The breeze smelt heavily of roses, looking around seeing the main commons garden, but it felt differently. Looking around, Yui could see everything from a ground level. Feeling the gravel on her belly, it tickled. Moving towards the center fountain, everything seemed so large. The smell of the air lingered in her nose and in her mouth. The sweetness of the air tasted delicious.

Feeling something pull at her senses, she continued towards whatever it was. Remembering that she fell asleep in her bed at the whisper of someone telling her to sleep, she began to ponder if she was maybe sleep walking or if this was a dream inside of dream. Literally feeling she was outside of her own body, it was an odd experience to say the least.

Moving along the cobble stone she noticed how the stones seemed smoother on her skin. While not tickling as it was previously, it still felt soothing to the touch. The warmness of them on her cold body. Hearing a noise towards the bushes, she continued to move that direction. Thinking to herself that it was strange that she held no fear as she approached the bushes, further encouraging her thought process that this had to be a dream. Normally she would be running for the door of the mansion at a suspicious sound such as the rustling and the low growling that she was hearing.

Taking a deep breath and wandering into the bushes, she could feel the branches scratching her back, the leaves rustling over her head and the smell of soil close to her chin. Moving through the bushes a little more suddenly coming upon a large furry creature who seemed to be laying in wait for her.

Moving her head up she could see that it was a rust colored wolf. He had a lighter honey color around his snout, a black nose, and a black eye patch. His left ear tipped with three piercings and a necklace that hung around his neck.

Lowering her head back down she wandered up to it as it watched her with piercing gold eyes.

"Well look who came out to play…" The wolf spoke. It's tail wagging in a playful manner, keeping its head tucked onto its paws on the ground to keep level with Yui.

Yui moving her head back to its lowest setting while moving closer to the wolf. Wanting to say something but instead only feeling her tongue flick out to lick the front of the wolfs' nose.

"You haven't figured this out yet have you. Surely if you had you wouldn't be in your current form but instead something more imposing. The wolf sitting up looking down at Yui. Adjusting her body to keep level with him.

"Follow me, I will try and help you understand." Turning his form into something easier to keep pace with for Yui, a snake instead appearing in front of her. Yui studying him over, the wolf turned snake looked amazing to her. It's scales the same rust color as the wolf before it, and its eyes maintaining the same golden color. Not understanding why, she wanted to follow the transformed snake in front of her, she followed it, questioning just how deep this dream like trance was.

Leading her to an area towards the back of the property that seemed to take hours to get to, came into view a large body of water, lots of trees, and a small dock area. Edging closer to the water, Yui heard the same voice from the animal in front of her.

"Come here so you can see what you are." The rusty colored snake demanded.

Yui scooting closer, the cool grass sliding past her stomach. It felt good, it tickled, and the sensation warmed her body. Peering at the edge of the lake, Yui saw something she wasn't expecting.

A white face with golden eyes with a snake iris. Pulling herself closer to the water, she could feel her legs folding up behind her as her body stretched in the reflection before her. Trying to sit as straight as possible, the reflection showing more of the snakes' body before her. The entire body white with a black tongue flicking out periodically to smell the air, and its golden eyes never removing themselves from staring back.

Feeling something slide over the small of her back and working its way around her waist, it gave her a shiver. So soft but sensual, it made her want to moan but instead she felt her toes curl.

"So cute in this form, your body is so responsive. So the Sakamaki's haven't gotten to you yet, it would appear… Your tail curls to my touch. Simply adorable."

Yui feeling embarrassed from the serpents' words, feeling her body heat as the other individual is wrapped around her in a familiar manner. Looking away from her reflection, after seeing the individual that was wrapping themselves around her, coming into view realizing she was the white serpent.

Slithering into a nearby set of clothes, he began to transform into something else before her eyes. Seeing a towering individual before her. She recognized this individual. The rust color she saw before was now his hair but a lighter blonde with red tints. The patch she saw before was now adorning his left eye. His necklace looking more like a double banded choker with a charm on the end of it. A strange emblem adorned his right shoulder that she didn't recognize. His piercings now playfully adorning his right lower lobe, his gloves black, and his main detailing white.

Yui would have chuckled if she could as she recognized his bushy tail from when she was visiting Karl at his manor with Shu and Reiji the week prior. She remembered, his name was Shin Tsukinami, one of the two remaining first bloods, the last of their kind.

Slithering up to him, looking at him with curious golden eyes as to what he was doing coaxing her from the mansion and secondly as to why her body chose this form to meet him in.

"I am here to help you…" Scratching his head, looking down at the snake inching towards him with a curiosity. "Don't get any bright ideas." Looking away a little unnerved that he was doing this in the first place. "I am only doing this because you left me that dessert outside while you knew I was watching."

Yui thinking quickly, "Dessert?" Suddenly remembering that the same day Kanato decided to brand her body as his in the kitchen with his fingers and his fangs, she left the last bit of the ingredients in a last strawberry short cake outside on a plate. Thinking to herself, "He must have eaten it…"

"The taste of that is unlike anything I had before. What did you put in it that made it so tasty?" Looking down at the white serpent. Yui remembering her blood had been mixed into the cream, noting that its probably why it tasted so good to this individual before her.

"Oh right… You can't talk. Let's fix that."

Leaning down and picking Yui up, holding her in his hand. Yui suddenly feeling very afraid of heights, began to cling to him for dear life. Shin chuckling as he watched the serpent wrap its body around his arm. The back end of her tail sliding under his sleeve.

"You know, technically you are shoving your lower half of your body up my arm." Moving his face closer to the head of the serpent, "That means you are rubbing your body all over mine."

Feeling even further embarrassed by her actions, trying to get loose of his sleeve only to feel her body working its way further inside of his clothes. Hearing a hearty laugh from his lips as she tried to right the situation.

"You're going to need it anyways…" Keeping Yui in his sleeve and working the rest of it off his body, picking up his vest from its nearby perch and putting it on. Leaning over to Yui who is now on top of a bush wrapped in his shirt, "drink this." Holding her serpent head in his hand and using an eye dropper to push a few droplets of liquid into her mouth.

"Ugh, this is one of the worst tasting medications ever!" Yui proclaimed to herself. Laying in the folds of the shirt blankly for a moment before suddenly feeling herself sink to the bottom of the bush. Deep laceration marks adorning her back as a result of her body shifting mass and being crammed in the middle of something with thorns.

"Oww!" She yelped.

Peering at the bush with his shirt still partially clinging to the top of it. Seeing Yui's head pop up and look around.

"Well, Hello there." A devilish smile playing on his face. It's nice to formally meet you in the flesh. Quiet literally… "His voice trailing with his eyes down to Yui's bare form, taking in her disheveled appearance. Smiling to himself as he studied her. She did indeed look like a first blood with her golden eyes. Not sure if he was taken aback at the prospect of a first blood female, or simply because he smelt something familiar. Yui piqued his curiosity to say the least.

Yui feeling his eyes staring her down, quickly grabbing the shirt and wrapping it around her torso. Feeling the blood on her back soaking into the white shirt. Buttoning it up as she stepped out, doing her best to ensure all the lower buttons were as closed up as possible. Feeling the cool night air nip at her legs, her exposed assets, and make its way up the shirt as it was too large for her small frame.

Shin leaning close to Yui and brushing his black gloved hand over her face in a familiar manner. "You are so beautiful when you sleep…" His smile playing coyly at his manipulation of Yui earlier.

"So… that was… you?"

"Indeed it was. I needed to get you out of there without being noticed."

Still confused by his motives, there had to be something other than the dessert she left outside as to why he would go through all this trouble.

Shin's face appearing in front of Yui, his tail whipping back and forth. "Are you ready to use your wolf form?"

Yui looking at him curiously for a moment, "My wolf form?"

His tail stopping mid wag and a look of disappointment. "You mean you don't know? You can turn into several animals at your disposal. Us First Bloods are a superior race to that of any other. You have transformational abilities. One of which is the wolf…"

Leaning down and peering at Yui, his distance making it uncomfortable for her considering she's nearly naked. Stepping back a bit from Shin and looking at the ground. Heat rising in her cheeks at her embarrassment and feeling slightly unnerved.

Sighing briefly, "Let's start with the basics." Mumbling to himself, "I can't believe I am doing this for a worthless human."

Turning towards Yui with a warm smile. His smile made Yui's heart jump, "He seems so charming compared to the Sakamaki's", Yui thought.

Turning into a wolf before her eyes, his necklace hanging onto his neck and his patch remaining with his three piercings. The same image as before. His clothes falling around his body. Shaking them off like a wet dog, Yui giggled to herself thinking he looked cute.

Snarling at Yui, "What's so funny?"

"Nothing! N-Nothing!"

Glaring at her with his one eye, "Let's get this over with. The faster you learn, the faster we can go have some fun." Licking his chops with a grin that seemed fitting for his stature.

"Get on your knees."

Questioning his direction for a moment before considering she had no idea how to do what he was suggesting, figuring it would be easier just to do as he said. Adjusting her position so she was at face level with Shin.

Sitting before him, she looked over his furry features. Noting that even in his wolf form she found him to be 'cute'. His ears so perky and soft looking, she wanted to touch them. Looking at his bushy tail sweeping the ground behind him. He seemed happy about something. Smiling at Shin, reaching her hand up to pet him when suddenly she felt his teeth snipping at her hand.

"How dare you think to touch me! You aren't worthy of me! How dare you insult me in such a manner thinking you can lay a finger on me!" Snarling with the fur on his back raised, looking like he was ready to tear her to bits.

"I'm sorry! I shouldn't have done it without asking!" Grabbing her hand and tucking it into her body. Trembling with fear that she could very well be eaten alive right now and no one would even care.

Coming down off of his growling, sitting back down and looking at Yui shaking in his presence. He found it enticing, but not his purpose. "Why did you reach out to me anyways?"

Yui looking at him noting that he is turned away from Yui, seeming to have calmed down a bit. "You looked…"

"Yes?"

"You look…" lowering her voice and hanging her head down fumbling with her hands in her lap, "cute."

A low growl coming from his lips, "What the fuck?! She thinks I am cute? I should rip her to shreds, see how cute she thinks I am then!" Shin reflects inwardly. Trying to keep his emotions in check at the behest of his brothers' wishes. "He did tell me to try and educate her, but I had no idea the bitch would be so bothersome!" Thinking to himself while staring at Yui.

"Shin?"

Snapping him out of his internal strife at the situation. "Think about turning into a wolf."

Tilting her head sideways and looking at him quizzically again.

"Are you that dense that you lack imagination?"

Looking at him with an embarrassed face and one of slight defiance, "NO! I HAVE ONE! JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE!" Pouting at Shin in his wolf form.

Smiling under his breath at her outburst. He found it somewhat 'cute'.

Watching Yui close her eyes and try and focus, she almost looked like she was cowering from something. After a few moments of effort, Yui opened her eyes again to find that nothing had changed.

"You are still thinking like a human."

"I promise I am trying to think wolf life thoughts!"

Shin chuckling at her words, getting up off his laurels and walking around the back side of Yui.

"Imagine yourself with fur, fangs, paws, and the breeze flowing over your hair…"

Yui nodding and closing her eyes again.

As Shin walks around the back of her, leaning his snout up to Yui's back and smelling her fragrance from the lacerations on her back. Thinking to himself that this same smell was what he tasted in the dessert. Now putting two and two together that her blood was in there somewhere.

Licking the soaked blood on the shirt as it was still wet, Yui feeling his tongue lap at the blood on the shirt on her back giggling as it tickled. Feeling his whiskers poke through the shirt, she felt funny that she knew he was a first blood, but somehow seeing him in his wolf form tickled a different part of her heart that she found warming.

The taste was overwhelming, but it missed a purity. No doubt those damned Sakamaki's toying with her taste. Annoyed that her blood was currently tainted he would have to drain it out of her to make it palatable for him and his brother.

"Where have they bitten you?"

"What?"

"Those bastard vampires. Where have they bitten you?"

Yui not fully understanding why he is asking, pulling the collar of the shirt down, showing Shin the marks Laito left on her neck. "The others are in an… umm… embarrassing place."

Placing his paws on Yui's thighs, his weight shifting to bring his snout up to her neck. His snout tickling her shoulders and his whiskers tickling her neck, she did her best to keep still and not laugh or squirm at the sensations adorning her skin. Feeling Shin pressing his paws onto her thighs was strange too. Normally she would be turned on if one of the brothers had their hands on her thighs but this was different. It was his paws, having a hard time of thinking of him as anything else other than cute, she jumped when suddenly she could feel his tongue lapping at the marks on her shoulders and neck from Laito.

"Ahhha-hahahaha! Shin! That tickles!" Wrapping her arms around his torso in a familiar manner trying to stop his tickling.

Pulling back from her in an annoyed manner watching Yui squirm around before him. He couldn't remember in a recent span when he encountered another individual that found him 'cute' or 'non intimidating'. It seriously pissed him straight off.

"Perhaps you'd find a different form harder to deal with and one you could take seriously." Moving back into his regular form, visually coming back onto all fours, looking at Yui with a grin on his face showing his fangs and a look that Yui found frightening.

"Shin! Your clothes!" Yui cried trying to cover her eyes.

"You should give me back my shirt."

"But then I'd be naked…"

"I could always rip it off of you." A larger smile playing on his face while pressing his body closer to Yui's. Her legs now slightly under his body. "Where else were you bitten?"

Looking away from Shin and feeling a heat return to her cheeks. Her face turning a light pink thinking about where else Laito bit her. Tucking the shirt in between her legs, inadvertently telling him exactly where the last bite was.

"Let me see it."

Looking back at Shin and giving him a defiant look. "No!"

Moving closer to Yui and placing his hands on her thighs. Instantly feeling a gasp escape her lips, covering it with her mouth. Shin sliding his right hand down her thigh and letting his fingers search before feeling the two holes left behind by one of the Sakamaki's branding on her body. Moving his face down to her lap and nuzzling at her hand with his nose trying to cover her body with the shirt. Licking down her thigh, his tongue reaching further down than Yui was expecting. A jolt shaking her body and allowing him access to move his hand further in between her legs.

"A bite so far in will require you giving me more access."

"Someone might come by!" Yui's face turning back to Shin, wearing a full set of blush. Shin enjoying the view of the embarrassed girl before his eyes. Something about making her feel this way really got him excited. His tail beginning to sway back and forth with a possibility.

Running his left hand up to her torso and pushing her back, taking his right hand pulling her right thigh further apart, and shoving his face in between her knees. Soon after feeling her knees grip his head. "Stop!"

Morphing back into his wolf form, sticking his tongue out to tickle her thigh. Yui feeling what was between her legs opening them up wider but pulling the shirt further down between her legs covering her womanhood.

Turning back into his human form, using his left hand to now spread her legs further apart. Anchoring her legs firmly to each side of him licking further up her legs. Smiling to himself that his plan of tricking her worked. Knowing she has a soft spot for his wolf form, she eased up just long enough for him to gain the upper hand.

Nuzzling his nose against her hand while reaching the final mark, hearing a pant of excitement from Yui's lips. Smelling her own excitement through her hand and the small bits of his shirt she was attempting to use to shield herself. Leaning up and sucking blood from her thigh. Moving it around in his mouth – it tasted disgusting. Taking a mouth full of it and spitting it out. Repeating the process several times.

Yui confused by what was going on, her blood being spit out in such a fashion. Normally the brother would drink, even gorge on her blood. Shin was spitting it out?

Inquiring to the matter, "Why are you spitting it out?"

"I am only interested in beautiful blood. This is utterly repulsive. Disgusting. How could you let those Vampires taint your blood?"

Confused at his words, watching Shin continue to take mouthful after mouthful of her blood and spit it to the right side of her. She actually felt more powerful the more he did this action. After what seemed like several minutes, he finally stopped. Going in one last time, suckling a large amount. Taking his share to sate his hunger, keeping some in his mouth and crawling over Yui. Looking up at Shin hovering over her. A shiver running down her body, he looked delicious. A crazed beast holed up just below the surface. He had her curiosity to say the least. His unique abilities compared to those she was living with, his demeanor also different than those that she has encounter. Playful but with a purpose other than just to suck her blood. Not fully understanding his motives, she figured it would only benefit her to play along for now until she could find out more.

Shin pressing his weight further on top of Yui, she felt something she was surprised by. Avoiding focusing on his excitement, she could feel his hands ripping the shirt open in the front but not off of her. Noting that only the last few buttons on the bottom of the shirt remained. Shin's lips coming closer to her own. Pressing his lips to her own and opening her mouth briefly to be greeted by his own tongue but also a warm fluid. She guessed it must have been some of the blood that he took.

Feeling his excitement rub against the top of her hand, startling her movements, quickly moving her hands from trying to cover her flower, feeling his hands grasp her own, weaving his fingers in them and holding them to her chest.

Moving up so he is sitting on her hips. "Drink it and awaken as your wolf."

While waiting for Yui to do as he states, taking his hands and running them over a trail of her blood he left down her chest, and her stomach. The trail stopping just short of her unspent bud. Getting up off of her hips, moving her hands to her sides and nuzzling her neck in a playful manner before trailing his lips, tongue and firm kisses in between her breasts, down the center of her core, and to the top of her tummy. Leaning up, hovering over her body, running his hands down where he just left his trail, admiring her blood stained skin. The smell of it coming off of her body, it tantalized his senses.

Scooting down Yui's body, getting back onto all fours, pulling her legs apart and pushing his face back up to where Laito's stamp remained.

"Shin…" a panted moan escaped Yui's mouth. Knowing that she would have had to drink the blood he placed in her mouth to make that sound, smiling into her thigh. "You're driving me mad right now. Hurry up and turn."

Taking his tongue and moving it across the last of the vampire stamps on her body in long, languid, firm strokes, driving her body to heat up under his assertive movements. Feeling a scent begin to emanate from her body, getting onto his legs, sitting up to see Yui with her eyes closed focusing hard on the task at hand. Admiring her body while she lay there. Legs slightly spread, her hands on each side of her head, and her golden and white hair shimmering under the light. Blood streaking down her body looking like she just got away from a fresh kill and feasting on it.

Shaking his head for a moment to see her shape shift into her wolf form. Even in this form she was breathtaking. White fur throughout, even her belly was white. A voluminous fluffy tail, perky pointed ears, and delicate paws stained with red from her blood earlier. Shin found himself in awe of the creature before him. Almost forgetting that he himself needed to morph to train with Yui, quickly shape shifting before her eyes opened.

Walking around her and nuzzling her with his snout. "You can get up now. You've turned into a wolf."

Yui wiggling her body up and frantically running in a circle at excitement. It made Shin laugh because her actions reminded him of a puppy. Yui running to the edge of the water to look at herself, then hop back, bark at it, and then do another lap around Shin before running back to the lake to view her appearance again.

"For fucks sake… CALM DOWN!" He snarled.

Yui stopping in her tracks and looking at Shin. "You act like a common house pet. Get over here and stop fucking running around like an idiot."

Hearing nothing but growls and whines from Yui at her failed attempts of talking.

"Speak properly damn you!"

Yui making another attempt and just howling in a low growled voice at Shin.

Sighing again at Yui, she made his head hurt. If Carla hadn't ordered him to teach her about her first blood, he'd have been happy to just kill her and steal the heart from her body, and let the Sakamaki's die in a fiery hell that his brother brewed up for them.

Yui sitting perfectly still, wagging her tail while staring at Shin.

"Don't give me those eyes, god damn it." He began to wonder if this is how his brother felt sometimes when he was trying to teach Shin something.

Yui nudging her snout forward and licking her lips with anticipation of his next order.

"Imagine yourself as a talking being instead of just a wolf playing the part."

Yui tilting her head again and growling, howling, whimpering at him all at once.

Sighing again, knowing failure wasn't an option, Carla wouldn't forgive him if he couldn't teach the last female of their kind how to control herself. Rebuilding their race to its former glory was both of their aspirations.

"Try saying your name, like this." Shin letting out what at first sounded like a howl, but turned into her name.

Watching Shin say her name, made her heart melt. It sounded so beautiful to her. A momentary distraction, suddenly feeling her heart race and excitement flowing to the pads of her front feet. Scooting closer to Shin, looking at him a little closer in his current form. He was still cute to her. Smiling at her thoughts, deciding to give it a shot at saying her name. To her surprise, her name came out this time.

"Now try something else." Shin instructed.

"I think I've got the hang of it." Yui calmly states.

Looking at her sharply for a brief second, "What changed?"

"I stopped thinking of myself as a wolf and remembered I had a voice."

Not quiet understanding her logic, but feeling satisfied that she could talk.

Shin suddenly bolting off towards a side of the lake. Yui not understanding what's going on, suddenly feeling the need to chase after him.

"Wait! Shin! Where are we going?"

"You will see."

It excited him to have someone else to run with. Invigorating, considering Carla rarely humored him. Since Carla and Shin had been exiled, he missed this feeling of running free over large open spaces.

Suddenly stopping in an open clearing, Yui catching up to him. Her pants heaving through her body, her scent becoming stronger. Shin wondered what else she could do since she wasn't a full first blood like him and Carla were.

"Why… did we… stop?" Yui declaring in between pants.

"You can go faster than this…" Shin walking up to Yui and licking her nose before sprinting off in another direction.

"Shin!" Getting herself set to sprinting status, feeling the branches of young trees and bushes break off and cling to her fur. Tucking her ears down so that the branches stop slapping them as she breezes past shrubbery.

"Shin! Where are you?"

"You mean you can't tell?"

Stopping for a brief moment, remembering that wolves can smell better than any human. Sniffing and remembering his scent from when he kissed her. Running towards the direction of the scent and finding Shin calmly sitting there with an amused look on his face and his tail swaying back and forth dusting the ground.

Yui barely having time to catch her breath before seeing a blur of fur run away from her.

"Catch me if you can!"

Mumbling under her breath, "Damn him! He's too fucking fast!" Starting up her running pace again, this time turning on a dime as she senses Shin trying to lose her. She was starting to enjoy their game of hide and seek. Her body sensing another surge of endorphins come over her, sensing a blood lust starting to build up. A hunger starting pool in her body. A burst of strength kicking to her arms and legs, the dirt under her paws seeming to dig deeper into the pads of her feet. Suddenly seeing Shin come into view, she was gaining on him!

Shin noticing that she suddenly was catching up to him started going faster. Despite outputting his speed, Yui was still gaining on him, trying to figure out how she was making that possible continued to draw on his remaining power to outrun her. Knowing there was only one way to catch her off guard, turning on his heels and beginning his run directly at her.

Yui seeing his shift in movement suddenly stopping and turning around and running away from him. She giggled at their game and loved that she was now being chased. Running with Shin made her heart feel light, she enjoyed the freedom she felt as she continued to pick up speed. Looking behind her to see Shin no where to be found.

"Shin! No fair!" Slowing down and starting to back track thinking she may have lost him.

"Shiiinnn..."

Hearing a growl from somewhere near. Using her nose to smell him close. Lowering her voice and creeping down to a hunker, finding him hidden in some bushes.

"What is it?"

"We are being watched."

"What? By who?"

"Someone powerful, we should get heading back before he tries something."

"He?"

Yui's tail beginning to wag at the prospect that Shin was looking after her.

"Get ready to run with me as fast as you can to the house on three."

"Okay…"

"One…Two…Three!"

Both Yui and Shin running at full speed. Yui noting that Shin seemed to be knowing where they were going keeping a short pace behind him. Looking over her shoulder seeing nothing but a squeaky noise behind them and gentle flapping on the night air. Figuring it to be an owl or a bat moving around, she continued to keep up with Shin. Feeling the branches continue to break in her hair, leaves mat themselves to her damp fur, and her tail feeling full of debris.

Arriving to the Sakamaki mansion, to Yui's surprise, seeing Shin fully bolt into the window of her room not skipping a beat in making the jump. Looking back behind them, Yui noting that she couldn't see or smell anything following them.

"Get in here!"

Yui looking up at the window and jumping up onto it and into her room. Seeing Shin in front of her, breathing deeply.

"We made it. It would be bad for him to see us together."

"He who?"

"Are you referring to I?" A voice coming from above them.

Both Shin and Yui looking up to see the strongest of them all standing with an amused look on his face.

"Teaching our new pet tricks are we?"

Shin growling at Karl, baring his fangs.

"You forget; I know of your interest in Yui. Carla made that quiet clear." Leaning up and picking a dried leave from Yui's fur.

"She is quiet appealing to your kind in this form I would imagine." Looking at Yui and smiling warmly. "You are quiet fast, able to keep up with Shin here is an impressive feat."

Yui blushing, turning her head down at Karl's words.

"Fuck off! You old bastard. Carla is the king, not you!"

"Tsk. Tsk. Best you watch that mouth of yours. Carla may be your brother, but you are of no threat to me." Shaking his gloved finger at Shin with disappointment.

Growling at Karl, the fur on his neck and back raised.

"My beloved Yui… I will see you tomorrow. For now get some rest." Snapping his fingers, turning Yui back into her human form. Her eyes quickly fading from a gold to her normal pink.

"Also a pity for you Shin, but she won't remember tonight."

"What? Why not?"

"I can't have her getting a head of herself. She needs to awaken naturally otherwise there will be… problems."

Yui looking at Karl, hiding behind a nearby curtain after realizing all of her clothes were gone. "Why won't I remember tonight?"

"I'm sorry Yui, but it has to be this way."

Leaning to Yui's face and caressing it gently. Her expression going blank and falling to the floor in a state of unconscious.

"If your half the man your brother is, you will put her in her bed."

Shin growling at Karl before seeing him disappear. Mumbling under his breath, "I loathe that asshole." Transforming into his human form, picking up Yui's lithe body and setting it upon her bed. Pulling the covers back and then pulling them over her. Her hand reaching up to grab his hand as he began to leave her side.

"Shin…" Quirking an eyebrow, leaning over her sleeping form, smiling at the branches in her hair, the dried leaves stuck to her skin, and the dirt under her finger nails. Karl wouldn't be able to get rid of everything. Smiling that he'd get to see Yui again before rationalizing his thoughts. Why did he want to see her again? Looking down at Yui, remembering the pace of free running with her through the forest, free as can be. He wanted that feeling again and would do anything for her to remember.

Leaning down a final time, running his left hand against her disheveled appearance, taking his right hand and kissing her fingers.

Turning back into his wolf form, walking back to her window, looking a final time at her laying in her bed, and jumping out the window.

Reiji waking up in a cold sweat, grabbing his forehead, noting that it was a new day. Thinking about what he just saw. Getting ready to get out of his bed to find a sleeping Yui laying on him. "What the hell was that dream?" He thought to himself.

Laying back down, running his hand up to Yui's body and caressing it in a familiar but tender form trying to remember why exactly she was laying on him. Not that he minded. Popping his head up, seeing her wrapped around his body, his fang marks adorning her skin as proof that she was his. Suddenly it coming back to him that he had drank from her multiple times the night before. To the point that it rendered her unconscious. Thinking about his actions… Twice? Four times? Thinking harder… It was seven times. Pinching the bridge of his nose, he could suddenly feel a massive headache coming on. It felt like he had been hit by a lead weight directly in the head. He began to wonder if this was the equivalent of a human hangover, he had never drunk from any of the brides that much in a duration as they typically died shortly after the second time. Remembering that Yui had reached her limit on the seventh time he bit into her.

"Mmm… Reiji-san…" Stirring in her sleep, looking up at him. Running her left hand up his face, and moving his hair away. Looking down at her, he could still see the same eyes as the night before. Golden with a color of burnt rust around the iris.

"You look so delicious; I want to eat you right now…"

The words jumping up into Reiji's throat. Yui's hands trailing from his face across his lips, down his chin and trailing her fingers down the center of his chest. Why did her current state disturb him?

Yui adjusting her body, climbing further up Reiji's body. Sitting herself up on top of his lap, his excitement already responsive to her advances. Leaning forward towards him, grinding her hips onto his lap.

"Someone is excited to see me so early…" A coy smile playing on her face, running her hands up inside his shirt and lightly caressing his shoulders, taking his shirt completely off. Kissing up the side of his neck, lightly nipping at his flesh.

"Yui… do you understand what you are doing right now?" Maintaining restraint with the situation given that he isn't entirely sure she has self awareness at current.

"Don't you desire me, Reiji-san?"

His eyes growing wide, "There it was again. What the hell is this?"

Noting that the night before, Yui snapped out of his state briefly when he drank too much of her blood. Leaning into her body and wrapping his arms around her body, nuzzling her neck with his face.

Whispering into her ear, "You have no idea how badly I desire you, but right now isn't the right time." Sinking his fangs into one of his open marks on her shoulder, beginning to drink heavily of her body again. Hearing a faint moan escape her lips, her body relaxing under his touch. Hearing him drink from her body was music to her ears.

Several minutes going by before feeling Yui's body grow limp in his arms. Pulling his fangs from her shoulder, licking at the droplets running from it. Her hand coming up to his face and caressing it in a tender manner.

Looking back at her eyes, noting the soft pink hues again. "I'm sorry Reiji-san…" A look of sadness in her eyes as they closed and she slipped back into unconsciousness on his bed.

Yui now sleeping soundly again, thinking to himself that he needed to get her some food. He had drained a considerable amount of nutrients from her body and she hadn't had anything to eat. Covering her body up with his covers and resting her head squarely on a pillow. Getting up, walking behind the screen, getting dressed in his normal attire. Walking out, picking up his glasses from a nearby table and working his glove on. Peering at Yui while straightening up his attire, he also noted that his headache seemed to subside a bit since he drank from her.

"This requires further attention. In the meantime, I need to get started." Reiji contemplated in his head, what humans typically liked to eat. Going to his book case and pulling out a cookbook labeled "Traditional Breakfasts". Thumbing through a few pages and tucking the book under his arm. Going to a nearby table and setting out some attire for Yui to wear when she woke, with a note in his best hand writing on top of it. Setting it in a place he knew she would find it when she woke up.

Walking out of the room and quietly closing the door behind him. Between the night before and what he experienced in his dream, he had a lot to contemplate. Seeing as Karl also knew about her transformation but did nothing to inform him, it pissed him off. It almost seemed like Karl was stacking the cards in his son's favor. Knowing that the First bloods had already started to interact with Yui, it complicated matters.

Getting downstairs to the kitchen, setting the cook book on the counter, and peering at what the page opened to… "Eggs Benedict". Reiji began making a breakfast for Yui when she awoke. In the meantime, what exactly did Karl have up his sleeve and why were the First Bloods teaching her how to awaken as one of them?

He needed answers and only one person had them…
