Then suddenly a gentle knock on door comes.
Dariush Farzad heart beat faster and thought to himself: calm down, it's just first person I am going to see in this world.
Then said aloud: who is it?
A woman voice comes gently yet elegantly: it's me, "Eira", your wife.
Dariush thought: my wife!?.... Calm down dariush.. Calm down... (He takes several deep breath)
Dariush: come in.— at same time he thought: I don't know I can call her something like dear or not. But after all, I need to be careful.
Eira comes to office. Her hair was red and long. Her pupils was black. Her body curvy and elegant. Her attire; black and fitting on her body. And her chest and hips was big, but not too much, mix of elegant and seduction.
Eira softly said: dariush... Are you ok? Because you didn't drink blood for almost 6 month. I am very worried about your health, especially now when everyone wants you.... Dead. —Concern and worry was evident in her face.
Dariush said with honesty: I am not ok, but I didn't lose hope yet. I just need time to think and act, at least just one second. So for now don't worry my bloody sunshine. (He said it instinctively, even he himself stunned for a moment before regaining his composure)
Eira expression softens slightly and said: I know, but... I can't stop being worry.
Dariush said: I did a lot of things and now I am seeing the consequences, but don't worry my dear, I will try my best to change myself and everything, both for myself and you. (His expression softened)
Eira stepped closer to desk and said: promise?— she said with determination and hope in her eyes.
Dariush nodded and said with a smile on his lips: I promise, just don't leave me alone, because I don't have anyone in this world but you my dear.
Eira stepped closer and stand beside dariush and bend down for a moment to kiss his cheek affectionately: I will promise too. I will never leave you alone. (She blushed slightly and smiled shyly)
Dariush thought for a moment: I need to know her intention, but for now I will act like a good husband. And fortunately I can remembered some of this body memories with her.
Dariush with a tired smiled on his lips said: thank you my dear.
But just after a second another knock on door comes, and butler voice comes from the door: milord, you have some guests, they came from the kingdom of "emara".
Eira straight up her posture and stand beside dariush elegantly.
Dariush thought: emara kingdom? I can remember something... They are a human kingdom. And I am a vampire Lord with a lot of politic and army strength and power, but for now I am weak in these areas too. (He sigh deeply) I think... They want something that I don't like. Especially now that I am so weak.
Dariush said aloud: then come in.
5 man's come in office, all of them were middle aged with normal looks and luxurious attire.
All 5 man bowed at same time and greet Dariush with "greeting Lord Dariush".
The man in front of all of them eyes showed something underneath it. And Dariush noticed it immediately.
Dariush thought for a moment: they don't look promising. I can be friendly, but I don't want too. Then I will be indifferent with them.
Dariush leaned forward, elbows on desk and said: welcome to my mansion. Now go to the point, I don't like wasting time too much.
Another man with cocky smirk said: oh please, we just want something small. We want to give you... A lot of gold and servant as many as you want.
Dariush narrowed his eyes and said: and what do you want instead?
Another man with dark gaze on Eira said: your wife. She is beautiful and our king want her for the prince.
Eira flinched. Dariush didn't, he said: I refuse.
The same guy in front said: and we didn't asked for permission— he pulled out a revolver and shot dariush in stomach.
Dariush eyes widen as he looked at his stomach.
Dariush collapsed back on chair Clenching his stomach and groaned loudly. Eira panicked and rushed to him: dariush! Noooo!
The other 4 man grabbed eira by force and yanked her away from dariush. Dariush only can say: Eira. But he just choked out blood.
Eira resisted strongly, but one of those man used a magical grimoire that just summoned in his hand. Chaining her with a magical energy and shouted at same time: grimoire nexus!
He tried to get up but that man shot him again, this time in shoulder. Dariush groan loudly.
His last thought was: I can't.... I don't want to die here like this, and.... I will never accept death.
He saw her pleadings and crying while his vision blurred slowly and he stretched his hand but then…. He died with open eyes and his stretched out hand on desk.
This happens because dariush is in his weakest state, both in politics and physically.
.
.
.
But then he heard a Loud gunshot and opened his eyes in panics, breathing fast, clenching his jaw and chest.
Eira was at his side and said and rushed to him placing a hand on his shoulder: dariush!? What happened?! Breath my dear.
Dariush take a several deep breath and thought: what happened? Did I just... Returned by death? In time? How does it possible, I thought this is just for fantasy novels. But…. this doesn't matter for now. More importantly I need to think fast and survive everyday of my life. ——his survival instinct is very strong and it's kicked in, in right time and place. At Same time; He surveyed the room and saw no one expect eira at his side.
Dariush said aloud to eira: sorry dear, I just saw a illusion for a moment. Don't worry too much dear.
Eira sigh in relief but worry was still in her: ok, but you need blood, you lack it too much.
Dariush nodded and before he wants to say anything, a knock on door came. A butler voice comes from the outside of the door: milord, you have some guests, they came from the kingdom of "emara".
Dariush eyes darkened and thought: this time... I will kill them. I know what they want to do. I will show No mercy, even if it's going to change me and my morality; I will survive, no matter what.
Dariush said coldly like frostbite, already cutting through atmosphere: come in....
