Valkyrie - the Vampire Princess 2
Page 7
“How did you learn of the existence of a wizard?”
I cast a worried stare upon Eros, before answering my father’s question.
“Valeska told me,” I said low.
“Valeska!” He said angrily. “Did she know everything?”
“She only wanted to help me,” I said.
“Be quiet!” my father said screaming at me.
I had never seen him like that. He never treated me that way.
“Bring Valeska here!” he ordered Eros.
Eros left the main room and then he returned in the company of Valeska.
“Does my master desire to talk to me?” Valeska asked, frightened.
“Why did you tell Valkyrie about the existence of wizard Odik?” he asked, upset.
“She asked for my help,” Valeska answered with her head down.
She couldn’t face her master.
“What help?” he insisted.
“She wanted to become human again.”
“And you put her in danger!”
Vincent threw Valeska against the wall, using his vampire power. Her body slipped on the smooth surface and stopped on the floor.
“I just wanted to help Valkyrie,” she said with difficulty as she was sobbing.
“You betrayed me!” Vincent said and knocked his chair down.
Bizak ran into the main room when he heard the noise. He stopped next to Eros, without understanding what was happening.
“And I don’t accept traitors in our midst!”
Vincent grabbed Valeska’s arm, pulling her up.
“You know our rules! Do you know what will happen to you?”
Vincent dragged her to other room of the castle.
“Valkyrie, stop your father! I did this because of you!” Valeska pleaded.
I tried to do something and made a move to leave the place and go after them. I was desperate to alleviate the suffering of Valeska.
But Eros held my arm firmly so I could not go after them. I stayed in the living room with Eros and Bizak, as we were awaiting the return of my father and Valeska.
“What will my father do to her?” I asked, scared.
“At the very least .... He will extinguish her,” Bizak said, with his head down as he looked unhappy about it.
Chapter 29
Vincent took her to the shooting room. A small, empty place where there was only a metal chain.
He chained her, with her body hanging down from the ceiling.
She had no defense.
“Vincent, do not do it! I didn’t do any harm!” she shouted.
“I gave you immortality and will take it from you now!” he said holding a metal sword.
“Don’t do it!” she pleaded with her eyes closed, fearing the worst.
“Immortality is over for you.”
He held his sword with both hands and placed it at the head of the young vampire.
It took a blow on her neck and her dark blood dripped on the floor. Her head rolled on the ground.
Valeska’s immortality had been interrupted at that moment.
Chapter 30
Vincent returned to the main room holding Valeska’s head by the hair. I embraced Eros as I was frightened at my father’s barbarous attitude.
“This is the end of everyone who betrays me!” he said and threw Valeska's head down. It stopped near Bizak’s foot.
“Get rid of it!” my father ordered.
My father did it without stimulus. He had Valeska as a strong ally, a faithful servant and I had broken that covenant between the two.
I should have died in her place.
Bizak held her head and left the scene as he looked horrified at Valeska’s punishment.
Chapter 31
Vincent went back to sleep for an indefinite time.
He needed to sleep infinitely to restore all his vampire energy and strengthen his master-vampire powers. Fresh blood was not enough for it. He also needed to feed his own sleep.
The castle was even more empty and silent at this moment.
Now only Eros, Bizak and I gave the air of our grace through the rooms of the castle. From five, three were left. My father had fallen asleep rapidly and nobody knew when he would wake up. Maybe it would take months or even years.
Chapter 32
I decided to walk through the woods. I was trying to forget the horrible scenes that stuck in my mind about Valeska’s death. Inside me, I carried the blame for the destruction of this woman. Everything would be different if I wasn’t there. She would still be alive.
I stopped walking when I saw Eros curved down on a rock. He looked to the other side as he seemed distracted by something.
When he realized someone was there, he turned and looked at me.
“I cannot stop thinking about the way in which Valeska died!” I said walking towards him.
“She deserved it,” he said resigned.
“It was my fault. If I was not here, she would be alive.” I stopped waking in front of him.
“She died because she betrayed the trust of Vincent.” he explained.
“She just did what I asked for,” I said.
“She wanted to destroy you, so she let you know about the existence of Odik.”
“You never liked her!”
“I just never trusted her,” he alleged.
“I will go away from here,” I said.
“You cannot do it! Your father?” he asked, looking at my face.
“He knows how to live without me,” I said as looked down at the ground.
“This is your home now,” he insisted.
“I cannot live here, after everything that happened.”
“Put the notion in your mind that Valeska didn’t like you. She was jealous of you, she always wanted your destruction,” he confessed.
“How do you know that?” I asked as I stared at his face.
“I sensed that about her, so I always told you to stay away from her.”
I lowered my head reflecting the words spoken by Eros. Perhaps he was right.
“Drop this idea that you want to go away. Here you are safe, in the company of your father.” He stared at me.
I stared at him too.
“On Earth you will be in danger. You cannot live with humans!” He believed this and I could see he was troubled.
“What about my mother?” I asked. “I miss her!”
“You will have to continue to exist in your mother’s absence.” There was a short pause. “As I live in loneliness.” His voice was low.
“Do you feel lonely?” I asked, surprised.
“Yes, for centuries.”
I looked at him tenderly.
I had the desire to end his loneliness.
Eros got up, took two steps and kept his back to me.
My mind was flooded with scenes that occurred on planet Earth some time ago, on the night of the Rock and Roll concert, when the doctor chased me with the goons.
Then another scene - I saw everyone dead, their bloodied bodies, lying on the street.
“Was it you?” I asked, alarmed.
I returned to reality and saw Eros still standing in front of me.
“Did you kill them?”
“Did I kill them?” He frowned at me. “What are you talking about?”
“I am talking about the doctor and his men. I saw them dead,” I said, disappointed.
“Yes, I killed them,” he confessed without regret.
“Why?” I demanded.
“To ensure your safety.” He looked at me from head to toe.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I didn’t think it was necessary.”
Eros knew perfectly well I would never have come to Neptune knowing about the carnage he had caused.
Chapter 33
I wanted everyone to fall asleep.
I wanted to be certain that I would be safe to put my plan into practice. This night couldn’t pass without me doing what I had to do.
I put on the sa
me dress that I had brought with me from Earth. Valeska had left it in the corner of my bedroom.
I left my bedroom and closed the door behind me. I walked toward the corridor in pure silence, as I was trying not to make any noise and wake up someone in the castle.
I stopped at Eros’ bedroom door.
At that moment, I decided to open it and go in. I wanted to see him one last time, even if he was asleep.
I looked up at the ceiling and he was there, sleeping with his head down like a helpless being. I looked at him for quite a few minutes. I said goodbye to him in my mind. I was going away from him against my own will. At much cost, I walked back to the hallway and closed his bedroom door with my bleeding heart.
I moved on...
At that moment I entered my father’s bedroom and I redoubled the care I had when I entered Eros’ room. I walked to the bed where my father had been asleep for days. His tummy up and his hands crossed on his chest, like a manner of defense.
I looked at his face for a moment. I had found him and by my own force I would separate him from me. I thought that my mother would need me more. She was alone in the world and my father had Bizak and Eros by his side.
My anger for not being able to become human again, had caused me to make that decision. It would be impossible to live in that place next to Eros, and I would never have his love. I would always look at him and wish to be human. It would be the worst torment of my life. Keeping away from him would be the best thing to do, since the love I felt for him had cost the life of Valeska.
I touched my lips lightly on my father’s forehead as I was trying not to wake him.
After that I left his bedroom with more haste than when I entered it.
Chapter 34
Valeska told me all what was needed to return the planet Earth when we were hidden in the room where it was allowed. She explained to me everything she knew about it and enough for me to know how to do it one day if I would need to return to the planet Earth.
I entered that room and closed the door. I looked up at the ceiling and saw the symbol of Neptune turned off.
I stepped into the circle on the ground. It was necessary for me to be in it, to get it right.
I looked at the symbol again. My eyes were gray. The strength of my eyes made the symbol of Neptune turn on. Then a blue light, the same that appeared in the sky when I was on Earth with Eros, came out.
A disconcerting wind traveled fast through the place and rocked my body into a windmill.
I was completely sucked by that energy deposited to the wind. It was floating upwards, towards the symbol on the ceiling. The same was broken and opened a passage into which I was flung.
The passage closed and it transported me to another dimension.
I wasn’t on planet Neptune any longer, with my father...
Soon I would be back on planet Earth and ultimately find my mother again...
