[Comprehensive Anglo-American] Vampire Love Story

Chapter 38 The Gun Is Always in Your Hand

Anyway, with Mr. Stark around, Caius would not dare to act rashly against Peter.

With this in mind, Vanessa left with peace of mind.

[Good afternoon, Miss Vanessa, which floor are you going to? 】

"Good afternoon, Friday." Vanessa felt her hands tremble a little, "Just send me to the first floor... Is Mr. Stark talking to someone?"

【Yes.6 minutes before your arrival, Mr. Stark was receiving visitors.For other content, I need more permissions to disclose. 】

【If you need, I can apply to Mr. now. 】

Vanessa hurriedly stopped her: "No, no, no need! I know this is enough!"

"Thank you Friday and have a nice afternoon."

With the opening of the elevator door, Vanessa seems to have fled away.

[You're welcome, Miss Vanessa.Good afternoon to you too. 】

The moment she walked out of Stark Tower, Vanessa was a little dazed.

Wandering the streets is clearly not a safe option these days, and after thinking about it, there seems to be only one place for her to go - the Xavier Academy for Gifted Youngsters.

Vanessa walked to the side of the street and tried to hail a car.She didn't notice that a figure had quietly appeared behind her.

Then, before she had time to react, she was taken away by the other party—they stood behind a small newsstand at the corner of the street.

Almost reflexively, Vanessa reached into her handbag and clutched the "little gift" McCoff had given her before leaving.

A delicate and compact ladies pistol|gun.

Caius saw Vanessa's movements, and his eyes fell on the gun, with complex emotions that she couldn't understand.Noticing her bewildered expression, he lowered his eyelids to cover up the emotion in his eyes and silently twitched the corners of his mouth.

He lowered his head and approached Vanessa, causing their aura to become entangled again.

"You're avoiding me." His breathing was messy, and her smell could always easily make him lose control.

Caius stared at Vanessa, his light red pupils full of emotions made Vanessa take a step back unconsciously.

Seeing her resistance, Caius straightened his already stiff smile into a straight line, but Vanessa didn't notice it.

"Yes, I'm avoiding you." Vanessa exhausted all her courage in just one sentence, "Because I don't know..."

"You don't have to worry, whether it's the UK or the US, I'm not just here for you." At this time, Caius had put down his hand around Vanessa's waist, "Because I noticed some instability Factors, so the governments of all countries are strengthening their cooperation with us.”

He seemed to be able to easily see all the worries in Vanessa's heart, and before she asked any questions, he explained everything to her lightly.In the end, it was natural to put away all the emotions that made her feel uncomfortable—even if she didn't feel it at all, Caius smiled self-deprecatingly.

However, Vanessa pursed her lips and finally breathed a sigh of relief.As long as I'm not that important in his heart...

The girl on the opposite side obviously relaxed after hearing this sentence, which caused Caius to restrain his negative emotions like a volcanic eruption.

At this moment, his heart, which was obviously not beating, seemed to be burned into ashes, and this flame burning his heart was close at hand.

He tried his best to come here, but every time he could only see her with someone else.

They look so well matched.

Whether it was that little Mr. Holmes, or now this young boy.

They can stand together in the sun and enjoy the joy, and see all the beauty of the world; they are both young, and they can join hands in drunkenness, dreaming and drinking.

No matter who it is, the people around her are never him.

——a corpse that had already rotted and crumbled inside.

He is doomed to remain in the dark forever.

Maybe it's revenge for her indifference, maybe it's trying to bring her attention back to herself from other people.He twitched the corner of his mouth viciously: "Of course, at the same time, I need your blood very much."

"But if you don't want to," Caius tilted his head, his long platinum-blond hair hanging on the side of his face, which would give his expression a bit of innocence.

"Why don't you ask your friend to do it for you? I think the human boy I met just now is very good—" This is definitely what he said from the bottom of his heart. God knows how much he wanted to twist the other party's cord at that time. Little, A fragile vulnerable neck.

"Caius!" Vanessa growled almost urgently, probably sensing his inadvertent murderous intent.

His violent behavior last time obviously left a serious psychological shadow on Vanessa.

For her agitation, Caius didn't even know whether to be happy that she finally felt her emotions, or angry that she felt his emotions for someone else.But the pleasure of revenge made him calm down as much as possible, and he even smiled from the bottom of his heart: "If I really did that, what would you do, my little Rose?"

He never seemed to put human life in his eyes.

Vanessa was irritated by Caius' relaxed and playful tone.

At this moment, she has forgotten her faint worries and worries before.The second after Caius' voice fell, Vanessa instantly pulled out the pistol from her bag.

She pointed the gun at Caius.

"Pistol? No, you know it can't hurt us?"

Caius didn't seem to be worried about Vanessa's actions at all, he still looked calm and indifferent, only the faintly aggravated scarlet eyes confirmed his turbulent emotions at the moment.

"So, the silver bullet?"

Vanessa tried to hide her panic by replying in the same calm voice, "White oak bullet, Mr. Caius."

Caius chuckled: "It's very interesting. Is it derived from the Odyssey? Creatures that are resurrected from the dead can only be harmed by 'things that were once or resurrected from the dead'...It sounds very good."

Just when Vanessa thought he was going to shrink back because of this, Caius made a move that was completely unexpected to her——

He held Vanessa's wrist and aimed her gun at his heart.

Crazy and irritable in the scarlet pupils, a raging impulse filled Caius' mind.

"Then shoot now, my dear little Rose."

The gray-blue eyes of the girl in front of him looking straight at him were so beautiful that he shuddered.

Even if he was given another 3000 years, he would not have the courage to insist on destroying it against her wishes.

That being the case, it is better to give her the choice.

—If blasphemy must be destroyed, he chooses to sacrifice himself.

This lunatic!

Legend has it that if a vampire's heart is stabbed precisely by a white oak wood, it will be injured at least, or even near death!

"Let go of Caius! You will be hurt!" The hand holding the gun trembled violently, and Vanessa didn't really have the courage to do it. She regretted making this irrational move impulsively.

She had never seen the crimson stream under Caius' eyes so clearly before, and his complicated eyes made her feel heartbroken, making her want to cry without hesitation.

She wanted to try to understand his complexity, but she was afraid of really knowing his thoughts.She kept avoiding and shrinking in her shell like a clam, until now there was no way to retreat.

Vanessa subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, as if the hand that was on the trigger was afraid of being burned at the moment, she tried to hide her disobedient fingers as much as possible.Then she struggled violently, but her meager strength was not worth mentioning in front of Caius.

"...More than just being injured." Caius stared closely at Vanessa's face to ensure that he would not miss the slightest expression on her face. "I might even die because of it."

Seeing the panicked and even unbelievable expression of the girl in front of him, Caius actually smiled happily: "Have you ever wondered why I can stand in the sun so calmly?"

"Any 'getting' comes at a price, my little Rose."

Caius lowered his eyes, and the last words fell gently, as if admonishing himself.

Concentrating on the violent emotions before, he loosened the restraint on Vanessa.

But Vanessa, who finally regained her freedom, immediately threw the gun away. After doing all this, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and she felt a great sense of fear in her heart because she might hurt him, which made her The body is trembling.

"You can rest assured that I will not do anything to you—or to your friends." Seeing her actions, Caius felt a little better, but only a little.

Caius' tone changed into a formulaic calm. He looked at the aggressive red sports car that appeared on the street corner, and took a step back: "Now, you should go."

Vanessa, who was frightened by his inexplicable behavior, woke up like a dream, this time she did not choose to leave immediately.

"Caius!" Vanessa gasped, her throat felt a little tight, "What you said about 'sunshine'...what did you do?"

Hearing this, Caius raised his eyebrows: "I should be glad that you still remember to care about me?"

Before Vanessa could speak again, Caius lowered his head and pressed a kiss on the back of her hand.

Extremely tender and lingering, just a few seconds seemed to exhaust the lingering in the world.

He walked to the place where the gun was dropped, bent down to pick it up, rubbed the pattern on it gently with his fingertips, and walked to her step by step: "It's just a small weakening of part of the power, you don't have to worry about it. You Just remember-"

Caius' breath lingered in Vanessa's ears again.

He put the gun back in her hand: "Whenever the two of us get along, the gun will always be in your hand, my little Rose."

Until sitting in the car sent by Mr. Stark to pick her up, Vanessa was still struggling with Caius' last words.

He meant, would he be absolutely safe?

But even if the gun is in his hand, how can he be sure that he can pull the trigger?

Her irritability today is obviously not only reflected in her expression.

"You've done a good job, Vanessa." Charles sensed something, "You need to rest now."

Vanessa wasn't surprised that Charles could feel her emotions.Apart from his powerful and abnormal mutant ability, she never tried to hide anything from Charles.

"Sorry, Professor X." Vanessa grabbed her loose hair and tied it at the back of her head casually. "I'm a little distracted today."

Charles asked knowingly, "Are you worried about the vision?"

Vanessa took the towels from him, and replied slowly: "...Well, I think there are some."

"If I'm not absolutely sure, I really wouldn't dare to do it easily, Charles." Vanessa thought about Mr. Stark's unconcealable shock and joy when he heard that he could separate the two that day.

She was too afraid of failing.

Charles was a little amused: "You underestimate yourself, Vanessa. You have great control over your abilities. It won't take long for you to fulfill your wish."

"Well, I admit it, Charles, I had a little trouble before."

Vanessa walked up to Charles, and she sat on the floor without paying attention: "I seem to have a little crush on a different kind."

"What is an 'alien'?" Charles asked calmly, "Vanessa, you have to know that it is useless to deny your feelings."

"Because it's a very immoral emotion." Vanessa said incoherently. "To a certain extent, he can even be said to be a murderer!"

Vanessa shook her head, trying to get rid of those absurd thoughts: "This is an irrational behavior."

And Charles just watched her calmly and tenderly.He watched Vanessa vent his emotions without saying a word the whole time.

After a while, he finally said, "I can see that you are a very calm and sensible girl, Vanessa."

"But at the same time you have to know..." Charles leaned closer to Vanessa, caught off guard, and his two pairs of blue eyes looked at each other frankly.

Some unspeakable emotions are intertwined and tossed in the blue and gray blue.

"The outburst of human emotion is not a rational act in itself."

"As long as you don't harm others or yourself, I don't think so-called 'heterogeneous emotions' exist."

Vanessa continued to deny herself: "But I'm not sure if he will have the same feelings for me."

"You know, Vanessa." Charles pointed to his chest, "You can feel it."

"What's more, with your character, you are not a girl who will fall in love with you when you are not sure about anything."

Vanessa looked away from Charles.

Of course she was aware of the change in Caius.

The firelight above his head was no longer the pure green it was before, but had turned into a rosebud whose shape could be seen but not yet bloomed.

Even... Vanessa looked down and thought that Caius had always admired strength the most before, and he even gave up a small part of his ability in order to be able to stand in the sun.

Although Vanessa didn't dare to say that these were all for herself, she felt that at least she was responsible for a small part of the reason.

"Remember that Love in the Time of Cholera we talked about earlier, Vanessa."

Seeing Vanessa's puzzled look, Charles continued with a gentle smile, "I still remember a sentence in the book that left a deep impression on me."

"'The honest way of life is to do what your body wants, to eat when you're hungry, and not to lie when you're in love.'"

He looked at this girl who was always overly cautious, and sighed subtly.

"Dear Vanessa, never resist yourself."

Captain America, who had just finished his mission, suddenly found that there was an extra person in Stark Tower.

"So, this is our new member?"

He looked at Caius who was reclining on the sofa with some hesitation.

——No matter how you look at this person, he doesn't look like the type who will obediently obey the arrangement.

"Well, that's right." Tony spread his hands, pointing out, "A 'new' member who tried to treat our little girl like an old cow."

Steve frowned: "Pay attention to your language!"

"Okok!" Tony surrendered with both hands, he deliberately didn't give the exact information, "You can entertain this old antique guest for me first, cap, at least teach him to use some modern equipment in the building?"

How to quickly integrate into modern society?

In this regard, Steve Rogers feels that he has a say.

"I was buried under the ice for nearly a hundred years before." He tried to talk to Caius, "Isn't it true that time flies? In just a hundred years, the world has changed so much."

Caius listened to Captain America's exclamation with a blank face.

"Although I don't think it's the right choice for Vanessa to fall in love before the age of 20, I will not stop you young people from falling in love freely."

Steve still thinks he is very enlightened-modern.

"So you don't have to worry. If you really like Vanessa, as long as you learn to accept the gap between you and her and work hard to make up for it, I believe you will have a good ending."

Caius remained expressionless.

Having said that, Steve patted him on the shoulder, looked at his incomparably handsome appearance and said with emotion: "The gap between you should not be big, at most about ten years old..."

Caius said lightly: "Three thousand."

Steve: "?"

"I mean," Caius said with a "kind" smirk.

"There is probably a three thousand years difference between me and her."
