“I forbid it!” she said firmly. Immediately the
"boy" went forth with his paper lantern, repeating a cry as he ran—warning to
clear the way. Only one thing emerged with
any reasonable clarity in her mind at once, and that was that unless she was
saved from drowning by an unmarried man, in which case the ceremony is
unavoidable, or totally destitute of under-clothing, and so driven to get a
trousseau, in which hardship a trousseau would certainly be “ripping,” marriage
was an experience to be strenuously evaded. Gerald closed the door and released Melusine, and then went to open the
shutters on a window that faced the side of the house. He warned her that it drove
most men mad and that the process for choosing another
to become a vampire was lengthy and protracted with
good reason. Nevertheless, she could not prevent a rising excitement as the dawn of the
new life drew near to her—a thrilling of the nerves, a secret and delicious
exaltation above the common circumstances of existence. "The plot's out!" cried Jack. This was not exactly what the woollen-draper
desired.
