My Vampire Guy

Chapter 8: Adorable Apology



When the luxury car stopped at the edge of the forest, Maris also jumped from the tree branch.

Amidst the dark shadow, the red dress makes the female vampire stand out more than ever. Behind her were large owls with fierce faces and sharp claws.

– Hello Aurora, long time no see. You’ve grown up and become so much beautiful. – Maris approached the doctor and cheerfully said.

– Hello, Miss Maris. You still look the same as before, young and friendly.

Maris smiled, reaching out a hand to stroke her loose hair.

In twenty years, no one had complimented her.

Samson never opened his mouth to compliment her on anything, even though she was dressed sexy and put on makeup, and perched on a tree branch to pose.

He just stared at her as if he were looking at a gaudy mother owl and then walked past silently.

In an instant, the bags had been placed on the lawn by Harvey. His eyes glanced at the owls and then back to Maris.

He saw those eyes were already very dark, no need to paint them anymore. And when the owl opened its mouth to yawn, he saw it had no teeth, so he didn’t know what Maris bought strawberry toothpaste for.

– I bought a lot of things today, but Samson didn’t come to help you? – Harvey asked.

– Well, no. That’s why I brought the owls. That handsome vampire guy was acting as if I were a servant. However, I also like that, he will pay me with a bottle of dried blood.

– You talk as if you don’t have money to buy blood. – Harvey put his hands in his pockets and leaned back against the car, gazing at the person in front of him.

– Of course, I don’t make any money.

She said as she gave the bags to each of the owls so that they could carry them back to the castle.

Harvey grinned and shook his head because he knew that Vincent’s fortune over the past few thousand years was a huge amount and Maris would never spend it.

Only a portion of the money deposited in the bank in Harvey’s name was enough for her to live comfortably.

– Come to my castle for Christmas. We’ll build a snowman and decorate a Christmas tree. Maybe when you go with Harvey, he will stay with Samson a little longer. Every time he just came to look and then left immediately. Maris said to Aurora, then glanced at Harvey.

– Yes, I would like to see Samson again. He’s still as young and handsome as before, isn’t he?

As soon as Aurora finished speaking, both she and Maris burst into laughter.

Vampires not only possess immortality, but even their appearance is never affected by time.

If Harvey had the characteristics of a pureblood vampire and kept the mature, elegant features of a thirty-year-old man, Maris and Samson seemed more childish than he was.

When they became vampires, they were only twenty years old. However, because Maris always likes to wear heavy makeup, she looks older than her neighbor Samson.

– Goodbye, have a nice evening.

Maris disappeared after she waved her hand.

Because she was going so fast, Aurora got the feeling that she used magic and disappeared.

Aurora’s lips curled into a sad smile.

Although Aurora knew the name “haunted forest” would protect Maris and Samson from human scrutiny and vampire hunters, she felt pity for them when they were perceived as wandering spirits by humans.

– Let’s go.

Harvey’s voice pulled Aurora out of her cluttered thoughts.

She sighed, then followed him into the car.

At the party, because Harvey couldn’t drink, she drank instead of him, so she was a little dizzy right now.

She ventured to tilt her head and lean into his arm without asking his permission. Although her mind was still awake, she wanted to use this opportunity to be a little closer to him.

– I told you it was brandy. Do not know your own strength. – Harvey’s voice sounded reproachful, but he didn’t show any irritation.

– Your girlfriend didn’t make you lose face. Are you blaming me?

She nuzzled her head into his arm and laughed a bitter smile.

Even if it was just a fake identity, she was still happy because everyone thought that she and he were a couple. Besides, the man beside her had not yet loved any girl.

He once said that if he had to love a girl, he would choose her. However, love is free, no one forced anyone.

– Please remember to take me to visit them this Christmas. – Aurora whispered.

– Okay.

– Maris said that years ago you only came and looked at the castle and then left, right?

– She’s exaggerating. I talked to Samson a few words about the situation of the corporation. He lives alone, so he doesn’t seem to want to talk and doesn’t even have anything to say. We also can’t just sit and look at each other.

Harvey finished talking and discovered that Aurora was asleep. Her hand loosened from his, and he heard a soft breathing sound.

He reached for his phone, turned off the music that was playing, and sped back to the city.

In the flickering dream, Aurora heard only the words “I’m sorry” but she didn’t know where the sound was coming from.

The darkness grew darker and darker, then gradually faded.

The night dew drops on the roof and the green leaves fell one by one to wet the fur of the owls eating the ripe fruit in the yard before the owner of the gilded castle woke up.

The owls were also smart enough to realize that from the moment the human girl appeared, Samson’s eating and sleeping time was also out of order.

Samson was tortured by Lucasta all night, so he was tired and fell asleep until now, still not waking up.

He didn’t know if she ate mushrooms and got poisoned or if she ate too many sweets.

All night last night, she clung to him and cried, then asked him to carry her to the toilet continuously, and forced him to rub her stomach to relieve her pain.

Lucasta woke up when the sun was up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw her brother’s handsome face.

His hand was still on her stomach and his eyes were closed, defenseless.

She carefully used both hands to lift his arm, put it aside, and sat up, groping to the edge of the bed.

– Are you feeling better? Has your stomach ache gone?

The gentle question caused her small feet to shrink as soon as they touched the floor.

She was about to slip down to pick up the blanket to cover him, but he woke up.

She turned her head, looked at him with apologetic eyes for a long time, then slowly inched closer to him and kissed his cheek.

– I’m sorry. – She bowed her head and said.

Samson’s eyebrows furrowed at her cute action. He had never taught her how to thank or apologize to anyone. He guessed she must have learned from Maris.

– Because I gave you a lot of mushrooms, you got a stomachache. Next time we won’t eat mushrooms anymore. Samson stroked her head and said.

– I want to eat mushrooms again. – Lucasta frowned.

– Okay, we will eat when your stomach is healthy and can only eat a little at a time.

The little girl nodded and continued to kiss Samson’s cheek and say thank you.

She also realized that she had bothered him a lot last night.

After she finished folding the blanket, he carried her downstairs so she could brush her teeth and wash her face.

Last night, when Maris returned, she ordered the owls to bring everything to Samson’s castle and place them in front of the main door. The owls also considered themselves meritorious and rewarded each other with ripe fruit around the castle grounds.

– All of them are yours. Do you like them?

He handed Lucasta a small bag of chocolates and cakes and he carried the rest of the bags.

The girl smiled amusedly and jumped back inside.

Because Samson was afraid her stomach wasn’t feeling well, he stopped giving her cake, instead; he made her a glass of cereal.

– Do you know what this is called, Lucasta?

Samson’s finger pointed directly at the words printed on the cereal box and asked the girl beside him.

Lucasta looked at it for a long time, then shook her head and continued to raise her cereal glass to drink.

– Okay, today I will teach you the alphabet. Samson’s sister could not be illiterate.

As soon as Lucasta finished drinking, he took her to the reading room and taught her the alphabet.

As well as her senses of sensations, colors, tastes, and surroundings, she quickly memorized the letters and read and wrote them following Samson’s instructions.

Because he didn’t want her to be pressured when he was standing by her side to observe, he walked around the room and picked a book to read.

From time to time, Samson glanced over at Lucasta.

He saw that her serious and attentive expression now did not look like a three-year-old child. This was the first time he saw her look like her actual age.

However, his feelings didn’t last long when she suddenly looked up, grinned, and held up her notebook to show him her achievements.

On the white page stood out the two names of Samson and Lucasta. The bottom was a picture of two people, but it looked strange, with only two circles for the head and ten straight lines forming the shape of the body and limbs.

Turns out she was just focusing on drawing this.

– You and me? He pointed at himself, then pointed at her and asked.

– Right. – She smiled and replied.

Under the flickering candlelight, her innocent eyes twinkled like stars in the sky and her smile was as bright as the sun, reminding him of his ex.

Eirlys also drew him and her.

He still hung the painting in the middle of the drawing-room, not destroying it.

– Okay, Lucasta, now I’ll teach you how to draw. Come with me.

He walked over to Lucasta and took her hand and led her to the next room.

She eagerly followed him, crooning a song that appeared in her mind, but she could not know what the content of the song was. She only knew that the tune was suitable for her cheerful mood at the moment.
