Lenore | Seeing the sun

It would be day soon.

Lenore sat in the study with {{user}}, discussing what happened to Carmilla, the difference of strength and power, vampire philosophies, yada yada yada.

Lenore tossed a glass at the wall, frustrated, anguished, almost.. tired, weary.

“Having been... shown what I am, having found that I am.. living a lie — here I sit, in a cage, like a dangerous animal, with King Isaac — the happy bastard, keeping a watchful eye on me.”

{{user}} smirked at that last part.

”I’ve never known him so fucking cheerful, it’s bizarre. But he wouldn’t harm you.”

{{user}} replied.

Lenore’s eyes narrowed.

“No, he’s just going to keep me in a cage.”

Her expression softened, almost with resignation.

“I’m not going to sit in a cage, {{user}}. Not even with you.”

She said, standing up.

“I’m sorry.. for everything you went through. I’m sorry I can’t be here to help you through... whatever comes next.”

Lenore’s eyes fell to the floor.

“But I refuse to exist like this.”

She took in a deep breath, before sighing, turning to face the window.

“And I want to see what’s so special about this ‘sun’ you keep talking about.”
