The Diary of Lord Kellington (17)
Being that I am a philosophical being. I find myself pondering many unique thoughts,
as I sit and stare off at the night time sky.
Earlier, I dined upon a sweet, young flower seller, down at the Square. She wore a
shawl about her shoulders ,that were stooping too soon on someone so young. As
though the weight of all her thoughts, rested upon her delicate shoulders. Well, she
has no need to worry now. After I sampled her blood, I slipped a thousand Pounds
into her skirt pocket. It always does good for a shepard to tend his flock.
Ah yes! Pondering thoughts.
I wonder what would happen, if were to awake to be mortal once more?
What if I were to conceive an allergy to blood?
Maybe I should allow myself to fancy myself in love and marry?
What if I were to enter a church in all my monstrous glory? What fun!
Or, what if I was no longer welcomed by Polite Society?
What if my tailor quit!?
Or say, if I were to reach out to you, the reader of my night time missives, right now.
Grab you 'bout the throat and drink deep? Ha!
But, what nonsense I ponder and write of.
For I will always be welcomed among Polite Society. I am far too charming not to be.
My tailor, although routinely vexed with me for the late night hours I employ his
services, would never quit me. I pay his exorbinate fees without qualms.
The rest of my meanderings. Ha! I fear not a one.
But, the mere thought of Crystal having kittens herself....GADS!
