The New Guest: Charlie Magne X Dracula Reader (Rewriting In Progress)

First Session

(YN)'s P.O.V

I awoke from one of the best nights of sleep I've gotten in centuries. Alastor really outdid himself when he made my suite. After getting dressed in my usual attire, I left my room to find the restaurant area Alastor also added. Charlie wanted to begin my therapy sessions after breakfast. " Good morning (YN)! " Niffty shouted as I sat down at one of the tables. She was too short for me to see her from behind the kitchen.

" What can I get you? " Niffty asked after speeding to my table. " I glanced at the breakfast menu. " I'll have the chicken fried steak and egg combo. " I said. Niffty nodded and dashed back to the kitchen. It only took her a minute for her to bring me my food. " Thank you. " I said, clearly astonished by her speed. " You're welcome Count! " Niffty squeaked as he sped back to the kitchen. It's been so long since I've eaten food. The thought never occurred to try when I was still undead. The steak and eggs tasted great, but like any food, it won't ever satiate me the way blood does for me or any vampire in that matter. 

Blood is what we develop the most taste for. Isn't that true with whatever you eat and drink the most? I placed my empty plate at the counter then left to find Charlie. I found her talking with Vaggie at the front desk. " Good morning Charlie, Vaggie. " I greeted the two. " Good morning (YN)! " She replied with a wide smile. She nudged Vaggie to say something. " Morning. " She mumbled. " I'm ready to begin when you are. " I told her.

Charlie squealed in excitement as she rushed to her room to grab some supplies. Vaggie eyed me in complete suspicion. Her antics were starting to bore me. " Why would you of all people seek rehabilitation? " She asked suspiciously. " I don't know, honestly. " I replied truthfully.  " Something has drawn me here and I intend on finding out what. " Vaggie looked at me weirdly then nodded in acknowledgment. " You need not worry Vaggie. I have no ill intentions. " Vaggie eased up. She was about to say something before Charlie came back. " You ready, (YN)? " She asked excitedly. 

I nodded and followed her up the stairs to the floor which housed all the therapy rooms. There were actually at least two floors full of those rooms, another credit to Alastor's work. Each of the rooms had a comfortable armchair where Charlie A.K.A the only therapist here would sit while there was an armchair or couch for the patient. " First of all, (YN). " Charlie said nervously. I was about to sit on the couch I turned to face her. The Princess of Hell's face was lowered and blushed. She was excited before this, weird.

" You have no idea how special this is for me. You know you're the first person to really commit to this. Even Angel refused to make this step. " I smiled warmly. " Well I'm sure if you can manage with me, you can manage with anyone. " Charlie relaxed and sat down into the armchair. I sat down in the opposite armchair. 

(Third Person)

" Where would you like to begin? " (YN) asked her while she took out a pencil and notepad. " Let's begin on your life before becoming a vampire. " Charlie started. " Well, I was born in 1429. When I was a teenager, My father gave me as tribute to the Ottomans. There I was molded into the warrior I was known for. " He explained. Charlie stopped writing. " Is that where you learned to impale people? " She asked. The vampire was surprised by how normal she sounded. " No. No. " (YN) answered.

" That was my own calling card later. After my tribute was paid in military service, I returned to Romania and joined the Order of The Dragon. Fast forward years and years of defending my homeland and impaling my enemies to 1462. Constantinople falls and gives the Muslims enough courage to invade again. I led the defense and successfully wiped them out in the process. Then, Charlie, it happened. " (YN) paused, struggling to continue talking. " I'm sorry this part is just hard to get out. " Charlie smiled understandingly. 

" Just take it slowly. " She soothed. " Alright. " He said after taking a deep breath. " The retreating Ottomans sent false news via arrow to the castle, claiming my death. S-s-she flung herself from the balcony. " Memories of that day hit him like a truck. " When they brought her body to me. The priests apologized, telling me that she was condemned and it was God's law. Why would they say that to a man in grief? " Charlie shook her head sadly. " I don't know (YN). I'm sorry. " The vampire smiled weakly at her attempt to ease him.

He appreciated the thought. " So I killed them as an unseen force watched on. He presented himself to me. It was your father. " (YN) got off the armchair and laid on the couch. Charlie held in a gasp. " My father turned you? " She asked. " No. " The vampire replied. " He only offered it as a gift, to take revenge on God. I accepted it. " (YN) stared off into the ceiling. He didn't notice Charlie's sorrowful gaze upon him. All she wanted to do at the moment was to hug him and repeatably apologize for what her father did. To take advantage of a man overcome with grief. Charlie held back her tears. This was not her time to be sad. This was her time to help (YN). 

" Tell me about your experiments. " She said. (YN) turned to his head to see Charlie. He was surprised that she wanted to know about that so fast. " For just about all my centuries. I turned many people of different types and personalities. All of them experiments on how different people acted and felt as a vampire and to create a vampiric master race line. Many of them I groomed and many I sent off into the world after just meeting and turning them. Some gave consent while others didn't. " (YN) explained.

" Like all things, I got bored of it. People got too repetitive as the centuries passed. By the 1880s, I decided to finally begin my plan of world domination. London was a good place to start because it was pretty much the heart of Europe. I bought a bunch of properties around the city to make into hideouts for me and my future kind. My solicitor Jonathan Harker finalized the deal so I left the castle and fed him to my three brides. 

All was well in London until I met Mina. I truly thought that she was the one. The bride to end all brides. The final experiment. My attachment to her became a weakness you see. Abraham Van Hellsing and his new cabal of hunters including Mina's husband Jonathan, were able to track me because of our telepathic connection. With my hideouts in England destroyed and my side experiment, Lucy Westenra hunted and killed. I had to retreat to my castle. After a battle with the hunters there, I faked my death and went under the radar until they all died of natural causes and whatnot. "

(YN) paused for Charlie to ask a question. " Why do you call your female experiments brides? " She asked. " To simulate connection from them to me I guess. " The vampire replied vaguely. Charlie took note of that. There had to something more to it. She would think about it while they continued talking. 

(YN) then explained his life after and the day he finally died. The Princess of Hell even shared some info on her life as well. " Thank you, (YN). " Charlie said. " I think that's enough for today. " (YN) nodded then got off the couch and out the door with Charlie. " It feels great to finally talk to someone who understands me. " He told her. The vampire's words burning bright in her heart, leaving her speechless. (YN) didn't understand why, then awkwardly said bye and began walking.

She tried to reach her hand out but he was too far away. Charlie wanted him to turn around, to return so she could embrace him and remind the Prince of Darkness that she was there for him. Any words dying in her throat. Charlie slumped against the wall, clutching her rapidly beating heart. It was in that moment when she realized about the brides. He was trying to fill the hole in his heart, and he didn't even know it.
