A long time to wait

    by: white olive Author IconMail Icon
You keep in mind what the bum told you but all of this seems too strange that you finally convince yourself that you just hallucinated because of all this fear. Of course, you are not about to forget the rumors saying that people who came to Vampyre Lane disappeared but this person looks like a normal person and don't seems aggressive.

You are entering, still looking at her very detailed costume... how much time and money did she spent on it? At least, you can say it, it was a very well done job, all these details could deceive anyone who could think she was a real monster...

The host led you in a living room near the entrance. The inside looks more modern and clearly less damaged than outside. You cross the old wooden creaky corridor and sit down on a chair she presents to you while a machine is preparing some coffee.
You thank her for being such generous but you could not remove your eyes from her body. At a moment, she noticed while filling a cup with coffee.

"-You look fascinated by me... First time you saw someone in disguise?"
"-I must say that it's the first time I so such detailed costume... you did a good job!"
"-Ho, I see... Well thanks but it was not that hard to make it, trust me... maybe soon you'll know my secret..."
"-Nah, no needs to spoil the surprise. But it's true that such costume fit your body so much that I would like to see your real face and how you're removing it. It looks like if it was sticked to you body! Haha!"

The wolf didn't reacted to your joke. Maybe it wasn't that funny than you thought? Or maybe she's ashamed by her real body?
You will maybe never know but for sure, it has made an awkward silence, a silence she broke only a few seconds later when she put your coffee on the table.

"-Thank you... Really, If I did say something wrong... I want you to know that I..."
"-No, it's okay!" She interrupted you with a grin. "Well, I'll go to the cellar as promised to bring you the candies of freedom! Please, hold on, stay here and don't touch anything. Can I trust you?"
"-Sure!" you say.

The woman left you all alone in the living room with your coffee you just started to drink. It was not the best coffee but it was a good one... hot, not too long, not too short, a perfect one to stay awake for all the night. Your little brother got to be ready because it's gonna kick some butt soon or later... Especially if your host bring you enough candies.

While you were waiting for her, you are looking around. She got a lot of shelves with plates and glasses but for some reasons, there no photos, no paintings showing people or even a tapestry... but such a place looks so old that It should have some pictures! It was almost like if she didn't wanted her visitors to know her true face...
Maybe, you were right and she was just considering herself as too ugly to be shown on a photo!

You are waiting. And it sounds like she was gone for an eternity... You decided to stand up and walk to the direction she took in order to reach the mentioned cellar. You reach a new room, a great hall with a huge table on the middle. You are not an expert in matter of houses and rooms but it was definitely a dinning room... and it windows are blocked with iron bars... what a strange house!
But since you're not living here, you don't know about the potential criminality. Perhaps Vampyre Lane got some burglars?

You are visiting the place, calling your host "Hello? Madam! Where are you? I'm still waiting!"
But you heard nothing. You called a second time "Madam?!".

A few steps later wondering if she got something, you heard a huge sound of wood echoing around you.
"What was that?"

You have the following choices:

1. It comes from the ceiling...

*Noteb*
2. It comes from the next room...

*Noteb*
3. It comes from the entrance...

*Noteb* indicates the next chapter needs to be written.
