Mystic Eyes (Rosario Vampire x Male Reader)

Family Strain

Under the circumstances, you made arrangements to once again make your way to the ski resort that Mizore and her fellow Yuki-Ona called home. This was the case with the rest of the Newspaper club save for Gin. It was a matter of support at the very least. It was bad place to be in for the girl. Which made no sense because her mother by last count was rooting for her to get Tsukune. So why the arranged marriage?

It was on the bus ride over that Yukari tapped your shoulder form across the bus aisle. That meant temporarily leaving Kurumu without a shoulder to lean on while you listened to what the witch had to say. Mizore and Outer Moka stuck by Tsukune out in front while Saber was behind you.

"You're wondering why this arranged nonsense right?"

"Yep. Something you know about it?"

Yukari leaned in to whisper.

"Well she got the coming of age ceremony thing right, but yeah the arranged marriage is also a thing. Much like Kurumu there, Yuki-Ona have a numbers problem. Most of them will be infertile by their mid twenties, so the idea's to have Mizore hitched while she's young." Yukari explained.

"Okay. But that doesn't explain why her mother seems to be on board. She was all over Tsukune, when Dad wasn't in the picture anyway." You pointed out.

"Right. If things go south, I've been getting the hang of Reinforcement."

"If things go south, we'll have to go all out in deployment."

"Agreed." Saber chimed in. Her frown made it clear about her opinion in Mizore's situation.

"You okay Baeber?" Yukari asked, having noticed the expression.

"Suffice it to say that I have a troubled past with arranged marriages." Saber said.

"Hey wait, if you're the King of Knights and you married Guinevere, which is hot by the way, how did....... how does Mordred work here?" Yukari asked.

You groaned before answering. "I'll keep it short. Merlin gave Saber the means. Morgan slipped in and basically roofie'd Saber. And that's the end of that subject."

"Oooookaaayyyyyy...." Yukari took the hint and said nothing further. With that, you went back to giving Kurumu a nice pillow.

"Mmm. Has Moka ever commented on how warm you are?" Kurumu remarked.

"If I'm being honest, I'm surprised she hasn't." You replied. You would not tell it to Moka, but her body temperature was noticeably cooler than normal human flesh. If you had to guess, it matched the ambient temperature of the environment. She was warmer after either a period of cuddling or after feeding on blood. For all intents and purposes, you were figuratively and literally Moka's source for warmth.

"Mmmm. Ever since we went to Fuyuki, I wanted to ask something."

"Go ahead."

"You acted like that park and the war were bad memories, but those weren't your memories were they?"

"The price of transferring a Crest." You did not mention that Moka has seen them too.

"Are you having the same night.....errrr.....dreams then?"

"Every night. One way or another."

"I can help with that." Kurumu offered.

"How?"

"We succubi can go into someone's dreams. So maybe.... Maybe I can take your mind away from fire and brimstone."

"Thanks." Then a thought occurred to you. If there was one thing you learned from Magecraft, there was always some kind of catch.
