11 Who are you?

"I am sorry." She said while caressing his face with so much care and gentleness. She sighed as she was looking at his sleeping face. It was almost three in the afternoon, but Klein was still sleeping soundly. Zehara consumed too much of his energy, and she deeply regretted that. It was a good thing that they both did not have any classes today.

A lone tear escaped on her eyes. Tiredness was written on his face. She bent over him and kissed his forehead as she whispered sweet nothings in his ears. She picked up her clothes, then she sighed once again as she looked at him before she teleported to her room in her castle.

"Welcome back, Madam." Ginea greeted her as soon as she stepped inside her room. She gave her a cup of tea, which she gladly accepted. "Thank you." She said, then she sat on her bed as she sipped on her tea.

"You look uneasy, Madam."

She took a deep breath and looked at Ginea. "I am afraid I took so much energy from Klein but it was not yet enough. I am still longing for him." Her butler's forehead knotted, and confusion was painted on her face.

"But.. but a simple kiss from him, your mate, would be enough to satisfy you, Madam. How could that be?" The same questions had been running on her head since she felt it last night. 'How could that be?'

She finished her tea and gave the cup back to Ginea. "It did not happen before.. this was the first time. Does this mean I am bound to kill him with my own hands. That I am the one who will kill him in this time of his life?" Ginea remained silent. Her gaze turned to her window and she looked outside.

'When will they forgive me?' Her heart tightened and her tears begun to form. The man that was supposed to satisfy her did not sate her hunger. And she was confused why he tasted like her ordinary meal even though he had the energy, the energy that can keep her sanity, the energy that she had waited for so long. She consumed too much yet.. it was not enough.

Her desire these days was becoming stronger. She almost lost her control the last time she fed on a human that had an ordinary energy but now with his mate's energy.. she sighed as she did not know what was happening. She lost control last night, and that resulted in Klein's still sleeping state.

She wiped her tears and took a bath. She needed answers to her question, and staying inside her castle wouldn't help.

She changed into a high waist skirt that reached above her knee, a spaghetti shirt which she covered with a coat, and a pair of flat sandals.

"I am going out, Ginea."

"Take care, Madam."

She stepped outside her castle, then she turned around and looked at it. She has been living there since she was punished. This is her home. Everything that anyone can wish are there.

She looked at the path where those who works in her castle used to get there. It was a very long and bumpy ride, it would take a whole day before they arrived using a car.

"Where to, Zehara?" She asked herself while she was looking around the outside of her castle. A normal person would only see a never-ending forest, but she could see thousands of people wandering around the city.

She wanted to go to Klein's condo unit, but she was afraid that she would not control herself. He was still exhausted from what happened between them last night and being with him is too dangerous right now.

"I wish I knew what was happening.."

She sighed and teleported to her condo. She decided to just stroll around the city. She exited her condo and blended in with the humans. She walked around like she was one of them.

She saw a group of people and she recognized them as the school's art club member. She was about to ignore them, but one of the students saw her.

"Miss Quinn!"

She smiled and waved at them. They all walked towards her.

"Hello, Miss Quinn."

"Hello. Do you have a club meeting outside the school?"

"No, not a club meeting, Miss Quinn. We gathered here to meet our new club adviser."

Her forehead knotted. "What about Miss Pomelo?" She asked. Miss Primae Pomelo is the club adviser of the art club.

"She resigned yesterday. We will have a new adviser starting on Monday and we will going to meet him."

Him? Oh. Finally a man. The faculty of the school was composed of mainly female so it was a good thing that they hire a male now.

"Join us, Miss Quinn."

"Sure. I would like to meet your new adviser too."

The students smiled and they entered a cafe. She followed them, but she stopped when someone passed her. She looked at the woman, and she saw her stopped in her tracks too. 'I guess she sensed me too.'

They were both looking at each other when one of the students called her. She turned her head to them and she smiled apologetically.

"I am sorry, guys. Something came up." She shouted, enough for them to hear. She did not wait for their reply, she looked back to where the woman was just standing, but she saw no one. She looked around, she followed her instinct and walked towards an alley. Her instinct did not fail her. She saw the woman leaning on the wall while looking at her.

"Who are you?"

The woman tilted her head and asked her back the same question. "Who are you?"
