– So we make people’s wishes come true, right? – asked she looking through the window.
– Not exactly. We help them to reach their dreams. – told he sitting next to her.
– Ah, okay. I see now. – said she touching his hand slowly.
He looked at her with deep eyes of philosopher and dreamer.
‘I remember you such a little girl. Innocent child of light.. Forgive me that I turned you into a beast.. I had no choice. You were meant to be.. You are the one.’
‘But why? What is so special about me? Why me?’
‘You will get to know soon.. very soon.’
Their thought connection became stronger day by day. She couldn’t control that anymore and she could hear every his thought. It was so strange and unusual but his emotions and thoughts made her comfort.
Even through the distance so far. They had a connection so special.
– I am always here to ease your suffering in this. Even being far away from you I’m always here, right behind you. Watching you. – said he embracing her and kissing her forehead.
Kaija blushed in his arms. She knew him for ages but every time she had that strange feeling she couldn’t explain.
Thinking about it all she fell asleep in his arms. Teller was slowly stroking her hair and breathed her scent.
Nightmares were gone for a while but then..
” … blood again. It’s everywhere… I cannot breathe.. Thirst. I’m hungry… I want this.. only one sip. One drop.. give it to me, I’m burning with desire. Please, let me drink. Feed me…”
She groaned and sat in bed. She felt unusually weird.
– I think we have a problem. – said Kaija looking at Teller. Her lips were covered with blood and she showed him her fangs.
– No, it’s a part of transformation. – nodded he. Teller was always so calm and serious that made him so wise and patient.
– A part of transformation? I am not a human anymore, am I? – asked she confusingly.
– No. We all are not anymore. It’s the first level or step.
– I am afraid. – whispered she with tears in her eyes.
– Don’t be. You’ll feel better soon… Now you can feed… if you’re hungry and want a sip.. – smiled he embracing her so she could feel his scent, his heartbeat…
