"Please don't leave. You seemed very lonely when I came across you. In that you and I are alike. I have been alone for nearly one hundred and fifty years." He stepped back, giving her more room, "My people are blessed with many gifts...immortality being one of them, but are cursed to live a life of loneliness unless they find the only other who can complete them."

"SO I'm the other half of your immortal soul....right...this just keeps getting better..." she still was uneasy.

"I believe so. The males of my kind lose their emotions and their colors. I am young, so my emotions have just recently left and my colors were extremely washed out. When I looked at you, the colors were not washed, but as vivid as ever. I did not realize how greatly I had fallen..."

"No...fallen as in into the darkness. My memories of my emotions were becoming weaker...but that is the way it is with Carpathians."

"Carpathian. I am a creature of the night, blessed with great powers and cursed with a terrible pull to use that power to do wrong. If I did so, I would lose my soul and become the undead." He shrugged at the commonness of what he said.

Phoenix shook his head. "You are lying. There can be no untruth between lifemates. And I could easily deal with your brothers, if you had them." His heart sank and he reminded himself that she didn't understand. "I would not wish to upset them though. So if your family is so important, leave." He took a deep breath and turned away from her. "I will find you again, though."

Phoenix cursed mentally. "I do not wish to scare you..." He eyed the horizon. "But the dawn will arrive soon and I must go to ground before then. I ask that you allow me to see you again. I would very much like the chance to get to know you, Demonique."
