the person walked by the door slowly passing listening when they were gone he mumbled into my hand so I took it away his heart was pounding hard and he was short fr breath
"can we go now?" I smiled nodding
'where do we go eli' I started using our mind connection
'well...' he was thinking of my parents portrayed the one in there room I sighed and nodded holding my hand out for him he slid his into mine I put him on my back and started to there room the room was beautifully decorated and the queen was sleep in the bed the king in his study down the hall Eli went to the picture thinking of taking it apart I practically screamed in his mind
' ELI DON'T!!!' and he jumped across the room almost it was a little funny he looked at me he could see my pain in him taking it apart he took 2 big bounds across the room to me sealing his arms around me in a soothing way he's a full 4 inches taller then me and I'm tall it wasn't fair he can't hear me unless I mean for him to I heard his every thought he kept so cleverly on the task... and how I looked I hugged him back trying to keep my feelings in I'm the freaking killer fr peat sakes I had no emotion or I didn't a few weeks ago
' plz don't hurt the painting its one of the only things left' he smiled going back to the painting he took it down taking it apart carefully looking between it and the map
***2hr later***
I was bored by then and I had someone down the hall
"Eli someone's Coming" he looked up then quickly put the painting back together putting it up by this time the person was at the door so I graved Eli and ran to a secret passageway closing it when on the other side jest as the king opened the door
"that was close" Eli whispered in my ear sending a shiver down my spine
' mmm why does he do that to me?' I asked myself he laughed
' shit I sent that to him!' I kept running keeping my mind blank when we were to town I set him down
***
the morning was cloudy but me and Eli walked around town I showed him more places in the town a little more in detail on what went on and what family use to own it and if they still did it soon cleared up and was a beautiful day it was around noon went to a cute little restaurant so he could eat
"Evelyn aren't you going to eat? I looked at him shaking my head and sent him my thoughts saying
' I'm a vampire Eli I don't eat' and he blushed looking at his food oh he's so cute I then brought Heinz to the church and cemetery he jest followed me I showed him the church first and all the pretty things in it then went out back to the cemetery I walked to Antonio's grave once I saw his name there I fell to the grown in a daze I was right between his and my son Anton's grave i'd not been here since the death on my kids id been so devastated that's what started the rippers rain on the earth Eli could see the pain I was feeling so he stood back for the longest time while I finally let myself morn them for a while I had venom spilling from my eyes jest staring at their graves id once slowed myself to look at my daughter Christina's grave but It had gotten worse so I chose not to do so for the time being
" where's your grave?" he asked quietly I jest pointed to the other side of Antonio's grave wiping away the venom going to sit between my children's graves like I had when they died it was a hard day the reason I'm like this that day kept replaying in my head and I had silent tears rolling down my face
"how did you die?" he asked me looking at my grave which read

" I made them think i'd died when a horse got spooked and rolled over me but the funny thing is... i'd been rolled over a few times before that" I shook my head he looked at me stunned
" oh wow well that's... wow um well... how Did they die?" he asked me motioning to my kids and I froze as the tears started to roll again he saw that I was upsetted by that so he changed the subject
"ok um... it's getting late i think we should go" i nodded and put a flower on all three of their graves kissing the top as if i was kissing their heads.
" i have to go get something i'll be at the boat in 5 minutes it won't take me long... there's something i want to get befor i leave this place' i said as he looked at me skeptically but nodded walking back to the boat i waited till he was gone then i headed to my meadow the one so long forgotten it was still so beautiful and my tree was still there i went straight to it i could barlly make out me and antonios names in it
***Flashback***
~age 15 (had been married for a year)~
"antonio i love you" i said leaning on him as we sat in our favorite tree in our meadow
"as i love you princess' he smiled kissing my head pulling me on his lap
" antonio i have something to tell you" i said with a shy smile he jest looked at me confused waiting for me to go on so i did
" well i believe i am to be pregnant" i said that and he instantly wrapped me up in his arms kissing me very pasionately i kissed him back just as fiercely i loved this man and nothing will ever change this fact
"oh my dear i love you so much you have made me the happiest man alive you have given he the honor of being a father i promise i will always love for and cherish you all" he said in his thick accent i was so relieved that he wanted this we had been trying for this for so long i hadn't told him till i was positive i'd been pregnant because i didn't want to get his hopes up
he then carved a heart into our tree and i put the names in it it wasn't a very intricate design but it was ours a symbol of us and our love
***end flashback***
i stood there for a little then bent down digging till i hit it it was my box i pulled it out and unwrapped the torn and dirty fabric to reveal the jewel encrusted gold box antonio had gotten me for my coronation so i'd have a beautiful box to put my crown in i opened it and smiled at it id loved this thing so much and now that i have come back i wanted it back i stood up and ran back i was there in no less than a minute and went straight to his room eli was already asleep so i put the box down and went to sit by him as we took sail not a second later wow i was lucky id made it in time
***
the next week passed and i got even more and more thirsty being around a lot of humans all the time one day i was sitting at his desk and oped to stay there all day so when eli came back he sat down and looked at me
"whats front evelyn?" he asked with a worried tone i looked up at him he was so sweet
"there is nothing the matter eli" he looked away and thought
' i bet she's thirsty and doesn't want to tell me' i looked down again of Coerce hed get it right on his first guess he knew me well
"of coerce in thirsty eli i am always thirsty around u bloody humans... no pun intended" i paused for a moment
"but i haven't hunted in weeks and it's killing me so i opd to stay here today" he looked really worried now and he walked out and was gone for a total of 10 minutes and 36 seconds and said wed dock in half an hour i nodded, when it was time he looked at me asking if he could come with me and i gritted my teeth saying no to him hr could hear the fierce tone to my voice and recoiled a bit and nodded whispering
" i'm sorry lyn i didn't want to upset you" jest then my eyes lightened and i kissed his head resisting to bite him
"it's alright eli just don't ask again alright when your-" i cut my sentence off there and looked down what was i saying i was not turning him i had no right to do that i didn't even know if that's what he wanted he jest stared at me
"when i what? when i turn.. is that what u were gonna say" he looked at me with a serious look i nodded slightly
" i didn't mean to it slipped i hadn't even thought of doing it i didn't even know if you'd want it"
"what if i do lyn?' he asked me and i looked at him stunned he wanted to i searched his thoughts and it was all on me and us forever but part was on his diseases that could kill him any day and he worried i stepped back and nodded walking off the boat to hunt
***
when i cane back we sailed off my eyes were now a bright crimson red (blood red) and i was full id eaten more than necessary but i wanted to be sure i could do this i then went back to Eli's room and sat by him smiling he wanted to be with me and he wanted it forever but wasn't sure of vampirism and if he wanted that or not i was alittle worried but it was his choice i'd come to accept the fact that i was falling for him and i wanted to embrace it so that night i kissed him and he kissed back i was smiling all night as i lay with him as he slept he talked in his sleep and i chuckled at some of it if i concentrated i could almost see his dreams but not quite
***
it was midday and as usual i was in she shadows as he talked to another in a room about plans and the course they would take we heard commotion then someone ran in and told him someone was trying to board us they all ran out and i followed not to worried about it but what i saw was surprising there was a full on fight on deck with a mas walking across the plank between us what was surprising was that the man he was a vampire
the man he was a vampire he was tall well built and handsome as most of the vampire men were I gasp following his line of sight he was looking directly at Eli
"NO!" I scream and everyone stops parting our crew and his gaping at me elks crew hadn't known I wa there on well to late now
" ANYONE THAT IS NOT OF THIS BOATS CREW..." I look around flashing ferttle eyes at everyone
" GET THE HELL OFF MY BOAT!!" I finish and they smarter running for the safety of their own boat going under the deck
" and my crew go under deck to your cotters and stay there or die" I say calmer, kinder they comply not saying anything about it not being my boat or they not being my crew I then ran vampire speed to Eli positioned between him and the threat the vampire
" who are you" I hiss through my teeth
" and what the hell do you want with us?" I day louder frightening Eli his thoughts were on me and how I was at the moment I frightened him I felt guilt but pushed it aside
" well I want him of course miss and might I say it;s a honor to be in Such a role modles presence... how you kill all of those h-" I hiss loudly cutting him off Eli didn't head to hear about her she was my past I didn't need to explain her to him but now he's curious and wants to know why I got defencive
" usted no lo consigue no vas a encontrar a nadie else" (you won't get him you won't get anyone else) [a/n idk if thats correct but I think so...] I say in my native tongue, Spanish then I lunge at him I pushed Eli behind a barrel for protection just before
he shaped I hissed we fought going to fast for a human to make out I was a animal I craved the kill I was the killer again I hued elks worry and when I was distracted he plunged a holy water doped sword threw me I scream threw my teeth laying down trying to pull it out then I see Eli he ran to the vampire attacking him and I rip it out of me with a moan it's so painful I look over and he's about to bite Eli I jump and knock him away leaving Eli laying unconscious on the deck I badly herd his heart I stabbed the pirate vampire once, twice, three times and he then takes it staging me then jumped to his boat telling them to leave I pull it out with a cry of pain then run to him his eyes are dazed
"Evelyn?" he says weakly I smile and nod checking for a bite there is none but jest then he coughs the kind that brings blood he had been staged threw the abdomen to losing blood fast I think quick looking at him knowing he doesn't REALLY want it but I bite his neck once on each side then his arms I then pick him up just as he starts to scream but stops himself instead moaning in pain I bring him to his room changing his clothing careful not to see TO MUCH then go chance myself before I go down to the frightened crew
"hes fine...there ton let's keep moving we still have places to be in a few days I will come back to you and tell you to dock in the nearest port the decontrol in command is in charge unless I say differently any disobeying the orders is death this is the most important thing you'll ever do one wrong move... we all die" I say we only to show them I mean no harm
" and just because I am a women doesn't mean I can't beat your asses or kill you so I expect you do as I say Eli" I pretend cough
" I mean eglesias is weak now so do not disturb him" I finish and they stare one even is brave enough to talk
" what could a girl do to trained men I mean you look like you've never known physical exertion" he said with a smirk I fun just a little faster than man and grip his arm tight he wince and I tighten my grip till he's yelling I pull him to the front of everyone
" I say not to defy me and I mean it" I say smoothly taking a gun as I past someone I put him down and there's a bruise where I held
" stand women" I say and he does scowling at me
" shoot the bottle off that barrel at the end of the room and I will forgive you" he looks terrified but doesn't so I yell
"NOW!" and he takes ame shooting he almost missed one half inch and I coulda killed him but he shoots it foul liquid falling to the floor, alcohol I smell whiskey I nod at him walking out and everyone's hearts settle they start talking but get to work all about the mysterious woman and her strength I go to Eli he's in pain so I shut the door sitting on the bed after taking the clock off I sit for 3 days on the last his heart slows and he is silent
thump thump... thump thump... thump the last thump of his heft and he's a vampire now paler then usual I stand on the other side of the room watching then he opens his eyes...
