"I have to wonder...
Wonder-- what you are thinking as you ravage my throat adorned with such carnal eyes.
These eyes, that disavow any sense of pity or regret. What then, are you if not
a monster in mortal form? My friend? My partner in business? My protector? My enemy,
perhaps?" Julius coughed as he took a moment to gather his breath, an ill-timed sarcastic
chuckle muttering from his lips in an attempt to distract himself "You are a man of many
trades...Lucius. A beast, is simply the one you mastered first. A beast... yes, a beast...
A beast who craves my flesh and blood at every second, for you've no escape from your
sanguine hunger. A curse lays upon us both, so it would seem. You, a man incapable
of death, tethered to me through a blood pact and memories of old... and I, whose very
being is subdued and ensnared in your cage without a choice at all."
Julius had expected that he would not receive any sort of reaction from the man clad in black
aside him. To do so, would disengage him from his meal, something he seemed to relish in
even at the worst of times. It couldn't be helped, Julius had discovered long before; it was in
his nature. Enduring this hellish ordeal was his only escape from an even worse outcome.
And yet, as this thought drifted away-- that small and brief curiosity that for some
reason or another, prompted his bizarre question, was overturned by something unexpected.
Lucius, had stopped.
Haltingly, he pulled away ever so subtle-- as if, despite the blood dripping down his chin and
eyes that reflected such sin... there was still an ounce of him there; a man with knowledge
vast and passion for the arts unyielding. Twas such an unexpected turn, that Julius dared not
move in the event he was mistaken. To his disbelief, Lucius spoke--
"A man with no sense of pity or regrets? Do my eyes cast such able falsehoods that you would
believe such things? Does my resolve seem endless and devoid of anguish? I'm flattered, but-"
Julius was still, furrowing his brows with a tight lipped grimace as Lucius whispered against his ear. His
voice hissed between his words, his grasp tightening as if his composure was on the brink of collapse
"If that's what you believe then you are sorely mistaken..."

You write elegantly. NoAru Kagerou is meant to come out as a book, right? Or perhaps a series of books?
So far 3 books. Eventually adapted to a comic inspired by japanese manga.
Thank you for your kind words.
