another’s blood was not appealing, but the thought of spending eternity with this mysterious man was. She rolled her eyes at her absurd thoughts.

Dimitri wrapped an arm about her shoulders and closed his eyes. He had never once considered changing a human and never once had he been tempted, until now, but he could not condemn anyone to a life of death.

“You have never come across someone that you wanted to change?” she asked, shattering the heavy silence.

“Not until you.”

Dimitri was shocked by his confession and he felt the surprise sprint down Kerstyn’s spine.

Her mouth grew dry as the meaning of his words settled over her. He had thought about changing her. A flame of excitement ignited in her chest and spread throughout her body. Her eyes moved to the strong pulse that lay beneath the flesh of his neck. Her tongue wet her lips.

“Why have you never thought about it before?”

“You are special, Kerstyn.” He kissed the top of her strawberry blonde head, inhaling the delicate fragrance of her hair.

“There is nothing special about me. I'm just an ordinary human, normal,” she said.

He tilted her chin up with his thumb and captured her gaze.

“You are special to me. You have brought me back to life when I have been cold and dead for so long.”

She placed her hand over his heart and closed her eyes focusing on the sound of his breathing and she allowed his words to settle in her soul. Warmth flooded her and tears gathered in her eyes. He pressed her more tightly against him and she felt cherished.

“You are anything but dead.” She moved her head over his chest, her ear resting above his heart. “I can feel your breath and hear your heart beat.”

“Death settled in my veins long ago. I no longer require oxygen, food, water, or the intake of blood. My body has been nothing but a hollow shell for centuries, needing nothing, wanting nothing.” Kerstyn felt his breathing slow as he spoke and the sound of his beating heart began to fade.
