Atlas looked at the vampire walking down the aisle to the stairs of the throne. He was tall and the most handso man Atlas had ever seen. Yuning had Viking gold hair and his crescent moon eyebrows were thin and narrow.
He carried an imperious nose well and his angular cheekbones carved down towards a flinty jaw. He had enchanting azure eyes. They shone brightly like two sapphires dipped in milky pools.
Even the way he walked was beautiful, he glided with an athletic grace that made it hard not to look at him. He had a dark three-piece suit and his hands were in his pockets.
He looked effortlessly elegant. Atlas looked at his eyes and understood why everyone feared him. The Emperor of the vampire is seen as cold and ruthless but they all know that he loves his people.
The only person he seems to show emotion to are Yawen and Tan. Tan is the youngest of the Song family. He is ten years old and the emperor adores him. Atlas saw in Versem that it’s the only person Yuning cares about in the family.
Seeing how the two are close Tan took on Yuning’s personality so everyone fears this ten-year-old too. Atlas founds it funny. Atlas’ eyes never left Yuning as he sat on the throne.
He finds it bizarre that he feels a physical attraction to him. He looks like this pure angel when he is more like the devil. He’s usually attracted to dark, handso, and dangerous n.
Why do you think he fell for Er-Ge? But when you look at Yuning you can’t help but think that he looks nice and sweet just like Yawen. He hates people like that since they were the ones who would usually make his lives a living hell.
But it seems like Yuning is the exception. He wants to swim in those srizing azure eyes. It’s a good thing since he decided that he would take him away from Yawen.
Yuning looked at the hall but couldn’t see Tan. Where is that little terror? He looked down and t green eyes. He was surprised to see that the offering was so calm and collected.
Usually, the offering was so excited that they couldn’t stand still. He stopped counting how many tis they would pass out during the introduction ceremony. He listened to his heartbeat and saw that it was beating at a regular pace.
He volunteered yet he doesn’t seem to care. Atlas looked behind him at Xinzhi. XInzhi looked at Atlas and felt his heart clench when he saw his teary eyes. Atlas turned around and looked down.
Yuning looked between Xinzhi and Atlas then listened to his heartbeat. Xinzhi’s heartbeat was fast. He looked at Yawen and smiled at him. Yawen smiled back. He’s glad that this is the last year of this tradition.
Despite what people think he never cared for it, he was already planning on abolishing it so when Yawen implied that it was in the way of their relationship he said that he would do it for him.
He feels like he’ll never et soone who would be able to make him feel as much as Yawen does. He loves how pure and sweet he is.
He isn’t a nice guy, that’s what his mother would always tell him but he feels like if he is with soone like Yawen he would beco the person she believed he could be. That’s why he didn’t mind taking it slow and being friends.
His mother always believed that no matter how cold he is he would find soone who would warm him and break his walls.
Yawen is the most likely and he does have feelings for him and he believes it’s a good start. Once they spend ti together in a nonprofessional manner he’ll fall for him he’s sure of it.
Seeing that Tan was still not here he decided to start the ceremony since the live feed had already started. He looked at the room and said:
"Welco to the 476 and last offering ceremony."
Everyone clapped in excitent. They are all disappointed that the tradition of the offering is over but they hope that this year’s offering month will be the most sensational. Yuning smiled and he looked like a prince charming.
Atlas wondered how can this man look so pure. And why does he want to roll under the sheets with him? He shook his head, whatever he’ll have fun with him and infuriate Yawen before he kills him.
Yuning looked at Atlas and ordered:
"Take off the mask."
Atlas looked at him for a few seconds then down and untied the mask.
After the mask was off he kept looking down. Everyone at ho and in the hall wanted to scream look up! Yuning waved his hand and Atlas felt his head being lifted.
Every vampire has a gift and Yuning’s is telekinesis. Yuning looked at the offering and captivating turquoise green eyes looked back at him.
He had crescent mooned-shaped eyebrows and an aquiline nose. He possessed defined cheekbones and wavy dark hair. Yuning felt like he wasn’t looking at a human but a fairy.
When the cara panned on Atlas people couldn’t stop themselves from exclaiming. They’ve never t such a lovely offering before. They weren’t ugly of course but they couldn’t be compared to this one.
Zidong looked at the screen behind his brother that showed what the cara was filming since Atlas had his back to them and felt his heartbeat quicken. Never did he want an offering as much as he did Atlas.
He looked at his twin to make sure he was to his taste too and as soon as he saw Chen’s obsessed eyes he knew he liked him as well. He nudged him and Chen looked at him with a grin.
Atlas looked at Yuning then down. Yuning waved his hand and his head was lifted again. Atlas was about to narrow his eyes but stopped himself. He doesn’t want to stay here forever being looked at by perverts.
Yawen looked around the hall and frowned. The way they all looked at Atlas was like he was the yellow Deity. Why is he even surprised? It was the sa with his mother and then his brother.
His mother spent all her ti with him and when she wasn’t she kept talking about how smart and incredible Atlas is. When she died he thought he would finally be able to get rid of him but Xinzhi wanted to finish the experint.
He’s incredibly happy that he’ll die in a month but he hates that he’ll beco a celebrity during that ti. He looked at the twins and saw that they were practically drooling.
What is he even talking about? Atlas will go through hell here. He spent his entire life underground he knows nothing of the world let alone vampires. He knows full well what goes down in the imperial palace with the offering. Atlas will go crazy.
Thinking about it he couldn’t stop himself from smiling. Everyone turned around when they heard:
"Brother you started without ?"
Yuning smiled and said:
"You knew when the ceremony was about to start. Where were you?"
As Tan walked to the throne he said with a malicious smile:
"I was dealing with a defiant servant."
Atlas’s eyes flashed in amusent and he couldn’t stop himself from smiling. That kid is truly like Yuning. Tan had the sa blond hair and blue eyes. He just looked to be 15 years younger than Yuning.
Still a ten years old who deals with a servant is pretty funny. He doesn’t even care that he is fild live.
Tan looked at the offering as he walked up the stairs. He fell into a daze. Tan felt like he was looking at a fairy the kind he would see in his books when he was younger.
He stopped and asked haughtily:
"You’re the offering?"
Atlas smiled and answered:
"I am."
Tan looked at his smile and his cheeks reddened. Atlas reached out and caressed his head with a gentle smile. Tan blushed deeper and froze not sure what he should do.
He’s a prince no one has ever touched him so familiarly except Yuning. He’s the only person he can stand so of course he won’t allow anyone to get close to him.
But seeing the sweet smile on the offering’s face he didn’t mind. Atlas’s eyes twinkled in amusent. Seems like the little devil isn’t as devilish as he pretends to be.
He pulled back his hand and asked:
"I’m Atlas. What’s your na?"
Tan asked surprised despite feeling his cheeks warming:
"You don’t know my na?"
Atlas shook his head and everyone felt shocked whether at ho or the imperial palace. Tan pointed at Yuning and asked:
"Do you know his na?"
Atlas quickly glanced at Yuning then at Tan and answered:
"I don’t."
Yuning looked at Atlas expressionlessly but he was stunned like everyone else. His face is everywhere he has more fans than he wishes. Humans see them as celebrities which is ridiculous. If they were smart they would see them as hunters.
Yawen looked at Xinzhi accusatorily but he shook his head. He told Atlas about all of this but he was crying a lot about leaving him so he probably forgot.
Atlas asked again:
"What’s your na?"
Tan answered:
"I’m Song Tan."
Atlas caressed his cheeks and said with a gentle smile:
"You’re very cute Song Tan."
Everyone watching knew at that mont that Atlas truly didn’t know about the imperial Song family or he wouldn’t say that of Tan.
Tan froze and his heartbeat quickened. He felt slightly panicky not sure how to react. He pushed Atlas’ hand and ran to his brother and sat on his lap.
He hugged him like Atlas was trying to get him. Yuning held him and his eyes flickered in amusent. Atlas couldn’t stop himself from laughing.
Everyone was enchanted hearing his lodious laugh. Atlas stood up and walked to him. He caressed his head and asked sadly:
"Am I that scary?"
Tan buried his red face in Yuning’s chest. Is Atlas trying to humiliate him? When he saw his eyes flashing with amusent he knew that he was teasing him.
It felt weird, no one dares to approach him let alone play with him but Atlas doesn’t fear him.
Tan pulled back and looked at Atlas. He shook his head and Atlas’ eyes softened. That kid is too cute, how are people afraid of him it makes no sense. Yuning looked at Atlas.
He asked:
"Do you know why you are here?"
The fact that he knows nothing about their family leads him to know that he’s been closed off from the world for so reason. Everyone listened to see if he did.
Atlas’s eyes moistened and he swallowed with difficulty. The bright smile he had a few seconds before was nowhere to be seen. Atlas murmured:
"To die."
Tan frowned. Yuning looked at Atlas expressionlessly.
"The offering is celebrated the month leading up to the sacrifice. You’ll reside in the palace and every one of your needs will be t you only need to ask. My butler will lead you to your chambers. You can rest before tonight’s banquet. Everything you need has already been brought to your chambers. Give a list of what you need to my butler and it will be taken care of."
Atlas nodded. Yuning looked at his butler and he said to Atlas:
"Please follow ."
Atlas followed him but then turned around.
He looked at Tan and asked:
"Will you be at the banquet?"
Tan was surprised but he nodded. Atlas smiled and said:
"Good I’ll see you later then."
Tan nodded and his eyes shone in excitent as he watched Atlas leave. Yuning looked at his little brother and smiled. He knows that despite what people think Tan feels lonely.
Everyone fears him and he doesn’t have friends since he doesn’t have the sa agenda as other people. It makes him happy to see him this excited to make a connexion with soone else.
Yawen looked at that brat Tan then at Yuning. He doesn’t like this, it will only make things worst if Atlas gets along with them.
He knows that Yuning won’t stop Tan from being friends with Atlas since he’s the only person he loves but he needs to make sure they don’t beco close.
He always knew that he had to get along with that spoiled brat to be able to be with Yuning and it took him more than a year to earn a hello and a conversation but it took Atlas only a few seconds.
Yawen’s hands tightened into fists, it isn’t enough that he’ll die he needs to make his life even more hellish.
