Philip hadn't taken his eyes off of him. He watched him as he cried in his sleep, as he whispered words he couldn't understand and while his fever rose only to cause a seizure.
He felt hopeless and above all he felt guilty. He was the one that had caused this. He had gotten loose and attacked him. Yes, someone, Mika to be exact had tampered with the chain, there was no doubt about it but still, if he hadn't been so reckless, so overtaken by his instincts he wouldn't have bit him. Kai had begged him to kill him, that was the thought that made his heart hurt the most. Why would he want to die? Why would he want to end his life like this? He couldn't fathom the thought, he couldn't find an explanation as to why. If they saved him, which they had to, he was going to make him speak. Out of curiosity, yes, nothing more than that.
Kai had relaxed a bit in the last minutes. He still looked in pain but there was something different to his expression. Philip guessed that he was dreaming and as it seems it was finally a good dream. He had a faint smile on his sweaty face and the wolf approached him, sitting on the ground next to the couch, hearing the sound of his steady breathing.
"What are you dreaming about?" He asked, realizing this was the first time he had seen Kai do something that was similar to smiling.
The vampire prince was indeed buried deep into a dream. An actual reminder of the past and he traveled in it, as if he was watching the sweetest movie of the world. Such good actors with the most beautiful scenery. He loved every bit of it, from the start till the very end. Because this moment that had turned into a movie was one of the most caring, one that was the most unforgettable and the one that could easily cause him so much pain as it surfaced during his hardest times.
"Your eyes hide the secret of the universe." A deep voice said.
It was him, the one and only. Philip. He was laid on a bed, his half naked body wrapped by silky bloody red sheets.
They were in Kai's room, in secret of course. He was back home, at the tall castle with the scary towers. He had traveled back, two hundred years ago and somehow he had found himself in his warm embrace.
His room was spacious, dark and the heavy scent of vanilla and night flowers filled the air. His bed was dressed in red sheets, silk so smooth it slipped through your fingers like water. A chandelier, golden hanging with gems hanging from the ceiling, candles burning deemly into Bloodbound's endless night.
The balcony door, a beautiful glass door shaped like a bullet forged with black metal in elaborate shapes was open, the black curtains dancing inside as the wind instructed them and Kai could see the blood moon above them, the many houses and the dark mountains from the little line that was left between the two curtains that hid his bed from the rest of the world.
"That is quite romantic, isn't it?" Kai said as he looked up at him.
He was there too, laying right beside him, his head resting on his arm and he felt his lips kiss the top of his head. He smiled, feeling absolutely peaceful for the first time in a while.
"Romance aside, kind sir, I do believe that."
"It's not sir, it's your highness" Kai said with a cocky grin and Philip rolled his eyes. Back then Kai used to be very obnoxious, a spoiled young man but Philip loved him, beyond that twisted side of himself, he loved him and loved him until the vampire couldn't help but love him back because the greatness of such love was too much to bear alone.
Slowly Philip had become a part of him, he owned a piece of his heart and even though their love, their need and desire was a secret, so well hidden that sometimes someone would wonder if it was even real, Kai always knew it existed. He felt it, burning on his chest, a fire that even he could never put out.
Philip's eyes, his perfect body and his charming smile. The kindness in his voice and the patience, every little bit of him was so different from Kai but still the vampire couldn't stop looking, he couldn't stop wanting and kissing him. Because every kiss was a dose of little bliss. Every touch was a release from their curses even just for a few seconds.
"Your highness... you're third to the throne, I wouldn't be so cocky" the werewolf told him and Kai sat up, the sheets sliding off his body, revealing a lean torso and fair skin, pale, as if he was close to dying.
"That's the best part, you fool. I get all of the nice treatment, the gold and I don't have to do anything. I'm telling you being the youngest is a blessing." He said and raised his eyebrows up and down making Philip laugh.
Kai never really considered himself extraordinary at anything, even if he liked to show otherwise. But that changed the first time he made Philip laugh. Without realizing it he felt like the happiest person in this world, the moment he knew he was the reason to cause his laughter. Maybe Kai was not really talented, not very smart or even good at fighting , maybe he was but the one thing he was most proud of was this. Making Philip laugh, his greatest achievement.
"I think you should calm down a bit, my love. No need for your siblings to start thinking about getting rid of you."
"That will never happen, everyone adores me."
"What if they find out about us?" Philip asked and suddenly the mood in the room turned cold. The prince looked at his lover, their eyes meeting in a silent anxiousness and Kai tried to laugh it off.
"That will never happen either but tell me about the thing you said."
"You know! About my eyes." The prince said, fluttering his eyelashes charmingly. Philip smiled and caressed his cheek. His hand was warm against his icy cold skin and he relaxed, letting him touch him as much as he wanted, letting Philip give him life. His hand was so big, almost bigger than his cheek and the prince was reminded that this man in front of him, this Wolf Warrior was so different, worlds apart from him.
"Your eyes hide the secrets of the world, no maybe of the entire universe." Philip said and the vampire smiled.
"And why is that?"
"Because in them hide the pitless oceans, the endless seas and the clearest lakes. The bright blue sky and the angriest rivers. Your blue is what makes the world flow." Philip told him, making Kai's heart flutter.
"I think I know now why we are a perfect match." Kai said and Philip raised his eyebrow in question. "Because your eyes hide mother earth, the tall trees and the rocky mountains, the open fields and the most beautiful flowers. You and I, we can make our own world, away from everyone." He said and the next second Philip had jumped onto him making him land on the bed while laughing.
He kissed his cheeks, then his nose, and his chin before he passionately kissed him on the lips. Kai cupped his face and brought him closer, deepening their connection.
He loved him, he loved him so much it hurt.
"Did you like what I said?" Kai asked.
"I did. I really did. Our own world, somewhere we could simply be. I wish that would come true one day."
"I am a prince, ask for a castle and you will have it."
"Will you be there with me though or will I be haunted by the constant reminder of your gift that I cannot have you?" The wolf asked him and Kai's face turned sad.
"Should I...give it up?"
"What?"
"My crown."
"No. You were born to be a prince. No one is as spoiled, bad mannered, reckless and all the bad things I can think of as you" he teased him and Kai slapped his arm.
"I am serious." He said and Philip kissed his forehead. "You will leave soon. Who knows when I will be able to see you again?"
"You will see me, the same way I will. In our world, in our dreams." Philip said and tears gathered slowly in Kai's eyes. "Oh, please don't cry, you know it pains me so much when you cry"
"I can't hold it." Kai said while sniffling and Philip smiled, wiping away the shiny tears. "Philip...I…"
"Your highness!" A female voice cut his words and both of them looked at the door of his room in distress. "We heard noises, please open your door. It's an order from the queen, your mother" she said.
...
