A Guide to Raising a Little Human [Vampire Clan]

The moment this chaotic thought arose, Alpha extinguished it himself.

Damn it, how could it be as simple as just having one more job?

Becoming a partner and having a pet are two completely different things.

"I... let me think about it, let me think it over carefully... we shouldn't be a couple..."

Alpha finished speaking somewhat guiltily, bracing himself for the little human to get angry or cry.

However, the little human remained unusually calm after hearing this clear rejection.

"Okay, I understand."

Alpha breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Chu Lin said to him in the same calm tone, "Is it because you think I'm dirty, right?"

It's... over...

These three words suddenly popped into Alpha's mind, and his thoughts became a complete mess.

He can't exactly say, "No, it's just that I don't like you."

It's even less likely that they would say, "Yes."

Even hesitation is not allowed, because it will be taken as consent.

Alpha, in a panic, stood up abruptly and grabbed Chu Lin's shoulder: "Of course not, I absolutely don't think that way. You're great, you're really great... Your past experiences don't define you."

Chu Lin was not surprised by this answer.

As expected, it's a friend-zoned card.

Xiao Bai was wrong; Alpha didn't like him. They couldn't get Alpha to listen to them this way.

Chu Lin even gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"But my past experiences have shaped who I am now... By the way, don't you have mysophobia? Does that mean you'll never like me?"

The smile was a little shallow, not reaching the eyes, and one could even see a hint of fatigue in it.

It's as if I already knew the outcome, so I wouldn't be sad even if I didn't get it...

Alpha suddenly felt as if something had crushed his heart.

Damn it, it seems he's hurt his little human's feelings.

From Lin's perspective, he was so deeply hurt by one vampire, yet he still bravely expressed his love to another vampire, and the result... the result was like this...

Lin was already pitiful enough. Not only did he fail to make Lin happy, he misled him and hurt him further…

When a self-proclaimed benevolent giver discovers that they have actually been committing evil deeds, their last shred of rationality is instantly overwhelmed by a tidal wave of guilt.

Why not?

How long can a human live? Why can't he just give in a little? Why can't his wishes be fulfilled?

Lin just wanted a vampire to love him... He just wanted love.

What isn't love?

The love of the owner, the love of the partner, the love of the family.

He couldn't let Lin down again. He didn't want to see those beautiful black eyes devoid of light, filled only with weariness, sadness, or anger.

Moreover, he probably does have a bit of that fondness too… Vampires are naturally drawn to humans. It's just that their arrogance as superior beings leads them to mistake this fondness for affection towards pets; perhaps even he himself is…

Driven by some impulse, Alpha finally spoke up: "No, I don't feel that way. If you don't like our current relationship, then let's change it to whatever you like, it's fine either way."

Chu Lin blinked.

Eh?

What happened? Why did you suddenly agree?

Weren't you just refusing?

Chu Lin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought, could this be the legendary moral blackmail?

Alpha probably agreed to this because he felt sorry for him...

So, is this kind of seduction successful or unsuccessful?

However, Chu Lin had no time to think. Alpha had already lowered his head, cupped his face, and kissed him.

The first touch was light, like a test, and only after finding that Chu Lin did not resist did it gently cover him.

A vampire's kiss is icy cold; you can't feel any ambiguous warmth, only a sense of fear, like being coiled by a python.

I really hate kissing vampires, even if the person is Alpha.

Chu Lin half-closed his eyes, trying to suppress his discomfort.

After a moment of awkward silence, he realized that he should act more like he liked Alpha.

Chu Lin then opened his mouth in response.

Alpha clearly knew nothing; his movements were clumsy. He simply pressed against her without any teasing or pushing. All his movements were shallow, as if he was afraid of scaring her.

But Chu Lin was no longer a blank slate.

He began to actively guide Alpha's movements.

From the initial light touch of the tongue, to taking a breath, to the suggestive licking.

Alpha's breathing became heavier.

The dominant position shifted again the instant the Alpha Society launched its counterattack.

Alpha grabbed Chu Lin's wrist and pinned him against the bathroom wall.

The cold tiles pressed against his back sent a shiver down Chu Lin's spine.

It was cold both in front and behind...

But unlike others, Alpha is very soft and gentle, and even her kisses are restrained and not frightening.

I wonder if this was Alpha's first kiss...

"Lin, I like you."

Upon hearing this, Chu Lin looked at Alpha's flushed face, not understanding why he would say this only after the kiss.

To be honest, it's unlikely that Alpha would fall in love with him so easily after just one kiss.

Some vampires will tell humans they like them, but this is basically just to deceive those intellectually challenged humans, to make them more obedient in bed, and then discard them when they're done with them. They don't have to take any responsibility, and no other vampires will know.

Although Chu Lin knew that Alpha wasn't doing this for that reason, but rather because he felt sorry for him and wanted to cheer him up, it was probably something he would only say in private and wouldn't make public.

After all, for vampires, being with humans is like being with an inflatable doll; using them is one thing, but talking about dating and marriage is another.

Alpha probably still doesn't like him.

But that doesn't matter, because he doesn't like Alpha either.

If two people who don't like each other get together and pretend to love each other, how can you say that one of them is at fault?

Although Alpha did it because she didn't want to hurt him, he was just trying to escape.

But if he didn't do that, Alpha would always think of him as his pet. Given Alpha's controlling nature and his ability to act, he knew he would never be able to escape in his lifetime.

Chu Lin suppressed his guilt and softly hummed in agreement.

"By the way, please don't call me 'baby' anymore..."

"Okay, what do you want me to call you?"

Chu Lin's eyes revealed a cruelty that Alpha hadn't noticed.

"Just call me Ah Lin."
