Her Sweet Blood (Ferid X Fem!Reader)

Chapter 19 - I Want to go Home

Shinya missed.

Ferid stepped out of the way at the last second, and Y/n let out a sigh of relief, letting her head fall onto the corner of the roof.

"Dammit!" Shinya seethed, pausing for a moment before turning to Y/n as he watched the girl get up wobblily and run back towards the stairs.

"Y/n! Where are you going?!" Shinya yelled after the younger female.

"Uh-," Y/n staggered over her words, she couldn't tell the major general of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army that she was going to go side with vampires, "I'm... I'm going to go help Shinoa and Narumi!"

Y/n didn't wait for a response as she practically flew down the stairs and out into the open.

Y/n knew it was a death trap to run straight though the battlefield, so instead she got as close as she possibly could to Ferid by taking the old streets behind surrounding buildings. She came across a few vampires, but she was able to take care of them quickly.

Y/n peeked out onto the battlefield once more and realized this was as close as she was getting with cover. She watched as Ferid easily threw Guren back, the lieutenant colonel breaking through several concrete walls with the force.

With his first class sword drawn, Ferid took a few steps towards the colonel before he stopped and smelled the air, doing a double take.

"This smell..." The vampire mumbled to himself, before turning around and his eyes widened at the sight.

There was his beloved human, tears running down the female's face as she panted with pain and exhaustion. She leaned up against a building, blood seeping heavily from her stomach.

Y/n's blood. He had smelled it before when he had drank some of the young woman's blood.

The vampire's interest in taunting the human faded as he quickly made his way over to Y/n, finishing off any human or vampire that dared get in his way.

"Y/n!" Shinya, who seemed to have come down as well and now stood with Mito and Goshi, yelled.

"Y/n back up!" Guren yelled to the young solider, who just stood there, one eye squeezed shut in pain as the other watched the vampire come towards her.

"Y/n, look out!" Shinoa and Narumi both exclaimed, fighting off other nobles, unable to get to their friend.

"Y/n...!" Ferid finally called the girl's name as he got close enough to notice the bad extent of Y/n's injury.

Y/n was about to say something else, but Ferid didn't wait. He scooped Y/n up in his arms, one arm under the back of her knees, and the other around her lower back. 

The poor h/c haired girl's energy started giving out as Ferid retreated, and she didn't hesitate to wrap her arms around the 7th progenitors' neck, as with what little strength she had left she hid her face in the crook of Ferid's neck as she finally choked out a sob, as the stress, anxiety, and pain, both physical and mentally starting setting in.
