Chapter 13
Vampire Blood?
I'm walking down the school hallways by myself until…
"Oh! You're so cute, Rika!" Kou shouted out loud as I'm walking past him and a schoolgirl.
Awe looks like Kou found someone he's fond over… That's good!
I smiled to myself as I kept walking. I still feel a little happy ever since Yuma has been hanging out with me, and he actually makes me feel like a normal, human girl instead of a tool known as "Eve".
I still have NO CLUE what "Eve" or "Adam" is…
I sighed to myself before going to my first class but someone grabbed my wrist tightly from behind. I turned my head to see Subaru!
"Um, hi…" I gulped.
"We need to talk… Now," he said in a low voice.
"I can't miss class…"
He interrupted. "It's important!"
I felt my body shivering in fear. He's scaring me!
Subaru still had a tight grip on my wrist as he is dragging me down the hall and up the stairs. He then escorted me all the way up on the school's roof!
"What are we doing up here?!" I asked… I had a bad feeling about this.
"What are you?" Subaru questioned harshly.
"Huh?"
"What are you?!" He repeated but more sternly.
"I'm a human?"
"That can't be right… Your blood is different from any mortal's. I can sense it but you don't look like a vampire…" Subaru muttered.
"Vampire?! No, I'm not that!" I raised my voice.
Before Subaru could say anything else, Kou came out of nowhere with a scowl on his face.
"Stay away from Eve!" Kou ordered.
"What is she?" Subaru snapped.
"That is none of your concern. Stay away from her!" Kou grunted.
Subaru looked at me for one last time before leaving me… What does he mean that my blood is different from any other humans? What was he going to tell me? Is this why he keeps staring at me, to figure me out?
I can't even figure myself out…
"Why were you hanging out with him?" Kou questioned harshly.
I let the night breeze blow my brown hair around as I continue to ponder on what Subaru was getting at with my scent…
"Eve!"
I snapped out of my train of thought to answer Kou. "He dragged me up here. He is saying my blood is different from any other mortals. What does he mean, Kou?"
Kou didn't answer but instead, he slowly approached me. "Why weren't you jealous when I talked to another girl? Don't you care that I might be searching for a new girlfriend since you rather be with Yuma?"
"What?" I blinked in confusion.
"That girl you saw I was with… Weren't you jealous?" He smirked.
"Um, no… I was happy for you…"
"You are supposed to be jealous!" He shouted out. His words caused me to tremble.
Did he use that girl to try and make me jealous? That's sick…
"I'm sick of you giving all your attention to Yuma! What does he have that I don't?!" He spat as he grabbed my shoulders in his grasp.
"Kou, you're scaring me…"
"I DON'T CARE!"
My body is frozen in place. I'm scared… Kou went to bite my neck until…
"What do you think you're doing?" Yuma grunted.
"Yuma?" I called out his name shockingly.
Kou rolled his eyes and pushed me into Yuma before leaving us alone on top of the school's roof…
"Why aren't you in class?" Yuma raised an eyebrow.
"Subaru dragged me up here and asked me what I am… Do you know? I don't know what he's talking about. He says he sense my blood being different from any other human. I then tried to ask him more questions but Kou interrupted," I explained.
Yuma shrugged. "I don't know… All I know is that Karlheinz wants you to pick one of us as "Adam". I have no idea what you possess but Subaru is right about your blood being different from the mortals."
Karlheinz is the one who saved them all and wants them to help with the Adam and Eve plan…
"I'm not a vampire, right?" I asked.
Yuma's eyes widened. "I… Don't Know."
I felt my heart sinking. This cannot be right! I have no fangs or anything of that matter! This has to be some sort of misunderstanding!
"Don't worry things will clear up for the both of us. The only one who knows all the information is Ruki." Yuma snorted.
"I don't want to ask him…" I hung my head.
I didn't feel like talking to Ruki about it because I know he's not going to tell me. I bet Karlheinz told him not to tell me but why wouldn't he tell the other three brothers?
Maybe Karlheinz knew one of the brothers would end up telling me the plan and he only trusts Ruki with the information…
"Hey, being a vampire isn't so bad, you know!" Yuma grinned.
"I don't want to be a vampire," I muttered.
"What's wrong with being a vampire!?"
I offended him…
"I didn't mean it like that! I just personality can't see myself as one…"
"Tsk!"
I studied Yuma and he looks really mad! I should've kept my mouth shut. Should I apologize?
Yuma then sighed and lifted my chin to meet his gaze. He then leaned in and kissed my lips softly.
Just like that, I forgot all about Subaru, Kou, and even the Adam and Eve plan.
