As Rias informed Rudy that everything was set and she was ready to initiate her revenge plan, a sense of trepidation mingled with concern washed over him.
"Come to my room after five minutes."
Rudy watched as Rias walked away, her determination evident in every step she took. He couldn't help but wonder about the severity of her plan and the consequences it might entail.
Taking a deep breath to steady himself, Rudy prepared to face the inevitable. After the agreed-upon five minutes had elapsed, he made his way to Rias' room. Each step felt heavier than the last, uncertainty gnawing at his core. As he entered the room, he found Rias waiting, her gaze fixed on a figure lying motionless on the bed.
His heart skipped a beat as his eyes locked onto Jane, her form bound by shackles, seemingly unconscious. Rudy's mind raced, struggling to comprehend the situation before him. He had anticipated a confrontation between Rias and Jane, but the sight of Jane in such a vulnerable state stirred conflicting emotions within him.
Approaching the bed cautiously, Rudy's eyes never left Jane's face. He studied her features, searching for any signs of awareness. Despite the chains that bound her, her expression remained serene, as if caught in a deep slumber.
Rudy's heart wavered, torn between his loyalty to Rias and his desire for justice, and his empathy for Jane's predicament.
Turning to Rias, Rudy's voice was laced with a mixture of concern and apprehension. "Rias, what have you done?" he asked, his words filled with a desperate plea for explanation.
Rias met his gaze, her eyes revealing a complex blend of determination and pain. "Jane hurt me, Rudy. She betrayed our trust and caused irreparable damage. This is my chance for closure, to confront her with the consequences of her actions."
Rudy's mind raced, searching for a solution that could quell the rising tension in the room. He understood Rias' need for closure, but he also recognized the importance of compassion and finding a resolution that didn't compromise their own moral compass.
"I never gave you permission to knock Jane out," he furrowed his brows. Those shackles are sucking Jane's strength to keep her weak and prevent her from breaking free."
"And I respected your decision. I didn't do anything to her… I swear by your name."
"If that's the case, how did you manage to bring her to your room and chain her like this?"
"After you left, we all talked and enjoyed the company. When Jane was tired, I offered her my room to sleep in, and when she fell asleep, I carefully chained her without hurting her."
Rias looked at Jane and muttered, "Even I don't want to hurt my precious little sister."
Taking a deep breath, Rudy gently reached out and placed a hand on Rias' shoulder. "Rias, I understand your anger and the hurt you've endured, but this is not the right way for revenge. You can have revenge by other means without doing all this."
"Maybe I shouldn't have told you my revenge plan…" Rias's gaze flickered with a mix of frustration and longing. "I've given Jane numerous chances to confess, to acknowledge her actions and seek forgiveness. But she remains defiant, refusing to take responsibility for the pain she has caused. It's too late to turn back now, Rudy."
Rias met Rudy's gaze, her eyes filled with conflicted emotions. She hesitated for a moment before a determined glint entered her eyes. "Rudy, I appreciate your concern, but I cannot ignore the pain I've endured. I've come too far to turn back now. Please, trust me."
Feeling the weight of her words, Rudy nodded reluctantly, his expression filled with a mixture of apprehension and compassion. "Alright, Rias. If this is the path you choose, I will support you, but please remember the consequences of our actions."
Rias nodded, a mixture of gratitude and determination in her eyes. "Thank you, Rudy. I understand the risks involved, and I will bear the consequences of my choices. Now, close your eyes and don't open them until I say so."
Rudy closed his eyes as Rias requested. He could hear a faint rustling noise. Confusion clouded his mind, and a tinge of apprehension gripped his heart. When he finally opened his eyes, his breath caught in his throat.
Rias stood before him, her body exposed and vulnerable, her hands covering her private parts. She looked at Rudy and puckered her lips, asking, "Are you not going to take off your clothes?"
Rudy stripped himself and shrugged his shoulders. He stepped closer to Rias and uttered, "Why are you covering your body when you know that you will be completely exposed and vulnerable in a next few minutes."
"It's called shyness and decency."
Rias and Rudy got on the bed beside chained Jane— Rias' twin vampire sister. Rias's gaze held a mixture of desire and hunger. Her eyes, once warm and inviting, now glowed with an intense crimson hue, reflecting the primal instincts of her vampire nature. Her fangs elongated, revealing the predatory side of her being, sharp and lethal.
Rudy, undeterred by Rias's transformation, met her gaze with a calm determination.
In this moment of profound silence, Rias finally broke it with a whispered request, her voice laced with longing and hunger. "Rudy, may I drink your blood?" she asked, her words carrying both a plea and a thirst.
As Rudy extended his neck towards her, Rias couldn't contain her excitement. Her lips quivered with anticipation as she leaned in, her breath brushing against his skin. With delicate precision, she sank her fangs into his flesh, piercing the surface and drawing forth his life-giving essence.
A surge of sensations coursed through Rudy's body as Rias drank his blood. He could feel the gentle pull of her lips, the sharp sting of her fangs, and the intoxicating mix of pleasure and pain that accompanied this forbidden act. In that moment, their connection deepened, their souls intertwined through the exchange of life force.
