silent in the black lake

"Can the Senate give freedom to humans, and can vampires stop killing humans?" I heard the hoarse voice of 'I', and suddenly there was a scene in front of me

His gloomy face caught his eye, "No," he said coldly

"why" 'I' grabs his clothes, in disbelief at his cold and direct answer

"Human blood is food, and human beings will not obediently contribute their blood if they do not rule them," he said bluntly.

"Humans were not born to be food for vampires" 'I' trembled at the disregard for human life in his tone, which he had never shown in front of 'me'

"It is precisely because human beings have such thoughts that slavery is needed." He squeezed 'me' chin, "If you don't resist and accept the rule obediently, there will be a lot less killing."

'I' looked at him incredulously, "But those humans who surrendered before were still killed by vampires."

"That's because they are not even worthy of making food." He looked calm, paused, and then said, "You don't have to worry about these, I won't let any night clansmen hurt you."

"How can I not care?" 'I' yelled at him for the first time, "I am a descendant of the Stuart family, the Stuart family who are constantly fighting for human freedom"

He hugged 'me' on the back, and said quietly: "You are you, the Stuart family is the Stuart family, you don't need to impose their brainless mission on yourself, it has nothing to do with you."

"That's not a dead-headed mission, it's a mission watered by the blood of countless human beings." 'I' grabbed his clothes, "They would rather not die than let me live, let me, Stuart It has nothing to do with me for the descendants of my family to survive, it is clearly my fault, but they don’t even want their lives to save me.”

"They are all your subordinates. It is only right to sacrifice for you. You don't have to feel too much guilt." He squeezed the chin of 'me', his dark eyes were uncertain

"How can it be taken for granted! They also have relatives and children waiting for them to go home, all because of me, and they will never go back, all because of me" 'I' looked at him eagerly, wanting to get from him There is a hint of approval and understanding on the face

But his dark eyes gathered gloom, and he said coldly, "So, you want to inherit this mission and take on this responsibility, right?"

'I' loosened his clothes, 'I' could see that he was very unhappy, but the faces of those who sacrificed for 'me' kept flashing in front of my eyes, tears welled up in my eyes, "Yes" I answered softly

"What can you get, when you give your life for this mission, it will be nothing more than a few words of praise behind you, maybe it's just more ridicule." His black eyes were extremely gloomy, with waves tumbling faintly, and he reached out to wipe the face of 'me' corner of eye

"I don't want to get anything, I just don't want those dead people sacrificed in vain" 'I' answered honestly

"For them, for others, even if you sacrifice your life?" His voice was a little trembling, and the fingers that caressed the corner of 'me' suddenly vigorously

"If there is a day when I need to give my life" 'I' looked at him, "I will remember that I am a descendant of the Stuart family"

His black eyes were instantly filled with anger, he pushed 'me' away, turned around and disappeared

'I' was terrified, he had never pushed 'me' away so hard, his look made 'me' feel like he would never come to me again

"Are you gone! Are you leaving me! Where have you been? Will you come to me again! Don't be unhappy, okay!" 'I' couldn't stop crying, and kept yelling, "Don't leave me, okay, don't want me, okay?"

'I' searched all the places I've been with him, from the early morning to the sunset, from the palace to the outside of the city, I searched for a long time, over and over again, but I never saw him again the trace

He just disappeared into 'my' world

Even if I wake up suddenly from a dream in the middle of the night, there is no figure of him sitting on the side of 'my' bed and staring at 'me', even if 'I' falls off the horse, there is no pair of strong arms to catch 'me', even if 'I' cried all night, and there is no familiar cold embrace to hold 'me' tightly

During this period, the battle between vampires and us also became more frequent. Although 'I' still hadn't eased from the sadness of his departure, seeing more and more people sacrificed in the war, the heavy mission and responsibility made me I have to bury this sadness in my heart for a while

In this way, there was a time when a vampire attacked my elder brother in a war, and 'I' pushed my elder brother away in a hurry, but was pierced by a sword, so I lost too much blood and was sent back to the palace, 'I' didn't see him again

Slowly opened my eyes, in the blurred vision, 'I' saw him sitting on the head of 'my' bed, caressing 'my' face

'I' grabbed his hand caressing 'my' face, "don't leave me" 'I' opened his mouth to him, but 'my' throat was dry and sore, so 'I' couldn't decide whether to say this out

'I' was a little anxious at once, ignoring the pain from the wound in front of me, I hugged his arm, "Don't leave me" 'I' repeated again

'I' couldn't see his face clearly, I didn't know what his expression was, I only saw him pressing on 'my' shoulder, as if he wanted to pull his arm out of 'my' arms

He wanted to leave me, and at that moment 'I' only had this thought in my mind, 'I' sat up suddenly and jumped on him, hugging him tightly

He probably didn't expect 'me' to be like this, he hugged 'me' and fell to the ground. After a long time, his body softened and he hugged me tightly

Feeling his tight embrace, 'I' was elated, "You won't leave me, will you?" 'I' asked excitedly, but he didn't answer

'I' raised my head in a panic, and saw that his black eyes were cloudy and cloudy, and his face was cold, with an unhappy look

He picked up 'me' and put it back on the bed, leaned over and tucked the quilt for 'me', put his arms on the side of 'me', looked at 'me' carefully for a while, but the more Staring at his black eyes, the darker and darker

'I' suddenly tightened my heart, and the panic in my head expanded infinitely, "Don't want me, okay?" The voice of 'I' was a little trembling, and I kept looking at him, trying to see a trace of relief from his cold face, but he Keep silent, and make a gesture to stand up straight

In an instant, 'I' felt suffocated, 'I' hugged his neck violently, and pulled his face back in front of 'me' with all my strength

His face kept enlarging in front of 'me' as expected, and at the same time, a cold, soft softness covered 'my' lips.

There are ripples in his black eyes, 'I' can't tell whether it's happy or angry, but he also maintained this posture and stared at 'me' for a long time

I don't know how long it took, suddenly the corners of his mouth raised slightly, separated from 'my' lips, and he was about to straighten his body

Although his face is no longer so cold, but 'I' still hold his neck tightly, not letting him get up

"You're so active today, aren't you shy?" He raised his eyebrows

"I'll take the initiative, won't you be unhappy?" 'I' can feel the lightness in his tone

"That depends on what you take the initiative to do." He looked at 'me' with great interest

'I' hooked his neck, stood up slightly, covered his lips again, 'I' could feel 'me' so he seemed a little happy

He chuckled lightly, "For the sake of your initiative, I will satisfy your request." After speaking, he leaned on 'me' and pecked 'me' on the lips carefully.

Until his lips parted, he looked at me quite seriously and said: "You can't take the initiative to anyone else, understand?"

'I' nodded, and then he shifted his gaze to my lips, stroked them, and said nonchalantly, "It's too young."

"I'm not young anymore, I'll be an adult next year" 'I' hastened to emphasize, and said quite proudly: "No one dared to treat me like a child on the battlefield"

He hooked the corner of his mouth, "Then do you know what you called what you took the initiative to do to me just now?"

'I' suddenly turned hot, shifted my gaze, and said in a voice I could only hear: "Kiss"

"Do you understand its meaning?" He raised his eyebrows and asked with a serious expression

"No, no, no, I don't understand" 'I' stammered, as if the roots of my ears were burning hot, I subconsciously withdrew my arms around his neck and began to scrape my fingers

Of course 'I' understand. In the army, under the influence of the aristocrats, I can't even figure it out. That's something you can only do with someone you like.

He smiled meaningfully and said, "You are also going to be fifteen next year, and I should give you a special gift on the day you become an adult."

"What gift" 'I' is a little curious, in fact, the things he gives me every birthday are very special, but they seem to be very common to him

"You will know when the time comes." He pretended to be mysterious, but then he became serious again and asked solemnly: "Will you accept my first embrace, become a night clan, and be with me forever?"

'I' was startled, seeing him speechless, at this moment 'I' thought a lot, about my feelings for him, about his feelings for me, about fighting vampires all this time, about my father And brother, about the Stuart family, about that heavy duty and responsibility

After a long time, 'I' looked into his rippling black eyes and replied seriously: "I will not and cannot become a night clan"

He didn't seem surprised at all, he still looked at 'me' calmly, but the little ripples in his black eyes gradually disappeared, and the black lake returned to its bottomless appearance

Looking into his eyes, I suddenly remembered something, something that made me feel like a knife

Humans who are first embraced by half-vampires will only become half-vampires, and will not become night clansmen.

The scene in front of me is like a revolving lantern, and the time when I was 45 to [-] years old is reproduced one by one in front of me, a memory like a dream

After that time, he never mentioned the first hug to me again, and he still came to see me every now and then as before, but I was sure of one thing in my heart, that is, I liked and depended on him, but I couldn't say come out

We have not stopped fighting vampires this year, but what is very exciting is that we have won most of the victories and temporarily ushered in a short dawn for mankind, and I have become a respected young man because of this. prince

I see 'me' smiling brightly in the mirror, but then downcast: "Isn't it ugly when I smile like that"

He hugged 'me' from behind suddenly, looked at 'me' in the mirror whose head reached his heart, and said: "It looks good when I smile."

"Although today's ceremony was held by civilians, I heard that it is very grand. My brother can't go, and I will go alone. If I mess it up, I will definitely lose my brother's face, and it will also make those who just believe that human beings can win Disappointed civilians"'I' looked at my fingers scratching each other, feeling uneasy

"Wouldn't mess it up" he leaned over and grabbed 'my' fingers, "as long as you don't scratch your fingers"

"Huh?" 'I' looked at him in the mirror puzzled

He pulled 'my' hand close to his mouth and kissed it, and said with certainty: "You scratch your fingers when you're nervous."

'I' was taken aback, and looked at him in disbelief: "Is there any?"

With a chuckle, he leaned over to 'my' ear, looked at 'me' in the mirror, and said leisurely: "It's also true when you lie."

"I, I didn't lie to you" 'I' shouted, but at the same time 'I' found that 'my' two fingers really began to scratch subconsciously

He hooked the corners of his lips, straightened his body, stroked 'my' face while embracing 'me' shoulders, looked at 'me' in the mirror, and said solemnly: "Congratulations on becoming an adult, tonight I will be in the bell tower waiting for you"

"I will definitely come back" 'I' looked at him in the mirror with a smile, and raised my hand to cover his

I trembled violently, I remember it was my 15th birthday, I rushed back from the palace that night, and encountered a large-scale attack of fourteen and fifteen generations of vampires, after my brother's guard knight sacrificed his life to save me, I Rescued by Raymond and taken back to the palace, that's when Raymond told me he would never leave me again

My heart beat instantly, and I subconsciously felt that what happened that night had something to do with my memory of him becoming Linton

Whether he is Linton or Raymond, I quickly looked back at the memory, and sure enough, the scene in front of me was completely carried out according to everything in my memory

I was scratched all over by a vampire. The vampire suddenly became mad and rushed to bite me. The guard knight rushed to rescue me. The guard knight made me hold the rein tightly when I was unconscious. Lost consciousness on my back, regained some consciousness in the middle, saw him chase away the vampires who were chasing me, I lost consciousness again, and when I woke up Raymond told me he would never leave again

What happened during the period when I was unconscious, why did I see him as Raymond, or whose black eyes belonged to?

I recalled this memory repeatedly, and suddenly I found a small neglected place

I remembered that when I woke up, there was a faint smell of blood in my mouth. Although the taste of blood was already very faint, I still remembered it vividly. It was clearly the angel heart that I tasted not long ago!

—— "But now the 'angel heart' is gone, and there won't be any more

Suddenly, the image of him half-kneeling in front of me and putting the 'Angel Heart' on my hand appeared in front of my eyes

I eagerly grabbed his hands that once held me tightly.

The next moment his hand was swallowed by the burning smoke, and then his whole body disappeared in the wind
