regained his composer, "I'd rather be a circus freak with no one than a man who had someone that he took for granted by being disloyal, man I don't hate you, I pity you" Red said calmly as he turned around and left. Ty stood there for a second, thinking about what Red said, "what the fuck do you know" he muttered to himself as he turned to rejoin the whores who were anxiously awaiting him.

As Red made his way through the crowd, someone tapped his shoulder. Red turned to see the most beautiful face smiling at him he had ever seen. To anyone else she was just another face in the crowd, she had a plain quality about her, and a certain sadness in her big green eyes, even when she smiled. "Don't let him get you down, I think you're adorable" she said pinching his cheek. Red adjusted his glasses and gave her a big toothy smile. He was nervous about getting attention from the female kind but he felt strangely at ease with her. "Thank you kind lady and who might you be?" he said politely. "My name is Delilah, recent addition to the world of the undead, pleased to meet you and what might your name be?" Red took her hand and kissed it, "Pleasure to meet you Delilah, Red here at your service!" She smiled, "My aren't you the charmer!" They walked outside into the night air and found a bench in a nearby park and talked into the wee hours of the morning, just before sunlight they bid each other farewell and vaped into the night. Someone had finally found Red. 

Chapter 31: The Truth Shall Set You Free

I slept peacefully and was feeling more energetic than usual. I took a shower, applied some make-up and got dressed. I had found a gorgeous teal colored dress that was semi-short, coming to mid thigh. It was made of a soft, stretchy material with long fitted sleeves, the top wrapped around creating a draping effect that swept across my chest, leaving a slight bit of cleavage showing, giving the dress a subtle, sexy elegance. I slipped on a pair of high heel black, strappy sandals with a delicate silver buckle at the ankle. The dress fit  me flawlessly, and was very comfortable, no doubt about it Adam knew my taste, it was something I would have bought for myself.

I walked over to the nightstand, picked up the little brass bell and rang it. Before I could even set the bell back down on the nightstand Adam appeared. "You Rang?" he said sounding like Igor addressing Dr. Frankenstein. I chuckled, "Nice impression Igor!" He smiled, "You look absolutely beautiful Sil" he said in admiration. "Thanks Adam, you look quite handsome yourself" I said returning the compliment. He was sensing something was off. "Silvie, are you alright?" he asked with concern in his voice. "Of course I am, why do you ask, don't I look alright?" I replied. "Well, you seem just a little too bright eyed and bushy-tailed considering your whole world came crashing down on you last night, I mean shouldn't you be a little teary eyed at the very least?" he responded. I just shrugged my shoulders, "It's really quite simple Adam, you gave me clarity to the situation and confirmed what I've been questioning for some time now. Ty clearly doesn't love me. I feel nothing but hatred for him, I won't waste one more tear on him. I'll have my moment when I seek vengeance against him, and believe me when I say, I will. Just knowing each night that passes is one more night closer to the moment when I wipe the slate clean. In the meantime there's you. No one has ever made me feel so loved and safe except for my father, how can I not love you for that. Long ago you asked me if I loved you, I wasn't ready to love you the way you wanted me to, I'm ready now. I love you Adam" I said as I walked up to him, wrapped my arms around his neck, pulled him to me and kissed him. 

They closed their eyes as they lost themselves in a moment of blissful passion for one another. Her lips felt so soft and tender against his. Their tongues entwined, the sensation built as did the intensity of the kiss itself. His hands glided down the soft fabric as he felt her gentle curves beneath. He could feel her hands tenderly rubbing his back muscles down his spine.

Adam opened his eyes to see Silvia's still closed, he slowly stopped and began to pull away. As he did she opened her eyes, wondering why he had stopped. "Silvia, do you really love me or are you just toying with me?" he asked in a serious tone. I looked into his eyes and saw his confusion."Yes Adam, I do love you" I said as I drew myself closer to him, resting my head against his chest. "Why would you think I'm toying with you?" I softly asked him. "Aren't you mad at me Sil? I completely invaded your privacy, saw things I had no business seeing. I should have left you alone, forgotten about you, then you'd be at home right now with your mother enjoying your life, I messed everything up for you Sil, how could you ever possibly forgive me for that?" he said sadly.

I pulled away from him, grabbing his hand I led him to the loveseat in front of the fire. As we sat down I turned to him and said, "Adam, you saved me. If things had gone differently I would be at home right now with my mom, but I'd be living a lie. I'd still be loving someone who was not who I thought they were. You've been put to the test time and time again and have come out a righteous man. Everything you have done, you've done out of love for me. I know you feel guilty, but you have done nothing that requires my forgiveness. No Adam you have saved me, and I love you for it" I said to him with conviction.

"Sil, you know I've never been able to trust people. Out of everyone in the world you're the only one I ever let in. Do you realize the responsibility that comes with that? If you tell me you love me and I find out that you don't, I wouldn't be able to handle it. Do you understand what I'm saying to you?" he asked. I thought about this for a second, Adam had always been well liked, very popular but also very guarded. He trusted no one, and though he never told me why, I was sure he had his reasons and knew he would tell me why he was that way when he was ready to. In the meantime I didn't push him. I knew he was feeling extremely vulnerable and I understood why, one night I'm screaming how much I hate him and suddenly I'm telling him that I love him. I could see why he wasn't ready to let his guard down. We needed a plan so I could begin to regain his trust.

"Adam, why don't we take it slow and court each other like they used to in the olden days?" I suggested. He shot a big smile at me, "You mean like go on dates?" he asked with a certain excitement in his voice. "Yes, we could date each other, you know, get to know each other all over again, what do you think of that idea?" I replied. "It's a great idea Sil, but you can't leave here yet, it's not safe and I'm not going to risk losing you a second time" he said looking me straight in the eyes. I knew this wasn't going to be up for negotiation, "What do you suggest then?" I asked. "Well, this house is huge, though it's not really a house, it's more like a castle, actually it is a castle. I've been wanting you to see it, so maybe we can use each room as a new place to go on our dates? Would that be alright? he asked. "That would work, I think I'd really like that! Adam, I've noticed that everything around us screams wealth, even the clothes, which by the way, you have really good taste, everything is so beautiful. Anyways, how did you acquire this kind of lifestyle?" I asked curiously. Adam stood up, "Ah! Now that is an excellent topic for our first date, "how Adam the wayward vampire became a tycoon practically overnight!" he said making grandioes gestures with his hands. I giggled, "Oh boy, I can't wait to hear this story! So when are you going to ask me out?" I asked him anxiously. "Well, I have some preparations to make first, so why don't we meet up at midnight, and not that what you''re wearing isn't stunning, but I'd like to request something long and formal, if you don't mind my love" Adam said looking at me with those sexy, soft, dark brown eyes of his. "Anything you want Adam, I'm really looking forward to this! It would be nice to have a change of scenery, besides the dungeon!" I said jokingly as I got up and walked to him, giving him a great big hug. "Thank you for loving me" I said and I gave him a sweet little peck of a kiss on his cheek. "I do love you Silvie, so damn much, thank you for letting me, I'll see you at midnight" He kissed me on the cheek and then he was gone.

 

Chapter 32: Seeking Sound Advice

Adam had business to take care of with Miranda, his business associate. Though it was Miranda who was responsible for Adam's transformation he had the utmost respect for her.

Discovering he was an avid chemist, she set him up with his own laboratory and any materials he needed at his disposal. When he was alive, he was attending a junior college and majoring in chemistry. Adam's desire was to eventually become a chemist and work for a major pharmaceutical company. He achieved even greater heights in his life of the undead, than he had
