My Vampire Guy

Chapter 25: The House With Roses



The last days in the castle passed quickly.

When the last calendar of the old month had just been torn up, Samson, Maris, and Lucasta all prepared to pack their clothes to move to the city.

Because Maris is worried about Samson and the blonde, she wants to follow them to see how he arranges their future lives.

She wanted to see it with her own eyes so that she could feel reassured because if she stayed in the forest and imagined it, she would be extremely uncomfortable.

When night fell, they set off together toward the edge of the forest.

Lucasta took the flashlight and walked ahead, while Samson and Maris took their things and walked behind her.

Sometimes when she passed through places where the trees shaded the moon, she turned to shine the light at their feet because she was afraid they would stumble if they couldn’t see the way.

– No need, Lucasta. Just shine the flashlight forward. I can see you. – Samson spoke up.

– Yes, Samson and I can see through the night.

As Maris finished speaking, Samson turned to her and glared. She panicked and realized she had made a mistake.

Luckily, Lucasta just thought it was a joke, and she burst out laughing.

The moment the three of them stopped at the edge of the forest, the lights from the luxury car also flashed.

Through the glass door, Harvey was surprised to see three people in front of him. Today, he still buys the same amount of food and necessities as usual.

If he doesn’t buy more, why do they have to mobilize so many people?

However, when he saw the bags next to their feet, he knew they were about to leave the forest.

– What’s up? – Harvey pulled down the car’s window and asked.

– Maris, please put Lucasta in the car.

Maris nodded and did as Samson told her. She took Lucasta’s hand and pulled her forward and pushed her into the back seat.

In the driver’s seat, Harvey also unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car to face his annoying friend.

– Will you go to the city once every three months? – Harvey put his hand in his pants pocket and asked.

– No. This time, live there. Until the end of life.

– End of life? How many thousand years?

– I mean Lucasta.

Inside the car, Maris and Lucasta could not hear their conversation because Harvey had closed the car door, completely soundproofing.

Maris only saw that the situation seemed tense at first, but gradually the two of them relaxed.

After a nod of approval and a gentle pat on Samson’s shoulder from Harvey, the two of them got into the car.

The plan to return Lucasta to where she belongs has convinced Harvey.

When Lucasta can get used to the outside world, the relationship between the vampire guy and the human girl will also end.

The deadline that Samson set for himself was one month.

The car sped along the deserted road and stopped in front of the gate of a house with a classic design.

Because Samson bought this house in Aurora’s name, Harvey was completely unaware.

That winter, right after Lucasta recovered from her illness, Samson silently went to see Aurora and asked her to help him buy a house for Lucasta.

He had thought that when the blonde girl grew up, he would tell her the truth and this house was his gift to her.

However, his heart has changed and if it wasn’t for Lucasta who wanted to set foot in the city, he would have kept this secret until she remembered.

– Is this our home, Samson? Lucasta exclaimed excitedly when she saw the white gate decorated with rose branches.

– Yes, we will live here.

Samson answered and opened the car door and got out, took the spare key to open the gate.

Harvey also stayed to help people carry their belongings into the house.

Because Aurora still comes and cleans the house every week, the house is quite clean. The furniture was just bought by Aurora a few months ago, so they don’t need to buy anything more.

– In a few days Lucasta will come to work at Star Corporation. She doesn’t have any expertise so you let her do the errands.

Harvey paused for a few seconds at Samson’s compulsion.

Didn’t this guy say that training the girl to be independent to cut ties?

This is more like a transfer of responsibility.

Harvey himself doesn’t like to carry extra burdens and troubles.

For example, if Lucasta fell in front of him, he would have to help her up. He couldn’t ignore her.

He didn’t like to have a lot of junk happening around his busy life.

– There are no errands in the corporation. I think you should put money in the bank for her to withdraw the interest and live like Maris is fine. Harvey offers a plan to escape.

– I can do a lot of things. I can cook, bake, grow vegetables, and clean. – Lucasta approached Harvey and said.

– All employees in my company eat and drink outside. I also don’t grow vegetables at the company, so I’ll leave the cleaning job to you.

While Lucasta enthusiastically nodded in agreement, Samson let out a breath.

His sharp, sparkly gaze made Harvey feel uneasy.

Harvey was just going to tease the blonde a bit, but it looks like he’s already hurt Samson.

– I was just joking. You will take on the responsibility of distributing the documents to the departments, along with my secretary. See you at the beginning of next week.

After Harvey left, the three of them also temporarily put everything aside to go to sleep.

Samson waited for Lucasta to enter the room before he took out the bottles of dried blood from the box and shared them with Maris to bring them back to hide under the bed.

Although the house has a refrigerator, both of them still can’t use fresh blood for fear that Lucasta will know the truth.

Even though Lucasta was lying on her new bed, she suddenly remembered her old bed.

Last time, because she knew Samson only took her on a tour of the city, she didn’t remember the gilded castle. But this time it was different. He had said that he and she would live in this city for the rest of their lives.

Lucasta tossed for a long time, but she still couldn’t sleep, so she got up and went to Samson’s room.

When she reached out to push the door, she realized it was locked.

– Why did he lock the door? What should I do if I have a nightmare? – She grumbled, knocked on the door of his room with her right hand, then turned and walked away.

– Lucasta, haven’t you slept yet?

She immediately turned her head when she heard him calling. However, she did not dare to tell him that she was missing the old place because she was afraid he would take her back there.

She had a hard time getting the chance to live in this city, so she didn’t want to lose it.

– I… I’m hungry, so I want to invite you to cook instant noodles with me. – She smiled and said.

– Come to the table and sit down. I will cook for you.

Despite Samson’s words, Lucasta stood beside him to observe how he used the gas stove.

She felt modern devices were like magic.

The stove has no firewood, but it still has a fire. She sits in the house and still has a cool breeze blowing in. And she just needs to put her hand on the faucet, and the water will automatically flow out.

The important thing is that when she goes anywhere, there is light there.

Although she had read the books and knew that they were invented by scientists, she still felt that they were very magical.

Because they were afraid of disturbing Maris’ sleep, the two of them talked quietly, as if two lovers were confiding in each other.

In the following days, under his guidance, Lucasta learned how to use appliances proficiently.

She knew the way to the department store to shop and the way to the pharmacy.

He also bought her a cell phone and saved both Harvey’s and Aurora’s phone numbers in it.

– Where’s your phone number? Lucasta stared at the phone screen and asked.

– Here, I’m saving.

– What about Maris’s phone number?

– I won’t be here long. The owls need me to take care of them, so I can only stay with you for a few days. – Maris turned to the next page of the newspaper and replied.

– Then this house will only be left to me and Samson to live in the future. So sad.

Lucasta looked at the white gate surrounded by roses and let out a whimper.

She even thought the three of them would live together, and Maris would sometimes go back to the castle to take care of the owls.

Her disappointed look made Samson’s mood turn sad. He didn’t know after a month when she was left alone in this house, what would happen to her.

Will her dream of living in the middle of a magnificent city fill all her sadness and make her emotionless to forget his presence?

– Tonight, I will take you to the river with many electric lights. Samson stroked her hair, coaxing.

– Maris, please come with me. – Lucasta spoke up.

– Ok.

The hands of the clock kept spinning, and when the sun disappeared behind the buildings, the three of them also dressed politely and got into the taxi together.

Although Samson had enough money to buy a car, because he didn’t have a driver’s license and identification, he couldn’t own them.

He also didn’t want the police to arrest him.

Three months ago, he took Lucasta out and he risked driving because he thought he would only stay in the city for a few days.

When the driver saw the man sitting next to him wearing sunglasses, he got a little scared because no one wears sunglasses at night, unless they have a problem in their mind.

At Samson’s request, the car quickly went straight to the main road and headed towards the Rose river.

The reason this river is so named is that it has the shape of a rosebud when viewed from above.

This is also a place where lovers often bring each other to pray and bless their love.

– That family is beautiful. How can her parents be so young when she’s already grown up?

A couple’s whispers made Lucasta laugh with amusement.

If she could choose a wife for her brother, she would target Maris.

However, she had seen the picture of the man hanging in Maris’s castle, so she secretly guessed that the man was a very important person to her neighbor, just like Samson hanging a painting of Eirlys in the drawing room.

From the day she was explained about love by Maris, she assumed Eirlys was the one Samson loved and Vincent was the one Maris loved.

As for the whereabouts of the two of them, she dared not ask, even though she was very curious.

– Samson, what are they doing? Lucasta pointed to the lovers who were closing their eyes and holding hands.

– Ah. They are praying. People often say that when two lovers hold hands and pray on this river, their love will last forever. – Samson gently explained.

– Miraculously. In the future, I will also come here to pray with the man I love.

Lucasta said as she stepped forward, then clasped her hands and closed her eyes.

Samson bowed his head, silent.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

If possible, he wanted to be the man she talked about.

Every time he thought about Lucasta cooking for another man and laughing with that man, he felt so lost and disappointed.

However, between him and her, there could be no more feelings than temporary intimacy.
