[Kanato x Reader] Business (Part 4)

Kanato pressed his hand on my mouth to make me shut up. “Be quiet. I don't want to hear this! Didn't you say I didn't change at all? It's not that long ago so why would you change so much? We're still friends, right?!”, shouted the vampire, his voice trembling. He was about to cry again.
I sighed and placed my hand on his. He pulled it away from my mouth and stared down at me frustrated. I hated the look he gave me. It made me feel guilty even though I shouldn't. He was a vampire and vampires are predators after all. I had no chance. There was no resisting. I had fallen for him completely. I knew that and still couldn't do anything against it.
“Kanato, calm down. We're still friends. This didn't change at all. I was wrong with what I said earlier. I will no longer try to run, I promise.” I tried to smile as I placed my hand on his cheek again, trying to comfort him.
Eventually he nodded, moved away from me and opened the heavy doors of the closet. My eyes ache from the sudden bright light. Kanato grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the closet, grabbed Teddy and dragged me down the corridor.
“Wh-Where are we going, Kanato?” I tried to get out of his painful grip but of course that was useless. The wild look in his eyes frightened me but I stopped struggling since it would only make things worse.
“You'll follow me everywhere until we're married. If someone else touched you...you'd be dirty and then I had to dispose of you. I hate when someone else plays with my toys. I'm not sharing...” His words made me shudder. For some reason it wasn't an unpleasant feeling though. I felt safe even though he had just told me that he would kill me when someone else touched me.
“I-I see...” This pathetic reply was everything I could think of. I was still so confused by the situation and my feelings. “Would you please tell me where we are going, Kanato?”
He looked back at me and suddenly opened a door, shoving me inside the room with enough strength to make me fall on the floor. I hit my knees but I knew that complaining would only make him angry. I got up and looked back at the door. The heavy door was closed and I couldn't find Kanato...until his hands were placed on my eyes, making me wince in shock.
“Guess where we are, ___. You have only one chance but if your guess is correct you'll get a treat.”, said the boy, I could hear the anticipation in his words.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to get a good look of the room's furniture. I had only seen the door and the grey stone tile so I was rather unsure of what to say but soon something caught my attention. The smell.
“This room smells like sweets and tea and it smells like...you. Is this your room, Kanato?”
Nothing. For a few seconds I couldn't hear anything but my own breath. He didn't response so I started to feel uncomfortable.
“CORRECT!”, shouted Kanato all of a sudden. He pulled his hands away from my face and forced me around, smiling at me broadly. “You're very smart, princess.”
I finally got a better few of the room. It was huge, had a fireplace and a giant bed. On a small table in front of a giant couch there was a tablet with two full tea cups and a small cake. It smelled delicious but his cold hands forced me to look back at him.
“I'm a bit disappointed that you found out so quickly...I wanted to play a little longer but now it's time for the treat I promised you!” Kanato grabbed my hand and pulled me toward the table, shoving me down on the couch. “The prize for guessing correctly is a piece of cake!” He sat down besides me and cut the cake into pieces. I wondered where the knife came from all of a sudden but the cake distracted me again. I haven't eaten anything good since I arrived. Kanato wouldn't let me eat anything than hard bread or cold soup. I couldn't wait for it and smiled at him happily. Maybe a bit too happily. He suddenly gave me a mischievous grin.
Kanato put a piece of the cake on a plate and placed the cake on his lap, grabbing after the fork. “Say 'Aahh', ___.” He was going to feed me.
I quickly shook my head as he held the fork with a piece of cake in front of my mouth. “I can eat on my-” His glare silenced me and I slowly opened my mouth.
“Aahh...” I knew I was looking like an idiot and my cheeks burned red.
Kanato smiled satisfied and proceeded to feed me. The cake was perfect and distracted me from the situation I was in. I've never eaten a cake this good and compared to the food I had eaten in the past weeks this was heaven.
A few minutes later Kanato placed the empty plate on the table and started to eat his piece. It was horrible to watch him eat all this cake while I got only a small piece. Of course I didn't say anything. A small piece was still better than nothing.
“Do you want more, princess?”, asked the vampire as he finished his second piece. Only one piece of cake was left.
“Y-Yes. Of course only if you don't want it...” My answer made him chuckle and he put the last piece of cake on his plate, making me nod silently. Of course he wouldn't let me have it.
Kanato scraped some of the icy off with the fork and held the fork up. “Come here and lick it off. On all fours.” He chuckled.
My eyes just widened but I did what he told me to do. I pulled my legs on the big couch and crawled over to him, stopping a few inches away from the fork. My cheeks were red like a tomato.
“Good. Now lick it off”
I nodded and licked the icy off the fork. The icy was a dream despite the embarrassing situation. After I licked the fork clean he scraped some of the icy off again and ran the fork up and down his cheek. I could only watch him confused.
“Lick it off, ___.” He sounded dead serious but he was still smirking.
“Kanato I-...This is embarrassing...”
“LICK IT OFF!” He shouted at me enraged, grabbed my hair and pulled on it roughly, making me cry out.
“Alright! I'm sorry! I'll do it! I'm sorry!” He had pulled quite a few hairs out as he finally let go. Scared but still with hesitation I moved up to his cheek. I had to be careful. I didn't want to give him another reason to be angry. Eventually I stuck my tongue out and slowly licked the icy from his cheeks. I could feel how Kanato tensed as my tongue came in contact with his cheek. He quickly shoved me away, almost throwing me off the couch. The vampire then wiped his face clean with his sleeve, almost furiously.
“That's enough. You look tired. Change into your nightgown and go to bed.” He picked Teddy up and walked over to the bed. A white dress had been placed on the pillow. He grabbed it and threw it on the ground.
I went to pick it up, feeling his stares pierce my back. “Wh-Where can I change?”
“What a stupid question. Here.”
His words made me step back. I shook my head and looked down. Was he mocking me again or did he not know that this was inappropriate? “I don't want to.”, I responded and looked to the ground.
“Do it-” His voice was dark. I got goosebumps and started to feel cold for some reason. “-or I will.”
My face changed from red to a paler pink and cold sweat ran down my temple. He grinned as he watched me start to unbutton my blouse.
“I'll turn around if it bothers you.” Kanato laughed as I nodded and then turned around.
I pulled my clothes off my body as far as I could and slid into the white dress quickly. “I'm done...You can turn around again.” My voice was still trembling.
“Why would you be embarrassed about this? I've seen you naked when you were a child.” Kanato chuckled and walked over to me, putting his hands on my shoulders.
“That's something different. I was a child and-” I stuttered, stepping away from him and out of his hold. He seemed to be just more amused about this.
“I'll do something against this then. You mustn't feel awkward if you undress in front of me.” To my surprise Kanato started to open the buttons of his shirt. I simply stared at him as the shirt fell to the ground and he moved closer and closer. My legs wouldn't move and soon he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer. Kanato's upper body wasn't very muscular. He was thin and pale yet had a flawless skin. As he pulled me closer I automatically placed my arms over my chest as a desperate attempt to protect myself. Unfortunately my hands were now on his bare skin and made my knees tremble.
“Kana-”, I stuttered and looked away. “Kanato, please let go of me. Th-This is...even worse.”
The vampire removed his hands from my back and grabbed my chin again. Like always I closed my eyes tightly, trying to think of something else. He didn't bite me though. He planted a kiss on my cheek and smiled at me in the most innocent manner possible. “It's so fun to tease you, princess.”
I stepped back and nodded quietly. “I will go to bed now.” I didn't let him say anything and almost jumped on the bed, wrapping the blanket around me. I only heard him chuckle and then the lights turned off. Of course Kanato didn't leave but I could no longer see or hear him. It took me quite a while to calm down but eventually I fell asleep.

As I opened my eyes again the room was brightly lit. It had no windows but the light from the lamps was just as bright as the daylight. With a yawn I sat up and looked around. I couldn't see anyone so I wondered why all the lights were turned on. With an annoyed sigh I let myself fall into the pillow again. I had been sure this was Kanato's fault. He wanted to wake me up and tease me again. The moment I fell back into bed he appeared out of the nowhere. Right besides me and one of his hands on my stomach, holding me down.
“How did you sleep in my bed?”, whispered the vampire and moved closer, nuzzling his face into my neck. I could feel how he smelled on me but instead of pushing him away I simply nodded.
“I slept well. Can I ask you something?” He nodded. “Why are the lights on?” Suddenly Kanato's hand moved from my stomach to my thigh, rubbing it slightly. He wore that mischievous grin again and then laughed loudly at my face. I could only stare at him with widened eyes and a bright red face.
“To see your face when I do this! This is hilarious!”, said the vampire and kept laughing as I tried to escape.
“Ka-Kanato, stop! Please stop!” I had given up already as he began to laugh again and let go of me.
“You look really cute when you're sleeping but I started to grow bored of watching you sleep so I turned the lights on...You can't sleep like that, can you?” He chuckled and brushed the hair out of my face.
“N-No, I can't. What time is it? Is it still night?”, I asked him and tried to smile. I'm pretty sure it looked like a stupid grimace though.
“Around 9 am.”
“Okay. I'm no longer tired anyway.” I took a deep breath and sat up. As I wanted to get up from the bed Kanato grabbed my arm though.
“You know what I'm really looking forward to?”, he asked and grinned at my clueless face. I shook my head and he grinned even wider. “Ho-ney-moon.”, he whispered and I froze. I was completely paralysed.
“Wh-what?” My voice was silent and not only my face started to heat up. My entire body got hot and I felt dizzy.
“The night...our bodies will...join together...”
