Saoirse's POV
It's been two days since I rescued him. I'm sure someone's looking for him either his family or the people who want him dead.
Judging by what I have witnessed those who attacked him wanted him dead. 'Cause if by any chance my idiotic self did not interfere he may be dead by now or will be put into a deep slumber for years just because of the amount of the poison in his blood.
Things have been difficult these days. Sneaking medicinal plants without people around me noticing.
Also, my mother and father left for an unknown reason, they are gone for almost 2 days now, yet sneaking is still difficult due to the eyes of Harrison. Knowing my guardians left me to his care. He was so keen on my activities like where am I going or what so ever and I always ended up ignoring him like I always do to avoid suspicions.
He's been unconscious since the day I brought him to my treehouse seems like the poison used on him caused severe damage to his system and in his blood, his heart; what a vampire should it does not beat at all.
Normally Vampires can withstand an arrow wound or even bullet wounds but after I examine his wound with the arrow there was an unknown substance mixed at the tip of the arrow it's like what professional hunters do to their prey.
It is a poison even myself is unknown. I extracted the blood that I could extract in his abdomen to get out the poisonous substance inside of him but the more the poison reduced inside his body the difficult it is for me because his regeneration is becoming much faster each time the poison would leave his body.
The substance is like a weak version of mercury substance that makes vampires weak and unable to regenerate.
I know how mercury works cause I have been raised by books. Mercury is a new substance discovered by humans they use it for protection to other supernatural beings especially for vampires since Mercury is a substance that contains silver.
But since it's a new discovery the one who owns it are wealthy humans. It isn't known to the public.
This information where at my guardian's memos which is from an unknown person and that is obviously prohibited for my knowledge but my thirst for knowledge is much greater so, of course, I make ways.
In addition to that, written there were captured lowly vampires, does who live among human territories that are used as the test subjects. That's just so cruel, 'cause some vampires just want to live on their own far from being a vampire and I am well aware of vampires who don't need human blood to survive but Humans take precautions.
As the memo described the mercury substance is a liquid silver-like substance. But from what I've seen the substance in his body is far from being mercury.
The guy has been having the switch in consciousness, one second he's moaning like he is about to wake up, so I never let my guard down when I hear it and once silence takes over he'll go to deep slumber, again.
For those two days, he's getting better compared to the state he's in before. He's paler due to extracting blood but other than that he seems like recovering.
I have been on guard ever since I saw how fast his generating is. I've been wearing my cloak for a long time and seems like today is like the other day that he won't be waking up.
I finished putting some medicinal plants to his wound with my enchantments which I'm not sure if it's effective cause I haven't mend any vampires in the past it's always I mend myself or my parents and no one else.
I have finished yet I'm still dazed by his appearance. His thick long lashes, his dark, thick brows that furrow from time to time. His perfect nosed paired with his Chiseled jaws that have been flexing each time. And his lips... his skin may be paler but his lips remain bloody rosy color.
I was pulled to reality when he moaned again like having his nightmare and afterward, silence.
As I stood up after finishing plastering his wound with clean cloths, his wound was still open cause his abdomen part is where the poison accumulated and I haven't and wasn't able to extract all of it so his generation was mending but it's still having a hard time healing the arrow wound, which is still a mystery for me.
I took off my cloak and put it in the chair near the bed and started to clean the things I used.
But upon cleaning the side bed a hand suddenly gripped me and I felt a pair of eyes were gazing at me sharply.
Just by the glare he gave I'll be dropped dead. I looked at him in my side-eye and I saw the bloodshot eyes flickering to their original color which is gold and red. Shows that he hasn't still recovered yet.
Knowing that and unconsciously I reacted out of instinct I forcibly grab his hand to lose the grip and I might broke his hand but I don't give a fuck about that right now escaping here is what's more important.
As soon as I was able to free myself from his grip. I'm about to run down but then I realized I am not wearing my cloak. I want to go back and grab my cloak but if I would he'll see me twice! And my life will be fucked so I chose to leave my cloak and just run.
I broke my spell with just a second as soon as I reached the ground and all I did was run and run until I can see our house came into my vision.
The darkness has taken over the surroundings so I'm sure no one saw me run with my speed and he didn't noticed me too, not with his state.
I was still trying my best to make my heart rate to normal phase before walking into the house. "Where have you been, Saoirse?" Then a voice appear at my back and questioned that made me flinch.
Due to my focus on making myself calm, I was not able to feel the presence of Harrison behind me, or did he already mastered cloaking his presence?
"I was running around, which is none of your business" I answered.
"Saoirse you know what your parent's rule, be home before dark." He blab but I didn't bother to throw a glance at him and walked without looking back and went inside the cabin.
As soon as I reached my room, I flopped on my bed and stared at the ceiling followed by my continuously sighing.
I want to castrate myself for putting me in such a situation.
How could I jeopardize my life for that unknown person whom I didn't even know in the first place?
What even bothers me is I can imagine myself bemused by his beauty.
DAMN.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, SAOIRSE...?"
