Daiki's Shock! Nikolai's Despair!

Nikolai used all the tricks possible in his mind to soothe Nikita. Now, he would have to take her on a date twice within the next ten days. He also needed to join her when she went 'hunting' next and couldn't say now. 

The real challenge is that she's planning to go hunting with her mother! Her mother, who is both stunning and intimidating!' 

A memory from the past resurfaced: a visit to Nikita's home. It was a dreadful reminder of how terrifying a girl's parents could be. The experience had left an everlasting impression, instilling a deep aversion to swords and weapons that still lingered to this day. 

'To make a young boy of nine years old train with a real sword, even now, it makes me feel an aversion to swords and weapons.'

Meanwhile, during the time, Nikolai soothed Nikita. Daiki began to take Wilhelmina around in private, speaking between tables and offering his introductions. This made Nikolai have some respect for him.

That although Daiki held prejudice towards him, at least he kept his word.

However, somehow, Nikolai felt he would change the moment he reached table [4] as he was currently dealing with [3], and they seemed to be less positive than the others.

"So pretentious, as if someone like you met our boss."

"Miyuki, don't be like that—our classmate is trying to help at least..."

However, Daiki and Mari didn't seem to know that Miyuki had worked with Wilhelmina frequently and even met Selene twice because of her work and was in the process of joining their head office as Selene had hunted her.

"Lady Miyuki, it's a pleasure to see you in such an odd place. The young lady felt overjoyed that you accepted our offer to join her dedicated team for business planning and events."

"Miss Wilhelmina, the pleasure was mine. You took our family from a low-level company that pushed itself to a medium size and allowed us to become comfortable enough to support a franchise. All of it is thanks to the lady and yourself!"

Daiki's face became sour because he knew his father worked for the Scarlet group longer than Miyuki. 

'So then how, why is this midget with no breasts getting offered a job in the main company with the goddess of business?!'

"Fufu, you are just as cute in private. I am glad you don't change after a few drinks, little Miyuki. I will make sure to take care of you in the office." Wilhelmina winked at the lovely woman, who blushed because of how suggesting it sounded.

"Wilhelmina..."

The maid who served the princess of vampires was extremely talented. She knew when to step in and when to pull out of a conversation. As she turned her gaze to the others at the table, there was no spite or dislike in her gaze, posture, or tone.

"If I am not mistaken, you are a good friend of Miyuki's. Mister Haruto Suzuki and Miss Aiko Nakamura?"

Nikolai watched as Wilhelmina seemed to have stolen many of the talented or willing workers from Daiki and he didn't even realise it. She observed their actions, tone and how they answered and of the ten he introduced. 

Four seemed to have entered her shortlist.

'She's talented and I can see how much she values Selene just from how much effort she gives to this kind of dull role.'

[True, Wilhelmina was a good girl in the past too]

'Hmm?'

However, before Eliza could respond...

Daiki finally brought Wilhelmina to his table, and the gaze of friendliness and goodwill vanished from his face as he introduced Jin Soo-Hyun, Hana and Daewon to Wilhelmina, but for the moment, it came to Nikolai.

"This trash is called Nikolai Volkov; not only did he try to steal my woman in high school, but he caused many fights and issues. He also lives off rich women taking their money and conning them because he doesn't wish to work for real."

Nikolai could only smile because his left arm almost got torn off from Nikita's body, trying to lunge at him at the speed of sound.

'What a fool...'

However, then Mari stepped forward with tears in her eyes and pulled down the back of her dress revealing scars.

"I-It's true... Nikolai is a monster. He was both forceful and violent, making me do things no matter how tired or sore I was."

Then, an enormous image appeared on the massive L.E.D screens... it was her back full of wounds and scars, but her face seemed younger.

As if it was when she was in high-school, when dating Nikolai.

"If I said no, he would hit me with a stick till I couldn't move, then violate me."

'Oi oi... I am a verified virgin! However, is this where I act all edgy and swear to never forgive you both for setting me up?'

Nikolai closed his eyes while pulling Nikita onto his lap, his fingers digging into her muscular arms, holding her in place. 

Yet to the people in the room, some took it as a confirmation because of how deep his fingers sank into Nikita's flesh.

However, there were some in the room who knew the truth... "LIAR!" Aiko Nakamura stood from her seat; despite failing the police exams, her sense of justice and honesty never changed, which made Nikolai's lips curl into a gentle smile.

"I know it was you who hurt him! I saw his wounded body, and it was me who bandaged and cleaned his wounds because he couldn't afford to go to the hospital!"

"Oh my, Aiko? Do you really want to admit to being my ex's cheating partner and accomplice?"

Mari's lips curled into a vicious smile as she slammed the table and pointed at Nikolai. "This beast raped and maimed my body, forever scarring me! How can you stick up for scum like this! Anyone who does must be a deranged bitch who is crazy for his looks!"

Because of how loud the pair were, nobody noticed the doors opened a few moments before, and a woman with divine beauty stood against the wall with her hands crossed under her huge, world-class breasts.

"I guess that means that I am also a stupid and gullible, crazy bitch, obsessed with his huge mushroom too."

"Hahaha! See, look another of his many women!" Mari shouted, causing more people to turn towards the door as Selene stepped forward. Her lips curled into a smirk as if she found this whole situation fun.

"Well, I cannot deny that we share a special relationship, and if he left my side, I might just never be the same or recover..."

"See!" Mari shouted, but Daiki's face was pale.

Like a ghost, he began to fade into the background and make space between him and Mari. His eyes looked at Selene, who only watched Nikolai, her gaze filled with a strange light that Daiki thought was love or passion.

He then turned to Nikolai, who smiled and waved at him like nothing.

This caused Daiki to feel terrified. 'I wanted to embarrass him and only ended up fooling myself!' He thought, shocked at how calm Nikolai was.

'Oh god... why does it feel like I made a big mistake inviting her...'

Nikolai felt he was trapped. 

A wolf on his lap, a vampire at his back, and two filthy liars ahead of him!

[You are having fun, though—you wanted to let them meet, didn't you?]

'Yeah. The sooner Selene and Nikita meet, the faster I can move forward and plan for the future.'

[Your father wasn't this cunning and sly...]

'Heh, I am not my father. Of course, I would be different!'

[Yet you gather bitches just like he did... and your mushroom has the same bend, just because it's a little bigger does—]

'I don't want to know about my father's package... please, spare me, Eliza. Nikita is ready to kill.'

[Sorry, you were so calm. It just happened. Wow, her eyes are on fire... is this that old J-kingdom saying 'a shuraba?']

On one side, with a gentle smile, Selene hid her bloodthirsty red aura from the others while it spread through the room, almost crushing the entire area.

Then the other, Nikita's silver aura, was crushing Nikolai himself as she sat on his lap and glared at Selene.

[I think the two already knew each other master! I am going to enter hibernation to avoid destruction, fufu. Good luck!]

'Oi!? Come back! It's like being trapped between two malfunctioning Chernobyl nuclear reactors!'

[Fighting!]
