The servants including the madame who had been called out shuddered in fear as they stood in front of Dante.
The madame especially regretted how bad she had let things escalate. It was just that she had been annoyed by how haughty Camilla had been acting. She had wanted to see how long Camilla would last before she humbled herself. She hadn't meant to let it go so far.
She knew Dante wouldn't let this go, he hated disrespect more than anything. She had seen him kill men for less.
Dante cleared his throat and they all faced him waiting for his decision.
"I am angry at how the events of today happened and I am disappointed in you especially madame. I specifically told you in private that Camilla was to be given light chores. But instead I heard you did the exact opposite. And the rest of you, there was a provocation happening in the kitchen and instead of y'all to interfere and settle the matter, you stayed in the background twittering and laughing at your own stupidity. You are all lucky that she didn't die or have any permanent damage, otherwise you would all be dead. Do you have anything to say for yourselves?". He asked them.
They all went down on their knees to tell him they were sorry. The madame started to speak.
"I am very sorry Master, I have no excuse to give for my behavior. I only ask that you spare the others, I was the one who egged them on to do it"
"You are in no position to tell me what to do" he told her. She looked down afraid of meeting his gaze.
"I thought of killing you all at first but I changed my mind but then I thought about giving you several lashes of the whips and firing you all. I also changed my mind about that" do you know why?" he asked them.
"No master" they replied.
"Because Camilla pleaded on your behalf"
They all looked at him in surprise.
"Yes, Camilla the girl you bullied and insulted pleaded on your behalf. I will forgive you all this time but the next time you try this would be the end of you. Do you understand me?"
"Yes Master" they replied.
"You may all go" he told them.
"Thank you master" they told me.
"Don't thank me, thank Camilla instead" he told them and walked away.
...
Valerie stood dressed in finery like a virgin about to be sold to the highest bidder. For the first time, he admitted to himself that this mission was more dangerous than anything he had ever encountered. He was in over his head.
Dracaryx had instructed that he should be washed and shaved thoroughly. That had been the most humiliating thing he had ever done in his life.
Then he had been dressed and brought here to wait for Dracaryx.
Valerie liked to prepare himself for any mission he took on. He liked to plan ahead and prepare for any challenges he might encounter.
Now he didn't even know the challenges he would encounter or how to deal with them.
The door opened and Dracaryx walked in. He walked up to Valerie and tilted his chin up.
"You clean up well" he told him. Valerie kept quiet because he honestly didn't know what to say.
Dracaryx gripped his chin roughly, "when you receive a compliment, you say thank you, is that understood?" he asked.
"Yes" Valerie replied.
Dracaryx smiled and released his chin, Valerie was about to sigh in relief when he received a slap from Dracaryx.
He held his cheek in shock and looked at him.
"You reply 'yes Master' when I ask you a question, is that understood?"
"Yes Master" Valerie replied.
"Good boy" Dracaryx replied and patted his cheek fondly.
"Now, I am going to lay down some rules you will follow while you are still alive;
One-you are to stay in this room, you aren't to go out unless I tell you to.
Two-you are to address me with respect at all times.
Three - you belong to me, your body, spirit and soul belongs to me. I don't share.
Four - you are to do anything you are asked to do without complaint. Is that understood?"
"Yes Master" Valerie replied.
"Good boy" Dracaryx praised.
"now strip off your clothes and get on your knees" he ordered.
Valerie quickly took off his clothes and knelt on the floor.
"Stand up" Dracaryx ordered.
He got up. "too slow" Dracaryx remarked.
"Go down again" Dracaryx ordered. Valerie dropped to his knees quickly.
"get up" he ordered.
Valerie quickly understood that Dracaryx was testing how fast he could get on his knees and stand up again, so he showed his speed and flexibility in doing so.
Dracaryx was impressed and clapped in approval.
"Such a unique pet, so fast in learning tricks".
"Thank you master" Valerie replied.
Dracaryx walked around him and examined him.
"You are beautiful and have a beautiful body as well" he complimented Valerie.
"Thank you master"
"But how reactive is it? I would like to find out" Dracaryx said.
He stretched out his hand and trailed it slowly on Valerie's chest. His fingers slowly rubbed Valerie's nipples until they became hard little nubs on his chest.
Valerie was becoming aroused, the slow torture Dracaryx fingers were doing was making his body come alive. Valerie was a virgin, he dedicated all of his time to work and this was the first time he was been touched in such a way.
His cock was become hardened and pulsing. Valerie tried to cover it but Dracaryx shoved his hands away.
"There is no shame in your body reaction at all" he replied.
He reached down and grasped the erect cock in his hands and slowly gripped it to and fro.
"Ahhhhhh!" Valerie moaned aloud as his sensitive cock head was being rubbed over and over. Precum dribbled out of him repeatedly and Dracaryx would smear it all over the cock using it as a lubricant.
"How many lovers have you had? And don't bother lying I would know" Dracaryx asked him.
"None Master" Valerie moaned.
"Hmmm, you are indeed saying the truth. Oh I am going to have so much fun with you" Dracaryx said.
He kept on stroking Valerie's weeping cock while his other hand played with his nipples endlessly. With a loud groan, Valerie reached his orgasm, coming in Dracaryx hand.
"I am so sorry, I didn't mean to" he apologized as soon as he recovered from the euphoric high of his climax.
"Don't apologize, I quite like it" Dracaryx told him as he licked his hand clean.
"You seem to be quite smart and resourceful. I find it hard to believe that you would purposely allow yourself to be caught, what's your mission here and remember I would know if you lie" Dracaryx asked him.
"I am Valerie Russo and I am from the Russo Mafia family. My family is an alliance with other mafia families. The route I was captured is one of our trade routes. But recently all our men have been attacked and found dead and our goods have been taken. I researched and found out about the Vitale family and suspected that they were the ones behind it. I decided to come here and allow myself to be captured so I could meet with the family myself and find out we were being attacked and how to stop it." Valerie replied.
"You didn't lie, but why you? Of all people why were you the one sent? What's special about you?" Dracaryx asked.
"I am an assassin. I am trained for such missions. I am the leader of my family's assassin guild" Valerie replied.
"Hmmm! So my good boy is an assassin. I will do a little research about you too" Dracaryx said with a smile on his face.
"May I ask a question Master?" Valerie asked.
"Yes, you may" Dracaryx replied.
"The dead bodies of our men we found were found drained of blood, how is that possible?" he asked.
"You are the assassin, why not tell me?" Dracaryx asked him in return.
"When I drain bodies of blood, it's a long process and it takes time to completely drain the body. The time frame of the attack and when the bodies were found doesn't add up" Valerie replied.
Dracaryx patted his cheek again. "smart boy" he praised him.
"I will show you how it was done" he told Valerie.
He opened his mouth and Valerie gasped in surprise as two long fangs descended.
Dracaryx grazed his jugular lightly with his fangs and then he sank his teeth into his neck and drew out blood which he sucked eagerly.
Valerie expected pain from the bite rather he experienced an extreme jolt of pleasure. Dracaryx withdrew from him too soon for his liking and the pleasure stopped.
"That's how it was fine, smart boy" Dracaryx told him.
Valerie regained his senses back and looked at him in shock and fear.
"You are a vampire" he stated the obvious.
"Yes I am, good boy" he replied.
"But you aren't supposed to exist, you are supposed to be a fairy tale" Valerie said.
Dracaryx patted his head like he was a little puppy.
"I am going to have a lot of fun with you. Dress up and sit down, someone will be here with food soon" he said and walked out of the room.
Valerie dressed up and sat down quietly and waited for his food
