Then suddenly a gentle knock on door comes.
Dariush Farzad heart beat faster and thought to himself: calm down, it's just first person I am going to see in this world.
Then said aloud: who is it?
A woman voice comes gently yet elegantly: it's me, "Eira", your wife.
Dariush thought: my wife!?.... Calm down dariush.. Calm down... Just calm down. (He takes a deep breath)
Dariush: come in.— at same time he thought: I don't know I can call her something like dear or not. But after all, I need to be careful.
Eira comes to office. Her hair was red and long. Her pupils was black. Her body curvy and elegant. Her attire; black and fitting on her body. And her chest and hips was big, but not too much, mix of elegant and seduction.
Eira softly said: dariush... Are you ok? Because you didn't drink blood for almost 1 month. I am very worried about your health, especially now when everyone wants you.... Dead. —Concern and worry was evident in her face.
Dariush said with honesty: I am ok, but I am now weak. I just need to rise up again. But I need time too. So for now don't worry my bloody sunshine. (He said it instinctively, even he himself stunned for a moment before regaining his composure)
Eira expression softens slightly and said: I know, but... I can't stop being worry.
Dariush said: I did a lot of things and now I am seeing the consequences, but don't worry my dear, I will try my best to change myself and everything, both for myself and you. (His expression softened)
Eira stepped closer to desk and said: promise?— she said with determination and hope in her eyes.
Dariush nodded and said with a smile on his lips: I promise, just don't leave me alone, I don't have anyone but you my dear.
Eira stepped closer and stand beside dariush and kissed his cheek affectionately: I will promise too. I will never leave you alone. (She blushed slightly and smiled shyly)
Dariush thought for a moment: I need to know her intention, but for now I will act like a good husband. And fortunately I remembered some of my memories with her.
Dariush with a tired smiled on his lips said: thank you my dear.
But just after a second another knock on door comes, and butler voice comes from the door: milord, you have some guests, they came from the kingdom of "emara".
Eira straight up her posture and stand beside dariush elegantly.
Dariush thought: emara kingdom? I can remember something... They are a human kingdom. And I am a vampire Lord with a lot of vampire under my control. I think... They want something that I don't like.
Dariush said aloud: tell them come in.
5 man's come in office, all of them were middle aged with normal looks and luxurious attire.
The first man in front with black hairs and blue eyes: hello milord. I hope you had a good day until now.
Dariush thought for a moment: they don't look promising. I can be friendly, but I don't want too. But maybe I can show something like little welcoming.
Dariush leaned forward, elbows on desk and said: welcome to my mansion. Now go to the point, I don't like wasting time too much.
Another man with cocky smirk said: oh please, we just want something small. We want to give you... A lot of gold as many as you want, we want to give you servant.
Dariush narrowed his eyes and said: and what do you want instead?
Another man with dark gaze on Eira said: your wife. She is beautiful and our king want her for the prince.
Eira flinched. Dariush didn't, he said: I refuse.
The same guy in front said: and we didn't asked for permission— he pulled out a revolver and shot dariush in stomach.
Dariush collapsed back on chair Clenching his stomach. Eira panicked: dariush! Noooo!
The other 4 man grabbed eira by force and yanked her away from dariush. Dariush only can say: Eira. But he just choked out blood.
He tried to get up but that man shot him again, this time in shoulder. Dariush groan loudly.
His last thought was: I can't.... I don't want to die here like this, and.... I will never accept death.
He saw her pleadings and crying while his vision blurred slowly and he stretched his hand but then…. He died with open eyes and his stretched out hand on desk.
This happens because dariush is in his weakest state, both in politics and physically.
.
.
.
But then he heard a Loud gunshot and opened his eyes in panics, breathing fast, clenching his jaw and chest.
Eira was at his side and said: dariush!? What happened?! Breath my dear, breath.
Dariush take a several deep breath and thought: what happened? Did I just... Returned by death? In time? How does it possible, I thought this is just for fantasy novels. But…. this doesn't matter for now. More importantly I need to think fast and survive everyday of my life(He surveyed the room and saw no one expect eira at his side)
Dariush said aloud to eira: sorry dear, I just saw a illusion for a moment. Don't worry too much dear.
Eira sigh in relief but said with worry: ok, but you need blood, you lack it too much.
Dariush nodded and before he wants to say anything, a knock on door came. A butler voice comes from the outside of the door: milord, you have some guests, they came from the kingdom of "emara".
Dariush eyes darkened and thought: this time... I will kill them. I know what they want to do.
Dariush said aloud: ok, let them come in.
At same time dariush stand up, moved to front of the desk and leaned on it, crossing his arms under his chest.
The 5 man entered the office. But this time dariush noticed their disgusting and lustful gaze on eira. Dariush straight up. He was taller than those man's, he was 210cm tall, towering over them effortlessly, with a dangerous presence.
Dariush said coldly: welcome.
The man's bowed slightly in turn for a moment, greeting him with "we greet Lord dariush" at same time.
Dariush said: go straight to the point. (He narrowed his eyes, glaring at them coldly)
The man's face pale already, their hands trembling and their back. The front man said: we want to make a deal. (His voice trembled slightly)
Dariush gaze darkened and stepped closer to them, leaning down slightly, looking directly at him: deal? What deal? (His gaze becomes dagger in their body and soul)
The man face gathered his courage, to speak and said with shaking voice: we just want to make an alliance with you. (He was sweating, and his breathing was heavy)
The other man's were trembling or pale and even sweating.
Dariush smirked coldly: you want my wife, don't you?
One of the man was scared too much and sweating, pulled out a revolver to shot dariush.
Dariush didn't flinched and stepped aside to dodged the bullet.
He chargeed forward to that guy with gun, grabbing his hand and pulling closer, in instant started to suck his blood from the neck. His speed was low, but his reaction time was high surprisingly.
All of the man's stunned, eira didn't waste time and attacked, and break other 4 man legs. She doesn't lack blood, so she is strong.
The 4 man's screamed in agony. Some of them almost cried. One of man's said: please forgive us!
The man that dariush was sucked his blood his clothes fall on ground, because that man body vanished because dariush not only sucked his blood but everything within it too.
Dariush almost throw up and thought: being vampire isn't that good, it's disgusting. I just killed him by sucking his blood. (He almost throw up again, but hold himself)
Dariush turned to other man's and said: very well, who's next?
.
.
.
A few minutes later non of those man wasn't there anymore, just their clothes.
Dariush wiped his bloody mouth with a small cloth. And thought to himself: I almost lost myself in that bloodlust. But I am still feel disgusted from it. (He shivered slightly) but I need to get used to this taste. And on top of that i need to control myself better, or I might turn into a monster that I don't like.
He turned to Eira and said: thanks for helping me dear. (He gave her a warm expression)
Her eyes light up and said excitedly: no problem my dear husband. Because I do everything for you.
Dariush thought: I can't let her betray me. But I need someone to help me too. So i need to be careful with my words while talking to her. She is stronger than me, and she can kill me in any moment. Beside... I am very weak still, I can't afford to risk without thinking. And on top of that this is just day one, I have very long life to go.
Eira said shyly: dear husband, can I have a request?
Dariush paused for a moment to think and then said to her: what is it?
She blushed and said: can you....
