The Vampire Dream

3741 Words
**Seraphim’s POV**   I felt Seth’s blood quenching my thirst. The thirst that I’ve had for centuries of sleep that I had underground. But I still want only one blood, my mate’s.   I woke up from my long slumber when I heard Seth whispered his name… Jinri. I knew it was impossible that he lived because I was there when he died. He was human and can never live for hundreds of years, he was supposed to be bonded to me and outlive his mortality but like any other vampires, he died after a silver knife struck his heart. I already knew that when I fell in love with him. I’d give everything to turn him into someone like me, but he doesn't want it. He wanted to stay as human as he could possibly be.   //FLASHBACK//   “I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be a vampire,” Jinri said and pulled away from my embrace.   “Why? Don’t you want us to be together?” I asked with pain in my voice.   He walked towards the falls, the same falls where I first saw him. This was our meeting place.   He turned around and smiled at me, “of course I want to be with you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. But, not as a vampire. I want to stay human; I want to grow old. I want you to see me grow old.”   I stood up, huffed in annoyance, “and you’ll wrinkled and withered, and eventually you will…”   I stopped when I was about to say the most dreadful word in the human’s world.   “What? Eventually I’ll die?” Jinri asked chuckling.   “Please don’t say that,” I felt pain in my heart.   He walked towards me and held my hands, “Seraphim, would you stop loving me if I’m old?”   “No.”   “If I’m withered or wrinkled? Would you stop loving me?”   “No.”   “If I die, would you stop loving me?”   I looked deeply in his eyes. He wasn’t scared of dying. He had no fear like any other humans I met, he is not even scared of me. But I felt fear of not seeing him smile for me anymore.   “I don’t want to think of that but I will not stop loving you, even if that is our situation.”   “Then stop asking me about being a vampire, I will stay human as much as I can. After all, you love my warm blood better if I’m human.”   //FLASHBACK ENDS// His laughter echoed my memories. My eyes flew open and realized my mouth is still buried in Seth’s neck. I was seeing different memories of Seth’s life. The life he lived while I was asleep.   I could hear Seth’s moan in my ears. I gave him the pleasure of having my hand on his length up and down. His blood tasted better when he is all in lust. I was enjoying it until I saw someone’s face. Someone that I knew even with my eyes closed.   /Jinri? /   Seth’s memories gave me the details of his face, I can never mistake it for anyone else. It was him, my love, my mate. The reason of my existence and the reason I woke up from my slumber.   His smile, his hair color is different and his eyes are still brown, but it was the same exact feature. The only difference is his clothing. He bumped into Seth. That ambrosial scent in Seth’s memories made me close my eyes. I felt my heart beat faster. My eyes grew wide as it opened and my pupils dilated.   I felt the surge of lust from the memories of tasting Jinri’s blood again in my mouth. I heard Seth moan louder and he ejaculated in my hand. I let go of his neck and felt my entire eyes turned luminous red than what it already was.   I opened my mouth and tasted my fingers mixed with Seth’s blood and c*m. I kissed his cheek and laid him down on the floor. I may have exhausted him, he needed to rest. I leaned my forehead on his and closed my eyes. My second in command would always do everything for me, even if it means giving up his life.   I opened my eyes, stood up and walked towards the balcony. I growled towards the sky as loud as I can, sending my message to every vampire in the world. Their king is back and anyone who had betrayed me will pay for what they did.   I inhaled the faint scent of Jinri and breathe through my mouth. I couldn’t wait to find my mate’s reincarnation, I wanted to know how much he resembled him.   “Welcome back, my lord,” Seth stood next to me.   I glanced at him and smirked, “I’m sorry for what I did. I couldn’t hold back; I was too thirsty. I do not want to be this thirsty once I get close to Jinri’s reincarnation.”   I felt a small smile spread across my lips. I would have the chance to meet him in this lifetime.   “Where were you my lord?” Seth wrapped a blanket around my shoulders since I was still naked.   I faced him then walked inside the room, he followed. I sat down on a chair and he sat next to me.   “I was asleep.” I looked at him and he just bowed his head, looking embarrassed.   “You changed Seth. Your face looks different than the last time we were together. Time changed you.”   “You were gone for so long sire. I had to adapt to everything that revolves around me. In human’s eyes I’m actually twenty-three.”   I smiled, “well I do not have anything against it, it suits you.”   “Sire, a blanket doesn’t suit you though. Let me give you a bath?” he smiled.   “Yes, I would love a bath.”   Seth took me to another room. It had elegant designs on it. He gestured me to get in to the warm water inside a huge white marble tub. He got in with me, he let me lay the back of my head on his thighs.   He started wiping the dirt on my hands, one after the other.   “What year is this Seth? Your memory gave me a great deal of information.”   “It’s 2018, my lord. It's the 21st century. I will teach you everything that I know so you can adapt easily.”   I smiled. Three centuries had passed by.   I closed my eyes, “Tell me about him, how did you find Jinri’s reincarnation?”   “I just happened to smell the scent last night and saw him. I called your name and here you are.”   I thought of his face again through Seth’s memory, “he looks like him. He may be different, but he is him.”   I’ve had hope build up in my heart. I may be the strongest vampire because of being the last line of royalty to Dracula, however I have been weakened since my mate died. I haven’t drunk any human blood since the 1800s. It was a very painful memory for me.   “My lord?”   I opened my eyes when Seth patted my head gently.   “I feel your pain again. Now that you’ve awakened, I want to know what happened. Where did you sleep? Where did you stay all these centuries?”   I didn’t answer him, it was too painful for me to relieve the memory. All I know is I wanted to lay next to my mate, even when his body was no longer warm.   “Show me his reincarnation. I want to see him with my own eyes. Maybe, just maybe, my heart would beat again.”   * * * * *   Seth dressed me up, appropriate to the year now. I was amazed that the way humans dress now is something unusual but to my liking. He cleaned my face and fixed my hair as what it was before.   Because of my kin’s blood, I have a reflection in the mirror. I wouldn’t be mistaken as a vampire since ordinary vampires do not have reflections. Royalties like me and Seth have reflections.   “You look rather dashing, my lord.”   I looked at him and Seth himself dressed perfectly as well.   “I’ll introduce you to my subordinates. Come sire.”   I followed him outside. As soon as he was out the door, I heard gasped from them outside. I heard a woman cried.   I stepped out and they were all quiet. The woman embracing Seth hid behind him. I looked at all of them. One by one they all kneel before me.   “My king, this is Cherry. She’s a young vampire.”   I extended my hand to her; she was shaking when she gave me her hand.   “I’m sorry your majesty. I was so scared of what I saw. I’m a newborn vampire and I didn’t know it was you.”   “Do not worry child.” She was still trembling.   “Look at me Cherry.” I said.   She slowly lifted her head and stared right into my eyes. I see my reflection in her brown eyes. Her lips slightly parted. She slowly leaned closer.   “Is this your mate Seth?”   Seth chuckled, “I somewhat call her my playmate sire.”   I looked at him, “playmate? Like a child’s playmate?”   “Yes, my lord.”   “Hmmm…” I brushed her black wavy hair away from her cheeks. Rubbed my thumb on her jawline down to her neck.   “Would you want to play with me sire?” she asked quietly.   “No.”   Cherry blinked and she was back to her own self. She lowered her head embarrassed. I gestured for her to go to Seth’s side.   Another young man walked towards me. He lowered his head and bowed.   “This is Hobbs, my lord.”   “Another playmate?” I raised one of my eyebrows at Seth.   He quietly chuckled and nodded.   “My lord, where are you headed to?” Seth asked when I was about to walk away from them.   “I need to see him. I want to know if he really is his reincarnation.”   Before Seth could protest, I disappeared and materialized in front of a building. I looked around and started walking in a certain direction. The humans walking towards me were all smiling lustfully at me. I stop as soon as I smell the ambrosial scent that lingered right where I stood.   I looked around, thinking that he would be somewhere close to me. Then a light flickered by the window in the building across the street. It was not too far from where I appeared. I look up and there he was.   He was holding something in his hand. He was engrossed on it so much. He brushed his hair away from his face. He moved in a different way but he still looks the same.   He picked up a cup and sipped from it and then he sat by the window. He picked up a book and made himself comfortable. At that moment I imagined him back at the mansion, it was the same way he does when he is lying in bed, he reads books.   I stared at him for I don’t know how long. He opened the window, and that made his scent more profound. I inhaled it as it mixed with the wind, I couldn’t hide the emotions I felt. I knew my eyes are as red as the color of his blood right this moment, from excitement.   His scent embraced my throat and my heart. I felt happiness knowing he lives in this century. Questions started to appear in my mind. How old is he now? Would he be scared if I show myself to him? Would he remember everything? Would his memory of his past life come back to him? What could his name be?   /Does he have a mate? / the most important question I want an answer to.   In his past life he never had anyone. I was his first on everything. It made my heart ache. He suddenly smiled and it was still the same smile I knew.   I longed for him, I longed to touch and feel his skin on mine. His warm hands playfully touching my bare body. I longed to kiss him and make love to him again.   I stood there watching him, I swear on my life, whether he remembers me or not, I will have him next to me again. I will protect him even if it means I have to turn him to someone like me.   I whispered at the winds, “I will do everything to make you mine again. This time I will never let you go… Jinri...”   He looked up from the book that almost fell from his hands, it’s as if he heard what I said. He looked down and saw me. He moves to look closer, feeling that he knew who I was.   “Hey babe!” He turned to the direction of the person who called him from inside his room and the book fell from his hand. I back away and hid myself from the dark part of the street. I saw him look outside again. He was looking for me, I know deep in my heart that he saw me and he somehow knew who I was. A smile spread across my face.   “We will meet soon, my love.”   **Jinri’s POV**   I walked inside my room holding my phone in my hand. I was hitting the like buttons for Ivory’s photo gallery. She had so many followers on ** already. I was reading all those nice comments about one particular medium she used for her photos, me. Everyone loved the photos she took of me, which sometimes I didn’t know that she took them.   There is this one picture, were I was seated on the rocks, playing with the water on my feet. It was a hidden waterfall we found while we were hiking along the forest. Good thing we didn’t get lost, since I seemed to remember the way too well.   The background was so serene, and I had a smile sweetly spread across my face. The water falls beautifully from the top and how Ivory captured it was just captivating, I fell in love with my own photo. Somehow that place looked very familiar to me, Ivory didn’t tell the people at the gallery where it was taken because I told her that I want to preserve the beauty of it by keeping it hidden from the world.   The place suddenly became very special for me. I told Ivory that I had a deja vu about the place, like I’ve been there before, I just can’t remember when.   I picked up a cup and sipped from it and then I sat by the window. I picked up a book and made myself comfortable. I moved to open the window. The wind blew on my face gently as if it kissed me.   Then the wind blew a little stronger this time, the book I was holding almost fell to the floor. That’s when I heard someone called my name.   “Jinri…”   It sounded like a soft whisper in my ears, as if it was a message written in the wind. My eyes darted outside my window. I stared across the street, to a man standing under the small tree, almost hidden in the dark.   I can’t see his face clearly, but I knew he was staring at me. I lean closer so I could see him clearer. For some reason my mind told me that I knew who I was looking at. I lean much closer; I knew that even if it was dark that he had a small smile on his face. I was about to call the man’s attention when Ivory suddenly barged in my room.   “Hey babe!”   Her loud voice made me jump, the book fell on the floor this time.   “Oh my god Ive! Can you try and knock sometimes?”   She laughed, “since when did you do that for me? You come crashing through my door all the time. Be it I’m naked or not! I’m just returning the favor.”   “Whatever!” I looked outside again and the man was not there anymore.   I was probably mistaken but I still tried to look outside again. There were a lot of people walking by the street. He was probably looking at another window.   “Hey I will open the gallery early tomorrow. You want to join me?” Ivory asked.   “Yeah, okay sure. I’ll sleep early.”   “Okay goodnight. Sleep tight!” she waved at me and closed the door.   I decided to close the window. It was pretty chilly, I decided to take a warm shower. I was enjoying the warm water when I heard my bathroom door creaked open. Ivory always does that so I wasn’t scared at all. Then I heard my name again.   “Jinri…” It sounded like the wind whispered to my ears.   I turned and since the warm water caused fog inside the shower, I couldn’t see clearly.   “Ive? Babe, is that you? You need something?”   She didn’t respond. I shrugged it off and finished my bath. I walk back to my room and did my evening routine. I usually sleep with my boxers on but this time I decided to sleep naked.   I pulled the sheets to cover my body and turned off the lights. I stared at the ceiling full of glow in the dark stars and in seconds, I fell asleep. Little did I know, someone else was already in my room. He hid himself in the dark corner watching me quietly.   I started to dream. I was back at the waterfalls; it was the same falls Ivory and I took my picture from. I smiled and stepped on the warm water. It felt so real I was enjoying it.   Then suddenly, two hands appeared out of nowhere and covered my eyes. I was surprised but my dreams said I knew who it was.   I lifted my hands to touch it. The hands were so smooth and soft. I rubbed my thumbs as I held it. Warm familiar hands.   “Who is this?” I asked with a smile on my face.   “It’s me…” said the sultry voice I immediately fell in love with.   I pulled his hands away and turned to look at who it was. My eyes darted right away to his parted lips. I was mesmerized by the pink lips I was staring at. It slightly open showing beautiful set of pearly white teeth. Everything was okay until a drop of blood fell on his white shirt. I looked at it closer and I’m sure it was blood.   My beautiful dream turned into a nightmare when I watched more drops of blood came out of his mouth. It trickled down from the corner of his lips to his neck. My eyes widened in shock. I suddenly looked at his eyes, and didn’t even see his face.   From brown eyes it suddenly turned red. Razor sharp canine teeth showed up on his mouth. He pulled me all of a sudden and sunk his teeth on my neck.   I woke up screaming in my bed. Ivory came rushing through the door.   “Oh my god what happened?” She was so worried she clutched my face with both of her hands.   I was gasping for air holding unto Ivory’s hands, “oh my god you’re sweating! What happened?”   She looked so worried, “Are you okay?”   I looked at the window and it was already morning.   Whatever I saw in my dreams, it all seemed real. It was so real I felt those fangs sink into my skin.   I stared at Ivory’s eyes, it wasn’t red. I was breathing heavily and touched my neck, trying to make sure I didn’t have any marks on it.   “Is my neck okay? Is it bleeding?” I asked terrified.   Ivory laughed at me, “did you watch a horror movie again last night before you sleep?”   “No, I slept right away.”   “Then it was just a nightmare. Stop watching too much horror, okay?”   I chuckled nervously.   “I cooked us breakfast, get up so we can go to the gallery early and maybe sell some of my photos,” she smiled and kissed my forehead.   As soon as she got out of my room, I went to my bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. My neck was okay, but my face was burning red and my hair was a mess. It’s like I had a morning s*x. I laughed at myself.   Then those red eyes flashed before my eyes again. Why did I have such a dream? I’ve never had that kind of dream before but whatever it was, who was the guy that I saw?
