"So," I spoke in a cold tone looking at the two. "What are you expecting to say? Okay, co with ? Yuna, if you knew that I did sothing like that it was for just reason right?"
"Yes…" she said in a ek voice. "Nii-chan, you are scaring …"
"So be it. If this is what it takes for you to turn back on your heel, then I’ll even do it. And Akira," I looked at the noble. "I am pretty sure that I made it clear that you were supposed to keep this from Yuna and not co with her after . Did I say that, yes or not"
"But Kazuki- "
"Was that the answer I was expecting to that question? I just want one word, yes or no," I said.
"Yes, you did make it clear," Akira said.
Sigh, one part of knew sothing like this would happen but I put my trust in Akira that she would put those feelings aside and just listen. Guess I had judged her character a bit differently. Akira wasn’t just soone who would follow orders blindly as she was told but had her own thoughts and feelings about this. As much as it makes happy that it was the case, this was the last thing I wanted to deal with today. At least for this one encounter.
"You disappointed Akira," I said out loud and saw all the colors wash off the noble’s face. "I told you one simple thing to do and you couldn’t even follow that. I don’t know what I should even say about it."
Ama looked at this scene unfold before her and I am surprised she didn’t say sothing yet. She normally would have stepped in for this but it seed like everyone was being a bit wary of . I looked to the side so I could look at my face in the glass and everything made sense.
I had a nasty glare on my face and my eyes were looking bloodshot with rage. Never did I expect that I would be the one to bear such a look on my face. Control your emotions Ethan said. Sigh, I think I can slowly understand better what he is trying to say.
"The only reason I didn’t butt in was because I was tired of saying the sa thing over and over. So it’s better that you take a look at this for yourself," he said and I let out a sigh.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
BAM
I slapped both my hands on my cheek bringing back in the mont. I looked back at everyone and I could see them looking less tense. My eyes locked with Akira and she had an ashad look on her face. I know what she did was just for my security but I cannot put more people I care about in danger. The last ti was enough to show what would happen if I did. The scene of Akira in pain because of the weapon Dominic used, if I didn’t offer up my blood to her, I fear what might have happened.
"Look, all I just want is for you to go back to the house. I will be back by dawn, okay? Then we will talk it out," I said in a calr tone and they did look reluctant to listen.
"I don’t think they will do that Kazu-chan," Ama finally spoke up and placed her hand on my shoulder. "And even if they did right now, who knows they will follow you later so it’s no use."
"But- "
"I know Kazu-chan is worried about them and doesn’t want them to follow you due to the last encounter," Ama spoke my thoughts out as if reading my mind. I looked at her with my eyes widened and she winked at . "I think Akira-chan also understands that."
She looked at Akira and she ekly nodded her head. Even though she knew all this, she decided to not listen to . I guess it is better than them coming out of nowhere in the middle of the mission. At least they had the respect and decency to co here and ask.
"You both…" I looked at them and they couldn’t et eye to eye with . I was really harsh with them.
I went and pulled both of them in a hug. Though a bit surprised, they hugged back and I patted their backs. Really how can I bla them? I am just as wrong as they are in this. I am also soone both of them care about and then I expect them to sit back as I just go into that mission. I am really selfish, aren’t I?
We stayed like that for a bit and I couldn’t help but to think about what was to co after this. I know after this realization I won’t be able to stop them from coming but I also had to make sure that nothing happens to both of them. Being the primary target of Ethan. I can bet my life on the fact that he would want to get out of the group so he can go on a one versus one against .
When that happens, I just need to be strong enough to fend him off for long enough. I know I won’t be able to kill him with how I am. He was strong enough to go up against Natsumi-san who is the strongest amongst everyone I have t and if I can’t even beat Ama yet, I can’t hope to kill Dominic.
Save Ai and get out of there, simple as that.
"You know Kazu-chan, after this mission, you really have a lot of explanation to do to Ai," Ama said and I chuckled a little.
"Well I will take care of that when the ti cos," I said and let go off Akira and Yuna. "And you two, sigh, yes you can co with on this mission."
Their eyes lit up with happiness.
"BUT," I placed my finger before them. "You have to promise that you will not get yourself into too much trouble on your own," I said and they nodded their head. "Okay, ti to leave."
I looked at the sports car that Ama had and it had a place for only two people to sit at the front and it was going to be four of us. I looked at Ama and she chuckled. I went inside and then ca out with another key and pressed it. Another car beeped behind her and it was an SUV with enough space to seat six to seven people.
"And you say you like saving money," I said and Ama shrugged.
"The necessities are important you know Kazu-chan," she said and I rubbed my forehead. Well, anyways that was going to be helpful.
"Kazuki-sama, you know I could have just teleported the three of us to the place. Because we have been there before I rember the exact path to take us to there," Akira spoke I just looked at her dumbfound eyes.
"Oh no you are not," Ama said pulling my and resting the back of my head on her chest. She really enjoys doing this to soone she sees as her little brother. If I ask her if she has a brother complex, I am scared she will even say yes to it in the most convincing way possible and I do not want to play with that fire. "Let the adult take you there."
"You know Akira is way older than you in age," I said.
"My Kazu-chan, you shouldn’t say that about a woman you know? A girl’s heart is fragile," Ama said and I looked at Akira who had a little pout on her face. "See you even made poor Akira-chan sad."
"You say fragile but all the woman who are around have the ability to brutally murder with no evidence left behind so I wouldn’t really call their hearts fragile," I joked and we all laughed at the stupid joke.
We all got into the SUV. Ama on the driver seat, in the passenger and Akira along with Yuna in the back seat. Ama put so light music and started driving at her speed. When I say her speed, I really an her speed. I am surprised how she is not caught by the police daily for over speeding every day.
"Ethan," I called out to the first. "How long before my completely transformation will be done," I asked because I was slowly getting anxious due to the fact that at one point, I will not be human anymore but a vampire. It is not a fact I have opened up about to anyone because first I also wanted to co to terms with it myself.
"About a few more hours," he said.
