Chapter 03: Meeting Another
The hardest was the first few months after I had disposed of my Maker, mostly because I knew nothing of our vampire culture.
I started out on my own making it to another city and becoming a whore there. I would walk the street early on in the night enjoying my freedom from serving others, ironically dressed as I was, I did it for me. Depending on my mood I would kill on the street going down a back alley and coming out alone; or I would bring them back to my apartments and fuck them to my orgasm, biting down on their neck at my peak. I had meager apartments compared to the rooms I had at home, and no maids but I liked that independence. I no longer had to worry what anyone thought of me or the responsibility of taking care of them.
I moved often to different cities for necessity of fresh meals and to explore what I had been shut off from. But as I moved I glimpsed those that were like me, they had a different feeling than the humans around us. The first few I saw I stayed away from hoping that I wasn't intruding on their hunting grounds, but as time went on I found myself wanting to know more about them and our kind. I had just thrown a murderer in the river after feeding upon him and felt him behind me. Turning I poised myself for a fight but heard him laughing.
"I have no fight with you miss," he said with a chuckle, "just wanting to converse with another one of us."
I let myself relax, but looked at him with my ability and found he was curious and friendly. "I must admit you startled me."
At that he raised his eyebrow but said, "If you would like my residence is but a block from here, then we can talk in comfort, or we could take a walk if you rather."
I thought about it, "We can go to your home." I followed him into a modest house with a lush garden filled with moonflowers, bright and open at night for him to enjoy. He brought me to his library and we sat in cozy chairs before a fire.
"I would offer you drinks but I do believe that you did just had some."
I giggled, "I do believe you are correct, I hope I did not interfere with your hunting."
"No I tend not to hunt so closely to my home, but do not worry about your meal, as I have a feeling that the river will take him far from here. I must admit that I rarely see vampires as young as yourself out alone nor doing as well as you seem to be doing."
If I still had the ability to blush I know I would be, "Thank you, I was a fast learner and found I wanted my freedom than to learn more from him."
"Ahhh that would make sense because if I had been your maker I wouldn't have let you out of my sight, but as it is I have never been in his place. Could never see bringing another into this cursed life," he glances at me, "I am sorry, when you have lived as long as I have you will find that one becomes jagged."
