Burning

Even though she kept a safe distance, Iria was watching the battle intently, waiting for any opportunity to help Klaus. It wasn't hard to see that both he and Shadya were rapidly getting weaker, but then that happened…

The vampire's body just caught fire as he embraced the necromancer, leaving Irina shocked and worried. So even though he's told her not to come near, the fairy can't stand by and watch the man she loves to burn.

*Whoosh*

She flies as fast as she can toward them.

"Waitt!!!" Even burning, Klaus notices Irina's approach, so he breaks the 'hot kiss' with Shadya. "Don't approach yet!!"

"AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!" Shadya screams as every part of her body in contact with Klaus burns painfully.

"This is madness!!" Irina lands in front of them and panics. "You have to stop it!!"

That definitely wasn't one of Klaus' best plans, but it was all he could think of to take down Shadya. And though she is now screaming in pain, he still fears she has enough power to fight back.

*Gasp*

Klaus has a hard time speaking as the fire starts to overcome his regeneration; he only has a few more drops of blood left.

"Wait until you can kill her..." He asks Irina.

And as much as she wants to torture and kill Shadya, that becomes irrelevant compared to Klaus' situation.

"Fuck it!" Irina doesn't think twice before ignoring Klaus' request and trying to get him off Shadya.

The flames on his body are scorching and powerful, but the fairy ignores her own pain and grabs the vampire by the shoulders.

"What are you doing?!?" Klaus doesn't want his flames to hurt Irina, but he can't react in time, and the fairy lifts him into the air.

"I'll get you out of here!" Irina understands that those flames are due to sunlight, so she quickly heads back to the Bronze Skull Sect's building while her hands and arms get burned.

Klaus sees Shadya rolling in the sand to get rid of those flames; she is badly injured but not dead yet. "Kill her; you have to kill her now, Irina!!"

Irina ignores Klaus' request again and doesn't even look back. She doesn't doubt that he really is immortal, but she can't go on seeing him in flames; that hurts her heart more than it was losing her own wings.

He can't do anything as she takes him inside the building, causing him to lose sight of Shadya. As soon as the sunlight is no longer touching his body, the flames quickly lose their strength.

But his body is still burning, so Irina lands on the floor and uses her own injured hands to try desperately to extinguish the remaining flames.

Klaus is touched to see Irina's effort to help him at the cost of her own suffering. He is not used to such kindness, and it makes him love her even more.

"No... I'm fine... you have to kill her... before..." He tries to ask Irina to go after Shadya before she recovers.

"Screw her!" Irina finishes the flames on Klaus' body and is heartbroken to see that almost his whole skin is charred and his wings have turned to ash.

She quickly picks up a shard of stone from the floor and rips open her wrist before bringing it up to his mouth. "Drink it, quick!"

Klaus really needs blood right now as he doesn't have any blood essence left, and even his heart is in pieces. So he drinks the delicious blood of Irina.

Her blood acts even faster than before in his body, making him regenerate very quickly. His skin and hair return to normal while even his heart is reconstructed, but there is no sign of scales or wings without the Dragon Princess' blood.

"*Huff*" Irina lets out a relieved sigh as she sees Klaus get well. "You nearly scared me to death..."

Klaus is feeling a lot of intense emotions right now; a part of him is very frustrated that Shadya is still alive, and another part is upset that he doesn't have more of the Dragon Princess's blood. But the biggest part of him is very grateful that Irina is by his side.

After his family got trapped in coffins, he got used to living alone, but now he's no longer alone, thanks to the fairy.

"Irina..." As soon as he regains his strength, he gets up and presses her body against the floor; his eyes turn sad when he sees the burns on her arms and hands.

She is thrilled that he is fine, but the fact that he is naked on top of her leaves her shy, especially because she can feel his big rod touching her belly.

"..." She just blushes as she gazes at him with sparkling eyes.

He can't resist her cute expression and kisses her lips. But the kiss isn't long as Klaus stops it before getting up and looking at the spot he fought Shadya.

"I will kill her!" Irina speaks with determination as she flies into the sky but then doesn't see the necromancer in that spot; in fact, there is no sign of her anywhere among the nearby dunes.

"Did she disappear??" Klaus asks as he notices Irina's confusion.

"I can't see her..." Irina looks around, but it's hard to see anything in that desert because there are high dunes and sand clouds everywhere.

The fairy quickly gives up looking for Shadya and returns to Klaus' side, avoiding looking at his low body parts. "It's okay, she's hurt and weak, so she can't go far, right?"

"I don't know how much of my blood she still has..." He sighs as he looks at the dunes on the horizon, but the sunlight hurts his eyes, forcing him to retreat into the shadows.

Irina looks at him with a concerned expression. "We can go after them later; shall we just wait... for the evening?"

"The sun is my weakness..." He explains. "I can cover my body, but I'll still get weak outside during the day, and if sunlight touches any part of my body, I'll burn to ashes."

"What a fucking curse!" Irina can't help but exclaim.

Klaus had already gotten used to avoiding the sun; however, now he can't help but think about the Dragon Princess and how her blood can prevent his only weakness.
