chosen

Chapter 3

“So, you are really him? The same Marius, the only millennium vampire.
And how did u end up here? I thought you could only die if you were in the sun’s
exposer?” I plagued him with questions rising from her chair and all he did,
was look at her with understanding eyes. He didn’t utter any words, sounds,
or even grunts. And once I was done with questions, he smiled at me and
walked forward about 3inchs away from my body, at an arm’s length to be
exact.

“Are you finished?” he asked and smiled with the most cockiest grin I have
ever laid eyes on. I could only nod. “I am he. But the reason I am here is
not up for discussion. My choice and nobody can change it. Not even you, my
dear dead one.” I was almost hurt that I couldn’t even get him to change
his mind but I put it out of my head fast, only because I remembered that he
was psychic and he could read minds, and the last thing I would want is a
vampire reading my mind.

“You can’t put it out of thought, I have already seen it and heard it. Your
powers aren’t as mine, for I am older and much more powerful. My black-eyed
one.” I had enough. “Why are you talking to me in such a manner? You talk
to me as if we were once lovers or something, and from I can recall, I don’t
remember sharing anything intimate with you.” I might have said that a
little too strongly because his face changed and his eyes began to glow. “It
is true. We have not shared intimately with each other but I speak to you
the way I have always to my children, and although you are not I still will
speak to you in this manner.”

“you wondered who I was when you were facing judgment, yes?” he asked and
walked around my chair to the bookshelf that contained the classic novels.
“Yes, I thought I would have recognized you but I couldn’t.” I said
following his movements with my eyes. “You were scared, almost terrified.
Your judgment was the first one I have ever done, I hoped not to frighten
you, but being in her Almighty’s presence must have been over welling to the
breaking point. I have known nobody to ever deify there chosen path before,
it was then I knew that your transformation would be one of pain and agony.
“ Remembering back to the event just hours ago, I was embarrassed because my
fear was seen without my knowledge and I cried like a bitch and screamed and
groaned as though I was being tortured. “I hated that I had drawn a
spectacle to myself. I am ashamed at how I had hurt her and yet she forgave
me instantly.” He looked at my face which still had some human
characteristics to it, it was full of regret and anger and shame.


“There is no need for you to feel as you do right now, I can only imagine the pain, it
must have felt like hell and agony. She forgives because that is who she is
and nobody can change that.” He stopped and picked up, Dickens and looked
while smiling at my taste for literature. ‘I felt your pain, my heart did,
and my hearing even before she had ripped out your heart. I could see the
pain already exposed on you and yet you took it without resistance. To be
the only one without a heart and having it ripped out in front of the jury
of your peers and myself, I can only imagine how you must have felt.’ He was
right I had never felt so much pain since the attack on earth a year ago,
and even then I was in a coma and didn’t remember it later on until people
told me, it felt unreal. “Only then did I know that there was no chance for
me to return back to earth again, without a heart, I am nothing but a
walking spirit.” My face fell downwards and I had wished for tears but they
didn’t come. “You have no more tears, my dark one. For this is the life
expected of you, and death has no regrets and no pains. The only pain that
was left for you was your transformation and that was done and will not
change again.” He put down dickens and came to face me on bended knees,
almost groveling at my feet. With his pale, white index finger he lifted up
my chin so I was face to face, eye to eye with him, and I had to admit, he
was intoxicating. “I know you are frightened of what you have become but
think of this, you are all powerful next of course, to God. And with your
power you need to learn to control it. Once you get the hang of it, you will
cease this need for regret and apology.” When he spoke those words I knew
that he meant it all in the sincere form and yet I had already knew
what he was going to say before he had the chance to form the words with sound.
I focused all my attention on his words but my eyes wandered to his blood
red lips.


“You wish to kiss them, do you not?” he said and interupreted my thoughts.
“You must stop treading into my thoughts. Is it so I don’t have any more
chance to keep my thoughts to my own, you read them before I can think them
aloud or push them out of my mind, in fear you have already.” Only he
didn’t stop facing me and he looked in my eyes, as though he was reading
into my soul, It was in fact that I dare not let him, a vampire who I have
fallen in love with in the novels in which I have read of him find out that
I want nothing more than to kiss his lips just once. “May I see your fangs,
only then will I know that you are truly real and not a play on my thoughts
and deepest desires.” Why oh why did I ask that, knowing that I was not
ready to see if it was truly real. And yet, he beckoned to my request and
opened his mouth and I saw them, his canines so razor sharp that his face
changed dramatically when they came into his teeth. “Oh my.” Was I could
say, because I was shocked and very intrigued at such a sight. “is this what
you wish to see?” he asked in a deep voice with a distinct purr in his tone.
I nodded and laughed a coy laughter.


“You never did answer my question?” he replied and closed his mouth and his
teeth went the way they were before I asked him to revel them to me. “And
what question was that, my vampire friend?” I said with the same tone of coy
and flirtation he had. “You wish to kiss me, yes?” Well there really wasn’t
anything I could do or think because he would know it before I could even
muster the courage to think it. “I do. But I am afraid I can not.” I had to
remove myself from his presence because he was too intoxicating for me to
handle, and I am death for god’s sake. I went down into my living room and
sat in my captain’s chair and my wings protruded outwards so they were above
the top of the chair, And so I may sit fully in the back of it. “There is no
need to walk away from me, dark one. “ his voice was so clear and close I
looked above into the library in which I had just abandoned and yet he
wasn’t there. I turned my head towards the kitchen, he wasn’t there either.
“you know, I cant follow you with your highly advance sense of speed, I am
only death. While you my friend, are already dead.” I think my tone was
mostly anger and some fear, but it subsided. “I am dead, yes. But you cant
runaway anymore.” He was standing in front of the fireplace, his red cloak
open to showing a white shirt and black pants and his boots looking freshly
shined. Damn he was beautiful. “I have no choice anymore, do I? I am suppose
to become something that I have feared since I was little and now there is a
fucking vampire stalking me in my room and all I want…” my words ceased only
because he had his lips on mine, he had moved with lightening fast speed and
I didn’t notice until his hot breath was on my own. He kissed with a
persistence and almost claiming such. I hadn’t noticed until my tongue had
grazed his fangs and almost then I knew that if blood was to rush into my
mouth, that would be the end of me. But being death, I had no blood, no
heart, no human part of me. I still remained cold.


Pulling away from him, I stared into his eyes and knew that he had done it
to silence my protest and venting. “Don’t be ashamed to ask what you want,
my dark one. You were dealt this card, without warning and now, you must
live it out until the end. If you wish to kiss me, then tell me so and will
not be by force but by understanding on both parts as well as wanting.” He
spoke softly and I enjoyed the way his words formed and felt on my face, and
in my hands he laid his own, icy cold to match my own texture. "so what now?"
and he just looked at me and never spoke but i could read his thoughts and he
was knew what i would want to happen but he wasnt able to perform anymore and not
knowing if we could do this in The Kingdom, i didnt think on it. I just let it go.

But nothing could keep me from wondering what it would be like if we did, how it would
feel, and yet i guess i didnt remove them from my mind fast enough because he smiled and
laughed softly, "i know, i have thought about it aswell. ever snice i saw you hours ago
and wondered if i was still able to perform, i would want it to be with you. something
has pulled me to you and for that reason, not alone. its much much more. and all i could say
was, "OH SHIT."
