The hidden truth 4

Crashing against the wall and landing on the ground with a loud thud sound, General Perez fell unconscious and his comrades just looked in disbelief at smiling Christopher, who was standing in the doorway.

He then walked in, put Vicki on the ground, looked at the two hunters, and said "Gentlemen,... Shall we?" as the two light hunters prepared their weapons and launched themself at Christopher with excellent speed, wanting to cut off his head with their swords covered in weird light.

The time around Christopher slowed as he easily dodged the two hunter's swords and with his bare hands, he took their heads and smashed them against each other, making them explode under that pressure.

Then the time 'sped up' again and two headless bodies smashed against the door behind Christopher as his face was now covered with their blood.

He then looked to his right and saw Rose starting to wake up again so he walked to her and kneeled beside her, taking her head and placing her on his thighs.

Opening her eyes, Rose saw the bloody face of Christopher, smiling at her and saying "Good morning sunshine, are you alright honey?"

She felt sweet inside when she heard his kind tone and the way he called her, but then a worried expression appeared on her face so she looked around and saw Vicki still unconscious lying on the ground near her, two headless corpses of the light hunters and general Perez unconscious lying few steps away, behind the couch.

With disbelief she looked back at Christopher, asking "Y-you did this?" as he nodded, replied "Yes honey, it was me. I'm Busted!" and then smiled again.

Again, a feeling of love flew towards her heart when she heard that word so she just closed her eyes and rested, knowing she was safe while chuckling inside.

Christopher started caressing her hair as a small smile appeared on her face.

After a few minutes of resting and caressing, she got from Christopher, her eyes opened as she sat and placed her hand on Christopher's cheek.

"I wanted to do this for so long," said Rose as Christopher (Ardelean) responded "What do you mean?" getting an interesting answer "This" as she kissed him.

Ardelean, after a long time finally felt that sensation of kissing again and not only once but numerous times as he thought 'Well Christopher, I came here with only one purpose.'

'I just wanted to know how are the girls that I saved twelve years ago and then leave and waste this night somewhere else like always.'

'I knew they were stalking you all the time because of what I had done in the past. The effect of the Butterfly wings hahaha!' he chuckled internally.

'But now I decided that you need to leave your past and forget about that girl. She's not who she used to be and making contact with her could be dangerous...'

'So, I'll make you marry these girls instead hehe. All three of them at the same time, so congratulations! You'll become a grown man!'

While Ardelean who was in control over Christopher's body was kissing Rose and thought about his plans, General Perez and Vicki were starting to gain their consciousness.

Christopher and Rose stopped their kissing session when they felt, they were no longer 'alone'.

Rose was looking at Vicki and Christopher was watching Perez as they stood up and Christopher said "Rose, take Vicki and go to the bar where Claudia is waiting, leave this place and wait for me somewhere" but when Rose heard that she whispered something to Christopher and he nodded.

Then she took Vicki and walked away, leaving Christopher and Perez alone in the office.

The men faced each other with a around three meters gap, their auras clashed and the ground under them shattered.

"How long has it been Ardelean? Thirty, forty years?'' said Perez as he walked towards Christopher with slow steps.

"Something like that," said Ardelean as he started walking too.

After a few steps, they stopped in front of each other, looking straight into the eyes of each other.

[... In the meantime, Claudia felt that Rose was calling her through their connection, so she walked towards the stairs and then on the second floor ...]

Arriving there, she saw Rose covered in blood and Vicki in bad condition so she ran towards them as they placed Vicki on the floor.

"Why is she healing so slowly" asked Claudia as Rose was just shaking her head, replaying "I don't know, I'm completely fine"

And then *BOOOM *BOOOOOOOM *BOOOOOOOOOOM was heard as they saw Christopher walking with Perez, covered in blood and wounds, unconscious again.

"We should take him for answers" as he took something from Perez's pocket and threw it to Claudia saying "Give it to Vicki honey, she is poisoned"

[... After a few minutes, the antidote started working and Vicki was like new ...]

"Thank you, Christopher, you saved us again" thanked Vicki as she walked to him and kissed him.

The battle between tongues started again and when they pulled away, it was 3:0 for Christopher!

And suddenly, Claudia stood up from the ground and threw herself in Christopher's arms as she kissed him too but Christopher won again.

!!! 4:0 !!!

Rose then remembered a ritual they wanted to do, so the girls took Christopher to another secret room.

Unlocking the door next to the portrait of Vicki's father, there was a staircase leading to a room, where on the ground was engraved a big bloody rune.

"It's a rune for blood rituals, exclusively made for vampires by witches," said Rose as she walked towards some ingredients that were lying on the altar in the middle.

"Are you sure about this? I mean we love you but do YOU love us?" said Claudia with little hesitation so Christopher picked her up like a princess and kissed her again.

They kissed for a few seconds and then Christopher pulled away, saying "Yes, and I knew that you, Rose, and Vicki were stalking me for twelve long years too..."

She blushed a little, thinking 'How?' but ignoring that now, she went help to her future sisters.

'Well Christopher, you are going to be the husband of three beautiful vampire beauties! I'm a little jealous of you my man but, you are the strongest host I ever had so I should spoil you a little hahaha...'

'You don't deserve to be depressed about your past anymore. Just forget her and enjoy the silent call of the bright future.' thought Christopher (Ardelean) and walked to the girls.

Claudia, Rose, and Vicki craved the blood rune into Christophers' chest with a ritual knife and then everyone cut themselves and filled six little bowls with their blood.

Christopher was filling three and each 'sister' was filling one.

Then girls took their three bowls and mixed their blood while they recited a spell as a rune on Christopher's chest and the ground started glowing with red light.

After the spell, Christopher drank that mixed blood, and his new wives drank his blood from the other three separate bowls.

After finishing the blood, they became married, and only each other's blood would satisfy their thirst.

Christopher then fell unconscious because of the ritual and the girls took him home.

[... Christopher's soul ...]

"That's how it ends, now you know everything," said Adelean as he looked at Christopher adding "You should forget that girl... even if you have hope, she is lost over six years. I don't think she is going to appear anytime soon."

"Now you have three beautiful wives so protect them, love them, and don't make the same mistake that I did.''

Christopher walked closer to Ardelean asking "What happened?" Ardelean replied "Maybe, someday, I tell you... but not today. Now, I said I'm going to upgrade you right?" and started walking towards a big circle on the ground in the distance.

Christopher's smile only grew and grew as Ardelean's did the same.

Arriving in front of the circle, Ardelean took a big book and threw it at Christopher.

"Here is everything I learned when I was fighting in a war against the light," he said and took another book but with hesitation. After thinking for a few seconds, he put her back with a thought 'He is not ready yet.'

Listing through the book, Christopher saw defensive skills and attacks, protection tactics and fighting tactics, offensive skills and attacks, and other things.

For start, he chose to better understand his teleportation powers and possessions of someone.

Another thing he wanted to learn was to control his tentacles and learn some killing fatalities and moves.

Host and 'parasite' became student and teacher and Christopher was thankful for what Ardelean did for him.

He felt like he gained a new best bad friend, and found something he missed all his life.

'Well my life changed fast' Christopher thought as he listened through the book while Ardelean was lost in thoughts.

Levitating behind Christopher he thought 'Can he be the one we are looking for... or is he just like the others before him?

But then he shook his head 'It's too soon to say that but... for now, he is on the right way to win, I feel it' as he smiled a little because thanks to Christopher, he felt like a teacher again as he remembered a memory from his past, a memory from his life as a human...

[... The Bathory residence ...]

Christopher was walking towards Lazarus, changing his swords back to the appearance of pistols, playing with the triggers as he whistled melodies of famous songs.

For everyone present, he looked like an angel of death going to do his daily routine.

The tentacles were enjoying Christopher's whistles, moving their heads up and down in the rhythms of his whistles while Lazarus was trembling under the sigh of his doom.

But then extremely bright light destroyed the darkness barrier he formed before the fight, making the tentacles on Christopher's back hide inside him.

From that light fell a beautiful woman in an white ancient dress with big black wings as she threw a light spear toward Christopher.

["STAY AWAY FROM THE LIGHT AND IT'S WEAPONS HOST!"] warned Ardelean as Christopher easily dodged the spear looking at it as it flew around him in slow motion.

He turned back and saw the woman picking up Lazarus, wanting to flee.

"Where do you think you two are going?" I said as the two snake-head tentacles flew towards the woman, burning a little on the bright light.

The woman spun in the air, cutting one of my tentacle's heads with a sword of pure light that formed in her hand as she said "I should kill you Darkness host but it would be a waste. RIGHT ARDELEAN?"

But suddenly feeling an intense piercing pain in her leg, she looked down seeing my other tentacle biting her.

She screamed in pain "Ahh you piece of shit, how dare you touch me with this filthy thing!" as a bright light suddenly flew from her hand towards me.

I turned for a few seconds but when I looked back at the spot where the woman was, she was not there anymore, and Lazarus left too.

I looked at the mansion in flames thinking 'What was that?' as I heard *COUGH *COUGH ["She was someone from the past. Sorry I need rest because of that attack, We talk later."]

'What attack?' I asked as I looked down and saw twenty black feathers pricked in my chest.

I pulled out one after another and I started healing and as if by magic, my suit 'healed' from the damage too.

["They did nothing to you but for me they are deadly. Because you are not strong enough."] said Ardelean.

'Okay, say if you need something' I said with my inner voice, hearing ["Heh, I will, Christopher"] as I turned around and started walking towards the black limousine with a smile caused by Ardelean's response.

It was the first time since he truly spoke my name, but before I dived in t too deeply, I felt two objects at high speed approaching me.

Understanding what was going to happen, I let myself be 'shot' by these two flying rockets.

When the explosion happened and dust settled down, I was lying on the ground and the only thing visible on my chest was a white and black head sniffing and rubbing against me.

"DARLING! We were so worried that you died!" screamed the two at the same time as my hands started stroking their heads.

"Don't worry my dears, I'm fine but we need to help Rose, her mansion is destroyed after all" I said as I stood up and patted my white suit from the dust.

"We can go to my house where we can finally rest together and talk about this mess you became part of," said Vicki as we started walking towards her limousine.

And then *BOOOOOOM was heard as another explosion happened and when the dust settled down again, Rose was all over me sniffing and rubbing like Vicki and Claudia before her while I was pinned down on the ground.

'Haaah, here we go again... haha' I chuckled in my mind.

"Darling, darling darling~ I was so worried. I'm sorry for what happened" she said in a sad tone as I stroked her head saying "It's not your fault that this happened. They were planning this like in Atlas"

Then I looked to the left where was Lazarus' sword, lying on the ground.

["We can use that *COUGH"] I heard so I picked it up and let Ardelean hide it in the darkness.

Picking Rose up like a princess, I said with a mischievous smile "I'm starting to be hungry again" as my eyes changed to crimson red making the girls shudder and cling themselves to my arms and neck.

As we walked towards Vicki's black limousine, the only three things on my mind were the scent, lips, and blood of my wives, little rest from this mess, and thoughts about that famous night club named Atlas, owned by the Phoenix family, where my life changed forever...
