Dracula's Lost Love

Chapter 4

Dracula woke with a smirk upon his lips, feeling at joy when he felt the familiar feeling of someone from his past. She's coming. I can feel that she will be making her way to me soon. There is no way that she would be able to resist the urge to find out more about her past. She will want to learn more about why she's having those "dreams." Soon my precious Lilith you will be where you truly belong. Only this time my love, nobody will take you away from me, Dracula thought to himself. Dracula walked through the castle with the smirk upon his face not going unnoticed by his three brides.

"Do you see the smirk upon the master's face," Marishka asked.

"Yes. I wonder what he his thinking about, to make him smirk like that," Aleera whispered.

"The both of you should know better than to question the master and what he does. It's none of our concern as to what he is thinking about that is making him smirk like that," Verona lectured.

Aleera rolled her eyes. "You're one to talk, Verona. You're the one who is wanting to know why the master is smiling when he does on those rare occasions that he does smile. Lets face it. The master never smiled like this when he looks at us. You don't suppose he has found someone to replace us, do you?"

"You three know that I can hear everything that you are saying. If you have something that you want to say, you might as well come out and say it now. I don't want to hear any more ridiculous whispers about how I'm replacing you; nor do I want to hear any jealousy about who is making me smile more. If I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand anyway," Dracula snapped at the three brides.

"We are willing to try our best to understand what you have to tell us," Marishka said.

"Please master, tell us who or what has you smiling in a way that we cannot get you to smile," Aleera asked.

"Someone who I lost long ago is making her way back into my life once again. This time I don't have any intention of losing her like I did the first time," Dracula said.

"Why do you chase after a woman who left you long ago," Aleera asked.

Dracula turned and hissed at Aleera. "I didn't let her walk out of my life all of those years ago. She was stolen from me. And not in the way that you are thinking. The young woman whom I was arranged to marry had been murdered in cold blood. The very person who murdered her, waited for me to find her. Then they waited until I was alone, so that way they could murder me as well. If only I had known that there was someone who would stoop as low as to go and murder the woman I loved. But that doesn't matter now. What does matter is that I'm going to be reunited with my love soon. This time nobody is going to take her away from me. I will destroy anybody and everybody who gets in the way of me reuniting with my love."

"What about us? How are you going to explain us to the so-called love of your life? Are you going to tell her that you couldn't wait around to find her; and that you needed female companions to make you feel satisfied at night," Aleera asked shocking both Verona and Marishka with how bold she was acting towards the master.

Dracula glared at Aleera as if he was going to kill her on the spot. "How I explain you and the other two is none of your concern. All that you need to worry about is that you are going to be gaining a new sister, and you are going to treat her like you treat Verona and Marishka. Should I find out that you treat her any differently than the other two, you are going to wish that you had never messed with her in the first place." Dracula then walked away leaving a shocked Aleera standing there.

"We told you not to push the master over the edge. Now you really done it. I hope for your sake you learned something from this experience. If you didn't then you are going to get yourself killed. You should know better than to speak to the master like that," Verona lectured.
