Forbidden

Chapter 2

"I'm sharing a cave with a vampire. I'm sharing a cave with a vampire. Ha! I must be dreaming!" Bella said to herself, pacing back and forth in front of the wall of rocks. "I'll wake up in me own bed and realise that this was all a bad dream and that the Skelligans are all very loyal to me."

She closed her eyes tightly.

"Right... Now." Bella opened her eyes and looked around but she was still in the cave. "Fuck!"

The sorceress sighed and sat down on the ground heavily. She felt tired and upset from the events of today. She yawned, stretched her arms above her head. Then she curled up and went to sleep.

The next day her hunger woke her up really early. The Skelligans did interrupt her lunch so it was a good reason for her to be hungry. Luckily she could magic up some food. So that's what she did. A flick of her wrist, a small purple glow and a plate of food appears in front of her. Bella was about to eat when she thought of the vampire. Perhaps he was hungry? Do vampires eat? He looked hungry... With a sigh she teleported a bowl of raw diced meat into her hands, stood and walked through the corridor.

Once she got to the huge cave room where Dettlaff had carved his room into the wall she tiptoed forward cautiously. Dettlaff was hanging upside down, probably asleep. Bella wasn't sure. She couldn't really be sure. She placed the bowl at the entrance and ran off.

Dettlaff, who was just hanging upside down for no reason, caught the scent of food and looked at the bowl. He caught the strange girl running away and hopped down from his perch. The vampire grabbed the bowl and looked at Bella who was hiding behind the shadows. He wasn't sure if he should thank her so he just nodded and turned around to heat up the meat.
