654 Misunderstanding after the other
*Pho!* “Vincent Vincent! The head is burning smoke!” Plow warned.
Vincent felt his fingers being caressed by something soft and delicate. It felt similar to being touched by a feather, yet lighter and more delicate at the same time.
After hearing Plow’s warning about the appearance of a shadow-like smoke from the neck area, Vincent moved his head to stop.
“Huh?” Vincent couldn’t remove his lips from hers. He soon felt teeth biting and holding his lips in place.
The eyes opened, and unlike before, the entirety of the eyes was black. Second, after the other, the black color receded.
[Is she waking up, or is she about to eat you? As far as we know from Earth’s mythology, Dullahans a dangerous monsters. Slap the head away or something.]
-I can’t without ripping my lips off.-
“Master. Protect. Zero. Kill.” Zero extended its fingers and prepared to attack the head to protect Vincent.
Plow realized Vincent was in a pinch. *Pho, pho, pho* “Let Vincent Vincent go, you meanie head!”
.....
Vincent got up urgently. He held the head stuck on his lips with one hand while waving the other hand to stop Plow and Zero from attacking the head and possibly injuring him in the process.
“The... head... is... precious...” Vincent said slowly.
Vincent had to treat the head with care because he didn’t want to receive a wound bad enough to make his women frown.
Vincent feared his women might not let him leave alone as he was at risk of getting himself involved in trouble every time.
The Dullahan’s eyes slowly blinked after the eyes returned to normal. The eyes moved as if she was becoming aware and her vision returning.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe pale cheeks faintly showed a shade of red before the teeth released Vincent’s lips to murmur weakly, “Ahh...”
“Master. Is. Safe. Now. ” Zero retracted its fingers to their previous small size. Zero deemed the danger was over.
Plow stopped barking after watching Vincent’s lips were safe. She became interested in heading the head talk again, and her tails gently moved.
[The princess has woken up after receiving a kiss from prince charming, hehe. What a great memory to record.]
[I bet Lilith would be envious right now. I wonder if I should show her this scene one day, hehe.]
Vincent sat down on the sofa and placed the head on his lap. Plow curiously approached to see a living head without a body.
The Dullahan’s eyes moved onto Plow. The cute tiny nose was sniffing curiously. The eyes then moved onto Vincent, gazing at her from above.
The Dullahan’s eyes reacted when Vincent asked, “Can you hear me, Awa? I tried to give you warmth and change the color of your pale face. I also fed you some beneficial potions to try to save your life.”
Vincent rubbed his bitten bottom lip. He looked at the Dullahan and smiled warmly, hoping to show he was a good person.
Awa looked at Vincent. Her mind was chaotic, and her thoughts were all over the place. Her body couldn’t move. Not only that, but a human was holding her head.
Awa soon recalled hearing a male’s voice expressing, ‘The head is precious.’ A blurry and unfocused man’s face with recognizable green eyes was close enough to kiss. After putting two and two together, the human in front of her was taking advantage of her.
Her lips moved as if she tried to speak, yet no word left her mouth. She moved her gaze as if she hoped the movement of her eyes could roll her body off of Vincent’s lap.
However, a misunderstanding soon occurred.
Vincent thought Awa was parched. He didn’t know how a Dullahan’s body worked and where the potions he fed her went. Since the liquids possibly went to the body magically, Vincent thought the Dullahan needed more to drink.
A cup of water was summoned in his hand, causing the Awa to mistake the green light for an attack. She closed her eyes, and she was shortly attacked.
‘HUH!?!!’ Awa opened her eyes urgently. All she could see were a pair of unique and enchanting green eyes looking back at her.
*Gulp, gulp* Vincent fed Awa water mouth to mouth. He pulled his head back and heard Awa cough.
“Sorry for startling you, Awa. You looked like you needed a drink. I hope you are feeling better now.” Vincent warmly said while gently giving her a head pat.
Currently, Awa doesn’t have a back since her body is somewhere else. So Vincent gave her a head pat instead of a back pat.
Awa became confused by this situation. Not only the human knew her name, but he also did embarrassing things to her.
Awa could now understand she had fallen into a trap, and she had become the slave and plaything of the man in front of her.
“Vincent Vincent. The head is acting afraid. Why is head acting like this?” *Pho?*
“Don’t worry, Plow. I guess she can’t understand what is happening because of her bad condition.” Vincent smiled warmly and said in a reassuring tone, “You are safe for now.”
Vincent noticed Awa acted as if Vincent was a villain. *Sigh* After a short sigh, Vincent frowned and changed his tone to a blunt and concerned one.
“Listen here, Awa. Do you know where your body is? If your body dies in the cold, you will die too. I can’t let that happen since I invested so much in saving your life. I can’t let the five valuable potions I fed you go to waste.”
[Vincent... aren’t you being a bit too mean and blunt?]
-We do not have time to play games, Kazumi. If I can save her while playing the role of the bad guy temporally, then so be it.-
[I understand. Just don’t be too mean. I do not know how she will take it in this situation.]
“Die? Fine...” Awa responded.
“Are you sure you want to make your family continue to worry? I can try to save your life...”
“I will... not submit... to human... Dullahan... never surrender...” Awa said with a weak prideful expression.
Vincent smiled. He brushed Plow’s fur and told her, “You heard her Plow. The Dullahan spoke a sentence at last.”
*Pho, Pho* “Plow is happy to see head alive. Plow feels like a hero for finding the head. Plow will tell bad wolf how great Plow is.”
Word after the other entered Awa’s ears. She felt ignored, yet not at the same time. The human and fox acted cheerful about finding her head while not actually listening to her prideful words.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Listen to me, Awa. This is the time you need to make the ultimate decision in your life.” Vincent said in a serious tone.
Awa closed her eyes, demonstrating she wasn’t willing to submit to Vincent’s demands or threats. Her pride as a Dullahan wasn’t going to allow Awa to beg for survival.
However, to Awa’s shock, Vincent didn’t demand or threaten her. He didn’t mention slavery. He didn’t mention making her his plaything. He didn’t mention anything that would take advantage of her.
Instead, Vincent said, “Awa. Your life hangs by a thread. You are feeling better because of the potions I fed you. Their effects will not last for a long time, and I do not know when your condition will begin to worsen after the effects end.”
Vincent gave Awa a head pat. “Your state reminded me of my wife. I want to save you because of that and only that. I do not wish for anything else. I picked you up, and I will feel bad to let you die. Please let me take responsibility and save your life.”
“Plow also wants to see head feel better.” *Pho* “Plow wants to see head on body.” *Pho* Plow said while her eyes sparkled full of curiosity.
Awa didn’t know what to think at this moment. She didn’t want to submit, yet the fear of death was creeping in.
Awa didn’t want to make her parents worry, yet she wasn’t going to let the human touching her as he wanted do as he desired.
“Awa. Your body is somewhere out there in the cold. Furthermore, you do not know what happened to your body. What if your body is being eaten by wild animals?”
*Tsk, tsk, tsk* Vincent shook his head while continuing, “What if the unspeakable happened? No. I should stop thinking how horrifically disgusting it would be.”
[Hehe. Do you have a trick up your sleeve?]
-Yeah. And this is the last time I will try to help her. My emotions are finally returning to normal now that she has constantly been rejecting my help.-
[Good to know the abnormal emotions you felt were temporary.]
Plow became curious to know what the horrifically disgusting part meant.
“Vincent Vincent. Plow is a big big girl. Can Plow know what horrifically disgusting means?” *Pho?*
Awa’s ears perked up. Her eyes moved to Plow and then to Vincent. She obviously desired to know what horrifically disgusting meant.
“Are you sure, Plow? It is so scary you might not be able to sleep at night?” Vincent asked in a scary tone.
*Gulp* Both Plow and Awa gulped. After a couple of seconds, Plow gently nodded her head.
“What if instead of the body being eaten, the body is being used for other purposes?” Suggested Vincent in a sinister tone.
Plow shivered, yet she was curious to know what the other purposes were.
On the other hand, Awa misunderstood Vincent as he intended. A faint blush appeared on her face before an angered frown formed.
