The Journey

~ Chapter Six ~

The next morning when they went to Black Wolf Agency, James asked Yvonne if it would be alright if he took a few days off to spend with Kate. They told her that they wanted to do some research in France while she visited relatives. Being the kindhearted woman he always found her to be, she granted his request. Of course, he didn’t tell her that the real reason for their trip was to find and seek out information from an old werewolf who, when Kate met him a couple lifetimes ago, lived in a secluded area on the outskirts of Paris. After all, Kate was fairly certain that Lucius would still be living there. She said he was never one to move around a lot.

When James was on lunch break, he looked up the flight schedules for that evening, and amazingly, there was a straight-through flight available from New York City to Paris, France, taking off at 6pm that evening. He immediately booked the tickets without even caring about the price.

After work, they hurried back to his apartment to get ready to go, packing only the bare essentials in a couple carry-on bags. Kate made sure to wear clothes that concealed her skin as much as possible and a black headscarf, knowing that the plane would land in Paris sometime during daylight hours in the morning.

They rushed to the airport and boarded the plane, and after 10 excruciatingly long hours, the plane finally landed in Paris. The airport had an adjoining hotel, so accommodations could be easily made. At the reception desk, James asked the clerk if they could rent the darkest room they had. He told her that they needed it because his girlfriend had a rare skin disorder and couldn’t be exposed to sunlight. Kate loved how he could manage to tell the truth like that without revealing her vampirism or making anyone suspicious.

When they found their room, James made sure to go in first and close all the curtains and blinds tight before Kate entered. As Kate stared at the blackened windows, he noticed her eyes glaze over with tears.

“What’s wrong, honey?” he asked her.

“I miss the sunlight,” she said, wiping her tears away with her sleeve. She looked up at him and smiled. What else could she say? Three hundred years without the sun was truly depressing.

“Well, hopefully you won’t have to miss out on it much longer.”

“Hopefully,” she said with a longing sigh. “Well, since we’re going to be stuck in here all day, we might as well get some sleep. I’m sure you’re exhausted, too.”

“Yes, definitely,” he replied with a yawn.

Almost immediately after they lay down in bed, they fell asleep in each other’s arms.
