Chapter 30

"Are you sorry? Ruki..."

The tension was thick enough to be sliced by a knife but instead, it was destroyed by the courageous and possibly foolish words of Yui herself. All the heads turned from Yui suddenly to Ruki, who had dropped his utensils back down to his plate and sat up in his seat as straight as possible when addressed. The look in his eyes was pathetic, to the point that she almost felt pity for him. "I almost broke you," he said in a low voice. "I almost broke Eve." His gaze danced around the table until it finally fell upon Yui's eyes, which were wide and filling with tears already. Her lips were quivering but she maintained her composure; her teeth bared down onto her bottom lip and her body even beginning to tremble. Ruki was visibly shaken as well, for his fingers were twitching as he held onto the edge of the table and squeezed to calm down his temper. "He would be disappointed in me. Kill me, maybe." His eyes suddenly darted towards Azusa, who was attempting to keep his cool as well, but was this time staring with tears blurring his vision. Tears spilled out of Ruki's ocean eyes as he stared down at his smallest brother, the one he had always made a point to protect and conceal from the world, and embarrassment over took him. "You should have killed me, Azusa. For that I'm sure somebody, if not everyone, would be eternally grateful. But I thank you. For sparing my life." As if at a tennis match, everyone's heads quickly turned back to the other end of the table where Azusa was sitting. He was completely stunned. It took for what felt to be hours for him to utter a word and when he did, he said, "I spared you... because you have saved me, too. Do not... expect that kindness... from me again."

The monstrous vampire brothers stared each other down from across the dining table, not any of the abundant food in the world being enough to tear them away from each other's dangerous gaze. And though Ruki's eyes were swimming with sadness, they were only met by the fiery depth of Azusa's raging violet eyes. "Now. Let's eat," Yuma said impatiently. The first to hop on his advance was Kou, who was already stabbing into a dumpling and cried out, "Finally!" before shoving the whole thing into his mouth. He then let out an ear piercing belch, clearly satisfied by the bite and insisting that the others give it a taste.

When finally given the chance, Yui fell flat on her back into the protective cushions of her Mukami bed and allowed herself to practically melt down into the sheets. A sweet "ah" left her lips as she closed her eyes and embraced herself with each arm. She squeezed herself just as tight as Azusa would, maybe even tighter, and drowned herself in the much needed physical affection. After everything she had been through regarding Ruki, it was somewhat of a relief to see him with a look of innocence in his eyes. Of genuine remorse. It was a look that she never expected to see in any vampire, let alone Ruki. The instance alone gave her a strange feeling of contentedness, to the point that she finally felt comfortable enough in the Mukami manner to shut her eyes and simply rub the skin of her abdomen to lull her future baby to sleep through her belly.

The blonde was already fast asleep by the time her lover had slipped into her bedroom and silently climbed into bed beside her. For once, he felt normal. He was no longer thinking of his older brother but instead fully put his attention to where he felt it belonged: on the woman who made him feel alive. He no longer needed to stroke any scar or inflict any pain to feel happy. The odd feeling of safety and easiness was something he never expected to come across, but he somehow was feeling it then and there as he wrapped his arms around her.

"Are you... happy?"

Yui's eyes fluttered open in the least bit of panic (which was the usual for her) and instead drifted back into consciousness to the voice of her beloved Azusa. She hadn't even realized he had come into the room but already, his arms were around her and they were in the classic spooning position; she being in the smaller and him the caring cocoon of a blanket around her small frame. As he awaited a response, Azusa slid his arms down her body until his cold hand was lying flat on her belly and he even began to rub it. His touch was oddly comforting, for his fingers clumsily danced across her skin and Yui could still tell that he had no idea what he was doing. It was the thought that counts. "I'm happy, Azusa-kun." She opened her eyes slowly and smiled as she turned to face the vampire, whose eyes were shut and was clearly just awakening from a dozed off state as well.

The lovers' eyes matched up in a loving gaze and was only to be interrupted by the anxious girl's babbling. "I can't believe he said that. Can you believe he was actually sorry?" It was rare that Yui would speak in such a manner, as if she were just any normal teenage girl, and it was almost amusing to Azusa. He wasn't listening to what she was saying. His attention was too focused on her pouting lips. When the one sided conversation had become tiresome, Yui finally stopped speaking and instead nawed down awkwardly on her bottom lip. She wanted to say something to get his attention but came to the realization that probably nothing would, he was already far off in his own world. The quietness came to an end when Azusa slowly began to speak.

"Do you... love me?"

The question was something completely unexpected. Yui had suddenly stopped biting on her bottom lip and expected Azusa to look her in the eye, but she had noticed where his gaze had landed. She felt increasingly insecure and shifted strangely in her spot as she sat up in the bed and turned toward him fully. "Of course I do," she said softly. And with those words, Azusa suddenly pounced. Within an instant, he was on top of her and had already pinned her down to the mattress by each of her wrists. "Azusa-kun!" She gasped. But it was no use, for he was already at her neck and lapping his tongue against it as their bodies pressed together. "Don't be... afraid of me..." He breathed against her neck. Her body cringed as she felt the light prick of one of his fangs but the initial bite never came, instead a series of superficial peck kisses over her throat. "I will take care of you," he breathed, "Give in to my every demand... and devote yourself to me."

Totally overthrown by both his words and his body fully on top of her, Yui was left to completely and willingly submit to her partner who was fondling and kissing her ever so gently. Her hormones were surely going mad at this point, for she was already feeling the familiar tingling sensation that she had felt few times before with Azusa as he overcame her in a lustful gust. "Your blood... it is so hot," he whispered as his lips grazed across the base of her collar bones. He left a trail of kisses along the way before he spoke and said in a low growl, "I can feel it through your skin. The tiniest prick... and... ah. How sweet." The fangs that had merely pricked her moments before were already digging into her flesh, bit by bit, and the blood practically gushed into Azusa's mouth. He was groaning. Both the mixture of pain and the sound of his moans was enough to surge Yui into a fit of small, pleasurable moans and occasional squeals. Her hips were pressing upwards into his and the faster he sucked the blood from her flesh, the more she wanted to thrust up into him. She was confused as to why the feel of him biting her was making her feel in such a way but then it quickly dawned on her, and she quickly pulled away to face the other way and embarrassingly look the other way. "B-but, Azusa-kun, I'm pregnant. How could you want to do this now?" Her face was flushed almost as bright as her crimson lips and when she turned to face him again, she could see that his face was pink as well. But his cheeks were burning in lust, just as his eyes were as he looked down at her. "I want you... always."

Running completely now on passion and adrenaline, Azusa grinded his hips forward into Yui's and promptly kissed her on the mouth; forcing her mercilessly to taste her own blood as his tongue ravaged her mouth. Yui squirmed underneath him in a petty protest, one that she didn't entirely mean and instead secretly just wanted him to push further, and earned herself an aggressive yanking of the wrists up towards the headboard from her lover. His fingernails were digging deep into her flesh as he attempted to contain himself in fear of simply tearing her clothes off and ripping her apart, and instead only kissed her more fiercely and allowed her to feel his hardening manhood through his pants. Her legs were bare and the tease of her frilly nightgown riding up her thighs only drove him madder. "Azusa-kun," Yui managed to breathe between kisses, "P-please. Please, tell me you love." Her words had forced him to stop kissing her and he instead sat up on top of her lap, releasing her wrists and slowly grabbing onto his belt. He began to unbuckle it, at first slowly as they locked eyes, and then gradually began to pull it out of the loops of his pants. "Perhaps..." he said in a low voice, "I should just... show you..."

Azusa hovered above Yui with his unbuckled belt gripped firmly in one hand and his growing manhood being stroked in the other. Her eyes bulged as she watched him touch himself, the sensation in her groin now burning, and she watched practically mesmerized as he began jerking it only inches in front of her face. "Ah..." he breathed, "The look of lust... on your face, it is so cute... I want to beat it all over." With each movement of his cock, Yui felt the overwhelming temptation to touch it and finally did when he whacked it once against her lips. Instinctively, she opened her mouth and allowed her tongue to be a cushioned pad for him to slowly rub the tip of himself onto. The taste of the clearish fluid coming out, what she had been watching drip from his tip and onto his hand as he touched himself, tasted oddly sweet but eventually like vinegar. Though she was totally overcome by the feeling tingling within her, she still managed to giggle at the taste and peek up at Azusa, who began pushing his manhood farther into her mouth. She parted her lips and allowed it to glide to the back of her throat, causing her to gag and earn herself a loud moan from Azusa who was kneeling above her. "How adorable..." he gushed, "the feel of you... it is so tender. So soft..." Her words flowed throughout her and fueled her hunger to please him, even if it was by licking up his odd tasting pre-cum and to engulf his swollen cock into her mouth. She continued to giggle even as it hit against the back of her throat.

"Such a good girl," Azusa groaned as he pumped himself into the naive blonde's mouth. Her lips were carressing his manhood ever so gently and though she gagged frequently, she was clearly determined to satisfy him in every way possible. Her devotation was evident and caused him to blush. "Now I suppose... you have earned yourself pleasure now. My precious... Yui..." He grinned down at her, exposing his hideous fangs that only she could adore, and slowly allowed his dick to glide out of her mouth. A string of saliva snapped back from his tip to her lips, drooling down her plump bottom lip and down the front of her chin. She was blushing bright red now and she was even smiling, the knowing of her pleasuring him greatly making her so proud. "I will show you... how much I love you," he said as he positioned his body farther back so he could yank up her night gown. The pinkness of her heat showed through for only a moment before she quickly closed her legs and clutched onto the end of her dress, her blush deepening again, before Azusa began to chuckle. "What a naughty girl you are... no undergarments. It's as if you wanted this..." He took her by her knees and violently shoved her legs open, exposing her womanhood completely to him. Her legs shook and usually, she would attempt to close them but the look on his face of complete satisfaction stopped her. She wanted to protest at first but now, she was oozing into him and just wanted him inside of her. "Please," she huffed, "take me."

It took only a single thrust to surge Yui into a fit of moans; completely overwhelmed both by the sudden eruption of pain and the slow building pleasure that had just come fully ahead. Both his thickness and his length was enough to fully stretch her walls, at first causing the utmost discomfort, but then he attempted to give her time to adjust to his size. Her eyes were pinched shut in concentration and he could feel all of her intensity clutching around him. "Be at ease.." he whispered gently. His body was now draping over hers and he propped himself up with his elbows at each side of her head, forcing her to only look at him as he penetrated her tight heat. Through all the hesitation and fearfulness of the pain, Yui managed to peek open through tight closed eyes and finally allowed herself to look up at Azusa. He was gazing down at her with lustful filled, passionate eyes that somehow filled her with a newfound courage. All at once, her body began to relax and though her heat was still clenched around him, she finally began to feel the pleasure more than the pain. A weak smile twitched on the edge of her gentle lips and she whispered, "I love you," before he pushed inside of her fully.

The feeling of both of their bodies intertwining was completely overwhelming for both the vampire and the human, who could both feel and express their love in a completely non-mortal nor immortal way. Their parts both throbbed, pressed, and pleasured both together in a beautiful sync and though the pain was clearly present for Yui, she was already too far gone in a blissful mindset of passion and contentness. It only took an additional few more thrusts for Yui's body to completely flow into a fit of pleasure, the ultimate expression of satisfaction: a pounding orgasm that was tended to by Azusa's manhood slamming into it over and over again. Within moments of her climax, Azusa allowed himself to unload inside of her and slowly ended the love making completely with a loud moan and a collapse on top of her. Their parts remained connected, even as they both calmed down and heavily breathed, and he rolled beside her and scooped her into his arms. "How beautiful... the faces you make," he whispered, "nothing could ever compare. How much I simply adore you."
