Chapter 19: Who Lifted the Curse?

“Mom… Mama….”

The girl kept crying out in her sleep, sometimes for her mother, other times for her father. I thought it was a good thing that she was at least speaking, even if she seemed to be having nightmares while she rested.

go?

It was a long night, but I stayed with her.

After all, she was asleep in my bed. Where else would I

Sitting next to her, I did my best to keep her calm, but it was difficult, and as the night wore on, I began to grow rather weary myself.

“Daddy!” she shouted, flinging both arms up into the air. “Daddy-no!”

“It’s all right, Ciana,” I said, smoothing her hair back and trying to get her to stop moving her arms so wildly. “It’s just a dream. You’re okay.”

“Daddy, please! No!”

The way she was crying out, I thought perhaps her father or her mother had done something awful to her at some point in time. But other times, the things she said made it seem like someone was hurting her parents.

I knew it had to all be just dreams, but it was all very dis- turbing, even for me.

I didn’t know how to explain what I was feeling. When she was awake, the things that she did, the words that she said just made me want to throw her out of the window some- times, so shouldn’t I be happy that she wasn’t able to bother me at this moment?

Yet, I didn’t like to see her so upset. I didn’t like hearing her cry out like that. Perhaps it was because she was still too noisy. So… I smoothed her hair and whispered to her, “Hey, it’s all right….”

Her lips were chapped, probably because she hadn’t had anything to eat or drink for a while. I didn’t want her to get sick. I did need her blood after all. I took a glass of water and slowly dripped it into her mouth, being careful not to choke her.

She seemed to be awake enough to swallow at least. I managed to get a little bit of water down her, which helped her fall back to sleep for a short while until she started wig- gling again in her nightmares.

After a few rounds of this, even I was exhausted. I sat down on the edge of my bed next to her and closed my eyes. just to get a few minutes of rest.

But my mind was busy with thoughts of everything that had gone on that night. Luther… or whoever the hell that was- what did he want?

And Ciana. What could I do to wake her up?

“Mama?” Ciana’s voice brought me out of my attempt to

sleep. I leaned over and looked at her. Moonlight steamed over her face, her hair reflecting the light and creating a soft glow around her.

Now that I had the chance to actually appreciate her fa- cial features, I had to say, she really was strikingly gorgeous. Even through my gloves, I could tell her skin was smooth like porcelain, and it went really well with her bright blue eyes… when they were open.

Perhaps what made her even more appealing was the fact that she didn’t seem stuck up about how pretty she was at all,

unlike most of the other candidates.

“No, no…” Ciana moaned again. “Somebody, help!”

I hated to see her this way. Because… I was worried about her blood, of course.
