Chapter 9: Back Home.  

still revising, you lucky mofo\'s---------------------------------------

\"Miss, would you like something to drink or eat?\"  

\"No thank you.\" I flashed the flight attendant a toothy grin and she walked away. Currently, I was on a plane to my master\'s castle in Romania. (I know, cliché and ironic, but its whatever now.) 

A boring amount of hours later....(somehow in my head it sounded cooler with a British accent.) 

\"Passengers, please fasten your seatbelts, we will be landing in approximately 6 minutes.\" I locked my seatbelt into place and the man next to me looked like he was going to have a panic attack...well he would parish in a plane crash...I would probably burn in a slow and painful death- that is if the plane caught fire.  

The plane landed and from the window I could see William standing there. William is Vlad\'s butler, his...vampire...butler. But none of the less, he is like Vlad\'s brother.  

\"Hello Miss Kustenova!\" A very excited William hugged me to his broad chest tightly.  

\"tell me, William, how is he?\" I asked seriously. The time for fun and games is coming to a slow close.  

\"He is...better, knowing that you are coming home. The past few years have been...absolutely dreadful. But, please do understand Miss, that we did everything we could to keep him healthy.\" 

\"right, well we should get there before he tears his hair out.\" He chuckled and we stepped into the car.  

\"So Miss, how were your years with....them\" He spat \'them\' with disgust. Good. 

\"Terrible. Absolutely terrible. They attempted at abusing me, but I healed myself at night. Those years I spent without blood were horrible. I was so malnourished that I stopped talking. Everything was a complete disaster. I regret everything I ever said to Vlad. I regret running away. But, I can\'t say I regret meeting him in the first place.\"  

\"Good God Miss! How did you do it!? We might not want to tell Vlad about your time there.\" I shivered at the thoughts of what Vlad would say and do. But along with the fearful shivers, I could help but feel like I forgot something... 

\"Miss, we need to take the carriage to his castle.\" Looking at me in the review mirror, I nodded and we stepped out of the car and into the black carriage. Everything was clad in black, including the horses and tinted windows.  

It was beautiful to me.  

\"So Miss, are you excited to see your Vampire King?\" I couldn\'t stop the bright smile that graced my features.  

\"Indeed William, even now the wait is excruciating.\" William snorted, then covered his mouth, realizing how improper he sounded. \"No need William, we are good friends, your manners are not entirely needed when I am in your presence.\" He smiled and nodded a small thank you.  

\"How do you think we feel Miss? The beloved Vampire Queen has been gone for a while, everything was completely hectic. Vlad did not want me to tell you this but, he went into a depression.\"  

\"Really?\" My brow furrowed at the additional information.  

\"Aye, when you see him for yourself, you will be able to tell. Though he doesn\'t know you are coming today, I thought I would make it a surprise.\" I couldn\'t help but laugh when I heard this. The image of shock on Vlad\'s face was...different, usually its love, lust, anger, or amusement.  

\"William, do you think things will...I don\'t know...be more interesting this year. I have a hunch that something is going to be bag or different.\"  

\"Miss, I think you are tired or stressed, things should return to normal.\" He put on a cheery smile, trying to reassure me.  

--A painful hour later-- 

We continue on through until we reach a break in the mountain, showing the castle in which my husband resides. I know its hard to get used to, a 16 year old girl married to what looks like a man in his late 30\'s. Too bad we are frozen at this age forever.  

\"Miss, look, we are here!\" William said happily and hopped out of the carriage and grabbed my belonging.  

\"William I can help you with those.\" I said almost laughing from seeing the elder man try to carry so many bags.  

\"Miss, it is no trouble at all. Go see him.\" I nodded and started up for the foyer in the castle. Do you know that feeling you get when you are about to see a crush or someone special to you? Well that\'s what I am feeling now, nervous butterflies are swarming in my stomach. A familiar ache set into place when I arrived at Vlad\'s bedroom. Slowly I raised my hand to knock, but before my hand could connect with the wood, I heard a cold and masculine voice, it sent chills down my spine.  

\"Go away.\" I walked into the room anyway. \"Who dares to-\" He was cut off when he turned around to see me standing there.  

\"Well fine, if you want me to go away.\" I turned around to leave the room, but two strong arms snaked their way around my waist and pulled me against a rock hard chest. \"Hello to you to.\" I whispered. When I felt his arms tighten, I knew I was home.

WOOTWOOTSTILLGOING.YEAH.
