The Hunt For Immortal Love
Chapter 123 Tormented Dream

The darkness of night sets in...

For some reason it feels like I have been here before.

As I slowly start to open my eyes, it all comes flooding back to me.

"Anastasia!"

But then.

The darkness of night sets in...

What seems like only moments later, I slowly open my eyes again.

"Anastasia!"

Again only but darkness sets in.

Soon the light makes way again and as my eyes open slowly one by one, I replace a man with a rather stupid grin on his face smiling at me.

"Do we need to knock you out again?"

"My dear Bobby, you hit me with that darn bat again and I shall chew your hands off."

He looks over to Anastasia still very much amused, "I think we need to hit him again, he still sounds a bit violent to me." Anastasia only but chuckles at him as she comes to sit by my side, "Bobby, I think you are enjoying this far too much."

"Hey, I don't know if I will ever get the chance, so hell, by all means, let me knock the shit out of him."

But just then much to my relief, his phone starts to persistently light up, as he looks down at the screen, he rather amuses me with this every time, "Balls, it is the boys, I have to go. The Siren is dead and you should be fine now. Now for god sakes, leave the hunting to the Hunters."

I only but wave him off as he disappears out the door.

Now I do believe that I owe my beloved a big apology, so as I take her hand she but gives me one look, "Don't you even dare, it was not your fault Sebastian so do not apologize."

"But my beloved, is that not how I should then feel deep down in the dark side of me?"

"Well, let us hope that your deep dark side never comes up again, and I am leaning towards agreeing with Bobby, I think it is time we leave the hunting for the Hunters. This time things truly got scary, we could have lost two of the Belmont house by our own hands."

"I do agree with you there, but also, I am going to add, that one never says never."

"Let us at least try to keep it to never. Now if you feel up to it, there is a guest that has been waiting for your presence for the past two days."

"Please do not tell me that it is a guest with a problem?"

"He indeed has a problem, but that I shall leave for him to discuss with you."

And that but only sparks my curiosity, now who shall wait for me patiently to return from my madness only to reveal a problem that he could have resolved himself by now? Well, I need not to ask any further, for as I descend the stairs, I immediately become aware of his presence. As I turn the corner, I am delighted to see a very dear old friend of mine.

"Breyden, my friend, it is so good to see you."

"Sebastian, I heard that you are being beaten upstairs there. Now I would have loved to see it but you know that I do not take kindly to see my friends get hurt."

"Ah, I do appreciate the concern then. So I am guessing that you are not here to bring me flowers."

"In heavens name, no. I have come with news."

"My beloved said you had a problem?"

He looks somewhat nervous, now that is one thing I never see Breyden do and that is to look nervous. He is carrying a great deal with him. Something does have the man spooked, I am going to go out here and guess that it has to do with the girls.

"My friend, is there something wrong with the girls?"

"Oh no, not at all."

"Then tell me how are they doing?"

"Teagen has settled with that friend of the man, he is fully intending to claim her as his beloved."

"And our dear Tasnim?"

"She and this man, Carson have completed their union. So the girls my friend, they are both doing fine and living the happy lives that they are supposed to do."

I look at him somewhat confused then, he is at the best of the times on the slower side, but he seems to be really holding something back this time. It is giving him a great deal of pain for that I can see in his eyes, as for his mind, well that I cannot read. He has come all this far to give me the news that is troubling him and I can by the way his heart is beating, understand that this news will be changing both our lives.

So I turn to my beloved, not that I wish to be rude, but I turn to her and softly whisper to her, "My beloved, can you give us a few moments, I will come up in a short while."

With that, she leaves the common room and I can immediately sense some relief in Breyden, but yet this does not get him to speak freely at first. So I patiently wait until he can gather the strength to get off his troubled mind. And as he finally speaks, I can honestly say that the man is near to the brink of shedding a fountain of tormented tears.

"Sebastian, I have decided to return."

"Return to where?"

"My home, my real home. I think it is time. The girls are safe in their own rather abnormal way. There is no further need for me here. I have learned the lesson that I had to down here and I feel I can return." "But your life is here my friend."

"And my family is up there. Yes, I am going to miss all the friends that have grown to be family down here, but I do miss the comfort of home. I only but dwell by myself now."

"Then come live here, there is more than enough room."

"Sebastian, you have Anastasia. And Lilith has Stefan. Then Edward, well Edward has many."

The very mention of Edward and his many makes me chuckle and even brings some nasty reminders back of the two past days of tortured dreams, which by the way I still need to explore for a Vampire should not dream, well that is what I know. But that is beside the point, my friend wants to leave from here and I feel I have to stop him from doing so. But, then again, shall I not be selfish to keep him away from what he desires. Perhaps. Maybe. I don't know. "Breyden, have you given this some great thought? This is such a tremendous change in your life, and I am guessing that once you leave you cannot return?"

"Not unless I get kicked out again, which I do not foresee in happening at all. You have taught me a lot about the values of life. I have had more meaningful lessons from immortals than I had from mortals. Your friendship and guidance are what brought me through this journey, through this lesson that I needed to learn."

"But there are always other lessons to learn. I, myself are still learning them every day. I too thought that I knew everything until I met my beloved, she has also taught me things that I never knew existed and even far better made me feel all these things in return. Is it not possible for you to replace yourself such a companion?"

"You are asking me to replace another angel on earth?"

I see as he studies me intently, and by the way, he is slightly tilting his head, I am very sure that he is now reading my mind. So as his face lights up rather awkwardly, he looks at me and smiles. "You are surely not suggesting a Vampire are you, Sebastian?"

"I am saying it is a thought. But even a human, why can't you replace a companion and build a new family here?"

"My biggest desire is to go home. And my friend you have forgotten that if a Vampire drinks from me that they shall die."

"Yes, but I am not saying that they have to drink from you. The companionship, that is what counts my friend. You need not to taste someone's blood to have an intimate moment with them."

"You do make things sound so appealing sometimes. It is funny how I was supposed to replace myself between the mortals and learn their lesson on caring for another, yet I found that in a creature with a big ego and a lust for blood." "Well, which ego are you referring to?"

There is a rumble of pure laughter come from his belly, for just a moment he seems to forget about the difficult decision that lies ahead for him. I want to believe that as he said that he has made up his mind, but I have known the man for long enough to know that he came here looking for advice, and advice is what I shall give.

"My dear friend, I, not because I am trying to be selfish in any way, but I think that you should remain here. And when I say here, I mean in the Belmont house, there is always room for another and we all shall have you gladly." "Sebastian, I appreciate the offer, but..."

"I know, I know that you need to have a companion, and I think I might just have the right one for you."

I slowly nod my head and show for him to listen, and as his eyes widen, I know that he is very shocked at my suggestion. "Think about it, don't leave yet."
