Vampire Romance by Rin Tan Qian Yong (ebook pdf reader for pc .txt) 📕

"Kira, I thought I told you not to enter the northern section!" Zen's voice thundered in the interior of the room. Kira flinched, her eyes widened at the cruelty and harshness in his voice. "I-I didn't mean to, I ju-just..."she shivered as she remembered what she saw. "What is it? Can't find excuses for enteri-" He stopped abruptly when he saw tears well up in Kira's eyes and form clear droplets shaped like pearls that rolled down her beautiful porcelain face.

"K-Kira? What's wrong? Did I upset you? I'm sorry, okay?! Please, please don't cry..." Zen said desperately, he moved forward to put his arms around her in an attempt to comfort her. "Blood..." Zen heard her whisper in a frightened voice as she put her arms on her head. "Kira?" He asked in worry, Kira's irises had contracted to that of a thin line. "Blood was everywhere! T-There was that creature with the..." She yelled, half sobbing. "Kira, please, try to calm down... That's why I told you not to go there, Kira!" Zen said, still hugging her, trying to calm the poor girl down.

Suddenly, feathers began sprouting from below Kira's neck. "W-Wha-" Zen gasped as he stared at the wings sprouting from Kira's back. "K-Kira..."

Kira let out a loud scream. One of pain and terror.

Somewhere out there, a red-pink haired girl flinched as her ears tweaked continuously. "K-Kira..." She whispered to no one in particular, "What is it this time...?"

"S-Stop!" Zen yelled at Kira, almost begging. Blood was dripping out of the wounds the wings created. "Please! Kira, you're hurting yourself!" He tried again. But Kira wouldn't listen. Or rather, it was out of her control. Graceful wings, now fully sprouted, extended from her back, somewhere below her neck. Zen eyed Kira's wings, stoned. Her wings were mostly pure white, but there were tints of raven black in them. Intricate, pretty, yet painful to watch as Kira writhed in agony.

Not long after Zen's numerous times to get Kira to calm down, a shadow flitted across Zen's room and Zen looked up to see his window opened, with a lady standing on it. "Who are you, elf?" He eyed her sharp eyes and small eyes.

"The name's Katelina Presler Vancogh, Kate, in short. There's no time to waste. Get Kira to return to herself!" The stranger rushed. "R-Right." Zen agreed, "So how do we go about it?" Katelina rushed to the broken girl, "Kira, calm down, Hadernogh Vag Geneishto Pragosth." Zen looked in surprise as the wings returned to Kira's body, forming a 'V' shaped scar on her back after Katelina's chant. "What were you saying just now?" Zen questioned Katelina. "Words. To let her calm down. More of a seal. We'll tell you more when Kira's ready to." Katelina replied confidently.

Life rushed back into Kira's eyes as she recognised Katelina's familiar figure. "K-Kate! What're you doing here?"

"I heard you just now, so I rushed here to help you."

"Thanks, Kate."

"It's fine. I'm just glad you're alright. What happened?"

"Nothing much... Just... I just saw something in the library. I think it startled and upset me a little so I changed." Kira answered quietly.

Zen interrupted their conversation "Kira, are you okay?" "Ah... Y-Yes." She blushed as she discerned the deep concern in his voice. Katelina watched quietly, grasping the situation immediately. "I'll wait outside." She said, "At least until you're done talking." "So who is she?" Zen asked after the elf walked out of the door. "We're best friends and we've been together since we were babies. Kate knows everything about me and she knows how to solve it, like she did just now." She smiled after answering, "Why do you ask?"

"No particular reason, you two just look awfully close."

"Oh... Haha, 'cause we're childhood friends and all." "Yeah," Zen said quietly. "Hey, are you guys done?" Katelina strode through the door, "I got tired of waiting and all that." She added. Elves were impatient creatures, as sharp as they were, they were fast, and they hated to wait. "And uh, vampire, I want to live here, gimme a room." Katelina said. "Eh?!" Kira and Zen said together at the same time, synchronising perfectly. "You... want to live here?" Kira repeated her words as a question. "What the hell are you saying?" Zen replied, astonished.

"I want to live here so ask one of your subordinates to bring me to an unoccupied room. You have millions of rooms here, don't be selfish!" Katelina said. He sighed, "God damn it, but just because you're Kira's friend." He snapped his fingers and a blond vampire entered the room. "You asked for me, Master Zen?" The vampire asked politely. He put one hand below his chest and the other one behind him and took a bow. "Yes. Prepare a room for this lady here. The ones on the Sciper's Deck."

The vampire looked surprised, but he said in a voice of clarity and confidence, "Yes, Master." Then, he stepped backwards toward the door, walked out of the room, took another bow, and closed the door softly. "Hey vamp, what's the Sciper's Deck? You're not going to put me in some digusting, smelly room, are you?" Kate asked. "It depends on how you think of me and how much you trust me. Either way, you'll see." He stated. "Whatever..." Katelina mumbled, "But oh boy, that vampire was a hottie!"

"I'm not sure you'd like him if you knew how old he was." Zen countered. "And how old are you, vampire?" Katelina smirked. "I'm Zen, stop calling me 'vampire', it's irritating." He muttered, his eyebrows coming together to form a 'V' above his eyes. "Okay Zen, how old are you?" Zen hesitated a little, "1536. I was born then. On the 5th of June." "Woah." Katelina answered.

"Yeah." There was a hint of sadness in his voice that Katelina detected. "Do you hate being old?" Katelina asked straight-forwardly. "Well, would you like being a creature that lived for centuries and feasted on human blood?" Zen replied with another question.

"Well, okay, point taken. I'll go to that whatever deck now." Kate said as she walked towards the door. "Do you know how to get there?" Zen asked. "O-Of course," Kate replied, holding her head up high. "It's the Sciper's Deck, don't forget that!" He yelled after her and heard her asking him to shut up. "That's just too much pride." Zen said as Katelina slammed the door shut in her search for the deck. "Well, elves are very prideful creatures." Kira said. Zen nodded in agreement, "True..."

Katelina walked in the barely lighted deck, her pink-red hair ruffling in the light breeze from the air-con. "I wonder what that stupid deck is..." "Oh! Miss. Katelina! There you are!" Katelina heard a rugged voice call out to her. She whipped her head around to see Frilt Tayn Grovonski walking towards her, his posture straight and tall. "Frilt, yeah? Just call me Kate." Frilt nodded in response, "As you wish."

"Well, what are you doing here?"

"Oh, the Master sent me to guide you to your room." Frilt answered. "Oh, that busybody. I can get there myself." Katelina boasted. Frilt chuckled, "Miss. Ka- I mean, Kate, i would love to believe you but... You're walking in the opposite direction."

"What, o-of course I knew that!" Katelina yelled in embarassment. She began walking beside Frilt, blushing ever so slightly. "Hey, Frilt." Katelina called. "Yes?" The vampire replied. "The Sciper's Deck, what's so special about it?" She asked. "Ah, it's the deck consisting of the few most expensive rooms. Naturally the Master's room is of the highest quality but other than really special guests, Sciper's rooms are never used." Frilt answered. "So you were so shocked just now, because according to your standards, I'm not special?" Katelina said teasingly. "Ah! Uh... no! I didn't mean any offense by that! I apologise if you got the wrong idea!" Frilt panicked. "It's just that for the Sciper's Deck, just one of its room costs a few millions and the Master hasn't used one in a while!" The vampire explained hurriedly. When Frilt and Katelina reached her designated room, he said, "The Master said that you can feel free to walk about this mansion. He'll specifically ask some vampires to wait on you, whatever you need, all you need to do is get it from them." "Wait, he's here?!." Katelina exclaimed. looking around her surroundings. "Well, he's my Master, I can communicate with him anytime, it doesn't really matter where he is." Frilt answered as he pushed the door open to reveal a room with forest green wallpaper. It had real trees growing and a hammock hanging from the trees. Butterflies and some tamed animals moved about freely. Everything about the room was just as Katelina had imagined the jungle to be, and she loved it, considering that jungles were elves' natural habitat.

Katelina gasped in surprise as she whispered quietly out of wonder, "W-Wow. This... This is..." Katelina paused, unable to complete her sentence in her shocked state. "Wonderful." Frilt finished for her, "I know." He said and paused before continuing, "Master Zen... He... Might not seem like it, but he is actually a really caring man." Katelina just stared back at Frilt in return. "Yes?" Frilt asked in curiosity. "No, nothing. I was just wondering about how much you cared for Zen." Kate replied.

"Oh, oh yes. That must be because I've been serving him for a long time." Frilt explained. "Is that so? For how long?" Katelina questioned. "Hm, my entire family, the Grovonskis were born to serve Master Zen's family. I had been trained since young and have been by the Master's side since I was but a baby."

"Woah, that's some hardcore service there."

Frilt mildly laughed at Katelina's choice of words. "Yes, I guess you could put it that way. but it was such a pleasure to serve him. And it will always be. He never neglected any of us and would always care for his people." Frilt stated, sounding very serious. "That's kind of cool. I mean, the bond you have with him," Katelina said. "Yes, I suppose so. I'm the only servant here whom close to the Master. Probably because I've served him since he was born."

Frilt paused and apologised, "Oops, sorry, I didn't mean to blabber on."

"Oh, no no, continue on, I don't mind." Katelina encouraged. Frilt smiled gently, "Kate, you are very easy to talk to." "Ah, um, I uh... Thank you." Katelina stuttered and flushed as she felt her heart skip a beat. Suddenly, it was as if fire surged within her, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Frilt's shoulder. "K-Kate?!" Frilt stared wide-eyed at Katelina, shocked by her sudden change of personality. When he looked at her, it was as if she was a different person, her irises became thinner strips, her eyelashes lengthened, and the entire aura she was giving out just changed. "You- You've got to be kidding me... This isn't your mating period is it?" By now, Katelina was engulfed in her emotions, unable to give Frilt a proper reply.

Elves had this serious flaw. When their mating season arrived, their emotions of love would be amplified to be stronger, and they would seduce their partner by all means. Just to accomplish one goal: Make love with their mates.

Katelina planted a kiss
