Dorian knew already that by the end of this night she would be his companion or a corpse. He had no plan to turn her yet but maybe just keep her alive awhile. He needed a princes' blessing before he could embrace. So, he needed to assure she was not going to kill herself before risking that. Despite feeling like his body was trying to destroy him for the sin he just committed he wanted to be there for her.

Despite the pain Dorian slipped out after a minute or two, snatching some flowers off other graves as he made his way over, kneeling beside Helena A hand placed on her shoulder as he looked at the tombstone. He never saw his families tombstone... "Hello Princess." He had jokingly called her that once and it just kind of stuck, he would play lowly servant to make her laugh whenever she was awake while he was around. She had been one of those rare lights. He tightened his grip on her shoulder. "I will keep your mother safe Christina, and when it is safe to return I will see to it that you are visited every year." Even if he killed her mother he would still come back.

Dorian stood silently looking down at the stone, just days ago the girl was so lively, and now she was dead. The least he could do was keep her mother safe.
