You Will Only Be Mine-Chapter 250: A pact

I let Ama rest on me while I was still comforting and finally, after some minutes, she looked up at me and slowly let go. I could see the embarrassment on her face and it made a lot of sense but it was the least of my worries right now. I just wanted to make sure Ama was okay right now. I tried hearing her heartbeat a bit more deliberately and I could hear that it was beating at a normal rate now which was a good news.

"Feeling better now?" I asked her while still rubbing her back. Ama just nodded and didn’t look me in the eyes. I decided to not say anything more and just let Ama get comfortable on her own while I tried comforting her. Given the reaction, whatever she saw and felt was absolutely terrifying and mentally scarring.

I decided to not look at her anymore and stare at the wall right before me. Thinking back on how we got here, maybe it would have been best to just rent a motel room for some time. I know Ama is opening up about this all for herself I may not have been the best person to open up. I understand what she went through was awful but on the inside, I didn’t feel anything more than that. I was so emotionally detached from it all that the best I could do was just say what I think is right and nothing else.

I didn’t handle situations like this too often so I do feel a bit clueless and just did what I thought was right. Ama has done a lot for me and I genuinely appreciate her but over everything else, I want the day to turn into night so I can go and save Ai. That is all that is in my mind right now.

"It really was a bad idea," Ama said and wiped some tears from her eyes. "Putting all this on Kazu-chan was really wrong of me and I am really sorry for it. It’s just tha- "

"Ama, everyone needs someone who you need to be able to talk to openly. Emotions and thoughts bottled up will explode one day and break a person so don’t say sorry. If I am someone you can openly talk to, please do so," I picked the kindest words I could. "I know it is not right for me to ask, but do you want to finish what you were telling me earlier? I think there is some still left."

"Yes, but these parts left the feeling of anger than just sadness or dread in my mind," she said. "After they found out what happened, my parents gave up on Tom. They literally banished them from the house and I was somehow started to be praised for doing a good job. All because their second experiment did worse than the first one. I couldn’t take it at all and just stormed out of the place. I could have gone on a rampage then and there but I knew I could never defeat my parents. They were in a league of their own. If you think of S-class hunters as mere monsters, they were the monster hunters."

"And so you decided to quit being a vampire hunter?" I asked and Ama nodded. "So this is why you are a doctor at the medical center in the VEO."

"Yes, I take care of the wounded but my main reason to be there is to research more on vampires. To find a way to revert the process of being turned into a vampire. Tom was left heartbroken from what happened and loathed his very own existence. I was the only family he had left and he still distanced himself from me out of the fear of wanting to dig his fangs in my neck. So I came up with a solution and put him in cryogenic sleep. His body is alive and preserved but his consciousness, I found a way to put it to sleep so that he doesn’t have to suffer like that. I couldn’t bring myself to kill Tom...even if he begged me so many times so this was the best I could do it," Ama said and looked at me. She raised her hand and placed it on my head and started ruffling my hair. I just let her do what she wanted. "You see Kazu-chan, you remind me of Tom in many ways. I can’t explain it exactly but how I feel towards you is the same as I did to Tom."

"Don’t tell me you have a brother complex," I joked.

"No, I don’t. I am just very overprotective of Tom and that’s all. Why I act the way I do with people is just best for me. I take everything outside my work and Tom in a light-hearted and joking way so that I don’t get too attached to anyone. If I let myself loose like that, I fear I am at a loss again," she said while still ruffling my hair. "But I am failing at that too since I am getting myself to be closer to Kazu-chan."

"What’s wrong with that?" I said and stood up. I walked in front of Ama facing her. "As far as I am aware, I’m not someone to betray or take advantage of others and the last thing I plan to do is die. I have a lot of things I have to do before my inevitable death happens and you may not be there to see that, given you are…born way before me."

"What a way to say that I am old," Ama said in a slightly annoyed voice. She let out a sigh and stood up. "Okay, this is the last time I will give this thing a chance, so you better don’t die on my Kazu-chan."

"Is me dying the only thing that can go wrong?" I asked and Ama poked my forehead.

"Well in the near future, that is the main issue given the mission you are going on," Ama said and I chuckled. "Oh wait, you must be hungry, right? What do you want to eat? I make great German food. Do you want to try?"

"You know how to make German food?"

"Natürlich weiß ich das," Ama said something in I think is German? I think it is.

"Japanese please," I said and Ama looked a bit confused. "What is it?"

"You say Japanese please but we have been talking in English, everyone around us also talks in English but why do you say Japanese? You have been talking in Eng-" Ama asked.

"Ama, I understand your question but please that is the one wall you wouldn’t want to break," I replied almost coming for the save. Seriously now, I understand I am narrating this in English but this wasn’t part of the script.

Wait.

Oh, I broke it myself.

"I’ll love some German food," I said and Ama looking satisfied walked out of the room and I decided to sit back on the chair.

I let out a loud sigh and bobbed my head back on the chair. I was tired honestly. The training did drain me completely and the fatigue has just hit me like a truck. I couldn’t help but caress my belly which was grumbling for some food.

"I guess everyone has their own reasons to be in VEO," I muttered and sighed again. I mean, fighting against vampires is surely a very dangerous job and if you are to partake in that willingly, you would either need to be extremely self-righteous or have a big hate towards vampires. However, putting just two as the primary reasons doesn’t seem fair given the reasons Ama had and even I.

"Ai…"

I clenched my fist really tight and tried to control my emotions the best I could. The moment I get to think about how she is right now, I have a certain idea due to whatever I heard that day. Thinking about it makes me boil up in rage and hatred towards Dominic. I can’t wait to kill that vampire.

"You know you are not still strong enough to kill him yourself," Ethan said and though ashamed to admit, Ethan was right. Dominic is still far stronger than I am and I honestly don’t have any plan on how to go about this. It is highly probable that Dominic will be handled by the S-class hunters and I would have to go around and get Ai out of the place which seems like the safest plan but I am sure Dominic is already prepared for all this. Who knows what he will throw at us this time?

Still, I can’t get myself deluded from the main objective. My main reason to go there isn’t just to kill Dominic but to save Ai. That takes priority and I had to make sure I focus on that and nothing else. Even the slightest bit of mistake will not be tolerated here. This is not training. This was an actual mission where my life was on line.

"Let’s just get this over with," I said calming myself down and getting myself in the right mindset for the mission.
