Keep Breathing, Just Keep Breathing

I revel in the night. Nothing compared to the wonders of the moon. Night, the time when most mortals stumbled around under the abyssal cover of darkness, was when I graced the world by gliding through the tree. Our kind would wander in the beauty of silver streaks that glimmered upon the sea and descended through tree tops. The moon was our sun, and by this sun, I saw the world.

So under the blue-grey orb, I saw streaks of light trickle through the window and fall onto the bed. The silver slight painted my Lily’s face in a pale wonder. She was magnificent, strong, and beautiful as a vampire. It wasn’t that she wasn’t like this before, but her features were….enhanced.

While our clan had been discussing downstairs, I had led her to my room for her to sleep. Her body was still trying to adjust from the change of being human to becoming one of us, one of the immortals. She had drunken the blood from the goblet earlier today with lust. As soon as her lips touched the scarlet liquid, she devoured it all, despite her former human side saying it was disgusting. Her body was still trying to adjust to this new form.

Given a few days, Lily would be sleeping less and less, gain more of an appetite for blood, and her skin would pale. It would take time, but we had forever to wait.

The meeting about our newest member had just ended. Chris had finally calmed down and decided that it was my problem, not his. Austin wasn’t too upset, but I didn’t expect him to be. He was pretty casual about these things.

I closed the door softly behind me. Her form was curled on top of the bed, not effected by the cold winds at all. Her brown hair was spread like frozen waves over the pillow as she evenly breathed in and out. I sat down on the opposite side of the bed, just watching her sleep. Lily’s face was so peaceful.

The waves were crashing below us as I sighed, shaking my head. We were in a bundle of confusion and a tangle of life right now. Between the upset feed-subs, Lily, and the approaching Witchers, it was all just so much.

Leaning over, I stroked Lily’s cheek with the back of my hand. She barely stirred, only moved her head up against my hand. My lips twisted up in a small smile. After a moment, I got up and retrieved a blanket. As soon as I draped the maroon cloth over her, she shivered and snuggled up under it. I lay down on the bed beside her, pulling the blanket around my body as well. Although I needed no heat, it was nice to be able to be covered by it. It would’ve made more sense to get under the covers, but I didn’t want to move her.

“Alan?” A soft whisper rose up as I settled down. Soft shuffling followed as she turned over to face me. I saw those once green eyes sparkled a brilliant amber in the darkness.

“Yes, Lily?” I responded, stroking her soft hair. Her eyes fluttered closed as she smiled.

“Nothing, just making sure you were here.” She softly murmured.

“Of course, darling.” I cooed back to her. She blushed, faintly, but heat rose to her cheeks.

“So how does it feel?”

“To be a vampire or to not feel anything?”

“Yes.” I chuckled and twirled a lock of hair around my finger.

“No different, just a lot hungrier.” She admitted. I pulled her close to me. No longer was her body warm, but just like mine.

“You’ll get used to controlling it. It’ll go away if you manage it.” I explained. She snuggled into my chest, starting to nod off already.

“Oh.” Was her only reply. I tangled my fingers into her silky hair under the pale moon light. She was already asleep by the time I started to hum a song I had heard from Oli. It was sad, telling his lover not to go, he can’t do it on his own. Yet, it was kind of catchy.

Notes

Hello everyone! I've gotten a little feedback about the contest already and it seems you guys like the challenge! Remember: Please message me if you're going to enter the contest! Even if you haven't post a chapter yet, I'd love to get your username on my list and once you have the link, send it to me immediately! You can always edit later and I'll be reading everyone's by the end of the contest. You have plenty of time, but I'd love to know if you're participating!

There was already a question asked about night hound names so I'll say this. Now I can't give out answers but I will give you this hint: Go to google translate and translate from english to Latin. Type in what yoy want the name to mean. (Like, Sky-on-fire) and translate. Take the first two letters of each translated word to create the name!

(Ex: Sky's-on-Fire would translate to Caelum est in igne. The night hound name would be Ca'Es'Ig!)

Thanks wolves! Stay beautiful!
