روايات وقصص ضمن And I'll Follow You Into The Dark

“It's not like that. It's not something you can get rid of. It's part of me; it's my other half. It's who and what I am. Don’t you see, I am the darkness! To get rid of it would be to get rid of me. I'm no good for you. I will only cause you pain and suffering. I am the darkness! I'm the monster everyone's afraid of. I'm the beast in the dark that children have nightmares of. I am the evil from the depths of hell and will only snuff out your light, little angel. You and I can never be together!” He said with a deep and rough voice. Smoke seeped from his body again, and a dark aura rose from his body like a shadow looming over her.

My eyes fall shut, trying to keep the tears at bay. “I accepted the path of darkness for myself. I’m a vampire,” Lucas continues. “That’s what we are. That’s what’s inside of us. Darkness.” He slips one hand under me, and my heart swells in my chest. “I believed I could never be anything but dark. I let it consume me, and I told myself that’s how things were meant to be.

I looked at him and shook my head slightly. “There you are, my shadow,” I said. “Just so you know, I’m taking Lucian on a little adventure.” Adrian’s mouth curved into a faint smile. “Sounds fun.”

I heard her beautiful voice in the dark. “I left the closet open, go ahead and put your shoes and whatever else in there so you can find it easily later. I’ll come find you baby,” I said. I walked through the room, holding the wall as a guide and found her, holding her hands out, already reaching for me. I took her hand and it was soft, little and perfect. Make her comfortable Derek, be cool. “I really want to make sure you’re okay with this Eve, I know how it must look. I can’t really imagine what you must be thinking of me, honestly.

But this t ime for each other. For the life we’d steal back. One step at a time. Into the dark. Toward the light.

“Stay with me. I’ll carry you through the dark. I’ll carry you until we find the light.” And the night pressed close, holding its breath, waiting to see if I could keep that promise.

“You’re not walking into that thing alone.” “You can’t follow me.” “I will.” She hesitated—just long enough to brush her fingers along his jaw. “Then try to keep up.” And she stepped into the dark. The roots closed behind her. *** OMG Kaela what are you doing?! ***
