Ana enjoyed the calmness of the afternoon, and listened to his soothing, hypnotic voice for a while. Thoughts of a prior discussion on the vampire ceremony entered her mind, and she felt a need to understand the process better.

“What exactly do you mean by taste your blood?” She suddenly straightened and turned her head to stare at him.

For almost an hour Andree explained the details of the traditional vampire wedding ceremony.

“There will be two ceremonial daggers, sharp, with our names engraved on them. You will use the one—”

“Use? Are you telling me that I have to cut you in a room—an underground room—in the presence of hundreds of vampires? Are you for real? Are you—?”

Andree laughed and held her closer to him.

She could appreciate his gesture, but it didn’t help her feel better. It was bad enough she stood in that room the other night, under the scrutinizing glares. Adding blood to the equation wasn’t something to look forward to.

“You will cut your initial in the palm of my hand, here,” he explained, indicating a spot on his palm, right under his thumb. “I will do the same, and you will not feel a thing. Daniel will be right there with his spray. It will be quick and painless.”

“But what about the blood? I mean—”

“Nobody will attack you or me, guaranteed. It is part of the ceremony.”

“I’m not sure about it. You guys in general go crazy when you see or smell blood.”

“Ana, tasting my blood is a symbol. I am giving you my life, just as you will give me yours. It is what will bind us for eternity.” He lifted her hand to his lips and kissed her palm, sending tingles, as if a million tiny ants marched through her veins. “As I already told you, the ceremony is short, but every word we say, every gesture, symbolizes something.”

“Can’t we do all that without the blood part?” With the tingles melted away, and a nervous energy replacing them, she dared to gaze at him.

“We are vampires, Ana. Blood is life.”

She walked by his side, down the stone stairs leading to the beach.

The wind calmed the lower they descended. Not another soul on the beach for as far as he could see.

Already late afternoon, the sun offered another memorable show. The sky changed hues every second. From golds to tangerines and hot pinks, they bled into one another. The sea joined in, reflecting all the breathtaking colors.

After the last step, Vivienne stopped and tried to withdraw her hand from Theodor’s.

With one quick move, he wrapped his arms around her body, drawing her close to him. Her heart instantly accelerated, and his joined in the rush. She might’ve tried to keep her distance from him, but he had different plans.

“If you let me turn you, your lights would probably be gold.”

“What?” She quickly retreated from his embrace. Her eyes widened with terror, her lips trembled, and her breath became shallow.

“Viv—”

“Is this why you brought me here, to turn me into . . . one of you?”

Theodor reached out to her, trying to hug her close to him, but she continued to back away. Her fear spiked. He’d hoped she wouldn’t be afraid of him anymore after he’d saved her life twice. I guess I was wrong.

“It’s not why I brought you here.”

I blamed her for trying to lie to me, and what do I do? I’m such a hypocrite.

“Stay away from me,” Vivienne yelled, and tears pooled in her eyes.

“Viv, I would never hurt you.”

Finally, he caught her and cradled her body against his. Gently, he tilted her face to him and wiped her tears. I hate seeing her cry.

“Please don’t turn me.”

Her whisper hurt him. He knew she would break his heart.

“I won’t.”

“Promise me.”

Vivienne’s demand saddened him more. He didn’t want to lose her. “I promise I won’t turn you against your wish.”

Her fear filled his heart with pain. Without another word, he pressed her head to his chest and closed his eyes.

I have to find a way. I can’t lose her. Not now, not ever. Controlling her mind or altering her decision is out of the question. I couldn’t live the rest of my life wondering if she accepted me because she loved me enough to do so or because of my doing.

Two elongated shadows, desperately clinging to each other, darkened the sand behind them. The wind had stopped, but the storm inside him raged.

Theodor lifted her face to him again. Her long lashes fluttered opened, and her light-hazel eyes gazed at him.

Slowly, his head dipped. She opened her mouth as if trying to say something, but no sound came out.

His lips lightly touched hers, and Vivienne closed her eyes, forcing the tears down her cheeks. Theodor tasted her lips, sweeter than he expected. He backed a couple of inches to look in her eyes. Long lashes flew open.

Their first kiss hurt him. The salty droplets running down her face and to his lips turned what supposed to be a happy moment into a sad one. Guilt suffocated him. I made her cry.

“Viv . . .” His heartbroken whisper flew in the evening breeze.

“I want to go home.”
