Last Guardian

Dracula's POV Another day of work and being disturbed by my employees. My life is becoming boring and so is my darn, it has been really interesting over the century blending in with the humans, being in control and all but I don't want it anymore maybe I should join the military instead " Good morning sir, your tea is already set on your desk just as you like," said Melody my assistant slush bodyguard, I don't need a bodyguard and all but it's all a necessity for a person of my status to have a couple of those lurking around for protection " sure thanks a lot Melody, anything I have to look out for?" I questioned walking in the direction of my office " not sir your schedule is free for now" " good I'd like to be left alone," I said and entered my office and the remarkable smell of blood entered my nostrils then I heard it, the sound of it leaking, dropping from my desk and I knew without a dought it was hard to be mommy dearest she likes sending these bloody notes I don't want to read it but I do anyway Royal summons your presence is hereby commended by her royal highness queen Claudia Darren in the great room this afternoon at the castle she never ceases to amaze me after all these centuries yet she has managed to keep her charisma but this has to stop she can't keep sending these bloody letters or whatever they're called. I can't go back to that life that darkness that almost consumed. I quickly clean up the mess not wanting anyone to see it after that I went to the conference room for a meeting. This is not the first time this is happening over the years since I left home she has been sending me these she calls them the royal summons, which must be tended to but I haven't been a good son of late so I just shrug them off and that's but things seem different this time this is the like the third time this week first it was on my kitchen counter then on my bed. I'm not in the mood for her little games and this long meeting isn't helping at all with all these crappie suggestions and unnecessary talks that are making the meeting even more boring than it already is. " I have new designs of mine tractor you might like," Mike says as he takes the podium his need to impress never ceases. Mike is my day one best friend and cousin too he always knows when and how to lighten the mood and starts flipping through the designs while explaining every one of them " and this beast here " he pointed to what seemed to be his main design and damn it was one hell of a beast. he went on and on explaining the features and all it felt like forever. I started sweating like literally sweating and I never sweat I'm a damn fire-spitting dragon! Once Mike finished his presentation I dismissed the meeting and dragged him to my office " what the hell man! What is that about?" he questioned I could feel his aggravation but at this moment I don't care much about that I locked the door then opened the bine to show him the blood from earlier " damn man, have you been bleeding or something?" he moved closer and noticed the note " now I see why," he said and turned to look at me " is that sweat? look, man, I know after all that happen you probably don't want to go back there but why don't you just go and hear her out it's probably something serious," said Mike touching my face as if to see if the sweat is real " I know alright, but I have a bad feeling about this I don't think going there's a good idea at all " " if you say so but you do know that this is just the beginning right? you know how she gets when she's disobeyed" " she'll have to stop eventually, " I say while taking out my blazer, and all of a sudden I feel a sharp pain in my palm, some writing begin to appear and the barstad cousin of mine starts to laugh like there's no tomorrow " she'll stop eventually right?" he says between his laughs " I could accompany you if don't want to go alone you know" I just glared at him and left the office I wanted to just jump through the window and turn but someone might see me and it wouldn't be fun at all these humans don't like things they don't understand. I was buckling my seat belt when I heard the passenger door is closed, I knew who it was so I didn't bother looking " This is going to be a hell of a ride!" mike exclaims as he turns the volume up " tell me about it" this is not how I expected to start my week honestly but I don't seem to have much of a choice mostly because my palm is "burning" figuratively off cause. " there's a police car behind us man," he says but I fail to see the problem, it's not like I'm driving on the wrong side or anything " yeah, and so?" I obliviously question " dude you're driving on the wrong side" oh great he should have seen that coming not that I did it on purpose or anything but I'm born trouble maker, mischief is like my middle name, these things are bound to happen. I quickly shift to the other side and pull over. " Gentleman what brings out this far on a Monday?" the officer question err d and leaned on the window " good morning officer we're going to a nearby village for an errand " I replied " you should have noticed you were driving on the wrong side of the road through " seriously? this man is got to be kidding! I don't have time for this " Sir we're going to pick our mother and take her to the hospital she's having convulsions. as you can see my brother here is very stressed and sweating" did I mention Mike is a big liar earlier? I don't link so, then can lie better and faster than he can even blink " if that's the case, then hurry along I wish your mother a quick recovery," he says as he parts the door and walks off
