Chapter three: A vampire who fell in love with a mortal through a dream
Gregory Sackville-Bagg. Eldest son of Frederick and Freda Sackville-bagg, Older brother Rudolph and Anna, and led his family to freedom by going to through the forbidden grounds of their home; The Labyrinth.
Gregory would always take a risk when it comes to his family and his fellow vampires. Sometimes, being the oldest in his family can be troublesome, especially watching over his younger siblings.
He has everything he could ask for, but something was missing in his life.
Being a vampire has it perks and living in a castle is amazing.
But…
Deep inside, Gregory feels a dark empty void inside of him that his family could fill.
He's not sure what it is, but he hopes to figure it out.
All of that changed when he fell asleep in his room as the sun was coming up.
In his dream,
Gregory was sitting down in the forest all alone in darkness. He loved the night, but being in a place where darkness is everywhere could be quite sad and lonely sometimes.
"It gets lonely being in the dark by yourself…." Gregory whispers to himself as he looks down at the ground sadly. Gregory would never show weakness or sadness on the outside, but he shows it in his dreams.
Gregory held his knees together and put his head down in sadness. He was going to stay like this until he heard a voice right next to him.
"Excuse me!" A feminine voice said to him.
Gregory looks up a couldn't believe what he saw.
It was a girl who was his age standing right next to him. Her long black hair reminded him of the night, her eyes were blues like the ocean, her light skin looked pure and glowing as if the moon gave her soft sweet kisses. The girl is wearing an elegant white lace victorian short sleeve dress with white ballet flats.
"Is she a moon goddess?" Gregory thought to himself as he looks at the girl.
"I'm sorry to interrupt. I spotted you sitting here sadly by yourself, so I thought maybe I could join you?" The female said to Gregory with a care in her eyes.
This was the first time another person is in his dream.
Gregory nods as a yes which made the girl smile. Gregory blushed a little as the girl sat down beside him.
Gregory smells her scent and became even more surprised.
"She's a mortal!" Gregory thought to himself as he clenched his fist. He felt confused and bewildered as he looks at the female mortal.
"I don't understand…Why am I not attacking her?" Gregory asks himself in his thoughts as frowned a bit in confusion.
"What is a boy like you doing in a place full of darkness?" The female asks him out of curiosity and care.
Gregory gotten out of his head when she asked him that question.
"It's none of your business mortal..." Gregory said to the female in a defensive state. Gregory heard her scoff and realized she was glaring at him.
"I understand that were only strangers, but that doesn't give you the right to have a greater than thou attitude to me!" The female said to him in a feisty attitude.
For some reason, seeing the girl look annoyed and irritated made Gregory laugh. His laughter confused the girl.
Gregory stops laughing a recollects himself before speaking to the female mortal.
"My apologies. Just seeing you be angry at me made me laugh." Gregory explains to the mortal girl.
"I haven't laugh like this in ages." Gregory said to the girl which made her feel annoyed.
"I'm glad to see that my anger made you laugh." The female mortal said to him in a sarcastic manner.
"It's quite adorable actually…" Gregory said to the female as he smiled at her. The female felt her heart beat a bit fast and her cheeks felt hot for no reason.
"As for your question, It's where I'm able to brood in darkness never knowing what I'm missing.." Gregory explains to the female mortal as he looks at the dark forest in front of him. This caught the female mortals attention as she felt sympathy for Gregory.
"I can agree…I use to be the same way." The female mortal said to him with a sad smile on her face.
"This mortal is the same as me?" Gregory thought to himself as he looks at the female mortal.
"Then I realized, you need to have a little light in the darkness…" The female mortal said to him which surprised him in a way.
"Their is no light inside a person like me. Only darkness…" Gregory explains to the female mortal as he chuckles sadly knowing that a vampire like him would never have light inside.
"Everyone has a light shining inside of them. Especially you…" The female mortal said to him with a warm smile on her face as she looks at him with care in her eyes. The female looks at the dark forest in front of her and began to sing.
There's a world…
There's a world I know~
A place we can go..
Where the pain will go away~
Gregory was in a trance as the female mortal sing to him.
There's a world
Where the sun shines each day~
The female mortal stood up and the forest began to light up with fireflies. The female mortal began to walk into the dark forest as the fireflies continue to appear and light up the place. Gregory slowly stood up and began to follow behind her.
"She's like a siren pulling me in with her beautiful voice."Gregory thought to himself as he listen to her sing and his forest lights up with fireflies.
There's a world...
There's a world out there~
I'll show you just where...
And in time I know you'll see~
There's a world where we can be free~
The female mortal stops at the middle of the dark forest, turns around and faces Gregory. She held her hand out to him and smiled as the fireflies that surrounds her became an area filled with light.
Gregory covered his face as the light shines around the female mortal and backs away a bit as she continue to sing to him.
Come with me~
Gregory slowly removes his hands from his face as the flash of light didn't burn him to death.
Come with me~
Gregory looks at the female mortal and hesitate to be in the light with her.
There's a world where we can be free~
Gregory slowly puts his hand into the light but hesitates once more. Gregory looks at the female mortal and couldn't help but be blown away by her angelic smile as she still held her hand out for him.
Come with me~
Gregory slowly takes the mortal's hand and felt her pull him into her embrace as the light surrounded them.
Gregory didn't feel pain nor agony. Instead, he felt warm and dare he say it….love…
It was as if the dark void inside him filled up because of the mortal hugging him. The mortal gave Gregory a bit of space between them and looks at him with the same warm smile on her face.
"See! Their is a light deep inside of you. No matter how much darkness you drown yourself in." The mortal told Gregory in a caring tone of voice that made him feel content and happy inside. He notice the mortal looking at him weirdly.
"Is their something wrong?" Gregory asks the mortal as he tries to find out why she is staring at him for.
"Your eyes…" The mortal replies to him in an awe reaction.
"What about my eyes?" Gregory asks her in confusion.
"Their beautiful. It's as if I'm looking at a pair of Ruby's shinning down at me." The mortal said to Gregory as she compliments his red eyes.
"Nobody never said that to me before.." Gregory said to the mortal as he began to smile sincerely at her.
For once in his entire undead life, he found what he was looking for. He was looking for someone to make him feel love and for him to return love back.
Mortal or not, she is the one that makes him feel complete. He wants to protect her, cherish her and…love her.
Gregory holds the mortal by her waist with his left hand, puts his right hand on her left cheek which made her flinch in coldness.
He chuckles at her adorable reaction knowing that he would feel a bit cold to the mortal.
Gregory looks at her lip, leans in slowly and kisses her.
"Her lips feel as if they were meant for me.." Gregory thought to himself as he continue to kiss her.
He felt the mortal kissing him back as it created a spark of sensational bliss knowing that she felt the same way.
Gregory knew from that day, the mortal was his and he was hers until…
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
He woke up from his younger brother banging on his coffin loudly.
"GREGORY WAKE UP!" Rudolph shouts to him through his coffin.
Gregory opens his coffin to see his little brother floating in front of him happily.
"Finally! I thought you would never wake up!" Rudolph said to him as he crossed his arms in front of his chest.
Gregory looks at his brother and smiles softly towards him.
"Thanks for waking me up little brother.." Gregory said to Rudolph as he ruffles his hair.
Rudolph got rid of his hand and became annoyed.
"I just fixed my hair Brother!" Rudolph said to him as he tries to fix the damage his brother created.
"Give up little Brother! Your hair is a lost cause!" Gregory said to his brother with a genuine smile on his face which was rare for the others to see.
"Are you ok Brother? You look rather….Happy today?" Rudolph asks his older brother out of shock.
Gregory remembers his dream and felt warm inside his cold body.
"I guess I am little Brother." Gregory replies to Rudolph as he flies out of his room to feed from one of the cows.
As Gregory was flying to his destination, he looks at the moon and smiles as it reminds him of his lovely Moon Goddess.
"I hope to see you in my dreams again…My Love…" Gregory said out loud in a soft tone of voice as he looks at the moon.
Since then,
He would enter his dreams and would romanticize and seduce his lovely Nightingale in the places he would create for the two of them.
As each day pass by, Gregory would get to see a different side to her as he sweeps her off her feet with his charms.
He knew she was real because of their connection they have until the day he found her in the forest by the lake singing as their eyes met for the very first time in real life.
AR: What do you think? How will the two of them interact? Will Gregory sweep Violeta off her feet like he does in their dreams together? Will their family prevent that from happening? How will they react towards each other's family.
Until Next time!
