'... and that is what happened my lord.' Ky reported.

It was silent in the room.

'Is that really the truth Ky Luc?' Urd didn't believe it.

'My lord I would never dare to lie to you!' Ky assured.

Rose had not returned home. Emily who found the wounded but alive Charlie there waited for her return.

Rose could not think of returning at the moment. Everything repeated itself before her eyes. Again and again.

She didn't know what to do anymore.
Heck, she didn't even know if Emily survived.

Originally she had gone with the vampires to punish herself, not to find a loving family.

'...'

Was that what she wanted? Was that what others felt when they lost something precious by her hand?

{Urd Geales shouldn't have stopped drinking at that time.}

She was truly broken and unwilling to live anymore.

'In that case, why don't I just STOP living. Haha' she thought of a way.

{I will disrespect a vampire... No I will attack him and then he will kill me...Have I gone mad? No, I was never sane to begin with! Ha. Ha. Ha.}

'Hey. Cattle what's with that blood all over you?' a city guard pointed out.

Rose turned around {Here and now I say goodbye to the world... Ha. Ha.} she began to walk towards him.

'Cattle I asked you a question!'

Her emotionless expression changed into a mad one.

'Hey vampire yo...' someone shut her mouth with a hand.

'You are dismissed.' a familiar voice said.

'Yes! Lord Geales!' the vampire quickly vanished.

She pushed his arm away and turned around. With fearless eyes, she glared at him.

'Why would YOU stop me?!' she growled.

'It's understandable why you don't want to live anymore but death is..' she interrupted him 'Dark and endless. Is it that? I don't care. You can kill me. Go on.' she provoked.

'No, I will not. Come with me.' he grabbed her arm. She immediately tried to free herself 'No!'

Urd didn't let her discuss further and had thrown her over his shoulder, which resulted in more struggling on her side.

They entered his private study room as he dropped her on the sofa.

'Kill me already! Aren't you a vampire!? Behave like one! Come on I have come here to the vampires to be puni..' she suddenly got silent.

'Indeed I knew something was off about you. You came here to be punished was it? Who are you?' he asked.

'What do you mean?' she remained calm.

'Don't play the innocent. You said it yourself. So what are you.' he pinned her neck.

She closed her eyes 'I am cattle. So suck me dry. Vampire!' she ordered.

Since the day where he was turned into a vampire, nobody ever spoke to him like that. He was furious.

It was really strange. He shouldn't be able to feel like that anymore. He needed to know it for certain.

' Hey!! Say something you dum...?!' he kissed her which made her eyes widen.

He stopped and looked at her eyes.

'I see' he said with a serious face.
She suddenly realized what happened and slapped him, with success.

First, she regretted it but immediately thought that he may kill her now thus happily smiling.

'What are you doing and what's with that face.'

'This was my first kiss! What are you thinking imprudent male.' she shouted while trying to intentionally hit him again.

He quickly pinned her wrist behind her head making her protest loudly.

It was really strange what he was experiencing. He couldn't comprehend it. As one of the oldest vampires, he knew like no other that vampires lose all emotions the longer they live.

'Damn it why won't you kill me!?' she was really exhausted from all the shouting 'I am all alone now... I don't want to live... Don't you understand?!' tears once again rolled down her cheeks.

'No, you aren't. Two members of your family are still alive.'

'What.... you mean Emily and Charlie are... Where' she asked hope-filled.

'Yes, they are in a safe place. I will lead you to them after we talked properly with each other.' he said in a superior tone.

'Yes.'

She gave in.
