ZNN SHORT STORY: EVERY UNIVERSE

Part 4 || The Vampire's Slave: The Vampire's Kiss

Nunew has been living in Zee's luxurious mansion for almost a month. Day by day, he also became more comfortable living there. Everyone in the mansion treated and cared for him very well because it was an order from Zee.

Now he has started to adjust himself while living with the vampire tribe there. He remembered the first time he was in this mansion, he didn't dare to look and look at the blood that was served on the table every time they ate. But now he has adapted. He can already eat at the same table with other vampires. The strong smell of blood had become a habit for him.

But, he was still afraid of the appearance of a vampire. He still didn't dare to see the vampire side of Zee. When he sees the face of the vampire side, he will remember his late mother who died because of a vampire. Because of this, whenever Zee was with him, he would never see Zee take out her fangs and claws. Zee will always try to control himself. 

His relationship with Zee seems to be getting more familiar and intimate. Every day they will chat and spend time together. Every night they slept on the same bed hugging each other. But, Zee will go out at exactly 12 am and will return after 1 am. That's what Nunew realized about Zee's routine. Nunew knew that Zee was out looking for victims at that hour.

Nunew slowly opened both his eyes and the first person he saw was Zee. Zee was still sleeping soundly while his arms wrapped tightly around Nunew's waist. Nunew looked at him with still sleepy eyes.
Nunew: Good morning, evil vampire. (Nunew kissed Zee's forehead gently)

Nunew still felt sleepy because last night he tried not to sleep. Last night a partial moon had appeared and that signified that Zee would be as weak as possible. Because he was worried about Zee's condition, Nunew kept waiting for Zee's presence in his room.

Flashback ...

Nunew was sitting on the bed while holding both his hands tightly. He was engrossed in looking at the moon in the sky through the wide open window. Tonight was a half-moon night and Zee wasn't with him then. He was very worried if something was going to happen.

"Hia ?!"

Nunew was surprised when he saw Max suddenly enter the room through the window taking Zee with him. Nunew guessed right. Something he had expected to happen to Zee. Nunew then got up and approached Max. His eyes focused on Zee's pale face.
Nunew: Venture Max ... 

Max then put Zee's body on the bed and then he looked at Nunew's face.
Max: I had warned him not to go out on a half moon night but he was stubborn. Look what happened right now ... he's so stubborn. 
Nunew: Where did you found him ?
Max: At the back of the old hospital. 
Nunew: Oh God ... Hia ...

Nunew sighed then he then stepped towards the door. 

Max: Where are you going ?
Nunew: He need blood. 
Max: Nhu ... not tonight. 2 weeks ago you gave him your blood. You can't give him blood tonight. 
Nunew: Then, you expect me to see him in that condition ? Just looking at him until he woke up after 2 or 3 days ? Like that, Ventrue Max ?

Max walked closer towards Nunew.
Max: Look ... I know you want to help him but you need to take care of yourself too ... we have another blood for him. So, don't worry.
Nunew: But the blood only gives him energy for a few hours, right?
Max: ...
Nunew: Don't try to stop me and please ... please keep this as a secret between us. If he knew about this, he will stop me from doing it. 
Max: Nhu ...

Nunew just ignored Max's words. Without wasting time, he then stepped towards the kitchen to pick up the equipment he had bought a few weeks ago. The equipment is a tool used to take blood. Without wasting time, he then took his blood using the tool and placed it in a golden bowl.
