Chapter 6: Her Awakening

Lazarus leans over Drusilla's coffin holding a vial of blood, he opens her mouth and forces the blood down her throat, he puts his arm around her neck and leans her up for the blood to go down into her. He lays her back down and closes her coffin. The next twenty-four hours she will awaken and transform into a vampire. Lazarus then lays in his coffin and sleeps.

For the next twenty hours Drusilla, Lazarus, and Nikolas sleep. As darkness appears, Lazarus wakes. Lazarus goes to his bedroom to check on the woman and she is still passed out with her wrists tied to the bed post. Lazarus has her tied up because she will be Drusilla's first victim.

It is now dark, and the moon is full. The moon sits above the castle and gleams. Lazarus stands at Drusilla's coffin and opens it, he leans over and gives her a kiss on her mouth, she opens her wrinkly eyes slowly, she feels very weak and does not move any part of her body yet. Her eyes are fully open, she looks to Lazarus, he bends over the coffin and kisses her again, she kisses him back. He pulls away from her and she starts to lean up slowly, he picks her up out of the coffin and stands her in front of him, she's only wearing a long white gown. Their eyes connect, Lazarus's eyes are bloodshot red, her eyes are still white, but her pupils are yellowish. They passionately kiss. Drusilla's body is weak, so Lazarus hold her close to him, Lazarus tells her that he has something waiting for her in the bedroom. Drusilla can't talk yet, she can barely walk, so Lazarus caries her to his bedroom.

(Drusilla has no memory of her past life. She does not know that she had a family and that she was taken away from them.)

He opens the bedroom door and points to the woman lying on the bed for Drusilla.

"Go to her and suck the blood out of her. Feast on her, my love." Lazarus said to Drusilla.

Drusilla slowly walks to the woman, she stands there for a few minutes, her eyes become red, her fangs start to come out, she raises her arms up and tilts her head back. Drusilla bites the woman's neck, her blood drips from her neck down to her breasts, Drusilla sucks it all out of her, she needed the blood for her to survive as a vampire. The woman dies, she can't live since Drusilla took all her blood from her. Lazarus gets rid of the body, he buries her in the back of the castle, in the forest-like area.

While Lazarus buries the woman, Drusilla stands in the bedroom, her body starts to transition back into a human's body. Her body starts to shake, her old wrinkly skin on her body turns to a young Drusilla, the wrinkles on her face disappear, her skin looks as beautiful as ever. Her hair is back to her brown, wavy, long hair. Her body stops shaking, she becomes stronger than ever, she can pass through any room with speed, she can also go through doors and walls.


As Drusilla transitioned into the full vampire, she becomes very hungry, she speeds down the steps to the kitchen, opens the refrigerator door and looks for food. She grabs uncooked bloody meat and shoves it in her mouth, then she grabs uncooked bloody steak, she shoves it in her mouth. The blood from both meats drips out of her mouth. Lazarus suddenly appears, he pulls her away from the refrigerator, turns her around and licks the bloody juice from the meats from her mouth and neck. He then kisses her, their tongues are locked, then he pulls away.

"Drusilla, you're so beautiful, make love to me right now!" Lazarus said.

They start making out passionately, they rip each other's clothes off and start making love on the kitchen floor. They make love for an hour straight. When they finish, they put their clothes back on and Drusilla is hungrier than ever, she needs more blood. She goes out into the night and searches for her next victim.


It's around 1:30 a.m. she walks through the forest that is on the opposite side of the town. She nears the endo of the forest, she looks to her left side and notices a small cabin, she silently walks to the cabin and sees a light on. She disappears and flies through the wall to find a guy sitting in a rocking chair sleeping. She suddenly bites his neck and sucks the blood out of him, he opened his eyes quickly, as she sucks all his blood out, he dies. She leaves him lay there and leaves. When she gets back to the castle, Lazarus is standing there waiting for her.

"Did you get what you went out looking for?" Lazarus asks.

"I must keep feeding, I'm so hungry. That man is dead, I sucked all his blood from him." Drusilla replied.

"Where did you put the man's body?" Lazarus said.

"I left him there." Drusilla replied.

"What!!!" Lazarus yelled.

"No one will ever know that he is there, he's in a small cabin in the forest." Drusilla said.

"I'm going to go get him and bring him back here, I'll burry him in the back. You just can't leave a person where you bite them." Lazarus said.

Drusilla stands there without a care in the world. Lazarus must get him before sunlight. Lazarus leaves and Drusilla stays. Lazarus runs through the forest pushing the branches and leaves away from his face. As he gets further into the forest, he sees the cabin and flies through the window. He picks up the man and flies back to the castle. He starts to dig a hole to burry the man, it takes him a long time since the man is a big man. Drusilla goes to the back of the castle and watches as Lazarus digs the hole. It's becoming sunlight out and Drusilla still stands there watching Lazarus, the sun suddenly pops out, it does not phase Lazarus since he's the head vampire, but for Drusilla, it blinds her. The sun starts to burn her face, she puts her hands on her face and screams, she had no idea what is happening, so Lazarus tells her to get inside quickly.


Drusilla speed into the castle, she could not take the sunlight. Lazarus finishes burying the man and goes inside.

Drusilla asks Lazarus. "What just happened? I felt like I was on fire."

"You can not be in the sunlight; it will destroy you." Lazarus said.

Lazarus told her to get in her coffin and sleep through the daylight hours. Drusilla runs to her coffin and sleeps.

A few hours later, Lazarus heads into town. He stops at the bar, walks in, and sees Talon sitting at the bar with his head down. Lazarus sits next to him, shrugs his shoulder. Talon looks up and over to Lazarus.

"Where have you been? I haven't seen you in weeks." Talon said.

"I've been on vacation." Lazarus replied.

Lazarus cannot let Talon know that he took Drusilla and turned her into a vampire. He does not look suspicious to Talon. Talon starts to explain what happened to his wife and Lazarus tells him that he will help him look for her, he does not make himself look suspicious, he must not let Talon find out that he has her at his castle. Talon tells him that they have been looking everywhere for her and they can't find her. Lazarus tells him that he knows every inch of this town and he will make it a point to find her.

Lazarus takes a sip of his drink and gives the bartender a wink. The bartender distracts Talon from his conversation with Lazarus, she hands Talon a drink and caresses his hand, she looks him in his eyes with passion. She winks at him.

"My name is Clara, it's very nice to meet you!" Clara says.

"My name is Talon and likewise." Talon replied.

Clara gives Talon a sexy smile, Talon sits there and looks her up and down. He feels as though he wants to make a move on her.
