Chapter Two- Love is blind
Michael dipped his quill into the dark ink he soon wrote his soul to her.
My world is embraced by the beauty of your twilight
A princess of empty streets, an outcast of day
Bared smiles gleaming in the adamant moonlight
I'm desperately fighting my family, princess
Thy immortal kiss and caressing embrace
And yet, in the end, I'm loving to thee
Thou the innocent lamb which carries my sins
Thou gives my life reason though I'm falling from grace
As my angel of love is setting me free
Please come away with me Elisabeth I care not of what my family says but what my heart says. I love you more than life itself.
Forever yours,
Michael
He sealed it with his family ring and wax and slid it under the door of the servant's quarters. Yes Michael was in love with a servant girl and he begged his parents to let him love her and have them love her as well. They simply scoffed at his love for Elisabeth.
He knew that the only way was to leave with his dear love and hopefully in due time she would accept a proposal of marriage.
"I love thee and let me fly like the dove ever so high my dear Michael." Elisabeth whispered still not coming out of her quarters. Michael smiled sighing he whispered as well.
"Oh my sweet dove flies away with me. Thou art a vision my bright angel dove. Who tells me sweet tender nestlings of in thy heart spread thy wings and we shall be rid of this cage."
She opened the door and clung to him.
"We must move quickly, my love for my mother and father shall return at a quarter till mid afternoon."
"Where are we to go?" Elisabeth asked.
"Where ever my angel dove desires." He said plainly.
"I have always wanted to venture east to Romania; the place of my birthright." Elisabeth laughed as she was tickled by an invisible force of fun and adventure.
"Of course my love it is done." His sly grin etching across his face picturing all that was good in his life at that moment and soon it would all slip away from him in the blink of a vampiric eye.
