The next morning Jean and Shae had to leave early to get ready to depart. This left Fate alone by herself. She sat on the couch wearing a white hooded sweatshirt that was way too big for her and a pair of blue pajama-style short shorts. She stretched her pale white legs out and wiggled her toes as she tried to figure out how to speak to Aiden. She was so lost in thought that she did not even notice the handsome young man walking up behind her.
Aiden slowly walked up and stood behind her and watched her as she wiggled her toes around. He thought her small feet were very cute. He leaned down and hugged Fate from behind and kissed her cheek. "Good morning, my little bloodsucker."
"You! Who is yours!?" Fate tried to struggle out of Aiden's arms, but she really didn't put up too much of a fight. After a few effortless tries, she just leaned back and looked up at the handsome face which was now looking down at her.
"I can't kiss you anymore." Fate suddenly said.
Aiden frowned slightly, but it was only for a second. "Why is that?"
"I..." Fate began to blush. She hated this man. She wondered why she had to say such embarrassing things to him! She took a deep breath and started to explain. "I can't control myself well… There is a thing about vampires… Wait before I go further, sit down. My neck is cramping."
Aiden did as she asked and hopped over the couch and sat next to her. Fate rubbed her neck, then leaned her head against his shoulder and played with her fingers as she continued. "All vampires have what is called a soulmate. They are someone of the opposite sex that makes them… Makes them want to have sex with that person… "
Fate's ears were burning up, but she finally said what needed to be said. Aiden was quite startled to hear this but happy at the same time. He put his arm around Fate's shoulder and rested his head on top of her's. Fate was still embarrassed by what she had just said and did not dare look at him. She kept her head down and continued to pick at her fingers. "Then the answer is simple. You may not be able to control yourself but I can. So there is no reason to stay away from me or not kiss me. I just have to be the one to make sure you do not do anything you are not ready for."
Fate looked up at Aiden and raised an eyebrow. "Are you saying that you can control that thing between your legs and not touch me for two years?"
"If that is what it takes for me to be with you, then yes, I can. Although I will need you to not drink my blood directly." Aiden said seriously. He could control himself only if he was not under the influence of the feeling he gets when Fate drinks his blood.
"Mmm… But I may need you to fill some vials for me. If you do not mind, that is." Fate smiled faintly. She felt more relaxed now. She finally understood why she couldn't resist this man. And since he was not someone who would use her inability to control her emotions to take advantage of her, she felt much more relaxed with him.
"That's fine. You forget my specialty is healing. Although I can use other abilities as well, Healing is still my strongest point. I will make a thermos for you to take to class, just in case you need it. Go bathe and get ready for class." Aiden did not want her to see him cutting himself to fill the thermos up in case it set her off. From now on, he had to be careful not to overstep his bounds too much.
"Then I will go wash up. But before that..." Fate bit her lower lip and raised her head, kissing Aiden's lips.
Aiden only let her kiss him for a few seconds before pushing her back. "Go wash, or we will be late."
"Mmm..." Fate blushed and got up from the couch, and ran to her room to get clothes. She did not take a hot shower. She took a cold shower as she tried to keep herself from being too muddle-headed. 'Did I become some kind of lustful vampire? Is my race wrong? Maybe it was inputted wrong, and I am really a succubus..'
Fate was able to make it through the two days Jean was gone without overstepping her bounds. Kacey and Ella both came over with her things so she would have clothes and a supply of blood during that time. Kacey still went to work every day making sure to keep the money coming in while Fate got ready to head to a portal planet.
"Do you have everything?" Jean put her bag down and looked at the bag Fate was carrying. She was worried Fate did not bring enough. The two were currently standing in front of a three Skull planet called Tridora. The colony on this world was no bigger than the one on Grolam. It had many monsters from level five to level twenty. The planet had so many that the military could only establish a small colony there, despite the planet being fully explored.
"Mmm… Are we allowed to go by ourselves?" Fate asked as she noticed they did not have anyone following them.
"Yeah, it is a perk of being an Elite. Why, do you have something up your sleeve?" Jean asked. She could see Fate seemed to be thinking something.
Fate smiled and whispered into Jean's ear: "We will need to wait and see, but if I did my research right, we might be able to do something with this planet..."
Jean's eyes grew wide with excitement. "If you need extra people, let me know. My family actually has a residence in the colony. That is where we will be staying. There are many level 30s there guarding the place so we can make use of them."
"This is good to know. We will try to work out a plan after the first day. We do not need to do it right away. We still have plenty of time."
