You were running away from a few lycans, they wanted your blood and flesh. You never knew why this Village was filled with things like these or how you were even able to live here with them, but all you knew is that you had to run. There was no place to hide, other then the Castle ahead of you. Fear started to rise inside of you, this Castle was known for nothing but blood and death, none of the people who entered this Castle ever made it back out alive.

But it didn't matter, you either get eaten alive by lycans, or die a surprising death by the Castles owner.

You sprinted inside the Castle and closed the door behind you, only to hear the desperate growl of lycans, trying to feast on you. You exhaled deeply and looked around the well decorated home. A few stairs up you saw a portrait of three women, there was a golden sign beneath it, naming the three.

{Bela, Cassandra and Daniela}

You continued to explore the big Castle and entered, which seemed to be a main hall. In there you saw a woman cleaning the floor. The woman turned around and was startled, bowing down first and then looking at you, seeming rather relieved.

"Wh-who are you? Intruders are not allowed inside! Do you have any idea what happens to them?" she asked you. You shook your head and tried to explain your situation,

"I was running away from a few lycans, I could've died there if I didn't hide myself soon enough!"

"This Castle isn't safe either..." her voice quietened and you heard some weird noise approaching you.

"What's this? New blood? Oh, Mothers going to love this~" a woman appeared in some sort of fly swarm and grabbed you by the legs, pulling you through the hall.

"Hey! Let me go!" you tried to struggle the womans grip, so she sunk a sickle into your leg, making you scream in pain.

"Such a feisty one!" she giggled and continued to drag you around the Castle, down a few stairs and entering a bunch of rooms, finally stopping inside one. She let go of you and pulled out the sickle, continuing to hurt your leg even more. You sat yourself up against the wall and looked around the room, only to see a very tall lady sit on a chair.

"Mother. I caught an intruder" the woman pointed at you and looked to her Mother. The tall lady stood up and turned to you, she was way taller then you thought. She wore a large black sunhat, a long white dress covering every part of her body. She also wore leather gloves and a few accessories, such as a necklace resembling a flower with two swords piercing through it and three black roses next to her chest.

"Good work, Cassandra. Now let me have a look at her" she came closer to you and stopped, looking back to her daughter. Cassandra nodded and picked you up, slicing your arm open to let it bleed. You yelped in pain and tried to struggle, but the tall lady grabbed your arm and wrapped her hand around it, pulling it closer to her mouth. She licked off the blood that was dripping down from the wound and then proceeded to suck the rest of the blood. You were disgusted by the sight and felt sick, you couldn't even pull away, her grip was so strong, it was scary.

The Lady finished and sighed satisfyingly, her daughter gave her a napkin to clean off the rest of your blood around her lips.

"Your blood is certainly very delicate, it would be a shame to kill you right away" she looked at Cassandra.

"Yes Mother." her daughter disappeared in a swarm of flies, leaving you alone with the Lady for a few minutes.

"Instead of killing you. From now on you will be working for me, understood?" she grabbed your face, holding it tightly and making you look at her.

"Why should I?!" you glared into her eyes, which were glowing brightly in the light of the fireplace, they almost looked golden.

"Oh? Aggressive behaviour? Weren't you the rat who came into my Castle?"

She chuckled and lifted her other hand, extracting claws. Your heart dropped and you felt a big clump form inside your throat.

"You either work for me, or die a very, painful death~" she retracted her claws and let go of your face. Her daughter was back with a dress, handing it to you.

"Get dressed and look for the other Maiden, she will teach you what you have to do around here"

You looked at the dress and then back to the lady. There was no other choice then to agree.

"Alright..."

The Lady smiled,

"Good girl. Welcome to House Dimitrescu~"
