Vampire Chronicles 24 Leaving Lilith Kingdom

"Good Morning lord Vicar an Sir Enguerrand ." Jasper smiled at them both as Sir Enguerrand gave a nasty look as Lord vicar returned back with a smile.

"Where is miss Nicole, I must apologies to her about yesterday. I almost killed her, it was not my attention to do that what so forever." lord vicar looked down at his words. As Jasper looked at him with the same expression. Sir Enguerrand spat to himself.

"Why do u humans continue to fond with these humans back in my day all we did was use them for blood what's the difference now huh?"

Just as Jasper was going to give Sir Enguerrand a piece of his mind Charles suddenly came in with Percy as Sir Enguerrand & Jasper bowed to them.

"She's asleep at the moment Vicar, why do you want to see her if I may ask" Charles said as he looked through the papers.

"Well Prince Charles, I wanted to apologies to Nicole . My anger just suddenly slipped out, it was very much out of my character. However you know the law with us about having humans as lovers. "Lord Vicar handed Charles a Flower that Nicole given to him. Charles slowly grabbed the flower from him as it wilts in his hands.

"I know the law...Lord Vicar it's been forever since I had human contact with anyone, Expect for Lori. Nicole, I found her interesting the moment I first saw her. I don't care about the law separating us or telling me I can't be with her. I love her with all of my being, I swear to protect with my life if comes down to it." Charles spoke pa.s.sionately about Nicole. He was truly confident about his lover. Jasper And Vicar gave eachother a worried look.

"Charles I have forgotten that they will punish any vampire & human that have a relationship with eachother is just bound by law. The court comes every few years, to each kingdom with rules. The court has very powerful vampires that goes way back before we even existed. That doesn't mean that the newer generation can take them down. If you truly love this girl than I hope you start treating her right my prince." Jasper said silently as Charles shook his head slowly going to door as Loris Vicar placed his hands on Charles shoulders.

"If the court does come, what would you do Charles just think about it. Please for your safety an hers. That's if you two even stay together for along time." Vicar lets go of his shoulder as he turns away from him.

"I will think about it Lord Vicar thank you for your concern. I shall think upon it with my lovers safety. I'm sure we will be together forever. " Charles bowed at them an left Percy's office, causing him to think about the situation that could cause him and Nicole his fate. Charles headed over to Nicole's room giving himself permission to go into her room.  Once he entered the room he saw Nicole wearing causal clothing as she puts her shoes on.

"Where are you going Nicole? " Charles was not amused by her sudden action to get out if bed. Nicole looked at him and looked the other way as gathered her things together.

"I can't stay here anymore, it was a pleasure to stay here. I must be going home my actual home. I know that your going to get mad but I over here your conversation in Percy's office. I thought it was best that I leave. Thank you for taking care of me." Nicole bowed at him are she grabbed bag and Wales pa.s.sed him. She felt his body close to her as he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind.

"If you leave....who will take care of you. I don't want anything to happen to you but if you want to go them you can. I want you to know I love you with all in me." Nicole rubbed his arms with a smile thinking about his warm gently body against hers.

"I will return one day but right now I must leave. I missed so much school time it makes no sense. I am thankful for your help thank you Charles. "Nicole turned around an gave Charles a kiss in the lips as she separated herself from him walking away. Charles watched her disappear in the distance as he clenched his fist hitting the wall next to him leaving cracks. Jasper walked up beside him an rubbed his back as Charles looked at him with a expression that Jasper never seen before. It was a mixture of anger and sadness that welled up in his mind soul and body.

"How about you vent your thoughts outside the palace an into the woods somewhere " Jasper spoke softly as Charles suddenly grabbed his neck slamming him in the wall as Jasper clenched his hands over his, he was highly surprised at Charles actions.

"I shall not go to the forest, where my beloved Lori died!! I loved her just as much as I love Nicole! She was just a p.a.w.n from the start!! When I buried Lori I knew" Jaspers eyes widened as he saw Nicole a few feet away from where Charles. She shook her head an turned the other way leaving the palace for good. Jasper gave him a forceful slap across the face as Charles released Jasper from his deadly grip coughing violently as Jasper held his throat causing him to growl.

"Have you gone mad Charles!!! Your temper is out if control you need to learn how to control it before I d-" Jasper suddenly gasp as he felt a sharp object pierce his chest from behind.  Charles screamed out Jaspers name as Jasper fell into his arms holding his chest tightly as the dark figure disappeared instantly without  a trace. Charles let the tears fall from his face as Jasper closed his eyes taking his final moments for air.

"Charles my friend...we been together for century's now my time is up....thank you for this wonderful life that you have you given. I hate when we fight but it only makes us stronger. It was a pleasure serving you my friend..."

"Now I can rest easy..."  Jasper took his final breath as his body turned into ash as Charles looked down at his hands seeing his beloved friend gone. Rage only consumed Charles body, he wanted nothing bit revenge. Someone took his only friend out the world so they shall pay with a gruesome death. Charles grabbed a vase beside him sc.r.a.pping together Jaspers ashes in the vase. He walked into his office setting down vase on the fireplace next to a picture when Jasper & himself was younger.

Charles sat down in his chair as he takes a out pen wanting to read and sign what was important but he couldn't. The image of his long loved friend gone in a instant, Jasper have been around longer than Charles but he still seen him as a close friend he cherished within him. Tears of blood fell from is face like a unless stream.

He felt bad for how he treated Jasper an Nicole so wrongly, especially Nicole. He always promises her things that he can't keep, when he made such a sudden confession to Jasper about her he knew it would hurt her but Lori was his first love how could he forget. Though Jasper  started falling  in love with Lori before Charles ever did an he took her away from his world that he held dearly to her. Jasper maintained his anger and sadness within him never letting his madness consume him until for Charles.

Charles ended up breaking and destroying things around his office leaving it a mess for the butlers an maids to clean up. That same day he ended up walking around the city wondering if he should see Nicole in his current state. He knows he hurt her but now have to pick up the pieces of his life again without  Jasper nor Nicole.
