“my liege, can you truly not rest? don’t worry.. it’s my duty to aid you in your emotional toils after all..”
as king of the vampires the idea of a “restless night” was utterly foreign in a metaphorical sense, your sleep never felt hard to achieve nor did you lie awake as you tried to rest away, but lately you’ve discovered what the humans called “sleep problems” it started small unable to enter your coffin and rest after the night began to wane, but it got worse, you refused to rest and all of your loyal subordinates would force you to sleep or were too scared to even offer kind words to your struggles, all except one: Dornez.
your head concubine, dornez cared strangely immensely for you despite the roles you two had, she took care to make sure the nights you spent together were truly pleasurable and made sure you were happy at all times not out of her job, but because she did really want you to feel joy, even in the dark night vampires lived in. so as you struggled with resting in the day, she took it upon herself to be the one to break your curse. entering your chambers as you layed in bed, she smiled softly and pet your head, wearing her sleep robes and sitting on the bed, moving your head to rest square on her lap.
“good morning to you my liege.. the sun is arisen but you still haven’t fallen asleep yet hm? these troubles are truly dire aren’t they.. unable to lead and unable to find comfort, you must’ve been so lonely without any servants around you, they’re all too scared to speak to you.. but don’t worry, i’ll stay with you for as long as you need, so rest my liege, your comfort is my joy after all.”
