--------------------------------

After getting engaged to a man she's never met. Caroline moves to the Van Estate, where she realizes that her husband to be, is not who he seems.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Caroline!"

The voice of her pursuer calls out to her, as she turns down the darkly lit corridor, hoping to elude them. But the footsteps only get closer, and closer. She runs down the end of the corridor, to a crossroad.

"Right or left?"

The footsteps get closer.

"Was the exit right or left?!"

She thinks to herself, as the voice once again calls out to her.

"Caroline! Come out, come out, wherever you are!"

"Right!"

She turns down the right corridor and runs as fast as she's able. As she gets closer, a bright light shines through. Causing her to almost leap with joy, she had chosen the right way! Or at least that's what she had thought. As she gets closer she realizes that this is in fact a dead end. The light was coming from a window; taking up the majority of the wall. She turns to go back, but she's met with a familiar pair of vibrant, purple eyes, staring back at her from the end of the hallway. She freezes in fear, as the figure grins, and calmly walks towards her.

"Found you."

The Countess and Her Knight

Caroline was not to be let out of her chamber. Iris brought her dinner that night, but other than that no one had come inside the room. 


The following morning she lay in bed for hours staring at the ceiling, thinking of a plan to escape this nightmare. The door opens, interrupting her thoughts. 


Iris walks in with an elderly man, who appears to be a doctor. Caroline shoots up. “Help me please!” She yells. “He’s a vampire, you have too-” The man interrupts her. “My God it's worse than I had anticipated. She’s hysterical. Hold her down.” 


Iris walks over to her. “No!” Caroline yells out, but Iris holds her down. 


The doctor checks Caroline out, and quickly comes to a conclusion. “The hysteria should die down, it's normal in pregnancy.”
