Blood Awakening: The Strongest Hybrid and His Vampire Bride

A few hours passed, with Nikolai and the two women falling asleep in the garden, Leona and the other maids quickly covered them with a blanket and observed to avoid any issues with Nikita’s current state.

However, a few minutes later, after training with Nagisa and the Fenrir clan, Risa and Kumiko returned to the mansion. While walking down the path, they noticed Nikolai, Selene, and Nikita sleeping together.

”Oh? Our beloved man is sleeping so peacefully. How cute.” Risa’s pace increased, running towards their group.

”Risa~ don’t disturb them, Nikolai rarely gets a chance to rest.” Kumiko’s black and white kimono with pink flowers was a gift from Nagisa who treated her like a daughter. Though Kumiko knew it was to have her treat Nikita better, she didn’t mind.

’I want to get along with my first friends, and Nikolai too.’

Because of that, Kumiko’s body split into four as her clones darted forward and grabbed Risa who was running towards them. ”Argh… stop! Help~ I’m being attacked.” Before dragging her to the ground.

”Behave, Risa, look at his face.” Kumiko’s tone became stern as she gazed at Nikolai, her golden eyes narrowing into a delighted crescent shape, her body inching closer to him.

”Kumiko? You’re doing the same as me.”

Risa complained, watching Kumiko standing behind Nikolai, her nose flicking as she sniffed his neck, causing a massive smile to form on her lips.

”Ack, this girl became a pervert after one night together.” Risa tried to push off the ground, but the clones held her tight, each of them smirking at Risa wickedly, causing her to become frustrated.

’This damn fox, look at her horny face!’

Kumiko’s sharp eyes flicked back to Risa as she pressed a finger to her lips, squishing them. ”Shh.”

’Tsk, she never shows this side to the others!’

Risa’s pleading eyes searched for an ally, but even the maids and Leona turned away, as if they didn’t wish to get involved. Truthfully, Risa wasn’t that bothered. Rather, she acted this way so Kumiko wouldn’t become shy again and hold back.

The two of them became friends first, and Risa understood Kumiko as well as she understood Risa, allowing them to bring out the best in each other.

’I’ve also seen the effects of Kumiko’s illness.’ Risa’s mind returned to the past when they started speaking and getting to know each other, and she saw Kumiko vomiting blood and enduring a seizure several times.

”A body that cannot accept divine blood…”

This illness was something that currently only Risa and Ivan knew the details about.

Although Nikolai and the others read the message saying her bloodline was divine and came with complications. Kumiko feared if they learned about her body being unable to endure the divine blood from her bloodline might make them discard her.

’Silly girl, from the moment you slept with him… that illness became doomed.’

Risa planned to bring the subject forward subtly because, by that time, she knew that connection to Nikolai would help her body change.

’Just like me, you will smile without worrying. Nikolai will save you, I am sure of it.’

She already transformed after Nikolai’s help, and that was before they slept together regularly. Risa noticed that coming into close contact, and doing those acts would strengthen her body, tone her muscles and help her grow stronger if she trained the next day.

”Oh? Nikolai’s breathing changed, he’s awake.”

The moment Kumiko’s clones heard her words, she jittered. With her nose touching his neck, she noticed his eyes peeking at her with a faint smile on his lips.

”Good morning, my little fox.”

”Ah~ Nikolai, hello.” Kumiko flashed a nervous but lovely smile.

”Nn… Nikolai?”

”Mmm, more sleep.”

Selene and Nikita also woke up after hearing Nikolai’s voice, as if he was their universal alarm clock.

”How are you two feeling, and where’s Leona?” Nikolai scanned his surroundings, noticing the maids vanished, but somehow after that brief nap his entire body felt energised. His lips looked juicy and full, his skin smooth and glossy.

”Ah, Nikolai, the maid is over there.” Kumiko pointed to the maids staying out of sight while completing mundane tasks and keeping the area quiet.

Risa finally escaped the clones of Kumiko when she became fixated on Nikolai. ”Hey, what are we going to do next?”

”Well… let’s go back inside the mansion and take it from there.” As if being summoned like magic, Leona re-appeared with her maids.

Her usual smirk and beautiful figure attracted Nikolai, along with Risa and Kumiko’s attention. They both felt jealous seeing beautiful mature women since they had yet to bloom properly to reach her level.

”Sure, I’ll carry you, Nikita, come.” Nikolai spread his arms, remembering his fathers’ advice to try to make the women feel special as much as possible.

’Yes!’ Nikita slipped into his embrace, hugging his neck with a bright smile, peeking at Kumiko and Selene before pulling out her tongue. ”Hehe~ I love your hugs the most, they are so warm!”

Risa pouted as the two of them started walking away, and her hand grasped his shirt as he turned back and winked at her. His eyes held a profound, mysterious, but seductive hue. Elizabeth’s lips curled into a smile as she muttered to herself.

[Even more dangerous than Ivan’s.]

This time, Nikolai was the one to lift his tongue, playfully imitating Nikita’s previous action, which caused Risa and Kumiko to giggle. The girls skipped behind him with delighted faces.

Meanwhile, Selene remained calm and elegant, walking beside Nikolai. She then gently wrapped his elbow, ignoring Nikita, who tried to kick her.

”Let’s go inside. I have something to share with everyone.” Nikolai wanted to tell them about his deal with Ryan and reveal his plans to them, and ask for their input and support.

Inside the mansion, the maids served an array of coffee and tea, with Nikita drinking a fruit cocktail made of pure fruit juices. This made Nikolai amazed that pregnant vampires and werewolves would eat human food, high in vitamins and minerals for the babies inside their stomach.

Rather than their usual diet of blood, they would gain the needed blood from a medium rare steak instead.

’Somehow it feels like the baseline of existence is still humans.’

Nikolai’s eyes gazed at the beautiful women who loved and followed him, whether Kumiko who gave him a sense of purity and gentle affection like silk.

Risa’s intense and high-speed love was like a car racing down a road, with no roof, exhilarating and dangerous. Selene recently changed, a slightly obsessive but traditional style bride, her calm eyes checking to see if he required anything, while Nikita’s love was warm, like a soft blanket that you would cuddle in during the cold.

Each was special, each a part of his world. This wasn’t something he would allow anyone to take or to change. The thought of them not being with him brought intense anger to the surface and a sign of his own obsession and love taking shape.

”It’s great to see you all here, I apologise for vanishing for two days, did you all worry?” Nikolai asked while eating a soft peach coated in condensed milk. His words caused the girls’ bodies to tense, but they remained elegant and graceful in their seating.

’Ah~ he looks so hot eating that peach, please eat my peach that delicately~ baby.’

’I’ll be fine, you actually remembered to apologise. Should I reward him tonight?’

’Hehe~ Nikolai is smiling at me.’

’Nikolai doesn’t need to apologise, but I am happy he treats me like the others.’

The thoughts of the women seemed to contain similar feelings, as Risa’s thoughts became racy. Selene wanted to reward him. Nikita just enjoyed his affectionate stare and smile, and Kumiko, ever happy to be included in his heart.

”Since you all look at me with those cute smiles, I cannot help but feel happy.” Nikola finished his peaches, with a slightly vulgar slurp, then got down to business.

”Well, you might be wondering why I called a meeting.”

”Yes.”

”Honestly, I was wondering where you were, and I hoped you weren’t hurt.” The other girls looked at Kumiko before turning back to Nikolai with a nod.

”Haha, sorry, I was with my father. I already told Selene and Nikita, but there are some things about the Nexus we are looking into, once the information is confirmed or more detailed I will share it. But today. I am asking if you’ll let me do something dangerous.”

”Eh?” Kumiko gasped, a worried expression filling her face.

”Nikolai… don’t get hurt.”

Nikita followed, but Selene and Risa didn’t speak. Instead, their heads flicked, motioning him to continue.

”You all know about Ryan, my friend who is a member of the SSS, he asked me to help him take out another Fiend Nest.”

”NO! HIS FATHER!” Selene slammed the table, her eyes glowing bright red, as the tips of her hair turned red, flickering with blood coloured embers.

”What? What’s going on?” Kumiko also became agitated, and Nikolai quickly grabbed her shoulder to comfort her, but Selene continued.

”Tell me I’m wrong, please?” Selene continued.

”Ryan isn’t his father, although that old bastard Jin tried to kill me. I need further information and the SSS is the only way I can get it, otherwise this city, even the world, might be in danger.”

”But—”

”Please trust me. If something goes bad. I will tell you where and what we are fighting, and won’t complain if you bring thralls from your family, same to you Nikita. I plan to have the maids from the mansion also join you in case something happens.”

Selene’s eyes widened, shocked at Nikolai’s growth and changes. Her lips trembled as she hugged his chest tightly, muttering to him in a weak voice. ”Then… you cannot get hurt, absolutely!”

Nikolai couldn’t help but embrace her tight, feeling Selene’s intense worry and affection, while the worried gaze of Nikita and Kumiko felt similar. They would rather not limit him, but their wet eyes close to tears and clenched hands made him feel at ease.

Risa looked relaxed because she knew she would join him.

Kumiko then stood up, seeming to break from her previous mould, the seductive kitsune’s nine tails flicking the air.

”Please, tell us what your plan is first, otherwise… I cannot accept you going without me!”

She wouldn’t stop him, but threatened to join him.

Nikolai liked this about Kumiko, who broke her shy exterior to confront him.
