Vampire Princess Wants Her Comeback
Episode 3
It's numb, everything feels so light, like I am floating in a cloud
Lilith Cruorem
*opens eyes*
Lilith Cruorem
Where..is this?..
My surroundings are nothing but water and the distant sun setting down in the horizon
Suddenly I feel something on my shoulder
Lilith Cruorem
*flinches and looks back*
Aurthur Cruorem
*hugs her*
Lilith Cruorem
Dad? H-hey, what happened? We were at the party hall and then-
Aurthur Cruorem
My dear daughter..it feels like yesterday..when you were born
Aurthur Cruorem
Raine and I were so happy when you came into our lives
Lilith Cruorem
(Raine.. that's my mum's name)
His embrace feels so warm and calm
All the numbness and pain gradually subsided, like nothing was there to begin with
It makes me forget all the things that suddenly happened
But something doesn't feel right
Lilith Cruorem
*breaks the hug*
I grab his shoulder and look up at him with demanding eyes
Lilith Cruorem
Dad, what happened back there?
He looks at me and silence is all that I find for few minutes
But when I open my mouth to talk, he takes me back for a hug and looks at me
His eyes emitting love and so much care that I'm afraid that if I look for any longer I'll melt and would like to be like this here forever
Aurthur Cruorem
I know you'll be fine. You're brave like your mother, after all. *slowly smile*
Suddenly the pain comes back, like my body is being torn apart and put back together again
But not a single sound comes out of my lips
Aurthur Cruorem
I hope you will be a good queen, my princess
*kiss her forehead*
My eyes go blurry as his figure slowly fades away from my vision, I scream for him
But when I look around this time, the view is different
Some people in a room, while I feel soft around me to find I'm in the bed and everyone is staring at me with wide eyes
Augustus Morvhaine
Are you alright, Lady Lilith?
A ray of light falls on my eyes as the blurr from my vision slowly fades away and I recognise the person sitting near me
Yes, It's him. I'm sure of it. But he looks different, like...old..very old
He looked just like a 20 years old crown prince the other night and now he looks like..a 40 year old uncle? An uncle for real?
Lilith Cruorem
Is that you, Uncle Gus?
He doesn't respond but it looks like he is hesitating to move forward
My face feels wet, mostly my eyes
My hand moves on its own and what I find are tears running down my cheeks
Lilith Cruorem
I.. I'm crying?
I try to recall my memories but all I can I can recall last is the night of my 18tu birthday
Lilith Cruorem
(But what exactly happened there?)
A girl comes near the bed and hugs Uncle Gus from behind in joy
Augustus Morvhaine
Beatrice..
*teary eyes*
Beatrice Morvhaine
Is this her?! She's finally awake, father?!
*joyful and excited*
Lilith Cruorem
(Did I just hear her call him "father"?)
Augustus Morvhaine
Yes, she's awake.. She's awake!
*overjoyed*
Lilith Cruorem
Wait wait wait!
The pain strikes my body like a thunder bolt
Beatrice Morvhaine
Are you okay, Lady Lilith?😥
Lilith Cruorem
I.. I'm fine..
Lilith Cruorem
But tell me, what happened yesterday?
Lilith Cruorem
Where are dad and the others? Ava, Ethan..and how am I here?
Beatrice Morvhaine
Father, I think we should let her know
*presses his shoulder*
They exchange glances and uncle direct his attention to me
Augustus Morvhaine
Lilith, I don't think if you can take these words on right after waking up but..
Augustus Morvhaine
Listen carefully
Lilith Cruorem
(I just want to know about what happened yesterday, why the hell he is making a fuss about it so much?!)
Lilith Cruorem
(Wait, did Ava do that too? Like the fake scare two years ago in the annual party?)
Lilith Cruorem
(If all of that ruckus turns out to be another prank of Ava's then I might as well chop her dead and turn her into a vampire for her survival, hehe)
Augustus Morvhaine
Lady Lilith?
Lilith Cruorem
Uh yes, right.. please say, I'm listening
Augustus Morvhaine
Ava, Ethan and...your dad..every vampire who was present there that night..is dead
Lilith Cruorem
Is that a joke, uncle? At least make it believable for a jo-
Augustus Morvhaine
I'm telling the truth
Augustus Morvhaine
19 years ago, that night, the whole Cruorem Clan and other vampires were anhilated
Augustus Morvhaine
The yesterday you are talking about was 19 years ago
Beatrice Morvhaine
Yes Lady Lilith, You were asleep for 18 years, in the secret chamber of your family mansion
Beatrice Morvhaine
Last year, the imperial soldiers were finally able to break into the secret chamber and take you out of the-
Lilith Cruorem
Stop right there!
Beatrice Morvhaine
*pause*
Lilith Cruorem
This is not..time for a sick joke, seriously uncle
Lilith Cruorem
I..had been sleeping for 19 years? What bullshit!!😡
Augustus Morvhaine
...You don't believe me huh?
*stand up*
Augustus Morvhaine
Come with me then
*grabs my hand*
Lilith Cruorem
Huh? To where?
Augustus Morvhaine
To your family mansion, sorry, the place which has turned into a ruin now
Augustus Morvhaine
Beatrice, go tell Helena that I'll be heading out
Beatrice Morvhaine
But father, mother will not-
Augustus Morvhaine
I am not asking her! I am telling her, tell that to her okay?
Beatrice Morvhaine
O-okay, I mean, yes father!😥
It feels unbelievable that the whole vampire clan that my father turned so huge little by little over 170 years was suddenly taken out like that
And so, I obey him and from the royal palace I ride to the family mansion
Lilith Cruorem
(I must admit the surroundings look a bit.. different..but can it really..)
As we come out of the carriage what I see was what my heart continuously told me not to believe, continuously telling me that I'm still dreaming
Lilith Cruorem
(This..is a nightmare right?)
What I see infront of me is a broken, torn mansion, filled with wilderness
Lilith Cruorem
(Yes..this is definitely a nightmare, I will wake up and then.. everything will be normal again..right?)
Uncle is definitely saying something but it isn't reaching my ears
Unknowingly, my legs start moving, and before I know it, I'm walking inside the mansion
The whole mansion is filled with ashes and old bloodstains
Lilith Cruorem
(This smell, it's definitely blood)
Walking down the secret staircase, I finally reach the secret chamber
Near the door, lying on the ground is a skeleton, an arrow piercing its chest
Lilith Cruorem
*kneel down*
I take a closer look at the skeleton
Lilith Cruorem
(It's female..and the..clothes..)
Lilith Cruorem
It..it can't be..
*teary voice*
Augustus Morvhaine
Yes, Lady Lilith
Lilith Cruorem
*looks back*
Augustus Morvhaine
That's Ava
