The forgotten premonition

If sleeping for the past weeks was peaceful, I didn't know how to describe my sleep tonight. It was not just comfortable. It was… heart-warming.

Even in my sleep, I could feel Sam's warmth cradling me. I love this man, this vampire.

I never felt this powerful emotion in my heart. Even though I loved my father, loving Sam was just a different kind of love.

Who would have thought that a peasant like me would experience such a wonderful phenomenon? That after all the angst and fear for my everyday life, I'd find my solitude in this world reigned by vampires?

Here, in his embrace, was my heaven in this hell. It was as if this was where I belong. That I lived, survived, and thrived all this years just for this moment.

Can you see me, Father?

In my dreams, I stood in the middle of a beautiful field of blooming flowers. The soft wind blew past me, and then Father appeared from a distance.
