"Crown Prince , I think she'll be making plans on how to escape"
"Loroo , isn't that perfect? "
"B..but how's that perfect , I mean you've been searching for her for a very long time and now you've seen her you want to let her escape?"
"Yes ".
"Why? "
"Since when did I become answerable to you Loroo?" Dracula asked . His nails started becoming long and his eyes colour changed .
"Am sorry , I'll take my leave" Loroo said and turned to leave .
"I don't recall asking you to leave ,Loroo !"
"Create a portal , I need to go to belius"
"Yes , my Prince ". Loroo bowed and breathed out an air of relief . Dracula's aura made the room very suffocating for him . He could barely breathe .

Jennie took out her pen and paper and and decided to draw out an escape route . She had difficulties in drawing the map because she's not gone out of her room since she was brought there . So she decided to go through every room and opening in the house . The first place she went to was the garden and she momentarily forgot her mission . She started admiring the flowers and got lost in them .
"Jennie don't be distracted , that devil must have purposely left these here to entice me. I need to go round this mansion to be able to draw an escape plan ." She got up and began going to the rooms while drawing the map on her paper . She got to a room and had slight difficulties in breathing . The ambience of the room was suffocating and the room was painted black . It was as if there's no living soul in that room . It was dark too and kind of scary but Jennie has always been a fan of mysteries . So instead of stepping out and closing the room she went further into it . It was difficult for her to navigate through the room due to the thick darkness but even though everything was dark , those green eyes were shining brightly and staring intently at her !!.
"Amaranth , did you miss my presence so much that you had to come look for me ?"Dracula smirked .
"Why would I search for a devil like you ? I only came here accidentally ." Jennie replied sitting down at the stool in front of him .
"Seems like you're drawing a map of my house , what for ? to escape ?"
"It's none of your business Lucifer "
"Lucifer ?" Dracula chuckled
"Since you've named me Amaranth , I've decided to give you a name too , besides Lucifer is the name of the devil "
"That's smart of you , so aren't you afraid of me ? you're looking relaxed sitting there after what you saw some hours ago "
"Yeah , am not afraid of you . Instead am curious , what exactly are you ?"
"Do you need to ask when you've got the answer already?, don't forget am Lucifer the devil . You said that yourself"
"Come on , you know I was just making guesses . I meant what creature are you cause am sure you're not a human "
"What do you think? "
"A vampire , werewolf, elf, fawn , mermaid, nope cancel mermaids, they live in water .Actually these creatures are all myths . I've got thousands of stories about them in my room . I doubt they exist but seeing you , I think they might be existing "
"Amaranth you-"
"Jennie, my name's Jennie not Amaranth"
"As I was saying before your rude interruption which I would not tolerate again !. Amaranth, all these creatures you've listed do exist and you're of them "
"I didn't know you had a sense of humour Lucifer "Jennie chuckled.
"Well , I don't . I just state facts . Have you ever wondered what the name Amaranth means ?"
"Nope ."
"Amaranth is a flower that symbolises immortality . "
"So what does that have to do with me " Jennie asked with a look that said "you'd better not be messing with me "
"Ever wondered why I call you flower , when I come to your dreams ?"
"You pervert ! you kissed me in my dream . Ugh , those dreams were messing up my life . At a time I thought I'll run mad . As if that's not enough , sometimes some ugly creatures with long nails would come and try picking my flesh . It was so scary , having those dreams every night . Luckily dad got me a medicine that set me free from your evil clutches . "
"You're not answering my question, Amaranth"
"Alright , I don't know "
"Legend has it that a flower would descend here on earth and the flower has the power to grant immortality to any man that has a taste of it "
"What does have to do with me? "
"All the creatures began to seek for this flower , including Sango . I wasn't interested in this flower search since am an immortal already . A prophecy came that this flower would be my mate . You can imaging how funny it sounded hearing that you'll spend all your life with a flower . I mean who fucks a flower ?. Then I began to make research and I discovered the flower would come in form of a human .Sango could have easily let it go but hearing that the flower would be my mate made him determined to have that flower . Who wouldn't want to have a flower of immortality for themself . The name Amaranth was given to the flower because of its significance. "
"So I am a flower "Jennie laughed .
"You were supposed to be a flower but here you are "
"oh please , why would I be a flower "Jennie frowned .
"Cos it would have been better if you were a flower . I have no time for this mate stuff . I can't love you ,am not ready for it and would never will . The worst part is that you're stuck with me for life , poor thing "
"Lucifer , why would I love you ? you don't deserve it and besides the fact that you're not human is good a enough reason to flee from you "
"Yeah , I see you're drawing a plan already"
"Don't think I believe your cock and bull story . I must commend your story telling skill , go and write a book you'll get lots of award nominations. Soon David's gonna find me, we'll get married and live happily ever after "
"The same man you ran away from on your wedding day simply because you don't love him "
"You call that simply ? love is not something you should play with . How'll you understand, you heartless monster . Soon I'll discover how you change your eyes colour and write a book on it . It might be a kind of mutation you got "
"You can leave now , this discussion is over "Dracula stood up and walked towards the window .
"Am leaving already, you don't know how suffocating it is staying in the same environment with you ". Jennie sighed and left the room .
