" i prinkípissá mou,its time " Those deep baritone voice brought me out of my trance,I stared deeply in his gray eyes. I can see the anticipation and worries etch on it. This made me feel a bit better at least I know he's worried about me not only for the sake of not dying or because after this he can walk freely on the broad daylight.
At least he care.
I gave Theo a nod head letting him know that I am ready.
I walk, closing the distance between us.
I raised my hand to caress his face and gave him a bitter smile.
" So long my friend. " I patted his face gently before glancing over his shoulder.
I saw Martha and Petula both with teary eyes holding each other's arm while looking at us.
I gave them a re-assuring smile.
But deep down in my heart, it's screaming and aching for I will sacrifice my own love and my most treasured memories for others.
The Vampire society that never treated me with fairness because I am not like them, in their eyes I am an abnormal breed of our kind.
Such a bitter faith to be chosen to be the one redeeming them from extinction.
I closed my eyes trying to ease my mind and heart.
This is for my love once,
and I promised I will never stop until I regained back my lost memories.
My mind can be erase of any knowledge of my beloved Dalton but I'm sure this thing won't make my heart forget whom it's belong.
" Martha " I called out.
" Please guide me when I can no longer remember Dalton. " I said to her, voice lace with sadness and pain.
" I will, I promise you. " Martha couldn't hold back her tears and start crying on Petula's shoulder.
When I glance back to Theo's face he looked deadly serious.
I sigh.
If there's a Goddess of Faith or Destiny I wanted to asked them why must this thing happen to me?
Of all the mortal and immortal in this world why did they choose me?
There goes my bittersweet smile again. There's no use in asking because what is meant to be has to be.
There's no coincidence in this world everything is predestined.
Ok Maricella this is it.
"This could sting a little"I crack a joke but Theo didn't buy it.
"Are you sure on this Maricella? Maybe we can still find another solution to my problem. " Theo look hesitant. If this question is thrown at me a few days before this thing is set to happen I will gladly back out and say goodbye to everyone but I feel like I owe him for creating us.
For without him there's no vampire and if there's no vampires there's no Maricella in this world.
My parents will never meet each other and I will never be able to feel such pure love from my husband, Dalton.
My brows furrowed as I messed Theo silky smooth hair.
If others will see us they will probably lost consciousness for my bold action.
But I am beyond the rules set for Royalties and how they should be treated.
Beside i'm the cure.
I nod my head on both side and force a smile on my face.
" I made up my mind and I'm ready" I stared at him for a brief moment before i tiptoe and I felt his hand rest on both side of my waist to support my balance.
I reach his shoulder ,my elongated fangs sank on those two pulsating blood vessel.
There I go, I finally put my marks on my creator.
The mating bond was so strong that I felt his century old power flowing in every veins in my body.
I saw his old life flashing back on my head.
A memory before he become the first immortal in the world.
He was so happy surrounded by nature and animals.
He was a harmless peaceful men back then.
Royalty run in his blood ever since before.
He did not just become a King because his the first vampire but he really was a Prince back then.
But things go wrong when his father and Mother,find out about what he did.
In medieval time it is a big crime to be more than you could ever be.
To dream of immortality means you are against the believer of God's.
To Theo's family who strongly believe in Gods, what he did is a very inhuman crime punishable by death in fire.
He was hunted by his own people,the once adoration in all those aristocratic young woman was replaced with fear.
All of those he love,
feared him.
All those animals he take good care off was being killed thinking they are the first one whose been affected by the plague.
For a year he live far away from human civilization,he only came out when his fellow comrade vampire decided that they had enough on hiding and its time to make a new world where all the different kind of immortal can glide with humans together without causing conflict with them.
After a few moments of nostalgic feeling.
Sharing those hidden memories of his past life.
I heard him mumbled in my ears.
Those warm breath of him fanning in the side of my cheeks brought a warm feeling deep within me.
The mating bond over powering my right state of mind.
But true to his words before the bond clouded our minds he uttered with kindness in those gray orbs.
" Now it's time for you to be free i prinkípissá mou, find your true love again my friend. " and with that I felt his cheeks glide down from my cheeks to my shoulder blade...
I felt his warm breath fanning on my bare skin for a split second before I felt his fang dig on my skin.
He suck my blood savoring it's taste in his mouth before gulping it.
Once it was absorbed by his body he fall on his knees in front of me embracing his own body before collapsing on the ground.
His breathing become heavy as he start twisting his body like his having a seizure.
I was just staring at him stuck on my feet don't know what to do.
After a few agonizing moment on the ground he stood up just like in matrix movie.
He tousled his jet black hair behind and stared back at me like nothing's happened.
"It is done thank you for your sacrifice Maricella." he said after, using his enchanting voice.
It is now the moment when he will release me with our bond and I will forget all the memories I had with my one true mate.
I closed my eyes not wanting to say anything because I know for sure that I can't even mumble a clear sentence .
I felt my throat tightening.
A lump forming on it making me swallow hard.
"I King Theo Andreadis
Un bond you Princess Maricella as my mate." there,he said finally those words.
One powerful sentence that came out of his mouth and brought my world to a-stopped.
" Thank you my friend "
His words lingered in my ears before darkness consume me.
