I've seen the last of him."

"I don't know, Ericka . Those guys can get pretty obsessive and determined when it comes to rape," Johnny said doubtfully. "What if he escapes and tries to come after you again? Maybe you shouldn't have left Drac."

"I told you, Johnny, I'm fine!" Ericka responded, this time more firmly. "And I know Drac loves me, but I don't want or need him to be overbearing with me. I can take care of myself. Besides, you know I got more than enough of that in my life with my own father."

"I know, Ericka , but still..." Johnny continued, still unsure if this rapist had been caught and Elisa should be out on her own.

Ericka paid no mind to his concern. She happened to look up from her phone, wanting to look at some new clothes for herself, maybe find some cute baby clothes for Wanda and Wayne's next litter of pups, when she happen to see the very last person she expected to see again so soon.

In the crowded mall of shoppers in full view of the entrance door, there was Jax.

Ericka gasped sharply, and absently dropped her phone. But not to draw attention to herself, she started walking deeper into the store to find another way out and try to evade her new stalker. To her dismay, he pursued her, keeping a watchful eye on her. Ericka felt her pulse quicken and sped up the pace, hoping that nearby she could alert a security guard about her stalker.

Jax wasn't entire sure what happened yesterday was real or his imagination running wild, but he had managed to escape police custody and evade another arrest when he escaped the amusement park and knew he had to lay low once again. But he wanted to stroll through the mall for a while, and it was like the work of fate his last target was here at the mall. Jax seized his chance to finish what they had started, and to earn his satisfaction.

"Ericka ? Ericka , are you there?" Johnny called for her from the still connected phone, but Ericka's face was gone from the screen.

Ericka made her way out another entrance of the store she was in and glanced back hoping she had lost the creep, but she saw him following her through the crowd. She sped-walked her way to a glass elevator and squeezed through in time just as the doors were closing, her bags almost getting caught in the door.

But Jax was experienced with this kind of chase, which was only part of the thrill. His trained eye followed her to the next floor and he was able to spot her in the crowd while she went into another clothing store. He followed her up the staircase far behind when he saw her go into a far corner of the store and into the women's bathroom, to which he discretely followed her to.

At that moment, a familiar bat flew through the city determined to find his lost wife, certain she was going to be in trouble after what he heard on the local news channel. Remembering the name of the mall in her letter, Dracula had found the place he had been searching for at last. He flew through the front entrance, and resumed his true form. No one even noticed at how a man in a black cape suddenly appeared from out of nowhere, looking around for his beloved wife but he couldn't find her. He had to stop for a brief moment at the amazing architecture of this 'mall' and it's never ending array of shops, as well as the beautiful sight of the huge water fountain and indoor Christmas trees to give the illusion of being outside, and further in were a few skylights to let in a view of the sapphire sky above.

The Count came back to his senses when he used his clairvoyance powers again, looking for any sign of Ericka . But in a nearby clothing store, he noticed familiar IPhone and heard familiar voices. With incredible speed, he found Ericka's phone and picked it up. To his joy, Mavis and Johnny were still connected.

"Mom! Mom, are you there? What's happening? What's going on?" Mavis was freaking out until she finally saw some movement on her boyfriend's phone's screen and felt relieved when her father's face came into view. "Dad! Oh, thank God."

"Hi, Dracula!" Johnny waved politely.

"Johnny! Mavey-Wavey!" Dracula sighed with relief that his baby girl was alright, and amazed he could see her through his wife's IPhone, but then he remembered Ericka and the predicament he was in. "Where's your mother? I have to find Ericka , I'm certain she's in trouble!"

"I don't know, Dad," Mavis explained. "We were just talking, and all of a sudden she looked like she saw a monster. Uh, no offense on us."

"None taken, honey bat." Dracula waved it away. "Do you know where she is?"

"No, she dropped her phone and was gone. Do you think she's in trouble?"

"It's that damn rapist! He escaped the police! He'll go after her again, I know it!" Dracula growled in righteous anger that the phone almost disconnected when he squeezed it in his inhuman grip.

Placing the IPhone in his pocket, he used his clairvoyance powers or his superhuman smelling, determined to find Ericka even if he had to look throughout the entire mall. Dracula found her in a clothing store bathroom, and that bastard was trailing her, cornering her. Dracula panicked, but he remained calm and knew he had to stop him. Unfortunately, they seemed to be on the other side of the mall, so he flew as fast as he could, flying or running at full speed while he zigzagged through the crowded mall, and leaving a trail of dust behind him in a whoosh as his legs created the sound of runaway train engine, with the expression of anger and determination.

Jax had found his target trying to hide in the women's bathroom of the store, which was so typical. So he locked the door with a personal make shift key and smiled dangerously. "Remember me, sweetheart? I don't know what happened yesterday with that freaking boyfriend of yours, but we're going to finish our little get together now, just the two of us."

"Stay away from me, you bastard!" Ericka cried.

Jax tried to open the stall she was hiding in. Then he kicked and pounded at the door with his shoulder as it made him more angry. Finally, he broke the down the door. Ericka tried to crawl under to the next stalls like a little kid playing hide and seek, but she only got two more stalls down before Jax found her and grabbed her legs, causing her to cry out in pain.

"Not so fast, girl !" Jax snarled.

However, Ericka found the strength she needed when she was lifted up from the floor to kick the guy in the nuts, and he screamed in agony as he grasped between his legs. She quickly banged his head against the stall wall and shoved his head down into the toilet, then flushed it in a classic high school swirly.

But her tenacious victory to bring down the criminal was short lived when he shook off the painful effects of her kick, the ache in his head, and wiped the toilet water off his face as she ran for the door but found it was locked, trapping her with Jax. The next thing she knew Jax had snaked his arms around her, threw her down on the floor with harsh force, and he was on top of her with an insane look in his eyes; a different kind of insanity than that from an old stalker back in high school, but it still frightened her.

"That's enough out of you, bitch! You just made this personal!" Jax snarled at her as he pinned her down with his body, making her shriek with fear.

Jax slapped her across the face again to keep her quiet but Ericka kept on screaming as she struggled harder to try to push him off. He ripped up her skirt and tore off her underwear, and with past experience he rapidly unzipped his pants and pulled down his own boxers. With an insane grin at the thought of his latest conquest, Jax was about to lean down on her and fulfill his desires. Ericka began to cry, certain there was no hope left. Her honeymoon was ruined, and now she regretted having left Dracula back at the hotel. She was all alone.

All of a sudden, there came a animalistic roar of fury as the bathroom door was forcibly torn off its hinges. Dracula appeared in the doorway with blazing eyes, longer and sharper fangs, extended claws, and his cape billowed wildly behind him while blue mist encompassed him. Looking up, Ericka smiled in relief and hope through her tears that her vampire husband had found her just in the nick of time. Jax had froze in surprise at what he was seeing, not believing he was seeing the real, and very pissed off, Count Dracula.

"GET AWAY FROM HEERRR!" Dracula bellowed with an intense otherworldly boom in his voice that seemed to echo throughout the entire building and a beyond.

"WHAT THE WORLD ?!" was all Jax shouted, when Dracula grabbed him with inhuman strength by the neck and pried him off Ericka's body.

The enraged vampire threw him across the store. Jax went careening through the air, his pants flying off his legs, and he crash landed on some clothing displays and female mannequins. Nearby customers and store employees cried in surprise at what they saw. One cashier pressed a hidden silent alarm button to call for security.

"Do you have cobwebs for brains, human?!" Dracula snarled viciously. "I warned you what would happen to you if you dare tried to come after her again! Never again! STAY AWAY FROM MY WIFE!"

Jax groaned while he stood up and tried to shake off the effects of the crash, not even bothering to cover himself up. He drew a gun from his jacket pocket and pointed it at Dracula as the furious vampire count came flying directly at him. He fired several shots from his gun, but he either missed or the bullets passed through Dracula like he was thin air. The vampire body-slammed into Jax and pinned the serial rapist against the wall, growling like a tiger and picked him up by the neck again. Dracula flew them out of the store and held Jax out over the third floor promenade railing. A crowd down below gathered around to see what was going on and what they were seeing was a rather clear view of Jax's buttocks, which most parents had to cover their children's eyes.

The criminal struggled in Dracula's strong grip as he pleaded through a choking manner, "No, please! Don't drop me! Don't let me fall!" Another cowardly human that he was greatly tempted to let fall and have one less despicable human to worry about, one less real monster to have in the world.

"Perhaps you'd rather I sucked your blood then!" Dracula growled with a wicked smile, and that thought was scarier for Jax than the fall. Of course, Dracula was bluffing.

The Count loosened his grip on Jax's neck a bit, making him whimper as he kicked his legs over thin air, but there came the cocking of a gun from behind Dracula when an authoritative voice ordered the vampire, "Put him down, right now!"

Dracula glanced behind him, his eyes still glowing, and he noticed several of the mall's security guards pointing their guns at him, ready to fire if he made any wrong moves, all of them looking at Dracula with apprehensive faces and unsure of what to do or think.

"Officers, wait!" shouted a woman's voice. It was the same female cashier who had summoned them on the silent alarm. "I saw everything. He's not the bad guy."

The lead security officer looked over to see the cashier coming out of the store, helping a frightened and limping Ericka in her torn dress, out of the store.

"That man tried to rape me, and the man in black holding him by the throat is my husband!" A shaken Ericka told them. "He was just trying to defend me, but he gets a little extreme sometimes because he's very protective of me."

"I recognize him from the news," the cashier lady added. "That's Jax the Rapist, the notorious serial rapist and murderer. Besides, don't tell me you're going to shoot and arrest Count Dracula?"

The lead officer lost some of his tenseness in his shoulders at what he heard, but he still felt skeptical about him. "He's still holding Jax over the edge. Listen Count, just put him down on the floor, gently, and we won't shoot."

Resentfully, Dracula did as he was told, but still didn't want to set monsterkind back by hundreds of years. Ericka looked at him with a relieved smile.

As soon as his feet touched the floor again, Jax was immediately cuffed by security. His pants and boxers were thrown back into his face by another store employee who said snippy to him, "Keep your pants on." Some officers laughed at this joke. Down below the people began to applaud and cheer when they had heard everything, having gone deafly quiet and heard what was said by echoes.

Dracula ran straight toward Ericka , throwing his arms around and kissing her nonstop on the face. Ericka returned his embrace, yet she started to cry silently over what she endured.

"It's okay, my beloved," he whispered tenderly to her. "I'm here. It's all over." He shot a threatening glare at Jax from a distain.

Jax looked back at him with such fear that he whimpered to the security officers, "Keep him away from me! Don't let the monster suck my blood!"

But most of the other humans nearby started to laugh at the now wussy and cowardly Jax the Rapist, hoping this would be the last time he ever tried to rape a lady.

Soon the police arrived and arrested Jax for good. As reluctant as Dracula was he and Elisa had to give a statement to the police so as to lock Jax away forever. Only this time, a local news crew had arrived and wanted an interview with the famous vampire, but all he wanted was to be alone with Ericka so he avoided the reporters. The news crew had to take statements and eyewitness accounts, and fortunately, it was all in Dracula's favor as he was hailed a hero and his legend will develop further with humans from now on; from a frightening bloodsucking monster of the night to a redeemed good guy defending his wife's honor and catching a notorious criminal. Although some people said they wouldn't have minded seeing him suck the rapist's blood to be a great form of revenge for his wife's near assault or for other women's assaults, ghoulish though it is.

Ericka was still shaken from her almost rape experience, and while Dracula tried to hold her, she seemed to flinch at his touch every time. He desperately wanted to make her pain go away, even offering to erase her memory of that horrific experience. But being just as stubborn as he was, she refused, though she was very tempted at first.

To avoid any more incidents, Ericka and Dracula decided to return to the RBH. But first, she wanted to go to the mall's food court near the skating rink to pick up something to eat on the way back. Ericka ate a light brunch off egg and ham omelet while Dracula walked her back to the exit. Every now and then he drew glances from curious onlookers who suspected who he was or may have even been in the crowd that saw him dangle Jax.

Upon leaving the mall, Dracula turned into a bat and carried her all the way back to the RBH, which surprised Ericka that he was strong enough to carry her. Reaching their destination he flew them through the window, having been left open by Dracula after he left to go look for her, and changed back to his normal form. Ericka sat down on the bed, hugging her arms to try and comfort herself.

Dracula sat down beside her and gently put an arm around her. For a moment she flinched as though to push him away again. He hesitated for a moment, but then placed an arm around her shoulders. He was extremely relieved she was alright, but he was also peeved with her for leaving him alone at the hotel, and all by herself. He let her know this when he spoke with a hard edge in his voice, "This is why I didn't want you to leave the room, Ericka . How can I protect you if I'm not there? My worst fear of you getting raped again almost came true! Don't ever do that again!"

Ericka aimed him a hard look, underlined with guilt as she sighed in defeat. "I'm so sorry, Drac, I really am. But you know I can't be confined to one place all the time just so I don't get into trouble. I really appreciate you wanting to protect me, I really do. But being overprotective of me isn't just unhealthy, it will only push me away, like my dad did to me, or it almost did with Mavis, remember? I don't want the same thing to happen with us."

The vampire's face softened while he thought deeply about her words. "I don't, either. But at least, at the hotel I know Mavis was safe and you are safe there. And I'm there for the both of you when you need me, like I always should be, like I promised."

She leaned into him, responding in a soft reassuring voice, "Now you know we can't hide away forever and you kept your promise. You were there for me when I needed you the most today, and I know you'll always kept it for the rest of our lives. So can we stay in Bucharest longer, please? Finish our honeymoon the way it should be to have time to ourselves and have some fun. Put this whole mess behind us."

After thinking about it for a while, Dracula smiled at her and gently embraced her. Ericka took it as a 'yes.'

Ericka asked to be left alone and rest for a while so to relax herself. Dracula made her an ice pack for her to put on her face where the red mark from being slapped remained. As he cared for her physical being, Dracula got up to lock the door so they wouldn't be disturbed. When he returned to her bedside, he leaned over her and began kissing her. She noticed his eyes glowing again when their lips parted for air.

"Drac, what do you think you're doing?" Ericka asked, though she already knew the answer.

"I need you, Ericka ." Dracula started breathing heavily as he began removing his jacket and shirt, leaving him shirtless. "And I sense you need me, need me to take away your pain. Only I can have you... not that damn rape of human filth... not those drunken hormonal perverts at the water park. Me. Only me. Because you're my zing."

Dracula kissed her and began massaging her back, causing Ericka to moan in arousing pleasure, as she unconsciously unzipped his pants and pulled down his boxers. For only a moment, the kiss broke as he teasingly gnawed on her neck while she panted, "Oh, God! Here we go again!"

She removed her torn skirt and the rest of her clothing, before he unexpectedly found himself pinned down on the bed by her. Looking up, he could see her smirking down at him. "This time, I'll be the one to dominate a man!" she exclaimed.

Ericka positioned herself over him, while his dick hardened when she grinded him and they felt themselves connected when Dracula felt his tip enter her womanhood. She began gyrating her hips over his waist, holding him down by gripping onto his shoulders. Ericka's face twisted at the pain she endured. Sensing this, Dracula began thrusting his hips up into her as he lifted his legs to support him. He kept a strong hold on her waist as if she could slip out of his embrace any moment.

A strong warmth encompassed their bodies quickly as they moved faster. Ericka felt a sense of being safe, her spirits souring high at this incredible and gentle man she had found showed her they were forever linked by more than physical pleasure alone. Once more a fire ignited inside their loins, and Dracula thrust up into her with vampiric strength, yet she showed him how she was his equal as her rhythm matched his rapid thrusts harmoniously, panting as they quickened the pace.

"Oh, Drac! OHHH, DRAAAAC!" Ericka love began shouting in passion as she felt the oncoming climax within themselves, and Dracula giving panted grunts which steadily became passionate growls when he also felt the crashing wave of orgasm.

Like a lightning bolt shot at them by a storm, the two peaked in orgasm and sealed their lovemaking with a passionate kiss. Ericka passed out on top of him with weakened strength, listening to Dracula's panting of sexual pleasure. Dracula kissed Ericka one more time before they pulled apart and got dressed in different clothes this time.

"Feeling better?" Dracula asked hopefully.

"Much better, thank you." Ericka sighed happily. "It's a good start."

Dracula seemed to be disappointed by that response, but Ericka decided to surprise him. "I got us something that should be a good remedy for us both."

She reached into one of her shopping bags and took out a book, to which Dracula raised an eyebrow of confusion that Ericka seemed to be trying to hide it and only showed it to him. The title he read was the Kama Sutra. He gave it a quick skim, and at first he was further confused by what he read, but some pictures caught his eyes and he became very intrigued.

"We can save it for our last honeymoon night, because there's still so much for us to do," she told him.

They made plans to spend the day, and took the same taxi to a new destination, so they can celebrate more of their honeymoon as it was supposed to be.

For the rest of the week, Dracula and Ericka were having the time of their lives, making the most they could of their honeymoon, whilst Ericka took plenty of selfies and emailed them to their friends and family, and she often took Dracula on tours of the newly changed world he had so long hid himself for two centuries, and every night the two often made mad, hot, passionate love.

They watched a big game in the national soccer arena and were thrilled when the Romanian team beat the British team. Ericka thought of one day teaching the monsters how to play soccer just for fun. But she decided to take Dracula to an indoor sports center to play soccer with him. At first, Dracula had great difficulty in this new game trying to kick the ball, but he either lost his footing when raising his foot in attempt to kick the ball or he got hit in the groin when he tried to block the goalie, but after an hour of practice Dracula won seven goals. As a reward Ericka took him to the RBH's spa to get him, and herself, a soothing couple's massage. Right after the massage, the couple visited the gym for a nice workout (Dracula had crashed into the wall after trying to make the treadmill go at super speed) and then went for a nice relaxing swim in the pool (when the sky was covered by clouds) and later took a quick bath to freshen themselves up for a romantic dinner. After retiring to their room, Dracula pinned Ericka down to the bed where he made love to her, and they stayed that way until they passed out.

The next day she took him shopping, together this time, to a famous clothing store where Ericka bought Dracula a new dark gray shirt and black silk tie to go with it, and he secretly bought her the sexiest black lingerie he could find and was really looking forward to seeing her in it. Then Ericka decided to show him a real human supermarket, as he got curious to what it was and why it was full of human food. His eyes widened in confusion at all the different products and types of food it sold, causing Dracula to believe humans really did cut off monsters' heads off to fill their heads with candy. Ericka laughed at his old misguided belief of Dracula's and explained those are just plastic monster buckets or glass cups filled with candy. While exploring these human stores with his wife, Dracula helped Ericka buy some souvenirs for her boss's family when she told him that she already bought gifts for the Drac Pack.

Later in the afternoon, the newlyweds dressed themselves in a clean black tuxedo and in a short sky blue satin dress. They were going to a romantic Italian restaurant for dinner. But Dracula was terrified because the Italians used garlic in their food, so Ericka made sure the matre'd and the servers promise that not a speck of garlic powder got in their dinner using a story that her husband was highly allergic, but he didn't want that to stop him from savoring a romantic Italian dinner with his wife. She ordered them the classic dish, simple spaghetti mixed in sauce and meatballs with their salad, which the noodles gladly reminded Dracula of a sauce covered worm dish from his hotel. He dug into the pasta to take a bite and discovered that he liked it a lot. Ericka gathered some spaghetti onto her fork and put one end into her mouth and offered the other end to him, which he gladly accepted. They slowly nibbled the spaghetti together while looking at their surroundings. As their faces got closer, Dracula and Ericka chuckled nervously when their lips met at the end. He wanted to do it again and they did do it again, while Ericka took a selfie. Upon their return to the RBH, the newlyweds took a bath before cuddling together on the bed to watch America's Funniest Home Videos, until Dracula took Ericka by surprise and began making love to her before they reached the climax.

The next day, the couple decided to visit a botanical garden full of the most beautiful flowers and plants Dracula had ever seen. He flirtingly told Ericka they paled in comparison to her beauty, and his charming compliment made her blush. They also visited a natural history museum, where Ericka tried to explain about the unusual displays such as what the skeletons of prehistoric creatures were, or about rocks and minerals. One time a robotic dinosaur snarled over their heads, causing Dracula to believe this creature was real and meant to harm them so he shielded his wife and snarled defensively at the robotic lizard. Ericka had to make him stop and pulled him out of the room before anyone got suspicious. Later they went to an art gallery, and Dracula actually recognized some art works of well-known master artists from before he built the hotel, but he was puzzled by the modern day pieces of art, some he thought were good while others he found offensive and tacky.

That same evening they dined at a local diner where Dracula tried his first cheeseburger because he wanted to eat the same thing Ericka ate. After dinner they spent some time at an ice cream parlor, where Ericka got them both classic vanilla and chocolate ice cream. The chocolate ice cream made Dracula cringe because he learned it was made from cow milk and monsters probably aren't used to milk, but as soon as Ericka forced him to try his first lick he loved its sweet taste. He teasingly licked his wife's cheek to lick off bits of ice cream and to feel the taste of both the ice cream and his wife, before it lead to an open-mouthed tongue kiss between the couple until the an employee of the parlor firmly reminded the couple that they're in public. Retiring to their room afterward, this time Ericka overpowered Dracula in the bed so she could be more dominant in their lovemaking, but he always succeeded in overpowering her and fucking her with incredible speed than she did.

The next morning, Ericka got up early to witness the sunrise from their window. She had to wake Dracula up so he wouldn't miss it. While hiding in the shadows, Dracula thought it was most incredible sight he hadn't seen in since his honeymoon with Martha in Hawaii. After ordering in and eating breakfast, the two decided to relax in the room for a while; Dracula reading a book he found in the drawer and Ericka watching a program on TV. But after getting bored of watching TV, Ericka started a game of pillow fight. Dracula didn't understand why she was hitting him with a pillow until he understood why and began playfully swatting her back with his own pillow. The pillow fight contest went on for about fifteen minutes until they collapsed together on the floor. Tired out from their game, although Dracula began kissing his wife intensely, Ericka wanted to take him to the Adventure Park when she found the ad for the park in their drawer.

Along the way, the couple passed a Bucharest university, which Ericka explained was a higher learning institute, a place for perspective scholars. This interested Dracula since he remembered hearing of such places even back in the 19th century, wondering what it had been like for Ericka if she had attended one of these places. She told him about the kind of classes and activities were offered to students; the dormitories where they lived, the campus libraries, museums, campus theater, and where sports were played. As they passed the Sheraton Hotel, Dracula scowled in jealousy as he commented how it appeared much fancier and popular than his own hotel. A sympathetic Ericka cheered him up by saying such hotels like that were more flashy in style than substance, but Hotel Transylvania outclassed such human hotels by miles, boundaries and especially the world. Dracula felt much better at this, remembering such things and met such people, both monster and human, back in the day before. They took a tour of Casa Poporului, aka the Palace of Parliament. Dracula was impressed with the architecture, though it took plenty of explaining by the tour guide or Ericka about what it was used for and how different politics are these days than how Dracula remembered from the 19th century, and what things were like Communism or capitalism, democracy, or what a Chancellor or president was, and why they were leaders instead of kings or queens or other member or royalty, even through they're still around.

The couple paused to look at a grade school along the way, and Dracula watched in nostalgia because of how the children reminded him of Mavis at that young age as he watched them play. When Ericka asked him if he would like to have another child with, after all those days and nights of endless sex, she felt certain she would've become pregnant sooner but has not. Dracula responded to her hopefully that despite his age he knew he was ready for more little ones of their own, but he also wondered why she didn't get pregnant every time they made love, and he hoped to have another child with her.

At the Adventure Park, Dracula grew very protective of Ericka when she strapped herself to a harness and prepared to climb a wall with handholds or footholds Ericka said they were called, but he was less than assured when she told him to lighten up and she was going to be fine. As Ericka climbed higher, Dracula would often magically levitate near her enough to catch her if she fell, which both reassured and annoyed her. So to mess with him Ericka climbed higher and faster, and even once pretended to fall and he freaked out, but she laughed at his reaction and Dracula scolded her to never scare him again. She eventually convinced him to try it without using his powers, which he did, yet he felt ridiculous for wearing a helmet and wanted so badly to use his powers but his wife remained firm. The couple later had a light lunch from one of the park's food trucks and got classic hotdogs, which Dracula quirked an eyebrow at the hotdog because it resembled a dick. Giggling, Ericka flavored up her hotdog with some ketchup and a light drizzle of his blood substitute on his own hotdog. They ate dinner at the local diner again, and Dracula ate what Ericka ate; a chicken pot pie. Returning to their room at the RBH, Ericka convinced Dracula to watch 1998's Godzilla before turning in for the night. Although Dracula felt offended and pitied how they portrayed the giant lizard monster as the bad guy in the movie, he would often ask questions about what he didn't understand like science and reporters and the army etc. But then he felt inspired to make love with Ericka during a kiss scene before the ultimate climax of the car chase, even though they tumbled off the bed the second they reached their own climax the newlyweds laughed it off. As soon as the movie came to and end, the two shut off the TV and returned to bed for a good night's sleep.

The next morning, Ericka wanted to do something a little more relaxing. While Dracula thought it meant something kinky, Ericka decided to take him to a movie instead where they could cuddle together in the dark and watch a great movie, Frankenweenie. Dracula thought the giant movie theater to be some outrageous and wondrous form of human magic cause it was entirely different than those scary human movies he used to watch at the hotel, which made Ericka giggle amusingly. Several times he covered his sensitive ears to block out the loud HD surround sound or he wanted to talk over the movie to ask a question, which she harshly shushed him and forced him to watch in silence. When the movie was over, he told her how he felt offended by this evil vampire cat and cried at the sad moments including the part where Sparky came back to life reminded him of how his buddy, Frank, was first brought to life, but Dracula still asked lots of questions about this 'stop-motion' in movie making and asked about this Tim Burton, yet Ericka didn't mind explaining it all to him since she was into Burton's films.

While Dracula was deeply impressed and blown away by the movie and wondered how it was done, he remembered fondly and compared it to being better but also lacking in seeing a live stage play he used to see with Martha back in the old days. Ericka decided to take him to see a live play in the park, one by Shakespeare 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.' The theater made Ericka chuckle at how the play had some themes with the supernatural like her husband was a supernatural being himself. Dracula often whispered jokes to her on how Hermia's father could sound a lot like Ericka's own brother and would try to ask questions about the characters when Ericka had to shush him to be quiet and said she would tell him after the play.

After returning to the RBH, Ericka thought it was such a beautiful afternoon and decided to go the beach. Dracula got so worried to almost being paranoid about the visible sun that Ericka packed extra sunscreen, hats and sunglasses to calm her vampire husband's worries, even if she knew he was overreacting. It was dusk by the time they arrived at the beach and she sourly told him they didn't really need all this stuff after all. He shot a hard look at his human wife. They changed into their swimsuits, and the first thing Ericka wanted to do was build a sand castle. This confused Dracula when he thought they were going to build a huge castle made of sand so it took a lot of explaining from Ericka to what she truly meant. So they built a sand castle together using wet sand and decorating it with shells, and the sandcastle turned out pretty well due to the vampire's artistic nature since he was a spectacular artist.

Coincidently, they noticed a BBQ party being celebrated close by. This confused Dracula to concern because he thought humans intended to barbecue monsters. Rolling her eyes at his ridiculous outdated beliefs, Ericka had to drag him to the BBQ to show him it was about food and having fun. When they got there, the area was filled with tables and seats, tiki torches, gourmet tents with every BBQ grill, delicious meats and fish, cool drinks, and a digital stereo playing popular beach songs. Dracula was recognized by the partygoers from the news channel of the Jax the Rapist story, and the couple was given a nice private table to sit at the beach. Ericka ordered them shrimp and kabob, which Dracula found he surprisingly liked the grilled shrimp, while Ericka ate her own shish kabob. They started dancing with more of Dracula's admiring fans to the Elvis song Slicing Sand playing on the digital stereo.

After the BBQ was over they returned to their private spot where they rested on their towels for at least five minutes and snuggled together when they noticed a few nighttime water skiers in the distance. Sitting beside Ericka brought back memories for Dracula. The BBQ, the beach, and the water skiers all reminded him of a luau he attended in Hawaii and snuggling with Martha on the beach during their honeymoon while watching his friends water ski with a sea monster in Hawaii a long time ago. Suddenly Ericka decided to have some fun by jumping onto the sandcastle and smooshing it. Dracula grunted in frustration at all their hard work demolished, but when he caught that playful grin on her face, he realized what she was doing and he aimed a sly grin at her. He chased her into the ocean for a nighttime swim, splashing each other like crazy with sea water. She threw herself into his embrace, laughing heartily after the force of her body weight knocked him to the ground, until they gazed happily into each other's eyes.

The vampire's blue eyes reflected the moon and his pale wet skin glimmered under the moon's light. As if hypnotized, Ericka leaned forward to give him a loving kiss, which Dracula returned with equal affection, and their making out transformed into fiery passion under the moonlight. He could feel himself becoming aroused by her sitting atop his crotch. He reached around her back to unhook and remove her wet bikini top. Once she felt her exposed breasts come in contact with his chest, she drew back and warned him that somebody might see them. But he didn't care and said he'd erase their minds, and resumed back to ripping her wet bikini bottom off and then ripped off his wet swim trunks. He tossed her body over on the wet sand and positioned his erection over entrance, lifting his head up with a devilish smirk. She nodded, allowing him to what he pleased.

Dracula pushed his manhood deep inside of her, causing Ericka to gasp in slight pain but then moaned in pleasure as he began pumping in and out of her with vigor and lust. They started breathing harder as he sped up the pace, her hands clutching at his back and her legs pressed against his butt, drawing him, guiding him to go deep into her. Soon, the crashing of waves of not just the ocean but of another climax crashing within them when Dracula's cum shot spread up in Ericka's cunt, both of them screaming in their cathartic bliss, especially when the sea water struck them from behind. The echoes of their screams made any passersby look around in confusion, fortunately they shrugged it off and the couple was left in peace.

The newlyweds returned to the motel after Ericka realized how late it had gotten, and they needed to rest for the remaining fun time of their honeymoon. The last day of their honeymoon arrived, and Ericka would fulfill a promise to her husband of one day alone together in bed. With the new lingerie he got her, and the Kama Sutra, Dracula indeed felt like the happiest vampire on Earth.
