Tsk! She doesn"t need him to break the bond anyway."Call me Huang Qiuyan." She doesn"t know how many times she has said that to him. "I have a name, Fu Sheng. You call me a s.e.x doll and now, you call me a queen. Don"t come up with something new. It"s Huang Qiuyan."
The corner of his lips curls up. "My apologies."
But he doesn"t look sorry at all. "But, my queen. You were the one who told me that I treat you like a s.e.x doll. I thought that you wanted me to call you one."
"I said that because..." She has lost count times how many times they have done it. "We are always doing whenever we meet."
"What are you saying?" The vampire king raises his brow, rubbing his thumb sensually on the back of her hand, sending tingles through her skin. "You were the first one who came on to me. We are certainly not doing it now."
"I didn"t know what was wrong with me back then." She looks at him scornfully.
"What about the second time?" He eyes her, amused. Her fear of him has lowered more. Little by little, the fear will vanish. "Did you hate it? Huang Qiuyan, don"t dare to lie. I can tell how you feel about me just like the way you can tell what I feel for you."
"It"s all because of the bond." She takes her hand back. "I don"t think that those feelings are real.
"They are as real as you and me." Fu Sheng sits beside her. "It will take some time, but you will understand."
She already understands. Nothing is real. It doesn"t make sense that someone would suddenly start liking her this much. They don"t even know each other properly.
Exhaustion is taking over Fu Sheng. The spell and the battle have taken a lot from him. He watches her side profile. Can this woman be called G.o.dly beautiful? In other eyes, she might have looked ordinary once. As her true sides are coming out and she"s accepting herself more, her true beauty is more apparent to everyone else. She"s naive, stubborn, kind, courageous, and persistent. How many sides will she show to him? He"s looking forward to knowing more of her. He wraps his arms around his shoulder, brus.h.i.+ng his lips against her ear. "How was that hunter"s blood?"
She doesn"t push him away. The strange sensation is pleasant in her body and she can sense that he doesn"t ulterior motive right now.
"Gross." She replies honestly, "Why do vampires drink human blood? It tasted like s.h.i.+t."
Fu Sheng chuckles. "That"s because you aren"t supposed to drink another male"s blood."
"Huh?" She looks up at him. "Then, you can"t drink another female"s blood either."
"Yes, it"s the same for me." He kisses the mark on her neck. "Want now?"
"Want what?" She won"t fall for it.
"You have been through a lot recently." His hands trail down on the curves of her body, resting on her waist. "Ma belle reine, Huang Qiuyan, go ahead and drink. I want to rest after you are done."
"Ma be re what?" She can"t understand what he said. Fu Sheng closes his eyes, his body weighing down on her. She lays him down on the bed, freaking out. "What"s wrong with you?"
Fu Sheng doesn"t reply to her. Hearing her calls, his eyelids flutter once before falling to slumber again.
Not knowing what to do, she checks his breathing first -- slow and even. Why is he not talking?
"System, help! Something happened to him."
[Dear Host, he"s resting. Don"t disturb him.]
"Resting?" But why he is not waking up at all?
[Dear Host, immortal vampire king needs to rest too.]
"Oh." She scrutinizes his body with her gaze. He"s wearing a leather jacket. It looks dirty. Without a second thought, she unzips it. The sight gives her a shock.
[Dear Host, he must have stabbed his own heart. The wounds are healing.]
She gulps down. This is why she was in tremendous pain earlier. One of the purebloods did mention something about Fu Shen nearly dying for Fu Mian. If he was already suffering, why was he asking her to take a drink from him? He should be drinking from her since he"s hurt.
She can"t understand this person.
[Dear Host, I don"t understand you either.]

Minami Sei was the star detective who met his fall. He is sent to the most unpopular division of the H district police department in T city. He never expected to see her again. In the last 7 years, the wimpy girl turned into a cold lady? Is she only cold to him? Never mind, she"s still strange.
Things take a turn when she becomes the next chosen target of an evil spirit. She"s forced to use her abilities. When she thinks that it"s over, she finds out that the bas.e.m.e.nt is suddenly the supernatural investigation unit?
And who is this person that is always saving her? Is he a ghost or her personal guardian angel? Should she throw salts in his eyes or kiss him? Maybe she will do both.
