my mind, he removed his hands away from my head.
     
    More than ever I wished to become human again, that was my goal, to stop being a vampire . I just didn’t know if it would be possible and what it would cost me...

One thing was certain. I was willing to pay some price to have that privilege.
    Becoming human and winning the presumed love of Eros.
    “I would exchange my immortality for your love!” I said, even more passionate.
    Eros said nothing. Just put his hands on my face, making a circular motion and I saw that as a manner of affection. The expression on his face seemed loving. He was grateful for the deep love I felt for him.
    Perhaps no one loved him in such a way as I loved him.
     
    He removed his hands from my face and went up into the air. Then he disappeared almost immediately.
    I stayed there for some time, memorizing all our conversation.

Chapter 22
     

So I put my feet into my father’s castle. I was approached by Valeska. She was standing in the main room. I came up to her humbly.
    “Where were you? I was looking for you!” she asked and smiled at me.
    “I went for a walk.”
     
    I hid the facts from her. I did not want anyone to know I was beyond the vicinity of the castle, disobeying my father’s orders.
    “Why were you looking for me?” I asked, looking at her face.
    “It's nothing important. I just wanted to have a chat...”
    “I also need to talk to you ,” I said.
    “What i s worrying you?” she asked.
    She put her hand on my shoulder excitedly.
    “Come to my bedroom....there no one can hear us.” she said lowly.

  Then she opened her bedroom door and put me inside. She came in and closed the door again. Her room was like mine, it had the same objects. We sat on her bed, facing each other.
    “I've been with Eros ,” I confessed to her.
    “How was it?” she asked, perplexed.
    “I asked him all I needed to know,” I answered and my voice was sorrowful.
    “And did you get answers?”
    “Yes!”
    My ‘yes’ sounded bitter.
    “Tell me everything!” she said enthusiastically.
    “He felt attracted to me when I was human.”
    “Did he declare that?”
    “Yes.”
    “What a pity it is not possible any longer!” Valaska exclaimed.

“ There must be some way, somehow I can undo this curse,” I supposed.
    “What do you want to do?” she asked.
     
    “I want to find a way of becoming human again...to quit being a vampire,” I said determined.
    “Are you even willing to go on with it?”
    “Yes, I am, and today more than ever. And you will help me,” I said, serious.
    “How?” her eyes became larger.
    “Don’t you know anything? Isn’t there some formula to reverse it?”
    “I know someone who might be able to help you with it,” she finished.
    “Who?” I asked.
    “He is a wizard who lives on top of the rocks.”

“How do I go to him?”
    “It is not easy!” she warned me. “He has ferocious dogs . They protect him night and day and they don't allow anyone to approach him.”
    “I am immortal and I have no fear!”
    “You run a risk of returning wounded and even disfigured, ” she stared at me sternly. “Or even without your head.”
    Valeska’s words didn't take away my thoughts of going to see the wizard. I was determined to pay some price to become human again, even if it would mean my flesh.
     
    That night Valeska gave me all the necessary coordinates for me to put my plan into practice. She told me everything she knew about that wizard, though she never saw him in the flesh, but she had heard about him, since his existence on the planet Neptune.

Chapter 23
     

I couldn’t sleep that night, waiting for the right time to leave my father’s castle and go toward the top of the rocks. Valeska and I had a secret.
    She swore not to tell anyone, not even to my father . If he missed me, she would find a way to invent some excuse to buy time until my return to the castle.
     
    Before I left the castle, the only person I had contact with was her.
