The Villain's Story

"Hiek!"

The moment I heard that, I felt a sort of pressure on my chest, as if someone had buried their face in it. Disregarding that sort of feeling, I was actually astonished.

Surprised, I looked up and discarded my thoughts of the raid, and wanted to know what exactly it was.

I looked up and saw a man, wearing a comically large red cape. He looked regal in appearance, with his hair tidy, and wearing the attire of a noble, He had two large canines, which were obviously fake and fake blood oozed out of them. He was average in appearance other than his attire.

"..."

"..."

Both of us silently looked at one another. I knew he was an employee of this establishment and doing his job but… That was not what tookby surprise.

What it actually was…was the fact that Sabrina was scared, not of unholy abominations of flesh or ghostly entities…but something that looked most like a human.

A vampire.

"..."

"..."

Another bout of silent stares ensued, as I looked down at her. She was actually shaking and had her face buried deep in my chest.

"..."

I could tell, even though the contract between us was terminated… I could tell…

This was genuine.

Sabrina was actually terrified of vampires. Even though she most likely knew it was a fake imitation of one. That… I honestly don't know how to respond to this.

Whilst I was surprised by this, The employee coughed, which drew my attention. I looked at him, who was now smiling, and he gavea thumbs up. I don't know why, but I reciprocated with the sgesture, a thumbs up.

With a satisfied and somewhat envious look, he retreated into the air, being lifted by wires. Like a character from a comic.

I did feel disturbed that he kept his eyes on Sabrina for a while, but I let it go when I realized she still had her face buried deep in my chest.

She stopped shaking, but I didn't tell her 'the scary monster' went away. I simply enjoyed the feeling.

'It feels nice.'

[SuprDragon of Frost, Lanesha sighs at your youth.]

… You were watching? Do you not have sduties to attend to because of your status?

Surprisingly, this supris too free. And bored.

"He's gone, isn't he?"

I heard Sabrina's voice, and reflexively answered with a yes.

"Yes."

"Ah, let's continue then.

Good things never last, I just noticed how true that was. She relieved herself from the embrace and went forward, acting like nothing happened.

A little bit taken aback by it, and somewhat still reminiscing about the prior events, I stood in the sspot. I could see her ears and parts of her face turning a little red. Perhaps from embarrassment.

No, definitely from embarrassment.

"Cute."

I muttered, and she seemed to have heard it, since the redness turned a shade deeper.

"Let's just go, Okay?!"

And like that, we hurried out of the horror house, withconstantly suppressing the urge to laugh.

Regardless, I still said.

"Of all things, The least I expected was for you to be scared of vampires."

She didn't respond, instead continued to walk forward, I followed her, and got close. Lowering my head and turning it, so I was at her side, I moved my own teeth, those of a dragon, close to her neck.

"I wonder what your reaction would be if I bit your neck."

I said, flaunting my own canines. But to be honest.

With the look she gave me, I was scared shitless for a moment and retreated.

'Gulp.'

I took a gulp, and stepped back, massaging her shoulders. I tried my best to make up.

"Haha, Everyone has their own fea-"

"Shut up."

… Well, at least it was worth a shot.

I hope the entire date hasn't been ruined because of this. But surprisingly, she turned to look at me, her face still a bit red.

"It's…alright to be scared of sthings."

…

Badump

…

'Ok, that was cute.'

I admitted once again and confirmed.

"Totally is."

Of course, everyone is afraid of something. Sabrina of…

vampires and I am afraid of something else. Something more profound I guess if compared to her fear.

"Please forget that ever happened."

"Oh con, It wasn't that bad. You did say that everyone has a fear."

"Oh, then what's your fear?"

There you go, You are back to your original self. The Sabrina I know.

"Something you won't understand."

I said, as I tried to laugh it off. Of course, she noticed it but didn't pursue it further, to which I was thankful for her. She led the way and we bought a few drinks.

She had an obsession for taking pictures of them, and got mad a few times because I finished the drinks too quickly.

But overall, it was fun. I would say this date was a success. Now, the only thing left to do would be to complete her request. We went to a secluded area so I could open a portal without anyone noticing…

But something interrupted us. Her communicator rang, and she looked at it for a moment, a worried look could be seen on her face as she said to me.

"Alan, let's go back. I'm sorry, but I have sfamily business to attend to. Can you teleportto my…what are you doing?"

I was in the middle of taking my shirt off. We were going to fly, and that required wings. I don't want this shirt to be ruined because of my transformation.

"Doing what you wanted…?"

"If people saw this, You know what they would think."

… Can't argue with that.

"Anyway, please just open a portal to my room."

I obliged, although I was still dubious. But she wouldn't tellno matter how much I asked. I made a portal to the door of her dorm. Thinking the situation was urgent, I turned to leave. But she stopped me.

She stretched out her hands, as if attempting to grab something. I remembered her spirit cat was on my shoulder, so I lowered myself so it would be easier for her to grab it when…

She actually grabbed my chin and kissed my cheek.

"Thank you for the date."

With a sweet voice.

Frozen, I didn't even look at her as I was too shocked, until I heard the sound of her door closing.

[SuprDragon of frost, Lanesha is laughing at your frozen state.]

I touched my cheek, and noticed that sof her lipstick was there, which got on my fingers.

"..."

So that's how a kiss feels like…even though on the cheek instead of the lips.

'Honestly…'

I thought to myself…

That made the entire thing worth it.
