The next morning Gabriel was laying in bed awake twirling his Princess' hair as she laid sleeping on his chest. He glanced out the window to see it was still dark. Anna stirred and he looked at her. Her eyes fluttered open and she looked at him and smiled "Morning love".

She snuggled into his chest and he kissed her head "Morning my Darling Anna, Did you sleep well?"

She looked up at him "Yes I did, did you?"

He smiled and kissed her "Yes very well Dear"

She kissed him softly and laid beside him and sighed "Not long till you have to leave"

"I'm sorry dear but i promise i will return" He cupped her face in his hand and wiped a stray tear away with his thumb. She smiled and cuddled into him for what time she had with him before he has to leave.

...

She stood at the docks waving goodbye, whilst tears filled her eyes. Gabriel waved back as did Carl. The tears ran down her cheeks as she spoke "Soon my love, soon we shall be together again" She mounted her horse and headed back to the castle, her vision was blurred and blinding sun didn't help.

It had been years since the sun had shined on the village, Everyone was gathering outside as Anna arrived in the village. A few of the villagers started to question what was going on "Princess Anna, Where has Van Helsing gone?" , "Has Dracula been defeated?"

She stood up on the well were she had stood when she first met Gabriel she cleared her throat and started her announcement "My people I am relieved to finally annonce the defeat of Dracula all thanks to Helsing, None of this would have been possible without him. In fact I would probably be dead if it wasn't for him. He is going to be forever welcomed in the village for he is our hero. Thanks to him your children can play outside during the day and in summer at night and you can be sure that they will be safe"

All of the towns people cheered and the children started to play and giggle. Anna got down of the well and mounted her horse "I shall hold a ball in honour of this, Once Helsing returns in a couple of weeks" With that she went home.

...

She tied her horse up in the stables and headed in. When she got in she went to the den and sat on the sofa infront of the fire and let her thoughts take over. The tears ran down her cheeks like a never-ending river

*Please return to me soon my love*
