{#12: The dark thoughts of a vampire}

Tauris' p.o.v.:

"God, she's awesome, she's an angel fallen from heaven!" I mentally jelled at myself, as I walked into my castle. "Nothing that I could ever deserve. I'm a soulless monster I don't deserve an angel!" I went strait to the library and took a deep breath in the hope to calm myself. 'She had been here! I still can smell her sweet sent.' I followed her perfume trough the library and it lead me to the window-seat by the books about our castle-history.

"She loves history and surely our personal history. She's a special girl. I can see now what attrackts you to this human." Richard said as he walked toward me.

"She's unique, nothing a monster like me deserves." I said.

"Everyone deserves happiness, Tauris. You may deserve it even more than any of us. And there's always a way toward it. Maybe this is finally your time. she could be your redemption." Richard said with his wise old voice. 'Still, she's mortal he wouldn't be able to keep her forever. Except, when he could ... change her. Yes, that would be the best solution If only he would be less selfless, for once doing something totally selfish.'

"I will never curse her that way, Richard. I'll leave if I have to, but I'll not doom her into a life of shadows. She's an angel, a rare light in a world of darkness. Taking her away or better stealing her away, from the world would be an act of impossible cruelty, a crime against every law ever written. No, I'm happy and gratefull to be blessed by the light of such an angel in my life once more. But history learned me that I'm not meant to be with them." I said very angry and even more sad at the same time.

"It's a sad fact that you cant see yourself real, Tauris." Richard said.

"Leave me now, Richard. I want to be alone." I said tiered of this internal discussion with him.

"I'll leave now." Richard said. 'Still, it kills me to see you hurt yourself.' Richard thought.

"You can as well say it out loud, if you want. It doesn't makes a difference." I said angry and ran away, because I couldn't stand any more.

* * *

After an hour, I was on my way out when Richard stopped me. "Where are you going?"

"Out! I'm going for a run and after that I have to feed." I half shouted as I stood in front of the door.

"Again?" Richard asked surprised.

"True is coming tomorrow. We have to work on an assignment together for history. So I invited her over here." I explained impatient.

"Oh, well sure, no problem. I'll see you later." Richard said and walked away.

I didn't waited any longer, but sprinted out of the door and ran into the hills. Because of the winter it was already dark so no one would see me. I smiled at myself. 'It was hilarious I moved to a little town where the people still believed in myths. And I moved to live between them and they saw me, the real monster, as their saviour. A gift send by God himself. Camouflage! They saw me as beautiful wile I'm nothing more then a monster. Rather send by Satan then by God, if they asked me.' I thought angry as I ran trough the hills.

'What's that?' I thought suspicious when I smelled something I thought I would never smell again so near the village, near my territory. It was clearly the disgusting smell of a 'wild Lycan'. And if my instincts were correct there was more than one.

I debated in my head how I would follow the track now or first go back to the castle and ask Richards advice about it. If there was more than one they might surprise me and even try to attack me when I didn't expected it. I should go back for Richard . The two of us together could easily overpower them. Actually I think that Richard alone can overpower at least a few of them without my help -smile.

I ran back to the castle as fast as my legs would carry me. "Richard!" I screamed, as I ran trough the door. No answer. "Richard!!!" I screamed so loud that I was sure that they could hear me scream at the Lake-House.

"God Tauris. What the hell is wrong with you? Where is the fire?" Richard responded as he came down the stairs in nothing but a towel.

'Oops' I thought a bit embarrassed.

"Well? Are you going to tell me? Today, pleas." Richard said impatient.

'Double oops. I had made him angry.' I thought and said totally ashamed of my behaviour: "Well ... you see ... I was on my run ... and ..."

"God Tauris. Do I get to hear it today? Because if you can't see it. I was busy taking a bath. Or at least I was trying before you came in jelling like a lunatic." Richard said curios and angry at the same time.

"Yes, sure can we go to my study?" I asked thinking about our servants.

"Sure why not. I doubt that the water of my bat is still warm anyway." Richard said sarcastic, but still followed me into my study.

"So, what's the big trouble?" Richard asked.

"Lycans ... I found a trail in the hills of a wild Lycan. And I'm pretty sure that he wasn't alone." I explained looking at the dark hills trough the window.

"God spare us." Richard whispered and than asked worried: "Did you follow the trail?"

"No, I planed to. But I thought it would be safer if I came to tell you first." I answered his question, knowing why he was concerned.

"Good. At least you have some brains in that head of you." Richard said, because he knew that it was my habit to do dangerous things alone, caused by my proud.

"So, what are we going to do now?" I asked curios.

"I'm going to get dressed, then we are going to see who dares to come in our hills. Prepare for what might be a long night of trail-hunting." Richard said and walked away.

I sighed. Indeed, this would be a long night. So I called the Lake-House to confirm how True would came tomorrow.

"This is the Lake-House residence of the family Zacharel, pleas chose who you want to speak." a mechanic voice said and then added. "Press 1 if you want to speak to doctor Zacherel. Beep. Press 2 if you want to speak to Mister Zacherel. Beep. Or press 3 if you want to talk to Lady Zacherel."

'Wow, I was rich, but we didn't had such a cool voicemail.' anyway I pressed 3 to speak to True, but their was no response. After four rings the mechanic voice said: "Lady Zacherel is not available pleas try again later." I cursed and wanted to end the connection when the mechanic voice continued: "Or you can try to call her on her self. The number is as follows +4475 04852409. Tanks you for calling, if you wish you can leave a message after the beep. Beep." I ended the connection and called her self.

"Pick up, pick up." I said as I header the ringing over the line.

"Hi this is True. I'm not here right now. But please leave a message so I can call you back later." True's voice said over her voicemail.

"Yes, hi True it's Tauris. It was to confirm our meeting tomorrow. But I guess you're still at Lilly's. So I guess I'll see you tomorrow. I'll expect you around two o'clock if that's okay for you. See you then." I said and ended the conversation. Then I ran up to my room and changed in some comfy clouts for the trail-hunt with Richard.

"Tauris, are you ready?" Richard jelled from downstairs.

I guess this was pay-back-time for earlier. "Coming." I shouted back as I ran down the stairs. "Present." I said as I entered the hall.

"Good. Lets go." Richard said in a business voice and walked out the door.

I nodded and followed him into the darkness.

Hi everyone,

So I didn't plan this part, it just came to me as I was writing. Anyway, this means that from now on their will be Lycans in the story as well -smile.

I don't know what you guys think but I sort of like the idea of some action in this perfect world, that would otherwise start to get boring.
