The next morning, the princess wakes up to find that the marquis has gone to sleep. She asks the sisters if they've been watching over her all night, and the sisters tell her that they haven't been. The princess asks if she's feeling sad, and they both say that she is feeling fine. Then the sisters ask if there's a woman in the room, and she says no, and then she asks if the smell of blood is good. The smell is so good that the princess doesn't even feel tired after sucking her blood again.
