twilight passion

It was a bucket of well water with ice cubes that woke Samuel up.When Samuel opened his eyes again, there was a scream-like pain all over his body.He found himself led into what looked like a medieval cellar for convicts.He seems to be the only one that the other party has met in the nearly 1000 years of his life... the only one who couldn't read all his memories smoothly.

Thus, the vampires he angered seemed to recall torture.But those vampires are really not good at forcing people to give an answer.

"I really don't know anything, let alone... what you want from me."

Samuel didn't know that Victoria was here, so he didn't even know how much he was being held by the other party.In order not to leak any information and plunge himself into a new crisis, Samuel could only stick to this answer.

However, whenever Samuel told them this sentence, the members of the Volturi family seemed to think of nothing but beatings.However, the group of vampires still had to control their strength, being careful not to kill him like this.That awkward look made Samuel want to laugh out loud.

Gradually, he put himself into a state of suspended animation through the control of power in this cellar, or... a state that seemed to be close to death.It should be said that this trick is really useful. When Samuel made himself like that, the annoying interruptions were much less.

Samuel, who has recovered a lot of strength, can feel that Edward is rushing here.And he will be able to leave this damn place soon.

It is precisely because of the belief of hope in his consciousness that he does not feel how dark and dark the cold cellar is.Ah Luo, however, had no such patience.

It was on this afternoon that the sun was shining brightly in the ancient city of Wotra, but Samuel, who was covered in wounds, was locked alone in the cellar that had been abandoned for hundreds of years.His body was already very dull, but his senses became more and more acute in this quiet cellar.He heard the footsteps of more than one person coming from the entrance of the cellar.

The future that Alice sees is about to happen.

Aro, who had almost lost his patience, came to the cellar with two guards from the Volturi family, bringing an oncoming gloomy and dark air.Perhaps that can make many people who are very sensitive to spiritual power feel oppressed, and even have a feeling of being dizzy.

However, Samuel originally possessed pure magic attributes, so he didn't reject such dark forces.There is a dull pain in the body, because of the dense itching caused by the scarring of the wound.When he felt those people approaching, he tried his best to adjust his breathing to be weaker, weaker, and even deliberately dimmed his eyes.

Sure enough, that cloyingly sweet voice that did not please Samuel at all sounded again.Even if he didn't raise his eyes, Samuel could feel that Ah Luo looked at him as if he was looking at someone who was about to die, with a kind of hypocritical pity that made him sick.

"Samuel, is that your name? You are dying. To this day, are you unwilling to tell me the secrets in your body?"

Regarding Ah Luo's question, Samuel, who was already "weak" to the point of being speechless, naturally couldn't answer him.However, Ah Luo also seemed to understand this, and continued talking on his own.

"It is undeniable that you are very smart. If it is not because I realize how interesting your special ability is, maybe I have been deceived by you and returned you to dear Edward. Do you want to know , why am I so sure?"

As he spoke, Ah Luo's smile faded, and he called the name of the guard behind him a little absent-mindedly.

"Victoria."

The guard whose name he had called pulled down the hood of his black cloak.She has fiery hair, a delicate and beautiful face, and...hateful eyes.

The moment Victoria's name was called, Samuel seemed to understand the problem.But now...it seems to be too late to say anything.He can clearly remember how he threatened these three vampires, and also remember what kind of ability he used in front of them.However, he still didn't understand why Caius, who almost killed him when he was in Germany, and why Caius, one of the three elders of the Volturi family, didn't show up from the beginning to the end.

Was he manipulating the incident behind the scenes?

No, Samuel remembered that Edward had said to himself that Aro had a higher status in the Volturi family than the other two elders because of his perfect mind reading ability.

So... Do I want to be honest now?

No no no, of course not.If you tell Ah Luo the power he has, he will definitely covet this power, want to turn himself into a vampire, and then order himself to be loyal to him.

But Samuel understands better than anyone else... The power he possesses exists in the soul, in the neutral container of human beings.Once transformed into a vampire, his powers cease to exist.He can only become the most ordinary of many vampires.

So, tell Ah Luo that if he transforms into a vampire, this power will disappear?

No, this is also a not very smart idea.Because Samuel couldn't explain the reason for this to the vampire in front of him, let alone let him know...the best way to let out his own special power.

Just as Samuel was continuing this hesitation, he felt those beautiful eyes full of hatred approaching him.It seems that when Samuel was distracted, Victoria, who had lost her partner and fell into endless hatred, had already approached Samuel, stretched out her hand, grabbed Samuel's neck, and lifted him easily stand up.

Samuel felt that the oxygen was gradually moving away from him along with life, and all the voices seemed to be separated by a water wall, making it difficult to hear clearly.In the twilight of consciousness, he seemed to see Edward, and even heard his roar because of extreme sadness...

"Edward..."

When his throat was dry and his lips seemed to stick together, Samuel whispered his lover's name uncontrollably, as if he could transmit his weak voice to the other person's mind.As his consciousness gradually blurred, he seemed to be able to see that the plane Edward was on was drawn into some mysterious magnetic field and crashed into the sea.

If the passengers on the plane were only ordinary humans, they would have absolutely no chance of surviving.And yet...they were vampires and werewolves.They are dozens of times beyond the physical limit of ordinary humans, and they are constantly approaching here with their difficult walks in the sea.Samuel could almost feel Edward's golden eyes that fascinated him right in front of him.So he repeated the murmur.

To his surprise... Edward, who was approaching here deeper in the sea under the double washing of heavy rain and waves, seemed to hear his own voice.He opened his eyes wide in surprise, his face full of disbelief...

However, at this moment, a familiar cold voice awakened Samuel's consciousness like cold water pouring from the top of his head.

What appeared in front of his eyes at this moment was not Aro with a fake smile, nor Victoria who looked like a red-haired witch, but Caius whom Samuel had never seen since he was brought to Italy.

Caius hadn't changed at all from the last time they met, not even his expression had changed in the slightest.He was elegant and charming, but this time...he didn't seem to have any intention of hurting Samuel.

"You kept calling the name of the Karen family kid just now. It's just a pity that he didn't come to rescue you this time. It's obviously not a wise choice to fight against the Volturi family for a human lover who will die at any time. Maybe he's figured it out this time."

Those were not words to show off, let alone words that made Samuel give up.It seems that Caius is just stating to Samuel a fact in his eyes.

When the connection between the soul and the body became looser and looser, that was the opportunity for Samuel's strength to become stronger.Therefore, now Samuel can easily judge his intentions by relying on the subtle changes in the opponent's breath, just like now.

"So this time, you saved me?"

It has been a long time since he spoke, and his throat was hoarse due to high fever and long-term lack of water.When he said that sentence, he even wondered if his vocal cords had been cut by these Italian vampires at some point and then reconnected.If not, how could he only make such a sound?

However, Caius didn't seem to mind the voice that startled Samuel himself, and simply stated a fact that just happened.

"I told Ah Luo, it would be a pity to let you die now."

"So maybe I should say thank you?"

Hearing Caius' plain narration, Samuel said these words as if joking with an old friend.Even he himself was surprised, how amazing, a vampire who almost killed him half a year ago and made him tremble with fear, now he can talk to him so easily.

Maybe... when a person's fear of death reaches a critical point, he will be fearless?

Except for this explanation, Samuel could think of no other explanation.However, Caius today is no longer like the last time he met, attacking Samuel for no reason, and even showing killing intent.Caius stared at Samuel for a long time, and then said something that Samuel couldn't recover from for a long time...
