For eight years, I remained by her side until I finally entered Rosse Magical Academy.
Upon entering that school, I became famous in my first day. It was pretty boring actually.
I have to put on a smile and pretend to like everyone. Being in this Academy broaden my network. The noble students here will be the future masters of their families, if I became close with them, I will be able to use them in the future.
Everday, I was missing Violet that's why one day, I used my dark magic to control a black cat. Through the cat's eyes, I can see everything the cat sees.
The cat was able to enter the Trancy household safely and I saw a carriage in front of the mansion. A woman wearing a golden armor greeted Violet.
They were going somewhere, I jumped on top of the carriage and sat down there as it started heading somewhere.
I found out that Violet was heading to the palace library and since I couldn't enter the library, I watched her from the window.
I did this everyday until the knight named Evelyn found out about Violet's healing abilities.
I was glad to see Violet earn another friend who was willing to help her.
I watched her and followed them wherever they went, even when they started heading to the town and started healing animals and children.
Yiren Zhou, this was Violet's fake name as she roams around the town in disguise.
Seeing that Evelyn was not an ordinary knight, I felt relieved. They were doing the same routine everyday that's why I decided to undo my spell on the cat and focus on my studies now since exam week was coming up.
----
I went home to surprise Violet on her birthday and we celebrated it with her friends.
What surprised me was when Violet started acting distant to me that night. Watching her leave the hall with her fiance made my chest ached. Did she fell in love with him?
The way she looked at him... It was so different...
I clenched my fists and turned away. I have to do something now. I cannot allow her to fall for someone else, she's mine.
----
I was lying down on my bed, staring at the ceiling as I tried to control the hunger that I was feeling. I can't go out yet to hunt for food, I need to make sure that everyone was sleeping.
Knock, knock.
I sat down upon hearing the knock. Who could it be?
I went and opened the door only to see Violet. After what happened, I was surprised to see her. "Violet--Ah, I mean, Lady--
"Hold it. I want to talk with you."
What does she wants to talk about? I moved a side and let her enter before I closed the door. When I turned and faced her, I was surprised to see her bow at me.
"I'm sorry for what happened earlier, brother.. I didn't mean any of those words, it was not me who said those words!"
The thing that happened earlier?... Her gaze filled with feelings for Alyn? "What do you mean?"
She sighed. "Earlier, I was possessed by an evil spirit. Prince Alyn helped me out, he can actually see bad spirits because of his affinity for light. This was not the first time that the spirit tried controlling my body."
I listened patiently as she told me everything. I started to understand why she was acting so weirdly earlier. .
"Prince Alyn believed that I must have touched a cursed object that's why the spirit of that object keeps on trying to possess my body. The only thing that can stop it is by destroying the cursed object from where it came from."
I am so glad to learn that she didn't fall for him. I still have a chance to change things between them.
I sighed in relief. "So that's why you were not yourself earlier. I can identify a cursed object because of my affinity for darkness, I will help you find it, Violet."
"I just came here to clear this up so, I'll return to my room now." She told me with a smile. "Thank you for listening, good night, brother."
I didn't want her to leave yet that's why I grabbed her wrist. "Wait... I didn't said that you can leave yet."
She pouted and turned to me. "But I'm so sleepy! I had a hard time sleeping earlier because of this but now it is solved, I can have a peaceful sleep!"
I smiled. I won't let her leave so easily. "You have to make it up for me you know. I was hurt earlier. I thought you finally fell head over heels with that prince."
She frowned. "As if that's ever going to happen. You know how impossible that is... What do you want me to do?"
"I was supposed to ask you for a dance earlier." I let go of het wrist and offered my hand to her instead. "Can I have this dance?"
She pouted, "How about the music?"
How I wish I can kiss those pouting lips right now. Sigh.
"How about you sing?"
"I can't sing. I don't have a beautiful voice."
"That's not important, as long as we have music, we can dance." I paused and held her chin, I leaned down to her level. "But I would definitely prefer the sound of your mo--" I paused. Oops, I'll be scaring her if I made my motives known to her. "Any sound coming from your mouth would be lovely for me."
Since the moonlight coming from my window was shining on her face, I can clearly see how red her face turned. Ah, teasing Violet is so satisfying.
"OWw!"
My cheeks were suddenly pinched by her.
"You idiotic brother! What kind of things are you learning at school?! Your teases became worse! I want my pure and loving brother back!"
I furrowed my brows. "Let go!"
She let go before she crossed her arms and puffed out her cheeks. "Hmpf. I should tell daddy to transfer you to another school!"
"Stop calling me your brother." I mumbled lowly as I pouted.
She looked at me as she wondered what I just mumbled, but then she turned back to glaring at me. "Next time I won't go easy on you!"
"You're becoming so unladylike as you grow." I sighed.
"Did you say something?"
I sighed. How many times did I sighed already?
I guess I don't have any choice but to use my title as her 'brother' to get close to her.
That's why, I wrapped my arms around her small waist and bent down to her level, burying my face on her neck. "Let your brother hug you like this for a while."
Her scent entered my nostrils, intoxicating me. I love the scent of sweet pea on her. How I wish I can take her now but sadly... I need to control myself.
I licked my lips. I'm hungry. I want to have a taste of her.
"I missed you, Violet."
"I missed you too... I have so many things to tell you, you know."
"Me too... Who wants to go first?" I nuzzled my nose against her skin, I'm so addicted with this scent of hers.
"Mine is too long, why don't you go first? We don't keep secrets from each other so tell me everything, okay?"
I know how much Violet cares for me that's why I'm going to use this as my advantage to get closer to her.
"I'm a Catastrophe rank monster. I ranked up after father and a small match."
"Wow... That's actually amazing, I'm so proud of you, brother."
Now then, time to use one of my special card to win her affection.
I straightened my back and pulled her close to my chest this time. "Hn... But ever since I ranked up... I've started craving for something."
If it's her, I know she will accept it.
"Craving? Are you perhaps hungry? Do you want to have some midnight snack?" She raised her head and smiled.
Oh Violet, I'm sorry for taking advantage of you right now... but I just love you too much.
I touched her cheek. "I'm afraid I might have to distance myself from you, Violet."
Yes, that's the look I've been waiting for you to give me, a worried and concerned look.
"What do you mean?"
I stared at her for a while before I spoke. "As I grow stronger, my desire for flesh and blood becomes stronger.. I need to stop approaching you since I don't want to hurt you. I'm afraid that one day, I won't be able to control myself from... eating you."
She smiled at me, the smile that I've always loved. But of course, I didn't forget to act surprised since I need to make her believe that I was having a hard time telling her this.
"It's okay. I told you, Luke is still Luke even if you are not a human."
"Do you understand what I'm saying right now? I'm saying that I might lose control and eat you." I frowned.
Oh my pure and innocent Violet, I'm so sorry for deceiving you right now. I'm really sorry.
She nodded. "Yes. I do. That's why it's okay. I'm not afraid of you because even if you're labeled a monster, you are more human than human can ever be."
I couldn't help but be touched when I heard her say this, it made me feel a little bit guilty for deceiving her... only a little bit.
She raised her hands and touched my cheeks. "That's why it's okay... to take a bite if you can't control your hunger anymore... You are the most precious family I have, it's okay, Luke... it's okay to take a bite, I won't mind."
One more push to make her decision firm.
"Violet... Please don't do this. Don't say that." I let go of her waist and took a step back. "I won't be able to hold back my hunger... I don't want to hurt you."
"It's okay even if you hurt me. It's just a bite, and besides, I can always heal myself." She smiled at me.
"You.. You're really a healer?"
"You know?"
"I was still having my doubts. You healed me one time, eight years ago, remember?"
"If you already know then you don't have to worry about a thing." She reached out her hand to me. "I accepted everything about you so it's obvious that I will accept this part of you."
"But Violet... Are you sure you want this?"
"I want to help you."
Seeing the way she looked at me right now, I wanted to taint her with my color. No... I have to hold back, I need to hold back and make her yearn for me... but maybe a taste will be fine, right?
I held her hand. "Then... Can I have some of you right now?"
I was really amazed when I didn't saw any hesitation in her eyes. My Violet was so brave.
"Okay."
"It will hurt a lot."
"I have high pain tolerance."
"I will just drink some of your blood then... If I ate your flesh, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle that much pain even if you have a high tolerance." I stroked her cheek gently with my thumb.
I will mark her as mine.
"Okay, if that's what you want. Will it satisfy your hunger?"
"Yes. At least I won't have to go out tonight and hunt some animal, right?" I smiled.
"It will be dangerous if someone caught you, you know."
"I'm always careful."
"You will never know what will happen."
I cornered her against the door and locked my door as I did. "Just to make sure no one will try to catch us."
She nodded. "I will try my best not to be loud."
I don't mind her being loud tho... I actually prefer it if she gets loud.
"Violet, I will take off your sweater."
When I saw her nod, she raised her hands and I pulled her sweater.
I leaned and whispered on her ear "Are you sure about this?"
She nodded without hesitation. I slid down the cloth covering her left shoulder, before I leaned down and place a soft kiss on the spot I was going to mark.
Drinking her blood was not necessary in marking her but since I was hungry, might as well have a taste of her.
I licked her on the spot I choose.
Hmm, the taste of her flesh is so sweet. I want to eat it but I don't want to give her too much pain that's why I stopped the urge I have right now.
"Brother."
For now, lets give her a tease.
"Don't worry, my saliva will help lessen the pain." I lied.
I continued licking her there before I started kissing and sucking. I can feel my iron hardening and body burning as I keep on having her taste in my mouth by licking her there.
"Luke..."
I stopped upon hearing her moan. "Is this your... sensitive spot?"
Seeing her embarrassed face made me want to use my power to control her so that I can finally have her but at the same time, I know that she'll end up hating me if I did.
That's why this will do for now. I placed my hand on her waist to support her since I'll let her melt after this. "Call my name again, Violet."
She shook her head.
Fine. You want it the hard way eh? I don't mind.
I licked and kissed her on the spot where a hickey has now formed.
"Please..."
"My name." Let me hear you moan for me, darling. Don't stop it.
"Luke..."
I smirked upon hearing the sound I wanted. Okay, enough teasing. If I continued this, I won't be able to hold myself from taking her.
I bit hard on the spot and started drinking her sweet blood. It was so addicting that I almost forgot to do what I was planning earlier. I need to mark her as my woman.
I covered her mouth with mu hand since I don't want anyone ruining our moment.
"MMm!"
I continued drinking and at the same time, I placed my mark on her. A mark that will make her remember me all the time when she sees it, a mark that will connect our souls.
I continued drinking amd drinking until I felt that it should be enough. If I drink more, Violet will die from blood loss.
I licked her there one last time before I leaned away and looked at her in guilt. "I'm sorry."
She smiled a bit and shook her head. "I chose this."
After she healed the wound, I smirked inwardly upon seeing the biye mark on her shoulder. She's mine now.
I fixed her sleeve before I carried her like a princess. I walked towards the bed and placed her there.
"Thank you, Violet." I pulled up the blanket as I placed a kiss on her forehead.
"Good night, brother.."
I smirked. Now then, let us continue this in your dream, okay?
I casted a spell on her. "Dream manipulation."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

"I was supposed to ask you for a dance earlier." I let go of het wrist and offered my hand to her instead. "Can I have this dance?" She pouted, "How about the music?" How I wish I can kiss those pouting lips right now. Sigh. "How about you sing?" "I can't sing. I don't have a beautiful voice." "That's not important, as long as we have music, we can dance." I paused and held her chin, I leaned down to her level. "But I would definitely prefer the sound of your mo--" I paused. Oops, I'll be scaring her if I made my motives known to her. "Any sound coming from your mouth would be lovely for me." Since the moonlight coming from my window was shining on her face, I can clearly see how red her face turned. Ah, teasing Violet is so satisfying. "OWw!" My cheeks were suddenly pinched by her. "You idiotic brother! What kind of things are you learning at school?! Your teases became worse! I want my pure and loving brother back!" I furrowed my brows. "Let go!" She let go before she crossed her arms and puffed out her cheeks. "Hmpf. I should tell daddy to transfer you to another school!" "Stop calling me your brother." I mumbled lowly as I pouted. She looked at me as she wondered what I just mumbled, but then she turned back to glaring at me. "Next time I won't go easy on you!" "You're becoming so unladylike as you grow." I sighed. "Did you say something?" I sighed. How many times did I sighed already? I guess I don't have any choice but to use my title as her 'brother' to get close to her. That's why, I wrapped my arms around her small waist and bent down to her level, burying my face on her neck. "Let your brother hug you like this for a while." Her scent entered my nostrils, intoxicating me. I love the scent of sweet pea on her. How I wish I can take her now but sadly... I need to control myself. I licked my lips. I'm hungry. I want to have a taste of her. "I missed you, Violet." "I missed you too... I have so many things to tell you, you know." "Me too... Who wants to go first?" I nuzzled my nose against her skin, I'm so addicted with this scent of hers. "Mine is too long, why don't you go first? We don't keep secrets from each other so tell me everything, okay?" I know how much Violet cares for me that's why I'm going to use this as my advantage to get closer to her. "I'm a Catastrophe rank monster. I ranked up after father and a small match." "Wow... That's actually amazing, I'm so proud of you, brother." Now then, time to use one of my special card to win her affection. I straightened my back and pulled her close to my chest this time. "Hn... But ever since I ranked up... I've started craving for something." If it's her, I know she will accept it. "Craving? Are you perhaps hungry? Do you want to have some midnight snack?" She raised her head and smiled. Oh Violet, I'm sorry for taking advantage of you right now... but I just love you too much. I touched her cheek. "I'm afraid I might have to distance myself from you, Violet." Yes, that's the look I've been waiting for you to give me, a worried and concerned look. "What do you mean?" I stared at her for a while before I spoke. "As I grow stronger, my desire for flesh and blood becomes stronger.. I need to stop approaching you since I don't want tohurt you. I'm afraid that one day, I won't be able to control myself from... eating you." She smiled at me, the smile that I've always loved. But of course, I didn't forget to act surprised since I need to make her believe that I was having a hard time telling her this. "It's okay. I told you, Luke is still Luke even if you are not a human." "Do you understand what I'm saying right now? I'm saying that I might lose control and eat you." I frowned. Oh my pure and innocent Violet, I'm so sorry for deceiving you right now. I'm really sorry. She nodded. "Yes. I do. That's why it's okay. I'm not afraid of you because even if you're labeled a monster, you are more human than human can ever be." I couldn't help but be touched when I heard her say this, it made me feel a little bit guilty for deceiving her... only a little bit. She raised her hands and touched my cheeks. "That's why it's okay... to take a bite if you can't control your hunger anymore... You are the most precious family I have, it's okay, Luke... it's okay to take a bite, I won't mind." One more push to make her decision firm. "Violet... Please don't do this. Don't say that." I let go of her waist and took a step back. "I won't be able to hold back my hunger... I don't want to hurt you." "It's okay even if you hurt me. It's just a bite, and besides, I can always heal myself." She smiled at me. "You.. You're really a healer?" "You know?" "I was still having my doubts. You healed me one time, eight years ago, remember?" "If you already know then you don't have to worry about a thing." She reached out her hand to me. "I accepted everything about you so it's obvious that I will accept this part of you." "But Violet... Are you sure you want this?" "I want to help you." Seeing the way she looked at me right now, I wanted to taint her with my color. No... I have to hold back, I need to hold back and make her yearn for me... but maybe a taste will be fine, right? I held her hand. "Then... Can I have some of you right now?" I was really amazed when I didn't saw any hesitation in her eyes. My Violet was so brave. "Okay." "It will hurt a lot." "I have high pain tolerance." "I will just drink some of your blood then... If I ate your flesh, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle that much pain even if you have a high tolerance." I stroked her cheek gently with my thumb. I will mark her as mine. "Okay, if that's what you want. Will it satisfy your hunger?" "Yes. At least I won't have to go out tonight and hunt some animal, right?" I smiled. "It will be dangerous if someone caught you, you know." "I'm always careful." "You will never know what will happen." I cornered her against the door and locked my door as I did. "Just to make sure no one will try to catch us." She nodded. "I will try my best not to be loud." I don't mind her being loud tho... I actually prefer it if she gets loud. "Violet, I will take off your sweater." When I saw her nod, she raised her hands and I pulled her sweater. I leaned and whispered on her ear "Are you sure about this?" She nodded without hesitation. I slid down the cloth covering her left shoulder, before I leaned down and place a soft kiss on the spot I was going to mark. Drinking her blood was not necessary in marking her but since I was hungry, might as well have a taste of her. I licked her on the spot I choose. Hmm, the taste of her flesh is so sweet. I want to eat it but I don't want to give her too much pain that's why I stopped the urge I have right now. "Brother." For now, lets give her a tease. "Don't worry, my saliva will help lessen the pain." I lied. I continued licking her there before I started kissing and sucking. I can feel my iron hardening and body burning as I keep on having her taste in my mouth by licking her there. "Luke..." I stopped upon hearing her moan. "Is this your... sensitive spot?" Seeing her embarrassed face made me want to use my power to control her so that I can finally have her but at the same time, I know that she'll end up hating me if I did. That's why this will do for now. I placed my hand on her waist to support her since I'll let her melt after this. "Call my name again, Violet." She shook her head. Fine. You want it the hard way eh? I don't mind. I licked and kissed her on the spot where a hickey has now formed. "Please..." "My name." Let me hear you moan for me, darling. Don't stop it. "Luke..." I smirked upon hearing the sound I wanted. Okay, enough teasing. If I continued this, I won't be able to hold myself from taking her. I bit hard on the spot and started drinking her sweet blood. It was so addicting that I almost forgot to do what I was planning earlier. I need to mark her as my woman. I covered her mouth with mu hand since I don't want anyone ruining our moment. "MMm!" I continued drinking and at the same time, I placed my mark on her. A mark that will make her remember me all the time when she sees it, a mark that will connect our souls. I continued drinking amd drinking until I felt that it should be enough. If I drink more, Violet will die from blood loss. I licked her there one last time before I leaned away and looked at her in guilt. "I'm sorry." She smiled a bit and shook her head. "I chose this." After she healed the wound, I smirked inwardly upon seeing the biye mark on her shoulder. She's mine now. I fixed her sleeve before I carried her like a princess. I walked towards the bed and placed her there. "Thank you, Violet." I pulled up the blanket as I placed a kiss on her forehead. "Good night, brother.." I smirked. Now then, let us continue this in your dream, okay? I casted a spell on her. "Dream manipulation."
