Bloodmooor residence five days after admission.
"Why did you avoid me at school?"
I asked Seraph the moment she stepped into the sitting area. I had been searching for her everywhere, but I couldn’t find her; she seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Since teachers left later than the students, I had arrived home earlier and decided to ambush her. I didn’t like how she was behaving.
"Lucian I’m exhausted, don’t talk to me "
She said in a snarky voice.
"Did I do something wrong sister?"
I asked my voice eerily calm.
"Did you?"
She snapped back. This was going nowhere. I stood up and walked towards her towering over her.
She took a step back. She’s never done that.
"Just tell me what I did wrong to incur your wrath," I said, my voice softer," just talk to me instead of avoiding me, it’s becoming childish."
Her face turned red at my implications, I could feel her anger was on the verge of blowing over.
"How could you, how could you do such a thing?"
She murmured under her breath.
"What did I do, I don’t remember doing anything bad. Is it because of the delay at Rothvile?"
I was trying to make sense of what she was saying. I tried to hold her wrist, but before I could do that, a magic circle appeared in front of her.
A burst of fire shot out of the circle aimed directly at me. I activated a defense spell. Her attack was absorbed into the shield made of several glowing magic circles.
"Okay, are you trying to kill your favorite brother?"
I said looking at her. Just what did I do to make her this cross? I thought we were past this stage of fist-first.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t know why I did that."
Seraphs said her voice dropping to a whisper. I sighed and walked towards her deactivating the shield.
The fire spell she had used wasn’t really that lethal, the most damage it would cause was burning the corner of my clothes.
It wouldn’t be the first time she has done that. She really had problems controlling her anger towards me most of the time.
"Can we talk now?"
I said calmly and took her hand. I led her towards my room as she followed behind me, her whole demeanor changing to that of a sick puppy.
"You know, I really enjoy going to the academy. Don’t avoid me again."
I said as we entered my room.
"Why did you have to do that, Lucian?" she mumbled again as tears started to gather in her eyes. I led her to my bed and sat down with her in my lap.
As I grew taller, we had gone from drinking from my wrist to my neck, which required her to sit on my lap. This had become sort of normal between us.
"Just tell me what’s going on, sister, okay."
Her hand came and held my cheeks forcing me to maintain eye contact with her. She took a deep breath before getting off my lap and standing in front of me as she looked down at me condescendingly.
That was the seraph I knew. Her eyes still had traces of tears, but it just made her eyes shine brighter.
"Did you sleep with mother?"
My eyes widened at her question. She found that out faster than I had anticipated. Her temper tantrum was really deserved.
"Yes."
I maintained eye contact with her as I said this. Her eyes twitched a little but her expression didn’t change.
"Why would you do that, Lucian? It’s immoral."
I chuckled and fell back on the bed.
"Say the one who started to feed on her brother while he was still a child."
That seemed to have done it. I felt her weight settle on my thighs before she leaned over and her furious face came into view.
My hands came and wrapped around her waist.
"That’s not fair."
She muttered.
"Life’s not fair Seraph."
She eventually lay on my chest, her breath tickling my neck.
"Did mother seduce you, I wouldn’t put it past her."
She asked softly.
"No, it was the other way round."
She lifted her head and looked at me in surprise. She was now clearly noticing her baby brother had grown.
"But why?"
"I don’t know."
"It hurts that you always put mother first in everything."
"She is the head, and don’t patronize me, you also do the same."
She was quiet for a full minute before sitting up abruptly.
"Why did you pick alchemy in school I thought you would pick spell casting, you seem to love it ?"
She changed the subject.
"Because it’s broader and carries a magnitude of different opportunities and discoveries."
She shook her head and scoffed at my worship.
"It is nothing but a mere thing fit for lower nobles and commoners, I do not see the benefit of dirtying yourself directly."
I laughed. She has been singing about this for as long as I could remember.
"When will you let it go and just admit that alchemy has some use?"
She shook her head adamantly.
"How is the circulation of happiness?"
She sat up her eyes filled with excitement.
"Wonderful, most nobles are buying them even from the other kingdoms. It was really a clever invention."
My sister laughed amused at her joke.
Happiness was something I had accidentally created while testing a new potion on a subject. It causes one to lose emotions as a whole and feelings.
The consumer will be aware of their surroundings and life but everything will be dulled. Unlike the ilustor that caused hallucinations and a temporary increase in strength, this one basically gets rid of most of the five senses and emotions.
It wasn’t as addictive as the ilustor but Happiness destroyed all emotions.
It was sold in very small bottles since it was liquid and tightly sealed with magic. An exclusive product meant for the nobles. That had been Seraph’s idea since she was in charge of selling and distribution while her mother focused on making it.
"You are the best."
I praised her. She beamed at the praise.
"Do you want to try something sister ?"
I asked her slowly my hands going to her thighs and pushing the dress she was wearing up.
She blushed, understanding what I was implying. My hands moved to her inner thigh, rubbing smooth circles on her soft flesh.
"No, we can’t do this."
She whispered harshly as she tried to get away from my touch.
"But you are aroused sister."
I said my voice echoing in the quiet room. She blushed. Vampires have strong senses, very strong senses.
I pulled her up until she was sitting on my arousal. She tried to move, but I pushed my hips upward, causing her to fall onto me.
"Kiss me."
I said my voice low. She hesitated for a bit before leaning over and kissing me, or trying to.
She took my lower lip and sucked on it before releasing it and looking up at me.
"I kissed you."
She said her voice was shaky.
"Sister, you’ve never kissed anyone, have you?"
She didn’t answer.
"Then let your little brother show you what real kissing is."
I sat up and overturned us. She landed on her back in the middle of the bed with me on top of her.
She looked beautiful, her face flushed as she shyly glanced up at me before avoiding my eyes.
She acted like a maiden would act.
"I’ll show everything."
I mumbled against her lips and kissed her. I started slowly, caressing her lips softly with mine, getting her acclimated with my touch.
Her lips started to follow my movements as we both enjoyed the slow stare.
My hand came to her cheeks and pressed her jaws gaining access to her mouth. I plunged my tongue inside tangling her shy tongue.
She tried to avoid me but eventually fell into the rhythm as we exchanged saliva and lust.
"Breath sister."
I released her from the kiss and mumbled against her lips. She had been holding her breath the entire time.
"I....haa .... can’t."
She said between deep breaths.
"Just breathe through your nose."
I leaned down and took her lips again without waiting for her response. This time she seemed to have understood the Mechanics.
Her kiss was soft and cautious as her little tongue wrapped around mine. Small moans escaped with every tug.
"How is it?"
She was breathing hard, a string of saliva having escaped the corner of her mouth. Her eyes were still unfocused glowing softly from arousal.
"I can see it was good."
I leaned in and licked the saliva that had escaped and moved down to her neck and kissed her pulsating jugular.
Her body trembled as I peppered kisses on her neck. I bit softly, leaving a tooth mark on her pale skin.
I kneeled between her spread legs and pushed the dress she was wearing up until past her waist.
Her hands came and covered her womanhood as she subconsciously tried to close her legs, but I was fast enough to settle between them.
"Are you getting shy now?"
