The Fallen Vampire-Chapter 45: Temporary Lodging
Chapter 45: Temporary Lodging
In the woods outside of Ferran, there was a decent sized home lying beside a crystal clear lake.
This was where the unlikely group of five had ended up, and this was where they would be staying for the foreseeable future.
'It's quiet... it's so calm and peaceful out here that I believe I might progress smoothly in my cultivation.' Indra thought fondly.
He honestly couldn't believe that she was living somewhere like this all by herself.
"Welcome to my home everyone!" Lucia said proudly.
She slithered up to the front door and held it open, gesturing for all of her friends and Vermeil to come inside.
Lucia's place was quite nice and spacious on account of her large lamia body, and all furniture and decorations seemed to be fairly nice as well.
"This place is so nice! It makes my old dorm look like a shithole!" Vermeil said excitedly.
Evidently, Lucia seemed to take great pride in her decorating as the human girl's complement put a smile on her face.
"She's right, it is a beautiful place, Lucia." Enyo added.
"I can't believe that you were living here all alone." Said Keran.
"Ah well my family wanted to stay in the city but I really loved it out here, so I kept the place and made it my own."
"Are you sure we aren't imposing on you?" Indra suddenly asked.
Even though she had vehemently proposed this idea, he still felt a little bit bad about it.
Perhaps it was because he was the kind of person who didn't like having his own space intruded on that he was also wary of entering the spaces of others.
A habit one picks up from living their life as an introverted creature.
"I told you it's fine, I'm actually really grateful to have you all here!" She said honestly. "The place gets really lonely sometimes and I really missed having a full house.."
Noticing the sincerity in her words, Indra decided not to question her any further and tried his best to relax.
He may not have felt the pain that came with loneliness, but that didn't mean that he was unsympathetic to those who did.
He had to find a way to behave normally, just so that he did not make her feel as though he had no wish to be around her.
"Oh, If you like I can show you guys the bathrooms and you can go freshen up! In the meantime I will get dinner started!"
The mention of food made Indra remember his own empty stomach, and he glanced at the human Vermeil once again.
This time she caught his gaze that was glued to her porcelain neck and she knew that her moment had finally arrived.
All of the vampire fan fiction that she'd written was only preparing her for this very moment!
Calmly and confidently, she walked over to Indra while moving her hair to one side.
Using A-class acting skills, she spoke in the most sincere and honest tone she could as a way to appeal to his nature.
"Umm... I haven't taken the time to thank you properly for all the help you've given me so... if you ever want to drink from me or anything... you only have to ask."
'Fuck yea! I nailed that shit!'
And indeed, Vermeil had seemed to nail it.
Her offer contained only sincerity and none of her usual fetishization of him, making it hard to refuse her.
And he wasn't sure if it was just his stomach talking, but she smelled really nice and only served to further whet his appetite.
"Are you sure about this? I will have to bite you, you know?"
Vermeil suppressed a small shudder as she tried to keep her excitement in check.
"I know and it's fine. I want to repay you and I don't want you to go hungry..."
Nodding in acceptance, Indra placed his hand on Vermeil's waist. "...don't get any weird thoughts from this either."
'If you say that you'll make it harder for me not to have weird thoughts!'
"I heard that."
'Fuck!'
Since the human girl was quite a bit shorter than him, he had to lift her up so that he could reach her neck.
He gave her pale flesh a hesitant lick to numb the area, earning a not so discreet shiver.
Opening his mouth, his two fangs punctured her neck and drained her blood, and he began to hear a slew of thoughts running through her mind.
'... I could die tomorrow, and I would be completely fine with that outcome.'
'Why does this feel so good...?' 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮
'Don't moan, whatever you do don't moan!!'
Normally Indra would have stopped right there after she started being weird, but he was actually starting to feel a tiny bit strange as well.
Vermeil's blood was sweet and delicious sure, but he could also feel a strange trade forming between the two.
He felt like he was taking something from her, in addition to sifting through her deepest buried memories.
She really did spend a lot of time watching those vampire movies, and it was easy to see why she was so obsessed with him.
It also seemed she lived a very lonely life on earth... with her only companions being the readers she posted her fan fiction for.
He could also feel how scared and anxious she secretly was... about being alone in a new world and surrounded by monsters.
In his mind, he decided to treat her a little better, atleast until she started saying perverse things again.
After drinking for around three minutes, Indra noticed something leaving his body and being given to Vermeil.
He couldn't exactly pinpoint what it was, as in the next second he was grabbed forcefully by his ear and pulled away from her neck.
"D-Don't you think you two are getting too into this?!" Enyo yelled.
Indra was admittedly a bit foggy headed so it took him a moment to gather his focus.
But once he did, he could see why she was so upset.
Vermeil's cheeks were so red it looked like she'd just gone for a twenty mile run, and her eyes were rolling around lazily in her head.
A clear line of drool could be seen running from her lips, and at some point she had wrapped her legs around his waist and slowly started to grind her pelvis against his midsection.
But really, this was all a complete and total misunderstanding.
"Ah... whoops."
