Blood Awakening: The Strongest Hybrid and His Vampire Bride

A golden fairy sat at the desk, her beautiful face, sharp nose soft, juicy and plump red lips glistening in the sun's glow and her natural glossy shine. Deep red eyes, like ruby gemstones, glistened as she watched the screen with a slight frown on her lips. Nikolai was amused by the slight furrow in her blonde browns.

"Who is it? I am a little busy, so sit and wait." A voice like an empress, commanding and filled with an alluring and feminine charm that could make even the emperor of the world kneel.

'The way her eyebrows knit together when she is thinking looks similar.' Nikolai couldn't help but think of the vague scene in his memories from the past. The strange girl was like a miniature fairy of light swinging alone, yet her eyes were always watching him as if curious or irritated.

'Was it her?'

Wilhelmina stepped forward and pushed a small wagon filled with snacks and tea; the scent was a little strong, causing Nikolai's nose to itch. 'Herbs, bitter and spicy, but they smell familiar... Mint and Camomile?'

Nikolai enjoyed the refreshing scent of the tea and watched as Selene's delicate hands elegantly lifted the cup and drank. "Nikolai, I have some work to do. You don't mind waiting, right?"

"No problem, I will wait."

'She feels different, nothing like the last time we met. There was a sense like she created a wall, an icy feeling that surrounded her. It felt strange to Nikolai that Selene didn't speak with her usual style, insulting him or being haughty.

'Did that night change things?' Nikolai thought with a slight disappointment seeping into his heart.

He never wanted to do something that she disliked, but Selene was not Nikita. Selene didn't love him or adore him like that. 'No wonder...'

Instead of lingering on the negative emotions, he just released a long sigh and leaned back into the sofa while enjoying the ambience of the office. Nikolai could sense the changes in her mood or thoughts when typing from the rhythm and speed or how long she took to sigh and complain.

"Annoying...."

"This is wrong... who pays these fools...."

However, he could only rely on his ears because when he looked at her, she would frown, then glare at him with her nose, snorting as if angry until he looked away. 'This woman is so strange...' He thought.

"I see.... the project is going well..." Selene's voice echoed in his enhanced ears, along with the sound of her huffing with a slight smile appearing on her lips as he peeked from the corner of his eyes.

Nevertheless, time passed quickly with the tapping of her keyboard and brief whispers Selene said to herself when frustrated or curious.

"Haa..... I am done. This work shouldn't be mine." Selene muttered while stretching the sound of her bones cracking and adjusting to her new posture as her arms clasped together above her head, reaching higher.

'Hmmm, so he didn't complain once while waiting? It's been a good few hours. Did he understand this was punishment for doing those things to me? I wonder...'

Selene glanced towards Nikolai, who sat comfortably on the couch, reading a book as he sipped from the cup of tea. "You really didn't get bored? How can you sit for so long without talking? Don't you have anything to do?"

Her voice was like a thunderclap that awakened the room. Nikolai's gaze turned to her as she felt something strange. Her chest throbbed, and she felt a slight arrhythmia before it faded. 'That night...' Memories of the night they spent in the VIP room flashed through her eyes causing her face to turn red, forcing her to turn away. "Hmph... are you hungry?"

"A little."

Selene felt uncomfortable as the silence continued with only the ticking of the clock and their breathing as the sound of the busy world outside was muffled by the walls. She got up from her seat and walked towards the small table and sofa before Selene sat down—however, to both of their shock, she sat beside Nikolai despite there being two other sofas empty.

A single-seater and a two-seater.

"D-Don't misunderstand, Nikolai, it's just easier to share the menu this way. Right, right?!" Her voice heightened and became a little strange, but Nikolai didn't want to make this golden cat run away again so he just smiled and nodded with his eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

'T-this guy... I hate how his smile is so easy to see through! It's too fake, don't laugh! Don't make fun of me!' Selene thought with her heart racing in her chest.

Selene's feelings weren't as icy as she tried to make them appear like so, despite leaning away from him to create space while opening the food app on her phone.

She could feel his gaze on her hands and body, causing her cheeks to blush slightly, constantly reminded of the night they spent together. To her, it was beyond her mind to do something like that before marriage.

"So... what's your favourite dish?" Selene asked, with a sheepish voice, looking at the various cuisines.

"Tepes."

"Hmmm, Tapas?"

"No, Tepes, especially the princess."

The moment she registered what he meant, her face became red; from the moment she forgave her body to him, even though it wasn't entirely, Selene lost the ability to treat him coldly or push him away. The blissful pleasure of his touch and tongue burned into her memory.

'This bastard?! Why is he saying I am his favourite dish.... so embarrassing! Does he have no shame?'

"Idiot..."

"Haha."

'There is the usual Selene; she was so strange that I worried she was mad, but was it just embarrassment?' Nikolai's smile grew larger, his arm reaching around the back of the sofa and resting on her shoulder.

Selene's body jumped, but only for a moment, as she felt his hand. After that, she didn't stop him and let his hand rest on her arm. Maybe she would deny it if asked, but it seemed the princess rather liked the feeling.

"Let's have what you like, Selene." Nikolai's voice was gentle as he spoke beside her cheek, causing the princess to quiver upon feeling his warm breath blow across her cheek.

'This flirty bastard... He has some nerve. How dare he speak beside my ear like that? He wants to eat me? Hmph... don't think I will be the only one being eaten today!'

Selene had already decided what she wanted, but she glanced at him with a slight smile. "Then shall I eat some fresh wolf?"

'Fresh Wolf?'

Nikolai couldn't help but tilt his head with a confused look in his eyes, which caused her to grin mischievously. 'Idiot.'

He leaned forward and kissed the unsuspecting vampire, who made a teasing joke. His lips pressed against hers gently, feeling her soft skin and her plump, juicy lips. Soft to the touch, his tongue easily slipped into the stunned vampire's mouth.

The smell of her sweet saliva lingered in his nose a little, causing Nikolai's heartbeat to rise and the blood to pump through his veins faster and more vigorously than before. She pushed her tongue forward, and their tongues intertwined for a few moments before.

Finally, Selene seemed to wake up. Her eyes widened with her pupils dilating as she pushed him back, her face bright red while pointing at him. "You...you....what did you...do?!"

"I let you eat some fresh wolf, right?"

Selene almost laughed, but the moment she realised her own mistake, she covered her face and tried to make an angry face at him. 'Damn idiot... stupid.... woman-loving beast... ah. I want to punch him!

I am so embarrassed, someone kill me.'

Nikolai knew she had tried to tease him but failed, only for him to tease her even more, but she didn't seem to mind his kiss. 'She is more shy than I thought.' He laughed.

"Serves you right for teasing me," Nikolai said with a cheeky grin, causing Selene's heart to flutter. She felt irritated, yet also amused, and because she lost twice in a row, it seemed she gave up for now.

"Let's just order something to eat.... idiot..."

After that, they had a light lunch while enjoying some sandwiches and cookies. Despite being monsters, both of them seemed to have quite a sweet tooth.

"Huh?" Selene swallowed the sandwich in her mouth and drank some tea before glancing at Nikolai, who had been sitting beside her all this time. "What plan?"

"You didn't invite me here just to eat lunch and flirt with me, right?"

"Pfft! Don't be silly."

Selene denied it while spitting out her tea across the room and looking at Nikolai with her beautiful scarlet eyes in shock. However, it was true. She didn't even have a reason to invite him. 'Why? I was supposed to invite him and then mistreat him what he did... that brute...'

"I guess you are right—I just felt like having lunch. What?! Are you not satisfied with eating with me? Then I won't eat with you!" Selene pouted, crossing her arms and turning away from him.

'Did that one act change her this much?' Nikolai was shocked at how, despite her acting fiercely and rejecting him, it felt like warm water being splashed.

He could feel the difference between Selene today and her in the past. So he took a shot and asked her out. Since he went somewhere with Nikita, it was only fair. "Hey Selene, shall we go for a drive, maybe see a movie or visit the opera?"

"Sure... I don't mind. When are you talking about?"

The words came so naturally that she even felt surprised. 'I can't believe it... Am I really going on a date with him?!

"Now, tonight."

"Heh?!"

"Let's go!" Nikolai grabbed her hand, and the vampire princess could only nod and follow him, the sight causing Wilhelmina to drop the documents she was sorting as the little princess dashed away with a man and climbed into the private elevator just for her.

"Princess?" Wilhelmina would have stopped them, but the smile and rosy cheeks of her master stopped her.

The long-serving werewolf of the princess, both her nanny and midwife, felt stunned to see the genuine smile of her little princess with someone she claimed to hate and dislike so much when alone.

'Is she finally at that age? The princess is finally becoming a woman... I feel a little lonely.'

After that, she stopped doing her normal work and began to write a message, with several women tagged, her sister and the wives of Vladimir.
