We all gathered outside in a rush to see who it would be. On the pathway stood a young girl with an umbrella. Her coat was black and brown like Via’s and the purple umbrella seemed to shade her from the sun. Via walked out to her and whispered something in her ear. The girl shape shifted into a young beautiful woman. That girl was a shape shifter of night! I read about them in a book of what gods should fear.

“Everyone, this is my sister Vera. Second goddess of vampires, the vampires of night and nocturnal,” Via announced.

“Hello everyone, nice to meet you,” Vera said slyly.

Her dress matched Via’s and they looked identical at the moment. Her pale skin shaded by the purple umbrella took my breath away, I was mesmerized. I had never been so enchanted by a woman yet here I was gawking at her eternal skin and glorious eyes.

Snap out of it I told myself she is made to enchant men into a daze of love, don’t get caught in that same daze. I am a god higher than her, use that to your advantage.

“Nice to meet you lord,” Vera said, she shook my hand and I smelt a sweet lavender aroma how could I resist.

“Well I should take you to your room,” Venella said. “Let's get you settled in.”

“Thankyou,” I whisper to her, I knew Venella would not let her get to me before she herself could take me down to add to her collection of concurred kings and lords. Their rivalry would keep me alive.
