I struggled to find the words. “I-it was honestly hard. It felt like I was taken to a place and lost. The trees I thought were still turned out to be moving, and the water I thought was drinkable was actually poison. Everything felt strange.”

“Don’t you feel superior now that you're a vampire?”

I looked at him, but his eyes remained fixed straight ahead.

I looked away as well. “If I were given the choice between dying or becoming a vampire… I wouldn’t hesitate to choose death.”

“I see. Do you b

    It was all good until I realized where we were heading. I had hoped we’d take a path through the woods or somewhere with trees since Brix brought a horse instead of a car.“Are you sure this is the way, Brix?” I asked, hoping he had another plan.“What?”“We’re riding horses on the highway?” I asked in disbelief.He laughed. “So?”“Are you serious?” I started to panic—he didn’t look like he was joking. “Can we even ride horses on a highway filled with modern vehicles?”He laughed even louder, completely unfazed by my concern. “This isn't our real destination. But you lied. You haven't eaten, so we're stopping to eat first. Our destination is still a bit far.”I swallowed hard. “L-let’s just go back to the mansion…”“Too late…”We were already on the highway.Shit.I just leaned my head against Brix’s back in embarrassment. Wasn’t he embarrassed? We looked like we’d stepped out of a historical film and ended up in the modern world.“Where do you want to eat?” Brix asked.“Anywhere. As

    “You once told me that someday, I might regret meeting you.” That was the moment he faced me. There was a melancholic feeling in his eyes as he looked at me. His hand was still resting on my waist. “It’s starting…”I couldn’t do anything but be consumed by his gaze.Moments later, Brix let go of me and sat down, shaking his head. He took a deep breath before turning to me.“Wait here. I’ll just get something from the barn,” he said before standing and walking away toward a nearby storage shed. His hands were tucked into the pockets of his sweatpants as he walked, head lowered.I was left staring blankly at the dark sky.What does that even mean? I don’t understand. Did I succeed in reaching him?If that’s the case… then why am I not happy at all?Brix returned shortly after and told me to sit down, which I did. We sat facing each other. I was suddenly reminded of what happened behind the Mansion—that time with the fireflies. This scene somehow reminded me of that.Brix showed me a can

    Brix came back and sat beside me on the bench. We remained silent. Neither of us dared to break the silence for several minutes. Both of us just stared blankly at the flowers in the garden.I let out a heavy sigh and fiddled with my fingers.“She’ll get home safely,” Brix finally said.“I’m sorry, Master Brix…” I whispered.He didn’t respond.“I admit it—you scared me to death,” I added in a low voice, so soft it was nearly carried away by the wind. “I can’t lose her… or anyone else… because of me. I can’t blame you. You did that to remind me of my place in this story. I’ve crossed the line so many times, said things I shouldn't have. And for that…” I bit my lip. “I’m truly sorry.”This time, I really meant it.“Are you afraid of me now?” he asked.I gave a bitter smile and nodded. “Terrified. I thought I was going to lose my mind from fear. I can take the pain—but when someone close to me gets hurt because of me… it’s a different story.”“Good,” Brix said, standing. “You should be af

    “What?” I asked in confusion. I turned to Erikson, who looked just as puzzled. “If you're taking Erikson with you, then who’s going to watch over me? You know I tend to do reckless things, Master Brix.”Brix paused mid-sip of his drink. His head turned slightly, as if he too was confused.“Why don’t you just bring Master Resty instead?” I suggested. “We probably won’t be starting the preparations for Unus just yet. Besides, I think he’s more useful than Erikson.”Erikson coughed. “Looks like I have something to do right now. I’ll go ahead. Maybe next time, Lady Astra, Master Brix,” he said before turning around and leaving.I looked at Brix. I caught him staring at me, too. He shook his head and then stood up, still holding his drink, and walked away, leaving me behind.I exhaled sharply.“Seriously?” I mumbled.“You are fucking dumb,” I heard Brix mumble as well.I just rolled my eyes.I was about to leave the dining hall when Brix suddenly came back. He stared at me intensely.“You

    “I have another mission after this,” said Brix. “I might leave tomorrow. Don’t do anything stupid again. Just follow what I told you. I know you know what I mean.”I turned to him and stared absentmindedly at his face.“What?” he asked.“You’re handsome, Brix.” That just slipped out.He looked confused. “Now you’re showing affection?”“You’ve always been handsome to me,” I said. “I’m not blind, you know?” I leaned in and he backed away. “You have fans ready to kill for you, eyes that pierce through boundaries, and the ability to make any woman lose her mind with just a touch—or believe they’ve kissed the greatest vampire ever. Truly, a beast.”“What the hell are you saying?” His cheeks turned red, probably from the alcohol. “You’re drunk. Are you done drinking?”“Handsome fool.” I laughed. “Handsome idiot. Damn it, Brixton Wenz Cardinal. You might even be more handsome than Oscar. Lord Severo’s handsome too. You kinda look alike.”Brix just shook his head and took another drink.“Eliy

    Brix stood there and looked down at me like I was just some pathetic crap in his way.“W-What did you just say?” I asked, fists clenched.He let out a heavy sigh and said, “I thought tears could blur your eyesight, not your eardrums. Uhm. I must be missing something here.”I nodded.I helped myself up, brushed off the dirt sticking to me, and faced Brix. His gaze was still serious. I wanted so badly to change that, to wipe the seriousness off his face.“First Evan, and now Celeste...” He shook his head. “How many more warnings do you need to finally learn? You’ll keep hurting yourself if you continue like this.”“Why did you come back?” I asked instead.He simply shrugged.“You look like you just came back,” I said, eyeing his dirty clothes stained with blood. “Weren’t you supposed to report to Lord Severo? Come on, Brix. Lord Severo wants good news from his underdog.”His eyes narrowed at my words, but I didn’t show any sign of fear. I’d already been through the worst—ruining things
