Wow. What a night. This morning, stormy weather. On a Saturday.

The three of us literally partied for the whole night until the morning. Me and Romero are back at home, knocked out asleep. Well, I woke up an hour later, to continue my work on The Count. I sit in the living room, writing in my notes.

"The Count. Tall, Dark, and Gruesome. The Prince of Darkness. Wandering through the night. Looking for fresh prey. Still alive and well. Still searching for his bride-to-be. Who? The one anxious woman who falls through his bite. Like his servants who wander around his castle. Like lost souls. A full literal demon stuck inside the human body. What kind of madness drove them here?"

I then write about my interview with Dracula.

"I talk face-to-face with him. He seemed rather calm. Though evil and cold on the inside. The Count's been living in his castle for more than a hundred years. And more, but not counting. During my interview, I spectate the castle. It was old. The concrete brick walls were cracking. The scent of old cement filled around the castle. Some old tables and candles were filled with cobwebs. This seems like an unstable living condition. For The Count, it's normal to him. Though I find it not very comfortable."

Lastly, I mention about his connection with me.

"I notice something strange about The Count. I believe he's been watching me. Ever since our meet the night before, he quickly became attached to me. Was it because he thought I was another helpless, easy victim? His prey? What is it?"

I stop writing and close my small notebook. I yawn. 'I'm kind of tired. I should rest until tonight...'

🦇| Timeskip: Evening, 10:45 PM |🦇

The next evening, I was heading back to the castle. I had to bring a cloak with a hood because it was raining again. I was riding in a horse carriage on my way there. Romero was back at home. I told him that my boss needed me for a special assignment and I had to work late, that I was going to be gone for several hours. He didn't mind, though he told me to stay safe.

God, I hope...

I've made it to the passage way towards the castle. The carriage stops. I grab my briefcase and got off. I walk the rest of the way there. It was dark. Well, not really. The cloudy skies were light enough. Making it slightly easier to see clearly. Luckily, I've made it to the castle. I grab the doorknob and knock. I wait.

Seconds later, the door opens. However, no one was there to greet me. 'What?' I slowly walk in. I look around. "Are they here? Or is he here?" I whisper. The door closed behind me, making me sharply turn around. The Count was there, holding a candle. I sigh. "Oh. Count Dracula. There you are. My apologies, I didn't know you were behind the door."

He slowly comes over to me.

"You've came later than I've expected."

"Well, true to my word, I've made it." I said. "Wasn't that what you wanted?"

"Yes."

"So... what's on your mind? Since I'm here?" I ask.

"You..."

I lightly chuckle. "I figured. Well, let's... I mean... do whatever you want. As you please." Dracula looks at me raising a brow.

"...Does this involve me knowing more about you?"

"Yeah, sure. If you're interested."

"...Is your fiancé here with you?"
