Bab 159: I'd Like To Eat You

"Who's blood is that?" Lina asked. "Is it yours?"

"No."

Lina let out a sigh of relief. Only then did she finally take his hand. 

"I was worried about putting pressure on your body and that your wound wouldbleed more," Lina said after seeing his rigid expression.

Kaden's features softened. Only a bit. He wrapped his fingers around her hand, then pulled her out of the bed.

"It'd never be my blood," Kaden told her.

Unlike a normal Pure-Blood, the thought of drinking the warm liquid repulsed him. He hated warm drinks. It was why he relied solely on the suppressant pills that almost every vampire in the world took. Drinking blood was outlawed a long time ago. Those who were caught with it could be heavily punished. 

"Don't jinx yourself," Lina grumbled.

Kaden did not respond. But his lips did flicker. Only briefly. 

"Get ready," he told her. "We're going on a date."
