▬ •• Edmund Prym •• ▬

Edmund woke up to the smell of sweat and the heat that came from skin-on-skin. There were around three girls lying around his bed; each one of them drained of their own blood and energy. And yet, the girls had nothing but smiles on their unconcious faces and tear-streaks below their eyes.

Edmund's cold eyes swept the room that became his refuge during cold nights and warm mornings, as he took in the different sensations of his environment. When he was satisfied and sure that he was indeed awake, He rose from the bed and pushed aside the unconcious bodies that were spread-eagled around him, without a second thought about their own comfort. He was done with them, and they were no longer useful to him. They were now nothing but trash.

And what else to do with trash, but throw them away?

He walked over to the little bar he had in his room, and poured himself a shot of his strongest vodka. He drank it down in one gulp, not bothering to lick any salt, or "chase it" as humans would put it. The alcohol had little effect on him, and only left him slightly awake after his little adventure with his many toys. He threw the shot glass at the far wall, smiling as he heard a satisfying crash as the fragile glass made contact with the cold stone wall. This was a common thing for him, because there was nothing mrore satisfying than breaking what is given for free, and throwing an innocent sot glass to an unwary wall.

His smile soon faded away as there was nothing else to entertain him, and no other shot glasses to waste. He put on his velvet robe and sat on a nearby armchair as he drank more vodka straight from the bottle to occupy his time. With each gulp he would breathe deeply, trying to imagine what it would be like to have heat rise up his cheeks...his cold cheeks who could not remember the feeling of blood flowing in it; only knowing the feeling of blood splashing on it when he ate.

The vodka was beginning to bore him, and so he threw the bottle at the door as he heard it opening. The left-over contents of the vodka bottle had splashed on the person who was about to enter, and even if it was a normal response to get angry, he kept quiet as he always did. The servant entered the room and bowed to the grinning vampire, "Sir, it is time for breakfast." Edmund observed the measly servant closely. His pitch black orbs scanning the man who had been serving his family for decades. People like the servant fascinated him to no end! The loyal, obedient, and hard-working type of people were such a wonder to the bored and wasteful Edmund. He couldn't imagine how horrible it was to be not him--- which made him all the more happier to be above everyone else.

Edmund scoffed, "breakfast? What took you so long, Hubbard? Can't you see, I've already eaten?" He sweeped his hand across the room as if brandishing his sweat-and-alcohol-smelling, woman-and-glass shard-filled room. He grinned at the little servant as he stood up from his armchair in an elegant manner, "Tell me Hubbard, isn't this food enough?" Hubbard, the servant, kept his ground and followed his orders, "No sir. Your father had told me to let you eat normal food at all meals. Now please sir, breakfast." Edmund drew his head back, making a cold and dark laugh escape from his pale lips. "You are very amusing Hubbard! I'll be down in a second then."

He sat down at the breakfast table and stared at his food. Even if he detested the boring and tasteless food, he still tried to eat it for his father. Though the reason why his father fancied normal food was beyond him--- nothing could ever beat the taste of blood.

"Morning Edmund," a young voice rose behind him. It was his sister, strolling in with her personal servant at her side. She was dressed in a delicate beige dress that swept across the floor, falling in gentle frills, and her favorite fur coat hugged her small shoulders.
"Did you enjoy your snack, Edmund?" she teased, smirking at her older brother. She knew well that Papa didn't like him being so abusive over everything and everyone he met.
"How many shot glasses does old Hubbard have to replace this time?" It was a cloudy night. The oddness of the weather encouraged her somehow to annoy her brother until he cracked. She giggled.
Her servant pulled out a chair for her so she could sit down at the long wooden table. A red cloth was draped over it and the cutlery was made of white-gold. There were little details all over the place that she overlooked too often, but because of her growing awareness due to her art classes, she started to notice and appreciate the refinement that engulfed her world.

"Thank you, Steven. You may be excused to attend personal matters now."
"Thank you, milady," the human boy of eighteen bowed and left the room, giving only one glance towards Edmund to check if he was struggling with anger. It was something Carmilla never really realized. Steven might be protective over her, or perhaps he was just scared of falling slave to a more cruel vampire.

Carmilla straightened herself in her chair as their father entered. He wore his usual garments - royal blue satin with fine golden thread embroidered in adoring curves and patterns.
"Papa!" she greeted him with a warm smile, as if she was completely innocent.

"Morning, morning," he replied in a gruff voice. He seemed distracted and distant in thought. He sat at the head of the table and clapped his hands for Hubbard to serve them breakfast. The family servant scurried around to get everything done. Everyone dug in. The meat was tender and the vegetables steamed and scrumptious. The taste was dulled, however, and it never quenched her thirst for blood.

"Papa? Why don't we hire more servants?" she suggested, not really looking up from her plate. She often worried herself over the less fortunate that worked so hard to remain alive. He ignored her and gulped some spinach down with a mouthful of red wine.

•• Edmund Prym ••

"Morning Edmund"

There was always a certain routine in Edmund's life that he found, and still finds very boring and tiring. First, he would drink, and would try to get drunk after a good night's "feeding". Then, someone will call him to breakfast: be it Hubbard, his father, and on rare occasion, Steven. When Edmund is done playing with whoever was sent to call him (with the exception of his father, of course.) he will come down to the dining room where he is to sit at his favorite seat by the window. And lastly, he'd have to wait for his father and Carmilla to come down as well.

Uggh, Carmilla.

"Carmilla" he greeted gingerly as the name coated and dripping with utter disgust escaped his lips. Edmund hated his sister-- not in a normal, shallow way, but with a passion. She was the only one who could piss Edmund off just by breathing in the same room as he was. Being already the ultimate object of zealous hate, the way she was talking right now didn't do wonders to his mood.

Edmund rolled his eyes, "Oh Carmilla, if I were to explain to you in detail how my snack went last night, I might get arrested for severe verbal abuse to a little girl." He twirled the fork through his fingers casually, keeping his eyes pegged on Carmilla, "...and the shot glasses? If you're so worried about them, then maybe you should let me throw you instead next time--- that would surely lighten my mood a hundred times more than a mere shotglass." On a whim, he threw the fork he was playing with at the wall behind Carmilla; far enough to not hit her, and close enough to hear the audible "twang!" of the fork.

When their father had entered the room, he did not bother to retrieve his fork, and instead fixed himself on his chair. Images were very important for their father because he was a rich noble in Ravenheart. "Good morning father. I was just having a pleasant game of fork-darts with Carmilla. Care to join us?" Their father had no plans to fool around, so when the food was served, he dismissed Edmund's offer with a, "Eat, Edmund"

Edmund stared at the plate of food he was given, and made a face. He took a bite from the meat and the vegetables, then pushed his plate away, "I'm full. I'm done eating" he wiped his mouth with the table napkin, then finished his wine. He leaned on his hand, evidently bored, and scanned the room for something else to do. His gaze fell on Carmilla, and his abysmal eyes glinted with malice. "How do you fare, Carmilla? How was Steven? Is he man-of-my-dreams material? Is he as good as some of the maids here say? You know what I'm talking about Carmilla. Please do tell us of your many nightly "adventures" with Steven, assuming that you do have some, right?" an evil grin began to form across his handsome face.

It's payback time.

Victorique smirked, "How you wish for my innocence to be penetrated, brother? Do you will instinct upon my unpolluted youth? Why, then I'd become like you."
She gave a fleeting laugh that seemed to taunt even the air in the room. Their father heaved a heavy sigh.

"You two are impossible, to say the least - each defending pride and opinion. Is it necessary for such aggression?"

"My apologies, Father," she said, fetching the fork from the wall behind her. "Edmund seems rather perky in spirit tonight, so I'll give him that."
She launched the piece of cutlery in her brother's direction and it seared through the air like a dagger intending to kill. He caught it. She smiled at this.

"See, Father? We only intend to amuse one another. It's all sheer child's play," she reassured him. Victorique returned to her seat and finished her meal, sipping tempered red wine. She often ordered Steven to fix her wines with his blood. At first he was appalled by the idea, but he soon accepted his fate as her slave as well as the fact that he had no right to defy her will. He was fairly new still and she tried to be as gentle as she could allow herself, but the fact was that Victorique has an unpredictable character. Even the serenity that embraced her sometimes surprised her, yet she felt proud and satisfied that she could control her temper and present a straight face (or bemused, rather). She felt somewhat superior this way - as if she was immune to instincts and emotion that were commonly found among lesser races such as humans.

Their father seemed to be lost in the trail of thought. He furrowed his brow.
"What ails you, Father?" She stood behind his chair and lightly placed her hands on his shoulders.

"Politics," he said bluntly. Victorique cast a concerned glance towards Edmund, hoping that he would notice the aura that emitted from their father.

•• Edmund Prym ••

Edmund scoffed audibly, "Unpolluted youth? Surely you jest, sister? And if by some unknown miracle you do become like me, it would be the greatest thing to ever happen to your life, you mundane little she-devil." There is never a time when Victorique and Edmund would agree. It is almost amazing how they can always find something to argue about. Every morning is a different argument, every morning, their father would just sigh as he did right now.

"Why yes, father. Such is the life of a vampire noble in Ravenheart— an endless struggle to defend pride and opinion" He stared blankly at Victorique again; she was always such a kiss-up in Edmund's eyes. With a bored tone, he yet again rebutted his sister, "Perky spirit? I've never been perky my whole life! Sister, did you sleep properly?" He caught the flying fork when it was near enough, and then he glared at her for even attempting. His glare was soon replaced with a smug smirk, "You're a hundred centuries too early to be able to hit me, Victorique."

"Ah, yes, yes whatever. Though it would be much more interesting if someone actually got hurt...Now that would be amusing."

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Edmund hated having meals with them because it was always the same thing. He couldn't leave the table until their father was done, and Edmund never finished his meals; He always had a lot of time to waste while waiting for their father. He eyed one of the maids and winked at her suggestively. She was a new maid, and she looked younger than most of her colleagues. Edmund decided to keep himself busy with checking her out for the moment.

"Politics"

In Ravenheart, politics was always a very well-discussed, well-spread, and shady issue. Anyone who's anyone always knew what anyone important was doing. Having a political problem in the Prym household was not a rarity. Though, the aura around his father seemed like it wasn't anything shallow this time, and for once, he agreed with Victorique. He straightened himself on his chair and asked everyone in the room to go out, except for Victorique and their father. When the room was successfully emptied, Edmund leaned on the table with his elbows and looked at his father seriously,

"What is wrong, father? It seems serious this time."

Their father looked at him, openly confused about Edmund's sudden change of heart. Even though he knew the boy as a child, he did not expect him to notice the distress. Nevertheless, he couldn't share it with them.

"Do not fret yourself about your old man, my son," he smiled heartily at the both of them.
"Go about your things and be as ambitious as I have raised you to be, but be careful. Do not trust anyone but each other. You are all I have." He pulled Victorique and Edmund together in an awkward hug and then left the room.

Victorique coughed, straightening her dress. "I wonder what that was about," she stared on after their father.

•• Edmund Prym ••

Edmund looked at his father across the table seriously, almost uncharacteristically, as he awaited the real reason of his dark silence. He knew that he was never the kind of person to be overly-concerned about family matters, but something pulled at his heart when he saw his father like that." Was it worry?" He would wonder. If there was anything that Edmund never bothered to do more than "care", was to "worry". His father knew Edmund well, and reciprocated his worry with surprise and most probably shock. Yet, now wasn't really the time to care.

And he never cared.

His father wasn't too keen on spilling the beans, and dismissed the two siblings with an awkward, and an even more uncharacteristic hug. Edmund lightly but stiffly pushed his father and his sister away, also openly showing his personal disgust at the sudden intimacy. "Of course, father. ...Always." Edmund brushed down at his vest as his father silently walked away to be alone with his own thoughts, leaving his children with an increasing amount of unanswered questions. Edmund ignored Victorique's little question, and turned around with a flurry of his coat. "...I'm going to find out." he approached the door and grabbed his fedora from the hook and wore it on his head with a slight spin of his hand. Before he exited the door, he paused for a moment thinking if he could use Victorique this time. Victorique herself was brilliant, and Edmund thought about how she could be of any use to him this time. With a momentary pause, he turned back to Victorique and asked as civil-like as he could manage,

"...would you like to help me?"
