The Duchess' First Blood Lust Category: Uncategorized
The
first night hunting on her own was a century into her new life with
Nikolaos
and for Adria is was a learning curve. She had dressed in dark
colors, pants over her usual skirts and her pale hair bound up, tight
with no visible curls. She knew what she looked like, some evil ice
queen, and she liked it. Usually Nikolaos
hunted,
he brought her back blood, but tonight would be different. While he
was busy tending to the manor, handing business no doubt left for
days while he looked after her, she slipped out the heavy wooden
doors that hide them from
the world in the daylight.
The
woods surrounding the manor were thick but it was an easy matter with
their driver to navigate horses through the woods, the carriage
hooked to the back making minimal noise. She
knew what she was looking for, women willing to make some money they
would never see. She could no doubt lure men back easier simply with
a look but her husband preferred the fairer sex for the taste and
that was her aim tonight, her first time playing the house wife and
having dinner ready when he returned home.
Her
boots made a delicate crunch in the frost covered dirt, the only
sound to betray her arrival. She worried for a moment that things
would not be as she remembered, there would be no alley where ladies
of the night lay in wait. But the oldest profession could hardly fail
her and as she ducked into a dank alley she heard sucking teeth,
someone disappointed that she was a woman, probably not looking for
company of their offering. Adria smiled walking up to a red head
about halfway down the alley, who looked a little more mature then
the others. “Its your lucky day,” she said to the woman with a
smile.
Because
she needed to seem genuine to get so many back she leaned in,
whispering in the woman ear, “Im in need of company tonight, a
surprise for my husband, and
id pay handsomely for all of you ladies to come back for a little get
together.” Adria
pulled back holding out a bag,
velvet wrapped around a heavy weight of coin. She watched the redhead
consider and motion over her girls. There was four in all and Adria
smiled her driver pulling up at the mouth of the alley. She
motioned for the girls to move ahead of her and climbed up after
them. She was on one side with the red head the three nervous girls
sitting across from them. The
ride back took no time at all and when the driver jumped down to open
the door the Duchess told him, “Take the three up,
show they the room, ladies undress and wait there, ill settle the
bill here.”
The
three women trooped out with a hand down by her driver, and Adria
didnt speak until their heavy front doors slammed shut behind them.
She produced another bag for the redhead and then used a slim
finger to tip her chin back. The whore worked under the assumption
that she was to receive
a kiss and closed her eyes. Adria pressed the barest pressure to her
pulse before her ripped into it. A gurgle of pain replaced what would
have been a scream, and she sucked hungrily, greedily, hearing
coins spill to the floor as the woman went slack against the seat.
Adria drank until there was no pulse and then let the woman slid to
the floor. She helped herself down and walked into her home, sporting
a bloody smile.
At
the door she was handed a neckerchief by a maid and she cleaned up
her lips before she continued on her way, up the grand staircase and
off to her bedroom. Three girls sat along the edge, in various forms
of undress, making her smile. The ropes she had placed on her dresser
before were still there and she walked over to grab them as someone
closed the double doors behind her. “All three of you back against
the headboard, arms behind your back.” Adria got two tied before
the third thought to asked where their friend was. “Shes helping
the Duke prepare,” she lied smoothly before adding, “Dont worry,
this will be a night to remember.” After the girls hands were bound
through the headboard Adria worked on their knees, to keep them more
docile while they waited for her husband to arrive.
She
shed her top layer in anticipation of what was to come...
