 you through the countries of Europe。;
   ;Oh�察�my love�察─�she whispered。 ;My great love。 If only I could be again the strong one whom you remember。;
   ;But you will be�察─�I insisted。 ;You are。 I shall take care of you�察�yes�察�just as you wish。 And you and Bianca and I´we shall all love one another。 Tomorrow night�察�we'll talk。 We'll make plans。 We'll speak of all the great cathedrals we must see�察�the windows of colored glass�察�we'll speak of the painters whose fine work we have yet to study。 We'll speak of the New World�察�of its forests and its rivers。 Pandora�察�we will speak of everything。;
   I went on and on。
   ;And you will e to love Bianca�察─�I said。 ;You will e to treasure her。 I know Bianca's heart and soul as ever I knew yours�察�I swear to you。 We will exist together in peace�察�believe me。 You have no idea of the happiness that awaits you。;
   ;Happiness�拭─�she asked。 She looked at me as though she hardly understood the words I had spoken。 Then she said��
   ;Marius�察�I leave this city tonight。 Nothing can stop it。;
   ;No�察�no�察�you can't say this to me� ─�I declared。 I grabbed her by the arms again。
   
   
   ;Don't hurt me�察�Marius。 I leave this city tonight。 I told you。 Marius�察�you've waited for one hundred years to see one thing�察�and one thing only´that I live。 Now leave me to the existence I've chosen。;
   ;I won't。 I won't have it。;
   ;Yes�察�you will�察─�she whispered。 ;Marius�察�don't you see what I'm trying to tell you。 I haven't the courage to leave Arjun。 I haven't the courage to see the Mother and the Father。 Marius�察�I don't have the courage to love you anymore。 The very sound of your angry voice frightens me。 I don't have the courage to meet your Bianca。 The very thought that you might love her more than me frightens me。 I am frightened of it all�察�don't you see�拭�And even now�察�I am desperate for Arjun that he may take me away from all of this。 With Arjun there is for me a great simplicity� �Marius�察�please let me go with your forgiveness。;
   ;I don't believe you�察─�I said。 ;I told you I will give up Bianca for you。 Good God�察�Pandora�察�what more can I do�拭�You can't be 
   leaving me。;
   I turned my back on her。 The expression on her face was too strange。 I couldn't endure it。
   And as I sat there in the darkness�察�I heard the door of the carriage open。 I heard her quick step on the stones�察�and she was gone from me。
   My Pandora�察�utterly gone from me。
   I don't know how long I waited。 It was not a full hour。
   I was too distressed�察�too perfectly miserable。 I didn't want to see her panion�察�and when I thought of banging on the doors of her house�察�I found it too utterly humiliating。
   And in truth�察�in pure truth�察�she had convinced me。 She wouldn't remain with me。
   I was about to tell my driver to take us home when a sound came to me。 It was of her howling and crying�察�and of objects within the house being broken。
   It was all I needed to push me into action。 I left the carriage and ran to her door。 I shot an evil glance at her mortal servants�察�which 
   rendered them virtually powerless�察�and threw open the doors for myself。
   I rushed up the marble steps。 I found her going madly along the walls�察�pounding the mirrors with her fists。 I found her shedding blood tears and shivering。 There was broken glass all around her。
   I took her wrists。 I took them tenderly。
   ;Stay with me�察─�I said。 ;Stay with me� �
   
   
   Quite suddenly behind me�察�I heard the presence of Arjun。 I heard his unhurried step and then he entered the room。
   She had collapsed against my chest。 She was shaking。
   ;Don't worry�察─�said Arjun in the same patient tone he had used with me in the Duke's palace。 ;We can talk of all these things in a courteous way。 I am not a wild creature�察�given to acts of destruction。;
   He seemed the perfect gentleman with his lace handkerchief and high´heeled shoes。 He looked about at the broken pieces of mirror which lay on the fine carpet�察�and he shook his head。
   ;Then leave me alone with her�察─�I said。
   ;Is this what you wish�察�Pandora�拭─�he asked。
   She nodded。 ;For a little while�察�my darling�察─�she said to him。
   As soon as he had left the room�察�and shut the tall double doors behind him�察�I stroked her hair�察�and I kissed her again。
   ;I can't leave him�察─�she confessed。
   ;And why not�拭 ─�I asked。
   ;Because I made him�察─�she answered。 ;He is my son�察�my spouse�察�and my guardian。;
   I was shocked。
   I had never supposed such a thing��
   In all these years I had thought him some dominating creature who kept her in his power。
   ;I made him so that he would take care of me�察─�she said。 ;I took him from India where I was worshiped as a very goddess by those few who had set eyes upon me。 I taught him European ways。 I placed him in charge of me so that in my weakness and despair�察�he would control me。 And it is his hunger for life which drives us both。 Without it I might have languished in some deep tomb for centuries。;
   ;Very well�察─�I said�察 �he is your child。 This I understand�察�but Pandora�察�
   you are mine� �What of this� �You are mine�察�and I have you in my possession again� �Oh�察�forgive me�察�forgive that I speak so harshly�察�that I use words such as possession。 What do I mean to say�拭�I mean to say I can't lose you� �
   ;I know what you mean�察─�she said�察 �but you see�察�I can't turn him away from me。 He has done far too well in what I have asked of him�察�and he loves me。 And he cannot live under your roof�察�Marius。 I know you only too well。 Where Marius lives�察�Marius rules。 You will never suffer a male such as Arjun to dwell with you on my account or for any other reason。;
   
   
   I was so deeply wounded that for one moment I couldn't answer her。 I shook my head as though to deny what she had said�察�but in truth I didn't know whether or not she was wrong。 I had always�察�always thought only of destroying Arjun。
   ;You can't deny it�察─�she said softly。 ;Arjun is too strong�察�too willful�察�and has been too long his own master。;
   ;There must be some way�察─�I pleaded。
   ;There will e a night�察�surely�察─�she said�察 �when it is time for Arjun to part from me。 The same may happen with you and your Bianca。 But this is not the time。 And so I beg you�察�let go of me�察�Marius�察�say farewell to me�察�and promise me that you will eternally persevere and I shall give you the same promise。;
   ;This is your vengeance�察�isn't it�拭─�I asked quietly。 ;You were my child and within two hundred years I left you。 And so you tell me now that you won't do the same to him´。;
   ;No�察�my beautiful Marius�察�it isn't vengeance�察�it is only the truth。 Now�察�leave me。; She smiled bitterly。 ;Oh�察�what a gift to me this night has been�察�that I have seen you alive�察�that I know the Roman blood drinker Santino was wrong。 This night will carry me through 
   centuries。;
   ;It will carry you away from me�察─�I said�察�nodding。
   But then her lips caught me by surprise。 It was she who kissed me ardently�察�and then I felt her tiny sharp teeth pierce my throat。
   I stood rigid�察�eyes closed�察�letting her drink�察�feeling the inevitable pull on my heart�察�my head suddenly full of visions of the dark forest through which she and her panion so often rode and I couldn't know whether these were her visions or mine。
   On and on she drank�察�as though she was starving�察�and deliberately I created for her the luscious garden of my most cherished dreams�察�and in it I envisioned the two of us together。 My body was nothing but desire for her。 Through every sinew I felt the pull of her drinking and I gave no resistance。 I was her victim。 I held to no caution。
   It seemed I was not standing any longer。 I must have fallen。 I didn't care。 Then I felt her hands on my arms�察�and I knew I was on my feet。
   She drew back�察�and with blurred eyes I saw her gazing at me。 All of her hair had spilled down on her shoulders。
   ;Such strong blood�察─�she whispered。 ;My Child of the Millennia。;
   It was the first time I had heard such a name for those of us who have lived so long and I was faintly charmed by it。
   
   
   I was groggy�察�so strong had she been�察�but what did it matter�拭�I would have given her anything。 I steadied myself。 I tried to clear my vision。
   She was far away across the room。
