The Conquerors Path

Chapter 316 - The Little Rabbit Has Fallen

"You look better, did something good happen?"

I asked as I patted the head of the cute girl on my lap, Sonia enjoyed each touch as she contently sat on me, her head on my chest while her eyes remained closed taking in my scent she so dearly missed,

"I-I missed you"

A timid yet shy voice was heard, making me smile, my eyes looked towards Sonia, who was now having a blush on her face, her eyes that before seemed to have doubt now looked fulfilled, my plans seemed to have now worked out for the best, the time that I spent away from her, seemed to have helped her figure out the feelings that she now has for me.

Of course, it needed the well-decorated effort of my cute little demon maid, who by her side kept spewing into Sonia what I wanted her to know,

"You missed me?"

I asked with a cheeky grin, making Sonia blush deeper but she didn't shy away from my eyes as she peered deep into mine, we stayed in silence for a minute, our eyes bearing into each other, slowly my right hand moved to hold Sonia's face, she trembled in my embrace for a moment but she didn't push me back.

Slowly she closed her eyes as her face started to move forward, I didn't leave her hanging as I too started to move towards her, a second later our lips met, her sweet scent filled my nose as I got the taste of her lips, the kiss was simple and chaste as we kept our lips locked for a few seconds before which we separated.

Just as we did Sonia's eyes opened, and a shy look took her face but no regret remained, her gaze became hazy while her expression looked cute,

"Does this mean you like me now?"

I asked with a smile, happiness ringing deep within my tone, making Sonia understand that I was happy beyond words, this seemed to have worked well, as a beautiful smile that leave fairies down graced upon Sonia,

"Yes, in truth at first I was confused"
Sonia spoke her head now leaning into my chest while happiness danced deep within her eyes,

"After what happened with Leonardo, my feelings were in shambles, I am sure that I would have ended up for worse if you weren't by my side"

Saying so Sonia lifted her head for a moment placing a kiss on my cheeks before descending back into my chest,

"All my life, I ran behind Leonardo, his fight for saving me had taken my heart but it would seem that whatever I saw in him was false, I tried and tried again, hoping that he would notice me, thinking that he was just too dense to see it but..."

Reaching these parts Sonia's voice turned quiet, I didn't push her as I patted her back, helping her regain herself, what I did was throw years of Sonia's desire drown the drain, most would have broken with just that much,

"But.....the truth was that I was blind, I was chasing after a man, who was not worthy of me, I was blinded by love that I didn't even see that person who liked me was chasing after me"

Reaching this point Sonia sat up straight, her legs rearranged themselves as they wrapped around me since we were sitting on a sofa it wasn't a problem, her eyes now kept looking at me, not missing a beat, her arms now wrapped around my neck,

"All my life I just wanted to have a happy family, I never knew my mother, hence all I ever wanted was to complete a loving family that's when everyone in this world slowly started to break away from me but you stood by my side, that was all that I ever dreamed..."

As her words were heard, her hands now held my face,

"Having the love of someone who would be with me through everything that's all I ever wanted and you were there, you kindly watched and protected me and in my lowest moment you were there with me, being my strength"

Now Sonia's eyes looked deeper and darker, a looming loving yet psychotic look took her face, it would seem that she didn't come out unscathed from the encounter, a deep yet heavy look of love now shined on Sonia,

"I don't care how many women you love, just as long as you promise to keep me beside you I will be happy"

Sonia spoke, her voice now containing a deeper effect, I didn't flinch at this new 'love' of hers, I have already dealt with too many of them to be scared anymore.

A loving smile came up my face, while I caught Sonia's hands with mine, I started to speak with the same seriousness as Sonia,

"I promise you that I will never let you go, now and forever I will cherish you, no matter how many women come my way, you will always have a place in my heart"

My words seemed to have done their work, as Sonia's smile widened, seemingly happy with my words,

"Then all I have to say is that....

I love you"

As soon as she said so her eyes turned red, the mana of humongous rates started to sweep into her body, a red color mana started to cover the whole area we were in, by now just Sonia was knocked out cold, her body started to shine with a gentle light, making changes to her.

The color of her skin was becoming pale, her hair soon changed its color to blonde, and I am sure that her eyes must also be turning to red, slowly her body was lifted from me, while she started to float in the room, her body was undergoing a change in a humongous manner, she was finally going to become a...

Half-Vampire

Someone who will be able to grasp the powers of both the human and the vampire side, the best thing would be that she would be eternally loyal to me too, that's the specialty of her vampire side, her strength will increase and so will her talent, once she wakes up all those that bullied her will tremble in fear.

In the game Sonia was the easiest target, the way for her vampire side to awaken is for Sonia to confess her love and get that love reciprocated, then she will awaken her vampire side, making it such that she will be able to walk beside Leonardo,

'All the feelings she had have disappeared'

When Sonia spoke of Leonardo her voice was neutral, no love or hate, which would mean that from now onwards he's nothing to her, this wouldn't have been easy but thanks to Clara who kept pushing and whispering things into Sonia all went well,

"I can't wait to see you when you wake up"

I said with a smile, thankfully I had already set up a barrier, hence no one will no what's going to happen in here, with this one more is in my hand, just like Clara I will have another helper but unlike her, I can't show my 'true' self to Sonia, that might only hurt me in the long run, I would just have to manipulate her into it, without her realizing what she was doing,

"Wake up soon my little vampire, we have a lot to do"
