"What?!" I shouted at the top of my lungs and got up taking a seat on the bed. I felt something cold falling right into my laps and I looked around to see both Ai and Akira standing right beside the bed. Both look worried sick. "Where am I?"

"You were starting to scream and hold your head so we got really worried and got you home," Ai explained and held my hand tightly. I could see tears in her eyes from this close. They looked like tiny pearls on her skin and the urge to make those pearls disappear overtook me. I raised my hand to wipe them off but she dug her face in my chest. "I was scared Kazu-kun. I was so scared."

Her voice broke while she was saying that and I placed my hand on her back rubbing it. Soon, small tears turned into cries and the only thing I could hear with her voice were the sobs that echoed in the room. I hugged her tighter feeling something squeezing my heart uncomfortably. The girl doesn’t even know how she controls my emotions along with her.

If she is happy, I’m happy.

If she is having fun, I’ll be having the time of my life.

If she is sad, my heart will ache.

If she is crying, I get too protective.

If she is angry, I’ll stay cool and calm her down.

Little things like these that I realized all just add up to how much I have let this girl enter my life and turn it upside down I’ve started to see things differently. Have learned many lessons and it’s all thanks to her. She may not have done a lot by herse- well she has but the fact of just her being there and acting the way she does is more than enough for these changes in me to happen.

And that girl is crying, in my chest. Because she was worried about me.

"Everything is okay now Ai," I said gently patting her head and reassuring her. "I’m not in any danger, nor have anything happened to me. I’m fine."

"T-then…" she started speaking in a broken voice between the cries. Just seeing that ached my heart. "W-why did you f-f-faint…?"

"Ai…"

Not being able to bear the view. I hid her face in my chest and lay down having her be on top of me. She wrapped her hands around my body and I kept her head on my chest. I took some deep breaths calming me down from doing anything rash right now. I need to calm myself down too.

Even though I got told I’ll become a vampire soon…

"It was just that I was a bit dizzy and tired from everything that happened today," I started speaking in a light mood. "I mean, we had an entire date day, walked a lot. Have you jumped on me in the locker room twice a day? See you in very alluring clothing and then have a little brawl with Dominic. Not to mention it’s the day you saw me bawl my eyes out in Natsumi-san’s chest and I tried remembering things I had locked into a corner of my memories. Give me a brake now, will you?"

"Mmhh…"

"So, the point being Ai, I just got too overwhelmed today with a lot of things. I’m still a human after all and I can only do so much you know," I said and kissed her head. "But no need to worry about me now. I’m fine and not going anywhere."

"Okay…" she said and looked at me. Her eyes did not have any more tears but they were red due to them. She moved up and placed her head on my neck and I knew what was going to come.

She bit my neck.

I felt her two teeth piercing through my skin but this time, it felt a little different. Though she dug them the same way she used to, I felt something different. It hurts a little this time. Isn’t the aphrodisiac she talked about stopped its effect?

It wasn’t a pain I could not handle since I have dealt with things far worse but it’s strange that it is like this.

Could it be because…

"Hmmm? It’s weird," Ai muttered and I looked at her. She looked up and smiled. "Hehe, looks like the power of love is prevailing."

"What do you mean?" I tilted my head in confusion.

"Kazu-kun’s blood tastes even better now," Ai said and I let out a sigh of relief. I expected her to say something along the lines of it being bitter or something like that. She did mention that the tastes of other vampires are disgusting to vampires and even half-vampires so I didn’t expect her to like it.

She pulled out her teeth from my neck and bit her lips to pour some blood on the holes to close them. Soon the mark was gone as if it wasn’t even there anymore, to begin with.

Recently, Ai has gotten thirstier for blood for some reason and I can’t really pinpoint why would that be the case. This only happened after the battle at the VEO and normally, Ai would have been healed already by the next time she drank my blood but she seems to want it more and more. It feels like no matter how much she drinks now; she is not satisfied. It feels like she is holding herself back honestly from draining all the blood in my body.

Is she drinking more blood to get stronger?

That can be the case though.

But I decided to not further speak about the topic. Why? Well, if it was not for the cute little creature who instantly fell asleep on top of me after drinking my blood. I would love to have a nice long chat.

"Ugh," I held my head as it got a bit dizzy.

Maybe not right now.

I looked over at Akira and she stood there waiting for me to say something to her. "You’re done for the day Akira. We both will be going to go sleep now so you should go and rest too."

"My apologies Kazuki-sama, but I would rather like to stay at your place all night, overlooking it closely," she said wording out her concerns. "Both you and Ai-sama look exhausted because of today’s ordeals so it would be best if you two were to rest tonight and I’ll make sure the both of you are safe. I’ve worked with Father for about thirty years myself so I do know him best and his tactics when it comes to hunting his targets. He may be readying vampires right now to attack us as we are speaking."

Hearing her rebuttal, I held my chin while thinking and nodded in agreement. Yes, we don’t know a lot about our enemy, to begin with. The only person who does is Akira so letting her handle this situation tonight would be the best thing to do. I looked up at her and nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, Kazuki-sama, for accepting my suggestion," she said while bowing down.

"Ah, no need to thank me for it now, come on," I said and gently placed Ai on the side of the bed and she grabbed me instantly. I looked down at her and she was sound asleep. Yes, she did fight with Father herself so she must be tired. By the look of worry on her face the entire time, I could tell just how hard of a time she had while battling him and protecting me.

"Akira," I called out the noble’s name. "Can you tell me what you know about this Father guy? Since we are going to face him. Having as much information about him is the best."

"But Kazuki-sama, I can tell this to your tomorrow. You need to have rest tonight. Moreover, you have high school to attend tomorrow," she said and I looked at the clock.

"Fifteen minutes," I said. "It’s quarter to eleven right now, wow, I really did faint for too long. Anyways, I’ll sleep at eleven so I can wake up at six. You have fifteen minutes to tell me everything you know about him."

"As you say Kazuki-sama," she said and took a deep breath. "His name is Dominic Amadeus, as his name goes. He was a catholic priest back when he was still human. How did he turn into a human is not something I know about though but he is well over seven hundred years old. Maybe even about nine hundred. His actual age was never disclosed by anyone."

"I see," I said and sat up straight with Ai still holding onto my waist for dear life.

"Marshmallows," she mumbled and started nibbling on my waist. I placed my hand on her head and she started happily snuggling against me like a cute little puppy happy.

God, she is adorable.

Ahem, back to the main topics.

"How did you get to know him?" I asked her.

"For me, it was more about my master at that time serving under Father. He had this charisma that would let anyone be influenced by him easily. He was very good with his words and could persuade almost anyone with those words alone. I had seen him turning enemies into servants myself. Sometimes by pure violence though since even vampires amongst themselves are not always happy."

"So much like humans, they also have their own brawls," I said and held my chin.

That is why he is able to have so many vampires serving under him. Not only does he have terrifying strength. He also has his way with words. Moreover, he is very intelligent on where and how to use his strengths to his advantage. Sure, he could have just kidnapped me and Ai then and there with his powers but he didn’t.

He’s toying with us like we are mere ants in front of him.

He knows he has the means to get what he wants and that’s what makes him even more terrifying of an opponent to face. We don’t know when he would take action or how he would go about it. All we can do is just stay on our guard the entire time. One mistake can be the cause of our heads falling off our shoulders.

"And his abilities, you said there were many," I asked while raising my eyebrows. "Can you elaborate on that point?"

She nodded and began, "I had been on six missions where Father was present himself to overlook and sometimes even be physically involved in. In every one of those missions, I had seen him have a different ability. Fire fists, control over gravity, being able to turn anything into metal, and many more. He would probably be having even more abilities but it is strange though, a noble is not supposed to have more than one ability."

We pondered a little over the idea. Thinking over it took a lot of time and just as we saw, the clock struck eleven.

"Ahh, seems like it’s time for me to sleep," I said and Akira nod her head.

"Well then Kazuki-sama, have a nice sleep," Akira said and started walking away.

"Have a nice sleep too Akira," I said and she stopped in her path and turned around and I saw a little smile on her face. "I’ll not sleep the entire night Kazuki-sama," she said with a little giggle.

That was the first time I saw that spectacle.

And it just made me smile.
