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.
Now, let's continue with Vampire Heart, right where we left of last week.
I
looked at him straight in the eyes.
I
shook my head from top to bottom but he didn’t seem to care much
about the gesture. I was getting tired of the little game.
“What
did you do to him?”
Strangely
Nicolas was talking to me like I was a human but was still unable to
recognise me. I yawned again. Yawning had an extremely nice feeling.
I had seen humans do it before but I never really understood the
need. Maybe because I was new at breathing. I couldn’t think of
anything I could to do make him understand. We had been looking at
each other in something that felt like forever. He had looked at my
clothes and recognized that they were mine but he still had his back
on the wall and looking at me like I was the devil. I should have
gone to the stable and slept with my horse because at least it knew
that who I was but now it was too late, if I were to get out of the
house now Nicolas or anyone seeing me would start to panic. But I
still decided to take a risk. I came close to my clothes again.
Nicolas tiptoed against the wall like a young cat in a fight as if I
was going to jump on him. I wondered if his older self would have
been more perspicuous. It took the clothes in my mouth, I could taste
to blood of the guy who had been stabbed earlier on them. It was a
nice feeling, I still liked blood even as a wolf. I carried the
clothes to the small stairs in the left corner, it was going up
turning and I felt like carrying the clothes that way wasn’t going
to be easy. I looked up and then looked at Nicolas then looked up
again. I had to go no matter what. I started to run hoping that my
legs weren’t going to end up stuck in my sleeves or somewhere. I
had four of them. I don’t know if you can imagine how it is to
suddenly have to control four legs and try to figure out which one
is supposed to go on the floor first and turn in stairs at the same
time. It was a rather foolish idea. I wasn’t even half way when my
trousers were caught on a step, just a button stuck on a nail but
that was enough. I felt the tissues break under my fangs and pulling
me back as I pulled on it to go up. One of my back leg, I can’t
even know which one for sure managed to get caught in my jacket and
here I was falling down the stairs. When I hit the bottom I emitted a
weird painful sound but it seemed to be more of a reflex than because
I was really in pain. I stood up as fast as I could as the clothes
were falling on the top of me. I shook myself to take them away, I
almost wanted to laugh at the misadventure but Nicolas was looking at
me and I knew I had to get going. I decided to forget about the
clothes and tried the stairs again. I started slowly but soon
discover that I was going to use my rapidity if I didn’t want to
fall back down again.
