Chapter Ten

Decades earlier…

"Demetri, I know how to do this. It's not hard" she says, rolling her eyes. "Yes, you know how to hunt. I know, Emmy. But you can't get caught" I say. She ignores me, looking for her next victim. She sees a man following a young teenager. She rushes towards him swiftly. She goes in the alleyway and jumped onto his back.
"Run," she told the teenager. It was too dark for a human to see our eyes. The girl's eyes went wide and she began to run. When she was out of sight, she bit his flesh. He managed to knick her with the knife in his pocket before dying. She swore under her breath. I grabbed her wrist to see her wound. It wasn't so bad but the blood wouldn't stop. Not thinking, I put my mouth over the wound and licked it tenderly. Vampire saliva has some sort of thing to heal wounds. She watched me with wide eyes. When the wound healed, I stopped. I looked up at her.
She pulled her hand away. "Thanks" she said softly, not looking at me. I tipped her chin up and she looked at me with those beautiful crimson eyes. My fingers touched the blond and brown ringlets in her hair. And I kissed her for the very first time. I loved her from the moment she stepped foot in our home, Volterra. Her eyes were open but slowly, she closed them. I pulled away first, very slowly. She looked at me, her eyes full of love. And I knew that we were meant to be together forever.

Note: Sorry it's short again but I promise I'll write a longer one next time. Hope you like this one.
