The Request

Chapter seven

I stood at one of the large windows in our bedroom and gazed down on the destroyed land below. Kain’s reign was approaching it’s 9th century and I wondered how much longer we could survive as we did with less and less humans populating the land and more and more vampires being sired to fuel Kain’s son’s foolish wars with each other. Not that the brothers ever fought among themselves, they bickered but nothing drastic and always silenced with a word or look from Kain or myself. The brothers pit their fledgelings against each other for sport as eternity was a long time to fill with nothing.

I myself was now a powerful vampiress. My powers had finally reached the stage where they were almost on a par with my Lord’s. Not equal to him or surpassing him in any way, to achieve such a thing would mean certain death to me – in spite of his love for me – or to any other vampire whom should dare such a thing. Kain had announced me as his Queen to the rest of Nosgoth shortly after my 200th year and we had travelled all across the land for him to show me off. His pride was evident and although he was powerful and wise, he still asked my advice on certain matters regarding more sensitive subjects.

Melchiah was one constant problem for Kain to deal with. Being the weakest of his sons, he was constantly picked on by his elder brothers and they could be very cruel. With the permission of my sire I would teleport to Melchiah’s underground caverns to offer him comfort when he was injured by a particularly viscous attack by one of his brothers, normally Zephon who could be very cold and cruel. I would stay for a few days, instructing his servants and looking after him until he was well again. Of late these attacks were becoming more frequent and nasty and I sighed deeply. I decided that on Kain’s return I would make a point of asking him to do something about it.

Whenever I left the Sanctuary for one of these trips, Kain I know would pace the halls, restless waiting for my return. He found little comfort even in Raziel’s arms though he loved him deeply as his favoured first-born son and we shared many happy hours, the three of us just enjoying each others company and usually ending up with us all in Kain or Raziel’s bed asleep, passion spent for another night.

When I was away though, Kain had told me it was like a part of him was missing and he could not rest until I returned. I felt like this now as Kain was currently away on one of his tours of the clan strongholds. This would normally take him away for at least a month and I would take to stalking the hallways feeling hollow and empty. On his return we would spend a good two or three days just being alone passion taking us more times than we cared to count.

I looked forwards to his return on this occasion more than ever as I had a request for his approval. I hoped I would be granted my wish as it would help with the lonliness I felt when he was away. Raziel visited me often but he had his own clan to attend and couldn’t be with me a lot of the time. When he did visit we did not indulge in any passion though I would have liked it and so would he. But we both knew that to consent to such a thing in Kain’s absence would mean death to us both. While Kain was there, that was fine because he was always the master but never when he wasn’t. I felt so very frustrated when Raziel was near and I couldn’t feel his expert hands roaming over my body, seeking to drive me ever higher. I sighed again. Kain had said I could always use a slave to satisfy my desires while he was absent, knowing that I would only use then purely out of need. Afterwards they would always be drained as soon as I had reached my climax. Most of the time they died with a look of pure ecstasy on their faces and It made me smile to know how easily I could manipulate them into pleasing me both male and female I indulged and then cast them aside like rag dolls when I had finished. These mortals sated me a little but it was not enough. I wanted more….

A noise the other side of the door interrupted my thoughts and sensing him near I waited with growing anticipation, the past moments thoughts having given me an ache between my legs as I longed for the one I knew would be striding through the door and holding his arms out to me for a passionate embrace.

The door opened and there stood my Lord and master. He stepped in and closed the door behind him. Turning to face me I recognised the intense passionate hunger in his eyes as his arms reached out to me. I rushed into them and he held me tight stroking my hair and feathering kisses on it.

He didn’t need to say a word. I knew by how tightly he was holding me that he had missed me dreadfully and I looked up at him to be rewarded by a hard kiss on the lips. His desire was fierce his hands raking over me now tearing at my clothing which looked much like his own apart from a light covering over my breasts, I wore the same armour, leather pants and clan cloak as he himself did and it was now removed with swift, deft movements. I in turn removed his with the same speed and passion freeing his body to my ministrations.

Still with his lips on mine he bore me over to the bed and laid me on it. We tore at each other in our passion claws raking red bloody welts across our skin and soacking the bed. The smell of his blood drove me wild and I leaned forwards to lap it up causing him to writhe and twist in pleasure as in turn he lapped up my own spilled blood. Having licked off all I could, I turned my attention to his length and teased it with my tongue. He shifted round and I lay back allowing him to bear it down to my waiting mouth. I opened my legs and he buried his face between them sucking and licking with force. I suckled him fast until I could feel him tense as I fely my own release near. I pushed him off and he shifted round again. I brought my legs up and wrapped then round him as he teased my entrance for a minute or two making me cry out with the need to be released.

He then plunged into me and rammed every bit of him into me as hard as he could. Time and time again until I bucked and screamed out as an orgasm ripped through me making me completely delirious with pleasure. My claws dug deep into his flesh drawing more blood and as it dripped onto my face I opened my mouth and tasted him. Still he kept going until he shouted and poured his undead seed deep into me. Seeing me covered in blood below him he bent down the desire for more shining in his eyes. He bit into me and drank deeply. At the same time I sank my own fangs into his shoulder and tasted the sweetness of him.

We finally separated and lay next to each other his arm around me, and my head resting on his shoulder.

‘I missed you so much.’ He sighed and kissed the top of my head.

‘Mmm I never would have guessed.’ And sitting up, I grinned at him mischeviously.

‘You’re so beautiful.’ He murmured and I wondered if this was a good time to bring up my request.

‘I wonder if I might ask something my Lord.’ I began, he inclined his head allowing me to ask. ‘I get terrible lonely when you are not here my Lord, which is very frequent of late. I wonder, might I sire a fledge of my own? She would be company for me when you are on your long trips and maybe even more fun for you on your return.’ I added my meaning clear.

‘I do not wish for more that you or Raziel to share my bed,’ he said ‘But you are welcome to sire a fledge of your own for company and even a little more when I am not around.’ I smiled at him relieved he had granted my request. I had never before sired a fledge of my own and the thought of it thrilled me. Reaching down under the silken sheets I discovered the object of my search and began to massage my sire into readiness again. I disappeared under the coverings and as I slid my mouth over his rapidly hardening member I felt him tense with building desiwantwanting me all over again.

Our lovemaking this time was at a much slower and leisurely pace, not needing to be released so badly we could indulge for several hours slowly building ourselves up to the inevitable crescendo of passion we knew so well how to create.

Hours later we fell asleep comfortable in each other’s arms.

Waking up I found Kain had left me. I knew exactly where he had gone as he always did after attending to me, he would pay a visit to Raziel’s castle and the two would be reunited. I closed my eyes and concentrated on him. His aura reached out to me and my senses followed it to Raziel’s home where in my mind’s eye I could see them indulging in the very same act that we had been a few hours before. I watched the scene for a minute enjoying the familiar ache that was beginning to stir in my groin. I broke off the vision then and upon dressing I headed out of the door feeling the need to feed quite strong then for the first time in a few days.

As I grew older with the passing centuries, The need to feed often grew less. I now only needed a feed every few days instead of every night, this left me free to enjoy other things. I had spent many hours in Rahab’s library reading or listening to his stories when he was there and not at his abbey. At other times I would visit Dumah where he would give me long and detailed accounts of the many wars he had won and how many ‘filthy scum humans’ he had slaughtered. The thought of blood made my thirst stronger and I descended to the dungeons to seek out a meal.

I wondered along the corridors, peering in through the barred doors at the occupants. Most of them were whimpering, lying on the dank and grimy floors crying for their mothers or just to be let out. I ignored these sorry excuses for humans and came to the cells where the more recent prisoners were housed.

I heard her well before I saw her. The voice was loud and demanding to be let out. I paused by her cell door and when I looked through at her, I was greeted wth a pair of jade-green eyes that flashed their anger and defiance. Taking a silver key from my belt, I unlocked the door and went it.

‘Let me out, I have done nothing!’ she demanded. I wondered if this insolent girl knew who I was even. Though she angered me, her spirit was something I admired in her and in a split second I knew I had found my fledge.

I walked over to her and raised a talon to her face. She blanched and tried to back away but her manacles stopped her.

‘You are a beauty.’ I remarked, taking in her fine features and soft auburn hair, which fell long past her shoulders. ‘I believe I will have you brought to my room and you shall know the true meaning of being released.’

The girl looked suddenly scared. ‘W-what are you going to do?’ she stammered

‘Hush dear heart.’ I soothed as I stroked her face, yes this one was perfect and woulke ake a good strong vampire. ‘You have nothing to fear from your Queen.’ Yet I added to myself as I knew she would fear me when she found out my intentions. Unlike myself who had practically begged Kain to turn me, I sensed that this girl would not be so willing.

At the mention of who I was the girl had looked shocked and now stood with head bowed towards me. No she had not realised my identity. I wondered if her family had sheltered her in some way. I brushed these thoughts aside as I had much more important things to see to.

Leaving the girl in her cell and locking the door behind me, I gave instructions to the guard to have her cleaned up and made presentable to me, he hurried off and I continued down the corridor until I spotted a male prisoner. Unlocking the door I stepped in and drained the human of his life, before returning to our private chambers and waiting for the girl who was soon to become my first fledge.

Normally vampires who were my age, had sired many fledgelings however, as Kain had his sons to sire any new fledgelings we usually didn’t feel the need to. This time was different and I wanted one of my own to raise and nurture and train in all the ways of a vampire. I would first place a memory spell over her so that she had no recollection of her human life as it has been discovered, it was much simpler to mould and shape your fledgelings if they had no recollection of their past lives. I made it a much easier task when they learned to kill, regarding their previous fellow humans merely as their next meal. I remembered when I had first woken up after being granted the dark gift and Kain had brought me a human to feed from. I had little regard for them even though I could recollect my human life. My situation had been different. I had hated being human and had longed to be a vampire.

I had watched the siring of fledgelings often when one of Kain’s sons created a new one. I knew exactly what to do and would have a few servants on standby when she awoke as I knew she would need to feed.

I returned to my rooms and had the slaves put fresh linen sheets on the bed. Settling in the chair by the fire, I awaited the arrival of the girl.

Not to long after there was a knock at the door and two slaves arrived escorting the girl with them. She had been recently bathed and smelled of fresh herbs. I could sense the fear she was feeling and I drank it in. With a wave of my hand the slaves retreated bowing low and I was left alone with the girl. I rose up and towered over her. My advance in years adding to my height, I was not as tall as my master but not too far off it.

She looked at me fearfully and I reached out and stroked her face. She tried to move away but my hand moved down and held her arm. I guided her over to the bed.

‘Lie down.’ I commanded and she tensely did as she was bid. I climbed on the bed and straddled her. I ran my hands over her chest feeling the swell of her breasts under the thin clothing she wore. Desire roused in me but I pushed it aside knowing that the time for that would come later. I lowered my mouth to hers and kissed her full on the lips. She gasped and arched her back. Few humans knew the pleasure of a vampire’s kiss and this one was obviously enjoying it.

I left her mouth and trailed down the side of her face to rest near her ear. Her pulse throbbed loudly in my ears begging for me to drink.

‘What is your name.’ I whispered into her ear.

‘Alinza.’ She breathed.

‘This may hurt a bit but only for a moment.’

Moving a little further down I bared my fangs and sinking them into her neck, I began to drink.
