The sunlight had yet to fully fill the room when Kiz woke up.
Well… to be more precise, she was woken up by the fire burning inside her heart.
Recently, that fire had been burning hotter and hotter.
Every time she saw Elia’s neck… every time she saw the way her eyes narrowed slightly in the sunlight… and every time she saw her sleeping soundly and defenselessly by her side… she felt an overwhelming urge to bite down.
Bite down… letting that warm, sweet liquid flow into her mouth, making Elia melt into a puddle in her arms, rendering her unable to go anywhere, forever forced to stay by her side.
Kiz rolled over, lying on top of Elia.
The little saintess was still asleep at that moment, her breathing even and steady.
Her collar was slightly open, revealing a pale section of her neck, and the faint blue veins pulsing beneath her skin tempted Kiz further.
Kiz’s breathing grew ragged. She reached out, her fingernail gently tracing across that patch of skin.
Mmm… so soft… so smooth… With just a little pressure, she could easily break it…
And then, that sweet blood would flow out.
Elia’s blood… one sip… just one sip… and in that moment, Elia would become her little toy… her doll.
Ever since gaining formidable power at the Trial Ground, Kiz had been trying every possible way to make Elia completely her own possession…
Because, for some reason, she always felt that if she didn’t do this, Elia would easily disappear from her side.
“What are you looking at?” Elia’s voice suddenly rang out.
Kiz’s hand, which had been about to do something bad, froze midair.
She looked up to meet those blue eyes and said, “Looking at you. Your sleeping face is always the most beautiful.”
Elia smiled and asked, “And when I’m awake? Is it not beautiful then?”
“It’s beautiful when you’re awake too.” Kiz played with a strand of her hair. “But when you’re awake, you run. You leave me.”
“Huh? Are you falsely accusing me! When have I ever run?”
“Every time I want to bite you…” Kiz lowered her head, pressing the tip of her nose against Elia’s. “…You dodge away. Isn’t that running?”
Elia reached up, cupping her face, and gently rubbed her thumb across Kiz’s lips. As Kiz’s mouth slowly opened, she touched those two sharp fangs.
“Because… I’m scared~”
“Scared of what? You? Scared?”
“Scared that you’ll drain me dry, and then I won’t be able to stay by your side anymore…”
About half of what Elia said was for self-preservation.
Because any observant person could tell that the little princess had been wanting to drain her dry and turn her into a specimen recently… her Yandere Trait had fully awakened.
So, the best course of action now was to appease the little princess.
These words made Kiz’s heart race… She stared intently into Elia’s eyes, searching for any hint of a joke.
But those blue eyes were serious, so serious that it made her throat tighten.
So Kiz nodded frantically, saying, “Mhm mhm! I… I would never do that! I would absolutely never do something like that!”
At that moment, Elia finally showed a gentle smile and said, “Alright. Then bite me.”
Kiz was stunned for a moment, saying, “You… how…”
“Don’t you want to bite?” Elia fully exposed her neck to her.
That pale skin was right before her eyes… The blood vessels pulsed softly beneath the skin, as if inviting her in.
In that instant, Kiz’s sanity shattered completely.
She lowered her head and swiftly sank her fangs into Elia’s neck.
Elia’s body tensed up sharply.
She could feel the blood draining from her body, and she could hear the sound of Kiz swallowing… And as usual, the pain only lasted for a moment before that overwhelming wave of pleasure washed over her.
Her hand lifted, trying to grab onto something, but ultimately only weakly fell onto Kiz’s shoulder, saying, “Kiz… slower… I…”
However, Kiz did not slow down.
She sucked harder, using one hand to firmly pin Elia’s wrist down, preventing her from moving, while the other hand slipped in from Elia’s waist.
Elia’s body arched up.
“Don’t… stop…”
Kiz’s fingers drew circles on Elia’s side, her nails lightly scraping across the skin, leaving a few shallow red marks.
This completely messed up Elia’s breathing, and she said, “You… that’s enough… Kiz…”
“Not enough.” Kiz released her mouth and licked the trace of blood at the corner of her lips.
Her eyes were now as red as burning flames.
“Never enough.”
Then she lowered her head and licked the spot where she had just bitten down again.
Elia’s entire body was trembling.
The pleasure hadn’t faded yet when a new surge of stimulation quickly rushed over her.
At that moment, her mind was a complete blank, leaving her completely at Kiz’s mercy.
Everywhere Kiz’s hand passed, she would lightly scrape with her nails. Those red marks intertwined, looking like some kind of ancient rune.
“You know what? Every time I see your neck, I want to bite it. Every time I see your blood, I want to drink it. Every time I see you sleeping defenselessly in front of me, I want to tie you up and lock you away in a place only I know about.”
Elia opened her eyes and looked at her. She saw madness, obsession, and a bone-deep love written all over that delicate little face.
“That way you won’t run away… never… never again… you’ll be by my side forever.” Kiz’s hand stopped over Elia’s heart.
Even through the thin fabric of her clothes, she could feel the violent beating of her heart.
“Your heart is beating so fast… Is it because of me?”
Elia pressed her lips together, seeming to ponder something.
Then, she smiled and said, “Yes, it is because of you~ Everything you said just now… wanting to lock me up, wanting to keep me bound to you… I think the same thing every day.”
“I want to tie you to the bed too. I want to leave marks on your body that will never fade. I want everyone to know that you’re mine…”
There was fire burning in Elia’s blue eyes too, a flame identical to the one in Kiz’s eyes.
Kiz smiled from the bottom of her heart.
Then she bit down on Elia’s neck again. This time, the bite was very gentle, merely adding a new layer of mark on top of the already bleeding wound.
Elia, in turn, pulled Kiz’s hand to her mouth, opened it, and bit down on her ring finger… She bit down very hard, biting hard enough to draw blood.
“It hurts! But it’s not bad either. Hehehehe…” Feeling the pain, Kiz instead let out a slightly unhinged laugh.
So, at this point… just how much of a normal person was she, or Elia, anymore? They had probably long since sunk into this pathological state. But Elia had brought this on herself.
If she hadn’t treated Kiz that way every single day from the start, Kiz probably wouldn’t have become this thoroughly corrupted.
But Elia had no regrets.
Then, the two of them looked at each other and both laughed.
And at that very moment, the sunlight finally shone down on them both.
