But then, few people ever dared venture here. Black tapestries hung from the walls. They bore no designs, no decoration. Behind them stood the thick stone walls of the tower, the Tower of the Tristens, Vlad and Esmelda. In this inner room no light would penetrate, save for the light of a single candle that flickered weakly at the far end of the room. It was all very reassuring, if you were dead. Two thrones were in this room. In one sat the Queen of Darkness, safe from the heat outside in the towerÕs cool depths, a goblet of blood in her hand. In the other throne, beside her, sat her husband Vlad. His hand twitched. ÒSo itÕs true,Ó Vlad said to himself. Esmelda did not move, but said, ÒWhatÕs true?Ó Vlad scowled. ÒCanÕt I even mumble to myself?Ó Vlad asked. ÒItÕs hot outside,Ó Esmelda said. ÒThe night will come,Ó Vlad answered. ÒItÕs hot at night too,Ó Esmelda said. ÒI canÕt control the weather dear,Ó Vlad said. Now Esmelda turned to him. ÒYou shouldnÕt be sitting here. You should fix your fucking machine,Ó she said. ÒIÕm working on it,Ó Vlad answered. ÒBy sitting on your ass?Ó Esmelda snapped. Vlad frowned. ÒItÕs daylight. ItÕs hot outside. When the night comes IÕll feel like working on it again.Ó ÒEveryoneÕs asleep,Ó Esmelda said. ÒExcept us.Ó ÒJet lag,Ó Vlad said. Esmelda looked at him. ÒAn effect of time travel is that it can produce sleeplessness. It will wear off in a few days.Ó He looked at his wifeÕs face. She seemed tired, but, like himself, here she was, in the middle of the day, wide awake on her throne. He didnÕt mention the other ill effect of time travel. For about an hour they sat in silence and then Esmelda, remembering the goblet in her hand, drained what was in it. Immediately she called out for more. A figure came scurrying into the room. ÒOver here!Ó Esmelda called, as the figure stood blinking in the doorway, his eyes adjusting to the light. Then, cringing, the creature came forward and took the goblet from EsmeldaÕs right hand. She snarled as he took it from her. Then he hurried to the door, and as he went out through the doorway, just briefly, the figure of a man was visible. ÒFucking ghoul,Ó Esmelda swore. ÒHurry up!Ó she cried at the open doorway. ÒYou shouldnÕt be so--Ó Vlad began, then stopped himself. EsmeldaÕs head snapped at him. ÒI shouldnÕt be so what?!Ó she asked. ÒDemanding,Ó Vlad said. He trembled. He balled a fist. ÒSay please and thank you next time.Ó ÒPlease and thank you?!Ó Esmelda cried. She leapt up from her throne. She stalked over to her husband and looked at him, hard. She pointed. Her hand quivered and she said, ÒPlease fix your fucking machine. Do you hear me?!Ó she shouted. Vlad cringed and said, ÒYes, dearest! I hear you!Ó Esmelda frowned. ÒYou havenÕt called me that in awhile,Ó she said. Vlad nodded. ÒPerhaps I should do it more often,Ó he said. He gazed into his wifeÕs lovely eyes. ÒDear, IÕm sorry,Ó he said. ÒIÕm sorry that when we got all the blood loaded on my machine this morning it didnÕt go anywhere. I promise that just as soon as the night comes IÕll get working on it and, well--Ó He stood up. Esmelda had to step back to get out of his way and he said, stepping down off the dias where their thrones were mounted, ÒPerhaps I should go and try fixing it now.Ó ÒYes!Ó Esmelda snapped. She sat back down on her throne. She blinked. Then she said, ÒTell that fucking ghoul to get in here before I drink his blood.Ó ÒYes, my queen,Ó Vlad answered. 30 ------------------- Naughty Naked Dreamgirls! ------------------- -- More stories at: http://groups.google.com/ Search by typing: roller666@earthlink.net Click on ÒPower SearchÓ Change ÒstandardÓ archive to ÒcompleteÓ archive. -- Other providers: IFLC: http://assm.asstr.org and http://asstr.org AnyaÕs LilÕ Hideaway: http://www.insatiable.net/ Silver: http://www.mr-yellow.com/goodies The Backdrop Club: http://www.backdrop.com Usenet Newsgroup: alt.sex.stories.moderated -- Great art books by David Hamilton and Jock Sturges are at: http://www.amazon.com http://bn.com (photos of naked little girls) -- Naked little girls/politics: http://www.AlessandraSmile.com Man/boy love: http://www.nambla.de Politics: http://www.lp.org http://www.isil.org http://www.fear.org http://www.fija.org http://www.aclu.org -- Naughty Naked Dreamgirls (Library of Congress ISSN: 1070-1427) is copyright 2001 by Andrew Roller.
