You Will Only Be Mine-Chapter 335: Scene
"Okay, that’s enough samples for now," Ama said, and I sighed in relief. "But I am surprised just how much your body has changed now. I have never seen a case like this before. Plus, you say you have to feed on vampire blood? Some fantasy is that if I’ve heard any."
"You know, until now, vampires were also fantastical creatures," I replied, putting the gown back on myself. "So, any idea why this is happening?"
"Honestly speaking, I just want to keep you here for days," Ama said and I could hear the alarm bells ringing in my head. She was not even using her joking cheerful voice. She is serious about it. "This is the first time anyone has come across such a case. You have the abilities that we would expect from a half vampire but instead of feeding on humans, you have to feed on vampires? Seriously what are you?"
"If I knew, it would have made things a lot better," I said stretching my arms. There were no signs of any abnormality in my body on the surface. However, seeing that Ama had her entire focus on the giant screen before her means there was more stuff I am not too sure about.
"So, who is your feeder right now?" she asked. "I doubt that Ai-chan would be doing that job."
"It’s Akira," I replied.
"That noble?" she asked surprised and I nodded my head. Ama grabbed her chin and was lost in her thoughts for a bit and then fixed her eyes on me again. "I don’t know what to say Kazu-chan but Ai-chan will get jealous. You should be very careful about this."

"You’re right," I said. Given how Ai is acting around everyone, I do need to be careful about it. It is almost as if I am dealing with a kid. A very possessive one at that.
"That’s enough for today. I will look into it more so rest assured for now. See you next week~" Ama said and I shuddered knowing I have to be back here again next week.
I walked out of the room to change into my normal clothes and luckily Ama didn’t try to break in. Looks like when needed, she is a very reliable doctor. However, the reason is pretty personal to her. I hope whatever she finds out will help cure her brother. If we are able to create something like an antidote, maybe then we might even be able to convert all vampires back to humans.
"Though I doubt they will be alive," I told myself. Vampires are converted when a human is almost dead so it can very much be possible that when they turn back to be a human, they will lose their life. That’s a very cruel option.
"Vampires are not a species that is supposed to exist," I remembered Ethan’s words. Well, I’ll think more about it when we have to cross that bridge.
Once I was done changing, I walked out of the room and found Ai still lying comfortably on the bed. Walking closer to her, I caressed her cheek feeling her cold skin and a sad smile formed on my face. No matter what happens, I will make sure that never happens to you again.
"Akira," I said and the noble appeared before me. I picked up AI in my arms and faced her. "Let’s go home."
"As you wish, Kazuki-sama," she said, and before we knew it, I was back at our place. I went to my room and lay Ai on our bed and sat next to her. Akira followed us to the bedroom and watched from a distance as I stroked Ai’s hair gently. "Is there anything else you would like me to do Kazuki-sama?"
"Come here," I said and she walked over to me. I stretched my hand out to reach her head but sitting down it was a little far for me. Noticing what I was trying to do, she bent over and I placed my hand on her head and started caressing it. "I know it was a little late but thank you for everything you have done for us Akira. I owe you."
"Please don’t say such a thing Kazuki-sama," she retaliated and stepped back a little. "I am merely a servant of yours so it is my duty- "
"You saved my life," I cut her mid-sentence. "That makes you my savior."
"But that is my job as your servant," she kept fighting back. "This is what a servant does for her master."
"Even a servant who would change masters in a heartbeat because she realized the man she is fighting is stronger than her current master?" I said and she closed her mouth. She started looking at her feet. Her hands were clenching her dress and she looked very embarrassed. "I am not scolding you; you know? I am saying that it is about time that you acknowledge that you are not just a servant to me. You are a very reliable comrade, a friend."
"But I am not worthy of calling myself your friend," she said grabbing her dress harder.
"Says who?" I ask and lean against the head of the bed. "If it makes it better, it is an order from me."
"You don’t understand…" she muttered but it was loud enough for me to hear.
Yes, I don’t understand Akira, not even the slightest but I trust her. I am well aware that she had joined my side for her own welfare but that means nothing to me. She has already done so much for me and for the people I cared for. I want her to see me as a friend because I want to know Akira better, to understand her better.
I feel a certain wall between me and Akira that is stopping us from understanding the other person more and I want to break that wall down. Though forcing it down will be very selfish of me.
"Then make me understand," I replied and she looked at me, her eyes looking a little numb. I gave her a little smile in reply. "That is enough for today, you are free to do whatever you want."
"As you wish, Kazuki-sama," she quickly recomposed herself and replied in her normal monotone voice.
"Also, think about what I said a little more," I said still stroking Ai’s hair. "I would love to know more about you."
"I-I will…consider it…" she said and vanished into thin air.
I took off my shoes and socks and realized Ai didn’t do the same. Getting off the bed, I did the same for her and went out to put them where they were supposed to be before wearing my house footwear and entering the room again. I sat next to Ai and kept caressing her head.
"She looks so peaceful," I muttered and lowered my face to give a kiss on her forehead. "I wish she would always look this peaceful."
Now that I remember, I forgot to submit my and Ai’s weapons at the VEO. James is going to get angry with me. I’ll just go do it tomorrow, given how Ai is knocked out and all. Tending to her is way more important than anything else right now for me.
I do have to think more about what to do in the future. A lot has changed and I don’t know how much longer we can keep things up as it is. Now that I am suspended from the VEO, that does mean I get more time to look after Ai. I can’t let her get out of my sight anymore too. I know Natsumi-san will get very angry if she finds out that we have not only done all that but have also missed classes. Have some mercy on me please, I am juggling too much on my own.
My thoughts wandered to my conversation with Natsumi-san and everything she said gave so much more context to so many questions. I didn’t even stop to think how so many people turn to become vampire hunters but it makes sense. The only way you can be a vampire hunter is when you know they even exist, plus having to be given dosages that are nothing less than what most people would call steroids, they are putting their life on the line in any way.
"Just how far can someone’s hatred towards vampires go?" I wondered and poked Ai’s cheek. They were soft as ever.
My only reason to join the VEO was because I could get stronger and learn more about my body and what is happening to it which is a pretty selfish reason but I doubt there is anyone who joined it for a selfless reason. Over anything, I am here because of Ai. I want to find a way to turn Ai back from a half-vampire to a normal human. A life span of twenty-five years is too little. You hardly even have lived long enough to learn everything about yourself. I wanted to be stronger before to just survive and not worry Ai but now it’s different.
Who cares about survival if I am not able to protect those I hold dear? I can’t be selfish anymore about these things. I want to be stronger, way stronger. Strong enough that nothing can happen to Ai. That is what is important to me now. I don’t care about anything else.
Ai is all that matters.
