Kapitel 30: Odd Kiss

What a series of devastating headbutting.

Waiting for the right time while having his functioning arm to hold the broken one, releasing an angry growl, Max narrowly dodged the head that was about to connect with his bloody one, and landed his fangs on the beast's hairy neck. The small holes at the ends of his two upper fangs simultaneously sipped blood and introduced a body weakening Vampire venom.

[You are using your Vampire Venom to weaken your enemy]

To stop Max from sucking the blood, the Mighty beast roared saliva and strongly landed its right knuckles on Max's chest. Doing the same thing again, a rip or so made a breaking sound. The beast added one more punch on the chest for the Wild Vampire to remove his fangs reluctantly and defeatingly, red blood going down his bare slightly muscular chest.

[To recover the venom you lost, your brain would shut down for a while]

Max fell on the floor, the beast pushing his body away. Still being a Wild Vampire, his dizzy eyes saw the person shifting to the human form — he saw a feminist shape.

Following every bit of her movements with his eyes until she walked over him, the woman cut using her claws the blood pipes connected to his back only by some extraordinary sucking force. Open ends of those pipes falling on the floor started sucking it like some deadly leeches.

Then, Max slowly blacked out.

★★★

It felt to Max like blinking the eyes. Opening his eyes, he didn't need to search, he found the woman bringing her face dangerously close to his own before she removed the mask on her face.

And it was Hazel again!

"See who can sleep very well, it's slavey himself." said Hazel. Dramatically widening her eyes, she whispered saying, "Are you done deciding?" and traced Max's jawline with the tip of her index finger.

Who wouldn't be scared of such proximity with a Wild Vampire if not a weird lunatic? And of course, Hazel.

"I'm helping you to get Evelyn back."

Max's pupils changed their shapes instantly. He looked at her with eyes that never seemed like the eyes of a Wild Vampire.

'...get Evelyn...'

"But you will also help me become something no one had ever seen before."

"What do ya words mean?"

[Congratulations! You are controlling yourself without the need of human blood but by using a new code called 'Evelyn']

[You have been rewarded 5 VC for introducing this unique technique for your own use only whenever you are a Wild Vampire]

[Total VC is now 30]

Without a response, inside the total darkness, Hazel caught Max's eyes with hers. She next silently moved so close to him, her hands beside his head, her shoulder length helix hair floating down, and her entire body above his own. Not saying a word, she caught the Vampire off guard by pressing her naturally red lips on his bloody ones.

That was un...

'WHAT ARE YOU DOING!'

Max attempted to depart his lips away but Hazel clutched his brown hair to hold him in place. Being distracted by what she was doing, Max lost rehearsing the code "Evelyn".

His eyes glowed and remained red.

[Warning: You are losing control over your human side]

[You need to hunt for human blood or use the code 'Evelyn' to regain your humanity]

Seeing the red eyes returning back, Hazel's instincts alarmed her to remove her lips and to spit away reminiscents of her own blood mixed with Max's saliva. Crawling to her left side, she turned over to examining Max, her gazing eyes questioning some unanswerable questions as she pushed herself away from him in reverse.

There was a brief silence.

"How do you... Hey... How are you feeling?" Hazel kept on reversing until her back was pressed with the cage's bars. She never kissed any man back then, and she thought why were lovers even doing this thing called kissing... it didn't taste romantic at all, it only tasted bloody as hell.

Grinning, Max wildly bared his drooling fangs in response, telling Hazel he was ready to attack her if not for his non-healing broken bones and if not for the distance between them.

Time passed but there was no change;

Time passed but he remained a Wild Vampire;

The princess shook her head sideways: This wasn't how it should be, or was she not yet capable of creating the Mate Bond with a different race? Or was it all nothing but myth? That the Crowned Princess Luna — and even the Imperial Alpha — could make mates with other races apart from the Werewolves?

"Something must be wrong." Hazel whispered. "Everything is wrong here." She seemed like the way her voice sounded disappointed and frozen in the flames of fury. Robotically unstringing the little blood pouch hanging around her neck, she threw it at the Vampire.

Well, that act looked like Armless giving Max the blood clotting enhancer on their way to the Royal Castle, and the women in Royalty Pack seemed to love hanging pouches around their necks.

[Health: -80/100]

[You have just consumed human blood!]

[Your Blood Lust is fully tamed!]

[You are no more a Wild Vampire]

[Warning: Your health is extremely, dangerously low]

Coming to his senses with some blood all over his mouth, Max clutched where his paining heart was supposed to be. He closed his eyes, breathing difficulty. On the other side, Hazel walked to his side wondering what was happening. Squatting, she examined him with confusion.

'What is in her kiss?'

"Why..." Max coughed and glared at the princess. "...the kiss!" The vessels around his head bulge in pulses, his breathing became more difficult, his broken bones testing his limits of pain endurance.

Hazel smiled triumphantly.

Some cages away from Max's cage, "Start checking this side first." a Royal Force commanded, his eyes searching for the trespasser who earlier knocked a deadly kick on his colleague and inserted him in a hole. "And we will check this side."

Hearing the Royal Forces running about searching for her, Hazel returned her black mask with a witty smile etched on her naturally dark red lips. "Hey Maxey! it isn't like you aren't dying to kiss a beautiful girl's red lips again!"She winked at Max, which he missed to see, and left him alone for plan B.

Max looked at the place he last saw her with bafflement. 'This woman... She is something else.'

Not every girl teases him when he sounds serious, and when he is imprisoned! Sitting down on the cold floor silently for some time, then came the sound of a body hitting a metal cage very hard...

And a frightened Royal Force's voice:

"Stop this person! You! Stop it! Don't you dare free these Vampires! They're gonna eat us alive!"

Max was carefully listening.

The voice of a girl came laughing craziness before:

rrRRROooOAAARrr!

Followed by:

ROAAAAARRRR!!
