Hi Everyone!

Here is the new chapter. Enjoy!

Blaine didn't realize how tired he was until he got home, had a long, hot bath and fed. When he was done with all of that, he felt like he could collapse in any second. He wanted nothing but a few hours, or better a few days of sleep, resting without being disturbed and dreaming about the sexy vampire hunter he couldn't get out of his head. He honestly didn't know what he was doing. He knew Kurt Hummel's secret, he also knew that he could use his power for his own purposes. He could have killed the man in the woods and now he would have been the most powerful creature of the world. But as he had looked into those huge, scared eyes, he had known that he would never be able to hurt Kurt Hummel. They were connected, a way Blaine couldn't explain, and he knew that he would protect the hunter no matter what. Yeah, Kurt was important for him. He wanted to keep him close, make sure that nothing happened to him… It was weird. He had never felt like this before. What that hunter had done to him, he had no idea. But one thing was sure, Kurt made him feel alive, a way like noone else could. He couldn't wait to see him again the next day.

"Blaine, are you ready?"

Blaine groaned, rubbing his tired eyes. Of course he wasn't allowed to have a few hours for himself. He was the king after all, he always had work to do.

"I'm coming" he sighed and after checking his reflexion in the mirror, he stepped out of his room.

"It was about time" Jeff said impatiently. "We have so much to discuss."

Blaine sighed heavily. Of course, Jeff surely wanted to inform him about the time he had missed while being away with Kurt. When he just wanted to dream about his hunter...

"Alright" he forced himself to say. "Let's get over with this."

He his surprise, they weren't alone in the meeting room. Wes, David and Nick were already waiting for them in there and Blaine could feel how upset they were. Something must have happened while they were away.

"What's wrong?" he asked as he took his seat. "Where is Thad?"

"Dead" Wes replied.

"What?" Blaine gasped.

"As I already told you, we have some serious things to discuss" Jeff said. "Sit down. It will be long."

Blaine opened his mouth to remind Jeff who was in charge but he decided not to. He needed the details. As he expected, his friends started to share the smallest details of what had happened while he had been gone, things Blaine didn't even believe at first. It was so hard. Thad was his friend, he had trusted him… How could he betray Blaine like this? And then he had died… Even if Blaine was angry for what he had done to him, Thad had been important for him, just like the others. He had lost a good friend. And he wanted to make his murderer pay.

"And the hunters are trying to make it seem like we caused his death" Jeff said angrily. "Can you believe that? I'm pretty sure it was one of them…"

"Is it possible?" Blaine asked as he turned to Nick who knew the most about vampire hunters.

"No" Nick said quietly. "Hunters are powerful but not that powerful. They couldn't do it."

"It was surely an air hunter" Jeff said, still blaming the hunters.

"Air hunters are not able to move things like that" Nick pointed out. "It doesn't work like that monster Mr Hummel created. They can manipulate the weather but moving small things like that stake and so precisely… No. It couldn't be them."

"There was no wind in that room either" David said. "We would have felt something if it had been an air hunter but there was no such a thing."

"So it was someone else" Blaine nodded.

All of his friends looked at him in interest and fear.

"What?" Blaine frowned.

"They think that it was you" Jeff said.

"Excuse me?" Blaine asked with wide eyes. Sure, he had some powers but he was nowhere as strong as his father had been. He had never learnt how to use his power for bad purposes and he would never kill someone like that. Not to mention that he had been in another universe when Thad had died. He was definitely not powerful enough for that.

"Look, we know you would never…"

"Of course not!" Blaine almost shouted. "What insane idea is that? I was almost killed. I was captured by demons and held in a cage because they were paid to bring me to… somewhere. I spent days in those horrible universes without blood or sleep. Do you think I would do that to myself?"

"It doesn't make any sense" Wes said in agreement.

"Thank you" Blaine said, rolling his eyes. As if he had nothing better to do than hiring people to kidnap him.

"There's another explanation, though" Nick said quietly.

"What is it?" Blaine asked.

"There's only one person powerful enough to kill someone like that" Nick said carefully.

"My dad?" Blaine asked. "He is dead, Nick."

"We never actually saw him dead" Jeff pointed out.

"And you think he gave up everything, went to hiding, let me have the kingdom, only to attack me after that?" Blaine asked sceptically. These ideas were insane.

"We have to consider that option, yes" David nodded.

Blaine sighed heavily. This conversation wasn't leading them anywhere, it just made him more confused than he already was.

"I have to talk to the hunters" he said in the end.

"Are you out of your mind?" Jeff gasped. "You can't go to that place, they would catch you and…"

"I'm not going anywhere" Blaine interrupted. "I will just asked Kurt to come over tomorrow as we agreed."

"Kurt, huh?" Jeff smirked.

"Is there something you want to tell me, Jeffrey?" Blaine asked.

"Nothing, Your Highness" Jeff said with a huge smile on his face.

"I trust him" Blaine said honestly. "I'm not sure if we can trust to other hunters but Kurt is a good person. He will help us if he can."

At least that was what Blaine thought. He didn't know what the Hummels had agreed in on the other side of the town.

Kurt could barely hide how nervous he was as he stepped through the huge gates of the Anderson manor. Blaine had asked for him early in the morning, just him, noone else. Kurt started to get worried as he got closer to the building. What if Blaine had figured out what Kurt wanted? What if Burt was right about the king and Blaine only wanted to use him for his own purposes?

There wasn't much he could do, though. They had discussed everything with Sue and apparently, she agreed with Burt about sending Kurt to the king to see if he was up to something. It seemed like Sue knew more than them or better just knew what Kurt had noticed as well, that Blaine was interested in him. If it was all innocent or he planned something, he had to find out.

Deep inside, he hoped that he had been right about the king and Blaine's affection towards him was real. Kurt would never admit it to anyone but he liked Blaine and he made him feel like noone else before. It was strange… He hated vampires, he wanted to get rid of them all, especially those who had killed his mother. He had been pretty sure that these feelings would never change, but then Blaine Anderson had come to his life and things weren't that easy anymore. Sometimes Kurt let himself think about them for a few brief moments, imagining a world where hunter and vampire had a chance to be together. He knew it was stupid. Even if Blaine managed to get through with the changes, there wouldn't be place for a couple like them in their world for a very long time. Kurt knew he had to forget about his crazy dreams for a while, not let them distract him but… It was so hard. Especially after what Blaine had done for him.

Kurt was soon greeted by Blaine's friend, Jeff. The vampire smiled at him a way that made Kurt worried. It looked like Jeff knew something. Was it possible that he knew about his plans?

Kurt forced himself to take a few deep breaths as they made their way into the building and up the stairs. He was professional, he had to act like one. Blaine surely wouldn't try anything when he knew that the other hunters were close and people knew where to find Kurt. He wasn't that stupid that he would risk anything. No, if he was hiding something, he would be careful around him. Kurt just had to find a way to make him talk, to do a mistake, so he could find out the truth.

To his surprise, Jeff led him to a huge dining room where the table was set for two and there were delicious looking meals everywhere Kurt looked. He swallowed as he looked away from the table. He hadn't had anything to eat that morning and it was about lunch time, he was so hungry. He hadn't even noticed how hungry until he stepped in here.

"Hey, Kurt" Blaine greeted him as he stood up from his seat to greet the hunter. He motioned Jeff to leave them alone, turning away from them before Jeff could make a comment about them. The vampire found Blaine's idea quite interesting, knowing that there hadn't been a man like Kurt before who was offered to share his lunch with the king himself. Kurt Hummel had to be special if he made Blaine act like a teenager getting ready for his first date.

Blaine was relieved when Jeff finally left, smiling at him one more time before he stepped out of the room. Blaine shook his head. He wished he could be like everyone else sometimes, so he could have privacy for things he didn't want to share with anybody else. Like this, for example.

"Please, sit down" Blaine said and quickly walked to the table to pull out a chair for Kurt. The surprised hunter watched him for a few seconds but before Blaine could freak out, he accepted the invitation and took his seat at the table. Blaine sighed in relief, knowing that Kurt Hummel wasn't that type who let himself being ordered and only did things he wanted. And it looked like he wanted to have lunch with Blaine.

"Isn't it too much for two people?" Kurt asked as he looked at Blaine, seemingly not knowing what Blaine wanted with this.

"I didn't know what you would like to eat" Blaine shrugged.

"After starving for days? Practically anything" Kurt replied honestly.

"I thought so" Blaine smiled. "Uhm… We have some wine if you…"

"I don't drink" Kurt said quickly. The alcohol would suppress his power and he wasn't sure if he would need it later. So no, no wine, no matter how much he wanted a real lunch date with Blaine.

"Oh… Yeah, yeah, I should have known" Blaine muttered.

"What's going on, Blaine?" Kurt asked the question that was bugging him since entering the room. "I thought you wanted to talk."

"I still do" Blaine said. "We have so much to discuss but since I dragged you here in lunch time, I thought I should offer you a good meal as well. You saved my life after all."

Kurt was quite disappointed when he heard that. He had thought that there was more behind this lunch, even if he knew how stupid it was from him.

"Let's eat, okay?" Blaine asked after a few minutes of awkward silence.

Kurt nodded in agreement. For a moment, he considered coming up with a good excuse why he couldn't eat from the food, reminding himself what he had talked about with his father, but Blaine seemed so nice and excited… So he forgot about his worries for a while to have some time with Blaine, deciding to give him a chance to show him that he wasn't a bad person.

"You eat human food?" Kurt asked after a while as he glanced at the king, seemingly enjoying the food just like him.

"I don't need it but yeah… Sometimes I eat human food because it's delicious" Blaine explained.

"I see" Kurt nodded.

He watched Blaine in interest. He had seen him feed before but it had been different. Seeing that he tried to eat like a human, only not to make Kurt uncomfortable was nice. Kurt really appreciated it. Watching Blaine drink blood in his presence would surely have been awkward but this way, he could forget what Blaine was for a while and enjoy his company. Something Kurt like very much...

"You are hiding your scent again" Blaine pointed out.

"I have to" Kurt replied.

"I know" Blaine nodded. "I wish you didn't have to hide it anymore. I like your smell."

Hearing those words, Kurt smiled. Only a few people knew about him but none of them acted like usual when Kurt was himself. The truth was hard to accept and Kurt often caught those curious looks they sent his way. Blaine didn't look at him like he was a freak, though. It seemed like he accepted it.

Or he just wants to use you for your own purposes, an evil little voice, much like his father's reminded him. Yeah, he had to be careful around Blaine, at least until he found out the truth.

"I guess your men told you what happened while we were gone" Kurt said quietly.

"They did" Blaine nodded. "It's hard to believe. I trusted Thad, he was my friend… I will miss him."

He seemed honest. Kurt waited for a brief sign, anything that showed that Blaine felt differently, but it seemed like he was telling him the truth.

"I don't understand how it is possible" Kurt said.

"Don't you?" Blaine smirked. "As I heard, you and the other hunters have your own explanation."

Kurt gulped nervously. Did it mean that Blaine knew about his conversation with his father?

"Jeff told me how your friends treated them" Blaine explained, seeing that Kurt felt uncomfortable.

"Oh, yes. That" Kurt muttered.

"Is there something else you know but don't want to share with me?" Blaine asked, smiling.

Kurt took a deep breath, considering that he should tell Blaine the truth. He had the power to find out if Blaine told him the truth, he would easily learn if he could trust the vampire. But he was scared that the truth wouldn't be what he wanted to here, so he decided not to share everything with Blaine.

"None of us killed the vampire" Kurt said.

"I figured out" Blaine nodded.

"You also know that there aren't too many options who could do it" Kurt said.

"Are you trying to say that it was me?" Blaine asked with a raised eyebrow.

"You know what I mean" Kurt said.

Blaine sighed and looked down at his food.

"Yeah. The others told me that, too" he said quietly.

"Do you think it was your father?" Kurt asked carefully. Maybe he would find out the truth after all.

"I don't know" Blaine said. "I mean… I know that it couldn't be anyone else. We don't have anyone but me from our bloodline left and I know for sure that it wasn't me. So there isn't another option. I still don't believe that he is alive. He just can't be."

"Were you there when he died?" Kurt asked.

"No" Blaine shook his head.

"Then how do you know that he is dead?" Kurt asked.

"I guess you didn't know my father" Blaine smiled sadly.

Kurt shook his head. He had seen Blaine's father a few times but he barely knew anything about him. Mostly just the rumors he heard about the man.

"My dad loved power" Blaine said. "He loved being the king and he wouldn't have given up his position for anything. Especially since he knew that I would get his place."

"You two weren't too close?" Kurt asked.

"Not at all" Blaine said. "My mother and my older brother died when I was young. I was there when it happened. We were attacked in our home when my father wasn't there. A few guards were pissed off because of my father's new orders and decided to teach him a lesson. I survived, obviously, but my father never forgave me for letting the rest of the family die."

"You were just a small child" Kurt said quietly. "You couldn't have saved them."

"He never understood that" Blaine said. He took a deep breath and emptied his glass before he was able to look into Kurt's eyes again. "My brother… Cooper wasn't like me. He was a lot stronger and always knew what he wanted. He would have become a great king."

"You aren't that bad either" Kurt smiled.

"I don't know" Blaine said. "Sometimes I feel like I'm not good enough for this. I'm weak and uncertain and people can feel it. I guess that's why someone sent those demons after me. My own people want me dead."

"It comes with the job" Kurt shrugged. "You can't make everyone happy. There will always be people who don't like your decisions but you can't let them change you. You are their king, you have to believe that what you do is the best for them."

"I want to" Blaine said. "I really want the best for my people."

"I know" Kurt nodded. "And I believe in you."

Within a blink, Blaine was right in front of him, his hands gently touching Kurt's cheeks, his lips almost touching the hunter's. Kurt didn't pull away. He wanted this. He wanted to feel Blaine's lips on his again, without some stupid ghost messing with his feelings.

Blaine finally closed the gap between them and kissed him so hard that Kurt fell from his chair. He landed on his back beside the table but Blaine was there again, his hands all over his body, his cold lips never leaving his. Kurt put his arms around him and pulled him close, gasping as Blaine pressed his body to his and Kurt could feel his already hard cock through the material of his pants.

"My-my room" Blaine stuttered.

"We can't" Kurt said quickly, finally listening to the little voice in his head that told him what a huge mistake he was about to do.

"Noone will find out" Blaine said.

Kurt looked up into the vampire's eyes. Blaine was telling him the truth. He would do everything to ensure noone saw them together if it meant that Kurt stayed with him.

"Not even your friends" Kurt said finally.

Blaine smirked and before Kurt could blink, he pulled the hunter into his arms and stood up with him.

"If you think I will let you carry me…"

"Yes, you will, babe" Blaine said, silencing Kurt with a kiss. "My home, my rules."

Blaine used a secret door to leave the place this time, one that surely led to his own bedchambers. Kurt tried not to think about how much trouble they would be in if someone found out about this. It was definitely the stupidest thing he had ever done but he couldn't help it. He couldn't keep himself away from his vampire anymore.
