135 135 Memories Without the Vial 1

"Drink the colour... How?" Yuki looked at Rex confused, "Who are you?"

"I will guide you through the process. You might have been able to drink it in the past. You will gain those memories back. I will not say anything that will get us in trouble. I will guide you no matter who you choose." Rex thought for a moment, "I am Rex. I know that it is hard to explain everything. I am a supernatural that you know. I have always called you little devil."

"I see, then what is the best option for me to drink? I know that you carried Cedric here then that must mean he is not in the best state to be giving me what I need and you were probably the one that gave him your essence. It seems like the only option is to call my guardian but how?" Yuki looked at Rex and was confused on what she should do.

"Claude, is your guardian. Come and we will go to the kitchen together. It will be better for his mate to see why he has to serve you." Rex got up and walked to the door.

Yuki kissed Cedric's cheek before leaving the room. She had the sight up and could see the magic running through the house and she looked at Rex. She saw the deepest shade of purple. Yuki reached out and touched the purple hue around Rex and she felt the thirst start to hit her.

Claude was sitting at the table and he felt the thirst. 'That is something that I haven't felt in a while.' He got up and kissed Sephira. "Sephira, There is one thing you need to know. I am bound to Yuki as her guardian and when she needs essence I am the one that gives it to her. I know that it is hard to take in but it is my job."

"Essence, that is the purple liquid that Cedric drank from Rex. What colour is yours? That is if you can talk about it." Sephira knew that it was not always possible to talk about deep secrets like this.

Yuki walked into the room and her eyes narrowed in on Claude. "Green, it is green and I do not know if I can hold back my thirst for it."

Claude kissed Sephira and walked over to Yuki. He pulled out a knife that had a green pattern on the blade. He sliced his arm and held it out for Yuki. "It has been a very long time since I was able to feel this thirst from you. You must be starving."

Sephira watched and sat down. "Yuki, I trust you. I know that you will not kill Claude."

Yuki nodded her head and licked the green essence that was flowing from the wound he created. Yuki started to drink the essence and after a few minutes she stopped and licked the wound. "Sephira is part of Cedric's clan." She sat on the ground and refused to move.

Claude got up and went to Sephira. "I am fine. The big thing with guardians is that we produce the essence in abundance. She will need more as it has been almost two hundred years since her last feeding." Claude sat down next to Sephira. "Does it make you angry?"

Sephira shook her head. "I do not have the right to be angry about something that happened so long ago. It is not like you had much of a choice at that time besides the three of you were really close back in the day or at least that is the vibe that I got. I am new to the circle of friendship.

Yuki sat there on the ground and remembered more of the past but this was unconnected to Cedric.

~Past Memory~

"Claude, what do you think that Mother and Father would like to see us about? It is unusual for them to call us out so unannounced." Yuki was only ten at this point in time.

"Well little princess, there are a lot of things that it could involve. So I am not actually sure." Claude looked down at Yuki and patted her head. "But if I had to guess it would be the green runes that hit you yesterday."

"They are so pretty though." Yuki giggled and jumped while holding Claude's hand.

Claude smiled and opened the door. "Mother, Father, we are here now. What is it that you needed to see us about?" Claude looked at the two sitting on the couch and a gruff man sitting across from them.

"Thank you for bringing Yuki, Claude. I was worried that you would refuse." Luna looked at Ryan and then at Claude sadly.

The gentleman stood up and walked to the girl he bent down and looked into her eyes. "Little devil, you have been blessed and cursed at the same time. You will need a person that will guard you for the rest of their live. Is there anyone that you trust that you would not choose as a life partner?"

"I am not a little devil." Yuki pouts and listens to what Rex was saying. "If I had to choose then it would be Big Brother. We are family and he already protects me from harm's way." Yuki looked up at Claude then over to her parents. Confused still at what was going on.

Rex patted Yuki's head then turned to Ryan and Luna. "It will work if you tie those two together for this. Him becoming her guardian is a good idea. He will not be able to become her intended but I get that was never a part of the plan. Little devil, I am Rex and I will be your guidance teacher of the runes. Claude you will need to think about this carefully. Becoming a guardian is not something that can be taken lightly and it is different from being a life partner. She will drink from you but not as a vampire but as a bearer of the runes."
