"I'm your wife," Roxana repeated, saying it in a soft tone, realizing that it was somewhat embarrassing.
"If I hear you, don't say it twice," Lucien says in surprise, breathing deeply and sinking into the sofa, and asks, "I mean, how did you become my wife?"
"Selene, hasn't she told you anything?" She asks and sits down next to him naturally.
"No..." He looks at her, confused. "She just told me that something happened to me when I became a vampire, that's it, she didn't give me many details."
Roxana sighed with resignation. "It seems he didn't tell you anything..." She brought her hand to her forehead, but before doing so, she leaned in slightly and sniffed his neck. Her eyes turned red as blood.
"Wait a minute, explain." He controls his urge to jump on her neck and drink her blood; he wants to know what Selene didn't tell him when they met. He's very curious.
Roxana took a deep breath, regaining her composure as a businesswoman. Her voice returned to its usual elegant tone. "Cough... There are two types of intentions when transforming someone into a vampire: the first is to turn them into a lover and the second into a slave. But there are also two methods."
Lucien looked at her seriously, attentive to every word. The intensity of his gaze made Roxana look away and blush.
"The safest method is through a ritual, the same one Selene used that day. With a small change, it can be used to create a slave or a lover. The other method is older, and you've probably seen it in movies: bite the neck and set your intention. If the intention is love, a bond between partners is created; if it is domination, a bond of servitude is born."
"Uh-huh... and what does that have to do with me?" He raised an eyebrow. "I understand the theory, but how does that make you my wife?"
Roxana sighed and put a finger to his lips with a soft, sensual smile. "Let me finish."
He stood still, more out of contact than obedience.
"When you were turning into a vampire," Roxana continued, "there was an external factor that disrupted the ritual... and you bit us all. With the intention of making us yours."
Lucien blinked. Once. Twice. "What?" He couldn't believe what he had just heard. What, bit them? What the hell! The more he thought about it, the more confused he became... Until he realized something important.
"Wait, wait... hang on a minute, you just said 'you bit us,' so you mean that you two are the only ones, right?" Confusion, surprise, and disbelief are written all over his face. Are they married to more than two vampires? Does he have a harem of vampires?
"That's right," Roxana nods.
"Oh, wow..." He slumps onto the couch, staring up at the ceiling. He can't believe this. It was so absurd. He thought it only happened in soap operas with lucky-as-fuck protagonists. "...What are your names?" he asks, looking into her eyes..
Roxana sighs and says, "The other two... are called Sesha Nadir and Scarlet Foc, just like Selene and I are your wives."
"..." Lucien remains silent, processing everything he has just heard, but internally, he is very happy. He has a damn harem of beautiful vampires! Isn't that a great prize?
'Damn! I have a damn harem, I finally look like those protagonists.' Despite his inner happiness, his expression remained calm, and he fixed his gaze on Roxana, 'So this beauty is my wife.' He still can't believe it.
Suddenly, he notices Roxana elegantly approaching his neck, baring her fangs, sinking them into his neck, and beginning to drink his blood.
Lucien also sank his fangs into Roxana's neck.
"Ahh~!" She lets out a moan, and her eyes turn red as blood, desire fills her body, and she sits on his lap, looking at him sensually, and she feels something hard in her sacred cave, and she smiles happily, and sinks her fangs in again.
When he begins to suck her blood, he opens his eyes in surprise. The taste is different compared to Selene's, which was like a heavenly frozen delicacy... but Roxana's blood was like breathing the purest air in the world: fresh, light, and extremely addictive.
As he drinks Roxana's blood, he feels a weak bond begin to strengthen in his body, like when he watches his first anime again after many years.
After sucking her blood for several minutes, Lucien feels that it is enough and removes his fangs from Roxana's sensual collarbones. She does the same and looks at him, breathing heavily, and her face flushed.
She looks extremely sexy, especially with blood running down her lip as she fixes her hair. Lucien was mesmerized... but he noticed something about Roxana, and that was thanks to their bond. It allows him to "feel" her entire existence.
"... What happened to you?" he asked, wrapping his arms around her waist.
She looked at him for a few seconds... but finally decided to tell him everything that had happened to her when she returned to her mansion.
Lucien listened to everything with a neutral expression. He felt Roxana's emotions when she was happy, her anger and sadness when she found all her servants dead, and her satisfaction when the woman from the Inquisition turned into a ghoul.
He feels strange, 'feeling' Roxana's emotions... although he thought about it carefully, he had been able to feel Selene's emotions when he was torn in half, at that moment, he noticed her anger, frustration, and hatred for the fanatical hunter of the Inquisition.
"And what will you do?" he asked, staring intently into her eyes.
Roxana lowered her gaze. "I don't know... I want to kill that bastard and hang his head on my door," she said furiously, her eyes shining intensely. She wanted to see that bald hunter suffer!
"Then why don't you do it? Get revenge! They killed your servants, the ones you grew up with. Don't hesitate. I'll always be on your side," Lucien said harshly, his eyes red as blood, shining intensely.
She bites her lip, somewhat indecisive. "But... I'm not strong enough..." she whispers. It's been a long time since she's felt so weak, despite belonging to the Vânt family.
"..." He remains silent because he has no idea how a vampire becomes stronger, so he can't say something like, "Become stronger by doing this," because he doesn't have the slightest clue.
"It seems those church dogs have been more active recently." Suddenly, Selene's voice is heard.
"How long have you been standing there?" Roxana growled, hugging Lucien's body tighter.
A vein bulged on Selene's forehead. "Since you sucked his blood like a bitch in heat, and stay away from him," she said venomously.
She expects him to respond in kind, but Roxana makes an unexpected move.
"Kyaa~, husband, I'm being molested by a crazy woman," Roxana throws herself on Lucien's chest and sticks her tongue out at Selene.
"..." Selene freezes... until the veins stand out on her forehead. "Bitch! Where's your image of an empowered woman?"
"What empowered woman?" She snorted: "Besides, I'm not an empowered woman, I'm a businesswoman, not like you, who just spends her time looking for food..." A malicious smile appeared on her lips. "Do you want me to tell all the men how you sucked their blood?"
"You...!" Selene points at her furiously, unable to finish her sentence, but she remembers something else, too. "And don't play innocent, because you're just the same. Do you want me to list all the men who were your victims?" If she was going down, she wouldn't go down alone. She would take her to hell with her!
"Ho... How dare you drag me into this!" Roxana shouted indignantly, unable to believe that she had brought that up.
'HAHAHAHA~! Take that, bitch!' Selene laughed smugly to herself and looked at her triumphantly.
"Heh~" The two froze when they heard Lucien's voice and turned their heads. That little laugh made them shudder!
"So my two beautiful wives have been drinking another man's blood." He gets up from the sofa and sits on the armchair. He didn't like hearing that they had been drinking another man's blood.
Selene was the first to react, "Lucien, let me explain, it's not what you think, I never bit his neck," but faced with his silence, being the yandere that she is, she just panicked. "Believe me, I never bit the necks of those I cut off their heads and drank their blood."
"It's true, we never bit them, we just drank their blood from a cup." Roxana quickly supports Selene, not wanting to be hated by her husband.
Lucien continues to look at them with a neutral expression, which makes them curse internally, thinking that something they did in the past has led them to this situation.
Selene looks at Roxana with hatred. Because of that bitch of a businesswoman, she is now hated by her darling. 'Damn you for bringing up that fucking topic in front of my darling.' All traces of her noble demeanor have completely disappeared.
"Pfff..." He couldn't hold back... "Hahahaha~! You guys look too beautiful, trying to justify yourselves."
They blush, but glance sideways to see if he is really angry.
"I'm not angry or anything like that." He leans forward slightly and touches her cheek. "But putting all that aside, let's focus on what's important."
Selene and Roxana look at him, confused.
"Selene, what do you mean, the Inquisition has been more active?"
