MY GUARDIAN VAMPIRE

Laughter that was light at first, brought a heavy ending.

Mardelia Zara Zeanne

The silence of the night revealed a crescent moon phase over the sky of the Gervinder kingdom. The wind brought a chill that was enough to make the atmosphere even more tense. A scream of pain suddenly sounded, a roar broke the silence.

“Stronger chains!!”

The man in front of him stared for a moment, the tall man couldn’t bear to hurt his best friend. Then he tied the ends of the chains to the pillars even tighter.

“Arrrghhh!!”

The screams of pain were getting louder and louder, his breath getting harder and harder to hold back the turmoil in his body.

“Hold on Jeffry!!” Jendra cupped Jeffry to provide support so that the figure inside Jeffry did not take over.

The crescent phase is a big scourge for Jeffry. The sign of the crescent moon that he has makes an evil devil residing in Jeffry trying to take over his body.

The wind was rushing into Gervinder castle so fiercely that the windows banged, making a sound. Even Jendra got goosebumps with the atmosphere there.

Suddenly all was quiet again, Jeffry with chains that wrapped almost his entire body now bowed limply.

Jendra on the other side breathed a sigh of relief. But a moment later,

“Blood! Give me human blood!!”

Jeffry growled angrily, his eyes shining as red as blood in the darkness. A moment later he laughed. It was a laugh that made Jendra swallow hard saliva now.

“Terrifying.” Jendra stepped closer to try to help Jeffry so that the soul in there returned to his body.

“Do not come close!” Now Jeffry ‘s voice takes over. Jendra’s steps stopped and looked sadly at his friend’s condition.

The devil took over again. Again, he growled furiously and screamed uncontrollably.’s nails Jeffry quickly turned long and sharp as his eyes turned black.

“What creature are you?!” Jendra, who witnessed it, shouted furiously.

face Jeffry , which had been looking down, now looked up at someone who was shouting at him. There were pointed fangs on both sides of his teeth that craved the fresh blood of a human.

‘s body Jeffry struggled in the chains that wrapped around him. Blood flowed from Jeffry because of the devil. Screams of pain along with loud laughter sounded one after another.

Jendra froze on the spot, watching how his best friend was tormented by the actions of the monster in his body. And sadly again, Jeffry experienced this during his life when the moon was in the crescent phase.

There was a faint sound of breaking from Jeffry and suddenly two mighty black wings popped out of his back. The perfect cycle is almost here. The demon will completely take over Jeffry for a while.

Jendra raised his hand to block the blinding light in his eyes. The light emanating from the carved crescent moon between Jeffry. The tattoo shone against the bright moonlight.

And finished, the perfect cycle has occurred and the Devilis now dominating.

“You are useless Na Jeffry! If you only want me to take your body, you will become the most powerful and powerful Vampire Lord!!” The demon laughed loudly, a laugh that could really make anyone tremble with fear.

Suddenly the mighty wings closed, the light from the tattoos on Jeffry also dimmed. jeffry’s body Jeffery limped for a moment. His energy was completely exhausted. face Jeffry’s lifted, his irises were the same color as before.

Jendra hastily approached Jeffry and removed the chain in a hurry.

“That FUCKING devil will keep bothering you Jeffry!”

body Jeffry collapsed in the arms of his friend, Jendra limped carrying Jeffry out of the northern castle of the Gervinder kingdom.

“There must be a way to get rid of the monster in your body.”

Jeffry spoke softly but Jendra could still hear the voice.

“Mate.”

***

Jeffry looked deeply at the moon which only shone halfway in the dark night. Jeffry is only worried that his body will react immediately and endanger the life of someone who is now with him.

moments later, his thoughts were distracted, Jeffry resumed making bonfires from tree branches scattered around the riverbank. And Zara just sat there watching Jeffry, until he drifted off to his guardian’s serious face.

“May I ask you something?” Jeffry glanced briefly then returned to his activities and opened his voice.

“Yes.”

“We may still have a long way to go, but it is possible that you will meet your mate soon. If that happens, will you leave me immediately?”

Zara tries her best not to let Jeffry know her feelings. A feeling that Zara herself was afraid to admit.

“When I meet my mate and I still owe you an oath, I will continue to protect you Zara, until you return to your world.” Zara nodded, her chest suddenly felt tight as if she couldn’t accept that Jeffry loved his mate so much.

“Is a mate that important to your life? I mean to all of you?

“A mate, they are destined to belong to each other. Their souls are bound, no power in this world can separate them. Unless one of them rejects them.”

Zara was intrigued by Jeffry .

“Reject? Is that possible?”

“There must be a way to make Jeffry reject his mate, I won’t be willing if Jeffry leaves me.” Zara suddenly shook her head as the thought crossed her mind.

“It could be if I have to cut ties with my mate.”Jeffry’s words Jeffry made Zara’s mind go back to thinking about things she shouldn’t be thinking about.

“I’ve been waiting for my mate for a long time. But because of my duty in the kingdom, I’ve become less concerned about it.”

“You should prioritize your mates! What did your kingdom give you to make you so loyal to them?!!”

“Love. There is now a Queen whom I consider a mother. A God whom I consider a father. And a prince whom I consider a brother. I was born there and grew up there, Zara.”

“They see me not just as a Guardian, but as family. They take care of me, taking the place of my father and mother.

A child who doesn’t know anything about the game of this disgusting world,” said Jeffry , still busy arranging the branches in the fireplace.

Zara was silent, digesting what Jeffry said. Na Jeffry, a vampire who is cruel and doesn’t want to think about the suffering of others, actually understands the meaning of love.

“Yes, we are with Zara, our parents left us when we were little.” Jeffry stood up and sat right next to Zara, his hazel irises reflecting the flames he was staring at.

Zara’s heart hurts to hear that, it turns out that this is a fragile Na Jeffry. Zara concluded, behind Jeffry ‘s harsh nature, there must be a big cause that happened.

“Jerry, you are not alone in this world.”

Zara’s arms wrapped around Jeffry tightly from the side. Her eyes sparkled with her sweet little smile, hoping Jeffry no longer remembered his sadness.

Jeffry was quite surprised by Zara’s treatment, Zara’s hug on his body really made him very comfortable.

“Indeed we are the ones who deserve this sadness, the proof is that until now we are still in this world. We are still surviving, we can get through it.”

Jeffry was swept away by the fire that was getting bigger, the image with his parents painted in it made Jeffry unconsciously smile faintly.

“We’re still quite lucky, aren’t we? We have people around us who truly love us both. Like my brother, so do you and your clan’s royal family.”

Jeffry rubbed the top of Zara’s head, making room for Zara to hug her tighter.

“If the owner of the immortal blood wasn’t you, maybe I would have eaten it myself without the hassle of bringing it to the kingdom.” Jeffery chuckled.

“If it wasn’t a vampire like Jeffry who kidnapped me, I would probably have ended my life from the start instead of giving up my blood.”

They both laughed together. Then Zara pulled herself, making Jeffry quickly hold Zara’s arm.

“Your hugs make me very comfortable Zara, can you take a little longer?”

“Yes..” Zara smiled happily then threw her body in Jeffry. “Your body is not as cold as I thought, it’s just that your body is very hard, Jeffry.”

Jeffry then tightened his embrace, looking for warmth from the figure in his arms.

mind Jeffry wandered when for the first time, he was so attracted to someone’s face. Where Zara treats the wound on Jeffry, and unconsciously he says that Zara is beautiful.

“Live centuries in this world, you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.”

Zara’s heart feels like jumping in there, her body feels so hot even though the air around there is very cold even though the fireplace is getting bigger. Zara hastily released her arms and kept her distance from Jeffry.

“Jerry, you’re not good enough at lying.”

“I’m serious.”

“Jerry, just your sweet smile, not your words. I might be desperate to kill your mate if it continues like this.” Zara monologues in her mind until the odd thing strikes her mind.

“Wait, live centuries?! How old are you, Jeffry?!” Zara screams loudly.

“Almost 180 years.” Zara is shocked to hear that, how can Jeffry that old with such a handsome face.

“How come?! Even though we both look the same age.”

“Don’t equate this world with the human world, we even have different dimensions of place and time.” Zara nodded in understanding, even though her mind was still thinking about a lot of complicated theories.

Jeffry glanced briefly at Zara’s face which was still confused.

“For the first time in my life I got to meet a being as good as you, Zara. You changed me, gave me a feeling I’ve never felt before. Every time I’m with you I feel happy, I feel calm. I don’t even have to think twice about risking my life for you. .”

Zara’s smile widened, her hand stretched out and then lightly padded Jeffry, the hazel and chocolate irises collided for a moment and smiled at each other again.

“Only this time, I’ve met the kind of human you are. Talkative, stubborn, weird, and quite troublesome.”

Jeffry managed to change Zara’s expression to become unfriendly.

“What do you mean good creature?!”

Zara snorted in annoyance, she chose to pick up the pebbles around her and threw them into the river creating a sound that broke the silence of the night.

“So, our relationship…” Zara thought for a moment.

“We are friends, if all of this is over don’t ever forget me Na Jeffry.”

Of course Zara accepts that Jeffry can’t be with her forever. Zara let it go, although it was only now that she realized that there was a hidden feeling in her heart.

Zara’s hand is outstretched, asking for a handshake as a token of their friendship. Then Jeffry’s hand immediately accepted the offer.

“Of course, how could I forget when I risked my life for a human.”

Lord Blanchard’s younger brother smiled wryly. Zara feels lucky to meet a vampire who has many mysteries in her life. Really, Zara wants to spend more time with Jeffry.

“I may have one request. To be honest, since the first time we met I wanted to say it, but at that time, I was still too scared to see you angry.”

Jeffry glanced at him briefly, then a moment later nodded.

“May I call you Nana?”

“What’s that name Zara! That name doesn’t suit me!!” Jeffry looks disapproving of Zara’s request. The name definitely sounded strange to him.

“No Jeffry! That’s good, very good in fact. I like that nickname. Just imagine. Na Jeffry, a great, cruel, arrogant and hot-tempered vampire has such a funny nickname.”

“No!”

Zara stubbornly keeps asking for her wish to be granted.

“I’ll still call you by that name!!”

Jeffry didn’t mean to say anything, whatever Zara wanted, the girl would be stubborn to defend it.

“You’re angry Na, erm I mean Jeffry.”

Seeing Zara’s regretful face, almost made Jeffry want to laugh. Then Jeffry went to set the wood in the fireplace and Zara was still faithful with a look of regret.

“I’m sorry, I won’t call you…”

“I like it.”

Zara’s brain couldn’t digest the word like Jeffry.

“Now that I think about it, the name isn’t too bad.” Zara was quite surprised by Jeffry’s.

“I’m so happy! That name is really good Jeffry, ah I mean Nana.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Zara smirked, making her eyes look closed.

“But, compared to Nana, it’s more appropriate for me to call you Nana’s grandfather.” Zara laughed after saying that, considering Jeffry ‘s almost two centuries old.

“If you like it I don’t mind the call.” Zara’s eyes widened, “How can Jeffry turn into this cute.”

“You’re so cute Nat.” Suddenly Zara slightly shifted her body closer to Jeffry and pinched the vampire’s cheeks with excitement. And Jeffry actually put on a cold face like he wanted to kill Zara right then and there.

Realizing what he had done, Zara quickly withdrew her hands and smiled awkwardly. “Um, sorry.” Zara cleared her throat, trying to lighten the mood.

“Na, you still remember the Assassins?”

“Of course.”

“Do you still remember when Namjoon said that I would be possessed by a vampire. And at that time I answered confidently that I hoped it was you, Na Jeffry.”

Jeffry then sat up and straightened himself, Zara’s confession made him suddenly feel uneasy.

“I’m not joking with what I said then Na, I’m serious.” Jeffry still chose to remain silent.

“You want a creature like me? I’m a monster Zara, Angel is not Devil.”

Zara suddenly shook her head.

“Why not? As long as I exist in this world we are always together. I already know you very well, even though I am starting to understand you. There is no reason to refuse that fate.”

“But fate will not choose me, Zara. We are not a couple. I can never be with you.”

Zara then smiled, a smile that represented the pain in her heart right now.

“Don’t get your hopes up on things you’re not sure about Zara, it will only hurt you. I don’t like seeing you sad, you know that.”

Zara looks up at the sky with thousands of stars. His eyes blinked to hold back the tears that wanted to escape from his eyelids.

“Same Na, I also don’t like seeing you hurt. We are partners on a mission. Find out the reason why I was connected to the immortal world. We should have separated when this mission ended. I also don’t want to stay long in this world…, ”

“I want to go home.” Zara continued, her gaze shifted to Jeffry who reached out his hand right in front of his face.

Zara accepted the offer and followed Jeffry to lie down. The hazel and chocolate irises collided again. Until Jeffry looked up again, without Zara even saying a word, Jeffry could hear everything.

“I don’t care about pride anymore, in fact in this world all that doesn’t apply. Also myself, I fell. Falling into the charm of a vampire guardian. Even though I know that you are doing this only out of pity. But, now I can’t deny it Na.”

I like you Na Jeffry

I fell in love with you

Jeffry stared blankly at the stars above, his heart was crushed hearing the words that Zara repeated in her heart.

The pair of eyes that used to stare intently like an eagle now looked wistful, Jeffry chose to close his eyes. His right hand faithfully gripped Zara’s hand tighter.
