Chapter III
Nightfall approached. Both Nasir and Agron jumped from the window and on to the cold ground. Nasir surely thought their legs would break from jumping off the third floor-but they did not. Nasir never felt such power. Agron ran bolting head; so fast he did not even see him run. Nasir smirked and ran after him. The moonlight was bright, as it shined upon the trees. Both immediately found a stag and killed it-feeding on its blood. Agron knew their bodies craved human blood, but he would not have it. No, enough mortal blood had been shed. No more humans would die, not on his watch. Once satisfied, the two brought another stag back for the others to eat. Laeta smiled at them when the returned inside the inn. Just in time too, the sun was coming up. Thanks to feeding, their fangs shrunk. Red eyes remained, so they did not linger.
"Off to make love again? That is why you two have not been seen am I correct?" Laeta said with a giggle. Agron smirked and replied "Indeed." then threw Nasir on his back carrying him up the stairs. He then slammed the door shut. Laeta giggled once more, and began skinning the stag.
"If we are to be like this forever, does this mean we must part ways with the girls?" Nasir asked when Agron set him down on the bed.
"It might be so." Agron replied sadly with a nod. "Unless we can think of some way to shield our skin from the sun." Agron finished.
Nasir paced the room, thinking hard. A spark then hit, and he raced out of the room and down into the barn. Agron, who was curious, followed. Nasir appeared to be looking through the barns storage room. Finding what he needed, he brought it back up to their room. Agron rolled his eyes and once again followed. Once in the room, Nasir began to go to work.
"Nasir? What exactly came to mind moments ago?" Agron asked, sitting on the bed, watching Nasir work at the small table with two chairs.
"You said that we need something to shield the sun." Nasir replied, ripping the material he found with his knife. Finally, after an hour, Nasir held up two brown cloaks. They appeared to be boar pelts. The cloak was large enough to cover their entire body. The hoods had fringes around the edges. It was a perfect material that did not attract heat. The hood would also cover their red eyes.
"It is not much, but it was the only thought that came to mind. Boar skin does not attract sunlight, but repels it. " Nasir finally said, handing one to Agron.
"Genius, how is it you know this?" Agron replied, trying the cloak on.
"One of the many things I learned from my Dominus." Nasir replied again. "I do not wish to part company from the girls just yet." Nasir added with a frown, watching them laughing outside in the window. Agron smiled warmly, joining him.
"Nor I. We are but newborns, so our eye colour will change. However, that will not be until many a moon." Agron said. Nasir grumbled, clearly not liking that answer.
"Do you think that strange woman was apart of that scheme?" Nasir asked, turning his head to Agron.
"I bet my life on the gods she indeed was." Agron said with anger. "The point no longer matters. We are immortal now Nasir. We will not age, nor die. If we do not drink blood that is the only reason we will die. After becoming demons such as this, I do not think we would be welcomed into the afterlife." Agron continued. "Rather, we will be sent to the underworld." Agron finished.
Nasir hung his head, resting his chin on the window sill. Tears began wilting in his eyes. Agron pulled Nasir into embrace, petting his hair.
"Apologies, I should not have spoken such harsh words." Agron said softly.
"You but speak the truth…" Nasir wailed, more tears streaming down his face.
"Perhaps the gods will take pity. After all, we are victims in this, not the instigator." Agron said, pulling away and wiping Nasir's tears away.
"Yes, I suppose…" Nasir agreed, still hanging his head. Agron cupped Nasir's chin lovingly and raised his head, making eye contact.
"Until such judgement day comes, let us make use of what time has been given." Agron said, kissing Nasir with passion. Nasir moaned, nodding with agreement.
Agron pinned Nasir to the bed, untying his armour and removing his clothes. Nasir groaned, helping Agron out of his clothes and armour too. Naked, and hot, both of their bodies intertwined together. Being immortal had fed their desire to fuck.
Agron kissed down Nasir's chest and his stomach. Finding where he wanted his mouth to rest, he sucked hard and deep on Nasir's manhood. Nasir groaned in pleasure, clawing the bed like an animal. Soon Nasir wanted to return the favour, pushing Agron on his knees. He took all of him in his mouth, sucking deeply. Agron groaned lowly, tussling Nasir's hair in his grasp. The girls giggling outside ceased and they began eating, but Agron and Nasir didn't notice. After an hour of messing about, Agron pushed himself inside Nasir and moved fast and deep. Both groaned in ecstasy, their bodies high on pleasure. Agron had Nasir in every corner of the room. From against the window, to the floor, on the table, and back on to the bed. Finally, they cried out in release, falling into one another's arms on the bed. Love making had cleared their minds. They knew that as long as they had one another, they could face the 100+ years to come. They were ready to spend an eternity together.
The Next Day…
It was time to move on. After spending two days in the comfort of the Village, Agron and the group were on the move once more. Covered by Nasir's cloak, Agron felt at ease around the girls. He also began to notice that Sybil had been acting strange since they left the Village. She appeared pale, and frequently took naps on one of the followers carts. He turned to Laeta and asked what was the matter.
"Do you know of Sybil's strange behaviour?" Agron asked.
"I am just in the dark as you Agron. Sybil says she has just been exhausted from the long journey. However, I do not think that is so." Laeta replied, watching Sybil dosing off on the cart. Agron turned to look too, then replied.
"So if it is not fatigue, what do you think it could be?" Agron asked again.
"Well….She may be with child." Laeta said, tripping on a stone, to which she caught herself.
"W-With child?" Agron replied with surprise, and anxiety. This could not happen at a worse time. Agron and Nasir's bloodlust had not calmed itself. Fresh blood of a child would only make it worse than it already been.
"You are certain of this?" Agron asked, anxiety still showing.
"Not certain….yet…She and Gannicus made love before they parted. Perhaps seed had taken hold." Laeta replied. "If it is so, I think it is a blessing." Laeta added with a grin.
"Uhh, yes, of course." Agron replied. In truth, it was a nightmare. Agron only hoped both he and Nasir could keep their bloodlust under control. At least until they reached the end of the Rhine River, where they and the girls would part.
