THE VAMPIRE; Nark De Melchias

I. Bloody encounter with the vampire king

𝐊𝐞𝐤𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐄𝐫𝐞𝐛𝐮𝐬, 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐡.

Not only in the Imperial Palace, the entire territory of the Erebus Empire had been filled with the blood of its people. The street of the festival this morning, now it's like a street of blood. "I didn't think you guys were so vile." Ethel sneers.

Nark silently smiled obliquely looking at the girl who was quite alluring to his heart. He was slightly attracted by this human girl from her blue bead. "Hey, man. There is nothing in this world that is purely benevolent." Aedion de Constantine.

The man lifted William's body that was sleeping softly like a brother to his sister.

And that left Ethel a little surprised. Are vampires not all evil? Her thought.

"The vampire is evil and cunning, Dion is so good at carrying the boy because the boy is his, his blood slave, his food source." The Vampire King.

"What?" Ethel mutters.

The title Vampire King, reading the minds of others. It was one of his strengths that made him always win against his enemy. "Devil and Vampire are different people, study again."

𝐄𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐮𝐦, 𝐈𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐊𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐣𝐚𝐚𝐧.

This is where his fate will be like cattle. He and his brother, William. It will be a source of food for the Vampires, their source of energy when they suck their blood.

The palace was large and desolate, surrounded by huge and sinister trees. "You...are you going to take my brother William?"

Dion silent.

The man, who was up to 185, looked down at the little girl in his eyes.

True what Nark said, this girl's sea-blue bead is very beautiful. "Yes, Your Highness Nark ordered me to take him."

"Are you going to treat my brother like a slave to your blood?"

Silence fades.

Dion is a very passive person, according to Ethel. He's not easy to talk to. "No. I'm not like other vampires, I suck animal blood, not human."

A calm feeling enveloped Ethel's heart, he smiled broadly at the man subconsciously.

Hugged him tightly to the point that Dion was jolted in shock.

"Thank God, at least you didn't end up like a human who became a blood slave." Tears were dripping down his sister's face.

Speaking of feelings, Vampires are not heartless people. "Aedion de Constantine, you can call me Dion or Constantine."

Behind the large door in front of the Palace stood a man in white with both hands in his pants pocket.

"Constantine, you don't seem to be busy at all." Nark came out of hiding.

Seeing the girl holding Dion, made a feeling of dislike appear in his heart.

The man named Dion bent his body. "I'm resigning, Your Majesty."

In the cold weather, Nark pulls Ethel's arm into the Palace which already looks not well taken care of.

Along the corridor, the floor covered the red carpet. None of the ministries have been seen so far by Ethel's blue eyes.

"Clean yourself" Nark said.

Not as bad as it looks like the exterior of the Palace, the bedroom is quite nice. "After cleaning up, can I make a request for you?"

Nark silently stared at the blue bead that he thought was beautiful. "certain."

✤

"Can't." A resolute tone silenced the atmosphere of Ethel's bedroom.

The man sitting at the dresser stared intently at the girl who was styling her hair so as not to be damaged.

"Why? He's my brother,"

The scent of blood shot out from his body, he undid his entire clothes and lowered his body to be exposed to water.

It all felt so good that the girl closed her eyes.

"Hey, man! Why so long?" The knock on the door woke up the girl who was cleaning herself.

Her body began to cool, the girl stood up suddenly. "B-well, I'm out!"

His hand quickly grabbed the neatly folded bath towel on the antique shelf.

"You've been running around in there? Why sweat?"

"Yes.your voice surprised me, hahaha..."

The man folded his hands, and sat down on the edge of the bed. "So, what's your request?"

The girl gulped down her saliva, feeling nervous to speak with the flaming gaze of the Vampire King.

"What..why can't my sister stay with me?"

𝐊𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐚𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐢...

Grain of sweat flowed from the forehead and fell wet the bath towel.

The air did not enter his lungs, his neck was firmly gripped by Nark.

"Who do you think you are, dare to rule me?"

The veils started to bulge, his face started to turn blue with the beads of eyes that had already started to whiten.

"Currently, if it wasn't for your blood. There's no way I'm gonna let you and your sister live."

His grip was loosened, the noble girl's body fell down and scooped up a lot of air greedily.

"Stand up!"

Not obeyed. Nark immediately pulled Ethel's arm until the girl's limp hit her chest.

The bath towel collar he removed to reveal Ethel's smooth neck without injury.

The two fangs began to pierce with excruciating pain. "Ah, here..sick!"

Ethel kept trying to rebel for the bite to come off, a lot of blood flowing down staining the red carpet in his bedroom.

Nark's red eyes were wide open, the bite was unleashed with Ethel's blood imprinted around his mouth.

"Damn, what is this taste.." murmured Nark.

His tongue cleansed Ethel's blood around his mouth until it was left. "It feels so opiate."

The face of the Vampire King reddened as if he had gained a pleasure, a wide smile he carved to look like a psychopath.

"You," Nark rested on both knees to reach Ethel's shoulders.

Those red eyes are burning. "Be my wife, Ethel de Galiadne!"

"Huh?" The girl held onto the bite wound created by Nark.

His blood did not stop, causing Ethel to lose consciousness.

Ethel heard nothing more after the word that seemed to make him as the Vampire King's life companion.

"As he said. Human blood is delicious."

Seriate..
