167 167 Private Getaway for Four

"I know Sweetie. You know a bit about it already, you got back that memory already." Cedric lifted her off the couch and laid her back down. He went to the kitchen and picked up the sunblock. He came back and started covering up her sensitive white jade-like skin.

"Oh, that is right. I was covered in runes when I was little. I am the earth element bearer and I have the powers over all earth supernaturals or I am at least connected to them." Yuki lets the words flow from her mouth.

"Yes, you are beginning to understand everything. You will need to feed from Claude again. Although if you really want essence I will give you mine. It will not be as sustainable as the earth but it will tide you over." Cedric finished covering her legs and he smiled.

"I have heard you say those exact words in the past. I'm surprised that you are allowing me the opportunity to drink yours. Are you allowed to answer if it will have any bad side effects on me? I know that usually, it is a bad idea for you to tell me everything that I want to know. I will understand if you are unable to tell me this though. As you have not been able to tell me other things." Yuki sat up and waited.

Cedric climbed in behind her back and started adding cream for her visible areas in the front. "You are allowed to know some things. You can take the essence from other bearers but that will weaken them. I only got my partner. It will put some strain on her but if you need it I will give it to you. I have never been blocked from my powers but yours were sealed. I might not have memories of our time together but my runes have been there so I knew about them."

"Thank you, Cedric. I know that it must not be easy to weave in and out of the information. I think that I will be okay. I do not want to put unnecessary strain on Sephira, besides those two will be here soon enough." Yuki leaned back in his embrace.

Cedric's hands slide up under her top still spreading lotion around and he lightly squeezes her breasts. "If you say that you are okay then I will leave it be." He spreads the lotion over her breasts.

"I don't need lotion on... my breasts." Yuki starts blushing and sighs form his touch.

"Contrary to what you might believe you do need it my sweet. If the sun so much as touches some exposed skin you risk getting injured." Cedric pulls his hands out from underneath the top. He grabs more lotion and spreads it on her chest. "I will not allow the sun to hurt my fiance."

Yuki smiles and lets Cedric do as he pleases. "Okay, I understand. So back to the runes Do you know how many are on the body?"

"How many? I have never counted but I can show you if you are curious?" Cedric finished applying the lotion and hugged her.

"I can see yours? Will that be against the memories or is it safe?" Yuki perks up in the excitement and waits to see if she would really be okay seeing the runes.

"I am not sure but my runes are different yet the same as yours." Cedric gets off the couch and holds out his hand in front of Yuki's face and he projects the yellow rune. "What do you think?"

"That is so pretty. I love that rune. Is it hard to project? Wait, I think that is something you will not be able to answer." Yuki reaches out and traces over the rune but does not touch it directly.

"You're right I am unable to answer it but all your questions will be answered over the next few days." Cedric smiled and watched as she traced the rune.

Claude walked in the doorway and froze, "Cedric… are you forcing the memories to return?"

"No, I would not do that. She had a vial that contained the memories of the runes. Some questions can be answered but any that I couldn't I said that she would need the memory to return." Cedric made the rune disappear and turned to Claude and Sephira. "Welcome to my getaway."

Sephira looked out from behind Claude and ran over to Yuki. "I missed you, Yuki." Sephira gives Yuki a hug.

"I missed you too but it was only a few days. I am glad that you are doing well." Yuki hugged Sephira back. "You are feeling a little odd aren't you?"

"Huh? Oh, yes but how did you know?" Sephira looked at Yuki and was confused at how Yuki knew.

"It is because she is a bearer and you are a guardian but that is something that will get explained at some point in time. I can feel the surge in excess essence inside of you. I will ease the pressure." Cedric took the knife that was at Sephira's side and cut into her wrist and drank the essence.

The yellow liquid poured out and Sephira started to feel normal. "Wow, so this is what it feels like." She let out the breath that she had been holding.

Cedric stopped drinking and healed the wound. "Thank you for your service. I know that it is going to take some time to adjust but we will all get over that at some point."

Claude sat down next to Yuki and patted her head. "Little sis, how are you doing? I know that you will not crave the essence until all the memories of it return but remember I am your guardian and when you need the essence you can take it from me."

Yuki was sitting there watching until her vision went black.

A smaller version of her was on the bed and she was withering in pain. A maid brought her a glass of blood and the girl hit the glass out of the maid's hand. "GET OUT! DO NOT COME BACK IN HERE!" She held onto the sheets and her eyes flashed a deadly red colour.
