Although she was expecting the vampire to arrive, she did have to look up in case it was another foolish servant or a brave Saint in the ground wondering what she was up to. She sighed with a little relief as she saw Vail enter. She couldn’t hide a small smile, though she attempted to. She turned to the Chess board he referred to and as he asked if she chased her opponent away, she chuckled. “Yes. I beat them into submission with my pawn.” She joked sarcastically. She couldn’t help but notice he was dressed a little more dapper than usual. Or perhaps it was she hadn’t seen him for three days and his image was starting to get blurry in her mind’s eye so that upon renewing that image, it was much clearer and he was even better looking in real life.

She didn’t stand to greet him as she knew he’d just ask her to sit or lay down once again to begin his feed. He came to join her on the velvet seat. She looked around the lodge as he mentioned it was an intricate set up. “I don’t want to arouse suspicion if they see me in here already in the evenings spending my leisurely time, they wont question me going out here at midnight frequently. Do you not play Chess?” She leaned forward and poured herself another tea. It was still luke warm from the tea cosy keeping the pot hot. “The tea is actually for your benefit, Lord Hygrace. If I am well hydrated, then my blood should be all the better for it.” Just like when going to the doctors, if one were to be dehydrated, drawing blood from a vein would be very tricky. 

It hadn’t escaped her notice that his hazel eyes swept over her body hungrily. She assumed he was eager to draw that blood from her veins. Which were more prominent, pumped full of her life essence and all the more potent as it were nearer the surface of her skin. The only thing missing was a fireplace to keep her capillaries expanded. Perhaps on the next visit she would make a small log fire in the stone chimney of the lodge’s wall. It had everything one would need on a chilly night. But the tea kept her warmed up and her gloved arms. “In the very least you cannot say that I am not accommodating enough in this bargain of ours.” She mused as she grinned behind her tea cup. “Speaking of which…” She bent forwards to place her tea cup on the table, revealing her shoulder blades to him. “I suppose you wish to choose a new spot to bite, this is the loosest dress I own. Though…I could wear [i]less[/i]…if you preferred.” She shrugged at the notion, she wouldn’t feel that embarrassed about being completely in the nude for him to have better access to a spot he wanted. Though with her slender frame, there were only a few options of the fleshier areas. She was quite confident about her body. She had the smoothest, silkiest skin that the finest soaps and perfumes could lash, she had curves in all the right places and volumed thick bouncy hair that most women dreamed of. 

She sat back and gave him the nod that she was ready to receive further instruction. Did he want the light on or off? Did he want her to lay down again or stand? She didn’t know what his preferences were yet. But she was sure that over time, she would get to know his likes and dislikes. She was rather calm for one who was about to be preyed upon.
