Aisa tossed the demon off of her and towards me, allowing me to carry her with ease. My strength was much higher than Aisa, so this task was nothing more than a breeze. Although… yeah, even with my high strength, I could still feel how heavy she was.
"Alright, where are we going?" I asked the group. Nobody had any ideas of how to proceed from here as we could essentially be called wanted now. Not only were we housing such an immensely strong creature, but we also had her horns which I assume held tons of power. "Alright, let's just go back to the vampire estate. We can't really leave the city. Any disagreements?"
There were no objections to this statement, so we quickly exited the warehouse after I moved the woman onto my back, allowing me to carry her faster across the city. There wasn't much chaos yet, but over time, and as we approached closer to the vampire estate, I heard some chatter of what happened at the auction house. We were labeled villains, but our appearances were never described nor displayed. So, we were in the clear for now, allowing for a nice and easy entrance back to my base, where I was just praying the vampire would let us stay.
But, surprisingly, as we entered through the front gates and I stepped into the mansion, the vampire duchess immediately greeted us before getting down on one knee and lowering her head.
"Your Highness. It's a pleasure to meet you again."
I paused as the vampire whose power I had feared so much was now bending down before the empress we had just collected. And seeing how the vampire isn't very surprised… did she calculate this? Did she know we would try and retrieve her and the horns?
"Rise," A chilling voice muttered from my back. Seeing how she wasn't pulling any suspicious moves and continued to cling to my back, her state wasn't a lie. She may have still calculated this retrieval, but the fact that she was near powerless as of now was something that was clear to see. So, I knew I had to take this chance to see what was really happening.
"Hey, did you send me to that auction to not only pick up my evolutionary material but also this thing? Did you seriously think I would be fine with you manipulating me-"
"I had no clue of her presence. I didn't even know she was alive… and shut your mouth. You're in the presence of a god." The vampire's cold eyes told me everything that I needed to know. Not only was this woman I was carrying more than just an empress, but she was a being that probably surpassed the likes of a demon lord.
"Then, you really got captured?" I slowly set her down, allowing a clean hand off to the vampire, who swiftly pulled her onto her back. The eyes of this empress drew me in with their swirling properties, seemingly hypnotizing me like a large whirlpool dragging my consciousness into its ever-changing and turning waves.
"Yeah… you could say that… but I also let myself get captured… I don't feel like explaining anymore. I would like to rest…" The empress muttered before glancing at the horns which Wu was still carrying in her arms. Wu immediately began to sweat and even gestured to return them to her, but she just rolled her eyes. "Mine will grow back with time. It won't be long… maybe just a few years. You can keep those as a token of my thanks."
She then glanced over at Aisa, who raised an eyebrow. Their eyes connected, conversing with each other before the vampire duchess turned away, leaving Aisa to wave goodbye. The empress, on the other hand, just simply closed her eyes, beginning to rest almost immediately.
"Alright, we all should rest up as well," I muttered before gesturing for Wu to follow me. "And I feel we should talk. I would like to explain myself, and I would like to introduce the real me. I know you, but you don't know me."
Wu followed after, leaving Aisa in a mental ditch as she could easily escape it, but didn't even have the energy to get out. So, in the end, she decided to return to her room and sleep it off. Not only was she exhausted, but she was also a bit injured. She didn't say anything, so I didn't say anything about it, but she should be fine. Her healing properties should be as good as mine since we are the same evolution after all.

(Aisa POV)
My nap was simple. I changed into my nightgown, jumped onto my bed, rolled into my blanket, and then closed my eyes. In my tight cocoon, I faced upwards, making sure I could breathe… but for some reason, this technique that had also worked for me all of a sudden stopped functioning.
I twisted and turned in my bed before unraveling myself from my cocoon and trying to sleep normally, but… "It's too cold in here," I muttered, slowly opening my eyes, only to be met by a glowing pair of black eyes. The woman had long, straight black hair and small nubs where two massive horns would have been poking out from that silky hair of hers.
I froze at the sight of this woman. She had straddled my torso and kept me pressed down against the bed, leaving no room to escape. I was stuck, and due to the intense pressure that she emitted, I barely had time to retaliate.
Bringing my arms up to try and throw her off of me was a stupid move as she immediately caught me by the wrists. Her strength was incredible, even in her weakened state. And since strength wasn't one of my strong suits, I was easily overpowered and had my hands pressed up over my head.
"Huff… huff… huff… huff… W-What do you want?" I asked, seeing her face slowly approach mine. The slight smell of sweet perfume and a tangy soap resonated in my nose, congregating together to notify me that she had either just taken a shower or had a nice warm bath after all of that stress. But that pitiful state of hers didn't excuse the fact that her lips were approaching my face, and her freshly brushed teeth that had been rinsed with some fiery mouthwash stung my eyes.
"W-What are you doing?" I stuttered, turning my head to the side. And it seemed this was a chance the woman was looking for as she suddenly pressed her lips against my pale neck and sunk two large teeth past my skin and deep into my flesh. I squirmed as I felt my endless supply of blood get sucked out like a vacuum. It was painful, but not to the point it would make me scream. In fact, it only got number and number, a wave of pleasure almost traveling down my throat in contrast to my rising blood.
We stayed in that position for a good minute until I was finally released, left in a state of numbness that had traveled throughout my entire body. I couldn't move a single muscle, causing me to panic as the woman lightly smiled with a trail of blood dripping down from her lips. She was crazy. This woman was fucking crazy.
"W-Where the hell is the consent…?" I groaned, but in contrast to my pained appearance, I felt pretty good. "You asshole, get away from me. I don't want you sucking my blood again… I didn't even know you're a vampire… get away."
"Next time, maybe take a shower," The woman muttered, yet she proceeded to lick her lips of the blood that had trickled down her face. It was almost seductive the way she moved and got off of me, and upon seeing her hop off of my torso and back onto the floor, I noticed she was in a nightgown as well. "I've given you my blessing. Now, don't disappoint me."
