--------------------------------

I had read about this in history I think. a long time ago. Ancient... castles. . Middle aged.. and the languages.. It was as if I was in the movie The other Boleyn girl with Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson. It was scary, but yet exciting and terrifying at the same time. 

I entered the chamber as the staff called it and it was huge, big beds with a heavenly like ceiling for the bed, Seems like it was a bit more modern and that Jae had it remodeled a bit to fit the 21st century but at the same time there was a slight touch between the ancient and the modern time. I looked around to see flowers everwyerhe, huge windows with several feet of curtains. I walked over to the balcony and opened the doors as thousands of scents hit me instantly. The sound and scents from the forrest and I was in awe while looking outside. I knew instantly that this was going to be my favourite place. It was magical. All of it. THe sun was shining 

"Milady, have you settled in yet?"

I turned around to meet Jae's beautiful smile

"Milady... it sounds so weird to me.. I don't know if I will ever get used to it" I chuckled

"Well you better since it is something that all the staff calls us here. Milady and My lord"

"But how come you didn't tell me about this place?"

He shrugged as he walked over and looked at the beatuiful scenery in front of us

"Some stuff are just better to show than to tell anyone about"

"You're right about that" I said in agreement

He turned to me and took a hold of my hand and sighed

"I know it has been hard for you for some time.. But I want to warn you.. with this vampire life it comes with many memories. Especially from the past, things you might don't want to remember" He said

"I know.. Yoochun told me"

"Yes and .. I know it might be hard to prepare oneself for it but just keep that in mind okay? Just that you somehow are prepared. The memories are there.. hiding somewhere inside that pretty little head of yours" He said

I nodded

"Thank you Jae" I mumbled and hugged him

He hugged me for a long time and at first he didn't even let me go. It was as if he was afraid

"We will make the most of the time here but there will be some training. You won't learn it all at once but if you can give it some time I'm sure it will be good in the end" He said after letting me go

"So is there anything else in this huge castle that we can go explore?"

"Well.. there is a dungeon, the ballroom, dining hall and kitchen"

I gasped

"Were you a prince before becoming a vampire?"

"No.. my... ancestors were... very rich. My ancestors belongs to the nobilities a long time ago.. And I inherited this..So I guess it's not a bad thing right?"

"It's amazing.. that means you're of noble blood as well"

He chuckled and shook his head

"Not really.. but I have learned a lot as the time as passed..Come on.. I will give you a tour. Would you like to change clothes first?"

I quickly changed into a dress and Jaejoong laughed at my silliness. We went outside our chamber and wandered the long hallway that had open windows with bright colors and candles lit everywhere. Statues and art was hung against the wall and I couldn't help but admire as I walked. But then I had to stop myself. I saw someone looking almost like Jaejoong. I stared at it for a moment before I gasped

"This.. painting.. it looks exactly like you" I said and stared at JaeJoong. He shrugged in response

"Once every century, someone is born looking exactly like you I was told when I was younger. He was apparently my greatgreatgreatgreatgreat.. .. I don't know how many greatgreat but either way he is a relative and we do look exactly like each other"

"Oh that is Lord Youngwon" I turned to the right to see Josef standing beside us

"Very noble and a gentleman I must say. He was awfully much like you My lord. It's as if I'm serving him when My lord is here" Josef said and looked at me

"How long have you lived JOsef?" I said suspiciously 

Josef and JaeJoong laughed

"Awfully long Milady. I was turned many years ago by a lord I cannot recall. And yet here I am, once again as a butler. I love this beautiful job and it's always been an honor to serve under this household" Josef said

"But doesn't that mean that you were turned under Jaejoong's ancestors?" I asked and looked at Jae

"That still remains as a mystery since that is a black hole in my memory. A witch once told me far long ago that it is something that I cannot regain since that memory was locked and taken away by another witch" He said

"That is so sad"

"Yes but here he is.. and he has served under us for many years since one of my ancestors brought him here" JaeJoong said

"JaeJae"

I reacted on the voice who I couldn't recognize. I spun around to see a beautiful woman approach. I gasped as I could see the similar mouth and eyes that Jae has

"Greatgreat Nan" He said shockingly

"JaeJae, now have you not grown" She said and kissed both of his cheeks

JaeJoong chuckled and I just stood there, freezed

"Milady" Josef bowed

"Is.. who.." The so called Great great Nan said and smiled at JaeJoong while he scratched the back of his head

"Nan, this is Yumi, the girl I told you about"

"The newly transitioned vampire?" She asked and smiled at me

I stared at her

"My dear, don't look so shocked. I'm of JaeJoongs ancestors, I'm a little more than 700 years old so just call me Nan alright?"

I stared at her with an O shaped mouth

"NAN!!!" Changmin screamed

"Changmin my little boy" Nan greeted happily

I stared at JaeJoong who smiled at me

"Look I know it's a lot to take in but bare with me okay? She is wonderful, She entered my life not too long ago. I didn't know she existed until I started to resesarch about my ancestors" Jae said

"But I thought you were alone?" I said

As Changmin and nan continued chatting me and Jae started to walk away from there

"I was.. or at least that was what I thought until I found her. I didn't know I had any relatives alive since you.. I was a vampire and turned by a girl I thought I loved and when I was about 388 years old, I started to research with the guys since there was so much I didn't know about my family and when we had been reasearching allover and ended up here, You could say I was more than surprised.. I am still surprised today" JaeJoong said

"But I thought you guys were all alone" I said

"We are.. No matter how many friends.. and relatives you have.. You're still alone. You don't know how long they are gonna stay and you don't know if there is a chance you might lose them" Jae said and took my hand

"I know you said that the vampire life is a very lonely life but.."

Jae looked up at me and moved my hair out of my face as he looked into my eyes

"It is lonely.. but I guess what I meant with loneliness was.. you.. want to find someone who you can spend your life with" He said and caressed my cheek

I felt a big warm feeling inside of my chest

"I was depressed and lonely, heart broken and sacrificed everything for something that I believed in which turned out to be.. a lie" He said

I swallowed hard

"But I don't feel lonely anymore" He smiled
