Astraea Juniper and Éresme had been traveling the whole night. They had just 5 hours left until they could get to Paris Juniper was sitting asleep in her seat Astraea could not sleep like always.
Astraea was confused about her feelings for Éresme she felt like she could not trust him completely after all he was a vampire he was probably trying to get something out of her and Juniper and when he was done with the two of them he was going to kill them.
But she feels very attracted to him, maybe it was all on the charisma that all vampires have, or maybe.
It was the way his hair sometimes falls on his face or the way he is always touching his lips when he looks at her or the way he looks at her she could not understand how those Icy blue eyes could make her feel so... warm.
Éresme was asleep so she could admire him just a little closer, she never thought that she would see a vampire with red cheeks and lips his skin was so perfect too it was pale but a little red in some areas.He was beautiful. It was almost sinful how beautiful he was.
"Bonjour..."- Éresme said softly he was still half asleep-" Why are you awake Cherie? Is something bothering you?"- Astraea rolled her eyes- "Do you really care?"-Éresme looked at her with an annoyed look- "Oh Darling there is no need to be so rude early in the morning"- He said in a very soft voice, but he had a grin in lips, he was clearly teasing her.
Éresme loved teasing Astraea. She was so easy to tease, so easy to annoy, he liked playing with her, they only knew each other for a few days but he liked her, and he thought she was gorgeous.
He liked making her blush, he liked seeing her brown skin slowly turn into a deep red, He liked her lips he thought they looked like a heart, he liked the way her curly hair had some deep red highlights, and her eyes... her eyes were an innocent shade of Hazel, but also those eyes could see through everyone. They were dangerously innocent.
If only he wasn't the thing she wanted to kill, maybe things would be different, maybe if he was a normal human or a wiccan like her, things between them would never happen."So..."- Astraea said softly.
"So...."-Éresme also said softly.
"We still have 5 hours to go"- Astraea said.
"I know... get some sleep, im being serious we we are going to have a long day"- Eresme said still with a grin on his lips
"Fine but i'm going to sleep not because you told me to but because i'm tired-Astraea said annoyed".
Astraea Finally had some sleep.
Hours later...
"Oh mon Dieu, How I missed being in Paris!"- Éresme said he has not been in his home town in a long time.
Astraea and Juniper had endure Eresme's Lifetime Story for almost an hour, Apparently when he was a human he was a stylist for Queen Marie Anttoniete, His dad was a very famous fabric seller in Paris, only Créme de la Créme went to his shop.
And Éresme decided to stay with his dad's company and by the time he was telling how he became a vampire, the three of them had already arrived in Paris.
"Lets go Petites Sorcières"- Éresme said he started to call Astraea and Juniper Petites Sorcières, Little witches in French Astraea. Thought it was cute, Annoying, But cute.
"I have so many plans for us, We are going to see the ballet Tonight, Maybe Tomorrow we can go to the opera, Go eat in a few restaurants and..."- Juniper interrupted- "Éresme we don't have time for all of that i Thought you said that were going to take us were the vampires are"- Éresme Rolled his eyes- "Darling, thats were in taking you, Why do you think i'm taking you to see the Ballet And the Opera?"
They started walking around the París train station, when they got to the exit, Éresme pulled out an Umbrella from one of his many bags, Astraea and Juniper all they could do was stare at him.
"What!? My skin is extremely sensitive to the sun, Don't stare! Come on just move"- Éresme said, It was obvious that he wanted to avoid the sun at all cost, he had on an black long sleeve shirt, gloves and sunglasses that made him look like a bug plus the umbrella.
Astraea giggled, it was a very sweet giggle. Éresme never Thought he would ever make her giggle, she was just so serious and she never Laughed at his jokes or at Juniper jokes she was always in her own little world either reading a book about her witchcraft or listening to music, but she was never giggling or Laughing at ...something in his Eyes, she needed to have more fun.
"I Finally made you Laugh, now tell me what was it, the gloves or the glasses?"- he said with a cocky grin.
"You look like a bug"- She was still giggling.
"Wow Éresme you actually made her Laugh"- Juniper said, a little impressed by the situation, her friend never Laughed.
They finally got to Éresme's Mansion. It was huge. Almost like a mini version of Versalles it was white with golden details in the windows. It was gorgeous, Astraea Thought it was a little too luxurious for her liking. Either way it was beautiful.
When Astraea and Juniper got into the Mansion it was everything they had imagined, golden and white everything with some flowers. It looked so outdated but it was all too fancy and pretty they loved it.
"Okay Sorcières, i will you your rooms, i want Astraea prepared by 6:00 pm we are going to go to the Ballet tonight i have a few friends that might know something"- Éresme said with a soft smile
"What about me!? I'm not leaving her alone"- Juniper said upset.
"There were only 2 seats left... Sorry Darling, let me take the two of you to your rooms."
Astraea Thought that was a way of getting her to be alone with him. She hated the fact that she had to go alone with him, but she would do Anything to find the bastard that killed her parents.
She entered her room, she was so tired of thinking she was so tired of Traveling she felt like she needed to take a really long nap, she got in the bed and slowly started to drift away, her eyes slowly closing until she was finally resting.
