MY GUARDIAN VAMPIRE

Meeting you, was not my will but loving you was beyond my control.

Jeffry Ernest Luxion

Hanson stood facing his father who was sitting at his desk. They were in Lord Gervinder. Hanson’s gaze was a little worried, if his father would give punishment regarding the kidnapping of the owner of the immortal blood from the human world.

“You know what you’ve done?!” Lord Yoshiro’s voice broke the silence between the two of them.

“I want immortal blood!” Hanson answered fearlessly. He was sure after hearing that answer he would be furious.

Lord Yoshiro stood up from his seat and approached in front of Hanson “Do what you want!” His hand touched Hanson’s shoulder and a smirk was etched on Lord Yoshiro’s face

“Father, support me?!” asked Hanson with a slight smile because it was rare for his father to stand up for his wishes when everyone else didn’t, including his mother. Queen Arcelle.

“Of course! If you were you, father would also try to get the immortal blood!”

Hanson smiled triumphantly.

“It is your destiny to continue the throne of the Gervinder. To become a god you must have great strength. That immortal blood will make you even more invincible.”

Lord Yoshiro is the opposite of Queen Arcelle. If Arcelle loves Jeffry so much, Yoshiro loves his biological son, Hanson more.

The sun was now setting perfectly, replaced by the light from the moon which looked amazing in Zara’s eyes. The cold air pierced Zara’s skin even though she was wearing the black sweater given by Hana, a friendly and kind shop assistant.

Several times Zara looked around and shuddered in horror as she walked along the village road which was already very quiet and desolate. More dominated by the sound of insects that accompany their steps.

Jeffry walked right beside Zara. Since then he has not made a sound. It created silence between the two of them. After passing the village road they had arrived at the end of the village.

The end of the village is a dense, lush forest with towering trees. This forest looks less scary than the forest Zara has been through before. Zara continues to follow Jeffry’s steps into the forest, in her heart she is already cursing in annoyance.

“I’m so hungry, if I faint from hunger that would be great. Just let him suffer!!”

Zara steps her foot into the forest path. The forest was so dark it made Zara’s eyesight really bad. Several times he tripped over the wood lying below.

Brugh …

Zara falls down and winces in pain. Her hands hurt a lot from supporting her body so it wouldn’t touch the ground. Jeffry who saw that glanced at Zara who fell right behind him.

“Be careful when walking!”

“It’s not a matter of caution, Jeffry!! The forest is so dark I can’t see anything!!” Zara protests angrily while trying to stand up.

Jeffry himself just realized that Zara can’t see in the dark. He almost forgot that the prisoner he, was carrying was a human which he found really troublesome.

“Here!”

Without Zara realizing it, Jeffry grabbed her hand.

Cold… so cold,

That was the first thing Zara could feel when she touched Jeffry’s hand.

“If after this you still fall. That means you are stupid in walking!”

They walked again along the forest path. “You are so troublesome!” Jeffry’s words didn’t hurt Zara at all, instead Zara was now neutralizing her beating heart, which was beating chaotically.

“Cold, can make a person’s heart beat faster, yes it’s true!” Zara murmurs in heart.

***

Blanchard’s Palace.

Six vampires are standing on the castle tower…

Edward, Alex, Rico, Jayden, Somi, and Gavian. They stood parallel to the beauty of Blanchard’s palace at night. They are fully clothed. Long black robes, swords, black gloves, also wore the hood of their robes on their heads.

As planned. They will launch their mission tonight. The search mission for the owner of the immortal blood is none other than Zara.

“We’re already like in the Avengers movie. I already look so handsome. Isn’t that right Rico?” Alex smiled showing a row of his teeth while raising and lowering his eyebrows looking at Rico. “You’re handsome. But not more handsome than me!” Rico smiled slightly glancing at Alex.

“You guys stop talking! Watch out if you don’t remember our plan!!” Somi glared at Alex and Rico.

“Relax a little Somi!! I’m smart so don’t worry,” Alex looked at Somi with a mocking look.

“We’re going to Chinhan village. Zara will definitely pass that place. The only fastest way to Gervinder.” Gavian explained carefully.

“Listen to me!

We will take the vampire but not kill him!!” Jayden said firmly, and the five of them nodded in return.

“Then! What are you waiting for?” -Rico

They all shot like lightning into black shadows. Their first move was … Chinhan Village.

Along the road through the forest Zara just kept quiet and didn’t complain anymore. He’s actually really cold right now. Jeffry’s hand still faithfully gripped Zara’s hand. Several times Zara turned to the side to look at Jeffry but her face was covered by a hood.

Zara gasped when her eyes caught a gate stretched out high in front of her. Zara thinks she is just hallucinating but no. The closer he got, the clearer the gate became. When it was actually in front of him Zara frowned in disbelief. The gate he saw earlier was just a thick fog. But he was sure what he saw earlier was a tall, sturdy gate.

Zara stopped her steps making Jeffry look surprised. “I’m scared. What kind of place is behind this thick fog?”

“Just follow! You are safe as long as you are with me,”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Hearing Jeffry’s story, I don’t know why Zara became calmer.

One step

Two steps

Three steps

…

And the tenth step now Zara is out of the forest,

His feet tread on a green meadow that stretches so wide surrounded by trees.

“Beautiful!” Zara said with a look of admiration.

Extensive green meadow. The grass that is a little tall makes anyone want to lay their body there.

“I want to run there, can I?”

Jeffry nodded looking at Zara’s happy face which made him stunned.

“Let go!”

Jeffry still faithfully stared at Zara.

“I can’t go there, if you’re still holding my hand, Jeffry!” Zara snapped.

Jeffry gasped when he realized that his hand was still gripping Zara’s arm.

After that, Zara ran and set foot in a very beautiful meadow. Zara is made even more amazed when every step of her makes fireflies scatter. Zara runs so excited she jumps up and down.

The moon shone brightly as if she was happy to see Zara’s happy face which made her even more beautiful like a goddess from heaven with the black dress she was wearing.

A pair of someone’s eyes never leave for a second looking at Zara’s happy face. Jeffry hadn’t blinked before as if he didn’t want to miss a second seeing Zara’s happy face.

Zara is circling surrounded by fireflies. Her smile was so sweet showing a row of neatly arranged teeth. Slowly but surely Jeffry drew closer to the object that kept pulling him closer like a magnet.

Until his steps stopped right in front of Zara. Their eyes met perfectly. Eyes that can see each other’s feelings. Fireflies with shimmering light fly around their bodies plus the moon is part of their story. A story that they never imagined before. The story of the struggle is also a proof of loyalty.
