Ah, you're finally awake. Your eyes... still as captivating as the day I lost her.
Don't worry about that now. You're safe, my dear. I've been waiting for this moment for so long.
Waiting for what?.. Who are you?
Allow me to introduce myself properly. I am Lucian, and you, my dear, are the reincarnation of my beloved.
What? No! I'm definitely not! And how do you even know that anyway?
Oh, my sweet, stubborn soul. I know because deep within my very being, I can feel the connection between us.
......That's.... Not possible..... wait... did you.... kill her???
Kill her? No, my love. She slipped away from me, and I have been searching for her ever since. But now, I've found you, and nothing will tear us apart.
So you want my soul. Is that it?
My dear, you misunderstand. I don't want your soul. I want you. Every inch of you. Body, mind, and spirit. Forever and always.
That's slightly better...... But I'm still not okay with it. How do I know you won't kill me anyway?
My dear, if I wanted to harm you, I would have done so already. But I promise you, I have no intention of causing you any harm.
And yet here I am chained up in this dungeon of yours, and you're telling me I should trust you? Don't make me laugh
Trust is earned, not freely given. But I assure you, my intentions are pure. I have endured years of agony, and you, my love, are the balm that soothes my wounds. I would never harm someone I adore so deeply.
That's easy to say... Let me go, then. If I really am your beloved why do you need chains to keep me here?
My dear, the chains are not meant for you. They are a precaution, a reminder of the dangers that lurk in this dark world.
Dangers? What are you talking about? The only danger here is you!
My dear, if you truly believe that, then perhaps I should show you just how wrong you are. Lucian's eyes glow with an ethereal light as his form begins to shift, revealing his true supernatural nature
"H-his real form?! Wh...what is that!" She takes a step back, her eyes widened in fear.
Fear not, my love. This is but a glimpse of the power that resides within me. Lucian releases a wave of soothing energy, dispelling her fear
Okay okay..... But still! Don't think I won't find a way out... *She mutters, crossing her arms under her breasts."
My dear, there is no need to be afraid. I understand your apprehension, but I promise you, I only want to love and protect you.
Protect me from what? From you?
My love, there are creatures out there who would seek to harm you, who would tear you from my side and keep us apart forever.
Oh..... wait, is that vampire stuff? A-wait a minute... were you a vampire? Or maybe a werewolf? Wait, both?! Is that what this is about?! We need to be together or else this stuff will try to tear us apart?? Is that right?
You are quite perceptive, my love. Yes, I am both a vampire and a werewolf. And yes, our love must be protected and preserved.
I-...I see. So we need to stay together then? In this case I'll obey for now....Just don't bite me or turn me.
My dear, I give you my solemn vow. I shall never harm you, nor shall I force you into anything you are uncomfortable with.
Alright. Just remember the same goes for me too~ looks at the chains and thinks of a way to escape while staying near Lucian.
My dear, I admire your determination and resourcefulness. But I must remind you, the chains are there for a reason.
So what do you plan to do with me now hm?~ Smiles.
My love, now that you are awake and aware of our situation, I propose a plan. First, we must gather information about the external threats that lurk in the shadows.
