[The Twilight Saga·Carlyle] Hidden God

"You can just call me 'Carlisle' like Edward and the others." The young surgeon raised the corners of his mouth slightly, scooped up the boy with both hands, and gently placed the boy on his lap. ——he would not like to have his future partner call himself "Daddy".The generations in the family are chaotic enough.

"Carlisle." The boy nodded in satisfaction. ——Sure enough, it’s more comfortable to be called by name.

"Ah."

"Do I need to change my last name to 'Karen'?" The boy blinked his pretty blue eyes.

"I'm not forcing that ... you can keep the 'Pace' name if you want."

Anyway, the last name will be 'Karen'. ——Carlisle turned dark.

"No, no, I like the name 'Karen.'—it sounds much easier than 'Pace,'" said the boy at once, "Edmund Cullen.—Ha! Sounds great! "

"I'm glad you like it." Carlisle stretched out his index finger and gently rubbed Edmund's face.

The excellent eyesight unique to vampires allowed Carlisle to clearly see the soft golden fluff on the boy's face even if he wasn't close, the red bloodshot eyes on the whites of the eyes, and even the blue irises. Few tiny black lines. ——The pair of beautiful cat's eyes are like the purest sky above the Aegean Sea, so deep that once you plunge into it, you can't get rid of it.

It is simply a beautiful blue to the extreme. — he thought.

"Has anyone ever told you you have beautiful eyes?"

"A lot of people have said it. Especially Mrs. Hall, the director of the Hall Orphanage - she always calls me 'intoxicating blue eyes,' but I hate it when she calls me that." The boy thought for a moment , and then speak seriously. "But... there are people who don't like it. -Peter used to tease me, he said I looked like a wolf the color of my eyes... Yes, he used to say that about me before he got a little bit of a brother. ——This is simply too stupid. Wolves only have gray, tawny, brown, and yellow-green eyes, okay? Those with blue eyes are sled dogs, commonly known as huskies.”

"I think Peter means you have more husky eyes," Carlisle said.

"No! - I'd rather be like a wolf than that kind of stupid dog - hey!" The boy accidentally pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth, causing a more intense smell of blood to float into Carlisle's nose.

Edmond wiped it with his hands subconsciously, and he was relieved when he found that the amount of bleeding was not very large.

He rested one hand on Carlisle's knee, and tremblingly stretched out his bloody hand towards the cardboard box on the coffee table.

"Algernon's strength is really great.——I was almost stunned by him. But——Carlisle?" The boy tilted his head and looked at the frowning surgeon in front of him.

"Ok?"

"Your eyes—the color—seem to darken a bit." The boy wasn't sure if it was the light or—something else.

"Oh, it's no wonder." Carlisle took the white facial tissue from the boy's hand and gently wiped the blood from the corner of the boy's mouth with it.

"No wonder?" Edmund repeated. —he had absolutely no idea what Carlisle was talking about.

"It's not contact lenses. - My eyes are going to change color. - You know, I chose to lie that day to protect you. It's not good for you to know this too early." Carlisle crumpled up the tissue, Throw it away without even looking at it. ——The ball of paper immediately drew an arc and fell into a green dustbin.

"Is what you said true?"

"Oh, now you don't have to hide anything from me, you should show the expression you should have. ——Smart boy... You already guessed that I didn't tell you the truth that day, didn't you?" Carlisle said in a low voice Laughed. ——The boy made his expression and tone very good. If the other party wasn't a vampire who had lived for more than 300 years, he might have really been deceived by him. "You think I didn't notice?"

"Well—you are amazing." Edmund admired sincerely.

"You are also very good. At least Edward didn't see anything wrong." Carlisle tightened his arms. — This action forced the boy to get very close.At the same time, in order to be more comfortable, he had to raise his arms around Carlisle's neck.

And the surgeon seemed to enjoy the boy holding him that way.

"Would you like to tell me why?"

"I think so. As part of the Cullen family, you have a right to know our secret—"

"Wait—don't say it yet!" Edmund rolled his eyes, "Let me guess, okay?"

"Of course." Carlisle smiled.

"I can—um—"

"Of course.—Do whatever you want with me." Carlisle moved his arm away.

The free boy was as active as a kitten released from a cage.

He knelt next to Carlisle, reached out and grabbed the latter's ear, and after studying for a long time, he said regretfully, "It's not an elf."

"Obviously not."

"Hmm -- obviously not goblins, orcs or anything like that." The boy rubbed his chin, blinking his beautiful blue eyes and staring at Carlisle's handsome face, "Dwarves, Giants, Zergs... are even more impossible."

"Of course." Carlisle smiled.He began to wonder what kind of racial identification the boy would give him.

"Then you are the White Wizard?"

"No."

"Huh—Dragon Knight?"

"No."

"Angel?"

"No."

"Apollo, the sun god?"

"Not at all."

"Moon god Kongsu?"

"No."

"Thunder Thor?"

"...Edmund." Carlisle shook his head helplessly. —it seems possible for a boy to guess all the gods in all civilizations without a hint. "You can't just limit yourself to those -- bright images."

"Not an image of light? Then—Cronus, the god of creation and destruction of time and space?"

"No."

"Loki of Jotunheim?"

"……no."

"Baku? Cardassians? Klingons? I see—you must be Romulans."

"No, I'm sure I was born on Earth." Carlisle raised his forehead. ——It’s really getting further and further away.

"The image that was born on the earth—uh—is not a bright image." The boy frowned while holding his chin, "Can you give me some more hints? Otherwise, I won't be able to figure it out for days and nights."

"The hint is right in front of your eyes." Carlisle stretched out his hand, "Check it yourself."

The author has something to say: This is today's share~~~

Sorry for the lateness. ——I was threatened by my mother to go shopping, and I have not come back until now.Simply drunk.

Women are so scary...555555555/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~

When he found out that Carlisle hadn't told the truth - he chose to respect and pretended not to find out - when Carlisle found out he pretended not to find out. ——So it’s still Katie who is the best! ! !

PS: Little Edmund thinks that everything about God is a lie. ——So vampires are also deceptive to him.

He would rather believe that he has encountered all kinds of strange creatures than that he has encountered the descendants of Cain... so he said that Kata is a "Romulan".

Wait, don't know what a Romulan is?

It doesn't matter, just know that they are aliens.
