410. Vampire Don’t Blush

"Aren't these all part of the Vampire Regions?" She looked up at him as she asked the question.

"They are, I suppose," he turned away and Mauve didn't know better she would have thought he was blushing. But she was sure vampires didn't blush.

"You see. Then what gave you the impression that I didn't like it? You could have told me at least. I wouldn't have gotten the wrong idea."

"Yeah, you're right. I should have and I am sorry. None of this would have happened if I had come clean about it."

He squeezed her tighter to his body. She rested her head on the cradle of his neck, her forehead touched his bare skin. His cold skin felt soothing against her forehead. She missed this."

"Apology not accepted. I don't think I have completely forgiven you just yet."

"Does it matter? As long as you stay in my arms, I will take that."

She pulled back and stared up at his face. "Are you really okay with me not forgiving you?"
