Incubus' Blood Harem

Kayden had already figured out that he was stuck in the blackness because of the voice and had to finds some way to get out of the mess. The power running in his body was constantly increasing but he did not want it to burst out on anyone. Kayden had no clue if there was someone in the room or not.

But he, himself was trapped in his own mental sphere. His subconscious mind brought him there when the mysterious voice started talking to him. It was still unclear to whom he was talking because apparently there was no one in his mind. Who it could be? And how was it even possible? There was no way someone could possibly hack into his mind.

"I demand your presence at once. What vessel are you talking about? Who the fuck are you?"

He yelled loudly to call out the person who was speaking in his mind. But on the outside of his mind his shouting snagged the attention of all the maids and Lydia. She had come in bringing some food for Kayden, and was sitting besides his outwardly unconscious body. The woman did not flinch or was bothered the maids' reactions.

Lydia mistook his yelling as some nightmare Kayden was having and it drove him to the edge of madness. However the woman was inwardly stunned and wanted to wake him up because she had to do something to put him at ease. After all, she was his mate and how could she see him in that miserable state!?

[Hehe~ Have some patience, kid. I will appear once you are ready to face me. But seeing your current condition the right time seems too far. Tch, unfortunately!]

"Oh!? Then what do you want? All you are doing is constantly insulting me and boasting as if you are some bigshot. If you are that powerful then why are you afraid of appearing in front of me?"

Kayden raised the question while mocking the mysterious entity, and became curious about the voice in his head. He had figured it out that the he required so much understanding of the world. The boy looked around to see if someone was playing tricks on him or the voice was real.

[Haha, you sure are eager to explore even when you are not ready. But don't worry now that you have summoned me, I'm just here to help you achieve your goal. Nothing else. And nothing is hidden.]

Kayden thought for a moment about the whole thing, even though he had numerous questions. It was the time when his vision became clear and he woke up with a gasp, Lydia immediately hugged him and squeezed his arm. The woman was undoubtedly worried about him, as Kayden smiled at her to reassure his safety Lydia gestured to the nurse nearby.

When a female vampire nurse approached him with a professional smile. She had a pale complexion and red blood lips, with crimson eyes the lady stared at him. Kayden did not want to offend Lydia or anyone else thus he kept a straight face. Although he still wondered if the voice was gone or he was able to communicate with it.

"How are you feeling now? Do you feel any headache?"

The soft voice of the nurse fell in his ears and Kayden nodded imminently, while looking at Lydia who was sitting besides him while holding his hand. Kayden lifted his arm for her to check for fever, without diverting his gaze from Lydia. The nurse nodded and gave him a satisfied smile as she went away.

"But what's the catch in this? I'm sure there must be some benefit for you in this."

Kayden' instincts told him that he could still communicate with the voice. And he had to to see behind the outlook of the scenario without making anyone worried about himself. Since the deal would not be simple as it seemed to appear. A voice resonated in his head without any prior context or anything and offers to help him. It was hell suspicious!

[Clever! I don't need anything else other than your body. I just need you let me stay in your body and be my vessel.]

"Aren't you already residing in my body? Shouldn't you compensate me for occupying my body without my consent? I never permitted you for this harassment. And as you said you are in my body when I was a baby. Why did you choose me?"

As expected from the boy who inherited the genes from his wise mother, Kayden knew how to curry favors or pull out information by playing with words. A groaning noise echoed in his head making Kayden smile over the reaction. Kayden shifted his head towards Lydia and nodded at the worried vampiress.

He did not want to trouble her anymore but Kayden could not comprehend why his powers did not work. Or to put it this way, why the voice in his head did not cause an outburst of energy to beat Coulter's ass?

Argh! What do you want from me?]

A grin appeared in his eyes as Kayden made sure to achieve a greater benefit. He could comprehend that if the 'thing' has chosen him as a powerful vessel then there must be something good in him. Or else why would some celestial figure decide to reside in a weak vessel which will eventually wither.

"I want whole information on my powers. Everything you know. I'm certain yo must have figured out a lot about me, than I know myself."

The demonic voice scoffed and replied to his sly demand.

[You can get all this information from any noble. You don't need my assistance.]

"It appears you are too old and outdated with the obvious information. There are no noble vampires alive anymore, which leaves no one who can provide me anything useful. But you can give me more insights compared to books."

Kayden had a vague image of the things that demonic voice in his head did back there in Jack's home. He acknowledged that the 'thing' was powerful enough and knew about vampires a lot. Or in general.
