The Vampire Princess Saga Box Set (25 page)

Chapter 23

A few meters from the front porch.

Eros appeared in front of me. He fell to the ground, bent. He was in the correct posture soon after.

“
You again!” I said severe. “You promised me you would not come after me.”

“What is Bizak doing here?
” he asked serious.

“Ask him that.
” I said.

“
I'm not kidding, Valkyrie.”

“I don't know regarding life of Bizak.”

“You two are very close”, he affirmed, in fury.

“
Are you watching me?” I asked, looking into his eyes.

“
No”, he answered.

“How do you know we are so ...
‘close’?” I insisted.

“
I am a vampire ...did you forget it?”

“No.”

“Unfortunately ...you and I have a strong bond. There are certain things that happen to you that I see while you're away”, he confessed.

“
I feel it, too”, I completed.

We were silent.

Meanwhile, images of Rock and roll show night came at my mind, where I saw Christian being dragged fiercely for Eros. He strongly held the boy's neck with his hands and then he strangled him.

“
You killed Christian!” I said, after having visions.

“Only now did you see that?”

“Why did you kill him? I saw you did not drink his blood!” I asked, confused.

“I would never drink the blood of that idiot!”

“You killed him to stay with Mirta ...Now I understand ...” I said, convicted.

“
Wrong!” he said and turned his back to me. “He awakened in me hatred ...Because he persecuted me all the time in school. I would not let a guy like this alive and crosses my way sometimes.”

“
You did this to get closer to Mirta!” I stated full of anger.

“
You're a monster!” I said, in aloud voice

“What about you
? Not?” he smiled slightly. “I know you killed her admirer into the classroom ...Douglas!” he said, satisfied.

“I did not kill him because I wanted to ...I could not control my blood lust.”

“Which difference does it make now? He’s dead.”

”Taking life for you it is so normal!
” I got goose bumps with his coldness.

“You should already have become accustomed ...Vampires are not nice!”

“I try to be different from our species!”

“You do not seem to be the daughter of the master.
” he looked at me with disgust. “You not deserve to be the princess of the vampires.”

Eros became smoke and disappeared in
to the air.

Chapter 24

All years are accomplished a party in school, to celebrate the arrival of winter.

The party was organized in the school yard.

They made a bonfire into the center of the courtyard.

All round, various bamboos was stuck in the ground with colored flags, hanging up.

Half a dozen stalls selling drinks, snacks and sweets.

The party was crowded, many students were present.

There was a small stage in the middle of the festival.

A rock band animated the environment.

I was accompanied by Bizak to the party.

He was the only friend I could tell at that moment.

I wore a black dress with detailed low neck and little lace on dress's skirt. I put on black gloves to hide my pale fingers.

Bizak put pants and dark shirt.

We stayed away from people. But we could see every move into the party.

Bizak rubbed his fingers and a black rose appeared in
to the air. He took the flower and put into my hair.

“
This will match your dress”, he said as he fitted the ornament on my head.

I thanked him with a smile.

“You're beautiful!” he said staring at my face.

I turned my gaze to the side and saw Eros coming to the party and
 Mirta was with him.

Other
twinge of jealousy arose within me, it was inevitable for me I don't feel it.

Eros and
Mirta looked at me and Bizak.

Mirta
should be thankful that I was accompanied by Bizak at the party.

I held the cold hand of the vampire.

“Let's get outta here!” I pulled Bizak without giving him the right choice.

We went to a location further from everyone; I didn't want to continue seeing Eros beside
Mirta.

The escape would be the best solution to my anxious heart.

“The party is not pleasing you”, Bizak said staring at my melancholy face.

“
I should not have come to this party”, I confessed, unhappily.

“
As always ...’Eros’, he said enragement. “He ruins everything!”

“
He is not the problems...and yes ... myself”, I said as I looked at the floor. “I’m an idiot for liking him” I confessed, subsequently.

“
I warned you that he would torment you.”

“
I did not expect he could do this to me ... he being involved with Mirta, she was my only friend.”

“
Eros is capable of doing terrible things! You must to be very careful with him.”

“
He cannot against me; I'm further stronger than him.”

“
He is more cunning than you and that's a powerful weapon”, Bizak held my face. “Although you are our princess, but you are still naive. You didn’t learn to be a vampire entirely.”

He bowed his head, he had intended to kiss my lips, but I backed off, preventing him to kiss me.

Chapter 25

Bizak was a spin on the party; I stayed in the same place, away from everyone.

I looked at the bonfire in the middle of the courtyard, the fire was friendly.

I raised my arms and energy came from my hands. They were against the fire.

The fire increased, reached two meters in height.

Then there was an explosion.

Everyone ran out of the party.

They were desperate about the catastrophe.

Bizak to see desperate people, running down a dark street, he went behind them.

It was a great time
in favor of his hunt.

He came in front of two girls.

“Are you afraid?” he said walking towards the two girls.

“
Who are you?” one girl asked, very scared.

“I just want show you two something”, he said and his face was transfigured, became the supernatural face.

The two girls screamed to see gray eyes and long tooth of the vampire Bizak.

They tried to run and Bizak prevented them with his power. They were neutralized.

He introduced his teeth into the neck of every girl, one at a time.

The taste of fresh blood left him smiling.

***

I stood in front of the bonfire, the fire was gone.

No one was in place, besides me.

Eros came on the spot and saw a girl, her back to him, standing in front of the bonfire with a black dress. He knew he'd meet me there.

Eros approached me and looked at the ashes on the floor.

“
You caused all this”, he said.

“
I destroyed the party” I said and my eyes were angry.

“
Why did you do it?” he asked.

“
It was because of you”, I stared at him. “I cannot stand it!”

“
What?” He asked, furrowing his brow.

”Seeing you next to
Mirta.”

“Why do you sustain it? I do not want your love!
” his voice was aggressive.

“
So how you cannot love me, I also cannot forget you”, I confessed, perplexed.

“You should forget me...your love just makes me ill”
, he said.

“
What can I do?”

“Forget that I exist!
” he ordered.

“
You can prevent a love story with me, but you cannot stop I love you”, my voice sounded rude.

“
Valkyrie, understand...” his voice was delicate though he was a vampire.

“I will not understand”, I screamed, muffling his voice.

“Your love is prejudicial for me”, he spoke quietly.

“Eros I need you”, I held his arm. “You are the love of my existence.”

He shook his head negatively.

All I said, it made no one sense to him.

“
I love you!” I insisted, staring into his fascinating eyes.

Mirta arrived at the place. She did not like what she saw.

Me and Eros, near the bonfire.

“Eros!” she screamed. “I was looking for you.”

Eros turned away from me and went on next to my rival.

“What are you doing here?” she asked him.

“Let’s go away!
” he ordered.

They both left the scene, embraced.

I remained motionless. I did not want to see the two together.

Eros looked back and saw me in the same position.

I was stagnant by the cowardice of losing him to
Mirta.

Chapter 26

I was standing, on highest point of a rock, an unknown place to me. Well near at the gloomy sky, a light reflected on my face, the full moon's light.

Bats flew over my head, from side to side, in a practiced dance.

My dress wanted to unfasten from my body, and follow the accelerating breeze.

An owl flew into the air and came against me.

It rested on my palm.

I was admiring it for a long time.

I brought it next to my face.

My lips found the owl.

It was submerged by a supernatural energy and it got into the human form.

I kissed own frigid lips of the vampire Eros.

My body was displayed by a stunning effect.

I wished that time could not finish.

That could be eternal.

***

Opening my eyes, I saw that I had dreamed, I wanted to be asleep into that dream forever, everything seemed so real.

The kiss ... The sensations ... I had never felt before.

And maybe I would not feel them in the real world.
