"Young Master, do you like the vampire?" Gideon asked as he was following behind the young master.

They were now walking back to the third mountain after resolving most of the things that they missed.

However, Gideon's question made Pier stop in his tracks for a moment.

"I don't know," He responded as he continued to walk again.

Gideon had seen the vampire affectionately cling to his master when they met.

"Why'd you ask?" Pier returned a question to his knight.

"I am simply curious of my master's love affairs," He spoke with a playful tone and Pier found the necessity to roll his eyes at his knight.

"I still have many things to do before I can focus on such things, Gideon," He sighed when they reached the path that Pier remembered he walked on before he got lost in the fourth mountain and found the giant bear monster.

"But can you describe the type of person that would surely catch your attention, young master?" Gideon asked as he slashed a few tree branches that were blocking their path.

Pier was fascinated with how comfortable Gideon immediately became with him that they were now talking about his personal love life.

"Someone smart"

"I guess I'm already out of the question," Gideon laughed as he now saw a clear path that led to a hill.

"Idiot," he replied as he also saw the hill that he had escaped from. He felt a wave of relief slightly get on his nerves after knowing that he was back on the third mountain where he did not have to worry about a giant bear monster chasing after his life.

"Can I inquire further about my master's preferences?" Gideon continued to ask and Pier had to breathe out another sigh.

"Someone-"

"Someone who's not a knight."

Eek!

He flinched when a voice spoke beside him.

Gideon glared at the person who came out of the darkness.

"Pier, let's talk," Ciaran spoke as he directly stared at the young master's eyes.

Pier also stared back at the green-eyed man who was towering him and Gideon.

Ciaran was now wearing clothes and he had changed his cloak into one that fits him perfectly.

Pier's cloak that he wore after shifting back into his human form was too small to cover his entire body and Pier was glad that Ciaran did change back into his normal clothes.

He stared at Gideon and the knight had a worried look on his face.

"Young master-"

"It's alright, Gideon. He's with me, I won't get into trouble. I'll be back after an hour," Pier spoke and Gideon wasn't convinced with his master's statements.

They have just been reunited now and they would get separated again?

He once more stared at Ciaran as he clutched his sword tighter and his eyes bore holes in the Vampire Prince's head.

But Ciaran did not even spare the knight a glance as he was solely focused on the white-haired noble who was wearing a red cape.

"I'll come back. You won't lose your home again," and with the statements, the crease on Gideon's forehead disappeared at the mention of his home.

His master was his home now and he did not want to be far away from the person who gives him the assurance that he needed.

"Alright..." His hold on his sword became loose.

"Ciaran," the Vampire Prince and Alpha Wolf immediately understood what the young master implied as he flicked his hand and a shadow emerged beside Gideon.

"The shadow will lead you back to the place where you can wait for me," Pier explained and Gideon gave the stranger who was intently looking at Pier one last glare before his worried look grazed over his master.

"Please come back immediately," He softly spoke.

Pier nodded his head as he looked back at Ciaran and his clear blue eyes met the vibrant and viridescent ones again.

Sigh

"Lead the way, your highness," He spoke and Gideon's eyes widened when he heard Pier call the stranger 'your highness'.

"Young master, wha-" but before he could do so, black smoke started to rise from the tall man's feet and it surrounded both him and his master.

Immediately after the smoke fully consumed the two of them, his master and the stranger both disappeared from where they had just been standing.

---

Thud!

The objects hanging at the almost bare wall clattered at the impact of something hitting it.

"Ciara- hmpf"

Pier tried to call the vampire prince's name but his mouth was immediately shut with Ciaran's own.

The green-eyed man's hand then found its way around the young master's waist as he pulled Pier closer to him.

His head tilted to the side while he deepened the kiss.

Pier pushed the vampire off as he was surprised by the sudden action.

"Hah... Ciaran! What's wrong-" but before he could go back again in nagging the vampire prince, Ciaran did not hesitate to close the distance between them again.

Ciaran's hands started to go up and down Pier's back as if he was caressing the young master's back.

"I'm so frustrated," Ciaran spoke with anger laced in his voice as he separated his lips from the young master's.

"Wha- why?!" Pier asked as he positioned his arms on the front of Ciaran's shoulders to create a distance between them.

"You're asking me that after everything that happened back at the fourth mountain?" He whispered as his own hands removed Pier's hands from stopping him to remove the distance between their faces.

This time, he buried his face on the young master's neck and the scent that he had loved from the first time he took an inhale of it entered his nose.

"C-Ciaran, what's wrong... ah-" Pier voiced out after the vampire prince bit on the sensitive skin.

The vampire prince's nose trailed Pier's neck as he kissed every spot that he could reach.

"I could just never take my eyes off you for a second now, can I?"

He asked as his eyes hungrily scanned the young master's face.

Pier was breathing hard after Ciaran had unexpectedly kissed him once they arrived at his house on the second mountain.

His face was flushed despite the cold environment and his chest continued to go up and down in a rapid motion.

"I'm so mad..." Ciaran spoke as he held Pier's cheeks in both of his hands and he caressed the smooth skin.

"I'm so mad at myself because I wasn't there for you when you needed me," He spoke as his face started to inch closer again.

"I did not know what I should do as you created some miracles outside," He whispered when their lips were only breaths apart.

"M-Miracles?" Pier asked as he was slightly in a daze.

"Yeah, just like you," Ciaran spoke as he delved in back into the sweet and luscious lips Pier possessed.

Ciaran expertly dominated the kiss as his tongue snaked its way inside the young master's mouth and the two shared a passionate kiss.

"I'm so frustrated about everything that happened that I did not know how to show you my apologies," A string of saliva was made when they both departed from each other.

Ciaran's eyes were glowing but it was not a red glow. This time, his eyes emitted a golden glow as he observed the beautiful person in front of him.

Pier's knees were weak after their kiss and he had to hold on to Ciaran's shoulders for support.

The vampire prince lifted Pier further into the wall and he made sure that Pier's legs were snaked into his waist.

Kiss

"I like you so much that I'm afraid I would lose you any time you're not in my sight," He spoke as he kissed Pier's forehead.

Kiss

"I like you so much that I could not bear to be separated with you even for a moment," He uttered again and this time, he kissed Pier's nose.

Kiss~

"I like you so much that just knowing you're in danger makes my heart race in anxiousness," This time, he whispered the words as he went back into kissing Pier's lips.

'What's wrong with him?' Pier thought in his mind but he could not voice out.

It was as if his throat became dry all of a sudden and all he could do was cling to the man who was pinning him on the wall.

He opened his eyes and he saw that Ciaran's own eyes were closed as he enjoyed the kiss between them.

His hand found its way on the older man's hair and he started to pull on Ciaran's hair.

He watched Ciaran's expression while they were in a passionate kiss.

He could feel Ciaran's frustration with every movement that the vampire prince was doing.

He pulled on Ciaran's hair as he separated himself from the kiss.

"Haaah..." He breathed in hard and he saw the glow on Ciaran's eyes again.

"I thought we were going to talk... haah..." He spoke breathlessly and Ciaran bowed his head.

He was thinking about something and Pier had a hunch on what it was.

"I wanted to talk with you but I could not resist it... I'm sorry," he spoke as he bowed his head.

'This idiot is so unpredictable' Pier thought as he watched the vampire prince with observant eyes.

'One moment he's all aggressive and dominant then another moment he's all apologetic' His train of thoughts about the man continued.

He knew that he must have caused so much stress and panic over the man because of what happened and right now, he was thinking that Ciaran was probably blaming himself for everything that happened.

'Is he that type....?' Pier asked himself.

He had read too many romance novels that he had probably seen all types of male leads.

He was questioning himself if Ciaran was the type who gets all worked up when frustrated.

"Pft"

He laughed as he lifted Ciaran by pulling on the man's hair. He was starting to develop a habit of pulling on the green-eyed man's hair because of how soft it was.

"Are you so frustrated that you don't know what to do?" He asked and Ciaran nodded his head as he admitted to his real feelings.

He did not know what to do especially after the scene that he had witnessed.

He knew that no normal creature could survive the display of power Pier did back at the fourth mountain and he was even more frustrated at the thought that Pier might also be included in the repercussions of his magic.

All he could do was show his affections as a means of assurance that it was still Pier who was by his side.

"Ciaran, look at me." And he did. His eyes stared at the young master's face and he gulped once more when he saw the swollen lips that he had just been lapping on to like a mad man.

"It was my fault, it was due to my hardheadedness that all of those happened, you do not have to blame yourself."

Ciaran's emotions were starting to overflow as he constantly heard the young master's words.

How can he not feel defeated and frustrated when the threat of him losing the person he truly liked was constantly present?

How can he not feel that way when every time he takes his eyes away from the young master there was a possibility of him losing Pier?

He knew that the time would come they have to separate and get back on their lives before they met but before that happened, he wanted to protect Pier with all that he had.

He wanted to assure that the young master was safe

From his fellow vampires

From the monsters

From anything that would threaten Pier's safety.

"I know you feel bad but take it easy," Pier spoke as his other hand caressed Ciaran's face.

The older man gave him a look of defeat and that made Pier's heart clench at the pitiful sight.

Kiss~

He kissed Ciaran's forehead, nose, and lips.

"Please be assured that nothing bad that will kill me would occur," Pier promised as he opened his mouth to meet with Ciaran again.

The older man closed his eyes as he met with the young master's soft lips again.

This time, it was not aggressive.

It was not hurried.

They were both taking part in the kiss willingly.

"Go to the bed," Pier ordered and Ciaran happily obliged as he carried Pier in his arms and headed straight to the bed that they both used to share with before the start of their mission in the succeeding mountains.

Of course, Pier was already twenty-three back in his life.

He was not innocent with things like this and he was also someone who had constant urges.

'Come to think of it ever since I came here...' his thoughts trailed off.

Creak~

The wooden bed creaked when both of their weights were rested on top of it.

Pier laid at the soft and comfortable mattress that was covered in soft white sheets.

Darkness was evident around them but the faint glow of moonlight aided their eyes.

He watched as Ciaran's head started to lower down again on him.

The young master's lips met with the Vampire Prince's again as they started to make out once more.

Ciaran's body was properly weighing him down and Pier could not lie when he felt the hard thing that was rubbing on his leg.

His memory drifted back when Ciaran's naked body was displayed in front of him after he transformed back into his human form.

'I wanted to properly observe his wolf form...' He thought for a moment but soon flinched when the man on top of him started grinding his manhood on his legs.

'Fuck, I don't want to do it all the way,' He cursed in his mind.

Rub~

Rub~

Rub~

Ciaran's breath was rugged as pleasure coursed through his body from rubbing his manhood at Pier's legs.

He opened his eyes to observe Pier and when he did, their eyes met.

"Ciaran, I can't do it all the way with you," He spoke with finality and Ciaran bowed his head.

He crossed the line again.

He broke his promise of not forcing and upsetting Pier.

"Why are you looking like a lost puppy again?" Pier asked which made the green-eyed man look up at him.

"I'm so-"

He was about to apologize for his actions when Pier covered his mouth.

"I said I wouldn't go all the way but we can find some alternatives," Pier spoke and Ciaran's eyes widened.

His cheeks started to burn when he thought about what the young master had meant.

"Let's switch positions," Pier spoke as he pushed Ciaran on his chest which made the man stumble for a moment but he soon laid down on the bed with his upper body leaning against the wall.

Pier sat on his lap and he did not have the time to process things.

He only found Pier's lips attached to his.

The Vampire Prince's hands immediately found their way around Pier's waist and he started to massage Pier's bottom.

"A-Ahh... Ci-Ciaran," Pier moaned in his ear at the pleasure the larger man's hands had brought him.

Pier started to lick Ciaran's lips while the other man was busy fondling his bottom.

"I told you... ah... I could not go all the way... hngghh... why are you touching there," He spoke between sounds of pleasure and Ciaran immediately released his hands.

"I-I'm sorry..." He apologized and Pier sighed.

He was tired but he wanted to console the frustrated prince.

He held Ciaran's shoulders as he properly sat on the man's thighs.

He stared at Ciaran's vibrant green eyes as one of his hands started to trail down from the man's shoulders.

Lower

Lower

Until it reached Ciaran's hard chest.

Lower

Lower

Until he felt the strong and well-defined stomach.

Lower

Lower

Until he reached the bulging thing on top of the pants Ciaran was wearing.

He caressed the green-eyed man's manhood with his eyes which caused waves of pleasure to rush in Ciaran's body.

He bit his lips as the pleasure of Pier's hands caressing his manhood with only the clothes separating them came into his mind.

"A-Ah Pier..." he groaned as he brought Pier's shoulders closer into his lips and he bit the sensitive neck.

"Don't leave a mark," Pier instructed and Ciaran nodded his head.

"You're really big," Pier whispered into his ear as he started to remove the clothes that were covering Ciaran's nakedness.

The green-eyed man could only pant as if he was in a rut with the pleasure and excitement he was feeling.

The huge thing that is hidden under the clothes exposed itself to the world.

"Wow" Pier spoke in admiration as Ciaran's manhood was displayed.

Hngggh~

The vampire prince groaned again as Pier's cold hands touched the head of his shaft.

"Pier..." He breathed hard as he lifted Pier's jaw and kissed the young master.

They both shared a passionate kiss as Pier's fingers enclosed on the shaft and started to go up and down on it.

Ciaran's tongue asked for entrance on the young master's lips and Pier gladly granted him access.

However, before even Ciaran could fully taste Pier's lips again, the young master separated himself from the man.

"Do mine too," He whispered and Ciaran swore he heard his heart beat loudly in his ear.

"C-Can I?" He asked in hesitation and Pier did not bother verbally responding to him.

He simply nodded his head as he was also aroused.

Ciaran's hands fiddled with the young master's lower clothes until Pier's own thing displayed itself in front of Ciaran's eyes.

The Vampire Prince and Alpha wolf had to gulp multiple times as he stared at the beautiful and enticing manhood Pier possessed.

Pier adjusted himself on top of Ciaran's thighs and made sure that their shafts were together. His hands wrapped around their manhoods but it wasn't enough.

Ciaran and his combined was something that his hands could not properly enclose with.

"Wrap your hand around it too," He ordered and Ciaran gladly obliged.

Both of their hands started to go up and down their shafts and pleasure coursed through their veins.

"Haaah" they breathed at the same time.

Pier lifted his head when Ciaran's free hand raised his chin and they both kissed.

Breaths filled the dark room of the Vampire Prince as they both pleasured themselves until their needs were satiated.
