Chapter 19: The final chapter of a sweet dream(4)

Description

Gulp—gulp—gulp.

She sucked harder and harder, the sound of swallowing echoing softly in her throat.

The blood carried a faint fruity sweetness mixed with alcohol, sweet and smooth as it slid down her throat into her stomach.

Before long, Bai Ning herself felt a little dizzy, as if she were drunk.

After sucking for a while longer, Bai Ning gradually felt the blood flow in Lü Erlu’s neck slow down.

It was as if his body could no longer supply enough.

Looking at his face, it had already turned deathly pale, completely drained of color, and his lips were dry.

Only then did she reluctantly release her bite.

She extended her tongue and carefully licked the blood from the corner of her mouth clean.

Her crimson eyes sparkled, filled with satisfaction—and a hint of anticipation.

Then, still carrying that intoxicated feeling, Bai Ning lowered her head without hesitation and bit into the pulse on her own left wrist.

She paid no attention to the pain of her fangs piercing her own skin.

Soon, the primordial blood belonging to the royal bloodline of vampires flowed out.

She carefully held the precious blood in her mouth, then lifted her head, staring at Lü Erlu without blinking.

Once upon a time, when she had been the Vampire Queen, she had been cold and merciless.

Her face never showed any expression.

Her complexion had always been pale and icy.

Not to mention gentleness—even the slightest emotional fluctuation had been rare.

But now, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks—a blush tinged with shyness and deep affection.

Her eyes had become incredibly gentle, filled completely with care for Lü Erlu.

This was the appearance of a vampire in love—a change she herself had not even realized.

Bai Ning slowly leaned down and gently pressed her lips against Lü Erlu’s.

The moment their soft lips touched, her heart suddenly pounded, as if a deer were running wildly inside her chest.

Night gradually fell.

Outside, everything was silent.

Lü Erlu’s family had long since fallen asleep.

Their breathing was deep and steady.

The room was filled only with quiet breaths.

Tenderness.

Bai Ning was the first to open her eyes.

There was a hint of mischief in them, along with something indescribable.

She carefully lifted the blanket, making sure not to make any noise, curled her feet, and slipped quietly out of her room.

The hallway was dark, illuminated only by faint moonlight from the window.

She walked step by step, extremely lightly, afraid of waking anyone.

Her shoes brushed the floor without making a sound.

She arrived at Lü Erlu’s door.

She gently turned the handle and pushed it open, slipping inside.

The room carried a faint scent of alcohol mixed with his unique smell.

It wasn’t unpleasant.

Looking at the man lying on the bed, Bai Ning’s lips curved upward slightly.

She muttered softly: “Father, oh father… tonight, I shall grant you the greatest blessing in the world. This is something others could only dream of~”

She bent down and gently turned his body so he lay flat on his back.

Then she slowly sat beside him, leaning forward slightly, gazing closely at his face.

In the next moment, a faint red glow appeared around her body.

Her appearance began to change.

Two small bat-shaped horns emerged from the top of her head, and a pair of thin bat wings extended from her back, fluttering gently.

Her small, cute canine teeth gradually lengthened and sharpened, transforming into the signature fangs of a vampire.

This was her true form as a high-ranking vampire.

She leaned down, her face close to Lü Erlu’s neck.

Her warm breath brushed against his skin.

She extended her soft tongue and gently licked his neck, again and again, her movements careful and tentative.

This was the etiquette of noble vampires.

Before feeding, they always moistened the prey’s skin.

It was elegance ingrained in their bones.

And since the person before her was someone she cared about, her touch was even more gentle.

After licking for a while, feeling the skin grow warm and moist, Bai Ning stopped.

She slightly opened her mouth, positioning her sharp fangs over the artery pulsing in his neck.

Pierce.

With a crisp sound, her fangs broke through his skin.

His blood, rich with pure magical power, immediately flowed into her mouth.

Bai Ning drank greedily, a satisfied sound escaping her throat.

The taste was deeply familiar.

It instantly brought back memories.

Back then, she had been buried in dark soil, powerless and on the verge of disappearing completely.

It was this blood—this magical blood—that had saved her life and brought her back.

“Mmm…”

Lü Erlu, drunk and half-conscious, let out a faint groan at the slight pain.

His brows furrowed.

But Bai Ning was too absorbed in drinking to notice.

In her heart, she thought about draining the inferior human blood from his body and replacing it with her own pure royal vampire blood.

That way, he could stay with her forever.

When their lips touched, a drop of liquid mixed with saliva and blood slipped from the corner of his mouth, glistening.

“This mustn’t be wasted~”

She justified it to herself, licking the drop clean.

Then she leaned forward again and kissed him, slowly transferring the royal primordial blood from her mouth into his.

So this… was what kissing felt like.

A strange feeling spread in Bai Ning’s heart—soft, warm, and addictive.

She gently shook her head, trying to push the thoughts away.

She told herself this was repayment.

She was saving him.

She was turning him into a vampire so he could live forever—not because she enjoyed it.

Definitely not.

Yet her actions didn’t stop.

She bit her arm again, drew fresh blood into her mouth, and kissed him once more, passing it to him.

Again and again, she repeated the ritual.

With each transfer, Lü Erlu’s body changed slightly.

After one swallow, his hair gradually turned silver-white like hers.

After another, his pupils slowly changed from dark to crimson.

After another, even his tall body seemed to shrink slightly.

Normally, the Embrace ritual wasn’t this complicated.

The progenitor only needed to feed their blood directly.

Simple and efficient.

But Bai Ning deliberately chose this slow method.

She wanted to savor the closeness.

Usually, as a queen, she could never openly seek affection.

But tonight, they were alone.

She wanted to enjoy this private moment.

Completely absorbed, she didn’t notice the door behind her was slightly open.

Outside the door, a pair of large purple eyes peered through the gap.

It was Zi Ya.

She had woken up and followed quietly, witnessing everything.

Her eyes were filled with curiosity—along with a faint, hidden trace of envy… and loss.

She watched silently, afraid to disturb them.
