SYNOPSIS
Valkyrie returns to the planet Neptune, where she will live eternally beside her father, the King of the Vampires. The vampire Eros dwells on the planet Uranus.
There appears a new vampire in Neptune, called Lyon, and Valkyrie will run the risk of being far away from her love.
Chapter 1
I returned to the planet Neptune for the second time.
This time it would be forever. I returned to live beside my father.
I didn't carry with me the feeling of fault, as I did the first time when I was in Neptune. Before, I had left behind something I regarded so precious in my life, MY MOTHER.
Now I didn't abandon her. Simply, she was not on the planet Earth. She was no more a part of that world.
I felt a distress inside my chest, a voracious longing which brought me remembrances never forgotten and they would be saved forever.
The first scene that came into my mind was when she hugged me and said I was the most important person in her life.
Nothing could separate us, not even... death.
I reflected carefully on everything she had told to me. Everything made sense, that is, her death was not her ending in my life, because she was live within me.
I remembered her every day.
That gave me will-power to reside that way, an immortal who was sentenced to live without her mother and without love from a unique vampire who I could not get out of my thoughts.
EROS...
That name was a torment in my existence. I loved him so much and that did me harm, not having him beside me. It was one of the things I should resign myself to and even so nothing changed. I was always melancholy... and unhappy.
It all would be so practical if he could be beside me, if he could love me, in fact.
How good would it would be if that was possible.
I believe I could accept my immortality without rebellion and fear.
Chapter 2
My father and I arrived at the main living-room in the castle.
I looked around and memories came flooding back into my mind - the day I became an immortal, my conversations with Eros, Bizak and Valeska.
Now none of them were present in that place now because everyone had been destroyed, except for one... Eros.
I walked to the open window and looked at the landscape which consisted of snow. The misty sky and few clouds collaborated to reinforce sorrow at that place.
I didn’t know if I could manage to live in that place for a lot of years.
My father approached me and placed his hand on my right shoulder.
“This castle is yours. I want you to be very happy living here with me!” He said as he looked at my face which was without vivacity.
I looked into his supernatural eyes and said to him, “Now I have only you in my life.”
He put his arms around my body, confirming I would have him next to me forever.
“Now you go to your bedroom. There is a surprise waiting for you!”
I blindly obeyed his request and walked through the castle in the direction of my bedroom.
Chapter 3
I walked through the corridor. The place was gloomy. Clarity coming from lit torches was not sufficient to light up the place.
We vampires love that kind of space. As usual it tranquilized our instincts and massaged our souls.
I stopped in the middle of the course, as soon as I saw a superb image, a figure with his back to me, totally motionless.
It seemed he was waiting for my arrival knowing sooner or later I would be there, before his eyes.
“EROS!”
I shouted fervently at him and my heart raced. I didn't believe he had come back to this castle, on the planet Neptune.
This had been the surprise which my father wanted to reveal to me. He had pardoned Eros.
A smile emerged between my lips, announcing my happiness at his presence in that castle.
How good it was to experience all I was feeling as I was seeing him next to me, under the same roof. I thought I could stay at that castle for all eternity, without sacrifices at all.
“Eros... it is so good to see you back!” I said as I was approaching him, however he was motionless, keeping his back to me.
As soon as I placed my hand on his shoulder and touched his dark shirt, he had a lively reaction and then he turned to face me.
I took a step backward.
“Who are you?”
I asked him, looking at his strange face and my voice sounded disillusioned.
He was young and his countenance made me remember Eros. They were very similar, athough, Eros was more enchanting than he.
“Hello!” He answered with salutation accompanied by one delicate smile on his lips.
I kept silent. However I was alert to his quick motions.
“You must be Valkyrie, ‘the Vampire Princess’!” He completed as he was astonished at my expression.
“How do you know my name?” I asked him with affront.
“Your father spoke to me.”
He approached and consecutively he placed his right hand on my hair. It was then I could see the 'symbol of Neptune’ on his arm.
Eros and he were similar in their tattoo. Eros had the engraving on his left arm and he had it on his right arm.
“My father?” I questioned as I couldn't understand his presence in this castle. Why did my father wish to make such a surprise for me?
“Are you frightened?” He questioned noting my tense face.
My eyes became more round.
“Why are you here?” I answered him with another question.
He made me confused and distrustful at the same time.
“WHY WOULD ONE CREATURE SIMILAR TO EROS BE IN THE CASTLE?”
“I believe you must ask this q
uestion to your father. After all, it was he who brought me to this castle.” The young vampire answered looking at the ground.
He knew I had not approved his presence in that place, much less in my life.
Chapter 4
I entered my father’s bedroom. I arrived at the site even though I hadn’t asked permission to be there.
His back was to his room’s door and when he noted my presence, he immediately turned to face me. He seemed to have a lot of apprehension at my presence. He knew I would come after him and ask him about his dirty trick.
“That’s my great surprise?” I asked, furious “A strange vampire in the castle corridor.”
“Didn't you like my surprise?”
“No.” I answered, becoming more agitated.
“I don't believe you did not like the young vampire!” he said and smiled at me. “He is so similar to Eros! Didn’t you think so too?”
“Eros is irreplaceable!” I shouted at my father. “You can bring ten boys similar to him and no one will have any effect on me.”
“You are a fool.”
He approached me and looked at my pale face.
“What do you see in Eros? That vampire in the corridor can make you happy!”
“You don't understand about feelings! You think it is easy to forget somebody from one night into the next day. The worst is that you think we can take the place of anybody with another who seems similar to that person.”
He grabbed my arm, impatiently.
“You are my daughter! I have not generated a creature to live dragging at the feet of one unworthy vampire!”
“I didn't ask to be your daughter!”
I tried to stop my tears. I didn't want to cry in the presence of my father, ever after all his offenses.
“I will not allow you continue as an unfortunate in this castle all for the love you feel for Eros. It’s crap!”
He freed my arm and walked away from me.
“Don't be a fool and now go away! I don't want to continue our talk.”
“If you brought that vampire to this castle with the intention of making me forget the vampire Eros, you are wasting your precious time! ...That will never be possible!”
I walked to his room’s door and stopped walking next to it, with an honest phrase suffocated in my throat.
“MY LOVE FOR EROS IS ETERNAL!”
I confessed this and stepped into the cool corridor.
I knew my father was in a rage because of my audacious attitude.
Chapter 5
The edge of the lake was one of my favorite places in Neptune. I walked to the lake, trying to diminish my agony and my disappointment after the talk with my father.
I looked at the dark water of the lake. Even though it was totally dark and without reflection, it alleviated my pain anyway.
I remained in that state for a few moments, until I felt a creature behind me. I was not alone any more. I turned my body and could perfectly see it. That expression was not unknown to me anymore. His dark clothes and his seducing look were becoming familiar to me.
“Did you follow me?” I asked as I looked into his gray eyes.
“To tell you the truth, I didn’t.” He looked at the dark clouds and looked at my face again. “I didn't answer your question when you asked me who I am.”
I looked attentively at his cheerful face.
“I am Lyon,” he said and stretched out his right hand in my direction, appealing to my courteous side.
I looked at his hand. I was resolute, not knowing if I could really accept his approach. Though he was similar to Eros, there was something confusing about him and it delayed my acceptance in respect to his person.
Perhaps it could be incorrect judgment from me as I thought he would want to take the place of Eros in my gelid heart.
It was exactly what my father was wishing for - Lyon in my heart and Eros out of it.
My fingers reached out and his hand shook mine as he gazed at my gray eyes.
“Now do you trust me?” he asked with a cordial smile.
“I am trying to,” I answered frankly. Then, I pulled back my hand, which held the fabric of my dark dress.
“Where have you come from?” I asked.
“I see your father said nothing to you with regards to me and my presence here.” He could clearly see my curiosity.
“We do not talk enough for him to tell me about you,” I explained.
“Well...” he sat down on the edge of the lake. “I came from the town of ‘pre - vampires'.”
I remained standing, listening to his history.
“One day, your father was there and when he looked at me, he thought he could give me a chance to become a complete vampire.”
My hair came against my face, after an impetuous wind invaded our talk.
“Then, he made me drink his blood and I turned into a vampire.”
“It means you are now part of my father’s lineage, like Bizak, Valeska and Eros.” I concluded and my voice sounded tender.
“Bizak? Valeska?” He frowned at me, not knowing exactly who I was talking about.
“They were also servants of my father,” I tried to explain to him.
“Why are they not here anymore?”
We gazed at each other, in seriousness.
“Both of them betrayed our species.”
I answered him but I felt stunned. The destruction of Valeska and Bizak troubled me deeply.
He stood up and walked slowly in my direction. His right hand lightly slid on my face.
“You are so... beautiful!” He said and the brightness in his eyes disconcerted my vision. It seemed I was seeing Eros before me again.
An agreeable feeling invaded my being. It seemed I was together with the creature I carried an incomparable and unique love.
Lyon took advantage of my hallucination and tried to kiss my lips, but I soon awoke and saw he was not Eros at all.
Nevertheless, his lips managed to touch my cheek, due to my abrupt movement, preventing him from kissing my lips.
“Sorry,” he said, regretful at his attitude. “I couldn't resist your beauty, Vampire Princess.”
“Lyon, your friendship is enough for me.”
“All right, we will only be good friends.”
His voice denoted he had quickly resigned himself to my wish. He seemed to wait for the proper time to try for another kiss.
Chapter 6
I walked into the enormous rooms of the castle and remembered the first time I stepped in that place. I was asleep in Eros' arms. Then Valeska and Bizak were introduced to me by my father, informing me they would be my servants, too.
I also remembered the night I got the bite from Eros into my neck and from that day I was not human any more, after I had drunk my father’s blood.
Several memories from my past invaded my thoughts. A few of them left me with a deep longing and others only sorrow.
Chapter 7
I walked into my bedroom and closed the door behind me. I walked slowly to the open window and pulled the curtains. I wanted to repose in peace, since everyone in the castle was doing the same thing.
I was discouraged as I walked to my rock bed. I was dizzy and it was not due to my necessity for fresh blood. I had fed enough.
That ill was connected to the telepathy I still possessed with Eros. For one moment I put my hands on my head and saw his image.
***
I was walking on the planet Uranus, under the strong wind and on the snow. In his dark cape his movements were slow and dim. Eros seemed to be very weak. His body curved on the ground and he didn’t even have enough energy to stand up again.
I also saw he needed help.
He needed me.
My despair made me come back and then walk in the direction of my bedroom door.
“Eros needs help!” I yelled loudly. “He needs me!”
I opened my door and hastily left my bedroom, trying to get to him in time.
***
I
opened another passage. It took me to a great empty room and in the midst of it there was a circle.
I knew that place. I had been there one time to return to the planet Earth.
I stepped forward and carefully entered the circle on the ground. The next instant I looked up at the dark ceiling with the engraving of the symbol of Neptune.
The symbol lit up. A blue light invaded my face at the same time wherein a blue energy surrounded me completely and drew me in the direction of the engraving on the ceiling. A passage emerged and my body was thrown through it.
Chapter 8
The symbol of Neptune had carried me to another planet. That is where I desperately wanted to be that moment.
PLANET URANUS
Planet Uranus bore some resemblance to the planet Neptune. It too was composed of rocks, snow and strong winds.
I walked into that darkness, trying to fight against a quick wind which appeared as soon as I arrived there. My eyes looked in all directions in the hope of seeing Eros. I was sure he was there.
“Eros!”
My voice was interrupted by the force of the wind over it.
“Eros!”
My cry was insistent, keeping time with the seconds. I needed to find him somehow. I needed to help him.
Gigantic bats flew around me and they sat on a dry tree. I felt Eros was near and I was about to meet him again.
