Heartthrob: The vampire princess doesn't want to be a stand-in

That was the only light that illuminated Vincent's darkness.

"If you don't mind, just tell me. Although I can't do anything, I will accompany you."

Seeing Vincent’s silence, Evelin spoke softly, and no other emotions could be heard in her warm and cool tone.

She really couldn't do anything, but she was willing to be that tree hole, accepting his pain that had nowhere to go and nowhere to vent.

"Thank you."

Vincent thanked him quietly and fell silent, which lasted for half an hour.

Seeing that he had no intention of speaking, Evelin didn’t want to force him, as long as he wanted to speak, she would listen at any time.

"It's getting late, you should go to bed early."

Evelin sighed softly and prepared to get up, but unexpectedly, Vincent grabbed her wrist.

He held her wrist tightly, so tightly that it caused a slight pain in her wrist.

"She's the only girl I've ever loved deeply in my life, the only one."

Hearing Vincent’s slightly cold tone, Evelin sat back down again.

Her calm blue eyes looked at Vincent, quietly waiting for his next words.

“I first met her when I was eight years old.”

"I can't describe how I felt when I saw her."

"I only know that all the beauty in this world is gathered in her."

"She walked towards me against the sun, but she was more dazzling than the scorching sun in August."

Vincent raised his hand to cover his eyes, as if he saw her again, the dazzling her.

"Is she your childhood sweetheart?"

Evelin nodded thoughtfully and asked aloud.

"right."

Vincent nodded at first, then seemed to remember something, smiled self-deprecatingly, and then gave this ambiguous answer.

Although Evelin had doubts, she didn't ask any further questions.

"She gave me all her youthful joys, and I filled her with all my youthful loves."

As he said this, Evelyn could clearly sense the change in Vincent’s friendship.

She can empathize better, she understands the kind of childhood sweetheart, full of joy feelings best.

Vincent's words perfectly summarized the most beautiful and unforgettable time of their youth.

It is purer and more impressive than any fancy words.

"She loves me with all her heart."

"And I gave up on her."

At this point, Vincent lowered his eyes and took back the hand that was holding Evelin’s wrist.

It was only half a second, but Evelin clearly felt his trembling.

"Then when I found out who my father was, hatred took over."

"She is his adopted daughter, my half-sister."

"I chose to deliberately distance myself from her and give her the cold shoulder."

"But seeing her sad and upset, I feel bad too."

"But what stands between us is my mother's life..."

“It wasn’t until I was completely separated from my father that I finally understood.”

"Even if there's this gap between us, I can't help but love her. I can't give up on her."

"Even though I was so dirty, she didn't mind."

"She still waited for me with expectation and liked me, but how could I be worthy of her at that time?"

Whenever he thought back to the dark past in the Si family, he felt regretful.

If he had not been blinded by hatred and used his body to gain power by any means necessary, they would not have reached that point.

"this is not your fault."

Hearing Evelin's frowned words, Vincent did not answer but just smiled.

The smile seemed forced, and Evelin knew that it would not comfort her and stopped talking.

"I worked my way up from the bottom, taking advantage of everyone I could."

"At that time, I wanted more power and status."

"I thought that doing this would make her happy, and that I would be worthy of her again by getting these superficial things."

"She deserves to be so dazzling and beautiful."

"But I didn't wake up until I completely lost her."

"I pushed her to someone else with my own hands. I crushed her love for me with my own hands."

Evelin probably understood that he loved her and was even more inferior.

That's why he wanted to climb higher, thinking that only in this way could he be worthy of her status.

But she didn't expect to be pushed away by his self-righteousness.

"She fell in love with that man, which was different from the love she had when she was young."

"She loved that man deeply, and I got the rights as I wished."

"I was the biggest winner, but I lost my only bargaining chip."

“If it weren’t for her, I could have lived in darkness as I took it for granted until I was eight years old.”

"But her light was so beautiful that it only shone through a crack."

"I can't go back into the darkness anymore."

"They say that first love is the most innocent."

Vincent's persistence reminded her of her former self, stupid and ridiculous, but the happiest.

"She is my most unforgettable love for the rest of my life."

Vincent sighed softly and suppressed the throbbing in his heart.

Resist the urge to think about that girl like crazy.

Once the floodgates were opened, the thoughts that had been suppressed for tens of thousands of days and nights surged like a flood, knocking at his scarred heart.

"Is this topic too heavy?"

Seeing Evelin didn’t speak for a long time, Vincent finally came back to his senses.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, with an expression that seemed deliberately relaxed.

Evelin frowned, the discomfort in her eyes evident.

It would be a lie to say that she doesn't feel bad, but she won't show it.

Hearing Vincent's relieved voice, Evelin put away her different emotions.

"Don't torture yourself."

Evelyn turned her eyes away and stared at the faint candlelight, speaking to Vincent, but also as if she was speaking to herself.

Of course Vincent understood the implicit meaning of the words: some things should be forgotten and one should not torture himself.

It was just a moment, really just a moment. He thought he saw the girl in his memory. Her face overlapped with Fia's and unexpectedly broke into his sight. She once told herself the same thing: don't torture yourself.

Vincent was filled with shock from the bottom of his heart. They were so alike, so alike that he couldn't believe it. So alike that he couldn't help but get close to her and mistook her for her.

"Can you hug me?" Vincent blurted out the words while thinking, and even he was shocked.

Evelin looked back with a hint of surprise, he didn’t seem to be joking.

Seeing the desire in Vincent's eyes, she hesitated for a moment and finally reached out her hand.

The moment when Vincent held her in his arms.

There was only one voice circling in his heart.

just one time.

I hugged you again, after countless days and nights, crossing the gap of time, and finally touching you, my little princess.

Today was the day since she left, but Garland could no longer remember exactly.
