Book 4 Now, you must think me cowardice for abandoning my grandkids but do listen to my story and judge me fully after you have heard it. Perhaps my cowardly nature can be cleared up as to why I am the way I am. I will only say this one thing the sh...

Lillie looked around the whole of the interior, it was dark a chandler hung from the ceiling and vampires milled about staring at her as if sensing her stagnate blood and whispered quietly to each other. "My, isn't the welcoming committee very welcoming." She mused softly "Yes, it's not every day we get guests here so I'm afraid they aren't certain how to act since you clearly aren't a coven member." "Mmm yes, not very friendly little buggers. Well no matter not like I haven't dealt with the unfriendly crowd before." She spoke more so to herself than to anybody else in particular. "Now, do tell me as to what you are please?" "No can do hot stuff." "Really now playing that game with me? Honestly how childish are you how hard is it to simply tell one your species? Even rare ones would be willing to say." "Mmm yes well they are the stupid ones and why they are so rare." She mumbled out. "Keep me here under suspicion as long as you like, but it won't make much difference to me in the end." She replied with a shrug and sly grin.
"I doubt you will be singing the same tune after a few years here."
"Look I'm in no hurry I have nowhere to be anytime soon I have eons to last and compared to my own age, you haven't seen a thing myself to my moms your, but a baby fledgling really and to me younger siblings since that's close to what you are...mmm no that's not right." She said tapping her finger to her chin. "Mmmm...more like cousins." She said nodding. "Thrice removed cousins." She clarified
Romano just looked at her as if she had lost her mind. "Very well, if you won't tell me your species do tell me how old you are at least."
Lille gasped towards him. "My oh my, didn't your mother ever teach you to not ask a lady her age?" Romano rolled his eyes towards her. "Your no lady if you tackle and chase one of my coven members down the street like a lunatic."
"Mm...I suppose I see your point. Hmm, very well." She relented. "My age is approximately close to a millennium. Give or take a few years I'm rounding up close to that age though."
Romano looked at Lillie trying to see if maybe by some chance she was joking. He quickly saw, joking she was not. "I don't even know how to respond to that. If your as old as you claim you are then what's stopping you from leaving here and killing us all hmm?"
"Maybe the fact I don't want to intentionally kill anybody and I'm not in the mood to try fighting off some vumpiers. Especially vumpiers in a coven. That's far more work than I wish to put into the universe than I would get out."
Romano just looked at her for a moment before he burst out laughing at her statement.
"Alright, I can see your point." He replied between laughter motioning for her to sit down. "Now, do understand I can't let you leave here."
"No, your correct, I figured as much. It's fine I don't really have anywhere to be anytime soon. I suppose..." she said mumbling the last part out taking a moment to think. "Mmmm, no, I suppose I really don't..." she said trailing off. Nothing that is of immediate importance I guess."
"How is it you can only guess and have no certainty that nothing of importance doesn't have to be done? I would think this would be a rather simple and easy thing to say with certainty on if you have something you have to do, no?" Romano said looking her over with question of her possible sanity.
"Just don't as long as nobody's secret gets out it's not as if any important things will occurs immortality is nice like that wouldn't you say?"
"Yes, I suppose so however meetings and times should always be maintained and kept punctuality is key after all for success in life."
"Says you. I happen to have no agenda or anywhere I have to be at any time. I would like to be at certain places at certain times however it doesn't really affect me all that much if I'm not."
"Ridiculous. Once you decide you wish to tell me who you are have one of my coven members bring you back here. Till then you'll be shown to a room and kept under strict surveillance to ensure you can't can't escape. Daysune come show her to her room inform the others she is to be under strict surveillance." A tall light skinned African American male ended up coming in motioning for Lillie to follow him which she obliged with a smile. "My seems everyone here is rather on the uptake of what's going on. I really should feel honored to be in such a well run coven. The last one I was in was barbaric in a cave and feasting on a goat or something in a blood rage I believe it's called?"
"Yes, but that would be near impossible as the last blood-rage to occur was centenaries before even this coven was founded it would have occurred when vampires were first created which entails your either lying,are an old bat, or there are still uneducated vampires out there. I'll allow you to guess which one I believe more."
"No clue. Anyway Daysune here I'll allow to show me my quarters;Till dinner I presume."
Lillie took Daysunes arm without him saying anything as he gave her a questioning look then his coven leader the same look as he just rubbed his head motioning for her to be taken out as if she were being escorted as a dignified lady in high class society.
