Chereads / Ex-Slayer / Chapter 8 - Crimson

Chapter 8 - Crimson

Lucas felt himself getting changed from inside.

Then, he remembered, 'Vampire venom?'

Lucas closed his eyes trying to stop the vampire venom from taking over him by using his powers but before he could do anything, he felt teeth sink into his neck.

His eyes snapped open. His crimson eyes looked to the side and saw Isabelle biting him on his neck.

Isabelle had hugged him and bit on his neck. She started drinking his blood.

Gulp!

Gulp!

Gulp!

Lucas first tried to stop her from doing this but soon he lost control. Lucas felt his throat go dry.

He was thirsty, really thirsty!

'Blood! Blood!' Lucas thought as he looked at the beautiful and white neck of Isabelle.

Lucas held Isabelle's shoulder and separated her from him.

Isabelle tried to continue drinking blood but Lucas was obviously stronger than her, so he easily separated herself from him.

Isabelle had tears in her eyes but Lucas wasn't in the right state to care about that.

His blood was boiling like it was placed in a volcano. His fangs grew as he brought his face near to her neck but he stopped in the middle of his way as he tried to regain control over his instincts.

His hands that were on the bed were clenched hard. Blood oozed from them but he wasn't in a state to feel or care about pain.

Lucas tried to control himself but Isabelle spoke with tears falling from her eyes, "Please don't leave me!"

Hearing this line, he remembered something from his distant past.

Years ago when was still a kid, he spoke, [Please don't leave me!] when he saw his mother's corpse.

This time, Lucas lost control of himself and bit her neck and started drinking blood. Isabelle also bit him and started drinking blood.

...

A man was sitting on a crimson throne with golden decorations on a lifted platform. His face was covered by darkness.

He had one leg over another while his fist supported his face. His elbow was on armrest.

As he was sitting there peacefully, someone suddenly burst in the room.

The man clenched his fists in anger and looked at the mongrel who didn't ask for his permission when he/she came in.

The man released his clenched fists when he saw that it was his assistant.

The assistant who looked to be young with long black hair and violet eyes kneeled when he arrive in front of the lifted throne.

"Rise, Neil!" The man ordered and his assistant complied by standing up.

"What's the hurry? This is not like you!" The man on the throne spoke with his deep voice.

"I am apologize for my unbecoming behavior but this is an urgent matter, Your Majesty!" Neil spoke as he looked at the man who was sitting on the throne.

"What is this urgent matter that made you behave like a commoner?" The man spoke with interest.

"Actually, Lucas Martinez married Isabelle Alucard!"

"Huh?" The man lost his composure.

"Lucas Martinez married Isabelle Alucard!" Neil spoke as he looked down.

He knew it was coming.

Suddenly, in the darkness which covered the man's face, two crimson eyes appeared.

The pressure in the room increased making Neil shiver.

"THE HELL?" The man shouted as his murderous aura erupted like a volcano making the whole castle tremble while all the glasses in the castle broke.

All present in the castle fell on the ground, including Neil. It was thanks to some magic installed in the castle that no one died as it was expected from the start that the man's murderous aura could kill everyone in the castle when released.
