Author's Note: How's it going readers? Sorry for not updating for a while, it just took a while to decide what to write about for Cain's part. Review if you want.
Disclaimer: I do not own Black Blood Brothers. If I did then there would be alot more moments of Jiro's past seen by the viewers.
Jiro laid in bed and read from a book he managed to find that was printed in his native language of Japanese. Jiro couldn't help but wonder if all the books in his room were only in the bizzarre language he tried to read earlier, but decided against checking each book for he was very tired recently. For about a week now he had been confined to his bed except for his evening out with Cassa. It had been a wonderful night on the roof of their large mansion. Apparently Alice was very important in both the world of vampires and the world of humans especially because Alice was an assistant to one of the most powerful advisers in Britain so her home was much more extravegant than the navy base he called home. Jiro longed to return to his old life, to be able to walk in the sun and take a decent bath without becoming a skeleton. Jiro sighed for he knew that he was well past the point of no return and decided that if he was going to be stuck here he might as well make the most of it and by that he decided that actually reading for once would be good. While living in the navy base he was unable to take the time and actually sit and read a book without being rushed off to his next assignment. Jiro heard a knock on the door, slipped a bookmark into his page, closed the book, and set it down on his nightstand. In stepped a man that was clearly much larger in both height and most likely weight based on how he could barely fit throught the door. This man had greyish-blue hair that was combed back with spikes at the end, he had grey eyes that were much more intense than Jiro's were for Jiro's eyes held a slight hint of blue in them while this man's was just grey, and this man wore a suit symbolizing his position as a butler of the manor.
"So you're the new fledging I keep hearing about. Funny, I thought you'd be much bigger than this," the man scoffed as he sized Jiro up while Jiro did the same to this man.
"Well pardon me for not being up to your standards and I thought that butlers like you were to remain silent unless your master or mistress gives you permission to speak," Jiro retorted before realizing what he had said. He never spoke like that when he was in the navy for he knew very well from when he first began his training that back talk got one hit and sent to solitary confinement. Jiro looked up at the man expecting to be punched or be pulled by his hair to some empty room to have the rebellion beaten out of him, but instead was met with an impressed look on his face.
"I must say that I'm impressed, I have yet to meet a fledging before you that actually talked back to me in such a manner. Usually I get the newbies blabbering on like idiots or the overly polite types that appologize for things they didn't even do," the man replied as he looked at Jiro in a new light. Something about Jiro just reminded him of his lost lover, but decided not to ask for he didn't want to break Jiro anymore than he was already broken. The man could sympathize with Jiro for he too had gone through the process of being turned and unfortunately for him he was turned during a time that a war between the vampires was reaking havok on the world and wound up having generous and willing blood donors getting killed while others were becoming vampire hunters to rid the world of the blood suckers. Jiro stared at this man with a feeling of familiarity but decided against brining it up. The last time he did something of the sort he was nearly killed at the age of four and a half years old. He noticed a bottle of blood in the man's large hand and felt drool run down the corner of his mouth. Jiro wiped it away, but the man must have seen because he was chuckling at Jiro's expense.
"You really want this don't you," the man teased as he swirled the blood in the flask and allowed the slooshy sound to be heard by Jiro. Jiro's eyes turned a dark blueish-gray color as he felt his primative instincts take over.
"Too bad, this is my snack you know." Jiro felt anger build inside him to the point where he became frightened of himself. Never before had he felt the urge to rip the flask from the man's hand and guzzle down every single drop within it. Jiro's hand reached for it but with his other hand he restrained it for he didn't want to appear weak. The man chuckled a little more before leaving the room and a clearly ravenous Jiro alone.
"Don't you think you were being too cruel towards him? Jiro's techincally a baby vampire and needs to be treated with tender love and care before he can fend for himself," Alice chided as the man walked by her.
"He's no infant, just a mere brat that needs to learn how to control himself and his urges. He'll learn over time that he just can't take what he desires," the man responded as he tossed the bottle to Alice. She caught it and glared at the man.
"Cain Worlock you are the most inconsiderate man I've ever met," Alice growled once Cain was out of earshot. She sighed and walked to Jiro's room. She knocked and walked in to find Jiro biting on a towel and holding onto the headboard of his bed. She walked up to him and removed the cloth from his mouth.
"Here, you must drink all of it so you can be well again," Alice said sweetly as she gently handed Jiro the flask of blood. Jiro looked at her for approval and when she nodded he uncorked it and drank half the bottle in one gulp. He paused to breathe and never realized how good the metalic blood tasted before. It was slightly sweet with a note of milk tea and the taste of it made Jiro want more of it. He drank the rest of it and licked his blood stained lips. Alice smiled and kissed Jiro's lips softly. Jiro wrapped his arms around her waist and deepened the kiss. Inside he was screaming for not only did he lose self-control, but he also was kissing a woman he barely knew. A woman whose name he only knew, Alice Eve.
Author's Note: A little short, but its better than nothing. Review please, and there will be more romance and the ending might surprize you all.-Bff#3
