He visited me again, I had already felt him before he stood at my window. I could feel him reach out to me, it was all so intense, but I couldn't expose myself to him, it wasn't possible. I thirsted for blood, this need added up more the hour. Everything about me ached, I became weaker, I could no longer. My breath was coming in short bursts, my heart was tightening, I needed blood, I wanted blood. I saw him as a small figure, waiting for him to open, for me to invite him in, but I could not. Powerlessly I pulled myself to the window, I had to tell him to stay away from me. My hands slid along the slide, I had no strength left to open the door. He had bent down to me and put his hand where mine had stopped. "I can't...", I whispered out of breath. Open up, I can help you," his voice was like a balm for my soul. I grabbed the handle and pushed it down. He stepped in and lifted me up, as soon as his body touched mine I became more relaxed, he was healing me somehow. I was placed on the bed, his fingers stroked through my hair and lingered on my cheek. I smelled his scent, it was different from humans, I noticed my mouth open and my teeth bared again. He wasn't surprised, or scared, on the contrary, he bent down to me and gave me his neck. I bit into it and sucked. I saw everything spinning around me, I was no longer aware of anything. More, I wanted more. Then he pushed me gently into the bed and kissed me on the mouth too, I tasted blood and wasn't sure if it was mine or his. Then he wiped the thread of blood from my lips. It's almost time Dinora, soon you'll be mine," he whispered and I could see pointed canines too. He was like me, heaven he was like me. He bit my hand and a hissing and burning went through my body, I didn't want him to stop. What are you?" I asked him, all misty-eyed. I am a creature of the night, Dinora," he stopped saying and looked at me, his eyes were shining, they were so attractive. You're a vampire, aren't you, you bit me, now I'm going to be one too, is that right?" At that moment I didn't realise the danger and the powers I was playing with. I was befuddled by the poison, or agent, he was giving me. His smile twisted into a grin: "I must say, you have combined well." He continued his lips to my neck and bit into it as well, another gush of utter befuddlement. Would I die here? I no longer asked myself such questions. Everything was as fresh as snow, I was in pain, but it was bearable. He let go of my neck and wiped the remaining blood off with his shirt sleeve. I gasped and tried to get away from him as the rush wore off. I looked at myself in the mirror, I was corpse-blasted, I looked like a corpse too. What had I done. I ran my hands through my hair and got a headache. I slowly came to my senses: "What have you done to me!" My tears were closer and closer to my eyes: "I am a monster now." I tussled my hair in despair: "I can't go on living my life like this, I have obligations, I...can't attend my sister's wedding or go out into the garden to read. I kill people!" I stood up and looked at myself in the mirror, and what about Alex? I saw a vase, it was stocked with fraises, I hated those flowers. Without thinking too much I threw the flowers out onto the carpet and emptied the water over my head, I wanted to wash myself clean of his blood, I spotted pink stains. Then, with all my might, I threw the vase in his direction. It shattered above my bed. You took everything from me,' I shouted at him before I fell asleep crying. "Now don't go crying around here Di, basically you always knew what you were." I looked up. "Didn't you ever wonder why you weren't afraid of the dark or why you hated garlic? You've been a vampire all along, you just needed to turn whole." And you had the right to help yourself?" I asked him ironically. "All it took was a little poison to activate your genes." I didn't believe a word he said and tried to put as much distance between us as possible: "Liar!" No, I'm not lying, Di, you're a vampire just like your mother," his voice was so serious and clear that I was scared. "No, that can't be," I breathed softly. Still, it would explain a lot why she hardly ever ate, why she was so thin. She hadn't wanted to tell me anything about her past either, perhaps because it was a bloody one. I didn't want to and couldn't believe it. But... how can that be, it's not possible,' I stammered. She never told your father, she had her teeth filed. She got used to the sunlight very slowly so that she could go outside. Leaving our clan had been one of the stupidest decisions she could have made, just because she had found the love of her life. But she had to make a deal, the daughter who is not married or even engaged by the time she is 19 has to marry the son of our king. You are my bride Di, I am your soul mate."
The End...well for now
