Tension

Edwin couldn’t even bring himself to be mad as he and Jamie rode home in their car. Heavy silence crushed the both of them as Jamie bounced his leg uncomfortably next to Edwin.

Jamie opened his mouth every now and then to say something, but he decided against everything he could possibly say.

Finally, they arrived back at Lavant manor. Jamie got out of the car and held the door for Edwin as he exited the vehicle and walked up the front steps.

“Could you bring some blood and alcohol to my room as soon as you get comfortable again?” he asked, still not looking at Jamie.

Jamie meekly nodded. “Of course, my Lord,” he said as he quickly headed off to his room.

In his room, Edwin began undressing. This night was way too emotional for him, and he wished he could just drown his sorrows in copious amounts of alcohol and blood.
