- 10.
I didn’t want to talk anymore. My wedding
was soon. I had to get back to the palace.
I stood up and tried to walk around him.
Darian grabbed me, eyes bloodshot.
“I won’t let you leave. I tried being nice, but
you won’t listen. I’ll have to use force.”
“I spent a lot of money to get this love
potion. Once you drink it, you’ll only think of
me.”
“You’ll help me beat the Snowfangs, and
you’ll marry me and stay by my side.”
“Be good. Drink it.

Darian held my mouth closed. The potion
made me weak. I couldn’t fight back.
I struggled, but it didn’t work. The potion was
about to go down my throat.
I was about to give up when the door burst
open.
I opened my eyes wide. Sylar came rushing in,
sword raised.
He stabbed Darian with all his strength.
Darian jumped back, finally letting go of me. I
coughed.
They started fighting. Darian was no match for Sylar. Sylar stabbed him in the shoulder.
Blood poured out.
Sylar came over to me and grabbed me,
holding me tight. He sounded guilty.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t protect you.
دو
He was shaking. He looked scared.
I relaxed and smiled. I hugged him back.
“You came just in time. Thank you, my
husband.”
Sylar blushed. Just those two words made his
face turn red.
He picked me up and carried me away.
Darian was lying on the ground, bleeding. He
stared at me, hate in his eyes.
I didn’t even look at him.
After Sylar and I left, the Snowfangs attacked.
Darian’s pack lost their leader. They were
crushed.
The Snowfang king killed Darian in public.
Then he took Darian’s men. The werewolves
were united.
Sylar carried me back to the siren palace. He
had the healers check me over. He was
relieved when they said I was okay.
Our wedding happened as planned. Sylar
made it special.
The road from the siren land to the vampire
land was covered in flowers and red silk. It
was beautiful.
I was worried about the vampire land. I
thought it would be dark.
As long as I could see a little, I thought I
could take it.
But when I got there, I got out of the carriage.
It was as bright as day.
The walls were filled with moonstones, giving
off a white glow.
My nose burned. I blinked, fighting back tears.
Sylar squeezed my hand. “I heard you were
afraid of the dark, so I got these. I told you. I
won’t let you regret it.”
He grabbed my hand. “Let me show you our
room.”
I nodded and followed him. The closer I got,
the more it looked familiar.
When I walked into the room, I lost it.
Everything in the room, even the blankets,
was exactly like my old room.
く
I turned around and hugged him, crying into
his clothes.
“Thank you.”
وو
Thank you for everything you did for me, then
and now.
I was so lucky to find a vampire who cared
about me so much.
Married life was happy and quiet. His powers
got stronger. He wasn’t afraid of the sun
anymore.
He often went with me to visit other races.
We met new people and brought back weird
gifts.
Sometimes, I’d have nightmares and wake up
crying.
Sylar never asked questions. He just took
care of me.
I told him everything about last time. I made
him admit that he was secretly in love with
- me.
He blushed and said he liked me the first time
he saw me.
He fell harder every day.
Me too. Every day, I felt myself loving him
more.
