Chapter 70: The Blood Partner

Valerie knows that her injury this time was quite severe. Maybe on par with what she experienced when she faced Gunther. She did not have ice daggers pierced all over her body. But the Shadows had lifted her high and slammed her hard into the hard ground.

Even Valerie was sure that some of her ribs were crushed because of it. She needs to be treated. At least one had to straighten the position of one's bones before the body healed itself. She also needs to drink human blood, although it would take time to heal.

Besides, what worried her right now was that the blood didn't stop flowing from her nose. She probably had some pretty serious internal injuries. Or some of her bone fragments had injured her organs?

Drink another vampire's blood? Of course Valerie knew about it. She even gave her last blood to Raphael when she welcomed death in her previous life. She knew that drinking the blood of a fellow pureblood vampire of a different gender would give her strength.

But it was a big commitment. Because every vampire must be absolutely sure if they want to have a blood partner. Because after they tasted the blood of a vampire—they couldn't choose another blood partner. Meaning the blood of other vampires wouldn't have the same effect.

'Blood partners' were a way for some vampires to gain more power. This was not taboo in military circles. Many couples in Florence were blood partners. They were usually husband and wife.

This was also one of the reasons that Valerie made up to convince her parents. She said she might become Raphael's blood partner. Therefore they must often be together and take care of each other.

But Valerie was never one hundred percent about it. She knew Raphael's feelings for her weren't serious. She did it because he wanted Valerie to return to the military. Would he not regret it later?

"Are you sure?" Valerie asked in a weak voice.

"You're my wife, I told you I don't take marriage as a plaything..this is not a game for me. We don't know if there will be more Shadows like them to come. You need to recover quickly," Raphael's tone sounded a little urgent. He turned pale as the blood continued to flow from Valerie's nose and saw her leg which looked broken and also bleeding.

Valerie couldn't be stubborn. She opened her mouth and closed her eyes weakly. She bit Raphael's left wrist and noticed as his blood started to pump out.

Valerie also tasted the first drop. The taste may not be as delicious as human blood. Slightly sharp and piercing the throat. But also not bad. Valerie felt power coursing through her body. The blood was like a shot of adrenaline that immediately forces the body's cells to work.

The Vampire's regeneration ability she had was now boosted. Valerie felt her body warm. She couldn't drink too much. But her instincts told her she couldn't stop until she had enough.

Raphael crouched next to her while covering his own mouth with his right hand. The man made a slightly embarrassed expression. He enjoyed what Valerie did. There was a feeling of intimacy and passion that surged over his body at this moment. Raphael immediately felt guilty. How could he possibly arouse desire for a woman who was lying weak and badly injured like Valerie?

After a few awkward minutes. Valerie stopped drinking. Her eyes looked redder than usual. She sat down, watching her leg recover. Now she just needed to make sure all the bones were in the right places. Or she may recover but become a little limp or crippled.

"I think I'll be fine," Valerie nodded. Raphael smiled at her as he straightened his sleeves again. He then hugged Valerie as if he wanted to comfort her.

"I don't know, I've come to understand your family's feelings a little. Being a knight is a dangerous thing..but i think you won't be willing if I forbid you from joining the military, right?" Raphael asked.

"Are you crazy? I've worked so hard to get here. And weren't you the one who helped me with this? If not to bring me back to the military—our marriage is useless," Valerie shook her head stubbornly.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to criticize you. Of course I support your decision. I'm just worried,"

"Yeah, you should worry even more..I'm useless, I can't beat any of them. I can't use Apollon properly," Valerie blamed herself.

"Lady Valerie," Caesar's voice called out.

"Sir Petrovsky?" Valerie answered weakly. The man looked fitter. Resting for a while had recovered his strength. He also seemed to have been drinking from the donor earlier. Fortunately the whole village respected Valerie's request not to be hostile to Caesar anymore.

"Let me see the wound on your leg," he said, then crouched down next to her.

Raphael caught his hand.

"I advise you never to do that. She's a married woman," said Raphael sharply.

"Married? Less than a month ago she was single," Caesar looked confused.

"A lot has happened, now Valerie Dubois is my wife," Raphael said coldly. Caesar was silent, he did not smile anymore. This was news that had never crossed his mind.

"What are you going to do with the Shadows you captured?" Valerie broke the silence. She didn't understand why Raphael had to say the marital status of the two of them with a fierce expression?

Caesar returned to his mission. He was ordered to bring a Type C Shadows alive to Rutherford's laboratory. He didn't really understand what the general Avalon would do to them. What was clear, the massive escape of the Shadows Type-C had disrupted all of Rutherford's plans.

The higher ups of Avalon had given Rutherford a stern warning. He must take full responsibility for the mess he made. Both Avalon and Florentia were also still investigating about those Shadows. What are their goals? What are their plans? If their existence begins to threaten the Avalons, then they would not allow it either.

"Avalon is not resuming research on Type C Shadows. At least that's what I can tell you."

"Raphael!" Brianna ran from inside one of the residents' houses, where she had been hiding safely since the Type C Shadows attacked. Her eyes were puffy and she was still pale with fright. But there was an expression of relief on her face. She hugged Raphael's arm tightly and occasionally sobbed.

"What happened? Why did the Shadows chase you all the way to the village?" .

Raphael confirmed the brief report that Chloe had given him. Said the Shadows were after Brianna's chariot. Why would they deal with a duke's daughter?

"Hey!" Caesar is now dealing with the first Shadows Type C figure whose body was now disabled. His four limbs and hands had been amputated earlier. He woke Shadows who was now starting to close his eyes. Caesar could see that his wounds had been burned by Vulcan's attack to prevent them from healing. But the Shadows were starting to recover.

The horse-faced shadows growled at him.

"Looks like your tongue is fine right? I didn't cut it on purpose. Now tell me what's your goal? Why are you fighting us?" asked Caesar.

"You Shadows are Avalon's property..but why are you guys also fighting Avalon?" he continued.

Shadows chuckled.

"Florentia and Avalon are our enemies,"

"Who is your leader?" Raphael joined the interrogation.

"Why should I say it? Why don't you guys just kill me? I'm just a crippled vampire looking for justice."

"You talk about justice when you have abused vampires and humans. You destroyed our city, killing mercilessly and doing mischief. Is that justice you're talking about?" Raphael looked at the Shadows with a cursing look.

"What else can we do but make life difficult for you? That's justice for us. Rutherford created us as merciless evil monsters. We don't want to be taken advantage of by vampires. . . we are free beings," he chuckled again.

"Why are you after me?" Brianna asked him while still hiding behind Raphael's body.

He chuckled again, making everyone who heard him feel goosebumps. But he refused to speak further. Caesar Petrovsky crouched down and brought his eyes to him. He tried to use his Vampire powers.

"I see your soul, I have conquered it. Now tell me, what is your goal in pursuing this woman?" Caesar uses the mind-manipulating abilities.

The shadows' shoulders shook. He tried to remain silent but his mouth opened on its own.

"We—we're trying to get the duke's daughters and the powerful vampires to carry our child—" he said while biting his lip occasionally. He looked at Caesar with a cursing look. Brianna squealed in horror, feeling that what Shadows had just said was a curse to her ears. Then the Shadows rebelled. He bit his own tongue until it broke. There was heavy bleeding. He didn't allow himself to speak any further.. Caesar also felt he was no longer useful and cut off his head to end his suffering.
