Unpredictable ~ Chapter 23.

-Y/N's POV-
My eyes fluttered open as I awoke to the sound of a silvery voice singing.
My head rested upon someone's thighs; a girl's to be exact and the person was playing with my hair.

"Mito?" I muttered, lazily,

"Ah, Y/N, don't tell me you've forgotten me?" I shot up at the gentle voice,

"MAHIRU?" I stared at her face, which was framed by her ashen hair,

She smiled as my eyes began to well up with tears, "I thought you were dead," I embraced her as the tears began to fell,

"I'm sorry I disappeared so suddenly, don't cry, Y/N I'm here now." She wiped the fallen tears,

"Were have you been?" I sniffled,

"Never mind that. I have been watching over you despite my absence." She moved my obstructing strands of hair away from my face, "Oh, you poor thing." Her fingers lightly traced the bruise on my cheek left by the assault from the vampire.

"It's fine." I said taking her hand in mine, "Anyway, what did you mean by you've been watching over me?"

"Ah, I see you've met Guren. My dear Guren." She sighed,

I looked at her confused, as her hand came up to cup my face, "Never would I have thought that the dear, innocent, Y/N I took care of would take my Guren."

"Mahiru no-"

"Well, what did I expect from greedy humans anyway?"

"I didn't mean to, Mahiru." The tears began to fall, I felt so vulnerable. I'd disappointed the person who cared about me so much, I'd taken her boyfriend.

"Did Shinya not tell you?" She pursued,

"H-he did." I looked down at my lap guiltily and began to fidget,

"Then how did you not mean to, Y/N? Does that make sense to you?"

"I'm so sorry, Mahiru. I'm such a horrible person."

"You're human, Y/N."

"Please forgive me, Mahiru."

"How can I forgive you for stealing someone I love?" She said bluntly,

"I-" I felt a pang of guilt hit me,

"Ah, that was harsh of me. There is something you can do though."

I looked up to find her move my hair away from my neck,

She looked satisfied, "Hm, I'm sure this'll suffice."

Her head drew closer to my neck,

"Mahiru, wait..." my eyes squeezed shut,

As I felt her sharp teeth pierce my neck, I remembered the Mahiru from before; she was kind, forgiving, expected nothing in return-

"You're not Mahiru are you?" I opened my eyes to find a new person, who's teeth had sunken into my neck.

She had long blonde hair which cascade down her shoulders like waves and golden eyes, her skin was fair and seemed to radiate. She was mature yet had a youthful feel about her.

She chuckled before backing away and using the back of her hand to wipe away my blood from her lips.

"Of course not, foolish human. I never knew a black demon series owner is this easy to possess." She laughed hysterically,

"You can't! D/N?" I called for my demon but it was no use.

"It's far too late for that. Thank you for the meal, Y/N L/N."
