Devil in the details
Lucien had been up for the last few days. Since his samples had been ruined he’d had to use live subjects, pulling the blood from one directly into the other and then it was manual from there. Screams permeated the air in the room and surrounding area that he currently occupied. The wolf didn’t make it, but the dragon was holding on to life, if it could be called that. Time would tell if he’d have another powerful hybrid or the fruits of his labor would once again be unrealized.
The doctor had moved to his desk to document the steps he had taken and the different outcomes trying a theorized way this time around. If it worked it would give reason for retest as one experiment was never definitive and if Lucien was truly honest with himself he enjoyed it. Enjoyed inflicting pain on others and watching them suffer. He knew well the way of sedatives that would work on the supernatural and chose not to use them and, in fact, used items that would cause more harm at times. Especially with prisoners of war. Some of his experiments he went into knowing full well the outcome.
While taking notes he propped his head up with is other hand, elbow anchored to the desk. The pen slowing at times only to speed up when the doctor came back too. It was ridiculous a creature such as himself needed rest of a sorts still. Even he could only go so many days without sleep before his body demanded it. His head finally fell to the desk and he didn’t even feel it. Dead to the world for a time.
Lucien was usually a light sleeper, but as it was it took much longer for the vampire to stir in the least at the entrance of an intruder into his lab. The other giving much more time then he should to look around the place and Lucien’s things. The doctor did finally stir, silently raising his head to regard the back that faced him. The vampire was up and next to the other in an instant. “May I ask what it is you think you are doing?” Lucien’s tone empty as his features giving no clue as to what he was thinking of feeling in the moment.
