15 The Essence of a Vampire (1/2)

Draig woke with a start and realized he was still in one piece and Sylvie was still staring at him curiously, he thanked whatever being was looking out for him that he was alive after his slip up. Wasting no time he continued on his trek to the Faction that infiltrated his domain, that was his excuse but in all honesty he was after their blood.

Sylvie followed behind him just as she did the day before without a hint that she might leave, he could only shake his head at such actions.

”Oh what is a one of our kind doing playing among the mortals” came the smooth and elegant voice before a shadow appeared in Draig's path.

Draig stopped when he felt a tremble in his blood, he had never experienced this sensation before.

”Who are you” demanded Draig as his flexed his fingers, he didn't like this oppressive feeling.

He had felt something similar from Zarra but this was something on a completely different level, it was as if his blood was demanding him to bow in the presence of this person. Draig wanted to kill this thing in front of him, he would say man but he doubted the legitimacy of that statement.

”I am the Baron of Evernight District, Fraudrik. Now I believe I asked a question” stated Fraudrik with arrogance filling his tone

Draig hearing this tone felt his anger rising, he straightened his body and his trembling stopped.

”The question is why are you trespassing on my territory” stated Draig his claws gleaming in the sun

Fraudrik frowned and appeared in front of Draig clutching him by the throat, a cold look adorning his features.

”You dare speak to your betters like that” asked Fraudrik firming his grip

Draig looked at his fellow vampire with rebellious stare slashing the others arm with his claws but left only small wounds.

”That's cute” was the only response Draig received before he was crashed into the ground forming a crater.

”Let me tell you something you filth, I am not something you could dream of going against. So be an obedient little trash and answer my questions” stated Fraudrik baring his own claws

Draig stared into his eyes before smirking and turning to mist and landing a kick into the ribs of Fraudrik launching him out of the crater.

”Let me tell you something, you may be a Baron where your from but here, in this domain I am the Head Vampire. You would do well to remember that or you will end up as a meal to yours truly” said Draig readying himself for a fight.
