Ch 14

Kyson handed Justin over to the Queen, breaking the promise he had made to Justin, because the Queen had promised to help him get revenge on those who killed his friends. And she wasn't lying.

Kyson harbored a deep grudge against the people of his own land, as they had shown no mercy to any of the vampires, leaving a deep wound in Kyson's heart. Nothing was more important to Kyson than revenge, and his red eyes were filled with even more bloodlust.

When Justin woke up, he found himself in the Queen's palace with his hands tied, extremely shocked and disheartened.

Justin thought, "Why am I here? Who brought me here?"

Queen: "Oh, my dear, you're still confused." She smiled and held a fan in front of her face.

Justin looked at her in surprise, saying nothing. The Queen, tired of Justin's silence, bit his neck. After releasing him, she licked the blood around her lips and said, "How nostalgic, your blood has a sweet taste." She smiled.

Servant: "My lady, Lord Arkidos is waiting for you."

Justin was even more shocked upon hearing this name, his eyes widening in surprise.

Queen: "Tell him I'll be there in a few minutes, and make sure this man gets a new outfit and is tidied up." She said and left.

The maid wiped blood on Justin's neck and said:"It's better not to think about escaping again, because your punishment will be much harsher." He smiled.

Kyson sat across the table from the Queen to talk.

Queen: "When I heard you were the last surviving vampire from your land, I felt really sad. Humans always like to be rebellious." Her face darkened.

Kyson, with his hand under his chin, said: "Yeah, they're truly terrible creatures. Thanks, Rosita."

Rosita angrily slammed the table and said: "But I won't give in, I won't let these ungrateful humans continue their insolent behavior!"

Kyson gently said: "You really understand me well, Rosita."

Rosita: "Let's get married, and together we'll expand our territory and show all humans that we vampires are superior!" She smiled.

Kyson looked at Rosita. He thought for a moment and said: "That's an interesting proposal, I'll think about it."

Rosita: "Yes, think about it, I'm waiting for your answer." She smiled.

Kyson stood up and said: "Can I see the person I brought here?"

Rosita: "Of course, you can do whatever you want with him." She smiled and held the fan in front of her face.

Kyson: "Thank you for your hospitality." He went to see Justin.

Kyson went to the room where Justin was. Justin, dressed neatly, was sitting on the floor, leaning against the wall. His hands were chained to prevent another escape.

Justin, quietly and disheartened, said: "Satisfied? Now you can take your revenge."

Kyson leaned against the wall next to Justin and said: "You're really foolish to think I actually see you as a friend. You're no different from the rest of the humans to me."

Justin looked at Kyson and said, "So, what about what you said that day? You told me you owe me and that you wanted to be my master and…" His face twisted.

 Kyson looked at Justin indifferently. Justin, with sadness, said, "So, it was all a lie, wasn't it?" He laughed bitterly from sorrow. 

Kyson: "That's why you humans are so stupid. Even though you knew I was a dangerous vampire, you saved me." He smirked and continued, "I never saw you as a friend, just used you to stay alive and secure my position and then take revenge on every one of you humans." He sneered and said, "How ridiculous."

Justin: "But I can't believe what you're saying is true. You risked yourself to save me back then, but you could have left me and gone, so..."

Kyson thought: "Why? I don't understand why myself..."

Justin: "I'm sure you don't even believe what you're saying because you truly proved to me that you're kind and trustworthy."

Kyson frowned and said, "Okay, you got me. I like you because you're the first friend I've ever had, and even though you're human, you listened to me and cared without fear." His face twisted.

Justin: "Really? I knew it wasn't a lie." He became happy and smiled.

Kyson, with anger and hatred, said, "But when it comes to taking revenge on those horrible humans for the vampires of my land, I'm willing to sacrifice anything." He clenched his fist.

Justin, disheartened, said, "Revenge? Do you think I really like vampires? Do you think I saved you because I like you?!" He looked at Kyson with hatred.

Kyson thought, "His eyes... I've never seen his eyes so angry and full of hatred!"

Justin, angrily, said, "You don't know anything. The queen killed my parents and my entire family just to bring me here, right in front of my eyes."

Kyson, surprised, said, "She killed your family?!"

Justin, in a quiet voice, said, "My family opposed the queen bringing me here as her slave. She forcibly brought me here and treated me like her toy for years."

Kyson: "Justin, you..."

Justin: "We humans have the right to freedom. We never want to be your vampires' playthings, and we won't allow it!" His eyes were serious.

Kyson thought: "This means that Rosita uses the humans here for her own amusement, and because of this, she has killed many innocent people!" Thinking about this made him feel sick, and he covered his mouth with his hand.

Justin looked at Kyson and said: "Are you okay?"

Kyson came to himself and said: "I'm fine. I've changed my mind. I want to help you escape from here."

Justin looked at Kyson with happy and hopeful eyes and said: "Do you really want to help me?" He smiled.

Kyson: "Get ready. It's time to put an end to this once and for all.
