My Vampire Husband Thought I Was Jealous, but I Was Dying Chapter 13
Adrian's POVElena died the day I reached the sea.The owner said she'd only fallen asleep.She sat in the chair, facing the sea, the unfinished sketchbook still on her knees.The lines on the paper were faint, not yet formed.They were like the last stretch of her life, light enough to scatter at a breath.It was only when I lifted her that I found she'd already gone utterly cold.After a human dies, the warmth fades little by little.Yet I stubbornly held her tight all the same, wanting to feel that warmth from before.I said to her:“It's all right. I've come.”“Wake up.”“Elena…”I heard my own weeping without even knowing it.“I was wrong. Elena, won't you forgive me? I'm begging you, don't frighten me like this.”“I love you. I loved you long ago.”She didn't answer me.The waves came rolling in, one after another.At last I understood that she probably no longer wanted to hear me say it.It's all right.How absurd.Every bad thing in her life had begun with those words of mine.
My Vampire Husband Thought I Was Jealous, but I Was Dying Chapter 12
Elena's POVAfter I left the Prince's estate, I thought I'd soon hear his announcement of the divorce.Maybe there'd be news of his marriage to Clara, too.After all, before we set out for the banquet that day, he'd told me to my face that he would marry her once we divorced.But a week passed, and no word came.The street papers carried news of the Prince's territory now and then.Council meetings.Territorial tours.The hunting down of the remaining hunters.Every item had to do with Adrian.But not one mentioned divorce or remarriage.At first I was a little puzzled.Later I stopped looking when I passed the newsstands.It didn't matter anymore.Whether he announced the divorce, whoever he married, it had nothing to do with me now.All I wanted now was to live this one day well.I'd locked my old phone in a drawer.The past few days it kept ringing in the middle of the night.Again and again.The ringtone came through the drawer, jarring in the quiet room.I didn't open the drawer t

Adrian's POVIt was already night by the time the trail turned up.She'd bought a ticket to the sea.When I saw the name of that little seaside town, I went completely still.I remembered it.When we were newly married, she'd mentioned it.She'd set the travel brochure in front of me then, her eyes bright.Yet she was afraid I'd refuse too, so her manner stayed careful, almost timid.She said there was a sea there, and a gallery she loved.She said if the sun was too strong in the daytime, we could go on an overcast day.I turned only two pages before setting the brochure back on the table.“There's no need.”“A honeymoon is only a formality.”She faltered, smiled awkwardly, and still couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes.I'd been reading documents on the affairs of the Prince's territory at the time.I said nothing more.In the end our honeymoon became a tour of the territory.She accompanied me to meet those nobles and elders, attended one banquet after another.Outsiders all

Adrian's POVIt was already dusk the next day when the test results came back.The steward stood in the study, his face grim.I took the report, and my fingers froze after only a few lines.That half a pill was no ordinary painkiller.It was a powerful scent suppressant.The kind made to mask the smell of failing blood, diseased organs, and the abnormal odor a human gives off in the late stages of a terminal illness.Taken in excess over a long time, it would only hasten the body's collapse.I stared at those few lines.For a long while I said nothing.The steward's voice was so low it was nearly inaudible.“Lord Adrian, Madam may have been ill for a long time.”Ill for a long time.As those words landed, the air in the study seemed to turn cold.But I was a vampire.I wasn't supposed to feel the cold.“What do you mean?”I heard my own voice.Low, and unfamiliar.The steward bowed his head.“I had it looked into.”“Madam had been to a human hospital.”“The diagnosis was bloodline fail
My Vampire Husband Thought I Was Jealous, but I Was Dying Chapter 9
Adrian's POVThe first night after Elena left, I didn't go to Clara.I didn't go to the Council to deal with business either.I sat in the great hall of the estate and listened to the wind outside the windows the whole night through.In the past, when Elena was home, I rarely came back.I'd always thought the place was too quiet.And always thought there was something too stubborn in the way she looked at me.She was always waiting for me.In the dining room, outside the study, in the bedroom.Sometimes I came back very late and her eyes were already heavy with sleep, yet she'd still lift her head the moment she heard my footsteps.“Adrian, you're back.”Back then I only nodded.I assumed she would always be there.So I never thought there was anything particular about those words.But now she was gone.The whole estate had suddenly become empty enough to set me on edge.The steward asked if I wanted the car brought round.I nodded, thinking I did still have business to attend to.Yet
My Vampire Husband Thought I Was Jealous, but I Was Dying Chapter 8
Elena's POVAfter leaving the Prince's estate, I sat at the station the whole night through.The wound on my arm had mostly stopped bleeding.Only the place where the silver had grazed me still burned faintly.I pulled my shawl tight and counted the cash I had on me.It wasn't much, but for someone about to die, it was enough.In the end, I spent what I had on the cheapest ticket to the sea.The clerk asked, “Will you be needing a return ticket, ma'am?”I paused.Then I shook my head.“One way is enough.”The truth was, I'd wanted to go to the sea for a long time.Before the engagement, Adrian had been endlessly tender with me, telling me to get ready in advance for our honeymoon.After the wedding I wavered for ages before settling on a little seaside town in the south of the human world.There was a long white beach there.A blue sea.And a gallery right at the water's edge.Many of the artists I loved had been born there, and I'd always wanted to see it.Back then I'd tucked the bro
