Chapter 29: The arrogant Princess and her conflicted mind
The beautiful white-haired woman with green eyes took a pile of paper from her desk and began to read them one by one.
"Some reports about the R-Empire and USA-Federation questioning the legitimacy of our new anti-supernatural weapon tests, more requests to join the Scarlet group through different channels, and... another letter from that annoying young male from the Faust family." Wilhemina finished.
Selene's expression immediately soured at the mention of the Faust Clan.
"What does the young master of the Faust clan want this time?" Selene asked in an annoyed tone.
Wilhelmina flipped through the letter and began to read the text.
"He wants a meeting with you, and he's offering 2,000.000 dollars as a donation to the Scarlet group if you accept his request," Wilhemina said.
Selene clicked her tongue.
"No thanks, burn the letter--"
"—Also, he is protesting your use of an illegal squire, claiming that the duel is invalid, and he wants an apology from the 'filthy beast' that killed his squire for no reason." Wilhelmina interrupted.
Selene frowned and pondered for a moment before replying.
"What is he talking about? Nikolai was a freshly awakened squire, yet this moron is really going to make this argument?" Selene muttered.
"The boy's family may be simply making an excuse to get a meeting with you," Wilhelmina said.
"I don't care; we have no obligation to reply to such a farce of a complaint."
"However... Princess, it might lead to another fight and that Nikolai boy might suffer..."
"Hmph, let him," Selene replied.
Wilhelmina looked at Selene and frowned.
"Princess, what has got into you? This is the first time you have been so heartless. After the first battle and the fight against Sebastian, you were almost in tears with regret." Wilhelmina questioned.
"This is different, Wilhelmina. I had not realised the truth, but now I have awakened. That man is no good. He is no good!" Her erratic words couldn't match her thoughts as she remembered the unbearable taste, scent and feel of his touch, trying to convince herself it was because she was weak from the new moon and not that she wanted to have him drink her dry!
"Whatever you say, Princess," Wilhelmina said, looking at her with a curious gaze, wondering what happened during those two days.
"Besides, you are right... Nikolai is a valuable asset, and I won't throw him away for the likes of a Faust."
"So you will meet them. Why are you being so confusing, Princess?"
Selene looked at the letter in her hand.
"I will go and see this young master of the Fausts. Be sure to let Nikolai know, that he has additional work. Arrange the meeting in three days. I won't rush for a mere Faust Clan heir."
Wilhelmina was speechless; she wanted to say something, but Selene had already decided. Because there would be a lot of work ahead for her in the next three days, Wilhelmina turned to leave when Selene's soft voice echoed, causing her eyes to open in shock.
"Ah... wait... Wilhelmina... I want to ask something.... when you feed on your husband... and he feeds on you...
how does it feel?" She asked with a flushed face, her eyes trembling.
"W-What are you asking, Princess?!" Wilhelmina's face became flushed red.
"I-It's just an example! I'm not saying to describe when you both do that kind of thing!" Selene replied with a flustered appearance.
"Phew! Princess. Why do you ask?"
"It's just that... I am curious what it's like to drink each other's blood at the same time."
Wilhelmina was speechless for a moment, then nodded.
"Hmm, well, it does feel good, Princess," Wilhelmina replied.
"Is that so..."
"Yes, it does feel quite pleasant. However, it is nothing special. I would say it's like the feeling of someone stroking your hair or hugging you tightly as you fill with warmth."
"Hmm, I see... Thanks, Wilhelmina."
Wilhelmina, although surprised, nodded and left the room.
On the other hand, Selene sat in her seat, staring at the letter in her hand before shaking her head and burning it.
'Then why... why did it feel so amazing for me? My entire body felt liberated, my heart filled with fulfilment and I...'
She bit her lower lip and hit the desk several times as she felt frustrated to have reached a pleasant climax just from the moment he bit her neck... let alone the waves that overwhelmed her after he began to devour her blood like a monster.
"Stupid, stupid, stupid Nikolai!" She yelled, her cheeks flushed.
While she complained about her disobedient squire, the phone began to ring. Her eyes snapped out of her strange mood as she coughed, adjusting herself to answer the call.
"Hello, Scarlet Group's CEO, Selene Tepes speaking."
"Greetings, Miss Tepes, this is the Scarlet Univeristies Dean." The voice of an elderly man came from the other side of the line.
"Professor, is something the matter?" Selene asked.
"Nothing important, Miss Tepes. I just wanted to notify you that your younger sister caused a minor issue, and I wonder if you could come in and help settle the matter. The other side wants reparations. However, the academy would rather keep things under wraps."
"What? What did Anya do?"
"Nothing serious, just a fight, some injuries and a small fire, that's all."
"That's all? Fine, I'll take care of the matter." Selene sighed.
"Good, I will be expecting you then."
The call ended, and Selene immediately called her driver and got in her car. She watched the passing scenery while feeling annoyed that Nikolai really didn't seem to bother with coming to the office... 'Even though I said he only needed to come to fights... Couldn't he come to work, then I can make him do these annoying tasks!'
"Where to, Miss Selene?"
"Wait... forget it, I have someone else who can take care of this for me..."
[To Nikolai (Perverted-Molesting Werewolf!)]
—I have a task for you; the pay is $50,000, and all it requires is for you to head to Scarlet University and meet with the dean and help clear my sister out of trouble. Then, make sure my sister doesn't get into any trouble until the evening. I will pick her up at 10:00 pm. Make sure you send your location to me, or else!
Selene.

'Phew... now I can relax and take it easy. That boy only seems to work for cash. Since he wants it so bad, then he can deal with my menace of a sister!'
"Hahahahahah! I feel so good. What is this feeling of delight?!"
Meanwhile, the driver just looked at the strange sight of his master, closing the window once she began to laugh hysterically.
