Lun had been very displeased with the course of events. From beginning to end he had found himself being dragged around until he was sent off like a package to one of his psychotic exes. He had no other choice though, he didn't want Kai or anyone else to die, he also couldn't stand Xan's bickering. Sitting in the back seats of the unknown car, a driver leading him to the vast unknown, he tilted his head to the side, touching the cold window. His breath fogged the glass and he separated the whiteshish patch with his index finger, looking depressingly outside. Deep into the night, the street lights his own companion as they shone yellow above his head. He had spent a huge part of his life in the dark, unable to walk under the sun so he didn't mind. The night sky, the chill of winter and the dark shadows forming in the people's faces as they rushed to leave, scared of the monsters that hid in the far away corners of the world were all part of his life.
He sighed, looking at his palms. Many times ever since he had come here he had thought that he missed home. BloodBound, a land of immortals, a rift in the universe that was filled with abnormalities, a place where he and many more could hide behind a front. The front of the crown prince, the front of the rebellious teen, the front of the mafia son. Everything was neatly settled, a tag around your neck so you would never forget but once you stepped outside the red sun and the horrifying castles, once you left the dirty muddy roads at the slumps and the squeaking of the rats died down you ended up not knowing who you were.
Lun wanted to go back sometimes, finding himself troubled by how here he wasn't anyone. He wasn't judged and he wasn't feared. Xan wasn't his prince and Kai was just his friend. He felt as if the order of the world had changed and that confused him.
As they left the city behind the vampire noticed the scenery changing into the one he too had chosen for a place to live here. Maybe it was the same for all supernaturals. Too many people, too many curious eyes were annoying. He had lived on the other side of the city but there was definitely a pattern. Low hills with green grass and then behind them an endless forest with tall and old trees.
The car stopped abruptly at the beginning of the forest and the driver turned off the engine. He opened his door and stepped out, getting to Lun and signaling him to step outside. The vampire rolled his eyes, getting off too and watching how the forest stood proudly, like a monster ready to devour him.
"Of course I would have to walk." he mumbled.
The driver and he hadn't exchanged any words. The man walking in front of him, dressed in all black acted simply like a guide, he wouldn't even look at him and Lun wondered for a second if he was actually going to go after him if he tried to run away. He was sneaky like that from time to time and well, he wasn't the kind of man to resist his urges so he let the man walk and walk, standing behind him until they had a good distance between them and then he changed his course, turning to the right and leaving the man made path he had been on for a while.
Lun scoffed as he turned his head and realized no one was following him. It seemed almost ridiculous to him. The man had been charmed, he realized. Of course, witches did not let men around them easily. Smart move, the vampire thought as he looked around him, examining the forest.
He had been walking for a while, wondering why he hadn't found himself outside yet. He had a pretty good sense of direction and he did try many times to simply teleport out of the forest and in front of the car. He was sure the witches wouldn't mind if he tried to steal it, or something.
As he looked around, the scuffed tree trunks, the needles of the pine trees on the ground and the soil dirtying his shoes he found himself going in very boring circles. He laughed, pushing back his hair as his voice echoed in the silence of the night. Of course the man would not be the only one enchanted here.
His brown eyes traveled from tree to tree, searching for a pair of eyes, the shadows of a figure, anything that would give away the presence of another person but he could see nothing.
"Alright. Alright." he said, knowing that someone was definitely listening. "I won't try to run away anymore so how about you come out now my dear?" he asked, looking towards many different directions, waiting with a grin on his face until the sound of footsteps reached his ears.
Her wild curly hair framed her face beautifully and the moment she appeared many memories flashed in Lun's mind. Not particularly that good but he ignored it. He had met that woman years ago, when she was so young and now the innocence of not knowing of the world had disappeared from her green eyes. "A little bird told me you wished to see me." he said with a smirk on his face and the woman smiled, tilting her head to the side.
"Well, not exactly see you…kill you would be best."
