The Vampire’s Servant novel Chapter 6

After about ten minutes of driving, we pulled up to a tall stone fence with a big gate. Victor pressed the button on his car visor and the gate opened. Pretty lamps lined the driveway to the house.

It was a huge mansion. Like my house times two stacked on another three. It would take me a couple days to clean it. I didn’t think I’d have as much free time as he let on.

We got out of the car, I grabbed my bags, and he led me into the house. There was marble everywhere. A big staircase looped like a giant ‘C’ in front of us.

“Your room is on the second floor. Come on.” Victor said, hurrying up the stairs.

I went as fast as I could to stay near him. He turned right at the top of the stairs and continued down the hall. When he finally stopped, he turned to me and pointed to the door.

“You can make a sign for it so you can find it more easily in the future. For now, just leave the door open when you leave. Across the hall is the master suite. That’s the first room I want you to focus on, after you get the kitchen settled. I will sleep there once it’s done. I need the windows blacked out, furniture, curtains, and some decoration. I don’t like a bare room. But, first.” He said and opened the door.

Victor pulled me into the room and turned on the light. It was three times as big as the little basement room I slept in. There was a bed as large as Harmony’s with a thick blanket and pillows that weren’t flat.

He took me to a door that opened to a bathroom with a tub and a shower that wasn’t covered in rust and moldy cracks, like the one in my basement. Next, he showed me a closet so big, I could put my little bed in it and call it my room.

It was all too much. I never imagined I’d get to have a room like this.

“You might want to buy new sheets. The person who made these purchases wasn’t great at selecting quality.” Victor sneered.

I went to the bed and checked the sheets. Apparently I wasn’t great at selecting quality either, because they felt amazing. I was super excited to go to sleep.

“What would you like me to work on tomorrow? It’s Sunday, so not much will be open. My mom says everything is closed on Sundays.” I said.

“Tomorrow, Drew will come take you shopping for clothes, kitchen items, and groceries. I’ll call him tonight. He’ll give you a rundown on what it means to be a human servant. He’s Silence’s servant and has been for over a hundred years. For now, you’re only a daytime servant. You’re here by choice. If you choose to stay, I’ll make a bond with you and give you my blood. That won’t happen until you are eighteen, though.” He explained.

“Alright. I’ll be prepared.” I answered.

“This is your home now. You are free to do as you like, just complete the work I assign first. Would you like a tour?”

I nodded and followed him after setting down my bags.

Aside from my room, there were eight guest rooms. The master suite was practically as big as the living room in my old house. Downstairs there was an office, living room, dining room, kitchen, family room, and library. He showed me the basement door and told me he slept there for now.

He looked about as happy as I was while living in the basement. A few times on the tour, I nearly laughed while he growled about the furniture. I would make sure my master had everything he wanted and needed as quickly as I could. He paid a lot for me and was giving me a lot, it was the least I could do.
