This book is labeled 'mature' for a specific reason and you'll see soon in the beginning! I am not very experienced with writing steamy scenes (or so-called lemons lmao), but I decided to take a gamble and do something different with it. Also this chapter is very action-oriented and LONG. Not as lengthy as the last chapter, but still pretty long lmao.

Just wanted to give you readers a heads-up! Okay, without further ado, please enjoy this chapter! :>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It feels like a dream — hell, it almost seems like you were living in a dream. You wanted time to flow slowly, so that the memories of friends you've kept in your heart, didn't spread elsewhere. However much you dreamed, it only widened the gap between dreams and reality.

The romantic expression was hardly conducive to a relaxed atmosphere. The sound of two heartbeats along with the carnal desires that escaped from the sinner's lips had resounded through the room. Her cherry lips engulfed yours, her tongue sliding into the oral cavity to explore her new territory. No matter how much you fought against it, the mutual feeling inside your heart doesn't leave.

The blondette on top of the sinner draws herself back, her tongue running against your soft cheek. The vermeil flood in your cheeks extended towards your ears, then your entire body had begun to succumb into sensual gratification. At this moment in time, you hadn't left your concerns behind due to your lack of experience in intimate congress. It became evident as the blonde looked up at you, gazing into your eyes that have been clouded by a haze of unenlightenment.

The vampire touches her lips to your ear, trancing you with her husky voice. Though her utterance sounded slightly hoarse and low-pitched, her sweet words were conveyed in a gentle, erotic whisper. "You can relax, [Y/N]... I got you... Leave your concerns and doubts behind, and allow me to show you what it means to love..." With that, your heart flounced out of your chest.

You gestured meaningfully with a mere nod, wanting to remain in this eternal dream with the beautiful youth. She smiles and pulls you toward her, utilizing the upper left of her limb to lift the two-colored cape over you and herself. The female character passes her tongue over your neck; her fangs flourishing as she also drags them against your smooth skin in such an enticing manner. She had you on her fingertips, and there was no way to fight or rebel against her. Looking at one another, you and her were falling deeper into the blissful pool of love.

Soon, pain strikes into your neck and to feel your own blood hymning to the Gods as the vampire drinks deeply was rather... odd. The synergy between you and her was only beginning. Her red eyes that you once considered foreign are now different. The same shade of crimson is still present, yet it truly is a divergent path — you also saw the red sign as some sort of a divergent evolution. Burning in the deadly color of red, you wanted her to love you harder.

You loved the blondette even harder, letting the vital fluid that coursed through your veins to stain her heart with the color of deep red. You didn't want her to let go; you didn't want her to leave you; you want her to remember this crimson moment. Your eyes keep tingling with excitement as she continues to indulge into you.

Small moans break free from your lips as she gently licks the wound. The tall blonde embraces her arms and the two-colored cape over you. As if you were in a cocoon, you were trapped beneath her and the vampire still had her head out, staring down at you with red eyes. The same ones to construct and mark the thematics of lovers.

"[Y/N]..." She spoke in a whisper as her hands found their way towards your naked chest. The blonde youth rubs, then kneads your breasts. The deliberate manipulation of her hands earned the other resonance of your voice. Every day, your head is full of the nubile vampire. Everything she did was very frustrating; you wanted her to stop creeping into your heart. Why was she doing this to you? Oh, the lethal effects she had on you...

The blondette decided to trail downward, every kiss that she planted was scorching along the way. With each kiss, you were bound to come undone. With every touch, you felt yourself melting into her fire. Everything about you is now being colored by red; and at that point, you bloomed as her lover. Her kisses and touch became unbearable, which culminated in a celestial release.

"Y-Yang..." You called out to your new (also your first) lover, running your hands through her silky golden locks. The two of you become short of breath, panting with the exertion. Yang rose above you, your figure still enveloped in the cape. The corners of her lips curved upward into a loving smile, knowingly infecting you with her irresistible pulchritude and infectious words. "I love you, [Y/N] [L/N]. I... I love you so much..."

Those endearing words were saving you again from the dark abyss. It feels like you're in heaven, yet the meaning of your happiness wasn't that of your own. Though the definition of this word is essentially thematic, there was no bigger gift than her. She's the cause of your euphoria; she's the one to lead you into paradise; even if she is a monster, you'd love her harder.

You emitted a small whisper, though the blondette was able to catch your words with her advanced aural faculty. "I love you too..." Yang flashed her most winning smile before leaning in to lock her lips with yours, melding you into a soft kiss. Her passion for you was reciprocated, and you held her closer and tighter. Although you were still draped by her black and orange cape, you hadn't felt obstructed nor loathed the feeling.

Instead, you were being filled with the feeling that's known as love. You wanted this dream and feeling to last forever. If she was there with you, then you weren't afraid of anything. Anywhere with her is considered a beautiful dream.

Naturally opening your eyes after the passing hours of slumber, you woke up to be struck by a shaft of sunlight. Your immediate reaction was to shield your eyes, yet you felt a heavy weight around your upper limbs. You glance down to see another pair of pale arms. Recollections of last night had rushed through your mind and you instantly turned around to see if there was a gap between dreams and reality.

Indeed, there was a widening crevice between the two successions. Behind you was a sleeping blondette, the one that made you go absolutely crazy. Even though last night seemed like a dream, you knew it became a reality. Laying next to each other with nothing but blankets to cover yourselves was enough evidence to conclude last night's episode, especially the marks laden with passionate connotations from the lilac-eyed character.

Color bloomed in your cheeks as you recalled the intimacy between you and the vampire. The smile on your face doesn't dissipate due to the thought of being the lover of Yang Xiao Long; however, you pondered about the others, particularly the hammer-meister and scythe prodigy. You did confess about the mutual feelings you had towards them, but you were now contemplating on the inside.

Would it really be okay to hold these types of emotions toward several people? Not only was it confusing, but the strict practice of monogamy was set up by society. Criticism was the least of your worries; if someone were to rudely tell you about what was right and wrong, then you'd nonchalantly just shrug or flip them off. The only thing you were concerned about was the remaining members of Team RWBY and Nora Valkyrie.

During your stay at Beacon Academy, the five individuals along with Yang, Pyrrha, and your two male teammates had the happy knack of making you feel at home. Granting you a sense of belonging, you grew to place the utmost trust in all of them. Not only did they grow to be your friends, but they were also like family. You hadn't forgotten about your first family in Japan, though it was best if they didn't remember you — they've gone through enough traumatic events, and you wished for nothing more than to place back normalcy into their lives.

"What are you thinking about, babe~?" A hoarse whisper travels through your ears. You turn to look back at the vampire, who was now fully awake with a coquettish grin to greet your morning. Your cheeks blossomed in color again, not knowing how to take in the unnatural phenomena. "I-I was just thinking about last night... I didn't think something like that would happen..."

The two of you rise up into a sitting position, the blondette holding you against her exposed chest. "I'm sorry about that... I just couldn't hold it in much longer. My heart already knows what it wants, and I've already made my decision: I'm madly in love with you, [Y/N] [L/N]. It's only been a few months –or maybe less than that, but that doesn't matter– every fiber in my body is telling me that you're the only one for me. Ever since the first day, I immediately knew this feeling wasn't just a school crush — this intense feeling is definitely love."

"Yang..." You placed both of your hands on top of her shoulder blades. Your heart reacts explosively, the pulsation of your hollow organ moved with violent contractions and dilations. You were hoping she didn't hear your quickening heartbeat. The region that was once transparent is now being colored and painted by the visuals of deep red.

"Please... fall in love with me again... Fall for me twice; triple that sensation; and continue to fall deeper until you only think of me... This may be the vampire side of me talking, but my former human self can also relate to this feeling. I just... love you so much... I love you more than you could ever imagine." Yang leans in to rest her forehead on your shoulder, her grip on you becoming tighter as if you'd disappear if she were to ever let you go. "One more time... please say that you love me..."

When you look at her, you become speechless. You've realized the vulnerability of this creature. They were known to be demons, ones that fed on the life force of every Human or Faunus they come across. So, why is she –a being of the night– presenting this vulnerable side of her to you? Does the deliverance of strong and constant affection for that certain someone really impact one as a whole, even if they are monsters in human form?

"I'll always love you, Yang." You whispered, with your hands cupped around her cheeks. Though the feeling of her skin was stone cold, the alternation between the warmth of your touch and the glistening frost on her cheeks had commingled into a harmonious sensation. The fortunate synergism between you and the vampire proved to be the concept of lovers.

You pecked her on the forehead. "I'll be with you forever. Every day, my head is full of you, so you don't have to worry about anything. I was only thinking about Ruby and the others. I mean, how would they react when they find out about us? I just..." Yang touches her finger on your pursed lips to hush you for a slight moment. "Babe, didn't we talk about this? We all agreed to share you as our lover."

"Say what now?" You blinked your eyes nervously. The thought of her teammates and a particular Valkyrie sharing you as a single mate is... very peculiar, to say the least (there's gonna be way more girls in the future chap- ).

Yang lets out a hearty giggle. Delicate and always light on your ears. "Me, Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and many others had a little talk. And all of us consented to be a part of your harem; therefore we're now your official girlfriends!" The blondette simply says with a grin.

As if you'd been slapped across the face, you sat there and listened, mouth agape with shock. "W-What? What do you mean by o-others?" Wondering what you got yourself into, Yang shoots you a knowing wink. "It's exactly as I said, babe. There are many others that'll be joining us very soon.~"

"W-Wait! This can't be--!"

"Oops! Would you look at the time! We should get dressed, so that we make it in time for the Vytal Festival!"

"Yang Xiao Long, don't you dare ignore m--!"

"We're wasting time! Weiss is definitely gonna kill us if we make her wait any longer!"

"ANSWER MY GODDAMN QUESTION, WOMAN!!!"

"The Vytal Festival! Oh, this is absolutely wonderful!" Weiss vocalized with delight, clasping her hands together at the sight of a welcoming banner to Vale. Ruby placed a hand on her hip to slouch on one side, the jovial mood of her glacial teammate induced a sense of disbelief within the red youth. "I don't think I've ever seen you smile this much, Weiss. It's kinda weirding me out..."

The young Schnee turns back with a smile staining her lips. "How could you not smile? A festival dedicated to the cultures of the world! There will be dances, parades, a tournament! Oh, the amount of planning and organization that goes into this event is simply breathtaking!" She smiled in admiration of the upcoming event.

Yang lets out a small sigh, clearly uninterested in the matter. "You really know how to take a good thing and make it sound boring." You gave her shoulder a nudge and shook your head. "Don't be such a killjoy, Yang. Let her do as she pleases." Weiss looks over her shoulder to glare at the blondette, then shifts her gaze to you. The scowl on her face improves into a benign front. "Thank you, [Y/N]."

You decided it wouldn't hurt to tag along with Team RWBY. The rest of your squad were back in Beacon — Jaune had to fill out a book report for Doctor Oobleck; Ren needed to catch up on sleep (blame his childhood friend for that); whereas Pyrrha and Nora stayed back to hone their skills.

"Remind me again why we're spending our Friday afternoon visiting the stupid docks?" Yang frowned, the expression indicated her disapproval on the commercial waterway. Ruby makes a face and quickly pinches her nose to block out the piscine odor. "Ugh, they smell like fish."

The mention of aquatic vertebrates hinted at the twitching black bow, though none of her teammates seem to be paying attention. You were the only one to notice the small detail and stole a glance at the Cat Faunus, who was informing the blondette about Weiss' true intentions on visiting the docks. "She wants to spy on them, so she'll have the upper hand in the tournament."

"Ugh, you can't prove that!"

"Woah." Ruby caught a glimpse of the broken scene. You and the others follow her line of sight, seeing a nearby Dust shop enveloped and covered with barricade tapes. You went towards the hazardous incident with Team RWBY in tow. As you neared the wrecked affair, you and your friends came to a halt, asking one of the detectives about the occurrence.

"Robbery. Second Dust shop to be hit this week. This place is turning into a jungle." The man responds to the question, then walks off to inspect one of the shattered windows. Your blonde lover looks on with a worried frown. "That's terrible."

You were about to say something until another operative on the scene beats you to it. "They left all the money again." A confused expression crossed Ruby's face as she also overheard their conversation. "Yeah, just doesn't make a lick o' sense. Who needs that much Dust?" The man beside him shrugged his shoulders. "I dunno, an army?"

The first detective rotates his wrist along with the gun he was holding. "You thinking the, uh, White Fang?" His coworker brings up a hand to take off his glass spectacles. "Yeah, I'm thinking we don't get paid enough. But I also think it could be those 'monsters' that apparently come out of 'mirrors' or anything that's 'transparent'."

Your eyes gaped open as soon as you heard his sentence. In a series of flashbacks, the early memories of a specific red Fenghuang monster clouded over your vision abruptly. The episode happened over a month ago and as shocked as you were, you didn't want to dwell on the familiarity due to a number of other things piling above it. But this was something you couldn't ignore anymore.

How are they still alive? Why are they here? They should've been--! No... This can't be! As if reversing the winding of a film, you found yourself staring at your past self, who had been severely wounded by Odin and standing on both feet while holding your Advent Decks. No...!

"I wish my enemies and comrades get some normality back into their lives. I don't want them involved with Kamen Riders nor the Mirror World. That is all."

You clearly defined your wish, but it only applied to those that you've met during the time. It affected all of your friends and former nemeses in Japan, but not the entire world including the new domain that you're residing on as of now. And you should've taken extreme caution when you saw Guldthunder. Yet it's already too late — if the Phoenix-like monster is here, then the other inhabitants of the Mirror World found its new hunting ground.

'Not only that, but if Dragreder and Dragblacker are still here with me, then that only means the continuation of a war that I thought had ended... The Rider War... I-It's bound to happen again...'

'You and your red twin have been rather silent. You both knew of this, yet none of you bothered to speak up?!'
