Selena crossed her arms while leaning on her door. She was inside her room, but her expression looked complicated.
On the other hand, Risa was sitting on Nathan’s bed as he explained, “I’m thinking about letting you suck me once every week. What do you think?”
“Can I really do that? I’ll be grateful.” Risa nodded. There was no way she would reject this offer.
“Yes. However, after coming to the ancient library, there is a new hypothesis regarding my blood.” Nathan raised one finger, his expression turning solemn.
Risa gulped down, listening to him seriously. Her body tensed up. She knew what Nathan wanted, and she believed she had prepared for this.
To her surprise, Nathan dropped a bomb, a very big one. “My blood seems to be able to make you a royalty or even a progenitor with enough time. According to the fairy queen, you can actually become a duchess after a month or two.”
Risa was dumbstruck. What did she just hear? She had accepted her fate to only reach her full potential as a countess, but that changed when Nathan transformed her not long ago.
And this time, he claimed he could make her a duchess within two months? It didn’t even stop there. He even claimed she could become a royal or even a progenitor. How could she believe this?
“Are you playing with me?” Risa licked her lips, having a hard time holding back her drool. This temptation was simply too big. Even if Selena poured the resources to her, she didn’t think she would go beyond her current rank. It was hard to believe Nathan had the ability. At the same time, he had shown enough proof.
“I’m not playing with you. That is only a prediction. My blood might need more time to let you evolve to a duchess, or this might not be true at all. Nevertheless, I think it’s worth the shot.”
Risa’s arms were shaking. Her face looked more and more desperate. “Are you sure?”
Nathan nodded. “And this is why I want to talk to you. First of all, I hope you don’t tell this information to Selena. I’m just afraid that if she ends up knowing you can become a progenitor, it will just drop her motivation in summoning Lilith.
“The second reason is that it’s not proven yet. Of course, I want to make you stronger. After all, it will make Selena and our team stronger.
“The third reason is to put some conditions.”
“Conditions…” Risa could easily agree with the first two reasons. As for the third reason, Risa looked down and started reaching for her button.
As if realizing what she was planning to do, Nathan grabbed her hands and said, “Stop it.”
“But…” Risa’s hands were shaking. There was no way she would let this opportunity go.
Nathan simply shook his head. “I know when is the appropriate time, and when is not. I want you to agree to three simple conditions.
“First, you will only suck me every week. That’s the limit. And you are unable to suck me if within that said week we are in the midst of a dangerous situation. Even though Anubis is there, it’ll be annoying if I’m weakened during that period.
“Of course, if I deem it necessary to give you blood, I will do so without hesitation. After all, your strength is necessary.”
It was a reasonable condition. Risa furiously nodded. “I understand.”
“The second condition is to let me record every change in your body. This way, I can study about my own blood. I’m not talking about only vampires.”
“Ah! Are you wondering if your blood can affect other beings aside from vampires?”
“Yes.”
“I understand. I’ll follow your instructions.”
“Last but not least, I want you to do something for me in the future. This is just a test, so I’ll only tell you about it in the future. I guarantee that this is something you can easily do, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
After listening to the third condition, Risa actually rose from her chair before falling to one knee.
“Risa?” Nathan was taken aback by her sudden action.
“You probably don’t understand how important one’s rank is among vampires. The rank can completely change your entire life, but it doesn’t matter if you want to learn about it or not.
“This is my oath to you. As long as you are together with my summoner, I will become your maid and consider you as my second master.
“In this world, my heart and priority might belong to Selena, but my body will belong to you.
“If I can really become a vampire progenitor, or at least see the potential of me becoming a progenitor, I will do my best to fulfill anything you request.”
Nathan looked into her eyes before closing his own eyes, falling into deep thought. After a few seconds, Nathan said in a serious tone, “I understand. Thank you, Risa.”
Despite being able to become a duchess, Risa remained grateful to the one that gave her the opportunity. As if to remind herself to never be arrogant, she even swore to become his maid in this world.
“No. It should be me who is thankful.”
“Still, you don’t have to beat yourself too much.”
“Ahaha. I’m just trying to avoid unnecessary conflicts. In the end, I can’t live in this world forever, nor can I give you the best gift I can offer. And I will do my best so that you two can always be together… I mean, we three can always be together.” find-more-stories-on-MVLeMpYr
Nathan scratched the back of his head. “You don’t have to do that.” freewēbnoveℓ.com
“Eh? But aren’t you trying to—” Before she finished her words, Nathan cut her off with a stern tone. “No. It’s different. Even though my actions look that way, have I ever gone overboard?”
“That’s…” Risa looked down. Now that she thought about it, Nathan acted within the limits. If he wanted Selena, he could probably be more aggressive.
“I don’t plan to be manipulative, at least for the relationship.”
Risa smiled wryly. “I understand. I’ll respect your decision.”
“Alright.” Nathan spread his arms with a smug smile. “Come. Just don’t suck me dry.”
“Your phrasing is always inviting misunderstanding.” Risa shook her head helplessly but still came to the bed with her mouth wide open.
