"Mistress please." Pleaded Mira, a cup of crimson in her hand.

" Quiet." Snapped Azaria as she paced in the parlour, skin pale and bruises under her eyes.

" You haven't fed in days, at this rate you'll go berserk and attack them!" Shouted Mira.

" Trust me, they'll look forward to it, after all it would give them an excuse to kill me." She sneered.

" Are you that eager for death?"

Mira's sad voice made her pause.

" Leave me Mira." She sighed.

" But-"

" Now."

"Yes Mistress."

Azaria sighed before leaning heavily onto the mantle. She swallowed tightly, a dry hollowness within her throat.

" Damn it. " she swore and massaged her throbbing head with shaking hands.

" Please follow me." The girl intoned quietly and gracfully started down a dully lit corridor.

Sharing a look with his brother, they followed the mysterious blonde.
