8 Can I change now?

"What???.... What did you say?", Lord Valdimir stupefiedly. I nodded liably. A minute of silence prevailed. While Lord Raphael broke silence with his loud and bouncy voice saying "Seriously Elly? I never knew my little sister will be this awesome!.." before he could finish Lady Rachael stomped on his feet while glaring at him.

She said, "Only I will call her Elly, you better find your own Nick name!" Lord Raphael sticked his tongue out making her angry. Lady Rachael took a deep breath then faced me with an excited face and shooted questions. "So Elly, Is it a he or she? Where did you meet the spirit? Did you give anything in return? How was the seal done anything adult happened?"

When she asked her last question she winked at me while Lord Valdimir emitted a cold glare towards her. But she was never bothered by it she kept looking at my face excitedly. Then Lord Valdimir and Lord Raphael in turn faced my way. Lord Valdimir's face turned into a father whose daughter got married and leaving him, I felt a bit amused by his sudden change of expressions.

I chuckled and said, "Slow down Rachael, let me answer you one by one. First it is a he then he appeared in my dreams. He said we are connected through our mind. My soul went to his village, actually he didn't ask me anything in return. He simply asked me to give him name and a kiss to seal the contract."

When I mentioned kiss I saw Lord Valdimir's eyes widened in anger. He really is overprotective towards his daughter ah? Lady Rachael asked disappointedly, "Only a kiss ah! I expected a lot! Really he didn't ask you anything in return? That's surprising! Then can you summon him I want to take look at the guy!"

I replied her that, "I still don't know how to summon him yet and further details I will ask him tonight and tomorrow I will summon. Is it alright?"

"Its ok Elly. Then change in to your costume. Ah.. before that fed on us", Lady Rachael said causally. Why this people never understand think it's not alright to drink blood. Oh god! how am I gonna explain this to them! "Do I really have to?", I tried to use my puppy eyes trick. Lord Valdimir face softened, while the others also felt pity. That's when he arrived in with a cold and stern face!!!

"Bro! Smile atleast once a day!", Lord Raphael said looking at his stern face. He simply gave him a chill glare while looking into him he suddenly turned towards....

"Elizabeth you definitely have to drink blood, otherwise forget about getting out of this room ever. Even though you are a trained soldier, you still have no control over your abilities now. No other explanations or conversations you will drink now", as Lord Charles ended his words, I tied my tongue.

I nodded, it looks like he read Lord Raphael's mind. There is nothing I can do now, he is someone whom I can't fight with anyway. Lord Raphael came near me and sat at the edge of the bed. He gave me a cheerful smile indicating that I can go on. I nervously took his left hand rolling his full sleeve, then took a deep breath. I could feel everyone's eyes upon me, slowly I sunk my teeth into his hands.

That was the last thing I remember. I was intoxicated by the sweet aroma and the taste of blood. Even though Lord Valdimir's blood was even more tempting, the feeling was comparatively not bad. I felt his heart beat slow down that is when I came to my sense and stopped. When I saw him, Lord Raphael became pale. I felt horrible at that site yet he simply smiled at me.

Lady Rachael handed me a tissue to wipe my mouth. When I touched her hand, a vision came to me. The vision was in a hospital room when I went in hurriedly I saw her holding a baby girl in her hand. She smiled and told "There! there! look at your aunty Elly!" Thats when Raphael went near her and kissed her in her lips!! That was the thing that shocked me most. I replayed the vision again! When I looked at it clearly they both had the same rings.

Oh! my! God! Aren't they brother and sister moreover they are of same blood and even twins! It's not like I oppose them, anyone can love anyone still! I tried to not show it in my face. That is when I understood something. "Can I change my dress now?", I asked them with a expressionless face.

"Are you alright? Is it enough with your thirst? If you want you can still have Rachael's blood", Lord Valdimir asked me with a concerned look. I thought to myself 'definitely not!' then I opened my mouth, "Yes father, I'm not hungry I'm totally fine, if I need anything I will surely ask it", I finished my sentence with a big smile.

Then Lord Valdimir gave me a big smile in return. Lord Charles helped Lord Raphael to move and they went out probably to rest. While Lord Valdimir followed them, giving us girls some space. Lady Rachael Bounced and took out the dress she had brought with her.

She started saying, "I hope it's up to your liking Elly, when you were unconscious during your transformation period I took your measurements and I bought these. At home I have stocked your wardrobe. Your bra size, hip size, height everything is matched."

I smiled at her and took the dress on my hands. It a sky blue one piece evening gown with pink coloured floral patterns. Although it don't fit my image as a captain still any girl would love to wear this dress. I kept thinking while staring at the dress. I was stunned when I had that vision. I was thinking of a way to frame the sentence. When I lifted my gaze and looked at the girl she smiled at me.

I can never hurt this gentle and good natured girl in front of my eyes. "(Cough) (cough)... Rachael?", I asked her hesitantly. She replied with a smile, "Yes, elly." I frowned pinching between the space between my eyebrows and asked bluntly, "By any chance, Are you Pregnant?....."
