Vampire Friday: Vampire Heart 355

Welcome to a new part of Vampire Heart unedited. Have you been bitten yet? Sign up to be part of our awesome Vampire Friday blog hop team! You know you want to!

Summary of the previous episodes: Viorel has been tortured by his supposed family who wanted to have him burn in the sun. Strangely enough the sun didn't burn him as expected but Viorel has no memory of who he is. Following the advises of his supposed father, he left Sighișoara and is now traveling to the West. After some skirmish in a previous city, he found refuge on a boat. Viorel is now in Vienna. The little problem is that the guy at the inn was a bit of an asshole and helped capture Viorel thinking he was a vampire, which he is but nobody needs to know. Now there is a huge man (which I call the colossi) taking care of Viorel and a priest. They brought a girl. Torture my holy water... Fail. Viorel managed to confuse everyone, now he would like to get out of here. But the girl seems pretty useless. They still managed to escape and he left the girl to the care of the boat lady before going back to have two words with his captors but his power of persuasion were failing him. The priest wanted to crack a deal but Viorel is not really up to help his enemies. He finally got some blood but he can't risk to stay in Vienna. He travel to Linz were he stays a bit to learn German.

Viorel wanted to go to Praha but redirect himself toward Augsburg instead where he wants to get a horse, except that the horses are a bit scared of his vampirism and maybe something else. Viorel is really not a horse expert. Then he comes into an altercation with couple of people, he wants some fear in his blood. The girl Viorel has found seemed to enjoy the game. Viorel prepares for the nightmares that come with a feast of blood, in a rush to leave, he cross the dukedom of Lorrain.
We introduced Sorina, three weeks after the beginning of Viorel's escape.
Viorel dreamed of Sorina and woke up not really remembering anything. Traveling to Paris, he arrives at "La cour des miracles". He is rescued by a stranger who turned out to be Nicolas Flamel, the alchemist he was looking for. Nicolas does some strange experiment without Viorel's agreement. Some people are looking for Nicolas's secrets. On the other side of Europe, Sorina awakes and Viorel's past in haunting him. Viorel discovered that he can change into a wolf but that's not the easiest thing to handle. After finding out that a younger version of Nicolas might not be acting with his best interest at heart, Viorel decides to leave for the north. He is now traveling with two people, Alexej who needed to get out of Praha and Irina who he accidentally rescued.

 

 Now, let's continue with Vampire Heart, right where we left off last time.

 

We stopped at the bakery, it didn’t smell as good as I was used to when living in France, the smell of warm bread seemed to have fainted long ago. The shop was almost empty of goods and it seems that it was as deserted as the inn we were staying at. People in this town had forgotten to live. It was all about the dragons and it seemed to me that there was nothing I could do about it. I didn’t have a plan to prevent the egg to fall in the priest’s hand and I didn’t know how long we could stay here safely. I bought a baklava for Irina and we went back. Alexei seemed annoyed, he was looking around as if he had been expecting to see the dragons anytime flying above our heads and spitting fire. But I knew that was unlikely. They had an egg to protect and one of them probably only flew away at night when the humans weren’t around, to get some food for the nest.

Irina was still in bed. I shouldn’t have expected otherwise but a part of me was still sure that she was going to run away. She opened an eye when I entered the room just to verify who was coming in, probably awoken by the noise of the door turning on its hinges. I sat on the bed and removed the scarf from around her neck. The smell of blood was still fresh.

“Go ahead,” she said.

I wanted to drink but I knew that if I was to drink now, I would kill her. Not because she was too weak or too blood deprived but because the dragons’ hunt and the walk in the crowd had tired me more than I expected.
