GUARDIAN FROM NEPTUNE : ZEAL

 VALKYRIE

THE BIRTH OF MY LITTLE PRINCESS

Dozens of years later, I was sure that I had generated a beautiful being inside me. The same being was the fruit of the love between Eros and me.

Now I was sure of it because this little concrete part of our love was now in my arms. Sculptured by flesh and blood and was wrapped in a dark mantle, all embroidered with silver threads. She had wide gray eyes and her hair was bluish black and straight. As a cradle princess, my daughter was even carrying a small brilliant tiara on top of her head.

On this occasion, I fed her with a special baby's bottle containing blood mixed with milk that had gone out of my breasts minutes before.

For my comfort and my daughter, I was lying on the marble bed as I was in my sleeping costume. That is a long and comfortable nightgown. My hair was pulled back into a massive bun on top of my head. There were some loose strands of hair on the sides of my face. My face was pale and exhausted because the birth of my daughter was required of me excessive consuming and some sleepless nights because I only thought of her and her well-being after coming to the universe as a 'small vampire'.

So my skin, hair and some parts of my body had been changed without my permission. But having my little princess in my arms, I realized that all this was worth it. I would be horrible for my whole eternity to stay with my little daughter in my arms forever.

At that instant I stared at the beautiful face of my daughter while my father, Eros, and Enzo were standing around the bed, watching the most beautiful scenes of the only females in that castle that could shelter hundreds of us, but there were only two female vampires so similar and so special. My daughter and I.

"We have to choose a name for her."

I uttered still feeding my little girl that drank all the milk while freezing her gray eyes on me. She seemed to comprehend that I was her biological mother and that she had left my womb after seven months of pregnancy. Because of it, my baby was born prematurely and very feeble.

"Yes, we have."

Eros affirmed. Then he scratched his head, wondering which name would fit so well with the personality of our daughter.

And she could never hate her name, when she grew up and realized that a name was for whole life, in our case, for all eternity.

"Can I make a suggestion for my little princess?"

My father asked, looking at his granddaughter wrapped in the dark manta. The little girl was almost closing her eyes in vast sleep.

"Sure father."

I responded, raising my eyes and looking at his image. My father never took off the wine cloak from his body for centuries.

"Well ..."He stammered. "I ... I thought of 'Vær'."

Eros and I looked toward my father and compressed our faces in his direction. This was a short and different name. Easy to pronounce, but there was still nothing special about it that made it worthy of the name of our daughter.

"VAER?"

We questioned together. Enzo ended up sitting on the bed. He was still a little boy. But his body phase change would occur in the near future.

"That Name is beautiful!"

Enzo exclaimed, looking at the baby in my arms.

My father began to explain us.

"Yes, Vær would be the combination of the names Valkyrie and Eros."

Eros gave me a smug look and then a smile. After a cohesive explanation of my father, we ended up agreeing with that name that the King of Neptune had invented by himself. No one in the universe had that name. My daughter would be the first and perhaps the only one to be called Vær.

"Yes, the name is perfect."

We talked together and Eros sat beside me and began to smooth the bluish black hair of our little girl with the cold palm of his hand. He seemed afraid to hurt her, by imagining that Vær was so small and fragile.

"That name is perfect for our little princess of the vampires."

A desire of doting father broke into his thoughts and he made me a particular petition.

"Can I carry my daughter a minute?"

At that moment, I smiled gently at him and removed the feeding-bottle from the lips of my daughter. She had taken all the blood mixed with milk. Then I adapted her little body to the huge arms of my husband and father of my daughter. Eros now represented two fundamental roles in my life. 'My husband and father of our little girl.'

"I never thought we could make a creature so small and beautiful as our Vær."

Eros confessed, holding her cold little pale hand. He added a kiss on the hand of our sole heir and smiled in the direction of her eyes. Vær returned a sincere and sweet smile to her father. There was in her lips, two canine teeth that were growing. After all, she was already one of us from her act of birth.

Vær was a vampire by birth. She was the daughter of two vampires and because of it, her transformation was immediate, already through her birth. She was considered a very rare species of vampires and her class was called molecular species.

Her powers could go to extremes or not. But that we only would know when she completed twelve years old. There was a test that would detect the dimension of her power and her capacity as a molecular vampire.

But for now, we could only live with expectations about it.

"Can I also carry her in my arms?"

Enzo asked, feeling a bit excluded from that moment so magical. The vampire boy, who was the only boy in body shape, wanted to feel useful and special in the life of the newest heiress from Neptune.

"Of course."

I stated and Eros looked to Enzo and the little boy sat beside him, opening his short arms to hold the baby. Eros put our daughter in the arms of Enzo and he looked at her with surprise. The little vampire had never seen a baby before in his life. Then he thought that child was the cutest and sweet little creature in our universe.

"She has such small hands!"

Enzo exclaimed, holding Vaer's little hand.

"Yeah"

I nodded, smiling and imagining we had put a little sister in the life of Enzo. Probably they would live as brother and sister in that castle. They would share many wonderful things together.

"Will she grow up one day?"

He asked.

"Yes, she will."

Eros answered and rubbed the boy's hair, right at the top of his head. Enzo stood looking at Vær in his arms and began to utter his oaths without anyone had imposed him them while in the corner of his right eye, a tear came down and reached Vær's face. She ended up getting agitated with that tear and her arms began to show unquiet movements.

"Dear Vær , I promise you that we will be inseparable in this castle. When you're my size, we will play all the time. I will protect you from any danger! Because I'm strong as vampire Eros!"

We all smiled, hearing these words, except Enzo who remained looking serious on the little girl's face that would change our lives.
