My Vampires

Chapter 34

Ever since that snowy Christmas Day, Vlad and I became a couple. We just quietly spent time together. 1just finished up work at the mansion and I was happily walking down the hallway. Vlad and I promised to have a date tonight after I was done with work. I can't wait! The light shining in through the windows called out to me and I shifted my gaze outside.

Kira
"It's a crescent moon tonight..."

The pale crescent moon reminded me of that night...

Flashback
Nicholas
"What are you doing there?"

Kira
"...Who's there?"  "Pardon. Do you know how to open this door? I'm trying to get back to the musée."

Nicholas
"What's that? 'Get back?' You're not telling me you came through that door?"

Flashback Ends

It was on the night of a crescent moon that I first came to this world. I spent a month here and then the door to my own world closed, keeping me here.  And then I found Vlad. It felt like every time something major happened to me, it happened on the night of a crescent moon. 1had a feeling that something major would happen tonight, too. Just then, I felt someone stand beside me.

Nicholas
"...I always think of the night when you first came to the mansion when there's a crescent moon."

Kira
"...Napoleon."

The moonlight reflected in his clear emerald eyes as he spoke softly.

Nicholas
"Can I ask you something?"

Kira
"Sure. What is it?" 

Nicholas
"Have you ever regretted coming here?"

Kira
"No. Because..."  "I think it was my destiny to come here."

Nicholas
"Heh. Sounds like something you'd say. It's not bad."

Nicholas's eyes softened tenderly as he looked at me. 

Nicholas
"You're going to see him tonight, aren't you? Be careful on your way there."

Kira
*I will. Thanks, Nicholas."

...I'm leaving now.

Carlos
"Hm? Where's le Voivode? A patient gave me some strawberries and I was going to serve them for dessert."

Flynn
"Lord Vlad went to go get Kira. And pushed all the chores onto us, of course."

Flynn frowned as he watered the plants. Carlos looked at him and murmured...

Carlos
"...Hey, Docteur. Do you think that Kira will stay with Lord Vlad forever?"

Flynn
"..."  "I don't know. Human's emotions change like the phases of the moon." "But...I think the only person who could ever be a suitable companion for a pure-blooded vampire is someone like Kira."

Carlos looked relieved to hear that and reached down to touch a rose.

Carlos
"And we're the only ones who could keep them company."  "Because.....we're flowers that will never
wilt."

~~~~~~~~
Vlad and I spent a quiet night together on top of a hill that was carpeted with red roses. Suddenly remembered a question I'd been wanting to ask him for a long time now.

Kira
"Hey, Vlad."

Vlad
"Yes?"

Kira
"That day when you let go of my hand... Remember how you were going to erase my memories of you?"
