[Comprehensive Anglo-American] Vampire Love Story
Chapter 32 "Stay with me"
Vanessa lowered her eyes, and Sherlock smashed all the beautiful fantasies she had been using to deceive herself.
In addition to those hazy feelings for Caius, she must face these realities.
And these mountain-like insurmountable gaps split the distance between her and Caius into two distinct parts—all the beautiful girls' minds are so vulnerable to these bloody facts.
"I know there is a big gap between me and him, but Sherlock, my heart is still moving." Vanessa herself felt that the words at the moment were naive and ridiculous, and she said weakly, "Humans can never be absolutely calm , besides, he was really nice to me—”
"Very good?" Sherlock seemed to think about this topic for a while, and then he showed a mocking smile.
Sherlock looked at the girl in front of him - she was young, naive, innocent, with impulsive bravery and ignorant delusions.
"So for these 'goods', do you know what you're going to pay?"
"Sunshine, food, relatives, friends...you can treat all of these as things outside of you, Vanessa," Sherlock's indifferent gray-blue eyes fixed on the girl in front of him, and he calmly pointed out the most critical question ——
"But that vampire's final goal is to kill you."
"Admit it, Vanessa, you're not ready for this."
"You haven't thought about the price you have to pay for your willful and superficial liking."
Sherlock casually threw the "Lolita" in his hand on the bookshelf, he stood up, put his hands on the desk condescendingly, looked at Vanessa thoughtfully, "Now, let's make a Suppose—"
"For example, between your well-cared-for, flawless face and that noble Lord Caius, which one would you choose?"
"...Okay, Sherlock." Vanessa's eyes flickered, and then she gave him a smirk, "Let's discuss what I will wear at Ms. Catherine's engagement banquet next week."
Whether this week is long or not, is it short or not.
On the night of the dinner, when the well-dressed Vanessa went downstairs in a skirt, Watson stood in the living room talking to Sherlock.Hearing her going downstairs, the two stopped talking at the same time and turned to look at her.
—It is astonishingly beautiful.
Watson, who was already at a loss for words, could only admire so much.
Well-groomed Vanessa is amazingly beautiful.
The black one-shoulder short dress complemented her skin like creamy skin, and the high waistline design made her legs look slender. After Vanessa deliberately put on makeup to enhance her complexion, her already delicate facial features appeared even more. Amazing beauty.
The black feather hair accessories on the head and the looming elf ears hidden in the slightly curly black hair add a bit of mystery to Vanessa.
——Like a proud black swan.
"Wow, Miss Vanessa," Watson exclaimed, "you will amaze everyone today."
"Thank you for your praise, Dr. Watson, and I wish you a happy date tonight." Vanessa smiled playfully, then looked at Sherlock who was beside her and raised her eyebrows, "So, is my knight ready tonight?" ?”
"At your service, ma'am."
When the two arrived at the Rael's mansion, the banquet was already approaching.
Seeing everyone quickly like flowing water, Vanessa's father Rachel did not embarrass her in public because of the Sherlock Holmes family's face.
Or maybe he was waiting for himself to give in and apologize first?
Vanessa rolled her eyes secretly, and after perfunctory finishing her superficial work, she immediately pulled Sherlock away beside her.
"Seriously, Sherlock," Vanessa, who was standing in the corner, used the wine glass in her hand to cover her, and whispered to Sherlock, "If I throw the wine bottle directly in Catherine's face, will you help me? "
Sherlock had a perfect smirk on his face, but the words in his mouth were merciless: "I advise you to calm down, Miss Vanessa, there is a high probability that it will ruin your appearance today."
"Okay, I give up." Vanessa's eyes slipped around the crowd again, "Seriously, Sherlock, is there anything you like about these men in the audience? Not Moriarty, but I think there are some really nice faces."
"Vanessa!" Sherlock felt that this goldfish could easily run out of patience, "What's on your mind—"
"My mind is all about you, my stalwart, handsome, smart, witty and cute roommate." Vanessa said with a smile, finding opportunities to choke Sherlock in a conversation is simply one of the great joys of her life.
Immediately, Vanessa's joking words stopped, and she lowered her voice, "Sherlock, there is something wrong with the person in front of the red dahlia sculpture on the left."
——The flame on his head was red and black, which was exactly the same as what Vanessa saw on Moriarty's head.
Vanessa, who made a joke, didn't know that her joking words were heard by someone half hidden behind the curtain.
Caius paused when he was going to step out, and he squinted his eyes, looking at the woman standing illuminated by the gorgeous crystal ceiling.
At this kind of banquet, Vanessa has always behaved gracefully and with ease.
Even when her cousin Catherine and her ex-fiancé almost staged a farce at the 16th birthday party, she was able to maintain a calm and self-possessed face.
Therefore, even though Vanessa is neither the protagonist nor the most obvious position in the crowd today, she can still easily capture everyone's attention.
As for the success of her performance at the banquet, Vanessa's criterion for judging is Catherine—for example, today, she has felt the jealous gaze of that cousin several times.
Vanessa felt very satisfied.
Since childhood, Catherine loved to be compared with her.Whatever Vanessa had, she always had it.
From the gorgeous jeweled dresses, to what Vanessa started out as the perfect family.
If you can, you can cry and try to get it, if you can't, you can steal it—or even destroy it.
For example, tonight, Catherine obviously hated herself so much, but she chose to invite her to the engagement banquet, as if she needed Vanessa to witness her success in person.
"Vanessa!" Just as she was thinking, Catherine's surprised voice came to her ears, "I didn't expect you would really want to come!"
"This is a lifelong event for my dear cousin, how could I not be present to congratulate her?" Vanessa deliberately bit down on the word "cousin", and then she managed to see Catherine's expression distorted for a moment.
While it was funny in her heart, Vanessa felt a little bored at the same time, she actually wasted time on a group of disgusting people.
"It's my honor to see you again, Vanessa." Rael, who was held by Catherine's arm, was obviously also amazed by Vanessa's look tonight, and his coveted eyes lingered around Vanessa.
I haven't seen her for a year, and she has become more and more beautiful and eye-catching.
Rael even regretted that the person holding his arm tonight was not Vanessa.Otherwise it must have been one of the greatest bragging rights among his friends--returning the heart of "Pride Rose" sounds like something to brag about!
In fact, today's engagement banquet was quite embarrassing. Almost everyone present knew the messy relationship between today's hero, heroine and her cousin.
Seeing the three of them standing together now, there were many gossipers who planned to watch a good show, and the scene was a little quiet for a while.
"Are you here alone today?" Catherine squeezed her fiancé's arm, pretending to be generous, "If you feel lonely, I can lend you a dance with Rael later - but it will have to wait for him After picking the opening dance with me."
It was embarrassing and nonsensical to say this.
Vanessa frowned.
Since she discovered a suspicious person just now, Sherlock has already quietly gone to investigate.Therefore, now she can be said to be alone and helpless——
"She didn't come alone." The soft and pleasant voice attracted the attention of everyone present, and for a moment, the venue was silent.
Then Vanessa heard a lot of gasps, and she turned to look—
It was Caius.
He actually appeared at the banquet at Leier's house? !
Vanessa just felt that time and space were a little messed up.
Today's Caius took off the Volturi's usual conservative robes, and he put on a somewhat retro tuxedo.Although it is not the latest trendy style, but I have to admit that this kind of old-fashioned aristocratic style is really suitable for Caius.
Under the warm light, Caius, who was already extremely handsome, was rendered more dazzling and mysterious.
At this moment, I don't know how many wives and ladies present were heartbroken by his elegance, but his eyes only stayed on one person.
He presumably covered his red pupils with contact lenses.Vanessa stared at Caius and was a little distracted, thinking that the eyes that Caius cast on her were so deep and moving, which made her almost think that she was the heroine of the kind of vulgar bloody stories on the floor.
Caius casually put down the wine glass that he hadn't drunk at all, and he made an ordinary movement that was full of coquettishness.
Step by step.
Caius walked towards Vanessa holding a rose that came from nowhere.
As if stepping on Vanessa's heart.
"Tonight, I'm her male companion."
Vanessa heard Caius say this.
She is sure that she must be the envy and envy of all the ladies present, and even some men.
But she didn't care - Vanessa didn't have time to think about it at the moment.
The opening song was played, and Catherine and Rael had already slipped onto the dance floor to lead the dance, but it was clear that everyone's attention was not on them.
"Relax, little rose." Caius took Vanessa's hand, and he carefully inserted the rose into Vanessa's ear.Such a close distance obviously made him feel Vanessa's nervousness.
"Seeing me here, don't you have anything to say?"
"Uh..." Vanessa, who was led to dance by Caius, felt that she had never been so flustered even when the lead dancer at her 16th birthday party encountered an emergency, "What brand are your contact lenses? "
Caius's expression froze, but he immediately reacted - apparently the time spent together had made him used to Vanessa's strange brain circuit: "What else?"
"Also... Also, you are so beautiful today."
When Vanessa blurted out, she wanted to bite her tongue off when she realized it.
"Heh... This should be my line, dear Miss Rose." Vanessa who lowered her head didn't dare to look at Caius's expression now, so she missed Caius's gentle smile at this moment.
Later, Vanessa heard Caius ask in a low voice, "Do you think this banquet is very boring?"
"It's a bit...well, I admit, it's extremely boring here."
"Then, do you plan to stay here and enjoy the Fool's Ceremony, or—"
Before Caius could finish speaking, the lights in the arena suddenly slammed, and darkness descended in an instant.
For a moment, Catherine's screams, Leyle's inquiries, various elders' reprimands, and what seemed to be the crying of a certain noble lady rang out in my ears at the same time.
——This chaotic scene is so absurd that it seems to be replicating the scene of the shipwreck in the movie "Titanic".
The moment she heard these voices, Vanessa subconsciously stood on tiptoe and raised her hand to cover Caius' ears—she remembered that vampires had excellent hearing. Wouldn't such a chaotic and noisy scene give Caius a headache?
When foreseeing the chaos, Caius reflexively protected the girl in his arms.
The vampire's excellent eyesight allowed him to clearly see the girl's movements in the dark, and felt the warm touch on the ear, Caius' Adam's apple moved, and then he chuckled.
At this moment, all the noisy noise seemed to be cut off by an invisible wall, and any noise and commotion in the venue had nothing to do with Vanessa.
She could only feel Caius' icy breath on her skin and her own burning heartbeat.
"Stay here..."
He rested his chin on Vanessa's shoulder, whispering the unfinished words in her ear.
"...or, stay..."
Such a deceptive voice seems like Satan is trying to lure an innocent lost lamb into hell——
"With me."
