“Hello master”

“AAAAAAHHH”, Narya- surprised to hear the dyran who sprung on another branch below her spot, where Erduas at. Narya cover her mouth- too late, she revealed herself. Another dyran climbs on the tree after hearing her scream, while the black-haired dyran with a full-scaled face jumped toward Erduas, biting his right calves. An immediate bond was formed, marking Erduas as his master. Erduas stabs his arrow at the dyran's head, and both of them fell on the branch.

Narya dived and grab Erduas on his feet, leaped in the air, and landed on another branch. Narya grabs her dagger from Erduas’ waist and jabs it into the bitten calf. Afterward, she immediately remove her scarf and tied it below his knees- stopping the spread of the dyran’s venom. Another dyran creeps up, and quickly enough, Erduas projects a blade on his feet, cutting the Dyran’s hand reaching Narya’s feet.

One dyran left, watching on top of the tree, afraid to approach. Narya ignores the young dyran and jumps below with Erduas on her shoulders. Erduas grunted from pain from the impact of the ground to his feet, but the astral effortless landed silently and light. Erduas- limping… grab an arrow on his back and shot the last dyran on the tree.

“I did not mean to scream, they’re gonna find us anyway”, I don’t know why I have to say that. Tsk.

My captor sat on the ground and rub his calves.

“Let me”, geez, what the hell am I doing. … tsk. I’m sucking his hairy calves. I could not taste his blood but the texture is disgusting. Too viscous. I spit the blood with a mix of yellowish fluid. I never knew the poisoned blood of nomasa would be like this.

“You fly?”

Is he asking me? Do I fly? What? Like superman? Is he wondering why I leap in the air? Should he wonder 'bout that, it's a known ability of astrals anyways.

“No”

“I think you’re all good, how do you feel?”, geez, Narya… why am I doing this, this is not cool.

“Let’s get going”, He answered and stood. Is he shy to say thank you? Hmm.. cute (lol). *sarcasm

He shook his head.

“What’s wrong?”, I asked. He pointed at his bitten calf.

What about it?

“More”, He replied. What more?

More sucking?

Haist. Okay fine.

“Sit down”, I said.

And yeah, I have to suck once more. Which ended for about 1 to 3 minutes. Every time I said it's done, he says not yet. But I am worried which I am not supposed to feel, is it because of the handsome face? Oh my ghad… that is the most pathetic reason… no way. I should let him die here, right?

I spit my last, but again, theirs a mix of yellowish fluid on his blood, and he is already pale.

“Your blood”, he said.

“W-what? What do you mean?”

“Heal me”

“You mean? I will cut myself and give you a drop?”

He nodded.

“Huh? Is that possible?”, and he nodded again.

“Promise me first…”, and now he looks at me in the eye- disagreeing but he has no choice.

“You help me find oldbird. And don’t hurt me. Why are you being so heartless on a lady, huh? You even kneed me on the jaw”, I said, but the more I talk I feel intimidated by his unchanging stare.

But anyway, I did it. I prick my left pinky finger…

“What now?”, I said but he grab my wrist.

I stood up and move back.

“Why… You have fangs?”

Is he a vampire? Not a scaled-person?

A hybrid of a nomasa and a vampire maybe?

“What are you?”

“I need your blood…pls”

Please?

Did he say please?

That doesn’t mean he said it, I should let him. Duh

“I’ll tell you a secret if you please. I need blood”

I glanced at the dyran’s dead body behind.

“Okay, wait a bit” I answered.

“Here, you suck its blood”, putting the dyran on his lap.

“NO! I need red blood”, he said moving the dyran beside and looking at me intently. I staggered from his predatory brown eyes.

“The dyran has red blood.”, I said and breath-in ...hoping it calms my erratic heartbeat.

“I NEED H.U.M.A.N blood. So pleased, I’ll promise I won’t be harsh on you.”, he sounds desperate but… why does he have a fang? I never read about this.

“Please, I …don’t … have… enough time”, he said once more, he was losing his breath.

“Tell me, why did you kidnap me?”

“I did not!”

“What? You kidnapped me! You kidnapped me at Diran Na!”

He shook his head, his eyes drooping. Is he acting for me to get close huh… Nice one, but blood suckers… No way, he’d be the worst companion to have if he indeed is a vampire. They fed on human blood. Did he secretly feed on me, and made me unconscious, no wonder I'm too unaware that I am already too far from the town.

Did he? I feel my neck and check if there's a bite mark, but nothing. No trace, maybe it healed, but, there's always a scar, and I could feel that, like the laceration on my back. The scar may not be visible but I could feel it.

Is he a summoned like me? From another world? World of vampires maybe? Oh my...

Okay, f*ck…let him live. I stepped closer.

“Hey…”, I extend my wrist waiting for him to bite but…

“Do you want it or not?”, I said but his head is looking down at the ground, or was he unconscious? I cut my wrist, a small slit enough for blood to flow.

“AAAHHH!!!”

I was caught off guard, and now his fangs are bored deep into my neck. I pushed him, but he didn’t budge. He squeezes his body onto mine and confines me within his clasp. I feel my energy being drawn out from his bite as if my heart had fallen to my stomach and beating so hard and juddering my organs to their weakness. I was holding onto his sleeves, I don't know how my hands got there, but plsss... I don't like this.

I felt vacuumed, forcedly vacuumed.

“E-enough!”

I swing my head on his temple with my remaining strength, and for a brief second, he withdraws his fang. But then he yanked my hair and bore his fangs on my shoulder this time.
