“Xia Lun……”
“What is it?”
Xia Lun shifted his position slightly on the bed, making sure he wasn’t lying on Aina’s hair.
“Don’t just lie there. Get up. I want……”
Aina parted her lips slightly, her breath as soft as orchid, small white canine teeth glistening with a thin thread of saliva.
Her fingers spread wide across Xia Lun’s back, nails lightly raking across the skin, leaving fleeting red marks before fading. Then Aina tilted her head up and sank her fangs into the vein on his neck.
Xia Lun could feel the slight resistance as her teeth pierced his skin, followed by the strange pulling sensation and pleasure of blood being drawn out.
“Gulp—gulp——”
Xia Lun turned his head slightly, holding still obediently, letting the woman in his arms drink his blood without moving.
Their breaths intermingled. Xia Lun could feel Aina’s throat trembling lightly with each swallow. Her body pressed against his, cooler than an ordinary person’s, yet at this moment it felt especially warm.
His right hand gently stroked her silver hair, signaling her to take it slow—no one was going to fight her for it.
“Ha——” Aina pulled away, licking the wound she had just made with a tender touch, then wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand, squinting in bliss. “It’s truly intoxicating.”
“Had your fill?” Xia Lun asked softly.
“More than enough.” Aina wrapped herself around Xia Lun’s waist, clinging to him. “After you absorbed all that mana from Mian, the taste of your blood is a little different now.”
“Oh?” Xia Lun raised an eyebrow. “Turned worse?”
“Not at all. It’s just got a higher mana density. If I had to describe it… It’s like adding half a cube of sugar to the milk you usually drink.” Aina shook her head, swaying as she hung off him. “Still quite delicious.”
“Is that so?” Xia Lun looked thoughtful, his fingertips tracing idle circles on her back.
“What are you thinking about again?” Aina’s powerful legs clamped around Xia Lun’s waist, locking her in place as she tilted her head and looked at him.
“So the taste of blood varies under different circumstances……” Xia Lun pinched Aina’s chin. “Want to try a different flavor?”
“What flavor?”
“Like, after I work out—would the blood taste richer?” Xia Lun offered as an example.
Aina stuck out her pink little tongue. “I feel like it’d have a sour sweat aftertaste.”
“Then what if I ice it down first?” Xia Lun suggested again.
Aina raised a pretty brow. “I don’t really like cold drinks.”
“Then……”
“Xia Lun.”
Aina cut him off, holding his face in both hands, her dark red eyes reflecting his image. “You’re already delicious just like this. You don’t need to change anything.”
Being described as delicious by Aina… Xia Lun didn’t find it strange at all. Instead, a peculiar sense of satisfaction spread through his chest.
“Really that delicious?” Xia Lun asked again, his tone carrying a hint of worry.
After all, Aina would never drink anyone else’s blood.
More precisely, she had only ever drunk his. It wasn’t until she met Xia Lun that she first awakened her blood-drinking urge.
And after tasting Xia Lun’s blood… she had lost all interest in anyone else’s.
Of course, for an existence like Aina, who surpassed even the origin progenitors, the thirst could easily be suppressed… but she had no desire to hold back.
As her sole blood source, Xia Lun felt that his quality and flavor still mattered quite a bit.
“Really, truly delicious.” Aina said with absolute certainty. “Would I lie to you? Xia Lun.”
Xia Lun nodded. Aina indeed never lied to him.
“Besides, your blood isn’t the only thing that’s delicious……” The look in Aina’s eyes gradually burned with a flaming desire.
With a subtle shift of her body, she tilted her neck backward, high and proud, and the sound of air splitting rang out—the Demon Queen unfurled the scarlet bat wings behind her.
……
“Xia Lun! Aina! I’m back!”
Liyana bounded into the room with a bright, beaming smile.
“Guess what I brought you?”
Ruiwen was dragged in, bound hand and foot, tossed onto the floor like a lifeless sack.
Last night, Liyana and the others had tactfully stayed away, spending the night at Mr. Ladi’s place. Clearly, she hadn’t been idle.
Ruiwen’s face was ashen, his eyes dull and lifeless. No flowers or vines had been planted on him—Liyana wouldn’t really do something like that in front of Mo Lini. But his mental state was clearly on the verge of collapse, his clothes disheveled, his face bearing traces of grime.
“I already interrogated him. His boss is some guy named Aolei. All these half-bloods basically answer to this Aolei.” Liyana posed happily, hands on her hips, waiting for praise.
“Good work. Thanks.” Xia Lun expressed his gratitude.
“No trouble at all, hehe.” Liyana looked invigorated, despite having pulled an all-nighter.
“Aolei, huh?”
Aina fell into a brief contemplative silence.
She… still hadn’t heard of that name.
Which meant, as far as Aina was concerned, this Aolei was still a nobody—an insignificant character of some sort.
“I understand. Thank you, Liyana. That’s a big help.” Aina didn’t want to dampen Liyana’s enthusiasm.
Then, Aina closed her eyes slowly, her long lashes casting a thin shadow on her cheeks.
After a moment, she opened her eyes again, a faint crimson glint flashing in them.
“I see… He belongs to a vassal house under the Yuelai Family.”
“Uh, Yuelai Family… which one is that?” Xia Lun had never even heard of it. He had never cared much about the tangled web of vampire family relations. Aina rarely brought up such matters with him.
“The Yuelai Family… should now fall under Niya’s jurisdiction.” Aina explained.
Xia Lun nodded. Finally, a name he recognized.
Vampire politics certainly ran in circles within circles.
Aina turned her gaze toward Ruiwen, a trace of barely concealed disgust flickering in her eyes.
As a human, he should have died long ago, not continue to exist in this form, half-alive. The mere existence of half-bloods like him was a desecration of pure vampire bloodlines.
Aina reached out slowly, and Ruiwen’s memories were drawn out from his mind, replaying before her like slides on a projection.
“I feel like I wasted my whole night.” Liyana muttered at the sight, pursing her lips in a pout.
“Sure, you wasted it, but you also didn’t get any sleep.” Mo Lini patted Liyana on the shoulder.
“And that’s supposed to be a good thing?” Liyana widened her eyes.
Mo Lini: “I slept very well last night… For me, that’s a good thing.”
