I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw you lying there, wrapped in blankets and refusing to meet my gaze. Your breathing was heavy, strained, as if the weight of the world rested on your chest. And then I saw it - that cruel mark on your neck, a bite that didn't belong to me.
My heart twisted with anger and sorrow in equal measure. How dare someone take what was mine without permission? How dare they violate you in such a way? They would pay dearly for their transgression; of that much I was certain.
But as I looked into your eyes, searching for answers or solace, all I found was guilt staring back at me. Guilt and shame etched into every line of your face. My sweet love... What had been done to you?
I knelt beside you then, running my fingers through your hair with tenderness born from centuries of devotion. "Who did this to you?" My voice was low but laced with fury beneath its calm surface.
You hesitated before whispering a name - an old acquaintance who had come seeking refuge from his own demons only to betray us both in the cruelest manner possible.
In that moment, as rage coursed through my veins like liquid fire, I made a vow: no one would harm you again while under my protection. No one would lay claim to what belonged solely to me.
And so we sat there together in silence - two souls bound by blood and love alike - plotting our revenge against those who dared threaten our fragile peace once more.
For now though... For now we simply clung together like lost children adrift on an endless sea of darkness and uncertainty...sweetheart...
