Chapter 5
Valentin returned to his mansion. He was terrified. In his transition from consuming human blood to animal blood, he had to control the instincts produced by the fact of smelling even a minimum amount of human blood. He knew that, if Sophie lost her virginity to him, there would be a small stain of blood that would drive him crazy, and after that it would be completely impossible to control the beast within himself.
Though this was not what really stopped him. When she told him it was her first time, a great hunch pierced his chest. He hadn't felt that for centuries, only when he met his fiancée, the great Cleopatra Vernacci. She was also a virgin when she gave herself to Valentin for the first time, and he with his venom tried to turn her into his goddess, but she carried a curse, one that led her to death in a confrontation with enemy lycanthropes.
Valentin felt the same sensation with Sophie that he felt with her, and although so much time had passed, he remembered that sensation as if it had been yesterday.
When he was already prepared to get ready to go to the big factory, his parents and his sister confronted him.
"Valentin, where were you?" Aby, his mother, confronted him. Her eyes were red and full of fire. Like the two siblings, she had supernatural abilities; she was stronger than an oak and when she became enraged there was no human or supernatural power that could stop her.
"I was taking a tour, mother. Why the question? Are you angry? Did something happen that I should worry about?"
"You are lying, son. You are not telling us the truth and the fact is your sister is far too worried about you," Morgan was the father of the Von Strudel family. He never brought his abilities to light, so many thought he was an ordinary vampire; however, he kept his prowess a secret.
"Lea, precious, tell me, for what reason are you worried about me? If you know that I know how to take care of myself, I have done it for years," Valentin approached her and gave her a kiss on the cheek. She was the person he adored most in his world.
"I know you have been where the girl from the inn is, your employee, and that is not the problem. The problem at this moment, Valentin, is that you cannot have anything with her. You cannot mix with that human."
"Are you spying on me, Lea?" Valentin looked at her with his red eyes and his moody gaze. If anything bothered him, it was his sister or his parents pursuing him.
"Please! We have had to live for centuries taking care of you from your wanderings and bad decisions regarding women, and now you complain about whether I am spying on you? It is evident that my visions show me everything bad that is about to happen."
"Are you implying that Sophie will bring me something bad?"
"Yes, little brother. She is not the one. I have seen several visions where we are in large confrontations with a killer pack, and she is there, like a great sorceress. Besides, she is the Moon of a lycanthrope. I am completely sure of that."
"No, Lea. This time I cannot believe in your visions. You are talking about something completely irrational. We are in the middle of the 21st century; sorceresses haven't existed since..." Lea interrupted him immediately.
"Since you fell in love with one thinking she was a human. Valentin, that woman does not suit you. Do not speak to her again, please. Take advantage of the fact that she has not realized your vampire condition and stay away from her. What's more, transfer her to another company, send her back to the big cities of the humans, where all that technology of cell phones exists, the internet... That pushes away any superpower that might have awakened in the calm of Charleston. Do it for our sake and for the humans' sake as well."
Valentin made a gesture of disagreement. He did not like what she was telling him at all. Lea was not always accurate with her premonitions; sometimes they did not have the meaning she said, but her words made him feel a bit of fear.
He had become obsessed with protecting humans, especially because he had a strong obsession with human women. Making them his own was something he lived with daily, but with Sophie something completely different was happening.
"Well, I am not going to stay away. I don't believe everything you are telling me is true. If she were a sorceress or were not human, I would simply feel it. You also know my supernatural abilities, and she is a simple human."
"A human whom you want to possess," Aby did not stop looking at him with fury. Valentin had always argued with his mother over his addiction to sex with human women, but this time she was thinking of the stability of their land, for they were not the only clan of vampires. There were many families inhabiting the earth; little by little vampires had been becoming extinct as a result of hunting by humans and the great wars with the lycanthropes.
What she wanted least at this moment was for what she had cared for so much for years to disappear because of a neglect by her capricious son.
"Mother, you do not understand. She is different. I cannot explain what is happening to me, but it is not just about sex. It is true that we have evolved and have had to adapt to the modern customs of the world, but that does not mean that the feelings inside me have been eliminated. I believe she is my goddess, and I am not going to rest until she transforms into that which I so desire."
"Son, I know that for years you have created a kind of obsession with humans, and it is something I do not intend to discuss. You are a far too handsome man and of course very young and attractive, but with her you cannot maintain that obsession. You must fire her immediately from the factory and make Sophie Robinson leave Charleston. She does not belong here," Morgan, in his serenity, intervened. His words were usually precise and imposing; he did not need to give an order more than once for it to be fully attended to.
"Well, no, father! I will not do it that way. She will be mine, whether you like it or not, and if I have to face an arsenal of wolves, lycanthropes, hybrids or humans, I intend to do it. She will be mine," Valentin replied defiantly.
"Have you wondered if she feels the same for you?" Lea was with her arms crossed, also defiant. Everyone was in a position of confrontation.
"I know she feels the same for me. I can feel it."
"She doesn't even know you're a vampire! What's more, she doesn't even know she's a damn sorceress. She was born in completely different times and worlds. You were born when we were in the era of conquest; she was born in a time where technology and society is a complete disaster. She is not for you, please."
Valentin vanished for a second and appeared in front of Lea. He took advantage of his height and looked over his shoulder at her; he showed her his teeth and his red eyes, challenging her to a confrontation. She also showed herself in the same position and brought out not only her teeth, but also her claws.
"Are you going to attack me, Valentin? Just for a human?"
"If you keep saying stupid things, yes!"
Aby immediately stepped between the two and, with a single shove, threw Valentin far away from his sister.
"You are not going to fight her again. She is only trying to protect you. You are going to leave the human alone; we have already said it. We have been and will be your family always. You are not going to trade us for some simple newcomer," Aby was overcome by fury.
"Everything has a solution. We must think about what we can do, Aby. Perhaps she is the goddess of our dear son Valentin. It has been a long time since he lost his fiancée; it is normal that he now wants to fall in love again. We can help him with that, of course, if she accepts it," Morgan intervened again.
"Father, that is not the problem. Whether she is his goddess is not the problem. The damn problem is that she is not an ordinary human. She is a sorceress; she is the Moon of an enemy lycanthrope. That is going to unleash a war, one that we have been avoiding for centuries, Dad, and we are not ready to endure it again. In 그 war you lost two of your children. Do you not care if you lose us too?"
Lea was completely inconsolable and distressed. The fact of seeing the future and having premonitions put her in a quite complex situation, as she could predict evil, and this time she was seeing a rather dark future.
"These are different times, dear daughter, and of course I would never want to lose you, but all of this has advanced. Humanity is different. There will be no more war, I promise you that."
"Did you not hear Elian? That something big and dangerous was approaching."
"But that has nothing to do with the girl your brother likes," Morgan approached Valentin and helped him up. He smiled at him and stood on his feet.
"Father, I love you all very much. I do not want to lose you, but do not count on me for this."
Lea disappeared from the room. She was completely indignant at the situation, while Valentin's parents were left with no choice but to support their son. At the end of the day, they were convinced that nothing more serious would happen; perhaps Lea was exaggerating.
