The silence of the night seemed endless, the dark sky expanding above their heads till the end of this rotten world. Kai looked up, finding the stars glistening so far away from him. He was still sitting on the dirty concrete road, his crystal blue eyes exploring the vast sky as he tried to find the strength to break the silence. 

Philip had let go of him, but for some reason both decided to remain seated there, their lips seals, their chests slowly rising as they breathed. It was as if they needed a few more seconds, drowned in this comforting silence at each other's side. It was better like this, sitting there, looking at the sky and the upcoming sun rather than having to face what had just happened. 

Kai noticed that Philip was wiping his tears. His eyes had turned red from crying and the vampire observed him, how his fingertips touched the delicate skin under his eyes and removed the stains of the fake tears.

"What?" Philip asked him, noticing that the prince was staring at him.

"Thanks." Kai said, averting his eyes shyly.

"You're welcome." The werewolf answered with a faint smile. "I'm glad you're alright."

"You didn't have to go through all this just for me. I would have escaped somehow." Kai told him. It wasn't really what he wanted to say though. What he meant was that he didn't have to put on this whole show, he didn't have to awaken his heart again just to be brutally reminded that this was all just a scheme. He was grateful and maybe he did sound selfish but he couldn't forget his sorrow. He had heard Philip say he loved him, that he could bear to see him die. These words, he had missed them. He had missed them more than anything else in the world. His I love you. The sound of his smooth voice as he expressed his feelings and that little smile. The happiness in his eyes. 

"I…" Philip said and rubbed the back of his neck feeling awkward. "I bit you. I had to make it up to you somehow." 

"Was that all?" Kai asked him, being a little more daring than what he used to and Philip blinked a few times. His long eyelashes casting shadows on his cheeks as his eyes showed that he was trying to think. 

"What else could it be?" Philip asked. The prince felt like the werewolf knew the answer. He was asking for reasons he couldn't explain. Kai found a little pebble on the road, it was concrete actually, a very tiny piece of the road that had been broken and he grabbed it, squeezing it in his palm as he thought if he should speak out or not. He raised his head, looking at Philip with that beautiful face and the werewolf froze for a second. Kai seemed to have that effect on him. The way his blue eyes landed on his, the soul piercing emotion, the slight parting of his plump lips and how his hair turned silver in the moonlight was breathtaking. 

He couldn't stop himself. He extended his arm and pushed back a stray lock that had escaped from Kai's hairstyle. It was soft in between his fingers, smooth like silk. "What else could it be?" Philip asked him again, this time his words coming out short, like a breathless whisper and Kai bit his lip thinking if he should actually speak.

"Could it be that you care about me?" Kai asked. He had mastered up all his courage and every ounce of mental strength he had left his body with that sentence. 

Silence once more as Philip's fingers were still holding the lock of his hair. Were they frozen? Had time finally decided to stop for them and make Kai's wish true? He couldn't know, he didn't care to know at that moment. 

Philip breathed in slowly, his hand traveling from that strand of hair to Kai's face. He traced his jaw and then the perfect shape of his pink lips, he moved to his cheek and then his eyes, he traced the straight line of his nose before his hand rested on his right cheek cupping his face. Philip's touch was so gentle, like the caress of a soft feather and Kai's heart almost exploded.

The werewolf didn't know what he was doing or why he was doing it. He simply knew he wanted to, he needed to touch him. He had wanted to touch him like this from the first day he saw him and he had been completely lying to himself about it. He wanted to touch him more, call out his name, hear him smile and laugh. He wanted him and not just for one night. Philip wanted that man in front of him so badly he couldn't control himself. Stop his hands from wanting to feel the soothing coldness of his skin.

"You're so beautiful." Philip told him as if he was charmed and Kai blinked, surprised by his words. A blush appeared on his face, spreading slowly on his cheeks and ears and the prince looked away. "What is it about you Kai? Prince of the vampires" He asked him. Kai returned to looking at him.

He smiled. For the first time he had smiled at him. Philip felt like his heart would stop. How could someone look so beautiful while smiling, how could just two eyes contain seas of happiness. There was no way Kai could actually exist, he could simply be a hallucination in his mind because he, he was simply perfect. 

The prince's smile like a sharp arrow landed on his heart and by that Philip already knew it was over. He was over. 

"What is it about you Philip? Wolf warrior of Moonshine." He asked him back and felt Philip's hand slowly move from his cheek and to the back of his neck. He gently brought Kai's face closer to his. 

Kai could feel his breath landing on his lips. He could see the green in his eyes so clearly and his mind slowly went numb. What was there to think in a moment like this? There was no space for thoughts, just feelings. Irrational feelings filled with passion and longing. With Kai's pain all those years and with that love, the love that had turned him into who he was today. 

He wanted to Kiss him. Desperately. He needed that kiss as if it was his life force. They were so close, this was his perfect moment, in the empty road, underneath the starry sky finally he would get to kiss the man he had missed for two hundred years. 

"We're done!" A woman's voice was heard and Kai's eyes popped open in surprise. Philip turned his head around and instantly stood up, leaving Kai sitting alone on the road. His heart slowly broke but he chose to ignore it as he saw John approaching.

"Boss!" The boy cried. "I'm sorry" he shouted and ran towards him landing into his arms. "I am so sorry. Please don't hate me."

"It's fine John, it's okay. Everything is over now." Kai told him and patted his back while giving him a comforting smile.

He looked over, and saw Philip standing in between his friends and him, perplexed as to if he should leave or not. He looked at Kai, then he looked at the two werewolves waving at them to come.

"Go." Kai said. "They are your people." He reminded him. "Thank you for today." Kai thanked him.

Philip had frowned with his words. He didn't expect to hear that and slightly annoyed he ran towards them, leaving John with Kai.

"Come on" Kai said.. "Let's go find Lun and Soran and get to a safe place."
