You Will Only Be Mine-Chapter 327: Drinks

"Akira? Are you okay? Hey, wake up," I heard a familiar voice moving me from side to side. My body was exhausted from dealing with all the critters that tried to break in.

Every bone in my body was crushed into pieces and after each iteration, my healing was somehow about to keep up with the damage caused to my body. Every time I was moved even the slightest, a surge of sharp pain would travel through all of my body. I slowly opened my eyes to look at the person calling out to me only to notice that it was Ai-sama. Oh no, I am in such an unpresentable form, I must get up immediately.

"Ugh…" even the slightest moment made my body scream in pain.

"Hey, don’t move, you are too injured." You were the one who was shaking me before though. "What do I do?"

I looked at her frantically looking around to find a way to help me. There is no need for it, I am merely just a servant. My healing capabilities are not that fast but nothing to be laughed about. These injuries only require some minutes to heal. There is no need to panic. I wanted to say it to her but even trying to speak was too much of a pain. I am an insult to servants. Putting my masters in worry because of me. Unacceptable.

"Cough, cough." I coughed out some blood and a sharp pain hit my chest. Looks like even my lungs were crushed by this, it is a miracle I am even alive now.

"Here, drink this," Ai-sama said grabbing a vail of red liquid. Looks like there was still one left. She opened the vail and the sweet scent filled the room. She brought the vail closer to my mouth but I moved away. "Don’t do that, it will help you heal quickly."

I know that, but there is no way I can drink that. The vail was meant for Ai-sama moreover…that contained Kazuki-sama’s blood. I must stay as far as I can from it. The last time he made me drink it, I was almost ready to drink every last drop. I don’t know what would happen this time to me given my condition.

"N-ngh…n-no…" I somehow got a word out of me as my body started to heal more. Just a little more time, and I will be fine.

"Stop resisting and drink," she said holding my head in place and shoving the vail to my mouth but I kept it closed. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to resist longer as she forced my mouth open making me scream in pain, and stuck the vail in my mouth letting the content pour down my throat.

The moment the blood touched my tongue I stopped resisting; I could feel the warmth spreading in my body. It felt nice, but I wanted more. Though causing me great pain, I grabbed the vail myself and poured all of it in my mouth. Ahhh…this is it, that warm feeling I needed but along with it something predatory overcame me and I started licking the inside of the vail with my tongue making sure nothing was left in it. I wanted more, a little more, just one more vail. I want this blood, I need it.

My body started to heal way faster than it was before and within a few seconds, all of my bones were back in their place. My blood vessels have taken their original shape, my organs have also been placed in their respective positions and my body was no longer in pain. Blood, blood, blood, Kazuki-sama’s blood. I want more of it.

"Akira," I heard someone call me and I looked at her realizing the person in front of me was not supposed to see this side of me. I quickly stood up to get back to my presentable self but my feet stumbled making me fall down to my knees. "Hey take it slow, it’s fine."

"I’m sorry Ai-sama, b- "

Before I could finish my sentence, a terrible feeling of dread filled the room. I froze in my place and got so scared that even moving an inch felt like a death sentence to me. I know this feeling too well, in my entire life there is only one person who was able to make me feel like this. This terrible sense of fear, the perpetrator.

Father.

I looked at Ai-sama seeing her frozen in her place too but her body was trembling. It was as if fear completely took over her but her face was filled with expressions of being horrified and angry. Wait, if I feel him like this, that means.

"Kazuki-sama…" I muttered his name terrified of the realization that hit me. "Ai-sama, forget about me, please make your way to where this is coming from. Kazuki-sama is with Father right now!"

Not saying another word, as if Kazuki-sama’s name snapped something in her brain, she rushed out of the room quickly. I sat back on my feet and took a deep breath. I wanted to move, but I couldn’t do anything. This feeling, I was never able to overcome it. I remember the first time I felt this when I first met him. He stood there with a kind smile but the aura exuding from him was anything but kindness, those murderous intentions were enough to make the entire rebel force quiver in their places.

I took another deep breath and focused on scanning out the entire place. Closing my eyes, I focused on feeling the air around me and conducting my senses through it. This place is really big and some of its rooms have already started to move around. Living here sounds like a real pain.

Some critters nest, a quarter of some nobles, novices standing guard on the other end, the other hunters fighting with the critters. Given how much time has elapsed seeing that they are still able to keep up with it is impressive. I can feel Kazuki-sama, Ai-sama, and Father in the same room now but I was able to find Yuna-sama though.

"KAZU-KUN!!" I heard a loud shriek coming from the direction where Ai-sama went. Wait, what is going on?

I stood up to head to that place but then another voice was heard out of nowhere. "A…I…."

It’s Kazu-sama, wait this is not coming from the same room. He is calling out of Ai-sama, this is not good.

"A…khi…rha…"

My eyes widened and like it was second nature I teleported to the place where I was called from. Standing there I was completely horrified with the state I found him in. Many critters have swarmed him and have been feasting on him like anything. The smell of his blood was so strong that I also started to get drawn to it but that was not the moment for that. I need to get him out. I saw what looked like his hand, I quickly grabbed it and pulled it out.

"Wha- "

What I found was just an arm but nobody attached to it. I quickly raised my hand pulling the air around me and making a javelin out of it and used it to throw all the critters off from him. What was left was just a torso with his head attached to it. I quickly rushed closer to him and teleported to the safest place I knew.

"Kazuki-sama, hang in there," I said making sure he didn’t close his eyes, the moment he started to give in was when I was sure he was going to die. "No, no, no, don’t close your eyes!"

I started panicking, I tried everything I could, I shook him, slit my wrist, and started pouring my blood. It was only able to somewhat stop the bleeding but I doubt my blood will be able to grow his arms back. What do I do?

His neck had a big hole in it too. I am surprised he is still alive but I can’t let him die. As a servant, I have to make sure my master is safe. I poured some blood on his throat too which closed the wound. This much is not enough, I need more blood…

I looked back at his face and his eyes looked half dead, his mouth was moving though, as if he was trying to say something. I brought my ear close to his mouth to hear properly. "Yes, Kazuki-sama? What do you need?"

"B-B- "

"B?"

I leaned closer but before I knew it, I felt a sharp pain in my neck and I looked to see what it was only to find Kazuki-sama with his teeth…no…those are fangs…

Is he a vampire now?

He started drinking my blood and I grit my teeth holding back to shout in pain. Vampires normally use an aphrodisiac to numb the pain but Kazuki-sama is doing no such thing, he is drinking it like an animal. I didn’t move though. I don’t know what is happening to him but now that I look at his body, it was regenerating drinking from me.

GROWL

"That sound…Kazuki-sama…" I said and he stopped to look at me and a sense of fear overcame my body. He wasn’t looking at me like I was Akira, his servant but a prey he was feeding on. His limbs grew back to their original shape and he pushed me down. I tried to get out of it but he had suddenly gotten this unnatural strength. I looked at him and he was breathing heavily looking at me like a crazed beast. "K-Kazuki-sama…"

The master who treated me like my first master ever with his kindness and easy-going nature was now looking at me as if I was nothing but just a bag of blood. Before I could say anything, he dug his teeth in my neck again and started drinking from it, I started getting a little dizzy but I didn’t move anymore. I am a servant; my life is dedicated to my master.

If I have to die to save him, my life is his to take. My vision started getting blurry and I raised my arm and rested it on his back. The pain was getting too much to handle, he was not just drinking from my blood vessels but was also eating my flesh. If this is how I have to go, at least let me feel the warmth from my master.

"I’m sorry Kazuki-sama, but let me be selfish this once," I said and closed my eyes. I have lived a long life, ever since the Edo period. I was the daughter of the head of the branch family of a famous samurai clan. I was raised to be nothing but a servant to the successor of the clan. He was a proud man. His strength was unmatched by anyone in the clan and his praises were sung by many. At the age of fifteen, he was already leading the clan to victory in many battles.

I admired him, wanting to be prideful and strong like him, even though I was a servant of his, I harbored certain feelings towards him that I was not allowed to. But, everything came crashing down when we were attacked. It was just one man, a certain man who came from a foreign land. He single-handedly took down the clan’s forces.

"Hide inside Akira," I was commanded by my master as he grabbed his katana and walked out to fight the intruder. I was so taken by the fear that I didn’t think of anything and followed his order. Still scared for his safety, I peeked at the hole and my eyes widened as I saw him drop dead right before me. His head fallen off from his shoulders.

The door of my room was forced open and the intruder stood right before me. I saw a monster that day, the monster who made me one of his kind. Why did he do that? I have no idea but he made me do many horrible things under his command, even…devour the body of my master…

Ah no…why am I remembering him now? The memories of standing next to him as he looked out at the garden. He always complimented and showed gratitude for every single thing a servant was supposed to do for him. Even I woke up in his lap once because I collapsed due to overwork, that was the first time there was a little bit of moisture in his eyes.

"You fool," he said tending to me. "Don’t forget about your own well-being again, or next time you’ll be punished."

His scolding was filled with harshness and worry, but over anything else, his kindness to even care about a simple servant such as me.

"…ra…ki…" I think I hear him again. Maybe I can finally meet you again, my master. "Ak…"

"Akira."

My eyes opened and I found myself lying on the warm lap of my master, his eyes looking down at me filled with tears. His face was full of worry and his hands trembling but still tending to me. I felt something sweet in my mouth to see he cut his own wrist to feed me.

"Oh my god, you are awake," he said worryingly. "I’m so sorry for that, I didn’t come back to my senses sooner and you were almost on the verge of passing away. I just…"

My master is reckless.

But that is his strength.

"Anyways, are you okay now? Is this much blood enough? Do you need more?"

My master is not aware of his own limits.

But that is his strength.

"Please, say something. I am getting worried here."

My master is kind and worries about me.

But that is his strength.

"No, I am okay now Kazuki-sama," I said, my face curling on its own feeling the warm feeling of knowing he cares about me so much.

My master may remind me of my first master.

But my admiration for him will surpass even my first master.

"You are really reckless Kazuki-sama, you shouldn’t just feed me your blood like this. I have warned you against it," I scolded him a little. "But…thank you, for doing that for me."

"Of course, I will do that for you," he said, his wound not healed.

I smiled yet again. "Of course you would, that is just how you are."
