Chapter 47

Vampire's Kiss

Beware the kiss of the living dead

It will leave you wanting

Hunger delays once he's fed

But restarts the hunting

Daylight breaks and brings the night

As deadly sleep takes over

And when the mood renews it's light

The corps-ed shell grows colder

A wooman walking down the street

An invitation to the dinner

She never hears the silent feet

That carry the deadly sinner

And as the fangs sink doen deep

The hunter takes his prey

He prays the Lord her soul to keep

Then slowly backs away

Beware the kiss of the living dead

It will leave you wanting

Hunger delays once she's fed

But soon restarts the hunting

"Are you guys ready?" Drake asked looking at each and everyone. "Our goal is to retrieve Katherine and Celeste safely. Will go in tandem. Make sure you look at each other's back. Be safe everyone and remember this, keep each other alive or else... I will kill you both." Drake said with a serious face but everyone knew that he's only worried about them.

Athan is with Amber. Dawn with Alaric. Thana is with Blade. Amdis and Kieran are together. Drake and Gregory have no choice but to be a tandem because Drake don't want to partner himself neither with Morgan nor Taylor. Everyone redied themselves and entered the falls.

"Celeste...Celeste..." Katherine tried to mind link the girl but to her dismay, her tries failed again. "What will I do? Think Katherine, think." She said to herself. For now Celeste is safe because she really didn't try to escape but she must do something rather than to stay inside the room just waiting for the next thing to happen. Suddenly, the door opened and a servant with a tray of food entered. When she looked at the television, another servant is giving food to Celeste.

"What is your name?" Katherine's sudden question made the servant stiffened. He was told not to talk or to look into her. "I'm Katherine, what's yours?" Katherine asked again but she got no response at all. The servant took a spoonful of rice and viand from the tray and fed it to Katherine. She was hesitant at first because Travis might put something to make her slave or worst, poison her. "Don't worry, it's clean. We're the one preparing the food of the hostages here." The servant said with an awkward smile on his face. Katherine opened her mouth and ate the food. The servant smiled and to Katherine, he's quite cute. She smiled remembering Drake. If he will know that she's admiring someone, he might put an end to his life because of jealousy. She sighed, hoping that the others are already looking for them. She's not worried about herself because once the silver chain will be remove out from her body, she can deal with all of them. All her worries are for Celeste. She's human and drinking blood from her will do two things on her. Either she will die due to blood lost or she will become one of them but, she will also die if her body cannot withstand the transformation.

"Don't worry about her. She's stubborn as you. Your only difference is you're powerful and she's only human but she's a strong willed girl. My partner told me that she even bit the one who bit her a while ago." Hearing what the servant told her made her giggled imagining how Celeste did it. "Lord Travis told me that never talk or look into you because you might hurt me but I can feel that your safe to deal with." The servant said making Katherine smiled.

After feeding her, the servant started to clean up the table. "Thank you." Katherine said and the servant smiled at her. "As long as you behave, you and her will be safe. Lord Travis went out to fetch his brother and it will take him two days before he returns." The servant said then, winked at her. When the servant was already outside, Katherine thought what the man have said. "Travis is out so..." Katherine smiled. "Thank you!" She shouted. The servant smiled hearing what Katherine said but became serious when the two guards standing at the side of the door looked at him.

Katherine is starting to feel sleepy but she must keep herself awake to see what's happening to Celeste. She smiled when she saw that the girl is already sleeping though her position will make her nape ache that next morning. When the door opened, she furrowed her forehead when the servant a while ago entered again with a tray of different kinds of biscuits on his hands.

"Are you making me fat here?" Katherine said with a smile on her face. "Not really. I couldn't sleep and my hunch told me that you couldn't sleep also so I made a midnight snack for both of us." The servant said. "Thank you. Travis might punish you for treating me like these." Katherine said opening her mouth to accept the biscuit on his hand. "I'm used to his beating but I'm not doing anything wrong. He was the one who said to feed you regularly." The servant said then gave another biscuit to her but when she tried to bite it, she cried of pain. "Sorry..." The servant said. When Katherine felt the shape of the biscuit, she raised her brow. "I guess you're full. Have a goodnight sleep, Milady." The servant said and went out.

Katherine dropped the thing on her mouth on her hand. When she moved her hand to catch the thing, she felt the pain but she smiled devilishly seeing that the biscuit he fed her was a key and she knew what to do next. She planned everything carefully. Hope that when everything gone wrong, Drake and the rest are already here to rescue them.
