Onde day...
I dream about that there was a rumor that people would be afraid of having red hair. But not the natural redhead. And yes, the total red, like the petals of a rose, like the color of blood.
They even said that hair dyes that color were scary.
But why?

They told me that...

A prince, vampire, from romantic literature, was madly in love. He had long, shiny, curly black hair. It was so dark it was bluish.
He was elegant, and lived in his castle.
Parties and more parties took place.
Until, he fell in love with a boy, a human, who only with his dubious humor, brown eyes and charm would have enchanted Dracula's icy heart.

But why am I telling you this context, for a simple strand of red hair?

It's simple...

It was 10 o'clock on a festive night.
this boy had been invited to a bar, and the Vampire was present, about to declare himself all over.
He held a bouquet of vibrant red roses.
But when the boy saw Dracula's presence with those flowers, he didn't really know what to do with it.

— My beloved, I brought you flowers. I feel in total shock when I talk to you and I feel the need to love and protect you...

The boy just held those flowers, confused, and was pulled, as if he were people or possible friends pulling him for a walk. But by a mistake, the panicked boy inserted the Rose into Dracula's left eye. He got a sudden fright.

— I'm sorry... I didn't have that intention, please... forgive my past self...

The withered rose from Dracula's eye fell to the ground without any effort. And the Vampire just swallowed his excuses and returned to his Palace, broken, shattered, and bloody...

But what could that be, you ask me...

Days and days passed...
His hair fell out.
His shiny, precious hair fell, and fell, and KEPT FALLING.
The Vampire even thought he was getting bald, old and dusty.
Since he didn't look at himself in mirrors.
But his hair was completely red from the rose.
It was a crimson red.
Red rose petals.
It was vibrant and bright.
and fully curled curls.
this transition was painful.
full of blood.
Pain.
and a broken heart for your loved one.

People thought that completely red hair was a sign that someone had been emotionally hurt, had their heart broken.
And they were afraid since this happened in Vampires.
But those from romantic literature.

I know you want me to tell Dracula's story in full.

— CONNOR — shouted the princess. — YOUR HAIR... — she came close to the prince, in complete shock.

He was scared, afraid of being old, bald or having an unpleasant appearance. But finally he stopped to see the silky strands of red hair.

— Connor...you were hurt... —

The prince remembered what happened in detail, but he didn't want to say it, as he knew the human would be cornered.

— Yes... But I prefer to let it go... —

— But you're bleeding... how long has it been?

—a few long months—

The princess called the entire court Vampires who felt all of Dracula's pain. His left eye won't work like it used to. And permanently, his hair will turn crimson red, as a response to the incident of the rose stuck in his eye, and heart.

Heart?

Yes, the Heart.

Emotionally.

Dracula was murdered due to a lack of empathy and conversation.
In addition to being raped with his favorite flower.

Connor married the princess, who in turn fell in love with Dracula. And he decided to give love a chance again.
Even though he was hurt, he accepted this love. And try to love the same way he loved everyone who ever came across him.
But would this be the end of the tale?

No.

The princess brushes her red hair, and realizes that the shine his hair would have would be a golden shine.
As if there was gold in your hair.
It was sad, but it was the most beautiful hair you could have.

How would he have gold on his head?

He doesn't have it, but it was his form of acceptance.
Accepting that wound, and the side effect,
The Vampire had to deal with that injury.
And it transformed your strands of hair into the real meaning of self-love.
Its red strands like a rose.
Shining gold.
