SACRIFICE (BL) [COMPLETED]

Chapter 45 Thirst

Kana's PoV

I can't move.

I feel like I'm drowning but at the same time my body's floating on a harsh wave of the sea.

I'm really dizzy, my head is pounding and I feel like vomiting.

Why...Why am I like this?

I want to wake up, it's dark here.

As I complained, I heard someone moving beside me. A sound of stainless steel, a pitter-patter and also murmurs of people.

I pushed myself to open my eyelids, and the first person I saw was Sir Suppasit, soaking his hand in a basin.

"....Hnngh? Sir Suppasit?"

The knight paused and glanced at me. He was staring at my body instead of answering so I called for him once more, believing he didn't hear me.

"Sir?"

"A-Ah yes?" he flinched and finished soaking the warm towel before handing it to me.

"You woke up? Can you wipe your body by yourself?"

"Oh..yes! But why are you here Sir Suppasit?"

I accepted the towel and wiped myself with my trembling hands, still lying down. I still don't have any strength so I peeked at the knight who's watching me wipe myself.

"U-Uhm..Sir Suppasit, if you don't mind...can you pull down my pants? I don't have strength in my arms..."

I asked him a favor, I only looked down on the bed as I'm embarrassed but I heard a sound like a smack thus I lifted my head to check what he did. I saw his bruised cheek on one side of his face.

Did he punch himself?

"Yes..yes."

"T-Thank you.."

"....."

As he gently undo my pants, I was staring at his neck and I couldn't stop myself from swallowing. I suddenly felt thirsty with this kind of view.

"That mark on your chest.." Suppasit gazes at my chest while pulling down my pants. I also stared at my mark, which is a cross.

"Ah..this..I asked my father about it yesterday too."

"According to him this is like our second heart. If I get pierced in here, my body won't regenerate for a maximum of a whole day and that could kill us if we lose a lot of blood. It's our house's secret so no one knew that until now."

"Then why are you telling me that?" our eyes met and our faces were close to each other's, making us both awkward.

"A-Ah..because you asked about it? And you won't kill me right? Or will you?" I asked, quite unsure with my own answer. In truth, I really don't know what's going on in his mind. He's hard to read.

The knight laughed it off and once the pants had been stripped off, he covered my legs with the blue blanket. It's good to be back in my room but I wasn't expecting I'll be back in this frail body of mine.

"I don't know."

"Y-You don't know...? But I'm nice to you...I'm never gonna hurt you..."

I scratched near my ear, averting his eyes. I said those words to convince the knight that I'm harmless, which is true. I'm not really gonna hurt him, I'm no match for him.

I heard him chuckle and sat beside me, snatching the towel on my hand and wiping my cold arm.

"Of course you wouldn't, you're weak."
