Suddenly the black couch he had chosen with so much care felt extremely uncomfortable. His tired body though couldn't react in the right way so he endured it while he stared at Soran in disbelief. The truth was these two had a long history together, a history Kai had learned to keep dear in his heart. In Bloodbound there was an Academy, the House of the Night, where all the rich families and the royals send their kids. It was actually a very scary place where your title and your money decided your fate. Kai was never bothered by it before, since he happened to be at the top but thinking back now that place was truly disgusting. Even though the horrid things that happened there he had met Soran at that place, his first friend other than Lun. He was the son of the Duke and Duchess Blackshade, some of his parent's closest friends and supporters of the monarchy.He had never met him before though because in their circle it was known that Soran was shy and didn't like people so much, that was why when Kai had found out they were going to be in the same school he had decided to find him and tease him, a childish prank.

His plan was destined to fail from the start. In a society where darkness was ruling everything Soran had been a surprising calmness. The way he liked to sing soft songs or sit under the trees in the backyard reading a book. Kai would never hurt someone like him, a person who accepted him and provided him comfort. Soran had been forced by his father to join the Midnight Division, the king's royal guard giving them more time together since he was always in the palace. They had started dating, in secret until Kai met Philip and things ended between them. Soran though still helped him when he needed it, he saved him in a way.

After all those years he still couldn't believe that Soran cared for him in that way. He still loved him and hearing someone say it so freely to him warmed his heart.

"Soran…" Kai called out, his expression showing how perplexed he was as he thought of his words. "You know that Philip and I…"

"I know, believe I know well about it." he said with a bitter smile. "But maybe now it's your chance. After what happened, maybe you can start new. It doesn't mean that we always have to do what's written for us. We were good together, weren't we?" Soran asked him with a faint smile and Kai laughed. He had a very unique way, maybe the tone of his voice, or how he spoke that always made him feel calm and relaxed. Even with all the horrors that hid in his soul Soran's presence was like a beautiful break and even though he didn't want to admit it he liked that. That he could just be around him without feeling pain.

"You make it sound really easy." Kai said. He knew though it wasn't, giving up those feelings inside of him, the love he had for Philip was nearly impossible. The vampire knew it would never happen, this kind of love was the one that easily got engraved on your heart, it stayed there like a permanent mark. Philip had ownership of his fragile feelings and he didn't even know it. With his silly jokes about attraction or wanting him, with his brutal honesty. All those things simply triggered those feelings, the need and the loneliness, they made it worse and of course the pain always followed along. Slow and excruciating.

"Because I believe that it is. Maybe everything that happened. That end you can't explain to none of us was a sign. Sometimes fate is not always right."

"I understand that, I know." Kai said and his eyes traveled at the ticking clock. He didn't know why its sound was suddenly so loud. Maybe it was a reminder as the hands of the clock moved that the time of Philip's birthday was approaching. Such an insignificant event for an immortal, birthdays. They did not matter since you were supposed to live forever. No reason to mark every year, nor reason to know. But his birthday, the twentieth birthday, would signal an explosion. Something that Kai feared from the start. He had found out about it, about the three weeks and his chest tightened simply at the thought. What would follow after? "But I couldn't be with you when I love someone else. I respect you too much, I value you and I wouldn't want to hurt you." he said and Soran took his hand. It felt cold to the touch, like his. They were the same. Raised in the same area, went to the same school, had the same rules and balls to attend. He knew how it felt while Philip was completely different.

"Kai, let me try. They are after you. You know that. I don't know the reason why but you will have to leave this place sooner or later. All I ask of you is to let me come with you."

"What about Bloodbound? The Midnight Division?" the prince asked him.

"A few years after you left I quit. I never wanted to be in the guard, I only tolerated because I could see you. I loved you from the first moment I saw you, that's why, let me come with you. With me, it will be easy. I promise."

"You will have to always be on the run and I..I don't know if I can be with you the way you want."

"It doesn't matter. I will be with you. I will take you away."

"From them?"

"Yes, I will take you away from the Bloody People. I swear."
