@LordTepes1986 “ by the gods Mathias , no need for the threats, I apologized ” as she's hugged, her hand gently pats the vampire's back in a gesture meant for comfort
One could say I am but it is what brought me to this point .
Sadly in my time , most cannot phantom the notion of science and call it witchcraft and so rumors start...
Such rumors sign a woman's death
“ i can imagine.
at times I wake up in cold sweats ”
she admits . while being the one to experience it all, she can't imagine being on the side of the ones to still go on after a loved one is executed .
“ but I imagine saying that doesn't help.... ”
@LordTepes1986 she gasps in surprise when she's suddenly lifted “ by the gods , Mathias put me down — I apologise I won't say anything like that again ”
she accepts the kiss but doesn't lift herself up or leans in to meet him like she'd normally do, she just keeps her ground and allows him to do all the work “ you're forgiven only because you seem to actually mean it "
〝 you're absolutely right , my sunshine. neither i nor anyone else has the right to yell at you. i'm sorry. 〞
/ he gave her a gentle kiss , she was too sweet for this bitter world.
〝 don't worry , i only drink the blood of bad people . . and you know very well that you can customize the rooms however you want. i just can't guarantee i'll be very welcoming . 〞
“ I can ” the woman reassured, leaning her cheek into one of his palms , her own smaller hands coming to rest on his “ but I'm also not just any woman in this castle of yours. I never appreciated being yelled at by anyone ”
“ It's not that I think you'd kill them. . . The place is just ... aesthetically different from what the simple folk is used to ” she tries to explain
“ also, don't joke about that ! ”
〝 you know very well that i wouldn't kill your patients . . unless I was starving. 〞
/ giggle.
〝 and if they accused you again and i was nearby , i would get drunk on the blood of my enemies. 〞
this was an unusual sight. not that Vlad was ever bowing or anything of sorts but he also never held this much authority in his picture (only the first time they met)
it made Lisa shift, shoulders tense and her composure to crack “ I must have been very annoying for you to ”+
/ for the first time in a long time , vlad stood tall in this conversation , displaying an authoritative pose.
〝 lisa , i would never yell at you on purpose , and you know that. there are many other ways to resolve conflicts , yelling has never been in my nature. 〞
