I alone am the Honoured One!

"I... want to see the tattoo on your crotch."

Huh? Hearing this Velnorah's eyes narrowed as she looked at him suspiciously "Why do you want to see it?"

He hesitated for a moment as he tried to come up with a plausible answer. "Well, uh… I've been thinking a lot about you, and… I had this, uh… weird dream about that tattoo… so I…"

Velnorah tilted her head, her monochrome hair cascading over her shoulder as she leaned forward slightly. "A weird dream about me?"

-_- Zhao Tian smiled awkwardly, realizing how ridiculous his explanation sounded.

His lips twitched as if he wanted to say more, but no words came out.

Seeing him like this, Velnorah couldn't help but burst into laughter "Pfft, haha..."

"Hahaha..." She wrapped her arms around her waist as she doubled over slightly, her body shaking with laughter.

When she finally calmed down, she straightened up and with a grin, she leaned closer, her face inches from his. "Why are you saying lies and excuses, hmm?"

She raised her hand, her fingers brushing his lips "If you want to see me naked, just say it..."

Naked?

She pinched his lower lip pulling it, "Say it... say, 'Darling, strip.' I am your wife... don't forget that."

With a chuckle, Zhao Tian spoke "Darling, strip..."

A spark of delight flashed in Velnorah's eyes as she heard the words. "As you say, my dear husband…" she purred, her hands slowly reaching up to her neckline.

Her movements were slow, as her fingers worked the clasps of her robe.

The fabric loosened, slipping off her shoulders to reveal the smooth, pale expanse of her skin.

Her hair tumbled over her shoulders, framing her elegant neck and collarbones.

She took a step back, her hips swaying slightly as she slid the robe lower, exposing more of herself.

Her robe, along with her undergarments, fell to the floor, pooling around her feet, leaving her standing in nothing but the intricate tattoo etched across her lower abdomen and hips.

"Well?" she asked, placing a hand on her hip and raising an eyebrow.

"Is this what you wanted to see, my dear husband?"

Zhao Tian stepped forward, his hand reaching out to lightly trace the tattoo's edges.

His gaze narrowed in thought 'They look very similar...'

Velnorah grasped his wrist and brought it even lower, reaching her vagina "You can touch here too..."

With a gentle shake of his head, he looked into her eyes "Velnorah... I want to ask you something."

Hm? Seeing his serious face, she was quite confused "What is it? You want to have sex with me?"

Zhao Tian sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Why is that your first response?"

With a chuckle, she replied "Then what else is it?"

Gently hugging her waist, he muttered "Velnorah, listen to me... this is serious."

Velnorah wrapped her arms around his neck lazily and smiled "Oh, then tell me..."

"Are... you a vampire?"

A faint silence fell...

Huh? Velnorah's smile faltered and her heartbeat quickened hearing his words. "V-Vampire?" she stammered, trying to regain her composure.

Her eyes darted around in nervousness and Zhao Tain could feel her hands around his neck trembling.

As she looked into his eyes, she realized he is not just suspicious, and had already confirmed that she is a vampire.

Zhao Tian gently caressed her cheek "Velnorah... its okay, just tell me; I won't be mad.."

Velnorah's gaze lowered and Zhao Tian didn't push her as he gave her the time to reply..

A few moments later, she looked at him and muttered in a low voice "Yeah, I am..."

Zhao Tian gave a nod and a tense silence filled the room.

The silence stretched on, and Velnorah began to fidget, her fingers clutching at his robe as guilt and shame overwhelmed her.

She couldn't bear the thought of him hating her, of him looking at her with disgust.

She was even scared to look into his eyes and lowered her gaze.

Holding her in his arms, he asked "You infiltrated the sect for vampires?"

With her gaze still lowered, she gave a reluctant nod "Hmm..."

Instead of reacting with anger, Zhao Tian gently raised his hand and patted her head.

The unexpected gesture made her body jolt in surprise and her eyes wideneed as she looked up at him briefly before glancing away again.

"Is Velnorah your real name?" he asked softly, his fingers threading through her hair.

She hesitated for a moment before nodding. "It is… Velnorah Di Gardia."

"I see..."

As he continued patting her head, her body twitched and her grip on his robes tightened.

Letting out a soft sigh, Zhao Tian tilted his head down to meet her eyes. "Are they going to attack the sect?" he asked gently.

"Hmm.." A soft mumble escaped her lips.

Zhao Tian's brows furrowed and he didn't push her to speak, giving her time to gather her thoughts.

After a moment, he asked, "Is it for the Brynnhilder?"

Her body froze at the mention of the name.

A heavy silence fell between them as she lowered her head even further, her grayish-white hair hiding her expression.

Finally, she gave another reluctant nod. "Hmm…"

Hearing this, Zhao Tian's eyes squinted and he raised his hand, gently squeezing her breast as his fingers twirled her nipple.

"You let the evil spirit masters join your wing... Are the vampires allied with the Coven of Black Hearts?"

Huh? Velnorah gasped in surprise as Zhao Tian knew a lot more than she expected.

She again gave a nod "Hmm."

He leaned forward, pressing a kiss to her forehead "Do you know when they will attack..."

She shook her head, indicating she doesn't.

"Hmm.. in the past years, you collected information and told them about the complete structure of the Sect, the protective barriers, the way to the inner vault, and the traps."

Velnorah nodded her head obediently. "Hmm..."

Gently caressing her cheek, he asked "This face I fell in love with... is this your real face or..."

Her eyes quivered and she nodded her head "My real face..."
