Creep by Radiohead~

After Mika and Vilem had come down from their high, they had both gone to take a bath. Vilem had carried his shifter to the bathroom, as the latter's legs were shaking too much, and then they had spent a good moment washing each other, caressing their bodies with soap and whispering words of love.

Neither spoke too loudly for fear of breaking the tender atmosphere they were in, but small giggles would leave the panther's lips at the Vampire's remarks, while the King chuckled at his prey's silly antics.

The tense mood from earlier was gone, but Vilem hadn't forgotten the man he would need to take revenge on. A plan was brewing in his mind, even when he dried his kitten in his cat form with a blowdryer. The panther let out loud purrs as his fingers untangled knots in his dark coat. The fur was flying all over, making Vilem sneeze a few times, but he didn't want to stop.

A fluffy white towel was thrown over Mika's head and soon, Vilem was ruffling his black coat until it was shiny and dried. His fur stuck up in random directions and the Vampire nearly choked when his kitten looked at him curiously with a tilted head, completely unaware of his majestic appearance ruined by an evil towel.

Vilem led the panther into the bedroom while holding a purple brush made for long-haired cats, bypassing the bed and reaching for a painting of a library hung on the wall. Mika's slanted pupils widened in shock as the wall opened after Vilem pushed a hidden button. His hackles raised and he took a defensive posture under the surprise, hissing softly.

"It's fine, Love. Don't be afraid." Vilem said, but Mika only growled at him when he realized that the King was trying to maintain a poker face and not laugh out loud. A slight chuckle escaped Vilem's lips as he made a sign for the panther to walk inside the room. Mika huffed, but still followed the silent request, brushing and rubbing his body against his lover's pants. At least, the Vampire's new pants, in which he had changed after their bath, were a deep dark, making it impossible to see the fur sticking to it.

Vilem still made a mental note to buy a pet hair remover in the future, or it would be difficult to explain all the black fur on his pristine white suits and shirts in a meeting.

He could say that he adopted a cat, but there is no way that any of his subordinates would believe that.

Vilem hadn't thought that much about how to introduce Mika to his people, or to society in general. The Vampire King dating the Beasts' King's panther son was sure to make the headlines in every country. He wasn't that bothered by all the attention their couple would get, but he was afraid that it would scare Mika.

They would need to talk about it later.

For now, Vilem followed closely behind the panther and watched with fascination as the shifter's long upturned tail switched left and right behind his hind legs, his hips shaking gracefully. Vilem was in no way sexually attracted to a panther, but he found Mika's shifted appearance beautiful and majestic. It kind of made him want to worship the ground his lover walked on, throwing himself before him on the ground to be used as a carpet. He wanted to feel the panther's cute paws beans on himself, enjoy the chubby feeling.

Still, it was too early to fully let his obsession with his partner free, so Vilem only contented himself on bypassing the shifter and sitting on the couch facing a lit fireplace. The room was small, packed with rows and rows of ancient books. In the middle stood a lone couch, surrounded by a similarly lone nightstand. Only a yellowish chandelier brightened the otherwise dark room. No windows or other lights were found. Crackling sounds echoed in the silent room as Vilem patted his thighs, signaling the shifter to sit on it.

Mika grunted before jumping on the golden couch, fully stretching his body on Vilem's laps and on the couch. His panther body was long, muscled and powerful, but the Vampire's brows furrowed when he felt the shifter's ribs as he brushed him. He chose not to comment on it, wanting Mika to fully enjoy himself and not feel self-conscious because of his weight.

No one liked remarks about their body.

They spent a good amount of time with Vilem brushing his prey, Mika purring, the fire cracking and the air becoming more and more lavender scented. After seeing his shifter take a long inhale and glancing at him with dazed but happy pupils, Vilem looked down at his purring kitten with fond eyes, glad that the panther had noticed the fact that the brush was specially made to scent like Mika's favorite scent.

He had made it customized while Mika was sleeping. He had also ordered many other things that would spoil his prey rotten.

He liked spoiling his kitten.

He loved the feeling of taking care of his partner.

When Vilem had finished brushing Mika's back, having asked him to switch his body over a few times to be able to brush his sensitive tail too, the Vampire gently demanded that he roll on his back. The King was unsure if it would be too much to ask of the panther, as their belly was quite sensitive and precious, but Mika only looked unsure for a few seconds before rolling over.

Vilem whispered a tender thank you to his love before resuming his work.

Mika wasn't bothered by Vilem's hands on him, but as the man reached his lower belly, his body gradually tensed without his consent. The Vampire looked at his eyes with worry and silent questions, but the panther could only grunt to tell him it was fine, not understanding himself why it was bothering him. It had never felt that way before.

As his petting continued though, the worries flew from his mind and he found himself in a blank state, gazing at the brown ceiling with unfocused turquoise eyes. Soon, soft snores left his half-open mouth, making Vilem let out a chuckle at his pet's cuteness.

After taking off all the free fur from his panther's body, the Vampire helped the sleepy shifter slightly turn over so that his hind legs wouldn't be uncomfortably up in the air anymore. The cat twisted his body until he was comfortable before falling back into a dreamless sleep.

The King stroked his lover's fluffy ears before taking the tablet that had been put on the nightstand. After tapping on a few consecutive onglets, a chat room opened. Vilem's soft eyes became sharp and filled with killing intent as he entered his orders into the chat.

The King didn't know if his lover would like to become the Beasts' King, but he sure as well wouldn't let the current one rule any longer.

Hey dear readers, a cute chapter before shit hits the fan.

Vilem has some plans to make concerning Zain, Mika's genitor.
