Vampire's Obsession
Prologue
Rose
Don’t you dare stop me.
unknown
Don’t you dare, Rose!
(His voice, sharp like steel.)
She gives him one last smile… and falls backward into the black sea.
Splash.
The water swallows her whole.
No struggle. No breath. Only silence.
Rose
**So cold…
So peaceful…
Death feels softer than life ever did.**
Memories flash—her little brother, the orphanage, her friends, her small town.
Everything fades into blur.
Rose
**I tried… I really did. But everyone breaks someday.
Death isn’t loss. I lost myself long ago.**
Rose
**Caspian… I’m coming to you.**
Her lungs burn.
Black spots dance.
Darkness kisses her shut.
unknown
???: Breathe, damn it!
(A harsh push on her chest. Saltwater erupts from her lips in violent coughs.)
Air rushes back. A brutal hug follows.
A body—cold, strong, crushing.
unknown
Don’t ever fucking do that again!
(His snarl vibrates against her skin.)
Her heart pounds. Fear coils like chains.
She knows this monster. She knows what comes next.
unknown
...I love you. For fuck’s sake, Rose—I love you!
Her world freezes.
Her soul numbs.
Darkness returns… this time, she doesn’t fight it.

The Tale of the DARK SOUL
Baltasar
Thousand winters ago, far across the vast ocean sailed a boy with glee. He was fifteen summers old. Born from a courtesan, raised in a brothel.
Caspian
Wait… born in a brothel?
Baltasar
Hush, boy. Listen! The day his mother died, he left that place behind. His love for the sea… he was the seed of a pirate.
Kids: (confused)Seed? What is a seed, Mr. Baltasar?
Baltasar
(frowning)It is nothing, little girl. And do not interrupt when I’m telling the tale.
Baltasar
The boy sailed for years across the seven seas. He learned all the ways of the ocean. Brave in battles, his name spread… and young lads joined him. Slowly, he became the notorious captain of the ship…
Caspian
(excited)What was his name?!
Baltasar
(sharp gaze)One more word from y’all and I go to bed!
Caspian
(silent, eyes wide)…
Baltasar
The ship… was called the DARK SOUL. It had… magical powers. None could fight him.
Baltasar
(smug smile)But… as power comes, so does evil. He lost the boy he was. Became cold, menacing… looting kingdoms. Unstoppable.
Baltasar
The kings made a truce. Called upon a witch for help. She agreed, Delighted, to end the captain of DARK SOUL.
Baltasar
The captain sailed across the Erythraean Sea… came across a malnourished woman on a timber plank. She begged for help… he laughed. Offered help that was death.
Baltasar
But the woman… in a blink, became a witch. She cursed the DARK SOUL…
Caspian
(shaking hands, panicked)No, Baltasar! Don’t curse us!
Small Girl: Yes! Don’t curse us. We don’t want to be monsters!
Baltasar
(snapping)You wanna listen to the story or not?!
Suddenly – High-pitched shriek
Baltasar
Run for your lives, little things!
Kids run, hiding behind trees and barrels
Enter Rose – redhead, emerald eyes blazing, furious
Baltasar
(standing, wooden foot creaking)Rest assured… I’m not taking more mead than given.
Baltasar
(grinning cheekily) You realized it today?
Rose
Were you feeding them myths?
Baltasar
Tales, my Rose. Just tales.
Rose
(whining like a child) Caspian will eat my head out with this new myth of yours!
Caspian
(horrified)I can’t eat your head, Rosi! I’m not a cannibal!
Rose
I’m closing the bar. Everyone to your beds!
Baltasar
(grumbling)Including me?
Rose
Yes, Including you Baltasar
Rose takes the mug of mead from Baltasar and headed towards the bar
Rose was an orphan and her parents died when she was eleven. Their boat drowned in the middle of the sea. The only family she had left was her brother Caspian, an 8-year-old little devil but she loves him with her life. Rose was 19 and she along with her brother stayed in Baltasar's orphanage along with other kids; in a beautiful town as Port was attached to it. Baltasar became her father figure, though he never showed it but he deeply cared for her a lot.
Maidens
Siya
Where did you go?
(She’s stacking chairs, tidying up.)
Getting inside the bar she was met with Siya, her co-worker who was putting the chairs on top of the table, and gathering things up.
Rose
(grabbing a cloth, wiping tables)
Baltasar was feeding the kids with his myths again. (sighs)
Siya
(frowns)You know those aren’t myths. My mom told me those same tales.
Rose
(shakes her head)I don’t believe in things I can’t see.
Siya
(smirks)Then what? You won’t believe men have a penis unless you see it yourself?
Rose
"SIYA!"😳
(Her face burns red. Wide eyes. Total scandal.)
Siya
(grinning wickedly)Just proving your theory, maiden. 🤪
Rose looks away, scrubbing harder at the table, cheeks flaming.
Siya
(lowering her voice, teasing)
Remember the guy from yesterday? The one staring at me nonstop? His name’s Bradley. I’m meeting him tonight. 😉
Rose
😧For Lord’s sake, Siya! You met him yesterday!
Siya
(shrugs, mischievous)
I’m not a Virgin Mary. I like… experiences. 😌
Siya glares, Rose grins, and within seconds—
Siya is chasing Rose across the bar, broom in hand.
Their laughter echoes in the empty space, filling it with warmth.
