took me through the training
which would help me survive this new world I was
entering.
    Tonight had been my final test I
was left to go out into the night and seduce my prey. Luring him
into a safe place I would disarm him in the most sensual of ways.
Post orgasm was when a man was most vulnerable and this was the
preferred method that female vampires used to collect their food.
When I had initially been introduced to the process my previously
mortal brain rejected the idea in futile modesty. It wasn’t until
the hunger grew to an all consuming compulsion that I relented and
was helped to my first kill.
    Unfortunately human blood was
required for our existence and the lack of it would cause a painful
and grotesque death. In a pinch animal blood could get me through a
day or two but after that I needed a human host. I had tried to be
selective in my hunting rationalizing the pros and cons of a
particular target. In the end it was a lot easier to just select
the most attractive targets as that made the rest of my night more
enjoyable.
    As we returned to the estate my
coven brothers and sisters were waiting for me. Sebastian nodded to
the group and I was overwhelmed with congratulatory hugs and
kisses. This was a big moment in the life of a vampire. Although I
had much to learn and centuries in which to learn it, I was now
self sufficient and could choose whether to stay in the safety of
the estate or head out on my own to chart my own path. Members had
left before to try and start their own covens. This had not
happened in some time and more then once they had crawled back to
the safety and security Ulrich provided. I held no illusion about
the extent of my abilities. I felt safe among my new family and had
made a great friend in Sebastian. There was no way that I would be
leaving the comforts of my new home anytime soon.
     
    The coven had thrown quite the
celebration for me after arriving home. Once the rituals had been
performed and the festivities were over the house returned to it’s
normal quiet contemplation. Walking around the vast mansion I
always wondered what was going through the minds of the other
vampires. Very few of them were less then one hundred years old and
many of them hand been on earth for closer to one thousand years.
What kind of memories did they reflect upon? What had they been in
life before they were taken?
    The storied history that filled
our walls fascinated me and I began to think about what future
worlds I would witness come into existence. These thoughts that
bounced around my head were interrupted as I felt the hunger begin
to squeeze at my insides.
    The hunger is a difficult thing to
describe. It consumes you and dominates your every thought. You can
feel it physically through your entire being. As the sun fell and
night approached the hunger would grow and the tension at the
estate thickened. You quickly learned that this was a sensitive
time and you needed to be careful not to accidentally anger a
hungry vampire. As a general rule a hungry vampire was a dangerous
vampire and you could quickly find yourself in a battle for your
life. Although immortal we still possessed some
weaknesses.
    The sunlight was painful on our
skin but not fatal. A stake through the heart was probably going to
sting like hell but would not end our lives. There were two ways in
which we were truly vulnerable. Fire was something to be avoided at
all costs and would end our lives in a very slow and painful way.
Decapitation would also put a quick end to our immortal run.
Vampires mad with hunger had been known in the past to attack one
another slicing right through their necks with a blade or
tooth.
    Due to this loss of inhibition it
was customary for the coven to disperse at sundown and hunt alone.
Once the prey had been slaughtered and the thirst was quenched the
lone hunters would return to the safety of the communal coven.
During the course of the last month Sebastian had fed early and
accompanied me on my kills,
