Colorless Poison.

Victoria stood in a daze as Alucard vanished from her sight. She did not register what just happened. She mumbled in a low voice, "I was visited by the Progenitor, Alucard Tepes?"

Her mind was hyped as if it was on a sugar rush. She walked out of the room and came to the bar in the house. The bar had a lot of liquors kept on the shelves. A servant was posted to stay here at all times. She said, "Honey Dew Wine."

The servant bowed slightly and took out a bottle that was filled with wine. Actually, it was blood with honey blended in it. It is kept like that to age and enhance the taste. At least, to the vampires. He skillfully filled a goblet and handed it to the girl in front of him. Victoria, unlike her lady-like behavior, gulped down the whole thing and asked for a refill. She only calmed her hyped brain after three goblets.

She had to intoxicate her on this thing to calm down. you can imagine the pressure she felt with Alucard visiting her. Even though Oleksiy never talked about it but the vampire circle was aware of why the glorious Vlad family was decreased to a selected few. She had also found out that the Vlad family was punished by the progenitor for some insolence.

As she walked back to her room, the blood princess recalled the appearance of the Progenitor. She suddenly came to a stop, in her memory, Alucard Tepes, the mighty progenitor had a bloodstain under his eye. She presumed that the man had cried the tears of blood, that was something a vampire would shed only when they were in deep pain.

She entered her room and the words spoken by Alucard echoed in her ears. She was stunned by the fact that the progenitor came to warn her about not hurting his son or she will be put through immense torture lasting for an eternity. A faint blush appeared on her face when she recalled how Alucard told her that Bones also felt a heartbeat when he laid sights on her.

This whole thing made her believe that the man loved his son, Bones, very much. Her blush intensified when she recalled, "Look after my son." The girl mumbled, "Did he acknowledge me as his daughter-in-law."

Her heart was not beating at this moment but if it was, it would be like a horse treading on a racecourse. After a few minutes, Victoria calmed down and in her mind echoed the things she heard about Bones heart being filled with hatred that makes him numb to the feeling of love. This also took her back to the moment when the two people met in the cemetery, she remembers the longing and pain in his eyes as he gazed upon his mother's grave.

She mumbled, "You are wrong, Alucard Tepes. Inside him still lies a person longing for love and care. I will care for him and I will love him all he wants. I will show you that his hatred is just a false front."

Lost in her thought, Victoria fell asleep unknowingly.

...

In the morning, a maid came to wake up the girl. Victoria stretched her body and after freshening up she dressed in Blue jeans and a white cotton tunic top. She paired them with a pair of white flat-base sneakers. She looked like the time she was a student in her senior year. She was in a good mood.

The blood princess walked out of her room and came straight to the living room. Oleksiy Vlad was waiting for her in a night robe. He saw with one leg over the other and his cunning eyes flashing from time to time. he gazed at Victoria, who was walking down the stairs, and said, "I came up with a way to lure Bones."

Victoria was surprised and asked, "What is it?"

Oleksiy Vlad replied, "In the past, I have tried every scheme against him, except for one. I used to think that he might not be interested in it. But yesternight I realized that if planned well everything can work. Bones want to kill me so much that he will not hesitate even for a second. Humph, so this time I will use that hate against him." his chin raised a bit as he said that.

Victoria asked with a chuckle, "What would that be father?"

"Have you contact him. You will lead him to me. I will kill him once and for all." said the man. His words made Victoria smile but her heart also felt a strong disgust over this man.

She was happy that he is sending her to Bones but then again how can a father use his own daughter as bait?

She shook her head and said, "This will not work, father. There are a lot of reasons. Firstly, he hates you and everything and everyone related to you. So, he will not let me get close to him. Second, if we attacked him and by a chance, he survived. This will be the end of us. We need to do something sure shot."

Oleksiy Vlad pondered and asked, "What you said is true but I cannot think of anything else. Do you have any suggestions?"

Victoria nodded and said, "Do you remember the family head duel?" her words shocked Oleksiy. He asked, "Do you mean using Bones as Champion?"

His eyes were shining brightly. Victoria nodded as she spoke, "I go to tribunal, call for a Family head challenge. Ask Bones as my champion. I will take him for the training period, two weeks that is. During this training, I will poison him slowly. Don't work it is odorless, colorless, and tastes like water. It will work only after the amount has been accumulated. What do you think?"

Oleksiy gazed at his daughter and started laughing. He praised her for such a plan. This could work and the chances are also high.
