The Great Vampire General is a Girl! - Chapter 81
As soon as Valerie entered her room when she was feeling frantic, Raphael immediately greeted her by pulling her hand and giving her a hot kiss. Valerie was taken aback by the sudden attack. Even though she was used to facing enemies who attacked silently. Raphael might be good at reconnaissance. Valerie wasn’t prepared for that.
His kiss was so forceful, full of passion and obsession. It all flowed without being able to be restrained by Raphael. His lips were biting, crushing Valerie’s lips which were sweet and cold. His tongue forced his way in and gave Valerie an exploration that made her body weakened.
She complied, as Raphael transferred the kiss to another part of her body. Raphael was too late to stop when it came to this stage. Valerie couldn’t hold back her sighs, as well as a low moan as she asked Raphael to slow down a little.
“Raph, please,” sighed Valerie, which didn’t really make a point. What was she begging for? Did she ask Raphael to stop his touch? Because she had something important to say. Or did she even tell her dashing husband to continue whatever He was doing now?
Raphael ignored it, he pressed Valerie against the bedroom wall. He didn’t even think about bringing her to bed. His once closed gaze focused solely on his wife, who in a few days quickly became a new obsession for him. Raphael didn’t think that he would be addicted to something other than blood.
Her reactions, her moans, the way she pleaded, and her honest, hot-tempered body language had captivated him. When Valerie seemed ready, Raphael entered her firmly as if there wasn’t another day he could sleep with her.
“Raph—” Valerie couldn’t even finish his name properly.
No romantic words. No words of love or seduction took place. They share emotions with their bodies. Valerie now accepted Raphael Chastain as her owner.
***
That was a little bit brutal. Too Sudden. But Satisfying.
Valerie was still holding her breath, with her legs and body limp and the blanket covering her body covered with kiss marks. They did it a few times and Valerie thought Raphael might have marked her all over. She was more mature now, she was no longer easily blushed. What else do newlyweds do? Although Raphael might be a bit too much.
She glanced at her husband who had his back to her. This was the first time Valerie focused on his sturdy and well-built back. She saw a terrible scar there. For the knights it was a trophy to be proud of. A sign of masculinity.
“Raphael, did you sleep?”
He kept quiet.
“Come on, no one can sleep after what we just did,” Valerie smirked. Now she could tell dirty jokes even though after that she was ashamed of herself.
“Don’t talk to me,”
“Why?”
“I’m a bastard who fucked you like an animal,” Raphael cursed himself. He felt guilty. He felt like the men who used his power to dominate the women. Even though he had sworn he didn’t want to be a man like that. He promised to treat his wife with respect. Making sure they still feel their dignity and grace.
But what was he doing now? He attacked Valerie out of lust. Sleep with her many times without being willing to stop until he had enough. It was something he couldn’t accept now that he was sane. That was not the behavior of a noble man at all.
He didn’t know why his blood suddenly rose when he saw Valerie, especially when he came into contact with her. His brain thought about all sorts of obscene things that he had never even experienced. He wanted to continue to touch her. He wanted to make Valerie moan His name over and over again when he entered her.
“Err… It’s okay..you, maybe just a little too enthusiastic about this honeymoon, raph—” Valerie wanted to make Raphael feel better.
Like an animal she said, Valerie didn’t know. If Raphael compared himself to a cat or a horse—perhaps he was more than them. Sbe didn’t know what animal he was using as a comparison.
What he had done recently to Valerie was completely out of character. Valerie initially thought her marriage would be tasteless. Because from the start they got married to bring Valerie back to join Florentia. Raphael even said that he didn’t want to touch her yet because he was worried that she might get pregnant too soon. The man who always kept his promise had now broken his own word.
Raphael was now sitting half lying down with a blanket covering his waist down. He then ruffled his own hair, still angry with himself.
Valerie also recalled Alex’s story. Did his desire to keep touching his wife happen because he just awakened his demon DNA? Because there were reportedly side effects from every power they received. There were those who were constantly thirsty for blood like Jasper, there were those who are constantly hurting themselves, there were also those who have a desire to have sex more than the average vampire.
That meant, when Raphael drank her blood and for the first time touched her—it might have been the trigger for his current thirst for Valerie.
“I don’t think it’s entirely your fault,” Valerie spoke again.
“What do you mean?”
“Raphael, when you fought Caesar the last time—before we fought at Taverin—I saw you transform. You transformed, just like Jasper. I didn’t realize it until recently. Caesar called it the Demon’s DNA, did you know that?”
Raphael paused and looked at his wife thoughtfully.
“Of course I know, but I still refuse to believe that I’m like them. I think I can handle it,” Raphael evaded.
“You’d better ask someone about this. What about General Maxwell?”
“I’ve never consulted anyone, Val. Why are you so sure I have that DNA?”
“Because I’ve seen Jasper, and he looks just like you,”
Raphael scratched his chin in thought.
“Will I one day be like Jasper?”
“I do not think so,”
“Why would you say that?” Valerie felt her throat constrict. He couldn’t say. Even though he knew that Raphael might be the only vampire who could hold the demonic DNA in him, even talk to it.
Grevovich had bewitched Valerie. he made a contract with her soul without her knowing the details. That was a bad thing, the contract shouldn’t be valid. But Valerie could remember everything because the Avalon general did something to her soul.
Valerie had to ask him more.
“Because I know you have strong self-control and discipline. I don’t think you will lose to that DNA,” Valerie said evasively.
“I can’t even hold myself from touching you. How can you be so confident?” refute it.
“That’s why you should talk to someone in Florentia. It doesn’t just happen to some pure-blood vampires. Besides, I think what you did to me is still natural,” Valerie ended her sentence with a slightly embarrassed expression.
“You don’t hate it?” Raphael confirmed, he lifted his wife’s chin to observe her expression.
“No,” Valerie shook her head, then she blushed a little even though she still had a serious face.
Raphael then grabbed her body and hugged her tightly. This time there was no lust from the interaction. Valerie felt the honesty and sincerity of his touch at this moment. He cares for Valerie and thinks about her feelings. Valerie didn’t want Raphael to blame himself.
“I’ll take care of you, cherish you and protect you, Valerie,” he said quietly.
“I know,” Valerie responded.
Raphael was a perfectionist who values his status and titles. He wouldn’t do anything to hurt his name. So, Valerie knew that the man would make a good husband for her.
“But—” Valerie seemed hesitant to continue.
“What?”
When Valerie had walked into her room in a huff—she wanted to ask Raphael something. But all the kisses and touches had melted her. She was a little doubtful at the moment, was she going to make the right decision?
“I wanted to ask what you were talking about with Gregovich. From the look on your face, something happened right? Want to tell me?” Investigate Raphael again.
“Raph, when will you be back on duty in Florentia?”
“Two months,” he said firmly.
“What if-”
“Say, why do you look doubtful?” Raphael asked while looking into her eyes.
There was something different about the way Raphael had treated her. Now Valerie felt she had a real lover. Raphael was indeed a gentleman. But he used to still limit his interactions with Valerie. This honeymoon has drastically changed their relationship. Maybe, love will really grow between the two of them someday.
“I don’t think I can join the military right away..maybe you should go to Florence first.”
“Why? I’ve arranged the schedule so we can work together,”
“I know, but— it’s about Apollon. I want to be stronger. So I’m thinking about training with General Gregovich for a few months. Will you let me?” Valerie asked, with a pounding heart. She was worried about her husband’s reaction.
Raphael didn’t answer.. He took a deep breath, put his shirt and pants back on and then left his room.
