JUVIA's POV

My eyes fluttered open, my eyesight a little blurry.

After blinking a few times, I immediately felt cold and something warm on my back.

I also found myself in some unknown place... or room.

Wait... where am I?

Panic rushed through my veins as I scanned my surroundings again. I tried moving a little but my whole body froze when I realized that there's a hand wrapped around my waist.

My eyes widened and happenings of last night came into my mind.

The hand tightened its grip on my waist, bringing me closer to the chest of the owner of the hand—the vampire who captured my heart, Gray-sama.

I almost moaned when I felt his chest on my back. We're actually spooning right now.

I would've got up, gathered my clothes, dress, and wait until Gray-sama wake up but since it is really impossible to get up without waking Gray-sama, I guess I should stay until he wakes up.

His body moved again, closer to mine. I can feel his warm breath on my neck, sending chills down my spine.

"Awake?"

I almost jumped when he spoke. I didn't turned around.

This is just a dream. This is just a dream.

No. What happened last night is true. I can still feel his cold fingers running through my whole body.

This is not a dream.

I turned around, facing him.

His hair is tousled from last night—which I know is my fault—and I can still remember how my hands ran through his scalp and how he will groan about it. I can still remember his hands touching every inch of my body.

Even my heart.

"Are you just going to stare at me like that or...?" he joked and I giggled.

"Nothing... the happenings just looked so... unreal." I said, looking away from him to hide my embarrassment.

But he gently brought his hand up to my chin, moving it to make me look at him.

"We are destined for each other, Juvia. We mated just a few hours ago. I know this may be shocking and all, but here we are. This is our destiny, Juvia." he said, which made me wonder.

"That's very unusual for you to tell, Gray-sama." I said. Gray-sama is a cold person—base on what others had said—and is probably one of the people who have no interest in love.

He looked speechless at first before he half-smiled.

"It's been a long time since I had voice out these... things too." he said. Pain in his voice. I couldn't help but hug him. I know what happened to the Fullbuster family and what Gray-sama's been through.

And it was unspoken for centuries already.

Then a couple of knocks was heard from the door.

"Knock! Knock!" we heard a voice.

Wendy!

"Breakfast is ready, Gray-nii and Juvia-nee! Grandpa wants to see you two!" she yelled outside the door.

Oh my Mavis.

She knows!

And not only her...

but also King Makarov!

Oh no... we're in deep trouble.

"And don't worry, grandpa's not mad!" she added like she had heard my thoughts and I sighed in relief.

I rushed to the door with the blanket and opened it slightly, peeking out my head so she can't see the situation I'm in. I smiled at her.

"Thank you for the information, Wendy-chan!" I replied.

"You're welcome!" she replied before she turned around and walk away.

I sighed, closing the door, sitting on the bed and facing Gray-sama again.

Gray-sama just stared at me, suddenly making my cheeks warm.

He sat up and leaned forward to my ear.

"You haven't forgotten of last night, have you, Juvia?" he—surprisingly—said huskily. My whole body trembled when he said my name.

"N-n-no. P-Prince. I-I ha-haven't." I answered, stuttering. I can feel his smirk on my neck.

"Good girl." he huskily said again, his voice deeper than earlier that sent shivers down my spine.

Just like last night.

I felt Gray-sama's hand travel from my hand up to my shoulder slowly before his lips replaced his hands as I felt him kiss the mark which made me hold a moan by biting my lower lip.

I felt him place kisses from my neck to my cheek before he stopped and looked at me. I blushed, unconsciously biting my lower lip harder. His gaze went from my eyes to my lips.

"If you bite your lip like that, we won't be able to make it in breakfast." he chuckled and my cheeks went warmer than before. I didn't even knew that my cheeks are capable of doing that.

"G-Gray-sama..." I whined at his joke and he chuckled again.

"Fine fine. I'll wait later after breakfast, deal?" he said and I smiled, nodding my head in return.

At least Gray-sama enjoys my company.

WENDY's POV

I was assigned to wake up everyone and make them come down to the kitchen for breakfast. I first woke up Juvia-nee and Gray-nii. Now, I have to wake up Natsu-san and Lucy-san.

I did the same as I did when I woke Gray-nii and Juvia-nee. Only, there was no one answering so I knocked a few more times while calling their names.

I was about to open the door when I heard stumbling inside before the door opened, revealing Lucy-san'd head peaking outside. Her hair disheveled, I can see that she's only wearing a white blanket for cover of her body. And don't forget to mention the smell on her.

"Wendy-chan! Me and Natsu will come down for awhile, ok? We'll just... we'll just... uhm... How do I put it..." she stuttered and I smiled.

"Grandpa also said to clean up before going down for breakfast." I said and she instantly blushed.

"Uh... S-sure." she said before smiling awkwardly and closing the door.

I snickered. I was about to go downstairs when I remembered another room. Jellal-nii!

I skipped towards Jellal-nii's room and knocked.

"Jellal-nii? Are you awake?" I knocked again a few times.

"Jellal-nii? Hello?" I said. It didn't looked like a nice plan to open the door but I have no choice.

I grabbed on to the doorknob and turned it to open it.

"Good morning Wendy-chan"

I jumped when I heard the voice, making me step away from the door. I turned to the source of the voice to find Mira-san.

"Mira-san, you scared me." I laughed and she giggled.

"Did I? Sorry, Wendy-chan. But it would be not nice if you would open that door now." she said sweetly and I looked at the door.

"What's wrong? Did something happened to Jellal-nii? What's the problem?" I panicked.

"No need to panic. He's just... sick. That's all." she said calmly that made me sigh.

"But how did you knew?" I asked and she smiled.

"Me and Laxus heard... many in pain noises last night that we assumed that he's sick." she said and I panicked again.

"But don't worry. It looks like he just needs a rest after a tiring night." Mira-san said and I smiled.

Mira-san is the sweetest girl I've known in my entire life. But that doesn't mean that Juvia-nee, Lucy-san and Yukino-san aren't. She's just different from the others... in some ways.

"So why don't you go downstairs and tell grandfather that you've done your task. They'll surely come down after a few minutes." she said and I nodded, complying.

But Jellal-nii's condition still bothers me... maybe I'll take a look at him if he doesn't come down for lunch.

Breakfast, and lunch had passed and yet Jellal-nii haven't came out of his room yet.

I frowned as I stared at the food we left for him in case he comes down to eat in the dining table.

"Maybe I should—"

"No. I'll be the one to check on him." Dad suddenly said, standing up from the living room's sofa.

He was already on the first step on the stairs when a scream was heard in the entire house coming from upstairs.

We all looked at each other before dad ran upstairs to check where the scream came from. Grandpa followed.

What is happening?

And why does the scream looks like it came from a girl?

SILVER's POV

I immediately ran quickly towards the source of the screen.

I heard a couple of thuds that were coming from Jellal's door.

And that's where my ears told me of where the scream came from.

I stopped in my tracks, facing Jellal's door. Father rushing to my side.

"Should we open it?" I asked and Father nodded.

I grasped at the doorknob and turned it counter-clockwise to open it. And when it opened, I can immediately sense that something bad had happened.

My eyes widened at the situation in front of me.

Jellal holding a pillow to cover his... you know and a girl covering her body with a blanket that I assume is Jellal's on the other side of the room. From what I remember, she's the organizer of the foods, drinks and beverages in Father's party last night. Right, Erza Scarlet.

Jellal and the girl's eyes widened as she looked at me and especially Father.

"Are you the two of you mates?" Father asked calmly. But Jellal and the girl looked at each other.

Both of them slowly shook their heads. They looked afraid.

"Then why did you slept with each other?" Father asked again, his voice turning from calm to anger.

Both of them didn't spoke.

"Mira said that she saw five bottles of tequila in the kitchen earlier when she woke up." I turned my head to see Laxus leaning on the wall beside Jellal's bedroom door, his arms crossed.

"So that means..." Father whispered.

"That they got intoxicated last night. Explaining the situation they are currently in now." Laxus continued. I looked at Jellal again. He looked afraid. And lost.

"Last night I also heard a couple of sounds too. Good thing Mira was already asleep that time." Laxus added. My eyes widened.

"But... the rooms are soundproof, aren't they?" I asked, looking at Father. He looks like thinking about it.

"That's right... it's impossible that these walls are not soundproof. I made it sure by trying it myself before you all got here. So why—" Father abruptly stopped and looked at the girl with wide eyes.

"Wait... Are you a vampire? Or are you...?" Father asked, specifically to the girl.

"What? What is it?" I asked. Father just stared at the girl. Before completing his sentence.

"Or are you a witch?"
