Chapter 4

Evelyn tossed and turned in his sleep, he woke up and found that he was not at home. Bury birch walls, bunk bed with beige linens. wooden furniture, chest of drawers, closet, and a nightstand next to the bed.

Evelyn got out of bed, wearing gray-white pajamas several sizes larger. On the dresser lay his clothes with a bag, next to the pillow his plush rabbit.

Evelyn took him in his hands, he left the room holding his pants with one hand so that they would not slip off. There were two more rooms on the floor, he noticed that everywhere the windows were bequeathed, which is not surprising, if this is a vampire's house, then everything is clear. Vampires see well in the dark and are resistant to cold, but because of this, they do not see well in the sun, they have a weak iris, so if you see a vampire during the day, he will be wearing sunglasses. Vampires, like albinos, cannot walk under the sun, they get sunburn. And even though they are resistant to cold, by the heat they are very vulnerable.

Before Evelyn there was a staircase up and down, he decided without thinking twice to go upstairs.

There were two rooms upstairs. It looked like one bedroom, and in the other room there was someone, there was a roar and someone hummed, the voice was masculine and low, and an incomprehensible accent was heard.

Evilin opened the door and saw Ackerman drawing something on a large canvas, everything was smeared with paint, different brushes, pencils, cans of paints were lying on the floor. The man himself was also covered in paint from head to toe. There was supposedly a white T-shirt lying on the floor, but it was difficult to understand because of the colors on it. The man himself was topless.Evelyn saw the tattoos on the vampire's body. on the right hand from below to the wrist there was a tattoo of a snake and a rose, there was something else written in Chinese, but the guy could not make out. There was a tattoo of the sun on the sternum on the left, on the neck some kind of incomprehensible tattoo descending to the chest with strange symbols. On the back from the tattoo on the neck there was some incomprehensible tattoo whose patterns resembled wings.

Evelyn carefully closed the door and went downstairs. He changed his clothes as quickly as possible, folded his pajamas neatly, went downstairs and left the three-story building. Eric heard that someone left, he looked at the room where Evilyn was supposed to be, but there was no trace of the guy there. - Scary as a kitten .. - Eric chuckled as he closed the door behind him.

. . . .

Evilin after returning home and went to work, his girlfriends were waiting in the office. Evelyn sat down in his seat.

" I wonder why Mr. Ackerman has already helped me twice? But he's pretty cute, but I think he's very serious, cute and serious.. Cute and serious... And handsome..." Evilin thought with a slight blush, but his thoughts were interrupted by Natalya. - What are you thinking about?- The girl asked - Nothing about ... - Evilin answered, red as a tomato.

Casetta entered the room - Even, the head of the department, Mr. Ackerman, wants to see you! - The girl called the guy.

Evilyn gulped, stood up and walked towards Eric's office, thinking the worst.

. .

On the way, Evelyn discovered that the manager was looking at him. Evelyn knocked on the door and went in when he heard "Come in"

The windows in the office were curtained, although it was already dark.

Eric was sitting at the table with glasses reading some papers, Evilyn noticed a gold ring on the index finger of his right hand. It had the coat of arms of the Roberts family on it, but there was also a snake with a rose,as on Eric's arm, it was the snake from the Feng family crest.

These two families of vampires were to come to an alliance through a marriage of convenience through centuries of feuding. Feng YangLi and Samuel Roberts were supposed to woo, for this they made this ring, so that their firstborn would wear it as proof of the union between families.

But YanLi ran away before the wedding with her real lover, they said that it was some kind of Jew. They had a son, who was nicknamed "Son of the Moon", but when they died, Sam and Sora took the child yourself .

Someone said his name was Eric Roberts, someone said Feng Xiaolong. But they buried him with the name Feng Xiaolong, but his real name is still unknown.

Evelyn looked puzzled at the ring. Where does he get this ring from if he is neither Feng nor Roberts, and besides, so many centuries have passed, and the child was killed by hanging over the gorge in Furong "Sangufeng" . The reason for the king's execution was Satanism. But Evelyn heard that when the young missing princess who bore the name of Feng Sui ascended the throne, then the king who fell many centuries ago appeared. But in view of the usual vampire and not the devil, he was the "father" of the princess.

- Excuse me, but can I ask where you got this ring from? It's just that he is already so many years old .. probably .. - Evelyn asked awkwardly, tugging at his hands and fiddling with the hem of his shirt a little. Eric briefly looked at the ring and again looked at the papers. - Yes, so ... At one auction, I got the King Feng Xiaolong himself. Somewhere on the territory of the palace in Pandujou was found after the coup.

Evelyn bit her lips a little and decided to ask the question again - Why did you call me? - He asked . - Why did you run away in the morning?

Evelyn did not expect such a question and became nervous. He himself did not know why he ran away, he just took it and ran away for no reason at all.

Evilyn wanted to run away again, just not to answer embarrassing questions like this, questions to which he himself does not know the answer. - I don't know!- Evelyn called out and ran away.

He ran out into the street, hiding in some dark alley.

. . .

Eric was looking for the guy all over the place, he was passing by a corner and heard sobs, he went there and noticed Evelyn who was squatting and crying.

Eric sat down opposite Evelyn and asked - Why are you crying? - He asked, Evelyn didn't answer - Am I that intimidating? - Eric continued to ask, but the guy did not answer as before. - Let's go to your house, at home it will probably be easier to talk. - Eric suggested holding out Evelyn to help her up, Evelyn nodded and stood up.

. . . .

The man and the guy were at Evelyn's house. Eric liked the atmosphere and comfort in the house, although he was cramped. A man is accustomed to a spacious room with his height and complexion.

Eric sat on the couch while Evelyn made him coffee and tea for himself, after which he took out cookies and carried them into the living room along with coffee and tea.

- Excuse me, but I refuse cookies. I don't like sweets.. - Eric said Evilyn was embarrassed for his "tactlessness", he apologized to the man and put the cookies back. -It's okay, I'm just weird. - Eric said with a slight smile after drinking some coffee. Evelyn blushed slightly and began to drink tea with a slightly happy look.

- Why are you helping me? You are a vampire and I'm just a pathetic person.. - Evilyn asked, Eric grinned and replied - If I say that I am a humanist, will you believe me? But it's true, I don't go to people, but work with them, although they say that I shed rivers of blood, bathe in it and eat women's hearts. And to be honest, I'm really only capable of this with bad personalities. I wouldn't even blink if I killed someone like me. Here is my justice. - Eric spoke with a smile, Evilyn was surprised by such a speech - So I'm not bad in your opinion? - Exactly ! - Confirmed by Eric - If something bothers you, please contact me, I will help. - Eric said. Evelyn blushed and nodded.

- Are you like Robin Hood? - Asked Evelyn with a slight grin, Eric laughed - It is possible to say so.

Eric thought for a moment and said - I think I'll give you a vacation so you can rest properly. Are you 29? And they went to work on the recommendation of their father at 21 and worked without holidays, you deserve it. - Eric said, Evelyn was surprised - Do you have the right to let me go on vacation?

- Certainly! I’m the head of the central department, and it’s true that your staff will start vacation soon, so there are a lot of rights - The vampire smiled. Evelyn did not know how to thank the chief. The guy stood up and thanked him by bowing to the man.

. . .

After a while, the man left saying goodbye to Evelyn .

Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief and began to change because he didn't have to go to work anymore.
