CHAPTER 1: THE MEETING

Christine's eyes widened when she saw the many people in front of her wearing different clothes and dancing with happy faces.

Christine had heard of this before, when humans would gather in the square and dance like that, indicating they were celebrating a festival.

Christine then tried to follow the movements of the women who were wearing beautiful dresses, before finally walking away, there were still many things about the human world that she wanted to see. She didn't know when else she would get this opportunity, sneaking into the human world, so Christine decided to take a look.

Yes, this is the first time Christine has come here. She snuck out after her family left and left her alone.

Pulling up the hood of the robe she was wearing so people wouldn't see her face, Christine walked down the street lit by street lamps while occasionally glancing at the buildings beside her.

Christine's footsteps stopped when from where she could see a building that was very tall and looked luxurious. Intrigued by the place, Christine decided to go take a close look.

***

Christine finally hid on a balcony of the tall building after trying not to be caught by the humans who seemed to be guarding the tall building. Judging from the clothes they wear, Christine could tell that they were knights, people she had to avoid because they were people who could kill her.

Yes, Christine is a vampire and the war between humans and vampires is ongoing. Even though Christine never came out of the house, she was told to run away the moment she saw the humans clad in white armors with red robes, they were knights assigned to kill vampires.

After making sure none of the knights had noticed her arrival, Christine finally stood up and walked over to the only open window, her eyes immediately sparkling as she saw that it was a spacious area with lots of interesting items that she was seeing for the first time.

There was a large box, a chandelier that looked luxurious, not to mention that in the middle of the room there was a very wide chair, Christine was sure she could use that chair to lie down.

Without having to wait long, Christine immediately entered the place through the window which was unlocked, and started looking around the room. Starting from a large box that turned out to contain clothes that hung neatly, until finally she chose to sit on that very wide chair.

"This chair is so comfortable," Christine exclaimed as her butt settled into it.

Feeling tired and wanting to lie down, Christine took off her boots and climbed onto the wide chair, then lay down there and closed her eyes, until she finally fell asleep.

***

William came out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe and got ready to put on his nightgown and then went to bed, ending his tiring day. However, William's eyes immediately opened wide when he saw someone wearing a black hooded robe, hiding that person's face.

"Who is this person? Did he try to kill me and then fall asleep because I took too long in the shower?" thought William who found this situation completely ridiculous.

He then slowly walked over to the cupboard, where he kept his sword, his eyes focused on the body that was still sleeping on his comfortable bed.

When William managed to take his sword and was about to point at the person, suddenly the person's hand moved, removing the hood covering their face.

"Ah, it seems I fell asleep," said the person slowly.

William blinked when he heard the voice of people sleeping on his bed. Isn't that a woman's voice?

"Who are you? What are you doing in my room? Did you come here to kill me?" asked William, raising his sword.

However, before his sword was pointed at the woman's neck, with a quick movement the woman got off her bed and away from William.

Christine looked at the man still in his bathrobe, her eyes twinkling as she saw his wet silver hair and blue eyes staring at her.

This was the first time he had seen such a handsome human!

Not to mention, the man's chest looks muscular and his stomach is not big, as she often sees.

Christine hastily shook her head, this was not the time to be mesmerized by the handsome human in front of her!

She must think of something!

Meanwhile, William was also silent when the hood that had previously hidden the woman's face finally fell and revealed her face.

He could feel his chest thump as he saw the beauty of the woman with black hair. Like the night sky.

"I ask you one more time! What were you doing in my room?! If you explain, I might let you leave here!" said William, trying to focus..

He admitted he was a little fascinated by the beauty of that woman. The moonlight that illuminated her from behind made her look even more beautiful and radiant.

However, he had to focus and not let himself be lulled by her beauty.

It could be that she was an assassin who was after his life!

"Damn! Think something, Christine! I'm sure I can kill him in one hit and then run away from here, but… he's too handsome," thought Christine, who was in a dilemma about what to do right now.

Seeing Christine's face that looked like she was scared and didn't show any signs of being dangerous, William finally put down his sword.

After all, with that face, there's no way this woman is an assassin, right?

"I'm not going to hurt you, so let's talk. What's your name?" William asked gently and slowly placed his sword on the floor so that the woman wouldn't be frightened anymore.

However, contrary to William's thought that Christine was going to speak, the woman immediately turned around and climbed out of the open window. William tried to chase after her, but the woman had already come down from the balcony of his room and ran out of the palace.

William was a little surprised when he saw that, how could the woman come down from the balcony of his room which was on the third floor? Did she use the help of a tree beside his room?

No, this is not the time to think about that, he has to chase that woman and find out about her.

***

William returned to his room with a disheveled face, he tried to catch up with her, but she ran very fast and soon disappeared from his sight.

"Eh, what is it?" muttered William who saw a pair of boots after he closed his bedroom window.

This was the first time he had seen the shoes, and they were clearly not the shoes for him as they were too small for him to wear.

"Wait a minute. Could these be that woman's shoes?" muttered William then took a pair of shoes.

"I don't know who you are, but I think I can find you with these shoes."

William suddenly smiled as a thought crossed his mind, he couldn't wait to see her again.
