Part I

(Not Alone)

"Are you frightened?"

He raised his head slightly, the soft moonlight making triangles of light against his tanned skin. Directing his eyes to the woman who lay across from him, he flashed a nervous smile.

"Yes."

His silver-companion looked back at him, sympathy gleaming in her ruby-colored eyes.

"So am I."

With a sudden sigh he edged closer to her, burying his blonde head into the crook of her pale shoulder.

"We do not have to go through with this, you understand," she said, stroking his blonde hair with her white hands. "You are still young…are you sure this is what you want?"

"Yes," he answered after a moment's hesitation.

He was trembling suddenly; she pulled him closer to her, tucking his blonde head under her pale neck. "You do not have to do this, boy...your humanity is worth too much for you to give it up all for me."

"If you can go through all those centuries alone," he whispered, smoothing his hand up her white arm, "I will go through centuries more by your side."

(Introduction)

"Lena, Yulie…I want you to meet Sierra. Sierra Mikain."

The vampire slowly extended her pale hand, smiling nervously as she eyed the two women seated in front of her. There was Lena Suphala, the red-haired woman dressed in Harmonian military garb—this was Nash's aunt. And Yulie, with long blonde hair and a jacket of deep fuschia—his sister. "I am very pleased to meet you," she said as smoothly as she was able. "Nash has told me many things about his family."

Yulie was the first to take Sierra's outstretched hand. "Yes…it was quite a surprise for us when we received Nash's letter…we hadn't seen him for so long, it was an even bigger shock we when realized he was married." She eyed Sierra with a critical stare as the vampire tried her best to keep her already raging temper from flaring up again. "Are you Harmonian?"

"Ahh…no, actually. I am from the Outlands, far away from this region. Nash and I met in Caleria," Sierra replied, recounting in her mind the complicated history she and Nash had invented for her.

"Hmm…" Lena mumbled, eyeing Sierra's wispy silver hair and deep ruby eyes. "Your children would be considered first class citizens under Harmonian law."

"Hey, wait," Nash interjected. "Who said anything about children? Try to understand guys…it was the right time and the right place to get married. We weren't thinking about the future…"

"Right time, right place?" Lena echoed. "Right person."

Sierra felt Nash's arm slip gently around her waist. "Definitely."

To be continued.
