Incubus' Blood Harem

Mr Jones wanted to shot up from the chair immediately to stop Kayden, but the haphazard reaction would have just raised suspicion. He cleared his throat and stopped Kayden by raising his voice, whereas Medusa was engrossed in eating. She averted her head towards Kayden with her mouth stuffed with food which made her unable to speak.

"Wait, I will bring them for you."

The old man's loud voice forced Kayden to halt in his place, and he turned around to reply to his father. Things were not going as casually as they always had been, because Jones never fetched anything for his son. Instead made Kayden move around for various small chores so he stayed fit.

"Come on dad, I will get them by myself."

He waved his hand in the air to make Jones settle back, but the old man was persistent in stopping Kayden. He leaped forward when his son did not listen, Jones used his super speed and approached Kayden's arm so he could forcefully make him halt.

"Why do you never listen to me, young man!? I told you I will get them for you, then why are you being persistent?"

Jones nearly yelled at him which startled both of the kids. Medusa stayed put and shoved the big bite down her throat while watching the two of them.

Kayden on the other hand withdrew his arm gently and raised his one eyebrow while inquiring.

"Okay, okay, I won't go in there. But why are you being so weird? Did you not sleep well last night?"

Kayden questioned his father's odd yet imposing behaviour which made him a bit suspicious.

"Yeah yeah, I slept well. But aren't you talking a lot lately huh!? Now have breakfast hurriedly, you are already late for the academy."

Jones handled the situation with his quick responses and managed to persuade Kayden to move away. Whereas Medusa appeared to be pretty calm over the whole situation which came off as a surprise to Jones.

Although as an elder he could clearly understand the emotional disturbances and troubles of each one of them. It was evident Medusa intended to avoid Kayden by not speaking in his matters. Nonetheless he complied with the words and dawdled towards the dining table. Mr Jones inhaled deeply with relief and went inside the storeroom leaving the two of them alone in the kitchen.

[Inside the storeroom]

The door opened and Jones saw Kayden's shoes right in the front of the door. He ignored them and approached the big trunk which was put at the end of the small storeroom. Jones looked back to focus on their voices to confirm none of them was planning to come in. He could not let Kayden see Malcolm in that terrible state, it would only trigger his emotions once again and it was still unclear how his feelings worked.

'Great! The door is closed, so the stench should not go outside to entice Kayden.'

He crouched down and opened the trunk when something hit his abdomen with a great force. Jones fell backwards on his butt with a muffled groan because he did not intend to alert Kayden or Medusa. If the succubus came to know about that she would definitely harm Kayden for laying a hand over her servant.

Even if she was involved and attracted to Kayden, Medusa owned Malcolm because she was the one who turned him into an incubus. And to her Malcolm was like a trophy and her bodyguard, only she was allowed to hurt him and no one else. She could literally use Malcolm as she wanted because his life was a blessing given by her. Hence Medusa also used him as nourishment by drinking his blood when required. [As in chapter 2 scene]

Somehow Jones survived that hard blow and got up only to peek inside the box once again. At least Jones was aware there could only be Malcolm and nobody else. Jones was stunned to witness the speed of Malcolm's recuperation.

"How did you even heal so fast? I thought it would take at least four days to regenerate and heal."

He seemed to be talking to Malcolm who was now sitting in the trunk with his silhouette slightly shaking due to weakness. Although his healing tendency had increased, but some things could not be fixed like his face. Kayden badly disfigured him which resulted in multiple different bruises. His face still had a hole in the mouth and throat, apart from that he was almost healed.

Malcolm lifted his hand shakily and placed it on Jones' shoulder. The old man could clearly see the rage in his crimson eyes regarding whatever Kayden did to him. And his grudge against Kayden was not a surprise if Malcolm intended to avenge himself in near future. But would he go that far to rebel against Medusa' orders?

"Four days? Hah! Or you wanted me (coughs) to die?"

He nearly choked while complaining in a coarse voice, whereas Jones could clearly understand his position.

"Still humorous, eh!"

Jones chuckled softly and helped him to get out of the box. Malcolm did not object because it was wise at that moment. He needed air and food to fill those literal holes in his body. However perhaps it was impossible because of Kayden's poisonous tentacles.

"Water….I need water."

He demanded while sitting on the trunk after closing it. Jones still supported Malcolm out of utter guilt and pity. After all he was in that state because of Kayden and only he was to blame but perhaps Jones felt guilty somewhere.

"Come out with me, I will feed you. Medusa was also asking for you, I cannot lie to her anymore and for long."

Jones tried to support him to walk out of the storeroom but Malcolm tugged at his shirt and refused to accompany him.

"No, no. I can't go out like this. I….I don't want Medusa to see me like this."

Undoubtedly Malcolm was also conscious about his image in front of the opposite gender. He clenched Jones' shirt and glanced at him with pleading eyes.
