Vampires Bride

Chapter 31

Akashis Pov

I walked through the halls, nodding at the vampires and hunters I passed. We had set up our headquarters in one of my hotels, closing it down to the public. I watched as a group of both hunters and vampires leaned over a map, discussing their next search plan and felt pride at what had been accomplished. We were finally working together. However, the cost was too high. I remembered the last time I had seen him, a little over three weeks ago. I was so close to him but Hanimya, the heartless bastard that he was threatened the life of our child. I didn't even know that he was pregnant.

"My lord."

I stopped and turned to see one of the scouting vampires behind me. He looked at me, eyes weary and full of pity. My chest ached at the thought of what news he brought.

"One of our teams found a group of cultists and they were carrying this. They killed themselves before they could be interrogated but this is addressed to you."

Midorima leant forward and took the package off the man. He opened it carefully and inside was a USB and a letter.

"To the new emperor, congratulations. As a coronation present I give you a video I am sure you will enjoy. It is my win Akashi."

I closed my eyes against the rage I was feeling and turned to continue my walk to my rooms. When the doors were closed I spun and grabbed Midorima.

"Put it on, I need to know what happened to them."

He hesitated and the rest of my clan got to their feet, curious at what was going on.

"Seijuro, it could be like the tape from Haizaki, especially if they were working together."

I bit my lip, "I know, but I need to see him."

With a sigh Midorima nodded and walked towards the computer to plug the device in and select the video. The first thing we saw was his face and it panned out to show him holding a baby in his arms. I heard a collective gasp go around the room but my eyes were glued to the screen.

"Congratulations Akashi, I want to introduce you to your daughter, Hina. She is human, as far as we can tell."

I growled when he bent down to kiss her forehead. He smirked at the camera, as if he sensed how I would react. He handed my daughter to someone off camera and then he turned and my heart almost jumped out of my chest when I saw Kuroko sitting on a bed. Hanimya placed the camera on a table or stand and walked towards him. I drank in everything about him and frowned, he looked pale and was swaying where he sat, his eyes slightly unfocused. I watched in rage as the vampire sat next to him and brushed his hair out of his face and placing a kiss on his head.

"Show them."

In response to his words Kuroko got to his feet, and back to the camera, kissed Hanimya. Time seemed to stand still as I watched the scene unfold before me. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

"Undress."

Again, without hesitation, Kuroko stripped down and then he got down on all fours, back towards Hanimya. Smirking into the camera, he dropped his trousers and slammed into Kuroko all at once. I turned away then but couldn't drown out the noises that Kuroko was making. I heard a sob between his pants and I clenched my fists so hard the knuckles groaned in protest. At last I heard some grunts and it was over.

"So like I said, congratulations on becoming a leader. As you can see we are quite happy here and well on our way to making a child. See you around Akashi."

I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding in and the room was deadly silent.

"Did you pick up anything Ryota?"
