When I first found her…
She was only 17, and I couldn't help but find her… Irresistible. Her soft skin, green eyes and sweet smelling and mouth watering blood, all of it and so much more drove me mad. I love her. But I'll never admit it, and now it's too late…
I've raped and made her cry more times than I can count. In all of my immortal life I have never done that to any kind of woman. But I guess Aerith was the acceptation.
It's 3am. Aerith was in bed. The clan is in preparations for the eclipse festival, it's celebrated every 25 years or so, the mayoralty of vampires take they're mates. Sadly, I usually go alone or not go at all.
"Master…" said Aerith's soft voice. I look over my shoulder and see Aerith leaning agents the door way in her pink kimono. "Your orders were to go to bed Aerith! Why are you awake!?" I demanded. She looks down, her eyes sad. "I wanted you to sleep with me tonight… Please." She asked shyly. "Go to bed now!" I ordered. She nods her head and left.
I'm always cold with her… And I don't like it.
I got up and went to her room; she was already in bed trying to sleep. I could tell that she had tears running down her rosy cheeks, I hate seeing her cry, and yet I'm the one who causes it and does nothing to stop it.
I walk towards her and sat on the bed's edge. She didn't look at me, and tears kept forming in her eyes. "Aerith, why do you want me to sleep with you tonight?" I asked. She looks into me bloody-red eyes and blushes. "I don't want to be alone. Not on my birthday…" she breathes. Guilt over powered me, I couldn't change the way I treated her not even on a special day like this… I love her so much, and now, I want to prove it to her. I wipe her tears away gently, and look at her green eyes. "Happy birthday…" I said sweetly. Her eyes sparkle and I could feel a soft blush form on my cheeks. "Thank you master. Would you please sleep here with me tonight?" she asked with such innocence. I nod and lay beside her. She snuggled closer towards me and laid her head on my chest, I rap my arms around her small body. I kept my gaze at her beautiful face and eyes.
She fell asleep very quickly, I didn't leave my gaze on her, not once. I played with her light-brown, long hair. The aroma of her blood was sweet, the sweetest thing I've smelled.
She's perfect in every way, and she's more than I deserve.
It's morning now; the sun doesn't hurt us vampires, as long as we keep our rosaries on. Aerith still remained asleep. She looks so peaceful and gentle, it makes me smile.
I hear knocking on the front door. I know who it was immediately. I get out of bed as quietly as I could, trying not to wake Aerith.
I then answer the door. And my hunch on who it was, was correct. It was Lazard, the secretary for the Pure-blood council. "Lazard? What is it?" I ask. "The president of the council wants to see you," he said. "Alright, I'll be there shortly." I closed the door on his face before he could say anything else.
The Pure-blood council are three royal families that put our laws in the city. We all live Oblivion city. And when I mean 'we' I mean us vampires.
I head over to the council's castle… There, I meet Emily Hart. A young girl with curly, blonde hair. How I hate her. "Zackary, how nice to see you. " She said with a smile on her face. I nod my head and enter the castle. Angeal… The man that spared my life after he found me in the woods when I was only 12 years old. I'm grateful; he's treated me like a son and taught me everything I know.
"Zack. I'm glad you're here…" said Angeal as he turned to look at me.
"Hello Angeal." I said, bowing.
"Zack, I needed to speak with you about something important. Aerith, the girl that you use as a slave. I'm afraid she'll need to be killed."
"What!!! But why!!!!" I shouted.
"She's been exposed to many things! If you don't intend to turn her, then we'll need get her out of the way."
"She's my slave, and I don't intend for her to leave!"
"People are starting to talk Zack, Sephiroth and Genesis are growing in-patient! Either you turn her, or we take matters into our hands!"
I couldn't go agents his word… I agreed to turn Aerith, but with one condition. It needed to be on the night we celebrated the eclipse festival. He agreed, as long as I was punctual. I left and rushed back home. Aerith was awake and doing her morning choirs. She then rushes over towards me and greets me, taking my jacket and hanging it in the closet. I grab her shoulders as she hangs my garments, she then froze. I inhale the sweet aroma of her blood; I run my cold hands down her warm arms. I start to kiss her neck gently, that made her go stiff a little.
"Aerith…" I whisper in her ear.
"Yes?" she asked in a whisper as well.
"I'm sorry…" I took her in my arms and kiss her lips as softly as I could. Then, something happened…
…She kissed me back…
She wrapped her arms around my neck and tries to slide her tongue into my mouth. I permit her entrances, our tongues dances with each other. Aerith moaned a bit as we still shared our hot kiss. We separate; I look into her eyes, curiously, and wondered why she had kissed me back. But at that moment I didn't care, I took her to my room and into my bed… Where I made love to her… She didn't struggle or complained, like she would usually do. Instead, she wanted more. I was shocked at first, but I gave her what she wanted… Once we reached ourlimits, we rested in bed, I held her in my arms and she looks into my eyes and played with my hair. I would never let her do that… But I love her very much, and I was willing to spoil her for once…And after all, it's still her birthday. She smiled at me and tears ran down her cheek. "What's wrong?" I asked. she grabs my cheek and looks deeply into my red eyes.
"…I love you Zack…" she breathed.
Her words hit me like a bullet. How can this be true?! When all I've done is hurt her! Was she really telling me the truth!?
I said nothing, and look at her with my eyes wide. Her smiled faded and she closed her eyes. Tears still ran down her cheek. I left the room and left her there in tears.
