Blood Awakening: The Strongest Hybrid and His Vampire Bride

Nikolai sat atop the mansion wall, gazing up at the moon, thinking about his conversations over the past few days. Information about the werewolves who choose a special mate called a Luna, and the vampires who take brides.

’I don’t want to leave anyone out.’

At first, he thought making Nikita his Luna would solve any issues, while the others could become his vampire brides.

’However, that’s not what I want… somehow, my heart isn’t matching my mind.’

He could only pick his Luna and Vampire Brides once, so he felt it must be someone special—or if it was a matter of his feelings toward each girl, that could make deciding a lot harder. In truth, he still didn’t understand the way monsters loved each other, and the concept.

However, in rare and extreme cases, the body and mind would select different women.

’That’s only half true.’

Nikolai felt it was best to be honest with himself; there was a girl with a certain pull, one that made him think differently to the others, one that captured his attention in a way he’d never experienced.

’Damn, I’m thinking like some mushy teenager,’ Nikolai shook the thought from his head, but his body still kept this feeling.

”I don’t want them to think I am not choosing them, what can I do?” Nikolai tried to think of an answer while staring at the moonlight, however, he wasn’t aware the girl was having similar problems to him.

In another room inside the mansion, a sensual blonde woman with golden eyes stared into the mirror, wearing the ’gift’ she bought for Nikolai. She blushed from her cheeks to the tips of her ears as she could not get the man out of her mind.

”Mmm~” she moaned quietly, pushing her arms together, turning and twisting her hips in the mirror, wanting to see if she looked good, the heat in her abdomen and chest building as she realised this was more than just her mind.

Her body sought him, desperately seeking a deeper connection, a powerful need to love and be loved by him, ignoring her logic and thoughts like an addict.

”Haa… Haaah…” With hot sighs, and deep breaths, she leaned on her wooden table, pulling up the skin-tight clothing, revealing her full figure, with racy slits in the chest and crotch revealing everything when she adjusted her posture.

”Nikolai~ why do I feel this way?”

Meanwhile, during her struggle, Nikita, Risa and Selene sat together in the dining room enjoying a fruit tea with scones.

The trio seemed different from usual.

”Ah~ these scones are wonderful,” Risa said happily, stuffing them in her mouth like it would disappear any minute.

”Don’t eat them all, they are for Nikita…” Selene snorted back with her cold tone while sipping on a cup of herbal tea.

”S-sorry about that, Nikita, you were right about Selene’s baking; it’s wonderful~ I can’t help it.”

”Ahem!”

The compliment caused Selene’s cheeks to turn pink; her face turning away slightly, trying not to make it obvious; she loved praise, after all.

”I wanted to talk to you two about something important.”

”What is it, Nikita?” Selene asked, looking over at the small white-haired werewolf’s curiosity as Nikita crossed her arms.

”I think Nikolai has chosen his Luna.” A slow, low voice, almost a whisper as she stuttered slightly.

This statement hit hard. Both Risa and Selene looked over, with Selene placing down her teacup.

”W-what?” Risa and Selene replied in sync. ”Who?”

Because they knew the customs of most monsters, thanks to their upbringing, the pair knew it wasn’t them. Once a Luna was chosen, the pair’s feelings for each other would become almost magical.

Able to sense each other’s desire, affection and needs along with their bond becoming deeper.

Selene stared into Nikita’s eyes with a death stare as Nikita continued.

”It’s NOT me!” She sounded more than convinced, but also revealing the bitterness and jealousy in her voice, knowing how it would look and sound if anyone else heard her.

”It’s someone else…”

The room was silent as tension filled the air.

Nikita had suspicions about whom it might be, but Risa didn’t change, and so she removed her from the list of suspects.

The fact it wasn’t Selene shocked her even more. So, she felt it best to share what she believed with Risa and Selene only, feeling safe enough around those two.

This news shocked them deeply. They started asking questions.

”Is she here?”

”Do we know her?”

”If she becomes his Luna, I don’t think we can be beat her.” Selene and Risa became a little flustered by the sudden information.

They started speaking and asking questions in succession.

”Calm down.” Nikita closed her eyes for a moment, considering the situation. ”I do not know the answer to these questions, but, we must find out.”

Selene agreed with a nod, but Risa started to shudder with jealousy in her heart, unable to believe it. She thought after everything that she would have the largest chance, but learning the truth became a little shocking.

”Wait, but he’s a hybrid, right?” Selene suddenly muttered. ”Even if he chooses a Luna, can’t he still have Vampire Brides?”

Nikita nodded slowly at this statement; this is precisely why she wanted to discuss.

The function of a Luna, although similar, wasn’t the same as a Vampire Bride. To some races, especially vampires, their bond of blood could be much deeper and important than the mystical bond of a Luna.

”I wanted to be his Luna.” Nikita muttered, but with a hand on her abdomen, she showed a bitter smile before shaking her head. ”If we all love him, perhaps being vampire brides would be our best chance.”

Both Risa and Selene fell silent as Nikita’s voice grew sombre while rubbing her stomach, clearly upset.

”… It wouldn’t just be us, either, we’re not his only potential brides.” Selene suddenly uttered.

Risa seemed upset, looking down at the table, trying to hide it while drinking her tea.

”Who else?”

”Kumiko of course?”

”She would make the best bride,” Risa stated sadly. Both girls paused, knowing she was the biggest rival. However, Nikita had to bring up another point.

”Kumiko could also be his Luna, her affection differs from ours… more natural.” Nikita revealed one of her hidden feelings, her jealousy towards Kumiko, due to how she could meet Nikolai and their relationship developed. ”But we must be careful because it could be another woman too… like that Sarah or even your sister, Anya.”

The women discussed their topics but avoided confrontation, instead accepting each other as sisters and allies in their desire to make Nikolai happy.

After calming down Risa and Selene, Nikita got up and left the room. They planned to give the gifts they bought to Nikolai tonight, and would meet in his room in an hour.

Back on the roof, about to return inside.

Nikolai sighed into the cold night sky, his breath creating a puff of steam.

The feels inside him different from his mind, yet he could only believe what his father and Viktor told him when confiding in these feelings.

’How confusing…’

His body had already chosen the woman who suited him most as a Luna, but his mind wasn’t in sync with that choice.

Because of this dissonance, he would struggle to make the final choice unless he could admit his feelings. Though his mind thought of Nikita most vividly, he wondered if that was because of how deep and long their friendship was and the fact he impregnated her, which didn’t make her his Luna.

’It’s not that I’m worried, but, will it change my life forever?’

With all these feelings, Nikolai considered speaking with his father again, but part of him wanted to solve the issue by himself.

’The answer is obvious, why am I avoiding this?’

Maybe he feared telling the other women, or he always saw himself as special and thought he could make them all his Luna, but his body and the changes he sensed in himself woke him up. No matter how much he tried to resist, it was clear his body told him otherwise.

The wind blew past his hair and his clothes fluttered in the air. His scent wafted gently through the night as he leaped from the rooftop onto a tree branch and landed inside his room, finding four beautiful women awaiting him.

”Nikolai!”

”Darling!”

”Dear husband.”

”Honey, I missed you.”

Risa, Nikita, Kumiko, and Selene were all inside, but something felt strange.

A scent filled his nose, filling his senses, yet making him feel strange and hot, with a tight feeling in his chest and pants. It made him want to rush at her, but he bit the tip of his tongue and dissipated those intense feelings.

’After all…’

’How did Kumiko become my Luna?’

No, even his mind struggled to refute why. Her kind and gentle side, mixed with the seductive and wild figure. She never fought and always treated the other women well and brought them together at her own expense.

Maybe if he could ignore his body, then his mind would pick Nikita or Selene.

’No, I am looking at this in the wrong way. Why is being a Vampire Bride less than being a Luna?’

The title of Luna would grant protection to the one chosen.

Kumiko, with no family to protect her, was the ideal choice, but that was merely his mind trying to rationalise and suppress his desires.

’I should think about this clearly, and earnestly.’ He decided instantly in his heart, ignoring any further hesitation.

But he remained silent and kept all this to himself for now.

”So, you girls went shopping?”

’Luna or not, I love them all, and will not let nature take its course, Luna or Vampire Bride… these are the women I want by my side.’

’With or without those stupid titles!’

He refused to let these emotions rule him, forcing himself to calm down, while the girls became excited and started to show the things they bought. The effect was like pouring iced water on scalding hot lava, but he gritted his teeth and forced himself.

Even if his body sought Kumiko like a meth addict right now, Nikolai wanted to fight against it, to become stronger, able to accept and desire them all in the same way.

’I will make them all my Luna, even if it kills me!’

”Ugh…”

Of course, resisting these urges, and trying to achieve this goal caused significant damage, as muscles spasmed, and he almost coughed up blood.

To make them all happy and surpass common sense.

This pain was nothing.

As if responding to his call… his black heart shone in the depths of his chest, pumping faster, and rapidly made the pain became acceptable.

But in return, his eyes flickered with a black light and the desire towards Kumiko increased more than before, as if the solution found was to drown in this sensation.

Then his devil’s blood distorted his desire, stopping his Celestial Aura that tried to pour into Kumiko, instead diverting it to the other three women.

It might have been a few moments, but Nikolai felt the same desire that ate away at his sanity from Selene…

The answer was not to deny these feelings, but to accept them.

Let them overwhelm him like a reed in a river, and then divert them to each woman, slowly increasing the amount his body sought them out, before making them all as his Luna.
