Young Dracula: Part 5

By MICHAEL LAWRENCE

He missed having a real enemy. He missed being young and fit enough to go out for a neck or two of human blood when the fancy took him. There wasn't even anyone to talk to now. No-one that mattered anyway. It was no use talking to Wilfred. They had nothing in common, nothing at all.

'Are you all right, Father?"

The Count jumped. He hadn't heard Wilfred come up the stairs. "Oh, it's you," he snapped. "What do you want?"

Wilfred was worried about the old vampire. He was a kind and sensitive lad.

"I was wondering if you'd like a bowl of toad and tomato soup, Father."
