twilight passion

"Of course... the omnipotent God came to this humble and kind human being to beg for that vampire. However, I dare say that human being will not agree. What do you say, my...Edward ?”

After saying these words, Samuel raised his eyes to look at the vampire lover on his face, the smile on his face... contained a kind of temptation that could easily capture the vampire demon in front of him that was related to darkness.Seeing Samuel say such words with such an expression, Edward smiled tacitly, and said with a little mockery: "Then, perhaps that evil vampire should be more devout in this sacred place, Although he doesn't believe in these things. But he doesn't want his lover to stand in front of him and face the great, omnipotent God for him."

After finishing this sentence with a normal volume, Edward showed a charming smile, and then lowered his voice in Samuel's ear and said, "I really want to kiss you here, in front of the damn Virgin Mary , Samuel."

"You'd better stop thinking like this, I'll beat you up."

"With your tongue, Samuel?"

"Remember what you just said, keep a piety here, Mr. Cullen!"

Edward's arrogance in the church made Samuel's teeth itch, and he wanted to hit Edward's abdomen with his palm.How could he have been grabbed by the speed vampire before he met Edward, and said seriously, "This will hurt you."

Such a sentence reminded Samuel of a not-so-good memory.Gritting his teeth, he shook off Edward, walked alone along the carpet laid in the corridor of the hall to the end of the corridor, and then turned right to the confessional of the church.As for Edward, as he had agreed with Samuel earlier, he found a place near the end of the corridor and sat down in the hall, quietly waiting for his lover to return.

Yes, Samuel was worried that taking a vampire to visit the priest in the church unawares might offend him.Even if it doesn't offend the other party, it is never a very polite thing to make the other party happy.

No matter what, it was time to let the other party know in advance, so that Father Julian could decide whether to see this golden-eyed...vegetarian among vampires.

So Samuel walked to the confession room of the church alone, while Edward sat in the hall, opened a Bible very piously, followed Samuel's footsteps with his mind reading ability, and listened carefully The voices of the people around him, through these voices, painted pictures of Samuel in his mind...

Samuel walked into the corridor of the confession room, sat on the seat and waited for the priest who was doing confession for others.After waiting patiently for half an hour, Samuel finally entered the confessional.He thought that his arrival would bring a lot of surprise to the gentle priest, but unexpectedly... what greeted him was the priest's gentle laughter.

"Long time no see, Samuel, you look...much better than when we last met."

"Long time no see, Father Julian."

Priest Julian seemed to have known about Samuel's arrival, even in the confessional where they couldn't see each other...before he opened his mouth, he already knew that the person sitting in the confessional...was himself up.This surprised Samuel.However, thinking of when he met Father Julian two years ago...the other party could see his chaotic state at a glance, Samuel didn't care too much about letting go.

"Thank you very much for helping me back then. But I think I may still have a little trouble now. Those guys living in my body... you know some of them are very powerful, at this stage In the state...I can't seal their consciousness back when they definitely want to come out to breathe, and prevent them from seeing something...that they shouldn't see."

"Oh?"

"For example... I don't want some guy with a strong presence looking at me when I'm taking a shower."

When Father Julian made a suspicious voice on the other side of the carved wooden window through which some light beams passed, Samuel, who seemed to have thought of something, improvised a lie, which made Father Julian laugh.

"You can't lie in the confessional, Samuel. I don't think it should make much difference to those beings whether you wear clothes or not. All they can tell is your soul."

Father Julian's kind reminder made Samuel have to curse in his heart: Damn it, I probably didn't tell him this.However, after thinking about it, Samuel, who could almost see Father Julian smiling and waiting through the wooden window with small gaps, was powerless. He sighed and said the truth helplessly: "Okay, I confess. I don't want to... have a bunch of guys watching me while I'm having sex with my partner."

How could he know that Father Julian's words... which showed some doubts made Samuel choke completely.Father Julian said, "I'm sorry, it's just Samuel... Are you an adult?"

"Father Julian, you should know that in the United States, you can drive at the age of 16, and you can run for election at the age of 18."

"But I seem to remember that you can't get out of custody until you're 21?"

"So you think everybody doesn't have sex until they're 21, Mr. Abstinence Priest?"

Hearing Father Julian's words, Samuel folded his fingers and smiled weakly, making the other party smile indifferently.

"Well, maybe I shouldn't be probing your privacy like this, Samuel. I think I already know about your troubles. Maybe you should be grateful that we are really destined. Because in another week, I will Get out of here. Until then, I should be able to prepare a new cross for you."

"Thank you, it's just... you're leaving?"

"Yes, to escape from some dangerous demons. So maybe it's time for confession, Samuel? Maybe you should save time for others. I'll be waiting for you in the clergy's lounge in five days. Turn left at the end."

He just vaguely mentioned the reason for his leaving, and Father Julian didn't plan to say anything more to Samuel to drive them away.That puzzled Samuel.Although he and Father Julian had only met a few times since they met, the great help given to him by the other party made Samuel unable to ignore the dangers he might encounter.

With this confusion, Samuel returned to the hall of the church and saw Edward who had been waiting for a long time.Samuel, whose heart was blocked by that confusion, took a deep breath and asked his lover without reservation: "In the eyes of the priests... a dangerous demon, what could it be?"

"There are other vampires following him."

Samuel just asked this doubt, and Edward, who had heard more through the ability of mind reading, lowered his voice and said the answer to the question in Samuel's ear.That made Samuel stare at his vampire lover with wide eyes.Knowing that this area may be dangerous, Edward held Samuel's hand, and walked out with him pretending to be inadvertent.

"He seems to want to hide this secret deep in his mind, but I still read it. He inadvertently knew some... secrets of vampires that should not be known by humans. And, he had a premonition Only very powerful vampires will track him down."

Edward's words made Samuel stop in his tracks, and then continued to walk out as if nothing had happened.When they walked outside the church, a heavy rain had stopped, bringing fresh air after the rain.Among the bustling crowd, Samuel suddenly grabbed Edward's hand firmly, lowered his head and asked, "Then... can we help him?"

"Vampires are obsessive. So...unless he voluntarily turns into a vampire, or...he convinces the vampire who is chasing him to stop. Once this flight starts, it won't stop."

"Then you...you..."

"I'll do my best to help him. Maybe Carlisle can help us convince the vampire who's after Father Julian. There will be a way, Samuel. Believe me, huh?"

Feeling the uneasiness coming from Samuel, Edward put his hand on the back of Samuel's head, closed his eyes and touched his forehead with his lips, and his eyelashes, constantly comforting the lover in his arms.

It seems that after Samuel gave him the ring that was haunted by him, wearing it on Edward's left ring finger, the ring closest to the heart, enabled Edward to capture every aspect of Samuel more keenly than before. A slight change of mood.His joy, anger, uneasiness, mania, and overflowing love for him all the time.

Therefore, this vampire, who has always been very careful, became even more perceptive when he met Samuel.It was as if at this moment, he was acutely aware of Samuel's uneasiness, and... hoped that he could help Father Julian.So of course Edward will work hard to do this.Even...it's almost impossible.

After returning to the hotel, Edward made a phone call to Carlisle, who was far away in the small town of Forks, and very cryptically mentioned a word that made Samuel feel unfamiliar, "Volturi"...
