Blood Awakening: The Strongest Hybrid and His Vampire Bride

"Don't be arrogant with me, Volkov. I have looked into your situation. Do you think your father will last much longer if he doesn't get treatment?" Selene tossed a stack of papers at Nikolai, the speed almost knocking him off the sofa while forcing his feet onto the ground with a thud.

"!!!"

'What was that strength!?'

Nikolai's eyes looked at the petite woman with a beautiful doll-like face, no longer even looking his way as she typed on the computer with rapid taps, almost as if she was pretending to type something. The speed made Nikolai feel dazed. "What is this--"

"Your contract, including the upfront payment to cover your father's treatment using our company's private medical care facilities." Selene flicked her hair behind her ear while looking at him with a momentary glance before returning to her work.

Despite her tone being arrogant and stuck up, Nikolai read the documents and felt a momentary pang of regret for treating her with such a rude attitude. The documents were airtight, and despite there not being anything in it that he didn't expect, the price was a lot more than he expected.

"1 million... up front. This is 10 times what I expected." Nikolai didn't understand why it differed from the contract on the job application so much; his gaze shifted towards Selene, who seemed focused on her work; he couldn't help but notice just how beautiful she was, not a single blemish or mark on her face, skin that glowed like a goddess.

He swallowed his saliva only for her eyes to snap towards him and narrow with a glare.

"Can you not become horny over my beauty? I can hear you swallowing your saliva. It's disgusting and repulsive." Selene turned her head away while Nikolai's face blushed and became flustered.

"N-No, I was--"

"Stop talking; I don't care about the reasons or excuses; all I need is your body."

"M-My body? Excuse me, but I'm..."

"W-What!? How could you think that way? Is your mind always in heat like a dog in summer!?" Selene's voice increased a few pitches while her cheeks seemed a little less pale as she began to grumble at the desk. "T-That's not what I meant. I need your body for the job you are applying for!"

Nikolai's eyes blinked in confusion until the notification sound on his cell phone alerted him from his banking application.

[SCG Deposited 1,000,000 into your account.]

[Current Account Every day balance: 1,005,100]

'What? I didn't even sign the contract yet!'

Nikolai looked at the contract and Selene with a confused expression, wondering if she had deposited the money by accident until he noticed she wasn't typing on the keyboard anymore.

"T-The upfront payment is to prove your loyalty. Your father will not only need the transplant but many weeks or even months of medical care because the missions and work you will do for me in the next month will be dangerous. The pay is increased equal to the danger to your life. Do you have any more questions?"

Nikolai's eyes twitched a little after hearing the danger to his life's part. 'Dangerous!? Did I apply for military or thug work? No... it doesn't matter if I can help Father even a day sooner. I will just clear my debts and then leave.'

He didn't speak about his concerns and signed the contract. "Huh? A blood print?"

On the back page, he found a small piece of metal where you placed your finger, and it would prick you for a bloodprint. His gaze looked over to Selene, but she no longer paid any attention to him. Her eyes focused on the monitor.

"Phew... here I go."

With one last deep breath, Nikolai finally pressed his finger against the metal inlay before a slight prick injected his finger, causing him to gasp and pull his hand back; a thick layer of blood then began seeping into the paper, leaving the scent of blood wafting through the room.

'Strange... why so much blood?'

***

Meanwhile, at the desk, Selene used the angle of her desk to make it seem she was working; however, in reality, her gaze watched Nikolai, tapping her keys in irritation. It took him so long to sign the document. 'Did he find out already, or is he just stupid?'

'Sigh... I really don't want to hire anyone else now I have found him.'

Selene eyes watched Nikolai place his finger on the contract and press it down; she couldn't help but smile in amusement. 'So naïve. But I won't wrong you for helping me in these troublesome times.'

At first, she planned to say something about mocking him or calling him a dog. However, the scent of his blood was too strong, and the information on her screen made her pupils dilate as it was an excellent match. 'His compatibility is at 100%, even better than I hoped... it is as if All Mother is telling me to make him mine.'

"Ah..." She felt a warmth dripping down her lips; reaching to touch herself, she noticed blood was flowing from her nose... looking at her fingers, she felt a sudden rush to her brain. The scent of his blood overwhelmed her, sweet, filled with vitality and power.

Selene couldn't control herself; her breathing became heavy, and her legs rubbed together as she bit her lip, trying to calm herself. 'What is happening to me? I must control myself. A vampire with the blood of a progenitor is getting excited from this mutt?'

Her self-control slowly failed as she glanced at Nikolai, who looked around, confused. Before she realised her feet were approaching him, her bloody fingertip slid across the desk, staining it with a line of blood. Yet she couldn't stop, or rather, she didn't want to stop!

"Uhm... you look a little sick, your nose is bleeding... Here, I have some tissues in my pocket." Nikolai stood up and approached her, but Selene had no thoughts in her mind except the desire to taste him.

'Blood... I must have his blood!'

Her hand snapped forward and grabbed his wrist before pulling him towards her desk and slamming him against it. The expensive wood cracked from the force, her eyes glowing a dull red as her fangs extended.

Although this would have happened anyway, she rationalised it as his fault because his blood smelt so delicious and made her feel dizzy. To a vampire, there always existed compatibility between two people, but only one existence would have 100%.

"!!!" Nikolai's eyes widened in shock, and Selene's hand reached forward and grabbed his jaw, her other hand pulling his tie towards her while opening her mouth.

"Wha-- Ahh!"

She could feel his muscles bulging, trying to resist her power, yet a normal human's strength couldn't compare to hers as an awakened royal vampire.

Selene's mouth approached his neck while licking her lips in excitement, yet the scent of his blood was so close she couldn't help but bite!

"Ahhhh!!" Nikolai cried out in pain, and Selene's body shivered as she closed her eyes, her tongue sliding across the puncture marks while her hands wrapped around his waist and pulled him closer.

"N-No... wha--"

Nikolai tried to push her away, yet his arms wouldn't move as she drank his blood; Selene could feel the power surging within him, the warmth of his blood entering her body as if a volcano erupted.

'His blood is so warm, and the taste... no, this damn mutt is the reason for my nosebleed; he should take responsibility!'

Selene's eyes narrowed as her tongue traced the puncture wounds, the holes sealing instantly before biting again while her hands reached down and began squeezing his throat, covering his lips to stop him from making a noise to disturb her.

'His blood... his blood... Nikolai!'

Selene bit his neck again, and this time, she felt her strength surge while his hands lost all resistance and fell to his side. It was at that moment a warning seemed to flash in her mind as she pulled away with a long sigh, the sticky blood forming a curved bridge from her lips and his neck as she couldn't help but feel the amazing pleasure that streamed through her body.

'What am I doing!?'

Selene's eyes widened in realisation before pushing Nikolai onto the floor and wiping her lips in embarrassment. 'I can't believe I did that. As the dignified daughter of the Tepes bloodline, I became blood drunk, like a lowly bitten!?'

"Oi... Are you dead?" She asked, kicking Nikolai, who slumped against the table. His breathing was faint, his body shaking as the colour on his face seemed pale.

"Hmm... so the legends are true; that no matter who the vampire is, a 100% compatibility rate is addictive and intoxicating, to where both the vampire could lose their mind while their partner dies blood loss."

She squatted in front of him; despite her frown, her skin looked wonderful. Selene practically shone with a beautiful glossy sheen while her eyes were filled with vibrance. "Okay, I need to make you my squire now once you awaken. I will tell you everything... I promise."

Selene's finger slid across her bloody desk while Nikolai's contract lay next to her; the bloodprint had dried. She picked it up and placed her finger on it. "Sigh... I hate the fact I have to put my finger in your filthy mouth." Her nail grew longer as she cut across her fingertip; the blood which oozed now carried a sweeter scent compared to her nosebleed.

After placing her finger on his lips, she closed her eyes and began to count.

'You can hate me, detest me, but tonight you will likely die... One of my suitors will send his squire to come and fight you. Yet I have no time to teach you anything of this world... Don't worry, I won't ask your father to repay the money. Consider it your pension package.'

Selene counted to 50, and Nikolai didn't move; her finger wiped his lips, and she frowned, believing he had died. 'It seems he is a weak mutt and has low attunement to his bloodline... A failure has 100% compatibility with me?'

"Cough, Cough!" A few moments later, Nikolai started coughing as he looked at Selene with a strange, fearful look, her chin covered in blood and her fangs still visible.

Selene's eyes opened in surprise. "Good, you survived. I thought you died."

"!!"

"Haha, relax, I'm just joking. I wouldn't have killed you... yet." Selene chuckled as Nikolai trembled in fear while she stood up and straightened her skirt, noticing his eyes were staring at her legs.

"Hey... You pervert, are you already thinking of violating me? Just what I'd expect from a mutt. Now, since you've accepted the job, you should get ready. Tonight's fight is about to begin." Selene smiled innocently while Nikolai felt his chest tightening in pain, a warm sensation building inside him.

"Fight? What are you talking about, and what are you!"

Selene turned around and ignored him while walking towards the door.

"Me? I'm a vampire." She then opened the door, leading to a windy passage that looked gloomy, as grey clouds filled the skies and thunder started to rumble in the distance. "I'm also your master!"
