Engfa and Charlotte were huddled together on the furry blanket in front of the warm flames of the fireplace. Charlotte's head rested on Engfa's chest, while Engfa gently stroked Charlotte's shoulders with his fingertips. The silence was blended with the crackling of the fire in the room.

Suddenly a faint smile appeared on Charlotte's lips. She began to smile to herself.

Engfa lifted Charlotte's head slightly from her chest and asked with a curious smile, "Why are you laughing, darling?"

Charlotte shrugged slightly, turning her eyes to Engfa. "Tonight... it was so incredible," she said, a twinkle of happiness in her eyes. "It was like everything was exactly as it was meant to be. I've never felt so happy and complete. Feeling you like this... made me feel like the luckiest person in the world."

Engfa was filled with love when he heard Charlotte's words and gave her a small kiss on the lips. "Being with you is an indescribable happiness for me too. Tonight is just the beginning, my love. We will have many more memories together."

Charlotte took a deep breath and leaned her head back onto Engfa's chest. "I know," she said peacefully. "And I can't wait to share every moment with you."

Charlotte, lost in thought in the silence, suddenly raised her head from Engfa's chest and said with a slight smile, "I never thought that one day I would be sealed into a witch and become her." Her voice was calm, but there was a slight sense of surprise in it.

Engfa smiled and looked into Charlotte's face. "I never thought I'd have a vampire mate either," he said, running his hands gently through Charlotte's hair. "With the rules and expectations in the realms, I always assumed we'd end up with someone of our own bloodline. But here we are... and with you, I feel like nothing could be more right."

Charlotte smiled at Engfa's words. "It's obvious that fate has drawn us on a different path. With so many conflicts between vampires and witches from history, I... always thought that I would end up with someone according to my family's wishes. But now, thanks to this seal, I realized... that you are the one."

Engfa took a deep breath, her eyes shining with compassion. "I've thought similar things. It's like my whole life, something was missing. I was always told I would become a powerful witch queen, but I've never felt so complete. Until I met you."

Charlotte leaned back into Engfa's chest and murmured, "Our realms may be different, but our hearts are one. And that is stronger than anything."

Engfa nodded slightly in agreement. "Yes, neither the rules of the realms nor the expectations of families can separate us. Where we are now, every moment we are together, is the right place for us."

Charlotte added with a warm smile, "And from now on, we will just chart our own course. We will write our destiny together."

Engfa kissed Charlotte lightly on the forehead. "Yes, my love. Together forever."

"I remember that moment when you came to save me," Charlotte said as she lay comfortably on Engfa's chest, her eyes filled with admiration and a little surprise. "The whole room... everyone saw how affected you were. You were so strong, even scary. But... you're not like that when you're with me." She looked at Engfa with a slight smile. "How can you be so scary?"

Engfa laughed softly, her voice echoing in the room. "Because I am so happy and peaceful when I am with you," Engfa said, stroking Charlotte's hair. "But others must be afraid of me. After all, I am a queen."

Charlotte also nodded, smiling slightly. "I really wonder how you broke the... blood spell that night. Was it because you were... thinking of me?"

Engfa's eyes looked into Charlotte's with deep compassion. "Yes," he said in a calm voice. "I thought about you. All I thought about was getting you back, keeping you safe. And at that moment, I didn't care about anything else."
