—Vampire Duke Gojo Satoru X Vampire Reader
Tumblr media
❦︎ Précis:
"Please do not pout, your sulking is not good for my health." Your brow furrowed and your heart heavy from the indescribable feeling his upset face brings. Satoru frowns and pulls your waist to stand before him. Your back collided against his chest and in no split second, a pair of tempting fangs nibbled on your neck in an attempt of piercing your fragile skin where his mate mark is inked in your skin. His blue rose... His hand rested on your hips, running his hand in the curve of your waist. A shuddering sensation crawled by your spine at the boiling heat of anticipation in your belly. He doesn't bite but the friction of his sharp canines against your neck brings out the tingles in your spine.

Tumblr media
There are thoughts that you do not need to hear.
Like how no one fails to notice your appearance. Wherever you go, you receive long gazes that hold different thoughts.
Before Satoru turned you into a vampire, your lady-in-waiting had often mentioned how peculiar you look even as a human. Was it for your shining hair, your gleaming eyes that seems like the river of stars, or perhaps your skin that seem to sparkle in the moonlight? They often told you your features are closer to the nymphs residing in Soladrina—the floating plains of the gods and goddesses—than that of a human.
Satoru has never mentioned these and you never gave them attention. Surely, he never failed to tell you how beautiful you are but never did he make you feel that you are different from what you are supposed to be.
But your mate's normalcy to these so-called 'differences' doesn't apply to the eyes of society.
The Grand Duke has long foregone his social duties. Ever since the late Grand Duchess, it is known that the grand duchy has dropped all social appearances. With his father sick and bedridden; His Grace is often away for hunting or war there was no one to deal with such frivolous outings. And even if he was present, he has no interest. He's far more suited to the gore of war and the silence of his study than drinking tea and eating scones in the garden.
Then, there's you.
His butler mentioned starting to build relations with the other families. At first, you dropped the idea, with no title in your name it is unheard of to attend the banquets of the aristocrats. Moreso for a human turned vampire. The vast difference in status and race was quite a dilemma for you to suddenly step into the high society without looking as if you are using the Grand Duke's paramount reputation and influence.
But after Satoru brought you in the celebration of the winter solstice, conspicuously displaying his claim and palpable affection in public eyes, everyone just knew the wheels are turning. The very next day a mass of correspondence and invitations are pouring in.
Not for His Grace.
But for you.
It was no secret how the Grand Duke is devoted to the bone with his mate. It was just a matter of passing the mourning period of his father that he will name you his Grand Duchess. From his gestures, there is no question which fell hard between the two of you. All aristocrats are intrigued about what kind of lady captivated the cold-blooded warlord, for him to be so besotted to the bone. 
"Your Grace." You sighed at his pout, this petulant attitude has been going on for two days now. And from the looks of it, it will continue even more if you don't promise him something he likes. "I promised tomorrow, we'll go picnic with no more interruption."
The sight of your mate sulking isn't something to be underestimated.
"Please do not pout, your sulking is not good for my health." Your brow furrowed and your heart heavy from the indescribable feeling his upset face brings.
Satoru frowns and pulls your waist to stand before him. Your back collided against his chest and in no split second, a pair of tempting fangs nibbled on your neck in an attempt of piercing your fragile skin where his mate mark is inked in your skin. His blue rose...
His hand rested on your hips, running his hand in the curve of your waist. A shuddering sensation crawled by your spine at the boiling heat of anticipation in your belly. He doesn't bite but the friction of his sharp canines against your neck brings out the tingles in your spine.
"Get back here before twilight because you are not leaving my sight the day after tomorrow until you get tired of my face," Satoru growled in defeat. He was cursing the mailman who delivered the letter despite the rain. Running a hand over his hair in annoyance. You're his mate but it seems he's the one who least spends time with you. Where's the justice in that? Satoru muttered profanities in frustration.
"Is that a punishment, Your Grace?" You giggled, tapping the nose of your mate as he preys on your every move. "Because it sounds like a reward to me."
Satoru merely snorted and ever slowly let you withdraw from his arms to get ready. His eyes were glued to your figure as you put on your corset, pulling on the strings that confined the soft curves of your waist to the slenderness of your hips but the strings kept loosening.
A hand sneaks up to rub circles on your shoulder blade and the strings of the corset tug you making you stumble backward until you hit the familiar hard chest of your mate.
"I should just pull this, right?" Hot breath fanned your nape.
You faintly nodded. Despite how many times this moment repeats itself, it never fails to have you hold your breath feeling the strings tighten, forcing you to breathe out a sweet gasp and straighten up as Satoru hummed, knotting the strings into a bow and staring at the enticing curve of your pretty spine.
"Good girl." Satoru purred, his hand found your tights, caressing them as the two of you stare at the mirror, your unbearable flushed cheeks and legs clenched together whilst his devilish smirk as he nibbled your earlobe. "You're so sweet and soft to me Kitten," Satoru whispered as he toyingly bit the shell of your ears whilst keeping an arm around your waist to keep you from falling because of your knees wobbling from his caress.
"Milady? Can I come in?" A chamber keeper knocked hesitantly, trancing you out of a stupor.
If your mate's touch wasn't enough to drive you crazy, the embarrassment of the person outside hearing you and Satoru is sure enough to level you into a combusting mess.
"Are you alright Lady Y/n? For cold weather, your face is too flushed."
Lady Akari, one of the daughters of the nobles living within Albastru asked you. She's a quaint young lady who often keeps to herself unless spoken to. It just so happens she's standing close to you this time.
"Yes, I am alright. The layers of clothing are just a bit stuffy even for the cold weather." An amicable smile from you settled her and offered another cup of the chilled tea which you happily accepted and she talked to you about the new venture of her father that may interest you.
"If it isn't Lady Y/n. Are you alright Milady? You look pale, paler than a vampire usually is." A bratty voice came close from your back and a teenage girl with extravagant layers of expensive fur to keep her from the cold smiled at you but her foxy eyes spell trouble.
"Lady Minami... you look—" you paused and looked at her up and down before continuing. "—rather stuffy."
The lady frowned at your remark.
"Of course, Lady Y/n is paler. After all, she is still a newborn. For a banal human to adapt this fast in our nature, it must only be because of His Grace's venom." A cold voice emerged behind Minami. Lady Risa of the Kamo Clan looked at you with narrowed eyes. Her distaste for you was openly displayed. "Such an impure blood." The venom was dripping in the tone.
"That is not true! Lady Y/n has the most beautiful eyes than any of you." Lady Akari rushed to defend you but it only gathered much more attention in your corner thus you held her back and turned to the two girls picking on you.
It's not unusual for pure-blooded vampires to openly regard their distaste for turned ones like you. Vampires can be quite the purist when it comes to bloodlines. Seeing humans as nothing more than blood banks. Truly... It's a good thing Satoru isn't here or else you'll never hear the end of this.
Setting down your cup of tea you straightened your posture, looked at the two ladies, and tilted your head to the side with an unamused smile.
"What unrefined mouths you have. Is that how educated noble ladies behave? I would like to see the face of your tutors and show them their incompetence in teaching etiquette for raising brats like you who lack the class and decorum in a social gathering. Uncultured girls."
The surrounding spectators chuckled and the host immediately came to your corner asking about the problem.
"You dare run your mouth because you're His Grace's mate. You're just a figurehead no matter how you act like a noble lady." Lady Minami seethed. 
"It doesn't change I am the Lady of the Grand Duke you have been wanting over the years. I am the mate of the Grand Duke. If you have enough dignity and intelligence you will know how to behave around me. Future Countess."
Lady Risa glared at you with whole passion and turned her heel away.
"My Lady..." The host of the banquet looked troubled by the conflict and looked at you for leniency.
You nod and let the matter go. This is just but a scratch of how high society works. It is such a tiring thing to deal with calculations and machinations against each other. No wonder Satoru dislikes it to the core. You sat on the bench under the shade of a magnolia tree away from the party.
"Lady Risa was right. Doesn't Lady Y/n look too different from humans? I once visited the Eastern Continent and I've never seen a human that looks anything like her."
The girls gossiped behind your back, not knowing that you were listening behind the tree.
"His Grace, The Grand Duke must be blinded that's why he's so infatuated to her. Come to think of it, why would the Grand Duke even like a human? He's from the lineage of the Imperial Family with the purest royal blood. It must only be because of that bewitching face that he has fallen for her."
"Have you noticed? She came out of nowhere and the Grand Duke was totally in love with her. She must come from the race of witches and enchanted him."
A chuckle came from your side. Lady Mei-Mei swirled her red wine and looked at you.
"Gossiping won't bring gold in their pockets. Don't you think so Lady Y/n? Don't frown, unlike them, you're a rich woman. Money makes people sing and dance."
Your frown was relieved and replaced by a chuckle at her open greed for money.
If there is one thing about Lady Mei-Mei is that she's too attached to wealth. But that also makes her easier to hang out with. She is honest and efficient. The kind that will bring gold and information with every deal you make with her.
Satoru stared outside his window as your carriage entered the gates.
"Should I have the dinner served at the garden, Master?" Yuta noticed his Uncle's sudden interest in the window and surmised that you were back. His Uncle has no other interest aside from you so it has become easy for Yuta to know when you are around.
Satoru looked at the sky and saw the grey clouds brewing in. Promising a harsh thunderstorm for tonight. 
"Yuta." Satoru's eyes narrowed at the garden where different flowers are clashing on the blue roses flowers he specifically planted for his mate. Weeds. Satoru clicked his tongue.
"Yes, Master?" Yuta stiffened at the cold tone he was so familiar with.
"Some unsightly thorns are trying to prick what's mine..." Seems like there will be tongues that need discipline. Subordinates that dare to bite the hand of their master that feed them bring nothing but an omen. Seems like the garden needs some weeding.
The door to the study opened and your figure immediately diminished Satoru's dark thoughts. Yuta excused himself to prepare the dinner and left the two of you alone.
"Did you have fun?" Satoru started the fire in the hearth and sat on the couch, patting his lap for you to join him. Your sweet weight fitted perfectly on his lap as he bring the quilt up your belly ensuring you are snug and safe from the cold bite of the storm.
The drizzle of the rain started hitting the glass window but Satoru kept you cozy and warm near the fire, curled inside his arms. His lips rested on your head while your nose nuzzled against his chin. Preciously cradled away from problems and harm. Satoru brushed the stray hair on your forehead. No one would ever understand how much your existence means to his life. But that's alright, all he could ever truly care for is you and only you.
He could forget everything and just have you like this, satisfied and snuggled in his protective embrace. Everything fades in comparison in every moment he sees your smile.
"Lady Mei-Mei told me about a new business venture..." Your cheery voice dissipated the exhaustion in his mind. You talked and talked even while dinner is served in the room and everyone left for your privacy. Satoru kept you on his lap and took it upon himself to feed you while you told him about today's happenings.
"Mnnn, anything else you need to tell me, Kitten?" Satoru lazily drawled, watching you lick off the faint drops of blood after feeding a bit from his wrist. You're really like a kitten. He smirked darkly and waited for you to tell him what he's been waiting for. 
Your pretty eyes blinked in confusion and shook your head like an innocent lamb.
"Really?" So you're not gonna tell him? Too bad he saw everything with his eyes even if you do not tell him.
"Oh! I remembered." A pout formed on your lips. "We can't have a picnic tomorrow, the ground is wet from the rain. What should we do?"
"..." That's not what he wants to hear.
Satoru hummed and tucked you in his arms before standing up and walking to the connecting door leading to his bedroom chambers. Laying you on his bed and tucked you under the covers as he dropped a lingering kiss over your lips before closing the curtains to keep the lightning from startling you in your sleep.
"I will finish something and join you soon. Sleep for now. I'll think of something we can do tomorrow."
"Do you have to?" You brought the blanket higher to your nose until only your eyes are visible. "Can't we sleep already?"
If this is the usual matter Satoru would have foregone it and joined you in the bed, holding you in his arms as he stroke your head to sleep. but this is different. He smiled apologetically and kissed your forehead one last time before walking back to his study where Yuta was waiting, a stack of paper in the young man's hands.
"Master I have the list of ladies who offended the Lady during the tea party earlier." Yuta felt a little sorry for the date of these ladies. But his Master does not hold debts mercifully.
The lighting struck and the feral glint in Satoru's eyes glowed.
The weeds in the garden will have to suffer the torrential rain.
The quarterly gathering is a week away. Seems like their fathers will know what repercussions entail when they fail to discipline their daughters' mouths. Satoru never does light punishments. 
Only with pain, they will learn their lesson.
It's okay if you won't tell him how those women talked about you. But it doesn't mean he will let it go. No. He's not a gentleman nor is he a paragon. He is your mate and if anyone dares to prick or even hurt a strand of your hair means offence against him as well. 
Offence against him is the same as surrendering their head to the silver platter.
And you don't need to know about it. After all...
There are thoughts that you do not need to hear.

I loved the interview with Mr. and Mrs. Gojo, my precious babies, and this time I would like to start again but in a parallel universe with the Grand Duke and the future Grand Duchess. Please note that as an aspiring journalist, I have a lot of questions. I grab my notebook and pen, let's go!
Forgive me in advance during this interview, I may lack tact and go straight to the point.
Firstly, how are Your Graces doing? Forgive me for my peasant vocabulary, as I am not part of the nobility (and furthermore, I do not speak English properly, the difficulties are piling up), but I will do my best!
The common people would like to learn more about the two of you. You make such a lovely couple (yes, I am flattering you because I love both of you). How did you fall in love? Was it love at first sight? Both of you at the same time?
By the way, if you had to define your love, what would it be? Here are some examples, but there are many others: True love, Love at first sight, Girls Fall first and boys fall hard, Soulmates, Right person right time, Sun and moon, First love, Pure love, Enemies to lovers, Friends to lovers, etc.
When will Madame officially become the Grand Duchess? Your Grace, can't you surpass the codes? And if not, why?
Furthermore, how did your relationship become official in high society despite not being engaged?
Please, enlighten us. Your Grace holds the highest title after the royal family, and I understood that you have as much influence as the Emperor himself. So how should people address you? Maybe I am not very clear, but basically, how should they call you in public and in private? And for you, Madame? Since you are not yet married, you do not have a title, if I am not mistaken? Or do you still have a temporary title before becoming the Grand Duchess? (us peasants want to know…)
By the way, did it pose any problems not being born "noble" and "vampire"? High society people can be so uptight! Love is not up for discussion, regardless of origin, skin color, race, or social status! Madame, did you have any troubles? Tell me their names, and I'll write a scandalous article about these brutes!
Madame was a human before your encounter, but how did you become a vampire? Does a bite suffice? Can anyone become a vampire? And can all vampires transform humans, or only pure-blooded ones like Monsieur?
Before your encounter with Madame, did you drink human blood, or did you manage to live all those years without drinking blood thanks to your family genes?
Are there other pure-blooded families among the vampires?
If I understood correctly, the world you live in is a mix of several races, which is beautiful in terms of coexistence, but in your kingdom, are there only vampires or also humans? Is the Emperor a vampire or a human?
Is there a hierarchy among vampires? Which one?
Why are there hunters on your territory? (it's suicidal or someting) Do vampires have to live hidden?
Madame, a personal question for you, have you never wondered about your origins? You are divinely beautiful and unique, even in a vampire society small laugh Is it something that intrigues you? Also, you don't ask yourself any questions about your family? And you, Monsieur, do you not have any questions? (Regardless, you are very well-suited!)
You're not married, but have you already consummated the non-marriage? Was it your first time? Madam, you seem so pure! And Sir, you seem so...so...just. I know it, we know it, you know it, they know it, you are attractive people. (I am risking my life for my article) We want answers.
Now, a little genetic question, the Gojo family is a pure-blooded family, and by marrying Madame, there will potentially be an heir with hybrid blood. Could this imply new things for the Gojo family? Does the power in vampires reside in their blood?
I know Mr. Gojo will not be happy with what I am about to say, but… I can't wait for you to get married, have children, and especially a daughter… diabolical laughter Yes, you understood! A love story with the dark-eyed crown prince and the little blue-eyed Gojo princess EHEHEHEHEHE!
One last question, this one concerns Madame. It has been noticed that among vampires, you are… weaker than the norm? For example, you have smaller fangs than other vampires (that's too cute). My question is: is it because you were human before? Or is it something unique and inexplicable? I'm sorry for these questions that may seem silly to you, but I'm not really well-informed about vampires. As you may have noticed, I'm just… a little fairy (just a Winx for today ahah).
I leave here alive and with plenty of information, thank you for everything! Invite me to the wedding, and I will write a great article! It will sell like hotcakes. Take care.

—Vampire Duke Gojo Satoru X Vampire Reader
Tumblr media
❦︎ Précis:
You chuckled remembering how you made him agree. Some spilled wine on the carpet, soft gasps, and ripped his tunic while the rough wall pressed ever so flatly on your back with his hand pinning your wrist as his fangs buried themselves in the sweet concave of your enticing neck. "I can hear what you're thinking, Kitten," Satoru growled ever so lowly warning you with the mind link flashing the debauchery you trapped him with just to make him agree.
❦︎ Genre: vampire, fantasy, royalty
❦︎ WC/CW/TW: (4.2k)/ Grand Duke and his subtle love languages, an overview of vampire tradition and culture, suggestive hints at the end
❦︎ A/N: Thank you for the 3k guys, I'm so happy to have you all in this small corner 😭, with my tightest hugs and head pats, bear with me til I finally get that holiday vacation and we'll celebrate~ ✒️☕ a huge hug to the person who sent this, it was fun exploring LaLuna's culture and tradition because of your ask~
Tumblr media
Yuta informed you a day ago that a columnist from the imperial court is coming. Along with it is an envelope sealed with the Emperor's stamp.
Reading through the parchment, you sighed and found yourself in a position.
"His Imperial Highness must have a lot of time on his hands to start gossiping about his nephew..." You reread the parchment to confirm you're not misinterpreting things.
Dear Future Niece-in-Law,
I am writing to inform you that I let the high society know of my approval of your presence in my rascal nephew's life. Hence, I will send a columnist to Albastru to write a column for you in my imperial gazette for the next week. Drag my nephew and strap him on the chair if you have to.
It was stamped not just with any official seal but the Emperor's imperial seal.
Did his daughter steal the imperial seal and send this prank?
Unfortunately, Yuta informed you the Emperor himself directly sent the messenger, and the supposed meeting will be in a day or two. That leaves you almost slim to no chance of convincing Satoru in this little charade the Emperor has put on your shoulders.
"I didn't expect you'd agree so easily, Your Grace. What gives?" You cleared your throat as Satoru walked beside you with your hands entwined in his. He insisted that the two of you wear the same blue and white coordinated dress. If you're a little more shameless today, you would poke fun at him that he's more excited than you are. Yet you refrained from doing so... He might change his mind and not do the interview.
Satoru's face remained stoic as he looked ahead to the drawing room.
Bashful... 
You chuckled remembering how you made him agree.
Some spilled wine on the carpet, soft gasps, and ripped his tunic while the rough wall pressed ever so flatly on your back with his hand pinning your wrist as his fangs buried themselves in the sweet concave of your enticing neck.
"I can hear what you're thinking, Kitten," Satoru growled ever so lowly warning you with the mind link flashing the debauchery you trapped him with just to make him agree.
"What? I'm not doing anything, Your Grace." You couldn't hold back the chuckle as his jaw twitched, clearly holding back.
"Behave before I drag you into that vacant room and forego this audience you've worked hard to secure from me." Your eyes wandered to the nearest room where his eyes landed and raised a brow at you. Perhaps that is indeed enough teasing for now... 
He opened the door for you, and inside, the columnist was waiting with a bright smile. You exchanged some pleasantries. Of course, Satoru only answered with a few grunts and nods. Yuta came in with a tray of snacks and tea.
You both sat across the columnist and started the meeting.
"Forgive me in advance during this interview, I may lack tact and go straight to the point."
Firstly, how are Your Graces doing? Forgive me for my peasant vocabulary, as I am not part of the nobility but I will do my best!
"We're doing fine, thank you for coming. I know how far the Imperial Capital is to Albastru." You smiled. "I hope you didn't have a hard time during your travel."
"You want chamomile tea?" Satoru ignored the journalist and carefully set your ornate oriental cup of tea and a plate of your favorite sweets in front of you.
You looked at him for a few seconds before sighing, reminding him of the guest, but the Grand Duke simply shrugged and motioned for the columnist to continue. He almost growled as you fixed a plate of sweets for the columnist but since you knew him well already it doesn't take much thought to fix him a plateful of candied orange to appease his territorial stance.
No one wants a grumpy Grand Duke, more so a jealous one. It seems like the journalist already knew of your mate's territorial behavior and easily waved it off professionally and started the interview.
The common people would like to learn more about the two of you. You make such a lovely couple. How did you fall in love? Was it love at first sight? Both of you at the same time?
It was such a straightforward question you had to blink for a few seconds to register the notion.
His Grace, however, simply crossed his legs and sipped on his cup of tea. The frown earlier disappeared, replaced by a lopsided smirk, showing off his pointy canines.
"I recognized who she is to me the second I saw her..." Satoru vaguely answered.
Of course... Vampires and their innate ability to recognize their mates... Unlike you who was still a mortal at that time, clueless and in shambles after your near-death experience.
"I think... it's a gradual process. For me, it was never love at first sight." You shake your head. "We went on a slow but steady process, His Grace has been very gentle and attentive in educating me about the difference between humans and vampires, somehow along the way I just knew we wanted each other in our lives." You beamed.
By the way, if you had to define your love, what would it be? Here are some examples, but there are many others: True love, Love at first sight, Girls Fall first and boys fall hard, Soulmates, Right person right time, Sun and moon, First love, Pure love, Enemies to lovers, Friends to lovers, etc.
"My only one." Satoru curtly answered. He added a few more Turkish delights to your plate.
"We are already mates... so our souls are tied together." You thought to yourself finding the right word. "I guess, he's my fate that I never thought I would find."
His Grace looked at you, and despite his stoic face, the monocle shielding his eyes wasn't compelling enough to hide how his cerulean eyes turned fifty shades of dark blue from your words. Satoru silently turned his attention back to his tea, but his shoulders were visibly much more relaxed than earlier and you could see the corner of his lips turn up.
When will Madame officially become the Grand Duchess? Your Grace, can't you surpass the codes? And if not, why?
"Soon enough." His Grace answered this time. "Even the Emperor does not have the power to force the rule of succession after the death of a family member as the succession is not a matter of royal title or power but a rite of passage. Every noble family has a sacred tree where a rvet *(1/8 gram) of ash from every family member is stored inside from the time he is born. The sacred tree knows when a family member dies and will not accept any ashes within the three-year mourning period thus, no rite of passage into the family shall occur during that three years."
Furthermore, how did your relationship become official in high society despite not being engaged?
With this question, His Grace smirked, flashing his dangerous sharp fangs, and loosened the cuffs of his sleeves, revealing a vivid mate mark of a black butterfly looming over a red lotus.
"Who else can dare mark me?"
Who would? Heads would roll down to the ground before anyone could sink their fangs into his body. Unless it's someone he permits to do so... And that someone could only be you.
"His Grace and I are already with our mate marks... Weddings aren't necessarily required in vampire culture although they may seem right to be celebrated ostentatiously, however it's not mandatory. But as long as we both have marked each other that is already enough to profess to whom we belong." You smiled and peeled your sleeve on your shoulder to reveal three blue roses adorning your shoulderblade... The blue roses symbolize how unattainable the Grand Duke is, but he found his place in you. The blue rose has finally found his garden to bloom in.
"I would give you the grandest wedding this empire has ever seen." The Grand Duke frowned. His fingers found your smallest finger and toyed with it. Soon his family heirloom will adorn your fourth finger. What makes you think he will spare any fortune to lavish you with everything you deserve? "Although the wait may take a little longer, I assure you our wedding won't lack anything." He stared into your eyes with certainty.
You squeezed his hand, reminding him that you were in the journalist's presence and it wasn't the time for such bold words... But knowing the Grand Duke, he remained unfazed and kept playing with your finger... Kissing them to assure you.
Sapphires... Sapphires would look breathtaking on you. He thought at the back of his mind, making sure you wouldn't hear his aspirations for you through the mind link.
Please, enlighten us. Your Grace holds the highest title after the royal family, and I understood that you have as much influence as the Emperor himself. So how should people address you? Maybe I am not very clear, but basically, how should they call you in public and in private? And for you, Madame? Since you are not yet married, you do not have a title, if I am not mistaken? Or do you still have a temporary title before becoming the Grand Duchess? (us peasants want to know...)
"Oh! I was also confused when I first arrived here." You huffed. "But to adequately address him in public, especially in the Imperial Court, is His Imperial Highness, Grand Duke Satoru Gojo of Albastru. In private matters, you may call him Your Highness or His Grace, Grand Duke Satoru. His Grace is not specific with titles, so don't worry about angering him if you mistake his title." You smiled.
"I am specific with titles..." The Grand Duke frowned. "I am making an exception only for you." He made sure to punctuate those words.
You shake your head and chuckle.
"To help you understand his title, His Grace descended from the House of Gojo, which is his Father's family. The Gojo lineage holds the highest military position in the Empire passed down to the generation, thus the title of the Grand Duke, and their territory is the Grand Duchy of Albastru. His Grace is titled 'His Imperial Highness' instead of 'His Royal Highness' with the reason that he pretends the rite of succession for the imperial throne because of his Mother's family which is the reigning imperial family of Parsua Amara. Simply put, aside from his official title as the grand duke, he is also a prince second to the throne after his cousin the Crown Princess because His Grace's late Mother was the Imperial Princess of the empire and the late sister of the Emperor. I hope I made it easier to understand."
His Grace chuckled and ever so gently patted your hair. His eyes gazed at you as you enthusiastically discussed the matter. 
"I see you listened to your Social Studies tutor quite well." His Grace smirked. "As for My Mate, she's currently Lady Y/n, Viscountess of Louiebell. Since she is not my Grand Duchess yet, it is only right for her to receive a customary title until her rite of passage into my family's sacred tree comes." He held a proud smile for her as he spoke to the journalist about her achievements. "You should visit Louiebell one of these days. It has grown quite well over the months, and they have the best fabrics and gardens in the whole Albastru." Satoru boasted to the journalist with full praise for your work.
By the way, did it pose any problems not being born "noble" and "vampire"? High society people can be so uptight! Love is not up for discussion, regardless of origin, skin color, race, or social status! Madame, did you have any troubles? Tell me their names, and I'll write a scandalous article about these brutes!
"Please don't." You chuckled. "It is not much of a trouble than I thought. Although I am a turned vampire, the high society holds the significance of who turned who into a vampire. I am considered a part of His Grace since he is the one who made me a vampire, and any disrespect directed to a turned one is considered disrespect to the one who turned him or her."
You thought for a moment.
"The biggest trouble I perhaps had was a tea party where everyone refused to speak until I left... Aside from that, no one has seriously caused me any harm besides the usual jabs. Rest assured, I am now happy with the friends I found in Albastru."
His Grace held your hand and didn't speak any further, but judging from the darkness swirling in his cold eyes as you relive those days, you better change the topic before his patience wore thin and dug into his grudges.
Madame was a human before your encounter, but how did you become a vampire? Does a bite suffice? Can anyone become a vampire? And can all vampires transform humans or only pure-blooded ones like Monsieur?
"You can become a vampire if you willingly submit to be one. No, a bite cannot suffice. Aside from biting, the vampire needs to feed his or her blood into the person he or she is turning until the person wakes up from quiescence. Not everyone can become a vampire. And not all vampires can turn humans into one... And you are almost but not quite correct about the pure-blooded ones." You nodded... Satoru can explain it better than you.
"There are three factors to turn someone into a vampire. If any of these three weren't met, the process would fail and might kill the human instead. First, the human must be willing, and the willingness is not borne out of fear or coercion but a deep-seated desire on the human's part. Second, the human must have experienced a close-to-death experience... This is entirely subjective and a dangerous condition to meet since only fate can tell... Third and last, the vampire must have a strong will to fight the urge of bloodlust. Ordinary vampires do not have sufficient immunity against bloodlust and might end up sucking the human dry of their blood. This is "a general but not all" scenario. Pure-blooded vampires have more resilience but are also not entirely immune to bloodlust. Thus, turning a human into a vampire is an uncertain process. You must have the willingness of a human, the approval of fate, and the resilience of a vampire against our primal instinct. Life and death is not guaranteed." 
Before your encounter with Madame, did you drink human blood, or did you manage to live all those years without drinking blood thanks to your family genes?
"I drink human blood. No vampire has not drunk human blood, trust me." His Grace shook his head. "I stopped drinking human blood in my adolescence. For me, the second best taste of blood is from the moose."
"You do like hunting those when we hunt." You chuckled at his appetite for the said animal. "The longest he hasn't taken in blood was probably three months. His Grace ate human food with me when I was still human. Though it may not be the same as drinking blood, he seems to like the rare steak until now. The longest I can go without blood is two weeks. For him, it could stretch for three months. He's more resistant to bloodlust because he's a pure-blood, but when he drinks... he drinks so plenty."
Satoru chuckled at the remark.
"You do the same too, My Lady. Don't blame me that your blood is simply too sweet to resist." He smirked knowingly.
Are there other pure-blooded families among the vampires?
"Of course, there are many other pure-blooded families... But the major ones seated in the Imperial Courts are the House of Gojo, the House of Zen'in, and the House of Kamo. These three are the leading houses in terms of military and economics."
If I understood correctly, the world you live in is a mix of several races, which is beautiful in terms of coexistence, but in your kingdom, are there only vampires or humans? Is the Emperor a vampire or a human?
You smiled. You have to thank Satoru for teaching you history.
"There are seven races, represented by seven high towers with their respective thrones. There are the Deities; they reside in Soladrina, it's an island that cannot be seen unless you're invited. The Witches; are considered daughters of the gods and goddesses. Next is the Lycan, which occupies the South of the Continent which is the Kingdom of Finis Lua. Then the Vampires residing in the North which is the Empire of Parsua Amara. We have the Elves, they're elusive and hard to find. Then there are the Monsters, they are everywhere with no definite habitat. And finally the Humans, you can find them in the Eastern Continent. But of course, there are other races also living in Parsua Amara."
"My Uncle is a vampire. Though I doubt his senile fangs still work." His Grace smirked earning him a kick under the table and a glare from his beloved.
Is there a hierarchy among vampires? Which one?
"We have an Imperial Hierarchy."
Why are there hunters on your territory? (it's suicidal or something) Do vampires have to live hidden?
"The hunters... are rogues of the Lycan race who cross the de facto border. Based on the treaty seven years ago after the great war, vampires and lycans are not allowed to cross the borders. Though there are sometimes mishaps, those crossing the borders are immediately sentenced to death without mercy or deportation." Satoru supported his face with his hand. "Albastru lies between Parsua Amara and Finis Lua, thus, it is my job to guard the borders from any invasion against the enemies."
Madame, a personal question for you, have you never wondered about your origins? You are divinely beautiful and unique, even in a vampire society small laugh Is it something that intrigues you? Also, you don't ask yourself any questions about your family? And you, Monsieur, do you not have any questions? (Regardless, you are very well-suited!)
"Unfortunately I don't have memory of my past. All I remember is living in the snowy mountains until His Grace found me after I was attacked by wolves and was left to die. I don't know what happened before that and I am not compelled to find out about it. I am very much happy and satisfied with my life right now. Although I don't have much memory of the past, I would rather focus on the present I have and the future I will make. This is that fate I choose for myself and I wouldn't have it the other way. Whatever is bound to unfold will unfold by itself." You smiled with firmness etched on your gaze and words.
You're not married, but have you already consummated the non-marriage? Was it your first time? Madam, you seem so pure! And Sir, you seem so...so...just. I know it, we know it, you know it, they know it, you are attractive people. (I am risking my life for my article) We want answers.
Your cheeks burst with blush and despite your self-control, you held on to your mate's bicep for strength. Isn't this too revealing for a column that anyone in the empire can read?!
Satoru on the other hand seemed unfazed and merely raised a brow at the question. His arm snaked at the back of your waist and pat your hips in assurance.
"She's my mate... We own each other. I think that's clear enough to answer your question." He smirked. The sharp fang was enough to halt further delving questions on the topic.
"Marriage is not a necessary custom in the vampires... Instead, they are more inclined to the mating bond and marks... They honor it devotedly. His Grace and I are mates so... I don't see anything wrong with it." You shyly answered, Satoru squeezed your hand calming you down.
Now, a little genetic question, the Gojo family is a pure-blooded family, and by marrying Madame, there will potentially be an heir with hybrid blood. Could this imply new things for the Gojo family? Does the power in vampires reside in their blood?
You looked at Satoru quite confused by the question...
"I don't think so... I am a vampire... Why would there be a hybrid child?"
"A hybrid child can only happen if the parents are from different races. Although my Mate was once human, she is now a vampire. We're both vampires and there will be no possibilities of a hybrid child when both parents are the same race." His Grace answered for you, clearing your confusion and doubt. 
His Grace's eyes turned to you.
"Besides, it doesn't matter. As long as you're the mother I would love our child unconditionally."
You chuckled and looked away to hide the smile stretching uncontrollably over your lips.
I know Mr. Gojo will not be happy with what I am about to say, but... I can't wait for you to get married, have children, and especially a daughter... diabolical laughter Yes, you understood! A love story with the dark-eyed crown prince and the little blue-eyed Gojo princess EHEHEHEHEHE!
"No. Some stupid dark-eyed prince will not easily snag my daughter away unless he passes through my sword." His Grace's eyes turned dark as he spoke the ominous words with an unamused sinister smile.
"Calm down Your Grace, the journalist is merely jesting you." You reminded him, shaping him out of the urge to kill any crown prince who dares to touch his potential little daughter.
One last question, this one concerns Madame. It has been noticed that among vampires, you are... weaker than the norm? For example, you have smaller fangs than other vampires (that's too cute). My question is: is it because you were human before? Or is it something unique and inexplicable? I'm sorry for these questions that may seem silly to you, but I'm not really well-informed about vampires. As you may have noticed, I'm just... a little fairy (just a Winx for today ahah).
His Grace crossed his arms and a dark expression covered his smirking face. His Grace's face was as dark as a monster and an irk mark formed on his temples. A cold air filled the room, you could almost feel winter solstice with the blizzard gust in the room from your mate's display of annoyance. However, a thin layer of spell protected you from the cold, keeping you perfectly fine while His Grace is being moody.
"My mate is weak? Who said that?! Who told you about my Mate's fangs? Who? I will slice him to pieces. Who dares to stare at my mate's fangs too long to notice that detail? Is it a male? Does he dare to stare at my mate that long? I will pull his fangs mysel—"
Fortunately, you were quick to hold your mate back and drag him to sit on the couch.
"My apologies about my dear beloved. He's a little moody after the tea." You chuckled awkwardly. "Most probably that's a factor and my gift as a vampire has not yet manifested. You could say that as a vampire I'm still in my pre-teen stage so some areas of my vampire senses and attributes are still developing."
After the little bravado from the irritated and possessive Grand Duke, it doesn't come as a surprise that the journalist is quick to reach the door and escape if worse comes to worse...
I leave here alive and with plenty of information, thank you for everything! Invite me to the wedding, and I will write a great article! It will sell like hotcakes. Take care.
"Oh! Take care... Feel free to come and have tea with me..." You softly said since the journalist already fled away from Satoru. You turned your back to face your mate with a frown.
"Well that was uncalle—mhmph!"
Soft lips aggressively captured yours effectively shutting any words of reprimand.
"S-Sator—ngh!" You gasped as he kissed you deeper, his tongue finding your little fangs and tracing them sensually, stroking them as he moaned from the friction.
"I'm hungry..." He groans between your kisses, wildly pulling on the lace of your corset to free your soft bosom from its confines and trail down neck kisses, sucking on your skin every so hardly and sweetly making sure he leaves a pinkish love bite on your skin.
"We just had tea and biscuits..." You bit your lips when he easily carried you to the nearest couch and laid you there. His hand brought one of your thighs up, pressing kisses from your ankles down to your inner legs where he bared his pointy fangs against your milky flesh.
"I forgot how cute your fangs are... care to show me?"

What is exactly Sukuna’s role in Laluna ? He appeared in one of the chapters but I’m afraid I don’t really understand why he is there 😅
you don’t need to explain if you don’t want to
Cursedtales Collections—La Luna Chapters: {Storm}
—Vampire Gojo Satoru X Reader X Lycan Sukuna
Tumblr media
Heat, fire, the scorching firewood burning in the fireplace. Life seems suspended as the embers of the hearth crackled and fluttered around the air.
A man sat by the window, his knee propped whilst he languidly amused himself by smoking his long pipe. The tobacco swirled a mixture of intoxicating mint to calm the heat inside his body.
It seems as if all that life has given to him is the excruciating neverending heat. For a creature like him who lives in the somber dark side, it is a strange thing to have a furnace-like body, always exuding heat.
"Sukuna?"
The heady scent of night-blooming jasmines filled the room, overpowering the intoxicating tobacco.
A woman dressed in silver ice silk like the moon, covered in rosy ermine fur to keep her warm looked inside the room and locked eyes with his ruby orbs.
"I've been looking for you..." She sighed and closed the door.
Her soft gait didn't make a sound as she walks over to his side. Her cold hands found their place on his shoulder. It immediately spread a sense of relief to his body. Like an oasis in the desert. Her touch calms the beast inside him... Like a balm to a wound. Like ice to the fire.
"What do you need?" He gruffly replied and blew a cloud of smoke in the air. He looked up to her waiting for an answer.
Her nose scrunched from the scent of the tobacco leaves and waited for the smoke to disperse before speaking once more.
"The warden of Phyrria requests your audience." The woman took one step back from the scent of his tobacco.
He sighs and pours out the small ember inside the pipe, staving off the smoke, and hung his pipe on its handler.
"Since when did my mate become a messenger for those fools? Hmmm?" Sukuna took two strides to close the distance between the two of them. The pelt covering the massive expanse of his colossal body dropped revealing the daunting tattoos etched on his skin, lining the ridges of his muscular scarred body.
His nose found a place on the crook of her neck, his two huge palms holding her slender neck as he traces her throat with his nose whilst inhaling her night jasmine scent. His eyes are hazy as he licks her collarbone, scenting her with his musk. "Since when did my goddess become a tool to make me play along with those stooges? Hmmm?"
"I am n-not. Sukuna, c-cease this." She breathes and held her chin high. "You are inviting but danger and enemy with this behavior."
But Sukuna did not stop and instead traveled all the way up to the shell of her nose, biting the lobe of her ear with a husky chuckle as she bites her lips to suppress him from getting any reaction.
"Of what behavior, My Lady?"
The woman is unfazed by his touch and simply pulls his hand away from her. Her eyes look at him with a profound look of mixed emotions.
"Everyone will not follow a king just because he is king. The people will only follow the King whom they love. Not just your brethren but also the seven races."
He clicks his tongue and lets go of her.
"Who needs love? Love is easily swayed. Fear is the real power behind a ruler." He growled and turned his back on her. "I will be King one day, and all of them shall learn to love and fear me as it should be."
The night is cold and so is the moon.
For a goddess isolated from the warmth of life with only the darkness as a companion, it is not a strange thing for your lonely heart to blossom with joy after finding out you will have a mate. The promise of eternity and devotion.
To love and be loved...
But what happens when that love promises chaos?
"Faltered seven high towers
Crimson soaked the loom
Refuge of towers regard
The other half of the moon."
The night owl hoots from a distance. The wind is cold. You slowly closed the curtain and walk towards Sukuna's side of bed. His arrogant face is replaced with a tranquil one as he sleeps. You covered him with the soft ermine blanket and blew out the candle.
A storm is brewing.

Cursedtales Collections—La Luna Chapters: {Clarity}
—Vampire Duke Gojo Satoru X Vampire Reader
Tumblr media
❦︎ Précis:
"Patience," he whispered in hot breath on the hollow of your throat. Nosing his way through your sharp jaw down to the soft valley of your bosom, the orange blossom scent naturally emitting from your body adds to the insidious craving Satoru harbored for you.
Your lustrous eyes stare at his soul. Parted lips of yours, begging to be kissed are no help to his sanity. 
He would live, die and live again to feel you as close as this.
❦︎ Genre: vampire, fantasy, royalty
❦︎ CW/TW: (2.5k)—blood sucking/feeding, teasing, implied violence—not to the reader, vampire traditions, praises, kissing, biting, duke gojo's inner thoughts, soft duke gojo,
❦︎ A/N: imma surface from my den for~ a happy 33rd birthday to 'Toru!♡ Clarity by Zedd ft. Foxes was my inspiration while writing this.
Tumblr media
Satoru would seldom call himself a savage. Even with bloodlust constantly flowing within his system he is not a man driven by instinct except for instances his reins slip out of his rationality. Running through his veins—the most potent blood lineage in the houses of vampires. His craving for blood is much more intensely felt than common noble vampires.
It's like threading a cliff where you can't see the abyss beneath your feet. The days of barring restraint against his nature to feed off from blood have been the cloudiest period of his existence, dripping in ink of black.
Until you...
Whimpers of pleasure filled the room with the fragile body trapped beneath him. Futile squirming and ragged moaning underneath his hovering build. His hand firmly grasp the curves of your waist and the other pined your wrist above your head as he preyed on you. Taking in the heaving of your chest and writhing of your legs, trying to rub friction between your appendages in hopeless aspiration of satisfying yourself from his lack of touch.
"Y-Your Grace." You stuttered, inciting pity from Satoru as your arms encircle his slender nape. Beads of tears trickled down your face contorting between pleasure and pain. Needy whines as his lips trail little too soft kisses on your shoulder blade traveling to the lines of your neck.
It is dizzying how you smell so sweet and appetizing yet at the same time, Satoru is restraining himself from manhandling you while playing this little tug of war with you. 
The way you eagerly bare your fangs and puncture his neck with those adorable canines of yours. A little too small for a vampire, but the sweetest and the closest thing to an aphrodisiac whenever you suck unto his neck. Your mark, engraved to his very soul, constantly seeking for your presence to caress despite his blood-drenched claws that never bothered you.
You've always seen past the cold exterior he puts on with those tender eyes of yours that holds his universe together.
"Patience," he whispered in hot breath on the hollow of your throat. Nosing his way through your sharp jaw down to the soft valley of your bosom, the orange blossom scent naturally emitting from your body adds to the insidious craving Satoru harbored for you.
Your lustrous eyes stare at his soul. Parted lips of yours, begging to be kissed are no help to his sanity. 
He would live, die and live again to feel you as close as this.
Tugging apart the belt of your dress. A long tearing tune of fabric filled the room as he messily pulled up the skirt revealing your velvety thighs.
"You ripped my skirt," you huffed with halfhearted accusation at the long tear on the dress, mesh of threads scattered over the bed.
"You tore my tunic Kitten, it is only fair that I rip yours as well." An ounce of amusement laced with cheekiness in his tone. Satoru's fingers twirled over your tickling skin. Two bite marks left by his previous feeding faintly paint your milky legs.
You cutely whimpered, tugging his heart to relieve your needs. It's almost by nature that he will bend anything for you. Far too besotted to deprive you of your desires.
A hand brought the back of your knees up placing them on His Grace's shoulder and abruptly a piercing pain sink into your inner thighs making you arch in pain mixed with venom of pleasure.
"My—ahhh! Your Grace," you salaciously moaned at the way his tongue swirled over your milky legs making sure you feel the sinuous throbbing of desire in his fangs.
You hold his heart, body, and soul in your hands.
"Your Highness, your father has just passed away. You cannot hold a wedding until the three years of mourning have passed."
One of his father's loyal vassals refuted. The room instantly dropped, so cold that even with their thick fur coat the chill seeped into the fibers of their nerves.
He knows that. Satoru knows that very well. No ostentatious celebration shall be done after three years of a family member's death. It's the law. And that's the only reason the vassal's head is still intact on his neck.
However, having you walk around without a title to protect you envelopes him in constant apprehension whenever he's away. 
A knock interrupted the meeting. The door creaked open. Like eggs, Yuta's head came out followed by your head popping up with a bright smile in the room of confused men.
The entire room fell silent. All eyes looked at your crouching figure trying to hide in the door frame.
"What's the matter?" Satoru asked calmly.
Yuta looked skeptical to speak. It took him two rehearsals in his brain before he could formulate an adequate reply. As if finally gathering his guts, he cleared his throat.
"Her Ladyship has asked if the gentlemen would like some tea..."
"And biscuits," you whispered.
"...and biscuits?" Yuta look at his Uncle with a begging cry in his eyes, helpless by this obligation he was forced to play.
"..."
The room went silent as if a black crow passed over their heads.
Satoru remained unmoving. Looking at your head slightly peeking from the doorway. Hopeful innocent eyes who are not aware of what she has just done.
In the next minutes, trays of biscuits and pots of tea went around the table.
Some choked and most look constipated having to dine with the Grand Duke who simply watch them with hawk-like eyes. Waiting for anyone to make one wrong comment and one wrong move to throw them out the window.
And yet there was nothing to criticize. The hospitality of Her Ladyship was on point. The cookies are perfect for black tea. But the presence of the Grand Duke simply clouded the amazing tea time. So much if you listen closely you could hear the cup shaking and a bit of tea spilling.
Who wouldn't when His Grace is eyeing them one by one? Arms crossed and unmoved by the flattering words they spoke about the Lady. At this point it was better if they shut their traps and drink so this little stunt could be done with and so is the assembly. Everyone inside is dying for this to end and hole themselves up in the study of their homes and dread the next fortnight they have to hold this assembly with the Grand Duke.
"Leave when you're done."
Satoru left the room with his tray of tea and biscuits like a whirlwind.
Only then did their hunched shoulders relax down and finally, appreciate the taste of the aromatic tea. But it didn't last long as Yuta ushered confused and relieved gentlemen out. 
"Where is His Highness going?"
"I believe he's on his way to have tea with Her Ladyship. Have a good afternoon gentlemen." Yuta replied with a polite smile.
The gates of the ducal residence closed on their faces before any of the vassals could speak. And just like that, they were politely thrown out of the palace.
"Since when did His Highness love drinking tea?"
One of the elder men shook his head. Patting the shoulders of the younger vassal who surely hasn't tasted the forbidden fruit of knowledge yet.
"It's not the tea, boy. It's the one who made the tea."
Lately, you've been interested in teas and snacks. The Grand Duchy of Albastru stretches from the east to the west of the continent. It's so vast that it is said you could find anything in Albastru. Because of that the variety of teas the ducal palace acquires from the merchant and has not been used staggered you. Yuta told you the late Grand Duke and Grand Duchess loved drinking tea, and so was the collection of premium teas in the pantry. But His Grace is not fond of the bitter taste. Often opting for hot cocoa instead.
Uncanny, you must say, and... lovely. You internally chuckled at the image of His Grace offering you his cup of cocoa on cold rainy afternoons.
"But I thought you dislike tea, Your Grace?" You raise a brow at the man sitting in front of you. Stoically and elegantly sipping the black tea.
"Since when have I said that?" He shrugged and took a bite of the butter cookies you made.
The shameless old man knows no limit just to plunder whatever your hand personally made. It's annoyingly adorable.
"So... You're not mad anymore Your Grace?" You softly asked, testing the waters.
"Mad? For what?"
Ah, so the old man's brooding has been appeased now...
You hide the budding smile on your lips and shake your head.
"Nothing Your Grace." In a singsong voice, you giggled.
The two of you ate in silence. Although feeding on blood is the best thing to satiate a vampire's hunger. Eating normal food is also considered a snack. Especially for you who was once a human.
Satoru watches you happily eat. His heart swells in pride seeing you put on some weight, your cheek fuller. Your starved figure when he first found you stirred fury, helplessness, and pain inside him. You look so broken that you would shatter if he applies sudden force in his hand.
When you were human, you lived on a cold mountain, all day of the year it was all snow you've ever seen, the rest of it is still a chilly summer, with barely anything food but berries and wild fruits. He wonders, how did you survive starvation and the deadly cold?
Now that you're a vampire, it is still cold. But you shall never starve, but only have the finest dishes and quality of blood. You shall never freeze, but don the thickest pelt of animal fur, and a soft chair beside the hearth. You shall have enough space to grow and enjoy what you never thought of having in your life.
He will be your home. You'll never suffer any aggrievance in your life but only the best thing this land could offer.
Perhaps coldness will be ever a part of his life. The strange prickly tinge of harsh ice. Or the chilly breeze that blows away the burning rays of heat. Engrave in his soul, the coldness that he will seek no matter where he ends up in this eternity as long as it's with you.
"—Grace?"
A gentle hand cup his cheeks bringing Satoru into the present. Your worried eyes stared at him.
"What is it?"
"Oh—" you pulled back and gingerly laugh. "—You were spacing out."
"I wasn't."
Your lips pursed at his denial.
"Liar." You muttered under your breath and looked away at the blooming blue roses bushes.
Satoru frowned at the remark and pushed his chair backward, opening a space for his legs to part. Languid hand, pat his thigh while looking at you to make a move. An invitation that you've gotten accustomed to and look forward to when it's just the two of you. An invitation he has grown fond of, almost as if it's his instinct to have your weight pressed and close to him.
"I was thinking—" You started. Arms wrapped loosely around his neck whilst your nose found a place under the space of Satoru's ear, nuzzling the edge of his jaw. "—How vast Albastu truly is. Just imagining it staggers me"
Satoru stayed silent. His hand held your waist and the other rest over your knee. Kneading your thigh as you slowly lean your weight fully against him. Your head found space on the crook of his neck, fanning him with your soft breath.
"It's the first and strongest wall against the Lycans." The Emperor needed a soldier and a noble to bind and hold this land together
Satoru is the fruition of the Emperor's ambition. The rest is restrained in his throat, that's a story unsuited for a quiet afternoon tea.
And Satoru would rather sew his mouth shut than tell the burden. You just have to live comfortably, idle if you wish. A life where you are happy is his yearning for this eternity.
The leaves of the tree rustled at the gust of wind. Instinctively Satoru pushes you further into his arms, shielding you from the cold. You don't seem to mind, as you snuggle close, pressing your lips on his throat and nuzzling with your nose where his heartbeat would've pulsed. A searing trickle of anticipation ran down Satoru's veins.
"Behave." Satoru lazily drawled. Pushing a finger above your lips to reprimand you.
But there's always that little devil with her pitchfork in you that wins whenever he warns you.
Baring your fangs, you captured his finger, running your tongue for a small lick over the taste of sugar from the cinnamon roll he had, then sink into your bite.
Sweeping down, Satoru's lips find your temples for a tender kiss, pouring his silent indulgence and affection as you suckle droplets of his blood. Your tongue is hot and tickling him to a groaning mess, spreading warmth over his body.
"Haven't I fed you enough last night Kitten?" Satoru grunted, nudging your head, biting your earlobe making you whine and gasp while sucking on his finger.
It's almost too much, how your whines and moans slide through his ears like warm honey, crystal clear of your need and temptation, sending shivers down his spine, making it harder for Satoru to pull away from your fangs.
"I simply want to bite you. Is there something wrong with it Your Grace?" Your lips pursed, but the twinkle in your eyes tug upon Satoru's heart.
How could he ever turn you down when you look at him like this? Your hand clutched onto his clothes and perched on his lap.
"Indeed, nothing is wrong with it." Satoru sighed in defeat. Tilting his neck to the side in offering to your adorable sweet fangs.
"Hmmm." You giggle. Sated and happy as you wrap your arms around his neck. Pleased at his pliant offer even without your demand. Placing one soft kiss on his neck in delight instead.
"When you are tired, you can always come home." You held his cheeks, searching for his sapphire eyes. A soft smile blossom on your lips. Your thumb ran through the apple of his cheeks, lulling him to comfort. "You must come home to me Your Grace."
Satoru's hand grip your hip and tilt your chin up for a soft kiss.
"Indeed—" In his eyes, flashed a deliberate softness reserved in privacy, only for you. "—You are my home."
In his darkest insanity, you're the remedy he found, what he once thought to be a damned eternity, you're his piece of clarity.

The interview was very interesting, I really enjoy learning about fantastical worlds! 🥰
So if I understood correctly, it is possible to mark someone forcibly? Like the Grand Duke said, "Who else would dare?"
How does one mark their companion?
Hi dearrrr~ I'm glad you liked it!
Nope, it's impossible to have a mate mark (permanent and with vivid symbolism ex: roses, moon, etc) with someone you aren't fated with. It only appears to those who are true mates; a bond determined by a deep magic.
But yes, it is possible to mark someone (temporary and plain, just two punctured holes on the bitten spot). This kind of mark is something that has to be done/be bitten on a time-to-time basis because it can fade away.
Both can have the same attributes aka shared senses, mind link, and blood but only those with a mate mark are the true mates. Forcibly marking someone more often than not leads to a tragic ending since in most cases they are not true mates. Y/n didn't force Duke Satoru, he meant that no one would dare mark him if he didn't willingly submit to it.
There's no intricate marking ritual, but verbal consent is necessary to acknowledge the marking which is only applicable to mate marks.
I hope I explained it clearly enough, HUHUHUHU— again LaLuna Chapters may have a different culture and practices than the usual vampire tropes so cultures and traditions in this series vary a bit differently than normal expectations.
Again, thank you for asking!!!

"Trick or Treat?" You crouched down with the chamberkeepers who were busy doing jobs.
"M-My Lady, please, let me get you a chair. No need to crouch down. The soot might get onto you." One of the maids was alarmed seeing you crouch down with them and possibly hurting yourself in any way possible. Who knows if the Master is in a lousy mood and fired them because you got hurt in any way possible? The eldest maid sighed.
"I'm fine, anyway. What's a trick or treat?" You stopped her. Satoru's overprotectiveness of you seems to have rubbed into everyone in the Ducal Palace.
"Oh, it's a human tradition, where kids go around with a basket, asking people..." The younger maid explained to you, and everyone else seems to know such a thing except you, who was once a human.
So here you are, holding a basket, walking over to a particular room at the far end of the East Wing.
It's a strange concept for you. As far as memory goes, you have never left the snowy mountains, and the sight of other humans that wandered through the vast plains of snow is tragically zero until Satoru came. As for His Grace, the chamber keepers already told you he has never once shown interest in such festivities, even when he was a child, so it's unlikely for him even to know such human traditions.
That's quite something Satoru would do. You thought. You can imagine some kid approaching him exclaiming a trick or treat, only to be shot down by his icy glare. You covered your mouth as you chuckled. Indeed, that's something that will happen. However, you're curious about his reaction if it was you.
You knocked, a single and double tune which you have grown accustomed to, and almost everyone knows that tune of knock can only be from you.
You tried to knock a second time, but the door opened, and before you could speak, you were drawn into a tight embrace. A soft sigh lingered in your neck as an arm wrapped around your waist. Perhaps minutes passed or a few more until he spoke.
"Everyone seems to be busy and making a lot of noise. It's making my ears hurt." Satoru pulled you into his office and closed the door. His eyes surveyed you, and you couldn't miss the slight raise of his brow when his eyes landed on the basket in your hand.
"Trick or Treat!" You exclaimed before your mate could speak and pushed the basket towards him.
A poignant pause passed. You couldn't see his reaction because, for some reason, you don't know you closed your eyes.
"... Well, aren't you supposed to open your eyes?"
You looked up to Satoru, a bit embarrassed as you sheepishly laughed and brought the basket back, clutched to your chest. Gosh, you should've known better than to—
You felt the basket sink a little. Satoru retracted his hands and hummed.
"Why did you take the basket back?" He asks.
Inside the basket is a pack of cookies, oddly shaped like a kitten...
You looked up to him in surprise. His Grace shrugged and softly pushed your shoulders to direct you to the couch.
"What's with the surprised face, Kitten?" Satoru chuckles. "Afraid to eat the cookies?"
He's just teasing you. He sat across you, putting the pack of cookies on your palm while taking away the basket and setting it on the table. His hand took your feet, removing your shoes while softly massaging your ankles on his lap.
"So you actually know what a Trick or Treat is, Your Grace."
His Grace incredulously snorted at the remark. He raises a brow at you.
"Do I look that old not to know such childish pranks?"
"Well, you are old!" You giggled as you tried the cookies that tasted divine. Small chirps of delight fluttered from your lips as you made sure not to waste a crumb.
Unfortunately for you, you missed the dangerous glint from His Grace's eyes at the way you bite on that cookie and the way you are unconsciously making those heavenly sighs and munching.
"Oomph!"
The next thing you know is that you're pinned down on the couch. Your mate's breath lingered over your neck while his hand slowly bunched your skirt up to your waist, revealing your supple thighs to his glowing eyes.
"You got your cookie. Now I want mine." He drops a butterfly-soft kiss on the hollow of your collarbone before traveling down to your thighs.
"W-Wait! That's not a cookie!" How could you not ever learn? You gasp, feeling the way his bared fangs drag across your sensitive inner thighs, teasing you with the tingling sensation. Satoru removed his gloves so he could caress the back of your legs, kneading your full, velvety thighs as he nipped and sucked on them until you writhed underneath his touch.
Satoru chuckled and kissed the bite mark from last night that had yet to disappear.
"You are sweeter than any candy..."
"Ngh!"
His sharp fangs sink into your inner thighs. It was mind-numbing how his tongue lapped up any trickle of blood that tried to escape from him. He moaned at how sweet and full your blood tasted on his palate, filling in his greedy thirst as he kept sucking and lapping up in your thighs. The gasps and moans you added were more than enough to entice him even more in teasing you with his soft kisses between his licks.
Through your half-lidded eyes, you could see the grin on His Grace's lips as he licked the last of your blood. His bite mark closed up, leaving but two faint marks of his fangs to remind you how he just enjoyed his treat.
His Grace wipes the droplet of your blood from the corner of his lips and sucks on it one last time before pulling up his clothes, exposing to you his glorious body, rigid muscles, and enticing veins tracing his body hardened by battle scars like art. His thumb softly brushed through your cheeks as you panted sweetly underneath him. He can't help but chuckle and kiss the tip of your nose in silent adoration. His arms flex as he cajoles your tired body to sit on top of his lap.
"C'mere, Kitten, I'll feed you something sweeter."
Needless to say, His Grace has a different kind of Trick or Treat tradition engraved in his mind. Consequently, the chamber keepers got a generous raise after that Halloween season...
