Chapter 8 - Disguising as Humans

I embraced him so tight that made me hear his bones crack. "Oh! Seems like the years taught you to be tough, your Highness". His manner to me still never change. I feel I've found my long-lost other side of myself. Everyone knows before how close we are, yet we just let it be that way. What they see is what really means, no more no more less. "I'm not really mistaken. You are really here! I found you here". He finger-comb my hair while I don't want to let go on his arms". "Oh... it seems like you miss me so much", though I really know she's stronger than me, yet I'm kind of missing the way she is to me before. I wish this kind of moment would last forever. "Can you two just try to let go now? Because you two looks you're both suffocated. Not even an air can enter", Clara's raised an eyebrow feeling when she noticed we look like a broken piece finally been fixed. Hansel suddenly let go and notice Clara can talk. "It talks? Who is -----?", Hansel got into confusion and I notice he never remembers he meet her before.

I let Clara comes close to us for her to introduce herself. "I am Clara, her half-soul wolf. And you are Hansel her vampire guardian, right?". I've never remembered Chiara had a half-soul wolf before. The way she brings in herself sounds like she's more familiar with the Highness. I try to compose myself the way she's into me but I can't help myself to ask why she existed from the very start. She is the most powerful Queen we have had and will forever remain and how come a half-soul wolf exist? As I try to look into her, she is not a harm for us. "I am Hansel and yes I am". She looks on me closely that makes me to turn around. "I see and ….", trying to get my attention and she said in a gentle way, "Don't ever underestimate me". The way she told me about that makes me feel she is more than a wolf. I notice Hansel become discomfort that I approach her and say, "Geez! Can you just be good to him? Remember you're still under my provisional guidance". I let Clara step back on Hansel to make him feel she's not a harm to him. I wanted to ask more Hansel why he didn't show up on me for over the 65 years (after the 390 years ago blood war), yet he look on his timer giving me a hint he's into something. "Your Highness can you wait me here? I don't know if how long will the meeting gets over but I see to it that it will not take more than 1 hour. Besides, this is just a contract paper signing to testify the admins of this institute is in agree for a new handler". When he told me about, I got to realize it was him who Mr. Cruise told about. But a new owner? Who is this man would be? I set aside my fog questions on the air as I let Hansel handled it first while telling him we'll wait him later here in the lobby.

... "I think it's a better way to show myself. It's perhaps my time now. Let it be in a bit by bits pieces. Especially the unknown rival plays love and lie. Just because he is the other half, yet he would never be the whole. I will take what's mine. I am looking for an on turn twinkling flash before the throne comes to an end. It's close down more to the Black Blood Moon to comes. She might think it's upon on 500th but it's not. I may have the biggest mistakes, yet I would never regret what I had done. It was the better way for everyone's safety. Forgive me my, Lady… forgive me my love… I am here now to rescue you. I don't know if this will work out, but I believe in us. I believe of the strong love we had and forever we will have. I am here for you now. I come back for you. You are my feet behind this thorny ground. It's your love for me that I adore you more than a word could say". I started my engine to drive the road that will guide me to The Gallery Show while trying to comfort myself to the song, "Longtemps" by Amir. I am now known as the President of the well-known perfume brand company named, "CLuna". I can easily get out now after the Super Moon happened. I don't know why Lady Amelia can dare to do it for the sake of her love to him. I can never forgive her but she succeeds in doing the darkest fate of my life. But I won't let that happen on her part. They will be going to face me first before they can even touch an inch of her hair. I don't know if she can perceive me but what I am really sure to do is make her convince to work on my office. My only idea about her for now is she had a relation with that educational company. I wish I'm going to see her soon. But I got less of my power as of now. I am still in need of recovery. Wait me love for I am closer to you… sooner you'll be in my arms... I was so close in the company that made my body quiver for a while – that gives me a little less help to speak up on her. I stop my car in the nearby parking lot, some feet away from The Gallery Show. I was about to get out when I sense a strong aura sensation. "I guess it's a best way to happen. Let his vampire guardian come first on the line…"

Just as he promised, he came back just in time. I notice his face glow in the light when he walks near to me while Clara is strolling in the little garden looking for those bees that sips some nutrients to the flowers and do some pollination on it. "You're ready now to go, your Highness?", saying that to her as I look for the key of my car in the pocket of my pants. I got confused to his question. "Why? Where are we going anyway?". "Well I let you show my place where I live, your Highness". Clara comes close to us when she noticed Hansel is beside me. She waits for my answer but she decided to wait for me inside our pick-up truck. I agree on him and he get in to his car to start its engine. I am excited to hear his story but I don't know why I feel Hansel keep a secret on me, something he hides for a reason. "Be careful who you trusted". I heard Clara talking on me as I look on her through the driver's mirror. "I know…but we'll see. Maybe we will know it piece by piece". I turn the engine of my car as I drive next to Hansel. We passed by the main city drive road and I notice we crossed the bridge headed to another city. When we read the sign, it is named Zhifah city – known for their famous Ferris wheel attraction that is an eye-catching view during the nights where if you are on its highest peak, you can see the ocean of Andrea's bioluminescent effect. As I saw my watch, it's 2 hours away from my home. To our surprise, we stop in the well-known hotel Chandeloue. We park on the hotel's ground floor where Hansel lead us to the elevator. Hansel press the button of the 18th floor. He adjusted his neck tie for a moment and say to me, "Maybe you wondered why I wasn't able to find you. Honestly, I want to live my life away from we were before. I know this is unfair to your part. But ….", I try to tell her my reasons but I don't know how to start because I feel the guilt deep within my heart. I was there on her side but I let it still be happened. I became so coward and useless to protect her. What I did is unforgivable. What I did is deeply wrong. What I did is unbearable. But how would I tell her? How would I say to her that I fight over to Amelia's evil plan?

She wasn't anymore alive. I put her to death. I made her suffer. I try to clear my throat and face her, "But I hope you will hear first my explanation to you, your Highness", tears fall down in my eyes unnoticeably. The elevator stops and it automatically open to give sign to the 18th floor. I was confused to his small details of revelation. I notice Clara step her self to him, grinding her teeth. "You, ruthless guardian!". But I hold her tail, never to allow her get closer to him. I didn't say a word to him instead, I eyed him to guide us to his room. He steps out on the elevator and he opened the room 1005, the 5th room from the elevator. He opened his room using his card key. "Be at home, your Highness". Clara steps first to his room and I seconded her motion. He switch on his room and I notice it is spacious for a single person living there. "Does your room look like this?", I ask him when I notice it looks more of a stock room. He chuckled and say, "You will never see what you really want to see if you won't use your eyes". When I got into realization, I opened my fiery eyes and everything is obvious on me now. "Brilliant idea, guardian". I smile on him and look on him with doubts saying, "I want to know your reasons, Hansel". When he saw that Clara is roaming around his room, he told me to take my seat first and he start to begin his story...
