The Vampire Lord's Blood Doll

**Sissy's POV**

I felt so uncomfortable, as if something heavy pressed down on my body. It was like an animal, like a dog that licked my neck. Its tongue was wet, and its breath on my skin felt hot. Strangely, I felt a hand moving downward on my body, caressing the way down, squeezing and nibbling in a sensual manner.

"Leave me alone. Go away now!" I panicked, and wanted to wake up immediately, but I couldn't move at all.

The uncomfortable feeling had changed, and I felt instead of some kind of animal, a person pressing me down. I felt the person biting my neck. It was somewhat painful, somewhat numb, as if he was sucking something. I felt my blood draining away.

I murmured in my dream, letting out a long "ah" while I tried to struggle, making the person stop sucking my blood, and let me go, but I couldn't move.

Finally, the pain eased, and I felt the hot breath from a distance. My body felt easier, feeling the pressure disappear. I tried to open my eyes, but my eyelids were too heavy to move. Eventually, I heard the door closing. My senses told me that I was alone in the room again, and I fell back into a drowsy sleep.

When I woke up again, I felt light-headed. I rubbed my forehead when I realised I was in the White Rose Manor again. I was in the room prepared for me.

What was going on? I questioned myself. Last night I paid for a room in a hotel, deciding not to come back here. How did I end up here again?

I quickly got up, then I ran to the mirror. I checked my neck. Two red marks stared back at me, but they looked like scratches by fingernails, not the result of a bite.

Was it a dream? A dream that felt so real.

While I stared at the mirror, I had another thought that made me uncomfortable again. I tried to recall the way I returned here, but I couldn't remember at all.

Could someone bring me back? Could William bring me back?

I felt uneasy to think of the possibility if he found me, and forced me to come back here.

Before I would have believed my stupid theory, I burst out laughing, then shook my head. Probably I was watching too many TV shows recently. How could such a bizarre thing happen to me?

After checking the time, I washed up and left, but I couldn't see William. Only Miley was sitting in the dining room, eating. When she saw me, she smiled.

"Sissy, come and have breakfast. There is cheesecake you like." She invited me happily.

I walked over, pulled out a chair, and after sitting down, I looked at the table full of food. It had so many varieties of delicious treats. Just a glance at it made me feel full.

"When did you get discharged? Why didn't you tell me? I could have picked you up." I asked her. Feeling disappointed she didn't let me know she would be back home yesterday, not letting me help her, I felt her secret return a little weird.

"I came back last night. The butler said you were asleep. Have you been very tired recently?"

I paused, looking up at her. "When did you come back last night?" I asked.

"Um... around eight o'clock. Why?"

What she said made me stunned. After I decided I didn't want to come back here, I only found a hotel to stay at eight last night. I remembered that clearly. The hotel wasn't too posh, but the room looked just okay for me to spend the night in there. I couldn't have been at home.

I felt a bit scared, not knowing what was going around, so I had to ask her further.

"Are you sure? I hadn't gone to bed by eight last night."

Miley looked puzzled. She seemed a bit dazed, and her reaction was a bit slow. At that moment, however, the butler came into the dining room with a toast, which he gently placed on the table. Like there wasn't enough food on it already. "Madam, you remembered it wrong. You suddenly came back home at twelve last night, by then you were already resting." He explained that, like I was a drinker, or a drug user who needed to be informed about the behaviour and things she did the previous day and night.

My gaze met his grey-blue eyes, which somewhat scared me. It was like he heard my disappointing words inside my head. Gathering courage, however, I asked him. "Do you remember when I came back?"

"You came back at ten o'clock, but..." It seemed like it was something he didn't want to share with me. That just made me more eager to know what had happened. "But what?" I asked him, impatiently waiting for his answer.

The butler looked me over, then he took his phone. He opened its screen and searched for something on it. He handed it to me, eventually.

"Your condition was a bit strange last night. Forgive me for only having a video as evidence."

It was the surveillance footage outside the manor. The time displayed was around then o'clock last night. I was dressed neatly, walked to the manor's gate, and like a ghost, continuously knocking on the door, and didn't say a word. It seemed so unbelievable I did such a thing without remembering.

Soon, the security inside the manor noticed me, and opened the door for me, allowing me to come inside. I pushed past the guard, entering the house like a ghost.

Miley watched the video next to me with widened eyes as well.

"Oh my, Sissy! What is wrong with you? Sleepwalking?" She was extremely surprised. "You didn't have this problem in college. Certainly, I would remember if you did." She added. Indeed, I didn't have these problems, not just in college, but never. I lived with Eric for ten years, and even if our relationship wasn't the best, he would have let me know if he noticed there was something wrong with me while sleeping. I was astonished I had sleepwalking tendencies.
