(Outskirts Of New Atlantic City)
(Castle Eden- Palace's Training Grounds)
"A little lower please… mhmmm… there's the spot…" a sweet seductive voice echoed through the training field.
Mary bit her lips and tried not to let her eyes wander over the half naked body lying down on the bench.
She raised up her right hand and wiped some beads of sweat that were rolling down her forehead.
Her entire body was aching in pain, but she kept on massaging her mistress' lower back.
It was around three o' clock in the morning and today's sword fighting class had just finished.
Mary had been pleased with the progress that she had been making even though she had yet to win a fight against her vampire opponent.
Her body was getting stronger by the day, so she was able to wield her weapon for a longer period of time.
Even Camilla had applauded her progress and said that she was learning remarkably fast… for a human.
Now the other weapons on the other hand… let's just say that the progress there was going a bit more slowly.
There was something about holding a sword that felt almost instinctively familiar to Mary even though that should be impossible.
The original Mary had never learnt how to fight while Sui Li had been born in a modern world and had only seen swords on the television or the internet.
Maybe this was a skill that she had picked up in one of her mission worlds?
Mary furrowed her brows and continued to pinch and press the soft squishy flesh in front of her body.
Camilla opened her mouth and moaned in pleasure. Her voice sent tiny shivers down Mary's spine as the blush on her face intensified.
Finally, the beautiful vampire seemed to have enough and raised up her hand for her loyal servant to stop massaging.
"You did well today. I am glad that you are learning quickly because there isn't much time before assassins sent to kill me will appear," Camilla explained in a nonchalant tone.
"I suspect that one if not all of the princes will use their connections to see if my return is indeed true."
"Then they will either try to sway me to their side or eliminate me before I can join someone else's."
Despite talking about dangerous killers being sent to hunt her down, Camilla's tone was quite casual as if speaking of the weather.
"Will I be able to protect you against a vampire?" Mary asked in a bit of a skeptical tone.
"Hmm… maybe not yet… I mean you should at least be able to survive an encounter with my lesser brethren," Camilla rubbed her chin thoughtfully as she spoke.
The female vampire's crimson eyes darkened and then suddenly an enormous wave of pressure fell on Mary's body.
The young woman gritted her teeth and forced herself to remain standing even as the ground beneath her feet began to crack.
Then just as quickly as it had appeared… the pressure vanished.
Camilla hummed an unfamiliar tune and then began to walk towards the exit. Mary stepped forward to follow her but almost fell as her knees threatened to give out.
She muttered a curse under her breath as she gathered her strength and forced her body to move.
Her vampire mistress was beautiful but… Mary had not forgotten her true purpose.
She needed to escape after learning as many vampire hunting techniques as possible.
Camilla roamed through the corridors with Mary following closely behind.
The vampire seemed to be in a bit of a hurry and Mary did not dare to question her about the reason behind her haste.
Eventually after walking for around twenty minutes, Camilla stopped in front of a large wooden door and opened it.
She entered inside the room and Mary could hear the sounds of footsteps and rustling as her mistress searched for something.
Mary reached into her pocket and pulled out a cell phone. There wasn't any signal in this part of the castle, but it was connected to the internet.
Unfortunately, the internet used in the vampire-controlled region of the country only allowed certain websites.
The first thing Mary had done when she realised that there was internet in the castle was attempt to reach out to her sister via email or even social media but it was no use.
Even news about the human world was locked behind paywalls. One needed a verified account to access that information.
As for how to get a verified account… she really had no idea.
Honestly, she was surprised that the vampires were so tech savvy in the first place.
Still there were some useful things that Mary had learnt.
There was information about the various powerful clans that ruled different parts of the country.
One could also find out brief tidbits of information about really strong vampires who led different clans and families.
Mary had searched up Camilla's name and discovered that she had long been assumed to be dead.
There wasn't much information on her mistress, and she assumed that was because Camilla had been active a long time before the internet had existed.
Vampires were immortal.
Not invulnerable.
It was rare for one to live for centuries unless they were extremely powerful.
Mary slipped the phone back in her pocket as she heard footsteps coming from the other side of the door.
Camilla walked out of the room holding a long black cloak and a silver mask that had no openings for one's eyes, nose, or mouth.
"Put this on and active your seeing technique," Camilla ordered firmly as she threw the clothes at Mary.
The young woman hastily grabbed them in mid-air to prevent the items from falling on the ground.
She wasn't exactly sure what this was about, but it was always safe to obey the beautiful vampire's orders, so Mary complied.
Mary wrapped the black cloak around her body and then tied the piece of string so that it concealed all of her features.
She placed the mask over her face activated her pupil technique. Her piercing green eyes shone with golden luster that was concealed by the heavy silver mask.
It was a bit strange, but Mary could see relatively well despite the mask blocking her direct line of sight.
She completed the outfit by tossing the hood over her head and then waiting to see what Camilla's next orders were.
The female vampire walked over to her servant who was now completely disguised. She leaned in closer and began to sniff her body.
Mary stood completely still as she saw Camilla come ever so closer until she was mere inches away from her flesh.
Camilla sniffed one more time and then her lips gently curved upwards to form a satisfied smile that made her look even prettier.
"Good," Camilla clapped her hands together and looked at her servant.
"Your scent has been completely hidden by that outfit. I couldn't even sense the disgusting stench of your Sun-born nature."
"Thanks?" Mary replied without thinking in an offended tone of voice.
Luckily Camilla was distracted by her good mood, so she didn't notice her servant's disrespectful tone.
pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ "Alright human…" the beautiful vampire's voice trailed off as she stared at Mary with excitement barely concealed in her eyes.
"It's time to leave the castle!"
