He smiled as he saw the look on Brent’s face and how happy the other was at his words, he put his hand on Brent’s and kissed his softly before resting his forehead against the others. “I love you too Brent. And I will never leave you either, well…..unless I am killed.” He said chuckling with the last few words.
As he bolted upright and coughed he was worried, he knew how easily humans could get sick and quickly that could lead to death. He got out of bed and got a glass of water for him before getting one of his guards to get the doctor. “Its okay….It might just be a cough.” He told him the look of worry still on his face.
Brent was terrified, and how can he not be? A cough was not just a cough, it was the start of a series of deaths that one who read up on plagues knew well enough about. This kingdom in Sweden was no exception to the deathly grips of the plague and as a human he knew death was impending. But maybe he was just overthinking it. Deep breaths, relax Brent. He gripped onto Axel tighter.
“Promise me, my prince. If you see that there is a day I am unable to live any longer, you will change me? Change me to your kind. I want to live forever and be with you. Never let there be a day where I die and you have to live on without me. I don’t want you to experience that.”
