The story of a 16th Century vampire.
“How shall we begin?” asked the vampire mindfully.
Angela Polidori has invited a vampire into her house, but this is not the type of vampire she normally interviews for her blog; this is the notorious Blood Countess of Hungary.
The vampire woman is eager to share her story and begins to tell her tale of bloodlust, betrayal, and revenge. The studious librarian, Angela, is more than willing to listen to the enchanting, disturbing, and erotic confessions of the 16th century vampire woman as she carries us back in time to a fateful night in Venice, where the mysterious stranger chose to steal her away from the mortal world of the living and embraced her into eternal darkness. She takes us back to the place and time of her birth in Transylvania…to the night she was forcefully turned into a bloodthirsty creature of the night…to the dark castle of the most notorious vampire in all of history…to Bohemia, where she meets the eldest vampires in the world…and finally to Prague, where she begins her quest for revenge against the one who made her the villainous monster that she ultimately became.
Excerpt
“That is fine. Let us begin with your birth then. Or did you want to begin like David Copperfield? You were born…you grew up,” Angela asked.
Drusilla shook her head and smiled. “David Copperfield the book, not the magician, doesn’t begin that way, actually. I believe the second sentence is as follows,” Drusilla went on to quote the book, “To begin my life with the beginning of my life, I record that I was born on a Friday, at twelve o'clock at night.”
“Sorry. An interview with a vampire joke,” Angela said with a smile. “Never even read David Copperfield.”
“Great books, both of them, but we digress, do we not?” Drusilla asked with a pleasantly excited smile forming on her red lips.
“You have my full attention,” Angela replied and adjusted herself within the chair as so that she would be more relaxed and comfortable. She also prepared her pen and notebooks as if she were readying herself to take extensive notes.
“Excellent,” Drusilla said, “I shall begin then with the date and time of my birth, much like this David Copperfield you speak of.”
“Continue,” Angela said.
“I was born in the Kingdom of Hungary on August 8th in the year of 1560–” Drusilla began.
