Chapter 9

Soul mates

Author's POV

Selin opened eyes and found herself in an empty room with dirty grey walls. Pain didn't leave her but she found powers to get up. It was strange; someone washed off her blood and processed it with the best antiseptic for vampires – cows' blood. Headache was awful! Selina rubbed her temple and looked around. No windows, just a dilapidated door. She heard someone coming and prepared to fight until death. The door opened and familiar person came in.

"Van Helsing!" – She whispered in great surprise. Yes, it was he, in his cowboy-looking hat.

"How's your head?" – He asked friendly and walked closer. Sel stepped back and hissed angrily.

"That isn't very nice. I saved your life for the second time.

"Saved? I hit my head, when you trying 'to save me', Mr. Hero!"

"I'm very sorry. Now, information."

Selina gave him contemptuous glance:

"I won't tell you anything, human!"

Her fangs and evil smile looked very aggressive! Van Helsing shook head:

"So, want to fight? You're too weak now. But, speak! Or, maybe you want to come back to the pub?"

Selin growled on him but agreed. She really was weak for fighting but didn't want to show it. Her story longed for fifteen minutes, and then Sel breathed in heavily and said:

"What would be next?"

Gabriel took his long wooden stake and said calmly:

"Fly away. Heal your wound completely."

Selina didn't need his help neither his pity about her wound.

"Not this time, mortal!" – She shouted and prepared for attack.

"As you wish."

They started fighting each other. Selin hadn't got any weapon and used her nature power. Van Helsing was very strong and fast enemy but he had never seen such stubborn and irritated vampire. Their struggle soon moved to the street, because room was too small for them. It was still night, cool and quiet. Moonlight lit Selina's fangs and Gabriel's arbalest.

"Don't want to give up?" – Hunter asked tired vampire.

"In your dreams!"

Finally Gabriel made a riposte with stake but Sel caught his wrist above brown glove and…

Warm and beautiful light surrounded them… Sensation of absolute tranquility filled their hearts… Warriors looked around with surprise and even fear, but didn't release each other not to lose this tranquility... Her amber eyes met his brown orbs and found complicity and sweet tender mixed with curiosity and astonish in them…

'What's happening?' – He asked … telepathically!.. Their vicinity was even closer than they thought!.. They could read each others' mind and soul in fact!..

'Are you a telepath?' – Selina asked; as it was her only hope that this strange phenomenon is not what she was thinking about. This thought was blocked and hidden in her mind too good for even him to read it.

'No, I'm not. Where is this light from?'

'I don't know. And … You lost your memory?'

'Yes. As you?..'

'That's why you working on the Holy Order?'

'That's my life! You like your job, too?'

'We're akin. But I don't like it at all!' – Selina shouted in her mind. Gabriel didn't remain in debt:

'No, the difference is that I'm a normal man and you just a second-rate vampire. I killed hundreds of yours.'

'I know. That's why I haven't future. Turned vampires are not less than servants for nobility. We're hollow: no enjoy, no sorrow, no mercy.' – Sel said sadly. Van Helsing squeezed her hands lovingly:

'That's not true. I know you have heart! I saw how you worried about your friends!'

'Oh, human, you made me redden! But, thanks.'

'Not at all. It was Dracula, who turned you?'

'Hey! How did you get there! Not to my memory!' – She threw him out immediately. Night with Dracula was only hers.

'Sorry. I didn't want to hurt you.'

'Alright, calm down. Why do I feel protected with you? Strange.'

'Me, too. You're not like the other vampires …'

'That's only because you don't know other vampires as persons.' – Selina smiled and looked at the sky. The sunrise was close, but she didn't want to leave. Gabriel noticed it and said:

'You must go now. O.K., lets release each other when I'll count to three. One, two, … three!'

They almost jumped back gracefully and were standing at least five minutes breathing heavily like after fast running.

"So, I …?" – Vampire asked in normal way.

"Yeah, goodbye." – said Gabriel still trying to calm down. The light left them so fast and problems filled their minds. Selina flew home, and hunter watched her flying, thinking to himself: 'We'll meet again, Miss Selin Kale. Even if we both don't want.'
