CHAPTER 05: I promise I won't leave you

"That baby is beautiful; it is a pity that her father was not present

"I do not care about that; I just hope he is well and that we can meet again. Also, that my daughter was born made me remember the phrase "

"The moment a child is born; the mother is also born"

********************************

"If it happens again, I will not hesitate to kill you to save my people." Chief Tao spoke these words as coldly as possible for a trained skin warrior.

Jiang Xiaorou couldn't tremble in fear and take a few steps back, she was just an old woman; Although I have experienced that kind of hostile presence recently and throughout her life, she cannot get used to such a situation.

But life in this place is like that, the villagers live as best they can, rationing the little food they have to survive in this wild place full of dangers; Although soldiers are thugs who take advantage of their situation, they are still the people who protect their lives from possible bandits, wild beasts or other dangers, in addition to providing them with tools or other things to improve their quality of life.

If to continue living, just barely, but still live, they had to kill a troublemaker with whom they should not offend, they would take their knives and stab her until they were tired.

Tears of regret ran down her wrinkled cheeks, even though she is the only one who managed to live so many years in the town, it is already a miracle, she helped many women doing the work of midwife, taking care of children among other tasks. Because of this, she is loved by the villagers of the town, they helped her and took great care of her.

But it is a world where the strong are the law and the week are pawns, where seeing a tomorrow is an achievement, if to survive she must die, they will kill her without hesitation.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Chief Tao heaved a sigh of regret, calming his mind, he said a little kinder word.

“I'm sorry if I scare you, but you know that as a Chief I must do everything I can to keep my followers alive; do not worry about the others, nobody will bother you or harass you since I ordered them not to do it, due to your favors that you have done to the village, the majority agreed; go home to rest and don't forget what I told you "

Jiang Xiaorou nods her head and quickly retreats home.

When he arrived, she closed the door leaning on her and cried, cried so much that her upper garment was soaked, thinking that her life is nothing but mud, although she helped many people in her life, now they turn their back on him when problems arise, subconsciously he tries to justify them for their actions, he can't help crying out of bitterness.

Her crying was interrupted by some tender sounds that came from within the blankets of her bed, she quickly retired to see her incomparably beautiful and unique granddaughter, especially from her unforgettable eyes.

Jiang Xiaorou hugged her with all her might, wanting to show her love for the girl in her embrace. Even if everyone turned their back on her, she would still take care of the little girl.

"My good granddaughter, despite everything I promise you that I will never leave you, I will take care of you until the last day of my life"

Such a promise is with all my heart, it does not matter if everyone now hates her, the girl will be her consolation, I do not care about her appearance, her origin, or anything, for her she will always be her granddaughter loved.

As she hugged her, she felt small hands hugging her neck, as a sign of responding to her affection. This generated a great impulse to continue fighting to protect and care for her.

("As long as you're with me, I don't care about everything else")

And so, they were hugged for a long time

("Uhmm, if my grandmother continues like this, how sentimental she is, I think I will bother her a little, her neck is within reach, hee hee hee")

While her grandmother was distracted, Jiang Wushuang approached her neck, opened her small mouth, and bit her neck to begin feeding.

("AHHH, what a delight")

Jiang Xiaorou felt the bite on her neck, so he withdrew the girl and placed it in front of her.

"My granddaughter, why do you bite me all the time?" Thinking about it more carefully when an idea came to her head, although she denied it, she could not help asking "My granddaughter, do you feed on blood?"

Jiang Wushuang nods her head. ("Denying it won't help anything")

Seeing her nod, her mind went blank, but he quickly recovers. "I promised you that no matter who you are, I will take care of you, but I hope you do not harm me by your unusual diet"

Jiang Wushuang understood what he said by shaking her head quickly. ("It would never harm you, besides because of my tiny body I don't need to drink so much, just a couple of drinks is enough and I only need to drink every thirty days").

The feeding of an average adult vampire is about 500 to 1000ml of blood every 30 days, if he drinks too much nothing happens, but it does not help him at all. In addition, being in an infant body, its diet is about 10 to 15ml.

Seeing her deny so adorably, Jiang Xiaorou smiled, lifting and lowering her granddaughter while laughing, Jiang Wushuang was also laughing. The atmosphere was overflowing with happiness.

Chief Tao was walking home when he was called by Bai Ye.

"Chief, how was it with Granma Jiang?"

"Uff, I gave him a stern warning and I assure myself that it will not happen again, I hope that is true. How is the attitude of the people? "

" For now, there is relative tranquility, but Granma Jiang will no longer be viewed favorably for a long time."

"As long as it doesn't generate violence, it’s fine." Chief Tao gives a short sigh.

("I hope with all my heart that everything remains there and that Granma Jiang can be calm.") Chief Tao enters his house and Bai Ye walks around the village.

So, Jiang Xiaorou and her granddaughter Jiang Wushuang, residing in that little hut, lives were very calm and joyful, avoiding problems by obeying the chief's warning, but above all taking care not to see the little girl, as long as she is not seen, they could live in peace. A life of peace.

But the happiness only lasted 6 years.
