CH 2 - My Reasons

Wayo POV

It's strange how I see the passing of time, it isn't counted in days or years but the time with him and the years without him. Now it was moving again because he was with me, he was home.

I smile as he moves his face into my touch even in sleep, he knows when I'm near. It's the third day since I turned him, these first 9 days are crucial, I changed him the right way but this period is called The Haze. The time of change when his body is turning from human to vampire. His senses will heighten, his hunger will grow and his need for me will be at its peak.

He doesn't believe that I know him, that I have been waiting for him to be reborn and come back. He may never understand or accept it, but it is the truth.

I still remember the first time I saw him, so many, many years ago. I was forced to visit strangers when all I wanted was to stay home and play with the puppies. The moment my mother took her eyes off me I made my escape, intending to jump the back wall and go home.

My foot slipped, but before I could fall someone caught me. I looked up and saw the most beautiful face smiling down at me as he helped me stand. When someone called us inside he held my hand and pulled me along, he didn't want me to fall again. But he was too late, I had already fallen again. Fallen in love with him. And from that day on, he became the centre of my world.

This time, I came to the human side on instructions from my father, he had a business that was having problems and wanted me to fix it. The invitation card from the Lady made me drop everything and hurry to meet her. But when I arrived it wasn't her waiting for me, but my Beloved.

I walked into the large foyer, looking through my phone when I heard it. His voice. My heart raced as I slowly looked around the room, not wanting to miss him in my haste. I saw him, coming down the stairs discussing something with someone.

He took a few more steps then stopped and looked around curiously before our eyes met. It was him, really truly him, the same face I loved for so long. The same beautiful eyes watching me, his lips parted as if to speak my name as he moved slowly towards me, coming to stand in front of me. Time started to move again, to the rhythm of my Beloved's heartbeat.

I'm awake before he can open his eyes, as he sits up and gasps I straddle his lap and hold him. His breathing eases as he realises it's me, pulling me closer as his mouth moves to my neck and he bites. It's the third day and his fangs are emerging, I manage to stop the hiss of pain as he draws blood, he is newly turned and has no control nor does he realise it will hurt.

In this time, only I can watch over him, only my blood will help him. Any other will cause pain, literally. As the days pass he will settle and begin to sleep more as the next stage sets in.

The Mooning or often referred to as The Honeymoon, will take a full moon where his senses will be on alert and he will be hard to control. The vampire magic as he drinks from me will begin to seep into his blood.

It isn't long before he's done and now his lips replace his bite as he kisses my neck and whispers my name, so softly. Blood and lust fuel his mind, it's all he will want until the haze passes. I moan as his hand slides down my bare chest. I hear his heartbeat quicken and my back hits the bed as he hungrily kisses me.

His hold is too tight, his kiss is rough breaking skin and blood drops from my lips. His eyes shift, it's beautiful to see the intensity of his gaze. He's trying to make me do what he wants without realising it. Its instincts beginning to form, but the magic isn't there for him to control, but that power will come later.

I don't stop him or offer any objection as he sucks the blood still flowing from my lips. The night will be long and rough but he doesn't need that power to get what he wants from me, I will give you anything you need.

~~~~~~~

The Haze ended without any problems and The Mooning has begun, it's the first week but he is doing something I didn't expect. The short time before sunrise his mind clears, thinking I'm still a sleep he wakes up.

He sits in my chair and reads the messages on his phone but sends no replies, looking miserable. I know the messages are from his brothers Beam and Kit, what surprises me is the attachment. He never cared about anyone before, not the old Pha, not family or friends until he met me. My worry again takes hold.

I pretend to sleep as he comes back a moments later and joins me moving in close, placing his head on my shoulder before sighing and falling asleep. I can't rest and watch the window as the light solely begins to seep in.

"I'm sorry..."

My heart aches to hear his voice in pain.

"...I can't keep...our promise..."

When a tear rolls down as he rests I gently wipe it away. What promise did you make with them Beloved? What promise makes you hurt this way? You turned him too soon. I had no choice!

I trace the lines of his face gently as he sleeps and think. I feel a strange new ache in my chest, why does he love anyone but me? When the time comes to leave, will he choose them over me? I turned him too soon.

His main attachment was to his brothers, a problem I needed to solve, but I couldn't have my Beloved hate me. Beam, Kit, what do I do with you? Slowly an idea begins to form in my mind. Maybe there was a way, but if I did use that method I would need people I trusted.

I slowly move out from under him, slipping on my robe and make my way to the desk in the corner. It doesn't take me long to write the quick notes and walk towards the door. My thralls have been staying away as Pha settles.

I throw the notes out the moment the door is open, seeing the bats fly and catch them before the doors banged shut and I'm pushed against it.

"I wasn't going..."

"You can't leave Yo." He whispers, power to make me obey in his voice and his eyes clouded again. "Never..."

I'm turned, my robe ripped away from me as his hands dig into my sides lifting me from the ground.

"Pha... the bed..."

"Too far..." He growls.

His kiss is demanding and hungry but I place a hand on his chest to push him back, there is no way I'm letting him do this at the door. He fights to get closer, uses his voice to make me obey but when neither works he looks at me with sad eyes.

"Please...Yo."

My hand trembles hearing him call my name, the moment I move it he's kissing me again, trapping me against the door and himself, moving my legs to wrap around his waist. This was unexpected, he wasn't being the Pha I remembered. He always demanded what he wanted but now he was asking?

"You can't ever leave me Yo." He begs between the kisses.

Wasn't it you who left me? I still didn't know to this day why, I thought he would have the answers when he came back but he didn't even believe we had met before. I might need advice from the soul witch.

At least I managed to send the notes, and help was coming. There was no one I trusted more to ask what I wanted done. Now I just had to wait for my brothers to agree.
