CHAPTER FOURTEEN

The sun peeked over the horizon when we finally stopped outside a quaint little cottage nestled in an awe inspiring grove of fruit trees. I wondered if I would ever stop marveling over the breathtaking beauty of the land. Luthias and Geo both spoke of Verso being like earth was prior to the war and the twentieth century pollution modern man created. Although I was saddened that I was born in a time of devastation, desolation, and the dominance of evil, I felt even sorrier for them. How horrible it must be to watch your world turn into a decrepit shell of what it was. I wondered why they’d ever step outside of Verso.

A slight and somewhat wiry, gray haired woman meandered out onto the porch to greet us. Even at that early hour her hair was pulled back in a smooth bun upon her head and her slacks and blouse were neatly pressed. I thought of the stark contrast she made against my grandmother, who would have greeted us with long gray hair in disarray and an old robe covering her nightgown at such an early hour.

“Greetings milords, what brings ye to my humble home on such a fine morning?” she called out as we neared her.

“Ah, good Gwendoline, ye are a sight for these poor eyes,” Geo drawled with the same speech pattern as the old woman.

“How old did you say you were?” I whispered.

“Ye ask me this now, fair lass?” he said with a slight chuckle and a twinkle in his eye.

Geo’s obvious pleasure in seeing Gwendoline and his jovial response to my question made me curious who this woman was and what role she’d played in his life over the years.

“Is she a vampire?” I asked Luthias as I watched Geo hurry forth and hug the woman energetically.

“She’s the only one living in Verso who is not,” he replied.

“She’s human?” I asked.

“She’s a magical human,” Luthias replied.

“A witch?” I gasped.

He nodded, but said nothing.

“She’s the one you said lived in the rooms we escaped from,” I mused.

He nodded once more, but still said nothing.

“I didn’t know they were real,” I said softly.

“Now that’s humorous,” Luthias said with a smile. “You believe vampires and mutants can exist, but not a magical human?”

“I didn’t know vampires of any kind were real until Geo introduced me to Sybil,” I said defensively, “and mutants are a result of nuclear genetic altering.”

“So your first introduction to vampires was in the mutant-vampire den?” Luthias said more than asked.

“Technically, it was on the road near my home when I met Geo,” I corrected him. “Although I didn’t know he was a vampire until I was stolen from my creepy vampire husband.”

“Charles is creepy?” he chortled.

“I stand corrected.... evil. I should have said evil,” I said.

“I can’t argue with you on that,” Luthias said.

“What are you two so engrossed in conversation over that you can’t be polite enough to greet Gwendoline properly?” Geo chastised teasingly.

I rushed forward and extended my hand in greeting. Gwendoline raised a brow in surprise, but eventually took my hand and weakly shook it.
