Two months later, it was late at night and i and mom were out of the house just walking around with dad. While walking we saw a figure standing in the dark staring at us. He had long white hair tied behind his head and he wore an embroidered white coat.
Seeing him, dad's feet stopped and I and mom just looked at him. His vampire teeth were showing and his nails were protruding out sharp as a knife.
"Now, this is not how you greet your father Mateo," the figure said. "Don't you rember? I was the one who turned you."
"What are you doing here Dominic? I thought you were in Ro taking care of your business there," dad said and stood before us.
"You are a family man now I see but I am seriously disappointed in you. Marrying a human? You do know what the consequences of that are and on top of that you have a daughter," he said.
"Leave them out of this!!" Dad shouted at him and leaped at him.
He moved so fast that I could not track him and then I felt sothing warm fall on my face. It tasted sweet for so reason and I looked up as my eyes widened.
"MOM!!" I shouted seeing my mother who had a hand piercing through her chest. The man nad Dominic took out his arm from mom's chest and she fell down. "Mom, mom! Hang on!"
"Ahh, now I see why you chose her Mateo, her blood is rather exquisite," he said as he licked his hand with blood on it.
"You bastard!" Dad shouted and jumped at him again but was sent back flying with a kick on his chest.
"Don't think that I am enjoying this Mateo. I hate this, I really do. I thought of you as my own son but a son is supposed to be obedient to his father. If he is not, then he should be punished. Oh, how cruel this fate is to make do such a thing to my own son. May the Almighty father forgive for the sins I am about to commit," he said raising his hands in a dramatic way. "If only, if only, if only you did not plan to marry a human and have a successor, things would not have co this way. It is your fault for making a half-vampire. A freak of nature."
"Don't you dare call my daughter that you fucker!"
Dad leaped at the man yet again and I looked at mom who had stopped breathing. Her heart was not beating and I didn't know what to do. Today was supposed to be my birthday so why is this happening now. No, it is all my fault, isn't it? I heard what the man said.
If only I was never born.
Mom would have lived.
"Ai! Watch out!" Dad shouted and I ca back to my senses.
I felt an intense killing intent being directed at . I looked up and the man was standing there smiling sadistically. He plunged his hand through and I closed my eyes. I felt a sharp pain in my stomach and blood was pouring out.
But, my blood was not the only one that was pouring out.
Dad stood there, in front of and the man's arm went through his chest too and stabbed . I scread in pain holding my stomach as the man took his arm out. My feet were no longer on the ground and I felt a cold wind slapping my face. I looked up and dad was holding and jumping over buildings.
"Ai listen to ," he said as I saw so blood in his mouth. "I need you to listen to and do as I say. If not, your life will be in danger."
His voice was pained he was serious. I had never seen him this serious in his life and I felt another feeling on my leg and I looked down. Dad had picked up in one hand and in his other hand was mom's dead body.
"Dad, was it my fault?" I asked as tears were welling up in my eyes. "Did mom die because of ? Because I was bo-"
"Don't you dare say that!" he shouted while jumping wincing in pain. He did not have enough blood today and his wound was regenerating a lot slower. "Ai, you were the best thing that happened to us. There is no way it is your fault. I will happily die if it ans that you are safe so listen to now. Take this key and go to the place written on the keychain and once you reach there, no matter what. Don't invite anyone in that house. Absolutely no one, you hear ?"
"B-but what about you?"
"Don't worry about Ai. Save yourself and that is enough for us," he said and then looked back. "Shit, he is back. Please go Ai and save yourself."
He stopped on the rooftop of a building and put down standing before and mom's body was behind him. I looked at him ready to charge at the man.
"D-dad no! I can't! Please co with and mom," I said to him but he did not look at .
"Ai please leave!" he said and turned around looking at . "We love you Ai."
With that, he rushed at the man and punched him only for the man to dodge it. I was too scared and I did not move. I had no idea what I was supposed to do. Tears were coming from my eyes and I looked at mom and then back towards dad.
"Leave now!" he shouted his head was then cut off right after.
"NOOOOOO!!!"
The man looked at and I grit my teeth and started running. I looked behind one last ti but I saw dad's headless holding the man's legs and he was stomping him on his chest again and again.
With tears still falling down my eyes, I looked kept running. I looked at the key dad gave and saw the address, it was the house we were about to move into. I knew the way there but the only problem was my injury, it was still hurting and not regenerating the way it should have. My leg slipped and I fell down from a building. My back hit the cold ground and I could feel the entire pain surging through my body.
It hurts, it hurts so much that I did not want to move anymore. Mom was dead and dad is fighting that man, what will I do without them? How will even survive?
"What was that sound?" I heard a familiar voice coming from my right.
My vision was a bit blurry and the voice sounded muffled but I could tell who it was. A bundle of black ssy hair was looking at . His baby blue eyes were shining in the darkness and they widened seeing .
"Ai! What happened!" he said picking up. He looked at my wound and panicked thinking about what to do. He took out a handkerchief and placed it on the wound trying to stop the bleeding as I winced in pain.
"Kazu-kun?" I said looking at him and my eyes widened. "Don't co near !"
With the sudden shot of adrenaline in my body, I jumped back and got on my feet but soon after fell down. Kazu-kun ran towards .
"I said don't co near !" I shouted at him but he did not listen to . "D-don't do this or I might get you killed too."
"Why would you do that Ai? On second thought, stop talking, you are hurt."
While he was trying to stop my bleeding, his scarf fell down and I saw his slender neck and gulped. My right eyes started glowing as I felt my bloodlust increasing seeing him. I tried my hardest to hold myself back but he leaned down and his neck ca even closer to my face.
"Kazu...kun...."
"I said stop talking, I need to call soone but there is no one around."
"Kazu-kun...give ..."
"What? What do you want Ai?" he said looking at and his eyes widened seeing my vampire teeth which were showing.
"Give your blood!!"
As I growled, I held his shoulders and pushed him down. His back hit the ground really hard and I saw him wincing in pain. I could not be able to hold myself back anymore and I wanted to bite his neck and suck his blood. I could sll the extrely sweet sll coming from his blood.
Oh no, he knows what I am.
Looks like I can never see him again.
"You see what I am!" I growled at him. "I am a vampire. I drink human blood and now I will do it to you to satisfy my bloodlust!"
I said that and intentionally loosened my grip so he could push off and run away. I wanted him to do that and no matter what I wanted him to stay out of this ss. I expected him to push off and run away. Even if it was for the best, he would be safe.
But...
"You want it to heal your wounds right?" he said softly and then pulled his sweater's collar showing his neck. "Co and drink as much as you want to."
I was surprised. How can he be so stupid? I just told him I am a vampire. I knew he knows what vampires were since we saw that movie once when he ca to visit again at my house since I normally don't co to play out due to mom's job.
"W-why?" my voice cracked.
"Because your grip loosened on my shoulder and what you just said while pushing down sounded forced and so unnatural for you Ai," he said softly and then held my head and pressed it down towards his neck. "I know you want to run but what kind of friend will I be if I cannot help my friend?"
I felt tears welling up in my eyes. No, I am not worth it. It is all my fault because I was born. Because of this, mom and dad...
"It is not your fault Ai," Kazu-kun said. "Just drink my blood already because I am out here without telling mom and if I don't get ho quickly, she will kill ."
Not able to hold it back any longer, I bit his neck and he winced in pain. When I drink the blood of a human I can tell what kind of person the person was but it does not work on vampires. I got to know Kazu-kun more and there was nothing different. What I got to know was sothing I already did.
He was kind, really kind, and loyal to the people he cared about. His blood tasted really good that I could drink it for my entire life and still not get bored of its taste. This was how Kazu-kun tasted. My wound also started healing at an abnormal pace which never happened before and that was when I saw it. The person residing in him.
The first.
A big man with a golden yellow beard and a pale face. I heard dad tell about him and he fits the entire description perfectly. But why was he here?
"You know what girl, I like you. You are perfect to be with the boy. Hahahaha," he said and my vision ca back.
I could feel Kazu-kun breathing heavily and he had wrapped his arms around my back. My wound healed and I looked at him. His face was red and I bit my lip and poured my blood over the bite mark and healed it. That was the last ti I talked to him directly.
"Ai, just how long will you take in the bath?" Kazu-kun's voice brought back to my senses and I did not realize that I was in the bath for too long.
"C-coming."
I got out of the bath and dried myself. I looked at myself in the mirror and I saw tears coming out of my eyes. I miss them, I still do. I miss mom and dad a lot. I want them to co back to but I know it is not possible. It was too late for that and that Dominic bastard is still alive.
Clearing those thoughts from my mind and wiping my tears, I wore my clothes and set my hair. Getting out, a sweet sll tingled my nose. It was really nostalgic and familiar.
"Pancakes?" I blurted out.
"Looks like nothing hides from your nose, yes those are pancakes."
I walked over to the dining table and my eyes widened seeing the pancakes. They were the sa pancakes that dad used to make. They looked exactly the sa and slt the sa.
I sat down at the table with Kazu-kun sitting opposite to and I cut a piece from the pancake and put it in my mouth. Closing my eyes and softly chewing the pancakes I could feel my eyes getting wet as so tears ca out of my eyes.
"Ai, are you alright? Do the pancakes taste that bad?" I heard Kazu-kun say worriedly.
"No, they are really good..." I said. "They just taste like how dad used to make it."
"I-I see."
We ate the breakfast in peace and once done with that, Kazu-kun picked up the plates and stood to wash them. I just sat there looked at him washing the dish. His back looked a little broader and I could see that his muscles looked more defined for so reason but I did not say anything. Kazu-kun right now was not different from Kazu-kun back then. He was just the sa and I owe him my life too. If it was not for his blood, I would have been caught by Dominic and would be killed.
I walked over to him and hugged him from the back. I felt his arms stop in his place and I buried my face in his back.
"What happened Ai?" he asked .
"Nothing...just felt like hugging you," I whispered softly.
I felt his warmth on my body and I loved it. I loved this warmth so much.
"I love you so much Kazu-kun."
"I know."
