Her incissors glittered pearlescent in the candle light.   \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcI really, really want a sunflower,\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 she chirped, lisping slightly.  <\/p>\n<p>The master-vampire glowered at the men responsible for the child-vampire&#8217;s existence. \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcAnd this,\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 he pontificated, \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcis exactly why we DO NOT turn children. They \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 develop strange needs.\u00e2\u20ac\u2122  <\/p>\n<p>The men shrugged. \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcWe get that \u00e2\u20ac\u201c now,\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 the smaller one said at last. \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcBut, master, where ever shall we get a sunflower? We are creatures of the night!\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 <\/p>\n<p> The master-vampire glared. The men ducked. The little girl grinned.  <\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcI shall \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 take care of that,\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 the master vampire announced.  <\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcThank you, master, oh thank you!\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 The two vampires nearly fell over each other trying to kiss their master&#8217;s hands.  <\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcI&#8217;m hungry,\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 piped up the girl. \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcCan we have kitten now?\u00e2\u20ac\u2122  <\/p>\n<p>The vampires winced and quickly dragged the girl away, before the master vampire would get truly angry. <\/p>\n<p> The master-vampire waited impatiently until they were far enough away so they could not see, hear, smell, or feel where he would go. He knew exactly where he could get sunflowers, even though it was past midnight and December. But it was a secret that no other vampire must ever find out.  <\/p>\n<p>Because it simply wouldn&#8217;t do for the members of his clan to discover that the master-vampire was friends with a very female, very human, and very much alive botanist because he was so very fond of orchids.<\/p>\n<p><br class=\"spacer_\" \/><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Song of the day:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 430px; text-align: center;\">\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"426\" height=\"327\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"flashvars\" value=\"env=embed&amp;widget=19f4af0465ccc1f233ebf67d11f16b83&amp;playlist=578693d92c6165f2e548825ab10f0fca&amp;vuid=embed\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.mixwit.com\/flash\/widgets\/shell.swf\" \/><param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"426\" height=\"327\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mixwit.com\/flash\/widgets\/shell.swf\" wmode=\"transparent\" flashvars=\"env=embed&amp;widget=19f4af0465ccc1f233ebf67d11f16b83&amp;playlist=578693d92c6165f2e548825ab10f0fca&amp;vuid=embed\"><\/embed><\/object><br \/>\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.mixwit.com\/m.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mixwit.com\/?e\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"visibility: hidden; width: 0px; height: 0px; display: none;\" src=\"http:\/\/counters.gigya.com\/wildfire\/IMP\/CXNID=2000002.0NXC\/bT*xJmx*PTEyMjgyMjM1Nzg3NTAmcHQ9MTIyODIyMzU5OTc1MCZwPTE4NDMzMSZkPSZnPTEmdD*mbz*1ZTlkZGE2YzI2MDg*OTU2YWE2NzYyMzBiNzAxNjU2NQ==.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"0\" height=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Link(s) of the day:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a title=\"offsite link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.vampire.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Vampire Vineyards<\/a> | <a title=\"offsite link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.emmadavies.net\/vampire\/\" target=\"_blank\">Vampire Name Generator<\/a> | <a title=\"offsite link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.countbachula.com\/blog\/home\/\" target=\"_blank\">Count Bachula<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><strong>&#8230;and my wish for you today is:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Allow yourself to need.
