After we walked quite far away from the house, I abruptly stopped. I stared backwards and asked, "Can I bring my Bat since he's here?"
"Is he one of your possession?" The were-wolf asked.
I nodded and he finally replied, "Yes. If he's one of your possession, you may have him with you along the way to Vampire Land."
I was glad for the answer. I didn't really get the idea of why did the Dracula wanted me back since he's the one who banished me from our homeland and yet, asking me to return there. But, for my curiosity, I swallowed my fear and obediently followed his order because I knew that nothing good would come if I decline his order. Finally, after walking for quite a long time since I didn't know how to teleport myself, we finally arrived at Vampire Land where I was presented upon his almighty Dracula himself.
"What is it that you have come to summon me, Dominion?" I knelt before him, showing him some honor.
"After a long time, I finally realized that I was wrong for banishing you from Vampire Land. You have that exaggerating sensation of blood that almost all vampire has ever desired especially those of the vampire hunters," He played his riddle once again and this time, I understand it very well what was he meant by it.
"My, I'm honored that his great one keep his eyes on me all these times," I replied.
"My, my... That isn't what I was talking about. You, who possessed that blood of the Pure-blood is what I've been searching for. It's such a great loss to have almost all the Ashley family annihilated, my greatest regret. But now, I will make amend and we shall start a new life. I'll take you as my bride, my lady and be sure to be prepared a week from now," He gave one of his smile that made my hair behind my neck stand.
For my greatest horror, I was overwhelmed with fright that I couldn't react or even utter a single word, not upon him nor any other vampires who walked passed me with those look of jealousy and hatred for I was to be announced as his great one's Bride, the ruler of Vampire Land, the great Dracula. I was too shocked to cry that Bat had no idea what to do. Finally, I gave up my mind.
"Bat, I need you to do me a favor. Go and find Hans and tell him what has happened and return with a banquet of flowers," I whispered.
"I will, but, what is with that banquet of flower anyway?" He asked.
"I can't explain it now for that the wall might be eaves-dropping."
And so, he finally blasted-off to get Hans to save me from being the Dracula's bride. Being a bride of a Dracula had been a dream of all female vampires and I was included once back then but now, I came to realize that my heart held no longer of that dream since I already knew what my heart desired most. Suddenly, the door flung right open and the stature of my two female cousins that were Cyano's sisters stood still upon me.
"Lyra, what is she trying to do? Ordering a Bat to do something that supposedly be done by us that is by 'a certain reason' that we should obey?" Lana mocked.
"I'm not sure. But, that murderer that killed our precious Brother," Lyra gave me one of her disgusted look.
"I... I asked him to pick up some flowers. That's all," Deep in my heart, I hope that Bat was doing fine.
At the same time, Bat who had strongly flew all the way to fulfill his task finally arrived towards the vampire hunters' manor. He quickly grabbed Hans sleeve and shouted, " You must save Lady Natalya!"
Hans turned towards him in alert, "Hey, slow down, what's going on? Where's she? What happened?"
All the hunters had their ears on without Hans noticing and even their mother was strongly occupied with the conversation too.
"Miss Natalya is forced to be the Dracula's bride since she has that blood of the Pure-blood. A Pure-blood is rare to be found and he is looking forward for a new breed! And, she has a week approximately before the matrimony took place!" He explained briefly.
Hans balled his hands into fists and exclaimed fiercely, "Take me to where she is."
Suddenly, all six hunters including mom blocked his path from pursuing his way from continuing his journey. Hans frowned and asked furiously, "What are you doing?! Move aside!"
"No can do big bro," Luce uttered.
"You can't deal with all the vampires even if you are strong. You are out-numbered. Your strength is only only enough to eliminate the Dracula," Luca continued.
"So, we think you may need some company," all three Charle, Lyle and Kyle said in chorus.
"So, wanna kick their asses out?" Ruth grinned.
"I'll be rooting for you. Please bring back my daughter (In-law) okay," She smiled.
"Everyone..." Hans was astounded by all of their willingness to help him.
"Don't get the wrong idea big bro, we're doing this for the sake of her cuteness. It'll be a pain to have such cutey pie to be someone else's bride," Ruth smirked.
"Whatever, lets get going!"
Off they went with Bat leading the way all through vampire land just to save me who was to be the Dracula's bride. Will they make it in time? Who knows. Only those who were related to vampire land could traverse there in a short time but those who weren't would have to travel a longer journey.
To be continued.
