chapter 18: find

Sebastian’s pov

“you still havent found it?” I asked Mark.

He bowed his head a bit, “we have people all around looking for anything that could help” he answered.

He is not giving me the answers I want right now.

I saw her, I know that Scarlet is in this city and when I find her I don’t want to find her empty handed.

“the books, the books we found in that old book shop. Where are they?” I asked him and he sighed.

“I called the library, they already put them on the shelves and searched. There is nothing these your majesty” he replied.

Even those books didn’t have anything?

I found that book from the descedants of a very old ancestor,

their ancestors were very close to Scarlet’s family.

They carried the secrets of that family for years and have many magic related secrets.

For centuries they protected them, but the new descedants wanted nothing to do with all this.

They wanted to make their own way because protecting all these secrets werents something they didn’t want to do.

They called it getting rid of generational curses and traditions.

If I didn’t want information related to the blood mark I would have made them realise the importance of the things they had.

Not everything that started back then is bad.

Not every tradition that has been past down from generation to generation is a curse.

 Some actually have genuine information that could help them in times of need.

But if they ever came back and wanted them I will give them back.

Scarlet respected certain things and wanted certain traditions to be passed down.

She was very close to the daughter of that family.

 She is now an ancestor as well, dead and forgotten.

I got up and Mark looked at me confused.

“what?” I asked him and he shook his head and followed silently.

I went to the library that I own because that’s where the information is.

I will look for this myself, sitting here and doing nothing is frustrating to me.

I spent all night walking around the city hoping that I would bump into her but nothing.

Even now I keep hoping that on my walk to the library I will meet up with her.

I got there and looked around at the books we recently bought and it was a lot of them.

Its annoying that there are so many books in the world but I cant even find the one that will help me.

So every single book in here is useless, all these millions of books in this library are useless.

 I heard someone running around the library but didn’t pay attention to them.

Mark will tell them to leave and why would I care about some kid running around.

Suddenly someone pulled me towards them.

I am a vampire and usually things like this are in slow motion.

Everyone else around me moves slowly but this time it all happened so fast.

This woman started kissing me and for a second I froze when I realised what was happening.

I was about to push her away when she begged me to kiss her back.

Actually I don’t think I would have been able to push her away because of how soft her lips were.

I was actually enjoying this and I felt myself pull her closer and her moan a little.

We kissed like that, it felt so familiar, like I had my Scarlet in my arms again.

I would never forget that feeling, the feeling for having her in my arms and kissing her.

That was it, that feeling filled with fire and passion.

The feeling that always made me forget the world around me and focus solely on her.

I didn’t want that feeling to end so I deepened the kiss and she didn’t seem to mind.

She actually wrapped her hands around my neck and pressed her body against mine.

Damn I missed this fire and passion.

Soon the girl pulled away and her eyes landed on me.

She gasped as she looked at me, she seemed surprised and I looked at her trying to process where I saw her.

“its you” she said and I was just looking at her not knowing what to say to this girl.

“its really you, I am sorry but just one more time” she said and pressed her lips against mine again.

I didn’t resist because I wanted this probably more than she did.

After a few minutes of making out she pulled away and looked at me.

She bit her lips a bit, she then started walking away in a very suspicious way.

I watched her walk away and my heart sank, that face of hers came to my mind.

Ohhh shit, if you take out the black hair, the brown eyes she looks exactly like Scarlet.

And when I was kissing her, it felt like I was kissing Scarlet.

That was her, that was Scarlet, I quickly ran outside and looked for her but nothing.

I know I should feel depressed and dejected that I lost her again but I don’t.

I found her , I found her right here in my library and we kissed.

She kissed me and enjoyed my touch, she doesn’t remember me but she remembers my kisses.

Plus when she saw me she didn’t freak out but smiled at me and seemed thrilled.

“your majesty, a girl, black hair and brown eyes took what seemed like a letter. It was in the books you bought previously. They didn’t look through them throughly, I am sorry” he said.

He looked at me confused when he saw me smile.

“let her keep it, its more important to her than it is to me. Anyways I will find the letter when I find her” I said and he frowned.

“the girl who took the letter, I met her, I realised too late because she was already gone. Its Charlotte”I explained and he smiled.

“so you met up with her sir? That great news, and if she is doing this it means she is looking for answers” he said.

And if she is looking for answers it means that she wants to live.

Those that put effort into something, that look for the truth or go soul searching means they want a reason to live.

That is good, thank you so much Charlotte.

Thank you for being strong enough to search for answers.

I hope that these questions lead you to me.

Or that the answers lead me to you,

I wonder, who will find who first next time?

That first time I found you, the second time as well and today you found me.

Will you find me again Charlotte?
