I woke up with Blu’s heavy head still on my chest. “Blu, I need to use the restroom,” I said as I pushed at his head. Blu rumbled something incoherent and pulled his head out of my tent. After freshening up, I walked outside to find the Council gathered around my two princes. I ran toward them and stared in shock at the vampire standing in between the them. He was tall with black hair and solid black eyes. I’d heard about him before, the vampire prince. “Please accept my humblest apologies. I was a much more immature man then and very impulsive. I return what is rightfully yours in accordance with the agreement between you and the princes here. I hope you can heal her quickly for all of our sakes.” “I know you too? What kind of woman was I? Do I even want to know about my former life?” I asked in shock. The vampire prince turned towards me and I saw several emotions flit across his face before happiness settled in. “You are even more beautiful than I recall,” he whispered as he walked towards me, “and definitely more powerful.”
