Incubus' Blood Harem

[Back there outside Ceres' office]

The woman, Lydia, stood outside with curiosity and confusion about the issue because according to her the person was a woman. She could clearly remember the particular professor as a woman. Lydia had studied there and knew all the teachers of her department. It left a curiosity in her about the sudden replacement of the professor.

"The hell is this? Who is this new Professor?"

She was still figuring out what was happening because the name was totally unfamiliar. Whereas Ceres was roaming around the academy trying hard to find the woman. But due to some unusual obstruction the aura of Lydia suddenly disappeared.

She was still trying to figure out things when Lydia sensed someone's presence behind herself. A hand settled on her shoulder from behind as breath hitched. Lydia slowly turned around to see who was it and spotted Ceres standing in front of her.

"Who are you? And what are you doing in front of my office?"

Ceres raised his eyebrows and stood right in front of Lydia, with his arms crossed. He imposed his authority over her by standing like a rock wall which seemed immovable. Lydia immediately grasped her senses and smiled at him, the way he treated her indicated that Ceres was not aware of Lydia being Kayden's mate.

Her aura had already disappeared due to some unknown reason, which masked Lydia's presence within the academy. Ceres gave up and came back to his office upon trying hard to find the person. When he reached Lydia was already waiting in front of his office, it raised suspicion that maybe Lydia was the one.

However to ensure that very thing he moved closer to her and chose to intimidate Lydia into telling him the truth. Whereas the vampiress was taken aback by being caught, but that was the actual reason she became dumbfounded. Hence Lydia smiled making him frown over her audacity.

"I'm Lydia Coulter. I was looking for the admission officer to consult my enrollment ahead."

Lydia immediately generated the excuse to come there, Ceres ogled her from head to toe and questioned in a familiar tone.

"Oh, so you are Miss Coulter. I was waiting for you actually."

His eyes were fixated over her face, Ceres was trying to figure out if Lydia was the person with that aura.

Because the demonic aura vanished right after he took a turn towards the certain arcade. Thus his sole suspicion went over Lydia who was the only one standing in the corridor. Whereas Lydia pretended to stay calm and answered to him with a smile.

"Oh? Are you the new officer? Am I supposed to contact you for my enrollment?"

She was undoubtedly curious about why was he looking for her, but couldn't ask it directly to avoid any suspicion. The girl smiled at him waiting for the reply when Ceres simply nodied and gestured to her to move inside. Lydia was confident in her capabilities now that she was transformed and obtained more powers than before.

Without any hesitation she headed inside the office cabin as Ceres settled his specs and trailed behind. He closed the door and walked towards his chair while Lydia settled herself in the opposite seat. There was limited furniture in the room which was also quite a small cabin but suited for one person. Ceres looed at her closely trying to figure out her aura but all his efforts were futile as he couldn't even sense anything from her.

'Why am I even bothering myself too much with this girl? She isn't even capable of awakening her powers. I'm sure that I'm mistake about her having that kind of immense power.'

Ceres gave up on Lydia because he did not even feel the vampiric aura from her. So he simply declared her as an incapable vampire who could not even perform any higher level magic.

"So, miss Coulter, I heard you want to study further in this same institute. Is that true?"

Ceres proceeded with his duties as the professor and intended to figure out why Lydia was holding back her potential. Whereas Lydia on the other hand was ready for his questions which were mainly going to be a casual inquiry.

"Yes, sir. I want to pursue teaching stream here."

Lydia truthfully responded because she wanted to stay back in the same institution for Kayden. Since he could not enrol into some prestigious institution without sources thus Lydia intended to stay back to be with Kayden.

Ceres opened her academic record file and flipped a few pages to make sure about her capabilities. He pulled his specs down at the tip of his nose and skimmed through the file hurriedly.

"Miss Coulter, I'm unable to comprehend why would someone like you with exceptional credentials and sources would want to stay here. Mind enlightening me with your further plan?"

He became suspicious of her immediately after all she belonged to class A, and it was significant that she did not lack sources. It was odd for her not to seize brighter opportunities which could grant her access to more powers. Lydia was well aware what kind of life should would have upon getting enrolled in some higher institute.

But she was unable to prioritise all that over Kayden, thus she truthfully answered him. However Lydia did not disclose his name to Ceres casually to keep her little affair a secret. Ceres could clearly see her expressions and cheeks getting pink with the twisting of fingers in nervousness.

"Actually sir, I want to dtau back for my boyfriend. He can't get admission in any prestigious institute and I don't intend to leave him. That's why I have decided to chose him."

Ceres was impressed by her dedication towards her boyfriend, but only if Lydia knew that Kayden was fucking someone else at that moment. However Ceres did not want to meddle in her decision that much but his curiosity made him question Lydia once more. He had never seen such loyalty and dedication in a long time after that night when the former succubus Queen ran away with Jones.

"Are you sure you want to sacrifice all the opportunities for a lower class boyfriend? You have all the power at your doorsteps. Any prestigious institution can help you train and awaken your potential. Imagine the powers they can bless you with. Yet you are insisting on choosing a lower class boy over a immensely powerful opportunities?"

He wanted to see her answer to his provocation, but to his surprise Lydai simply smiled at him and nodded with confidence.

"Yes, sir. I will sacrifice everything to be with him."

Ceres was genuinely taken aback by her determination and nodded in agreement to approve her application.
