night.

The light inside the castle is dim.

Although it does not hinder vision, ordinary people living here for a long time will definitely feel a little depressed in their hearts.

This light red, soft and non-glare light is one of the light sources commonly used by blood races.

The special physique of the blood race is doomed that even if they can resist the sun, they will not like to walk in the sun.

Brightness has never been something that blood races are willing to approach.

Lax walked out of the guest room on the first floor, and looked around. Seeing that he didn't find the person he was looking for, he couldn't help but look at Esther who had just entered the castle.

"Where's Iseus?"

Seeing that it was Yi Xiu who ordered the guest to stay in the castle for a while, Esther waved and closed the door, and said in a gentle voice, "Your Highness should be in the bathroom at this time."

bathroom?

Lester's eyes lighted up slightly.

"Well, I'm going to take a bath later, I don't know where the bathroom is?" Lester's tone was calm, and he seemed much gentler.

Esther had no doubts at all, and said: "It's the one at the end of the room you live in, Mr. Laces, then I'll get you some toiletries that you'll need later."

The corners of Lai Kesi's lips curled up slightly, and he looked quite happy. He turned his head and walked towards his room, and said in a low voice as he walked, "No, I'll just use Iseus's. You should go back early, don't Go out and hang around. I don't like being disturbed."

He stared blankly at Lai Kesi walking faster and faster, and finally disappeared.Esther was a little puzzled, is the relationship between His Highness and Mr. Laces so close?

Even toiletries can be shared?

Esther couldn't help but think of the scene when Iseus called him to the study two days ago.

Three days ago, the study.

"His Royal Highness."

Esther pushed open the study door, and saw Iseus leaning on the chair, his eyes drifting, and he didn't know what to think.

Yi Xiu came back to his senses, fixed his eyes on Esther, and said in a calm tone, "Go and tidy up a guest room for the guy who came just now."

Esther said: "Yes, I will tidy up the guest room on the second floor later, Your Highness, do you have anything else to prepare for that guest?"

Yi Xiu's eyes changed slightly, and after a while, he said in a cold voice: "Just clean up any empty room on the first floor. Remember, you don't need to prepare anything for him. He doesn't need it."

Esther: "Yes."

Este turned to leave, but Yi Xiu called him again, and said in a deep voice: "That guy is out of his mind, you usually stay away from him, and those who work in the castle, don't let them come recently."

Esther: "Yes." Your Highness, is it not good for you to belittle your guests like this?

The memory ends.

Esther looked somewhere on the first floor, then turned and went back to her room.

Sure enough, it's better not to meddle in His Highness's private affairs.

At this time, in the bathroom on the first floor.

A faint white mist lingers in the small room. Even with the lights on, the bathroom is still dim, and it looks even more hazy against the mist.

Yi Xiu closed his eyes, with his arms resting on the edge of the basin, and his half-length silver hair obediently stuck to his cheeks.

In the room, apart from the clear and shallow breathing, there was the quiet sound of needles dropping.

squeak~

The door was pushed open gently.

Lyce's footsteps softly entered the bathroom.

Because they have not been exposed to the sun all year round, the skin of the blood race is extremely fair, and even the blue blood vessels on their necks are clearly visible.

Lyce walked to Yi Xiu's side without making a sound, his dark red eyes darkened by two points.

The fragrance from Yi Xiu's body constantly stimulated his sense of smell. If he hadn't been sane, he couldn't help but bite the blue blood vessel reflected in his eyes, and suck the sweet blood flowing in the blood vessel.

From the first time he saw Yi Xiu, he couldn't help wanting to get close to him. His blood was an irresistible temptation for him.

At every moment, he was thinking about pulling people under him, tasting the blood that made him almost crazy and suffocated.

He always thought that what he desires and wants the most is powerful power.

Therefore, thousands of years ago, he bit the blood emperor's neck fiercely and obtained everything that countless people could not ask for.

Immortality, power, supremacy.

But his heart was not satisfied and kept clamoring.

"Not enough, not enough, not enough!"

He didn't know what else he wanted.All he knew was that in his eyes, the world seemed to be only black and white.Like two turbulent rivers constantly flowing, people on the river kept coming and going from the bridge, but there was still no existence that could fill the emptiness in his heart.

Until one day, the thirteen princes with high blood status, except the seventh prince Isius who was still traveling in the east, joined forces to overthrow him.

For the first time, he felt his heart skip a beat.

At that time, according to his intuition, he severely injured the twelve wastes, and then left the blood race, sleeping for thousands of years.

He had a hunch that when he woke up again, the person he was waiting for would definitely appear.

Sure enough, 3000 years later, when he met Iseus in that bar, his heart, which had never been beating since becoming a blood race, trembled violently.

Every cell in the whole body is screaming crazily: It's him, it's him.

God knows how he held back his desire, suppressed the instinct to throw people down, and then ruthlessly stabbed his fangs into Iseus' neck.

After chatting with Iseus, he was annoyed that he hadn't thought of going to him in the first place, wasting thousands of years in vain.At the same time, he couldn't help but think, this person's temper really suits his taste, which makes him more and more unable to let it go.

He did not deny that he was greedy for the blood of Isius, wishing to tear him apart and swallow him.But on the contrary, he was unwilling to hurt him in the slightest. What he wanted more was Isius standing beside him alive, rather than a cold corpse.

So, when he couldn't suppress himself, he fled, far away.

But in just three days, he realized that he was so wrong. He couldn't leave Isius at all. He could resist not hurting him, but he couldn't not get close to him.

So, he appeared in front of Iseus again, and did not intend to leave.

Yi Xiu slowly opened his eyes, and at the same time reached out to push the hair sticking to his face behind his ears.

He just had a dream. In the dream, a pair of dark red eyes were staring at him closely. Wherever he went, he couldn't escape those eyes.

From those eyes, he saw obsession, madness, and more intense love.

"Baby, can you fall asleep after taking a bath? Are you too tired, do you want me to give you a full body massage?"

Just when Yi Xiu slightly raised his body and was about to get up from the water, a frivolous and hoarse voice sounded from behind.

Yi Xiu's body froze, his eyes were a little surprised, and more of annoyed, he didn't turn his head, and said in a hoarse voice: "When... did you come here?"
