The curtains were shut as I opened my heavy eyelids. I hadn't slept very well. I had dreamt a horrible nightmare in which I was running through the endless forest again. The endless forest where all trees looked the same. Where vapor dust floated around the tree crowns like it were ghosts watching everyting around them. The endless forest where even a whisper echoed loudly through all directions. I dreamt that I got lost and that there were many dark shilouettes wandering around me. Their eyes were glowing a bright red, as they were whispering my name. They were chasing me from all directions. As I looked at the window, there were curtains that covered them. There were only dim rays of sunlight coming in from the red twilight sun. Why were the curtains shut?

Why hadn't Seoho opened them? I blinked my eyes a few times to get rid of the sleepyness I was feeling. After several minutes I heard Seoho turning a page of his book. I rolled my head, so I was facing him. "Good morning." I whispered with a raspy morning voice. Seoho's head slowly turned towards me and he smiled at me. "Good morning darling! How are you feeling? Did you sleep well?" I batted my eyelashes a few times and then answered "Well not really, I had a few nightmares."  "Oh no! What was your dream about?" Seoho asked while lifting his eyebrows. "Well I dreamt about some people chasing me.

They had red eyes, bright red eyes and they were coming from all directions until they caught me. They were screeching and howling my name. I was terrified Seoho. Why do I dream things like these?" Seoho didn't seem like he wanted to answer my question, so he tilted his head and fluttered his eyelashes. "Well my dear, I don't know it, but it might be because you were so scared of the forest that you tried to escape. Don't worry, I will protect you whenever necessary. I'm sure if the fullmoon is gone you will have better dreams again." Seoho answered smiling nervously.

He suddenly laid onto his back staring at the large chandelier that was hanging from the ceiling. He seemed like he knew something was off. He seemed to know something I didn't. I was a little scared of what would happen to me. I didn't know if I would ever be able to escape the endless forest again. Would I make it out of here alive again? Would I be able to go back to where I came from? Suddenly Seoho's soft voice broke the silence. "Were you scared last nigh when I left to help Hwanwoong?" He glanced at me.

"I was a bit scared at first but after some minutes I could finally fall asleep". "That is good to hear my dear!" ,he gazed at me again with his maroon colored eyes, they seemed darker than the had been the night before, they seemed less evil. They seemed way more trustworthy. He smiled at me and let his soft hand run over my hair. You have such smooth hair my dear ike feathers and satin. He caressed my head softly and seconds later he turned back to his book. It was still this poetry collection of Shakespeare he war reading.

Keonhee had told me the other night that Seoho only knew how to flirt so enticingly because he has read so many poetry novels. I continued looking at him, and noticed that he was wearing different clothes than the night before. He was wearing a black laced shirt and rather tight black trousers, I inspected the beauty of his body further as I noticed a small bruise on his forearm, I thought vampires didn't get hurt? I thought they weren't vulnerable? But when I rememered what Keonhee had said the night before,

I realized that vampires were very sensitive to sunlight, he said that they needed and umbrella if they wanted to take a walk outside. They needed a special form of fabric that would shield the sunligt off them. Maybe Seoho had gotten into the sunlight? I kept watching him as his eyes roamed acrosst the pages and didn't shift a bit. He was lost in the lines, his face was focused as I watched him read through the paragraphs in awe. He seemed to be asthonished of l what he was reading, too focused to cast a glance at me. I fidgeted a little so I could win over his attention again.

He turned his head towards me and laid the book onto the nightstand. A seductive smile rose onto his flawless face as he shifted closer to me. "Why don't you let me love you darling? I want to show you how special you are to me, how much you mean to me. How much I love the beauty of your pale skin, your rosy lips and your satin soft skin." He spoke smoothly as his fingers brushed along my cheek. All of a sudden he
pressed his humid lips onto mine kissing me slowly. I closed my eyes and sunk back into the soft mattress. Seoho's breath tickeled on my face as his hair brushed across my temples.

I smelled his scent again this heartwarming scent of rain and musk. I felt his hands softly travel down my shoulder tickling it lightly. I got goosebumps as quiet soft moans escaped his lips. "Seoho!" I whispered inbetween our lips submerging. He shifted closer and got a grip of my waist. He was kissing me without taking a breath. All of a sudden the door to the bedroom opened and we both could see Keonhee stand there smiling provocatively. "I' m sorry to disturb you two but, I have prepared breakfast. You can come downstairs now."

"Good Keonhee, thank you for preparing it, we will be downstairs soon. But didn't I tell you to knock on my door before you come in?" Seoho said bluntly while raising an eyebrow. "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't want to disturb you." Keonhee answered sarcastically.
