Dance in the vampire bund: The turtle doves of the vampire bund
By Nikolao
Chapter 2: Love letter
It is a hot summer night in Tokyo, the year is 2010. A couple of months had passed since the visit of the members of three vampire clans. Akira was sitting in his room, still wearing his standard guard uniform, looking at his report to the Earth clan leaders regarding the protection of his highness the queen of vampires Mina Tepesh. Since that job has now fallen on his shoulders alone, the difference between him and the other members was that he was obligated to remain at her side no matter what, to never leave his queen, no matter the danger members of the Earth clan face his sworn duty was to protect his highness and nothing less.
„Protect her no matter what, even if it means killing me or anyone else you know" Those are the words his fatherWolfgang Regendorf repeated numerous times.
Akira was looking at the report with a troubled face, something was on his mind, the future was uncertain, he was poundering on the possibility of a so-called the „impossible situation". He knows he would do anything for his beloved Mina even if it means his death but the thought of a such situation haunts his mind every time his mind gets free of thinking. He takes the piece of paper he wrote and reads it again and again to make sure he didn't forget anything. There was an agreement of some sort between him and his father to give him regular secret reports without Mina knowing and that bothered him a lot, he doesn't want any secrets between them, but his father insisted, pissing of a leader of a strong werewolf clan that defends the queen of vampires is not a great way to start a day, especially if that man was your father. Suddenly a knock was heard on the other side of his door, Akira hides the paper in his desk drawer and closes it...
„Come in, It's unlocked!" Akira shouted
no respond
„I said...come in!" Akira shouted again
Nothing happens
Akira stands up and comes to the door saying „Oh for the love of..." Before his hand reaches the door knob he feels a eerie feeling at the back of his spine, he realised...he was not alone in the room. With a speed of the wind and fury of a werewolf he turns around drawing his gun, pointing the top of his barrel at his beloved Mina, he stoods surprised while still pointing the barrel at her head.
„Is this the way you treat your princess?" Mina asks sarcasticly
„What are you doing? I was almost about to shoot you!" Akira answers cleary angered while lowering the gun and returning it back in his hidden holster at the side of his pants.
Mina smiles and pulls his necktie close to her face, touching his face with her hands, tilting it to the left, while whispering into his right ear.
„Yeah...but you didn't" she lets go of his necktie and notices that his face blushed red
„Ohh...I love it when I make you blush" Mina comments proudly
Akira takes a good look at Mina, she was wearing a black Olga nightgown which pointed out her figure wery well. She was obviusly getting ready to go to sleep.
„See anything you like?" Mina asks in a flirtatious way
„Ummmm...you didn't answer my question, what are you doing here?" Akira changed the subject quickly
„I came here because I was bored, do you mind?" Mina asks Akira who is still not taking his eyes of her nightgown.
„No...I don't mind, but please, next time, don't do that surprise thing again, I might hurt you unintentionaly" Akira goes to the other side of the room to the balcony to check the doors.
„Ohhh...I almost forgot...why do you keep a gun on your holster at night in your room, don't you feel safe enough here?" Mina surprised Akira with that question, she noticed that he got a little rattled by that question.
„You can never be too safe" He gives a neutral and a fair answer while closing the balcony door
„Now look who is not answering questions" Mina commented with a smirk on her face
„What do you mean?" Akira turns back to face Mina
„I asked you...do you see anything you like?" Mina asks while doing a pirouette movement across the room, clearly trying to get his attention back at the nightgown
„Yeah...you...you look...you look nice" Akira answered
„Nice? Just nice?" Mina was not pleased by his answer
Mina approached Akira who was standing at the side of his bed, Akira turned his face outside on the balcony, he was troubled by something...and Mina knew that wery well.
„Akira...what was that piece of paper that you were reading a minute ago?" That question came out like a bullet.
Akira turned back to Mina
„What paper" Akira asks
„Don't play dumb with me...I was watching you...you were writing something for someone" Mina says that with a strong determination to find out just what is Akira up to.
Akira remained silent, he was specialised in protecting his queen, but his biggest weakness is his beloved princess he protects and loves, he is fighting to keep this a secret from her, but it's a fight he doubts he can win. Mina mades a serious face, waiting for a response but then her serious face turnes into a slightly surprised expression while asking
„Is it...a love letter...for me?"
Akira was stunned
„Oww...Akira. I knew you cared and I know that you are not good with expressing your feelings in a direct way, a love leter is a beautiful way to do it, I don't blame you for writing it...I think it's wery nice of you...can I read it?"
Akira remained silent, still not knowing what to answer that
„Ow please...let me read it...is it a poem maybe...is it done? Ohh... I dont care...I just want to read it" Mina was excited and was already expecting a love confession.
Akira was still silent, trying to keep his head cool, maybe he can make her think that it is a work in progress and if she reads it now it will spoil the mood for later.
„Akira...that love letter is for me...right? None other than for me." Mina asks with a serious tone
Mina looks at the table and back to Akira again.
„Is it for...Yuki? Please tell me it's for me and not Yuki..."
Mina has turned agitated and her frustration turns into a sorrow in a second, she starts to cry, Akira notices tears coming from her eyes. Akira starts to feel a sharp pain in his heart, he only wants to protect his beloved queen, this is only hurting her, secrets are making her feel bad and sad and he does not have the strength to watch the person he cares about so much in pain and tears.
„Stop! Just stop! Here...just...stop crying your highness" Akira says while heading to the drawer, grabs the paper and hands her the piece of paper.
Mina pulls a tissue out of her nightgown pocket and rubes her teared eyes saying
„Hehh...works every time"
Akira rolled his eyes, he was cleary tricked
Mina takes a few seconds reading the report Akira wrote earlier for his father
„Owww...It's just another of your secret father-son reports" Mina says that while handing the report back to Akira not hiding her dissapointment for not getting a love letter.
„Wait...what?" Akira looks at Mina
„You...you knew?" Akira asks
„Well of course I knew silly. I know everyting that happens inside the bund, a queen must know everything inside her kingdom" Mina answered with a smirk
Mina sits on the side of the bed and Akira sits beside her, she puts her hand over Akira's shoulder while saying
„But the thing that really bugs me is the way you refer to me as a queen while we are alone, don't tell me you forgot our little agreement" Mina says in a calm tone
„You told me to call you Mina while we are alone, just before the trip to Romania" Akira responded
Mina gets her feet of the ground and gets behing Akira on the bed, she wraps her hands around Akira's shoulders and rests her head on his right shoulder.
„Akira...since Romania, you seem a bit distant, is it...because of that kiss?" Mina asks in a quiet tone almost whispering into Akira's ear.
Akira remains silent, fixated his eyes on one spot, but he was still listening to her words
„I don't want us to be distant, I want you to tell me everything you do, everything you think, I want you to share your deepest thoughts with me Akira, I want you to trust me completely, just like I trust you with your protection every single day" Mina whispers gently
Akira's distant expression has slighty changed to a small smile, but that smile was suddenly replaced by a painfull grin, Mina pulled his left ear while saying a bit loudly
„And I want you to stop calling me your highness, call me Mina when we are alone"
Akira turns to Mina and wraps his hands around her by her hips, bringing her closer and closer untill they are close to each other enough to feel they're breaths. Mina's face becomes a bit red while saying
„And...I want...I want you to kiss me more often, don't be afraid to show me your affection, I don't mind it...I accept it with open arms"
„Heh...now look who's blushing" Akira responded with a smirk on his face
Akira moves his hands behind Mina's nightgown upwards, sliding his hands all over the curves of her slender body, going towards her head, stoping at her neck. Mina closes her eyes in expectation of a sensual kiss, she pouts her red lips towards Akira, waiting for that moment of true pleasure, waiting for they're bodies to become one by using they're lips as bridges, closer and closer, untill she can almost feel his lips press on her own, Akira moves his head a bit up and gives her a gentle kiss...on her forehead.
„Really?" Mina asks while making a confused face
Akira gets up from the bed, heads to the door of his room, opens the door to find Vera standing outside.
„She is all yours" Akira says with a smile
„Ow...your highness...we...we were looking for you all over the place, good thing I was passing by this hallway just now" Vera says that trying to hide the fact that she was standing there all that time.
Akira looks back at Mina with a smile on his face that shows amusment by this scene
„Yeah...good thing Akira was here to protect me while the rest of the castle is searching for me" Mina answers with also a smile on her face
„Your highness...I know It's safe here with Akira but you have school early tomorow and Akira need's to rest" Vera says that with a polite tone
Vera goes on ahead in the hallway expecting her highness to follow her behind, Mina gets of the bed, getting out of the room, saying
„Yes...you're right...I have school tomorow"
Before exiting the room she stops by Akira at the door who is waiting for her to get out so he can shut the door and says in a quiet tone only to Akira
„Next time...I'm bringing a rope to tie you to the bed"
Akira responds
„Then bring a rope for Vera as well"
Mina nodded in approval and left the room, before her figure dissaperes into the dark she whispers
„Sweet dreams...My Akira"
Akira starts to close the door saying
„Sweet dreams...Mina"
