The Fallen Vampire

"L-Leader! There's an emergency!"

Even before Vance opened his eyes, the sound of desperation coming from one of his soldiers told him everything he needed to know.

'Something went wrong, but how wrong?'

As Vance rubbed the sleep out of his eyes, he emerged from his tent to stand proudly under the glorious morning sun.

Without even waiting for a report, he walked right past his subordinate and headed toward the captives' tent. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝒃𝙣𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝓶

When he was merely a few feet away, the smell hit him.

Throwing open the flaps, Vance found a bloody hell that was different from any of the others he had seen so far.

Blood was everywhere he looked, and there were two piles of meat in the corner that looked like they had been diced up neatly.

On the ground, the chains that should have contained prisoners were all broken.

Vance didn't know what had happened here but as of right now that did not really matter.

'Vermeil... you're really making things harder than they need to be.'

-

Vermeil was currently washing her face in a nearby river in the hopes of cleaning her dirty mind.

With the rise of the sun came better eyesight and she had finally been able to get a good look at the man who had saved all of them.

Vermeil's mind that had spent countless hours delving into the darkest aspects of the internet was utterly swamped with kinky fantasies upon seeing the most beautiful man she could imagine.

Her lust spiraled out of control when she heard Kuro ask Keran a question she'd previously overlooked.

"Princess, what kind of fallen is that man?"

"...He is the last of the vampires."

So far, the human girl had been relatively quiet throughout this entire ordeal but that new information had broken her vow of silence.

"V-Vampire? L-Like a real one?"

Keran recalled Vermeil's depraved fascinations and nodded her head slowly. "Yes, although he doesn't sparkle."

"Who fucking cares if he sparkles!?!"

Vermeil ran full speed towards Indra and the two strangers came face to face.

As she looked into his enchanting ruby eyes, Vermeil was mesmerized without even realizing it. Although, even if she had known, the likelihood of her caring still wasn't all that high.

"H-Hello, m-my name is-"

"Sit down, be quiet."

"Whatever you say, da- I mean, okay."

Indra immediately turned around to face his former fiancé and her two bodyguards.

"We're far enough away now so we need to talk."

Immediately the girls came to a screeching halt and awaited Indra's next words.

"What is it beloved?"

Ignoring the way Keran addressed him, Indra decided to tackle the most obvious problem.

"What are we going to do with the human?"

The group was currently heading towards fallen territory and they would arrive there in little under two days at their current speed.

Needless to say, Vermeil's presence was going to stick out like a sore thumb.

The best case scenario was that she would be killed immediately. Worst case was that she was tortured for their enjoyment before she died.

Lucia was wrapped comfortably around Indra's collar and she too was curious about what they were going to do with the strange human girl.

Kohaku and Kuro quickly realized that even though Indra asked his question openly, he was really only curious about what his former fiancé would say.

Keran felt a wave of conflicted emotions inside of her.

All her life, she had been raised to hate all of the races of light without exception.

They were bigoted, wrathful, and viewed those different from them as something less than sentient, intelligent beings.

And yet, when Keran was at her lowest after losing the lives of almost all of her soldiers, Vermeil was the one who not only saved her from being violated, but she also took care of her and her guards afterwards.

At first, she believed it may have all been some sort of act.

She was certain that at any moment Vermeil would reveal her true face and attempt to humiliate them.

To her shock, the exact opposite happened.

Vermeil became a prisoner the same as them and endured treatment that even they were not subjected to.

But throughout all of it, Vermeil never treated them any differently.

She had consistently shown the girls kindness even when it was not reciprocated or even acknowledged.

Keran would not go on like this any longer.

She wanted to repay the human girl for her kindness and maybe... she wanted to see if the two could be friends as well.

"She's coming with us. If I say that she belongs to me, no one will think to touch her." Keran said firmly.

She would protect Vermeil the same way she had once protected her.

However, when Kerman's eyes found the human in question, she wanted to take her words back out of the air.

Vermeil was seeming oblivious to what was going on, her only focus was on Indra's perfectly toned ass that was right in front of her.

Her perverted thoughts and fantasies were practically written across her beautiful face.

'Damned human... I'm regretting this already.'

Indra's eyes glanced over at the two furry bodyguards who had yet to comment.

Kohaku looked to be slightly relieved that they were not going to simply abandon the girl who had been so kind to them, even if she was a human.

Kuro on the other hand looked less than pleased but since her Princess had already stated her intentions, she did not feel that it was her place to go against them.

The vampire sighed before turning his attention towards the ring on his finger.

He would've loved to have known Enyo's thoughts, but she had been sleeping peacefully ever since sunrise and he did not wish to disturb her.

"Fine." he muttered.

If Keran wished to keep the human alongside her, he would not object although he was not particularly fond of her.

He just hoped that this decision would not come back to bite them later.

- 2 Days later.

Currently, the group was surrounded by several cultivators with weapons aimed at their necks.

Indra glanced behind him at the human girl who was the cause of all of this mess.

'We should've left her in the fucking forest.'
