Note: The reader is always referred to by the neutral female 彼女 in these short stories, but I use Yui instead of exclusively 'that girl' or 'her' for practical purposes. This side story appeared in a 2013 issue of the otome magazine B's Log.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
SUMMARY | Ruki has cornered Yui on the rooftop of a transmission tower. Seeing the tears in her eyes in the aftermath of the violence he inflicted on her, the vampire finds himself oddly fascinated.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
—There is a break in the otherwise pitch-black sky overhead, revealing a sliver of blue.
“You know, what everyone’s saying about your blood being special… They were right,” I say slowly, sighing deeply.
In response to my voice, Yui’s body, still sprawled out on the ground, stirs.
“Pitiful Livestock… No matter how much you hate being used, you are already beyond saving, aren’t you? Heh…” I say it mostly to myself, but the girl’s eyes open ever so slightly, gaze unfocused.
Still, I sense the intent behind that gaze.
“Frustrating, isn’t it?” My voice is a whisper.
“Nn…”
Her eyes narrow. Seeing her in this state, I shake my head disapprovingly.
“Better fight back if you don’t like it. You could have tried pushing me off this ledge, at least,” I taunt, willing my voice to sound as cold-hearted as possible.
Tears start spilling from her eyes then, almost jewel-like. I quietly look on as she cries, the tears running down her cheeks and disappearing beneath her blood-stained collar.
I know the reason for those tears, though I have never cried myself. I could never cry the way she does.
No, it’s not that I could not cry—I simply would never allow myself to. Back then, it would have been easy to cry, scream, lament my pitiful state, fall to the ground or stomp my feet in frustration. Considering the mistakes that had brought me to that point, crying about it was simply not an option.
“...Kou already told you crying only feeds our appetite,” I try, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Yui continues to cry in silence.
“Don’t cry, Livestock.” Irritation unconsciously bleeds into my voice. Where did this irritation come from? I had no intention to reproach her for feeling sorry for herself, and yet… “I suppose it’s only natural to feel that way.”
The words were out before I knew it, taking me aback. Such quintessentially human emotions were simply unnerving to me. That must be the cause of my irritation.
“Heh… I must admit I’m a little surprised. Although I suppose that realisation is of no use to you now.”
I trace the girl’s cheek with a finger, catching the teardrops.
“Ah…”
“Don’t give me that look. I did you a favour, and this is how you thank me?” I run my tongue along my finger. Savouring the taste, I edge closer to her. “It’s no use crying now…. because you are already mine. Just give up. Be a good girl and give your blood to me.”
That is the only way to make this easier for yourself, I finally add.
All the while, I think how foolish it is to force someone else to do something that I could not do myself.

SUMMARY | Ruki makes Yui clean up the aftermath of her escapade with both Azusa and himself, but decides on a different kind of punishment for indulging his brother when he sees her on all fours, cleaning the kitchen floor.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
When I open the door to the kitchen, I am met with the sight of food and utensils strewn all across the floor. The room is so dirty I feel the need to avert my eyes.
Yui peers into the room from behind me, a guilty expression forming on her face. Rightly so, because this woman is the one responsible for this mess.
To make matters worse, this is all the result of her indulging Azusa’s thirst (1), so it is only natural for her to feel remorseful.
“You already know why I brought you here, don’t you? I was even kind enough to wait for you to get back on your feet. Now hurry and clean this up,” I instruct her.
For a moment, it looks like Yui wants to say something, but then she quickly looks away and nods.
“I am right behind you watching your every move, so don’t think about slacking off.”
Without so much as an acknowledgement, Yui brings in cleaning supplies and starts by picking up the broken shards of porcelain. Careless as she tends to be, I expect her to hurt herself during the process, but she finishes the task without a hitch. The cleaning progresses smoothly from then on. Soon, the kitchen is back in its original state. All that’s left now is for her to scrub the floor.
“When you’re done, continue where you left off with cooking and make dinner. Everyone’s waiting, so be quick about it,” I say before heading for the door, but a quick look down at Yui, her back facing me, stops me in my tracks.
Down on all fours, cleaning the floor. The sight of her is pitiful, but even more pitiful is what it stirs deep inside of me—a wretched, sadistic desire.
Change of plans. My brothers will have to wait for just a little longer.
I take out my whip and draw closer. Then, I bend over her as she continues to scrub away, leaning in to whisper in her ear.
“…Time’s up.”
Yui freezes for a moment before moving to look up at me.
“Don’t move a muscle. Hold that position.”
It only takes that much of a sharper tone for her to do as I say. Either she does not understand what I am going to do, or… No, that is just not how this woman is.
Yui is, in fact, eager to be punished.
”Heh… how foolish.” I spit the words and bring the whip down on her back.
The woman lets out a small cry, shivering fiercely.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

the sakamakis
shuu: the opera. genuinely the type of boyfriend who couldn't care less about date nights - he is quite known for being the laziest fucker out there, yet a switch flicks inside of his head once he falls in love with you. it's all about small gestures, sharing the little parts of his life, the things that he enjoys. shuu is a soul of the arts, especially a musical prodigy. despite napping in secluded places and keeping a lot to himself, it would be a huge step into your relationship once he offers randomly on a tuesday to take you to the opera that following weekend. you'll be surprised at first, but excited to say the least. you have never been to the opera before, and being seated in a exclusive booth with your boyfriend all dressed-up to the nines, which was a rare occasion, was honestly doing things to you. and he knew it. that's when his hand started to slowly hike up the expensive golden, satin dress he bought you, emotionless expression and sapphire eyes focused on the soprano hitting the highest notes. and so were you, your slutty, starving moans matching the rhythm as shuu continued to toy with your clit, then add two fingers inside. what an asshole.
reiji: the theater. reiji is a man with a plan and a tight schedule - so are your date nights, carefully crafted by him, including activities that bring great pleasure to the both of you. he is a deeply closeted romantic and wouldn't be caught dead admitting it, yet he also falls in workaholic tendencies which can easily neglect your needs. that's why as a little reward he decided to take you to see hamlet on a friday night, which began with a homemade dinner selectively cooked by him. the wine definitely had an interesting after taste, but you only started to question it once the curtains revealed the actors playing on stage, and a sudden warmth beginning to bother you between your legs and ignite all of your senses. you would spend the whole night trying to sneak glances from your boyfriend and almost beg him to put his hand under your skirt, but he'll only call you mannerless and decide to punish you in the limousine taking you back to the mansion after the play ends. oh, boy. he didn't expect the love drug to hit you so hard and have you ride his cock in the moving vehicle so goddamn hard, but he wouldn't be one to complain about the side effects.
laito: a bar. even though he sometimes gives you some of the shadiest vibes, laito is a man of good taste. that also applies in his fashion sense, but so in his taste for indie locations. on a saturday night, he'll tell you that you have up until midnight to get all dolled up for him, since he wants to take you somewhere nice. it'll be a cozy place downtown, the type of bar where a password is needed at the entrance, then you will go down in the basement and find a cozy, jazz playing place. laito is no stranger to the art of seduction; he will make sure to have you let all of your walls down after two glasses of wine, his hand already on your thigh, lustful gaze behind his eyes. he could fuck you anywhere - the bathroom, the storage room, the back alley, the taxi taking you back home to the mansion, yet he would surprise you by taking you to a love hotel, ordering the most expensive bottle of champagne, covering your tits in the sweet alcohol and licking them clean. he wouldn't be stopping here - you are going to have a night to remember, and the whipped cream awaiting in the hotel room's fridge would be perfectly served with the taste of your sweet, creamed pussy.
kanato: the bakery. his need for sweets can sometimes be as strong as his need for your blood, therefore kanato found the perfect solution to his problem - taking you to one of his favourite bakeries, and having you stuffed with sweets like the witch from hansel and gretel. he wouldn't shy away from getting everything that they have available, nonchalantly pulling out his black credit card. he will even insist on helping you get dressed up for the date, almost making you look like a porcelain doll. and he wouldn't shy away from helping you with your night routine once you get home either, getting on his knees and rolling out your stockings for you. the sight of your plump thighs would be more than enough, instantly filling them with bites and having you squirm under his touch. his tongue will only remember three flavours of the night - the strawberry shortcake, your blood, and the sweet flavour of your needy pussy. teddy will be sitting on his cuck chair in the corner while kanato will tongue the shit out of your burning sex, almost bitting your clit off. he will be quick to tease it with his throbbing cock, and cum all over it, then fucking the cum into it with his still standing erection. what a freak of nature.
ayato: a basketball match. of course his date night idea would be something to match up his taste in sports, not even asking you twice if you enjoy basketball in the first place. seated in the third row, he'll start to question everything once he notices how quick you are to focus on other men - the ones playing, obviously - while your one and only is sitting right next to you and stuffing his face with hot-dogs. this insecurity will only increase his jealousy, and make him drag you furiously into the players' locker room right before they wrap up the match, leaving you 3 exact minutes to fuck before someone catches you. face against the wall, and his puffing chest into your back, he'll make you forget all of their names and only remember his. his thick cock would stretch you so good that your moans will scare the janitor mopping the floors in the outside corridor. ayato would make it his own mission to score as many orgasms as possible, until the match's countdown hits 0. no matter which teams wins, you end up being the winner of the night after he takes you out for some fast food; the post nut clarity hits him too hard, maybe from all of the cardio you guys did by trying not to get caught, even though he was kind of counting on that.
subaru: the park. there are multiple reasons why subaru loves to take you to the park at night - some are the quiet scenery, having less people around since he doesn't like crowds, some are just you smelling the blooming flowers in spring. he isn't the best at keeping calm and feeling under control, but having such moments of bliss with you helps him for sure. subaru is the type to blame you for not wearing a jacket at night once the cool air hits, then offer you his, since he is a vampire that doesn't feel much affected by low temperatures. the sweet sight of you in his oversized jacket would definitely awaken something inside of him, your clothed back suddenly hitting one of the trees, crimson eyes all over you. subaru would be quick to give into his desires, fucking you right in that moment, bitting your neck hungrily. this might just be one of his other reasons, fucking you senselessly in a place anybody could hear you, yet they wouldn't dare crossing his path as his dick would stretch up that sweet pussy, your hips hoisted by his strong, toned arms. he might be the romantic type, but he is also just a sakamaki by blood.
the mukamis
ruki: the library. after completing all of your chores of the week, and being more well-behaved than usually, ruki would decide that going to the library together is more than a fair reward for you. one thing you two share in common is your passion for literature, and him offering to get you at least three books for the month - and write him essays about them, but that's a whole different story - you will be more than excited to scan through the bookshelves, two chosen books already in your arms. he will be quick to follow behind you like a shadow, slowly judging your taste in literature. once you'll stop by the erotica section and try to pick a book from a higher shelf, your tall boyfriend would be quick to take it out for you, one hand spinning you around and slowly pushing you into the wall filled with books. he'll make you read the first twenty pages out loud before buying it for you, to make sure it is the right fit for you taste. skirt hiked up by your thighs, his tongue would flicker circles around your clothed clit in the most teasing manner possible. once you find some kind of composure, he'll be quick to move your panties to the side and keep going as he pushes his ringed fingers inside too.
kou: the club. kou loves to go out, and taking you to his favourite places is one of the sweet favors he likes to grant you as your boyfriend. neon lights playing shadows on your face, you weren't surprised in the least when kou suggested the two of you should hit up the club this saturday. since he is an idol and all, he'll choose an underground location where you could have a lot of fun all night long, without having to worry about annoying fans spotting him. three drinks in, and he'll smudge his lipstick into yours without a shame, grinding his hips into yours on the dance floor. and you wouldn't be surprised either by him dragging you into the bathroom, zipper down, you on your knees taking his length into your greedy mouth. he'd be a piece of shit and make you suck it up to the beat of the music playing loudly in the background. kou is a cruel lover who loves to have you at his mercy, especially stuffing that pretty mouth of yours with his dripping cum. people would be banging the door, telling the two of you to hurry up since the queue is getting longer and longer, but he is more than ready to fuck you relentless as your moans fill in the air, folks being even too embarrassed now to dare opening the goddamn door.
yuuma: a picnic. yuuma isn't necessarily the best when it comes to romantic gestures, but he holds his own ground when it comes to fulfilling your wishes. taking you to a picnic in a secluded area in the woods that only he knows, a meadow covered in flowers and butterflies swaying around, would make you feel like a real life princess. after setting the picnic props, such as the red blanket and the menu containing homemade sandwiches and fresh lemonade, yuuma wouldn't waste a second terrorizing you. after you decided to wear a long sundress with deep cleavage exposing your neck and chest, expect him to forget all about the food and make you his main course. he would make you keep the dress on just on purpose, this tongue and teeth playing with your hard, sensitive nipples. ridding his long girthy cock would fill the meadow with your lewd, wet sounds, scaring all the animals away, making him chuckle. after watching your tits bounce for him, yuuma would change positions and have you take back-shots on the picnic blanket - big, rough hands spanking your ass and grabbing greedily your flesh. he would have a hard time deciding where to finish, since he loves all of the parts of your body. luckily for you, he has enough cum in his balls to make you drown in it. yummy.
azusa: an art gallery. as a sweet and sensitive soul, azusa would decide that spending a sunday afternoon visiting an art gallery in the city would be the perfect date idea for the two of you. you would wear matching outfits, and walk hand in hand through the experimentalist exhibit. if you want to, he'll take pictures of you as you contemplate over the meaning of the paintings just so he could hold onto the memories of your well time spent together. if you were to think that the date finishes once you get home, you'll be extremely incorrect. azusa would want the two of you to make your own piece of art, but coated in each other's blood on a blank canvas sitting on his bedroom floor. oh, how deeply romantic that is. he would slowly bite into your neck, one hand slowly unzipping your jeans and finding instantly the sweet bundle of joy hidden underneath. he'll play with the drops of crimson, smearing them around your body as he'd find the most sensitive places to bite and keep going with his naughty touches. the two of you would end up spooning on the now bloody red canvas, his cock teasingly rubbing itself in between your thighs as he keeps feeding from your shoulder. expect him to pull out his knife collection, since pain goes both ways in your relationship.

SUMMARY | Ruki and Yui go to the library for a study session. Yui can't really concentrate much on studying, though...
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
Our surroundings were completely quiet. It had been a good call to stretch our legs for once, I thought in the back of my mind. Today, we left the house for a little while to go to the library so Yui could prepare for her exams. It was a miracle to be part of a family whose members got along with one another so well, but the mansion—with all its noisiness—was not exactly the best environment for studying.
And so, right now, Yui was quietly solving exercises, brow furrowed all the while.
I had no need for a cram session, so aside from answering any questions Yui asked, I simply did as I pleased and read a novel. Just as I was about to finish it, though, I started noticing Yui was stealing glances at me.
If Yui had trouble solving the exercises, she would have just asked me directly. I figured this time was different, then. After carefully waiting for the right moment to meet her gaze, she pointedly looked away.
“Did you really think I wouldn’t notice?”
Yui apologised, looking a little flustered.
“You need something from me, right? Do you need help with one of the exercises?”
“Not at all. I was just thinking… you look handsome when you get all serious, Ruki…”
—Ah. I sighed, silently berating myself for finding those words so endearing.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

[Ruki approaches you.]
Finally. There you are.
Hm? What’s with this box?
Oh, I see. So that’s why the smell of chocolate was coming from the kitchen earlier.
I could smell it all the way in the living room.
Why are you apologising? I’m not particularly upset about it.
It’s just that you were up all night, clearly up to something. I was a little curious as to what.
Now that I finally know, I just wanted to say it’s a satisfactory explanation. That’s all.
Did you really think I wouldn’t notice?
There’s not a single thing I don’t know about you, after all.
You’d do well to realise that you cannot hide anything from me.
Because every time you pull a stunt like this, I will simply have to punish you again until I can make you understand that.
Although… this time, I’ll forgive you.
Let’s open this box, shall we?
[Ruki opens the box of chocolates and takes one.]
01:17
Mm. They’re quite sweet.
No, it’s okay. You don’t have to make coffee.
I’m used to sweet things, after all.
Besides…
[Ruki pulls you against him.]
You’ve put a lot of effort into these since last night, all for me, right?
You deserve to be rewarded for that.
That’s what a good master does, isn’t it?
I don’t particularly hate sweets either. Like I said before, I’m quite used to sweet things.
It’s all I ever drink, after all.
Do you understand what I’m trying to tell you?
[Ruki embraces you more tightly.]
02:05
The chocolates are sweet, but your blood is sweeter. Heh.
Hey. Come closer.
I just need to confirm whether your blood really is sweeter than these chocolates.
Or rather… I was going to reward you, wasn’t I?
Your reward for being loyal livestock to your master will taste much sweeter than chocolate, I’m sure.

[Shuu senses your presence and wakes up from his slumber.]
Hey, you. What are you thinking, sneaking into someone’s room like that?
Ugh… You woke me up. So, what is it?
If you were going to wake me up (1) for this, I should probably listen to what you have to say.
Ugh, so noisy… Don’t raise your voice like that.
If that’s not the case, then what is it?
Chocolates? Ah, heh.
You never learn, do you? I don’t care about what day it is.
Did you really think I’d be happy about this?
In any case, if you want me to accept them, don’t just hand over the box. It’s too bothersome to open it.
[You open the box for him.]
01:10
Heh. So desperate. You want me to accept them that badly?
Hm? Better feed me, then.
[You raise one of the chocolates to Shuu’s mouth and he eats it.]
Ngh—what is this? It’s way too sweet.
You’ve got some nerve making me eat this.
How about you actually make something that suits my tastes next time?
It’s not as if you don’t know what I like, after all.
Ah… you really are useless, aren’t you?
Heh. Why are you taking it so seriously? I’m only joking.
[Shuu pulls you on top of him.]
01:59
It actually is too sweet, so let me feed on you to cleanse my palate.
My mouth feels too sugary because of these overly sweet chocolates that you decided to bring me without thinking it through, so it can’t be helped.
Better take responsibility for it.
Besides, this is exactly how you wanted me to return the favour, isn’t it?
I’ll teach you what really pleases me. Thoroughly, until even a fool like you will understand.

SUMMARY | You have stomach issues and go to visit your favourite doctor. This ‘medical certificate’ was part of the Rejet goodies distributed at the Animate Girls’ Festival in 2017.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
Diagnosis: Stress-induced gastroenteritis
Notes: Stomach discomfort, abdominal pains, nausea, feverishness, vomiting… Those are typical symptoms of stress-induced gastroenteritis. Medicine will temporarily alleviate the symptoms, but will not provide a permanent fix. The best treatment would be to find out the root cause and expel it from your life…
Any guesses as to what it could be? …Nothing? Well, that’s not going to solve anything, is it? Doesn’t it embarrass you, not being able to solve your own problems? You might want to reflect on that. It might be the cause of your current condition, after all.
…What? Your stomach has started hurting? …I’m sorry.
I might have been a bit too severe just now. Let me prescribe you some medicine first, alright? Make sure you take it exactly the way I tell you to. Also, come by my office several times a week for an examination. Your condition won’t improve if I leave everything to you. I’ll find out the cause of your ailment.
…Rest assured. Next time, I’ll be more patient with you. As much as I can, that is.
I formally declare the above diagnosis.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
SUMMARY | Even with Yui’s health in danger after ganging up on her in a fit of jealousy, both Ruki and Azusa still find themselves vying for her blood… and possibly more.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
In front of Yui’s bedroom door stood a single shadow—Mukami Ruki turned the doorknob and proceeded inside without hesitation. There, he found Azusa, who had been sitting at the girl's bedside for a while, and closed the distance between them.
“That’s enough. Go back to your room. Now.” Ruki was oddly unaware of the venom with which he spat the words. It was pure obsession that unconsciously drove these feelings of jealousy towards Azusa… although even if Ruki had been aware of this fact, he would be loath to admit it.
“But Eve… she still hasn’t woken up…” Azusa said as he continued to try and shake Yui awake. She was still fast asleep, and her breathing was so quiet it almost seemed as though she were not even breathing at all. It was incredibly faint. You had to strain your ears to hear it. “Maybe I… really did take too much of her blood…? Oh no… what if she doesn’t wake up…?” Azusa turned back to the unresponsive body beside him, frowning and mumbling to himself.
“...Do you genuinely think I would let that happen?” Ruki said, letting out an exasperated sigh.
“I don’t, but…”
Azusa trailed off while Ruki stood over him as if to pin him down with his words. “Leave her be… Most of this is your doing, after all. You were reckless and drank too much from her.”
“But… Eve’s blood is… so delicious that…” Before Azusa could finish his sentence with it leaves me wanting more, he raised Yui’s hand to his face ever so gently as though handling something fragile, and promptly trailed his tongue along her unresponsive fingers.
“Ah…!” Almost instantaneously, a crease had formed between Ruki’s brows and he shot his brother a sharp glare.
This response did not go unnoticed by Azusa. “Hehe… is that envy I see…?” In contrast to Azusa’s sluggish way of speaking, he was absurdly attuned to the subtleties of people’s emotions.
In an effort to brush off Azusa’s knowing smile, Ruki’s voice dripped with disdain. “I don’t like it.” In truth, it deeply disturbed Ruki for his little brother to see through him like this. “Very well—if you insist on staying here, I will simply take Livestock back to my room.”
Ruki reached for Yui with an instinctual ease—however, he was immediately met with resistance from Azusa.
“I won’t hand her over… I will be the one to accompany her until she wakes up…” Azusa strained audibly as he gripped Ruki’s arm with great strength. It only demonstrated his stubborn refusal to give up Yui even more.
Ruki shook off his brother’s firm grip and stated, “Livestock is not yours.”
“Well… she isn’t yours either, Ruki…”
An oppressive atmosphere blanketed the room. Only the shrill echo of the ticking clock interrupted the silence.
Ruki was, surprisingly, the first to break the silence. “...What’s wrong with us, being at the mercy of such an ordinary girl?”
“Well… it’s because she’s Eve…” Azusa’s words did not provide much of an explanation, but while Ruki could not think of a better answer to his question either, he did not deny it.
“...I see. If that’s the case, I will just have to discipline Eve until she’s mine.”
“No… she’s mine… my Eve…”
—Just then, the eyelids of the unconscious girl beside them twitched. Both brothers’ eyes fixated on Yui at once.
“How cruel to make me wait. I will teach you who you belong to… with my fangs.”
“Hehe… I won’t lose, so… I will hurt you like you’ve never hurt before… you’ll be in ecstasy…”
All that greeted the girl when she opened her eyes from a long sleep was the sight of the two vampires standing over her, leering.

SUMMARY | Ruki, Kou and Yui go to Saizeriya. That’s mostly it.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
One night around dinnertime, the Mukami brothers had, oddly enough, not all congregated around the dinner table.
“Hm? Have Azusa and Yuma gone out?”
“Yeah, so we’re going out for dinner tonight. Livestock—you too.”
“Oh, alright…!”
Even though I thought this was pretty rare for Ruki, who tended to be the one who tells us we should not indulge in luxuries, Kou pulled me along by the arm with great delight, and so the three of us found ourselves in a family restaurant downtown. I wondered whether this was the first time the Mukami family ever went out for dinner.
“Um…”
“What is it, Livestock?”
“What’s with you today?” I ventured after we were done ordering.
Ruki opened his mouth to speak. “There isn’t much to it. If anything, I just thought it would be cheaper to go out for dinner, considering it would be relatively expensive to buy ingredients to make dinner for just three people.”
“Ah… That sounds like something you would do, Ruki,” Kou said, greedily gulping down his melon soda from the unlimited soda bar.
Truthfully, I also thought it was not unlike Ruki, but… I, a human, was now at a family restaurant with two vampires. No matter how I framed it in my mind, this situation did not make sense and only made me feel incredibly uneasy.
Just as I was thinking this, our orders arrived and we started eating. I had a cheeseburger, Kou had vongole bianco as per usual, and Ruki had the chef’s special: a cold-served pasta.
“Hm? Ruki, what’s wrong?”
“No, it’s…”
We were halfway through dinner when Kou suddenly called out to Ruki. When I looked up to see what was going on, I saw that Ruki had not eaten much.
“Are you feeling unwell, Ruki?” I knew that sort of thing generally did not apply to vampires, but still, I asked.
“No, that’s not it…”
“Ah, I get it now!” Kou clapped his hands together as if in revelation and stood up to swap Ruki’s plate with his own.
“What are you doing?”
“Hm? Nothing in particular,” Kou replied as he happily dug into the cold-served pasta Ruki had ordered, even though vongole bianco was his all-time favourite dish—what on Earth was he doing? I thought it was strange, but Kou just raised the pasta to his mouth and said, “You don’t like strong flavours, do you, Ruki? That’s why I swapped our plates.”
“Sorry. I thought it would not be so bad because the picture on the menu made it look lightly-seasoned, and it’s a cold dish, but…”
“It’s alright. I’m not very picky, anyway,” Kou said, and the two vampires began to move their forks again.
Understanding someone’s feelings with only a few words may be one of Kou’s talents, but still, the exchange felt natural, and I had a hunch Kou was not just showing off his talents this time either. I realised I was a little jealous of him while I picked up my chopsticks again as well.
“It was almost like Kou was the big brother just now,” I said, moving my chopsticks. Kou smiled widely as if to say, right? while Ruki scowled in my direction.
