Blood Awakening: The Strongest Hybrid and His Vampire Bride

It wasn't like he didn't feel guilt for ruining her life, but he realised it was that or he killed her.

'Well, I even checked if there was a memory-altering drug, but those would make a normal human into an invalid or vegetable.'

Beside his bed, Nikita remained quiet, unlike normal, where she might be loud or make noise. She sat reading a book. The book was titled, 'How to Become the first wife', a marriage book from her mother about dealing with a mistress or second wife.

'This girl... She was clueless about romance a few weeks ago. Now she's reading marriage books and magazines.'

To be honest Nikolai didn't need the other women to tell him what happened. The moment he bit her and began drinking her blood, it felt like instinct. A voice deep inside him asked what he wanted to do with her.

'A thrall...'

'A squire...'

However, he didn't wish to bind her to him or make Sarah his slave like a squire would be. He wanted loyalty but not something that would make her grovel at his feet.

'Thanks to Eliza... if she didn't help me and use more of her limited power...'

[You don't need to thank me... It's okay....]

The voice of Eliza lacked energy. It sounded like his mother in the last years of her life when she became sick and couldn't leave her bed.

In fact, Nikolai understood for a long time why she helped him and that he only rejected his dream because he refused to lose her a second time.

'I will thank you... until I take my last breath, Eliza.'

Nikolai didn't wish to sink into his melancholy thoughts and instead turned his attention to Nikita, the beautiful girl who stood, danced and rushed around his side since he could remember. The years his mother got sick, Nikita was there to comfort him...

"Haa..." With a sigh, he finally began to rub his tired eyes. Despite sleeping, he felt lethargic and a little hungry.

"Mmm? Nikolai, are you awake?"

Nikita's voice was low before it became excited. She tossed her book to the side and dropped onto the floor as she hopped onto the bed and hugged his chest. Honestly, her warmth and the sweet scent of her breath put Nikolai's mind at ease.

"Nn... careful, my chest hurts and I am a little thirsty, can you let me drink?"

'I thought it would be more embarrassing to ask... Somehow, have I changed already?'

Of course, now they were engaged, at least with their parent's permission. The negative opinion of drinking or feeding each other was gone. Nikita's lovely golden eyes shimmered in the moonlight as she looked up at Nikolai, and with a shy nod, her lips pouting while tilting her head to reveal her soft, creamy white neck to him.

"It is okay... I will feed you whenever you want. No matter what, my blood is your blood." Nikita spoke softly as Nikolai hugged her close and buried his mouth into her slender and delicate throat. When he drank her or Selene's blood, everything was different. There was no voice in his head or conflicting feelings...

He just felt at peace, soothed... and addicted to their different flavours.

Her heart raced as she could feel Nikolai's fangs pierce her neck. The small fangs were nothing like when he entered a frenzy, gentle and drinking with elegance and little pain.

Instead, it was hard to contain how pleasant it felt for the female as his black energy began to flow into her blood as if replacing the blood he took from her with superior blood that mimicked her original bloodline and improved it.

This was something that Nikita nor Selene had realised yet, but Eliza had already taught Nikolai.

[Remember, you need to be careful with this method. It will make their blood purer and more powerful, but they will become more desired by the other clans. The scent and aura of one's blood become obvious once your power reaches a certain level...]

'I know, but it benefits me too, so I want to keep doing this...'

Nikolai would benefit because it would enhance his other bloodlines, the Tepes blood making his Báthory bloodline stronger, slowly stealing the abilities and strengths of the Tepes clan, while Nikita's blood would empower him with the Fenrir clan and the Okami clan's abilities.

If he lacked the Evil God's blood that could mimic their bloodlines perfectly, then both of them would grow weak and eventually lose their abilities...

'It's like my existence was created by pure chance and coincidence... the Evil God's blood makes my negative trait that might have killed my lover no longer a danger...'

[Is it a coincidence... or did someone have a hand in this...]

'What do you mean?'

Eliza remained quiet, her voice not even a whisper now, as Nikolai could feel her drifting away. To turn Sarah into a strange Hybrid Squire took far too much of his mother's remaining soul. Now, a slither of light remained in the pendant, and she would soon begin teaching him how to assess people without relying on the pendant's aid.

It seemed her time was ending, yet he refused to accept it in his heart.

"Nnn... Ahhh, Nikolai, mmm..."

Nikita moaned as she trembled, her hands trying to push him away because of the intense pleasure she felt when he purified her blood with his and turned it into a pseudo-god's blood.

"I am almost done." Nikolai whispered in her ear.

"Ahhhh... N... don't... say such... nnn..."

She continued trembling in his arms while her face was red and her breathing heavy as Nikolai held her firm. However, the next moment, the door slammed open, and a furious-looking Selene stood with her arms closed; behind her was Sarah as they both stared at the current scene.

"Do you have no sense of moderation Nikolai Volkov!"

A few moments later, in the living room, Nikolai sat on his own while Nikita, with a small bandage on her neck, sat beside Sarah with a bright smile on her face. It seemed Nikita was happy he drank her blood.

Meanwhile, standing at the centre of the room while pouting with her sharp crimson eyes, gazing at Nikolai, Selene seemed upset. Although she didn't think her feelings were romantic. She felt it unfair that he would bite another woman and not her.

'It's not because I wanted to enjoy that pleasure... or to feel stronger! No....Never.....Hmph...' She thought to herself while enjoying his guilty-looking face watching her.

"So? You called us over to play cards or something?" Nikita said with a sarcastic tone, her nose scrunching up as she pointed at Selene.

"Don't be rude, Nikita..."

"What? This is my home."

"It is my home too!" Selene snapped back before turning to Nikolai. "Y-You! Who is going to marry who again? Who is the wife and who is the mistress?"

It shocked Nikolai that she brought this up because he thought Selene only wanted protection for a year, so why did she care if he was close to Nikita? Who would be with him either way?

"I have no intention of mistreating either of you, so why are you so angry?"

"Muuu... You... That's not the issue. You can't be so nice to everyone, can you? I, the princess of the Tepes clan, the only vampire princess with such pure and desired blood! Yet you drink from a wet dog you found on the street?!"

"Nikolai is kind and loving, hehe~ even a filthy leech that lives in a swamp isn't hated." Nikita threw a pillow at Selene while interjecting with her sly remark.

"Who do you call a leech, you mangy mutt!"

"I am the daughter of a wolf, you stupid bat!"

"I will show you how I will beat you into submission, you rabid beast."

"I will rip your throat out, you spoiled brat!"

"Ahem..." While the two began to brawl, rolling over the back of the sofa, Sarah cleared her throat and moved closer to Nikolai. He felt worried she might blame him or get upset, however her eyes were clear and looked peaceful.

"It's okay, Master," She whispered, her body lowering as she knelt before him, placing her hand across her chest. "I will not blame you for my changes, I do not understand my changes or that I am no longer human. However, the fact you didn't take my life is something I am grateful for. Besides... I am lucky."

'Lucky?' He thought to himself. 'How can Sarah be happy about becoming a hybrid... and his squire?'

"I can still live, and now you wont fire me or abandon me right? Lady Selene told me that it is forbidden for one to completely abandon or toss out their squire. No matter how powerful or pure their bloodline." Sarah spoke with a smile. It felt a little forceful, but the way it changed into a sly, cheeky look made Nikolai's guilt lessen; he swore he would tell her everything soon.

"Understood, then I'm stuck with you for now. I will make sure to tell you everything, soon. Can you give me time to prepare?" Nikolai asked while watching Nikita mount Selene and punch her face, only the small blood barriers shattering, keeping her from smashing her face in.

"However, Sarah... Will you still help me, with my dream?"

"That is my job, I am your Squire, so please inform me when you need me."

"Haha... then, will you move in this apartment so you are safe?"

"Of course!"

Sarah showed a bright smile for the first time since he saw her. It made Nikolai's lips curl into a grin at the same time, only for him to notice a heavy and fiery aura from above the sofa.

He turned and saw both Selene and Nikita's eyes peeking from the top and watching him speak with Sarah.

'Ah... how troublesome is polygamy!'
