I can't believe it... vampires really exist!!! - Part 3

You just sat there staring not moving an inch, “Lilly… are you ok?” Dante asked.  “I-is this your h-house?” you asked stuttering pointing to a huge castle behind the gate you were standing in front of. Dante looked in front of him “Uhm… yea it is, is there something wrong with it?” he asked looking at you. “Oh yea there is… it’s insanely huge!!” you said waving your hands around. Dante laughed “Yea I guess it is” he said smiling. You looked at Dante as he picked up a small little remote-like thing and spoke to it “Walter, please open the gates” “Yes sir” a voice said from the little remote. You were staring at it when the gates opened your attention was drawn to them again “Wow…” you said as you just stared in amazement at what you were seeing, in front of the huge castle was a beautiful fountain with a rose at the top water pouring from it “…it’s so beautiful” you finished and looked at Dante “I guess it is, I like the rose at the top” he said smiling.

                                                           

The car stopped in front of a few stairs and huge doors. You climbed out and closed the car door your gaze not leaving the castle. Dante came to your side of the car and held out his hand to you “Shall we?” he asked smiling at you, you looked at him and smiled back taking his hand into yours but as soon as you touched him you noticed his skin was very cold *Wow he’s really cold, I mean my hands are always cold too, but he’s even colder. Why didn’t I notice this yesterday when he also held my hand?* you thought. Dante waved his hand in front of your face “Lilly” he said, you snapped out of your thoughts and looked at him, rubbing the back of your neck and giving a silly smile “Sorry was in the clouds” you said stupidly. He laughed “Come on” he said pulling you forward, as you walked up the steps the castle doors started to open up and a long, thin kinda old man stood in the doorway.

He bowed and said “Hello young master” “Hey Walter, I see you’ve already forgotten what I’ve told you” Dante said cocking an eyebrow at Walter. Walter stood up straight again and said “I’m sorry young master I don’t seem to recall what you are talking about” “I told you not to call me young master, remember?” Dante said with an annoyed expression “Please forgive me young master Dante, but I cannot possible call you anything else.” Dante sighed “Fine” he said rolling his eyes.

“Wow you get treated like royalty here” you said looking at Dante. “Yea I guess I do, but it’s actually pretty darn annoying and I can’t really do anything about it” he said letting out another sigh. “Hey this kinda thing is something fun, not a burden… I’d love to be treated like royalty everyday it would be a nice change” you said smiling and putting your arms behind your head. Dante looked at you and then looked down “It might be fun for a while, but when you’ve grown up with it… you actually get tired of it, because of the royalty you also have to act like royalty all the time thus meaning I never have much fun” he said giving a fake smile. You looked at him your expression saddening a little “Well at least now that I am 19 I get to have some more freedom” he said giving a little laugh, you looked at him first caught of guard and then you smirked “Well then in that case you can join me, I love being a little trouble maker and I always have a lot of fun doing so” you said smiling and sticking out your tongue playfully and closing your eyes slightly. He looked at you a little surprised and then gave a genuine smile and both of you started laughing.

“Come on, I’m definitely not standing here all day long” Dante said and grabbed your hand pulling you forward into his castle. You were still amazed by the outside of the castle, but when you got inside your jaw practically fell off. The inside of the castle was decorated in a Victorian style; the wallpaper was a crimson red with black thorn patters on it. To the left was a huge doorway and the same to the right and right in front of you a huge staircase was situated on the left side against the wall. The floor was tiled with maroon coloured tiles and the ceiling was a pearl white, the stairs was a burned yellow wood colour with golden railings. Dante continued to hold your hand and pulled you forward towards the stairs as you were ascending up the stairs you could slowly start to see the second floor come into view. Once you were standing on the second floor your jaw fell to the ground once again. In front of you was a long hallway, the walls were a dark brown and the floor was a black carpet, the ceiling was a maroon red this time. On the walls hang a lot of portraits, but of who you didn’t know. Dante started walking down the hallway, every 8 or 9 steps you would pass beautiful wooden doors, you passed at least 4 doors on each side before you both stopped in front of a black wooden door with a red rose on it that was at the end of the hallway.

“This place is so beautiful; my eyes are practically popping out of their sockets” you said still looking around you “I’m glad you like it” Dante said smiling at you then opening the door in front of him. “This is my room” Dante said going into the room *I wonder what we’re doing in here… I thought I was going to see the books he was talking about and books are usually kept in a room full of old things and so on* you thought to yourself, “I keep those books I talked about in my room to keep them safe” Dante said, this surprised you because he completely answered your question without you asking him. The room was very big, against the wall in front of you in the middle stood a huge queen size bed, the sheets were a black velvet with crimson rose petals on it as well as the pillows, the beds’ headboard was gold. On either sides of the bed were bedside cupboards each having a little golden and silver lamp on them. On the left side of the bed against the left wall there was a huge closet of dark brown-red colour with golden knobs. On the right side of the bed there was a big balcony with double glass doors and golden knobs. The curtains hanging in front of the doors were black with silver thorn patters on them. To the right of the glass doors was a deep red door. The carpet was black and the ceiling a silver and red mixture. In front of the bed against the wall stood a beautiful dark brown dressing table with a huge 1 piece mirror in the middle, the only thing standing on it was a small glass vase with a black rose in it.

“Oh my gosh! This room is absolutely amazing!” you yelled while looking all around you “Oh thank you” Dante said smiling. As you were looking everywhere you saw the dresser and then the rose in the vase on the dresser. Your expression went shocked and you walked over to the dresser then picking up the black rose carefully, you looked carefully at the rose and gasped “What’s wrong Lilly?” Dante asked walking over to you. You turned to face him still holding the rose in your hand “This is an actual black rose… well actually it’s a very dark purple rose that looks black, but they are very rare!” you said looking at him with awe then back at the rose. “Oh yes that’s true, I love these roses they are so beautiful and smell amazing too” Dante said leaning forward and smelling the rose, you looked at him then smelled the rose as well. “Wow… that smells… I don’t even know how to describe it… it’s unbelievable” you said with a surprised face. Dante smirked at you and you tilted your head to the side “What?” you asked confused, he looked at you then said “Oh nothing… how bout we find those books I was talking about” you looked a little puzzled but shrugged it off and smiled “Okay let’s do that” you said and placed the rose carefully back into the vase.
