   The morning sunlight shone in from the bedroom window forcing Michelle to return from sleep. Slowly her life returned, coming with a blurry awareness and visuals of her blurred vision.

    Michelle rubbed her eyes, slightly oversized pajamas slumped slightly because the top three buttons were not attached, revealing her cleavage with a small mole on one side.

    She can see the shadow of a man who stands against the sunlight. He crossed his arms in front of his chest, with one of his hands holding a sword that he usually carries anywhere, even in his own house.

    "Ginny, give me five more minutes. I am still very sleepy. You can wake me up later after—" said Michelle stopped when she was about to lie back down from her sit position.

    In an instant, Damien was in front of the girl, crouched in front of Michelle's body with his sword behind her neck, preventing her from lying back down. Sensing something on her neck, Michelle opened her eyes wide.

    Damien, that man was already squatting in front of his body. Damien brought his face closer. Michelle was about to turn her head away from Damien's face but, her neck got caught by the sheath, which made her unable to move. Damien's face drew closer, making Michelle's heart beat wildly. Finally, the girl closed her eyes, a sign that she had given up and would accept all the possibilities that would happen.

    In a split second, Michelle imagined something quite erotic about the man who was now squatting in front of her. From the good morning kiss that might get hotter, until finally, no one will be able to stop again and take it to the next level, but what happened next was beyond Michelle's expectation.

    Kiss~ ... Kiss~ ...

    Damien gently kissed Michelle's eyes which were closed alternately from left to right, then turned his face back, causing Michelle to re-open her eyes and frown.

    Damien smiled, "Hopefully, that's enough to help you get up since we have something to do this morning. Ginny will help you get ready." said Damien as he buttoned the three buttons of Michelle's pajama which were not properly attached. Daniel got up from his squatting position and left Michelle alone in her room. As soon as the door was closed, Michelle lay back on her back.

    Both of her hands held her chest, felt a completely chaotic heartbeat. Her cheeks flushed at the thought of Damien's close face. Michelle took a pillow and buried her face. She shouted as loud as she could.

    She did not expect to be made like a crazy person like this, even though Damien is just her brother, her older brother who is charming and also very sexy.

    "I want you to meet Alexis, one of the vampire hunter members and my subordinates whom I rely heavily on, especially in close combat. A sadistic teenage girl who once cornered a noble class vampire alone by herself."

    Damien opened one of the doors in his mansion. There was a beautiful girl with an innocent face, blonde hair, and light-color lingerie that matched her skin perfectly.

    At first glance, Michelle had doubts about Damien's statement. Of course, because that girl looked so fragile, like someone who wanted to be protected. Nobody would believe that the girl who was sitting on the bed was a sadist who had almost defeated a vampire lord alone.

    Apart from her prowess in close combat, Alexis has a large scythe which, was classified as a mystical weapon. The shape resembles a sickle that is often depicted as being carried by grim reapers.

    There are only a few mystical weapons in the world. Alexis's scythe and Damien's sword that can kill anyone in one stroke are two of them. And, every weapon that is classified as a mystical weapon has a curse in it.

    If Damien's sword had a curse like a virus, or perhaps it was more accurately described as a curse if it was scratched on any part of the body, the curse would immediately strike the victim's heart. Unlike Alexis's scythe.

    Alexis's scythe has a multiple attack curse, making anyone hit by the scythe will feel five to ten hits. So just once Alexis slashes her opponent using her scythe, her opponent will feel cut five to ten times, depending on how many drops of blood Alexis sacrificed.

    Yep. A mystical weapon always has something the user must sacrifice in exchange for the immense power they receive.

    Damien will also not excluded from that. Alexis's scythe requires her to sacrifice ten drops of her blood to deal ten times the damage to her opponent. Damien's sword made his bloodlust as a vampire tripled.

    Every time Damien cuts his opponent, the closer he is to losing his human side as his thirst for blood increases.

    The limit that Damien can tolerate is three hits. If Damien killed more than three people with his sword, he would instantly turn into a bloodthirsty monster that didn't care if it was an opponent or friend.

    That's why Damien only used his sword against noble class vampires. To face the lesser vampires, he would fight them using his strength, not relying on the power of his mystical sword.

    Although the effect would disappear after one day calmed his mind inside his room.

    Seeing Michelle's expression like that made Damien laugh in his mind. "Alexis is the one who will teach you the basics of dealing with vampires."

    Michelle turned around with a surprised expression, making Damier smile. "Take it easy. I'm not going to tell you to hunt vampires or anything. It's just for self-defense. Because, you know, I can't stay with you for a whole day."

    Maybe Damien did say that, but there is another purpose that makes Damien bother asking Alexis to teach Michelle the basics of dealing with vampires.

    As you know, Damien used to be a human until a female vampire turned him into a vampire. Her name is Juliette Abigail, a female vampire who can torture anyone from within their body. To be precise, Juliette could control any creature with blood in them. She really can bend blood.

    She is one of the reasons why Damien wants to train Michelle. Because at that time, Damien saw Juliette try to use her strength to control Michelle's blood. But Michelle didn't seem to feel anything.

    Damien doesn't know what strength his younger sister has, but maybe he can use it to face Juliette when the time comes.
