Slave to the Darkness 133 133 At the Lunch Table

Claude was at the table with Sephira. "I could hear that. Did you have fun?" He raised an eyebrow at the outfit Cedric was wearing.

Sephira looked at Yuki and smiled, "are you okay Yuki?"

"I am fabulous. I love torturing those that deserve it." Yuki touched the glass that was sitting in front of her.

"Ah, yes. Well there was not much of a choice and besides this was all Yuki's idea I think that she enjoyed herself fully." Cedric sat down and looked at his clothes for a fleeting moment.

"I didn't hear you complaining. Was it not fun to watch?" Yuki sat up and watched Cedric's reaction closely.

"I was definitely not complaining. I thought that it was fun. I got to see how much you care about me. It is not every day that I would get the opportunity to watch you kill someone." Cedric picked up a biscuit and started eating it.

"Ah, so that girl is dead. I was a bit surprised when I could hear the screaming and then it became muffled. I would like to know what did you use?" Sephira ate the biscuit that was on her plate.

"I want to know why Cedric is in the butler costume." Claude was staring confused at both of them.

"If you must know Claude, I played my mistress' butler. It is not every day that I get to dress up and pretend to be someone I am not." Cedric placed his hand on Yuki's thigh.

"I stabbed her. It was fun reversing the roles but I do not know if I was convincing enough. There were points in time that it felt like the roles were coming undone." Yuki placed her hand on his.

"From what we heard, it sounded pretty convincing from here. When I asked Abigail she said that there was an unexpected visitor but she was not unexpected, was she?" Claude sighed.

"I knew that she would come as soon as I heard who was the one that tried to get Yuki killed. That chick was delusional. I am regretting letting some individuals live. I should've killed all of them but then again that is why I switched to buying slaves. If one died there would be no one that would mourn their loss." Cedric sighed and patted Yuki's thigh.

"There is at least one good thing about other girls coming after you. Cedric you get to see how jealous Yuki becomes." Sephira finishes off the biscuit and smiles at Yuki.

"Hmph!" Yuki looks away from everyone. "I do not like the thought of someone else touching what is mine. I didn't like smelling her perfume on Cedric that I got so mad I threw a glass of water on his head. His natural scent was covered in this gross perfume scent." Her eyes went dark and she started to transform a little more.

"One good thing out of this is I got to watch and see how precise Yuki could cut into the flesh of a human. It was fascinating to watch." Cedric stopped as Abigail came into the dining room. "This afternoon I made pasta salad, sandwiches, and Yuki and I made the biscuits. You should keep the killing talk away from the dining table. I would not want either of the ladies to be scared off and lose their appetite. Although Yuki is an exception to that. I know that you are not hungry." Abigail patted Yuki on the shoulder and went back to the kitchen to grab the trays of sandwiches.

Once Abigail returned, Sephira looked at her and smiled. "There is no cause for concern. I am a hired killer after all. I am used to seeing death and with Yuki being a vampire she should be used to it as well. Beside it was Yuki's kill."

"That reminds me. There is a mess in Guestroom two. I did not see how much blood there will be but the mattress will probably need to be changed out." Cedric looked at Abigail. "Sorry in advance."

"Oh, I did not think about how big of a mess that it would be to clean up. I am sorry Abigail. Next time I will make sure that I do not make such a huge mess." Yuki's eyes were wide as she thought about it.

"Don't worry. We do have some precautions set aside. There are some things that humans would not notice." Cedric smiled and his fingers snapped.

Yuki's eyes changed and she leaned forward. "Oh, I get it now. Take this away. It's painful to look through right now, Cedric." She closed her eyes and put her head down on the table. "I will rest my eyes here. I do not know why but all of a sudden I feel like I am being hit with exhaustion."

Cedric got up and carried her. "Sorry, I did not think that it would make you that sleepy. If I had known then I wouldn't have done that to you." He left the table and took Yuki to their room. "That was the magic eyes. I thought that you would be okay with seeing through them but it might have been a bit early for that."

Yuki was in her arms and had her eyes closed. "This was not the first time that you have given me this sight. I could feel like I had seen something like this in the past." She felt her body being laid on the bed. She pulled him down and bit into his neck.

"Mmmmm, I have always loved how it felt when you drank my blood." Cedric helped hold her steady until she finished drinking and sealed the wound.

"I am sorry that I did not heal the bite marks from last time." Yuki laid back on the bed and touched his cheek.

"That was for dramatic effect. I did not care. You take fantastic care of me every other time. One time is not going to make or break anything for me." Cedric leaned down and kissed her lips. "I will be back. I need to eat something because unlike you I can not live off the blood of my loved one."
