Corpse Maiden - Chapter 4 4. Showdown

**My eyes slid open as I tried to sit myself up. My body was heavy and my veins were burning like an inferno. My senses wouldn’t immediately return to me altogether. I could barely make out the voices nearby.

“Schera, my body feels funny.”

“Lady Cereza?”

“It’s hot. I don’t feel like myself. It hurts.”

“You are undergoing the bonding process you must endure it before you can reintroduce the infused blood in his system. The longer you allow it to bond the better the odds of success.”

All of a sudden my senses returned. Pain shot through me from where I had been bitten. Blood ran down my neck. I remembered I had ventured into the abandoned section of the school grounds to stay the night at the old Kindergarten building as part of a club hazing.

I remembered I stumbled across two vixen’s who looked to be using a male student as part of some sort of ritual. I remembered I tried to run when I saw her canines grow to unworldly lengths. I remembered I didn’t make it to the front door before I was stopped and whisked back to the original room at an impossibly inhumanly speed. I remembered the painful sensation as her canines breached my skin and burrowed deep into my neck.

I tried to escape. My body moved like it was in cement and my blood felt like it was in agony. I wobbled deathly to the opened door.

“He’s conscious. Now should be a good time to inject your essence.”

Her green eyes faded to red as she made her way to me. I was too weak to block her. She drew me in close before biting me for a second time. I could fill a tiny bit of something flowing back into me as more of my red life force ran free. The painful burning of my body was replaced by a new heat. My eyes no doubt dilated. Life rushed to my member and it grew in my pants.

She smiled intoxicated. My blood was spilling from the side of her drunkenly seductive smile. “Schera…I can’t stop myself.” She slid her hands low and released my cock from its cage. She stroked the shaft with soft gentle hands. The friction felt so good. Against my own will, I gasped holding on to my breath.

The moment she took me into her mouth I shuddered. It was a warmth that couldn’t be matched. Her head bobbed like a buoy. Her mouth was silk. It was like it was made of satin and she was massaging me. She swallowed me to the base taking me to her throat and back out again.

She licked my head taking care to give it her undivided attention. Then she drove her tongue up and down my shaft. Then she pulled back. She rubbed her tongue between her canines with an erotic smirk. She began to remove her panties from underneath her short skirt.

“Lady Cereza. You mustn’t. It is done.” She snatched her away and slapped her. “Regain yourself, my lady.**

“This scent… it’s the delicious aroma I smelled earlier today.” Austin was brought back to reality. He had blacked out when she had bitten him and was in danger of fading again. His body was as solid as stones and he was on fire on the inside. The kind that felt like it would melt his veins.

“Austin!” Schera’s familiar voice called out to him.

His attacker removed herself from him. She was breathing heavily due to eating his blood she didn’t even become aware of Schema until she had already flung her away from him with her full force. She adjusted herself midair and landed softly on her feet.

She hung her head low gritting her teeth well beyond anger. “Who the hell has the audacity to interrupt me while I eat? I will rip out your still-beating heart!”

Schema, using her fingers, slid her frames up her nose. “This human belongs to the El Bernard house. Leave him be Lady Eleanor.” Schera brandished her favorite silver lance.

“Ohoho. You’re that brat Cereza’s aide. Certainly, someone of low birth cannot think to challenge me. You are just a noble’s aide, after all, not much of a noble at that.” Her words we like daggers as an unseen aura manifested around her smelling of evil. Even if you are the crown princess’ aide you will not be spared strict, swift and just punishment.”

“I have no desire to commit such an atrocity.” Her fingers once again repositioned her glasses. She stood firm as she was engulfed in her own devil’s aura. “However, it would be reckless of you to attempt an imprint with this particular human. He already belongs to Lady Cereza. You do know the consequences of drinking another’s imprinted human.”

“I’m no dummy. If that was true, his blood would carry a repugnant odor, it wouldn’t smell nearly as exquisite.” Schera looked away, the same twinkle in her eye from earlier had returned. She looked embarrassed. It was only a fraction but Austin noticed it. Something was affecting her. Eleanor caught on too. “Oh? Could it be you wanted this fragrance for yourself?”

Schera shot back defensively shaken. “Nonsense!”

“At any rate his true master has already been decided.” She flicked her fangs out. “I’ve already bitten him. Now to finalize.”

Schema’s eyes widened. “Impossible! Lady Cereza already drank from him not two long ago. He is her imprint.” Schera attempted to block Eleanor’s advance to Austin and only then did she realize her legs had been iced to the ground.

Eleanor cackled triumphantly then staggered over to Austin. She had been suppressing the growing pain in her body. She needed to complete the bond before she passed out and died. She wasn’t even sure if his body would accept it. If he rejected the imprint he would die and she would be in a state of prolonged agony. It was her own fault for letting her emotions trap her in this predicament. No one else to blame but herself.

She reached his body and lifted him with her waning might. No, she would definitely blame him. If not for him she wouldn’t be taking this gamble. If she crapped out she could be in a very painful comatose state for an unknown period. If he survived she would personally see to it he suffers.

She bit down hard on her earlier bite mark squeezing in their bonded blood. The taste that came back was sweeter than anything she had ever tasted before and the scent was even more magnificent than it had been moments ago. She greedily gulped down more. Her body was electrified as endorphins flooded her systems.

She felt her nipples bead through the blouse of her uniform. She was getting turned on, she could feel her panties soaking. She knew only one thing could be the cause, but despite wanting to stop drinking her body wasn’t listening to her command. And soon the only thing she could think of was his lips.

Unable to fight it any longer she kissed him. Passion mixed with desire. She put all of her feelings into it. One arm wrapped around his neck, as she forced him into her. Mere seconds ago she was cursing his existence and now all she wanted was him. She didn’t understand it, but she did have an inexplicable desire to do more with him.

Her tongue snaked its way into Austin’s mouth. His tongue met hers and together they did their own little tango. It felt good, the way she was dancing in his mouth. She kissed him like he was hers and she was his. Like she was trying to make a claim.

Strength was returning to him. His hands glided down her back. She moaned, never even coming up for air. His hardness pushed against her softness making her moan even harder. She pressed closer and started to rub herself against it. The friction was almost enough to make him explode. He felt a ping of guilt for wanting to smother his massive erection into her, too lay into her with all the might of his new desire. She looked like nothing more than a child but reason had long since forsaken him.

She went to his neck and bit again release more liquids for her to devour. She was lost in drunken bliss. Her hips moved vigorously against his wood. Her mouth came open. Her body drowned in a whirlpool of sharp pleasure as she climaxed. From the corner of her mouth blood and drool had begun to drip down her chin.

Schera had chipped away at her ice-covered legs with her lance just enough to break free. She had escaped at a perfect time, Eleanor didn’t seem like she was done with Austin. She couldn’t let things get any further out of hand. She continued her forward charge.

Eleanor, who was kissing a sitting Austin who that was pinned against the wall, turned just as Schera’s lance came into reach. A torrent of wind halted Schera and then pushed her back all together.

Schera clenched her teeth. “I’ve no choice.” She stood straight up a single vertical hand pressed to the center of her face. She glowed gold as a pair of Roman styled sandals materialized on her feet.

The sandals were created using Schera’s enhancement type blood magick. It would easily triple her already insane speed and make her as swift as the air itself. Schera broke the sound barrier with her first step. Eleanor didn’t have the reaction time to respond before Schema was on her.

Eleanor turned in genuine fear. She hadn’t respected her enough to give her the full attention she deserved and that was a mistake on Eleanor’s part. Suddenly Schera was back in her starting position with Austin in arm. Eleanor looked back to where Austin had been seconds before. Nothing.

Schera’s sandals dispersed.

“No! Give him back!” Eleanor screamed, almost pleading. “He is rightfully mine.”

“I am sorry Lady Eleanor. But under the orders of my lady, I am to watch after Austin in her place.”

Eleanor flew into a rage her hands began to glow a pure white as she began to step forward. She made several strides before someone appeared like magick in front of her. “Young misses. You must stop this foolishness.”

“Deric!?” Eleanor blurted returning to her senses.

“Professor? Langs?” Austin weakly tried to stand on his own and focus his eyes but fell over and out of consciousness.

“No, you don’t have permission to die! Get up, you!” Schera went to his side. Then turning to Eleanor. “How much of him did you take?”

Eleanor shifted. A wave of guilt hit her like a tsunami. Then she adjusted. “I…I may have overdone it a little. But it wasn’t my fault.” She directed herself to Deric teary-eyed. “Don’t be mad I didn’t mean to. It was like a lost my mind.”

“No time for that now, we have to get him to the medical wing and get him a transfusion now!”
