Seventh Blood Vampires

Night Moon Demon

The following week, a special ship ordered Evander has been completed and ready to be used sailing to the high seas. The ship is now leaning on a dock not far from the beach, just a few kilometers from Ariana's cottage.

Evander should have been happy because in the end the day he was waiting for arrived. Tomorrow, the devil's moon will reappear, and he will leave Ariana to go back in time.

Instead of feeling happy, Evander actually felt sick and incredibly upset. He did not believe that Douglas and Ariana's cottage were two things that were very difficult to leave behind. Evander has tried his best to overcome his inner struggle alone. He wants Ariana to be strong because he sees her who is also strong and able to overcome the harsh reality of separation.

Evander had not yet gotten out of bed, he was still looking at his wife who was exhausted after making love twice without rest. Evander only kissed Ariana's cheeks at a glance, his intention to wake the woman who made him fall in love was undo.

He wants to make love again. Not just once, but many times because Evander never felt satisfied when with his wife.

Yes, Evander was not at all satisfied today. He wanted to feel his wife more in their last night together. Evander wants to remember his woman for tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, all the time, forever.

“What's up, Evan?” ariana asked lazily when she realized Evander took off his hug and was about to get out of bed.

“Sleep, I have to do something on the dock,” replied Evander. He did have to make final preparations after mapping out his route. Ariana did not answer, but continued her sleep after murmuring indistinctly.

If Evander's time travel is successful, he'll be back in time about 24 hours from now. Forecasts say he will arrive at the same place, the same night his ship was wrecked. So, at that time Evander had to convince all the crew to stay away from the route they should, so he might direct them to return to Transylvania. For safety.

Evander must also not be in the crate as before, he must warn the ship's captain not to get into the center of the storm. Huh, Evander was a little sorry for sucking the blood of 12 crew members on the way to London some time ago.

If those who died were still alive, it could at least help save the ship from getting sunk, somehow.

Many things disturbed Evander's mind. Especially when he thought of his wife who would live alone in the cottage after his departure. Ariana will be very sad. But Evander had told Steven to take his wife to stay at Ariana's cabin for a while.

Evander tells Ariana that his wife might get symptoms of a change in habits. This is because the poison given by Evander runs slowly in the body of Ariana. He deliberately gave a small amount of poison so that Ariana still survive when pregnant with her child.

Containing a baby vampire is never easy, Ariana can bleed to death before delivery if she does not have vampire poison in her body. Evander prepared his wife for the bad possibility.

Lastly, Evander can only hope that the seeds will grow in Ariana's womb. If that happens, Evander will only be able to meet his son for another thousand years, even if he does not die hunted while on a mission in London.

Ah, Evander really wanted to give a child, as a last gift to his wife so that she would no longer be lonely. But I don't know... After making love twice, his wife complained of stomach cramps. The symptoms are commonly understood as pe-em-ice in women.

However, nothing was impossible for Evander. If he can get to the Ariana cottage through impossible events, then it is not impossible for Ariana to become pregnant with her child. Although the chances are very small.

Until the dock, Evander examined the ship thoroughly, repeated it once more and finally satisfied with the results. All are ready for tomorrow's trip. Except heart.

Evander returns to the cottage, to Ariana's room to hug his wife who is still sound and dreaming.

“You said something?” asked Ariana in a loud voice. He woke up and looked at Evander with a very sleepy face.

“Yes, I love you, Ana! Forever,” whispered Evander as he stroked his wife's cheek.

Ariana went straight into Evander's arms and continued her sleep. Refusing to remember that tonight was the last time he could sleep with the Count, if there was only a little time left to be with his beloved husband.

Ariana hugged more tightly, locking Evander in a hold, as if she did not want to be left alone. He still wanted to have that man here, by his side, forever.

**

Dusk fell quickly the next day. Evander and Ariana still hugged each other tightly, staring at each other in silence. Tears drenched their faces, and Ariana's sorrowful sobbing was no longer inevitable.

Ah, Ariana and Evander never expected the magnitude of the love that grew between them in such a short time. How could they possibly easily let go of each other? While their hearts are united.

In the end, they embraced as husband and wife for the last time with their hands and body. Next they will continue to embrace and love each other only with the soul, forever.

“Let it be like this in five minutes, Evan! I still want to hug you, you know there's no more tomorrow here for me, my heart feels dead,” Ariana said.

“Ah .. Ana, you are my heart! I will never forget you, I will love you until fate brings us together again here,” whispered Evander soothingly.

The five minutes that Ariana requested had grown to fifteen minutes. They end up breaking down hugs with lots of kisses and words of love.

Doctor Steven and his wife remind Evander to immediately set out to pursue the demon moon that will appear at midnight. Because, by the time it arrived, Evander had to be already in the middle of the high seas to cross the time gap.

“I'm leaving, My Love!” pamit Evander at the pier. He kissed his wife's hand on his knees, like a young noble expressing love . Evander leaves Ariana with Steven and his wife before stepping into the ship.

The weather was very bright, the full moon was shining brightly in the sky, accompanying the departure of Evander's ship. However, that brightness is not contagious to Evander's heart. He turned several times to the dock to see Ariana standing fragile between Steven and his wife. Look with hot eyes and a broken heart.

There have been too many farewell stories Evander went through during his 400 years of life, but none have given him this deep sadness. He even stuck his neck out once more to see Ariana who was getting smaller as their distance moved away.

Later, Evander is made to panic when Ariana falls to her knees and loses consciousness. Evander's ship had crossed the shoreline, a heavy weight whipping his chest, and he also fell to his knees for a moment.
