Julio Cesar and his gang left home because they couldn't wait to get 'stuffed' with free blood at the party, because for months they had been saving their supplies at home so that they wouldn't hunt more than they needed to avoid suspicion. Their costumes didn't run away from their reality since Julio Cesar was dressed as Dracula-the one from Bram Stocker's book that tells what their ancestors did, although a lot of things hadn't been told.

Brenda also opted for not escaping her reality by dressing as a witch, the difference was the pointy hat.

Lais went for the costume of a very sexy vampire, like Alira from the movie Van Helsing, since her dress revealed more than hid her body due to the transparency of the fabric she had chosen. In my opinion, the only one who didn't like the 'life' he had was Marcus, who was very simple when he chose an army soldier costume.

In the middle of the way a very interesting surprise happened after all, meeting old acquaintances not seen for a long time is always a surprise, right?

-Well, well, if it isn't the new residents of Lacrimal city -says an aristocratic voice coming from a guy dressed as the exterminator from the future with the difference being the light blond hair sticking up and the eyes in the same tone.

Julio Cesar narrowed his dark gaze at the demand with a nod-who are you?

The stranger smiled as he introduced himself as Lucas and nodded to the boy beside him dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow except for his blue eyes as his brother Lucian.

-My name is Julio Cesar," he said in his driest tone.

The brothers looked at each other in the typical stare down of strangers.

-Are you going to the ball?

An ordinarily unnecessary question since they were all dressed up, but in order not to let the 'climax' of a bad conversation start

Lucas spoke up.

-You know it's for the hospital that had its blood supply looted- and looked suggestively at Julio Cesar and his group- and one or two broken things.

-Don't tell me," said the latter ironically, "and have you found out who did it?

-No, and the most interesting thing is that the security cameras didn't record anything.

Strange, isn't it?

Julio Cesar nodded, and as the conversation continued they headed towards the ball. Further away from them a stranger with beautiful narrow light green eyes, dressed as a demolisher, followed them like a lion on the prowl for prey. Amy and Soraia along with many other girls were dancing happily to the sound of remixed electronic music.

Suddenly a sizable group of people entered the room, but the one who attracted her attention the most at that moment was a woman who came forward dressed as a witch and then that voice in thought came to her mind - watch out for the witch - and her skin shivered. But then her gaze was drawn to a stranger who had entered last and what she felt

But it wasn't long before other dark eyes devoured her, making her heart fear and long for something she didn't even know what it was.

Amy noticed the distress in her friend's gestures and even asked her what was wrong with her, but she denied it.

Dracula dress and then glared at it as if it would fly at her, but soon her gaze was drawn to the honey-colored eyes and the air caught in her throat, but soon she looked away.

Marcus felt a tightening in his heart that long ago did not even feel it beating anymore, and then a conversation older than his time came back to his mind- Marcus, in the near future you will come across a great love.

She had hypnotized you with an emerald gaze.

-Emeralds- she murmured as she came back to the present moment and smiled as she saw the emerald eyes drifting away from hers.

Brenda felt Marcus's happiness emanating from her body, but she had also felt Lais's anger towards the green-eyed girl he admired.

Why? Lais, Lais, what are you hiding that I can't find out, - Brenda thought with her gaze fixed on her, who in turn was angrily staring at the girl, and trying to dig something out of her.

It hadn't been that time...yet.

The night went on calmly, despite everything. Julio Cesar and the stranger didn't take their eyes off Soraia who danced next to Amy who was surrounded by the eyes of both Lais and Marcus.

Brenda kept everyone in her field of vision, but especially Lais and the stranger at the request of Julio Cesar who was already thinking of taking him out of the field if you know what I mean.

At one point in the evening Julio Cesar made the decision to change tactics, in other words it was time to move from defense to offense.

-Brenda? - called to his faithful ally who was leaning against the drinks table with an almost empty glass in hand.

Brenda answered him promptly with a servile look, standing upright and dropping the glass.

-What do you want, my lord? Julio Cesar looked at the girl laughing next to Soraia -Do you see that girl?

The stranger narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth when he heard Julio Cesar's request. But this one thing he had done.

  • Soraia beware of the witch," he whispered in the air.

Soraia shuddered as she heard that voice rumbling through her body and spirit.

Oh how she wanted to find out who that intense voice belonged to.

-Amy- whispers echoed in the air and reached the ears of Amy who was sipping a juice when she felt hypnotized by a voice that made her turn around smiling- introduce your friend to Count Dracula- she nodded.

Brenda managed to look Soraia in the eye, but something had confused her. After all, never in all these centuries of life had a soul been hidden from her.

Soraia hadn't even noticed that Brenda had tried to enter her mind. Apparently her mind had created a shield to protect her from intrusions, and little does she know that in the very near future this will be one of her greatest powers...

-How about if I introduce you to the Count?

Soraia hadn't even realized that Amy was speaking to her, as her eyes searched for the owner of the mysterious voice, but unfortunately found nothing.

-What did you say?

Amy snorted and took Soraia by the arm like a stubborn child to Julio Cesar who was already waiting anxiously for them.

-Soraia, don't go, - whispered the voice, and in an instant of lucidity she didn't even know why she was doing this, but abruptly withdrew her arm from her friend's hand with a shout, "no!

Amy shook her head, confused not only by her friend's shout but also as if she had been plucked from a very dark place back into the light.

-I'm not going. And you're not going either, - Soraia decreed as she reversed positions and led Amy away.

-Brenda, what happened? -screamed Julio Cesar angrily staring at the woman in front of him who also didn't understand what had happened since this had never happened before.

-I don't know. Julio Cesar managed to control his scream of rage as he stomped away from Brenda who was certain in her mind that SORAIA WAS.

But who said Julio Cesar would give up?

-Marcus shouted, not that it was necessary for vampires and werewolves, not even the music as loud as it was now would have disturbed a conversation in a low tone, but anger drove his shout.

Marcus sighed in dismay, for something told him that whatever Julius Cesar came to ask of him he would not like to do.

-What do you want?

-Have you seen the girl next to Soraia?

How could he not, because from the moment he entered the room his eyes were drawn to her, and in that second he knew he was in love. And when a vampire falls in love, it's for real and for eternity.

Marcus nodded, but what Julius Cesar ordered destroyed him, it was like driving a stake through his heart.

  • Kill.

-What? Why?!

-Because I want to," he growled, and shrugged his shoulders without giving Marcus a chance to choose. Marcus felt the tears that had been dry in his eyes for centuries blaze.
