Helpless (Koishite Akuma)

How many more times was he going to have to do this? Kaito wondered as he once again swooped down to lift Ruka into his arms. The boy was unconscious – his body weakening more and more as the moon continued waxing. If he did not drink human blood before the moon was full, he would die. There was very little time left.

Stupid, stupid boy! All of this needless suffering because he couldn't bring himself to bite his destined woman, even though she would probably welcome it. After all, she was already in her mid-twenties, not getting any younger, while Ruka still looked the same as when they dated in high school ten years earlier. She'd have to be stupid herself not to accept the opportunity. If only he would offer it!

Kaito travelled home with Ruka, dissolving then reforming back in his own room. He lay the boy down and touched his hair with a sigh that was part frustration and part regret. Had he made this fledgling vampire just to see him slowly commit suicide over useless emotion? No.

But there didn't seem to be anything he could do to stop it.
