CEO's Secret Husband
|24|. Please Do It Gently

During the drive, Maribel occasionally steals a glance at Aldrich. Wondering in his heart what his job was to have a black card that even he just didn't have. Aldrich, who was looking out the window, was drowning in the hustle and bustle of the city streets at night, completely unaware of Maribel's gaze.

Setiba in the castle. Aldrich took his grocery bag and went upstairs, while Maribel went to the kitchen with another bag.

He put the green vegetables in the refrigerator with the eggs in place. Then take the meat, fish and chicken and put them in the freezer. Put the oil in place and along with other cooking ingredients while remembering the layout of the kitchen.

She never sat in the kitchen but never came to him. From his memory, he also adjusted the location of the items.

After finishing cleaning the grocery bag, he threw the plastic trash into the trash and heard footsteps entering the kitchen.

"Mr Aldrich" he said with a bright smile. His happy attitude with the presence of the man was so obvious. Makes Aldrich realize it.

"I want dinner"

"Yes?" Maribel knitted her pair of brow in confusion, "Eat night?"

What can a vampire eat? From the film alone, as they recall quite hate the aroma of garlic in cooking. Besides of...

Is not their food just blood?

"Yes, dinner"

Maribel looked at the pale-white handsome man and suddenly remembered something, "Ah, I almost forgot. Not that you're a mixed vampire" he said.

"So what do you want to eat?" Ask later. Since he couldn't cook, perhaps he would look for an excuse to take a takeout for being tired of shopping.

Aldrich took a few steps forward with an expressionless look in his eyes staring straight at the pair of beautiful brown eyes, "I want to eat..."

Maribel was surprised to find the tall body of the man already looming before him. As the man leaned over, Maribel felt so small in the place where she stood. His eyelashes squinted a little nervously as the man placed his head between his neck and chin. Then his mouth whispered right in the threshold of his ear, "You"

The deg!

Maribel squeezed her hand, her brown eyeballs enlarged and her breathing faltered for a moment as she thought about fainting, "M-eat me?"

Aldrich's thin lips grinned, "Yes"

Her heavy cold voice, so stinging to the bottom of Maribel's heart. Make him clench his hands with a feeling of impervious, "I-you mean is..I was—my blood?"

Maybe the man did not steal just any human to suck his blood or maybe not buy a blood bag as a food stock. Instead of those two things..

He hired a human servant who was also made as his blood servant?

Maribel remembered the man's words in the shopping mall, 'I don't want my waitress to be malnourished'

It is only fitting that the man does not want it. It was because he had to have a servant with enough nutrition so that he could suck his blood.

With that in mind, Maribel turned her head a little high up and handed her slender neck to the man to bite, "But do it gently, I'm afraid of pain" she said, biting her lower lip and closing her eyes.

Gazing at the slender neck in front of him and the girl's surrender, Aldrich blinked in disbelief.

That's beyond her prejudice. He thought the girl would scream or at least run away in fear of dodging. But this...

"It's amazing"

Hearing those two words, Maribel opened her eyes and looked at Aldrich who was looking at her in wonder with a hint of light of amazement.

"You're afraid of getting sick but not afraid of me biting?" Aldrich gently stroked the girl's slender neck, feeling the smooth texture of her skin as milk.

"I have to say you're a pretty brave human girl"

It looks like a pretty soft tulip, but underneath it is as solid as a pine tree in the forest.

Aldrich grabbed the girl's head and gently put her in a firm posture. Then he held his head behind him and looked inside, "Remember what I said, if you encounter any vampire other than me, don't just turn yourself in like a fish on the cutting board"

"..." - ".Maribel's eyelashes are agitated.

"You have to go as far as you can if you don't want to die from blood loss"

"..." - ".His body had long been frozen in place.

"You got it?"

Maribel nodded her head like a rigid robot, "En"

Aldrich smiled with an indecipherable look. He removed the girl's head and stood up while holding her waist casually, "In the living room there are many bottles of blood. You can take one to prepare my dinner"

"..."

"I'll be waiting for you in the dining room"

After Aldrich's departure, Maribel took a deep breath and fanned his face which was warming up after what the man had done just now.

"Haa. almost there"

Perhaps he would really faint on the spot if the man continued to act further. Patting his chest and controlling his breathing, when he felt completely calm. He rushed to the living room to retrieve the blood bottle that Aldrich was referring to.

Then he went back to the kitchen. Take a glass and a tray. That's how he took her to the dining room.

"Pour it for me"

Maribel nodded. He opened the bottle and poured it into the glass. The feeling made it feel like he had just filled a glass with wine.

The red liquid filled up to the lips of the glass, making Maribel gulp on the spot, deep in thought...

'So.he actually bought a blood bag'

Aldrich picked up the glass that was already fully filled and took a sip. A deep sweet taste slid down his throat. Putting the glass on the table, he raised his gaze towards Maribel, "Take the other bottles that are in the living room, keep some in the refrigerator and the rest put in a cool place. Tomorrow at breakfast, I want a glass of warm goose blood. So don't forget to prepare it when you wake up early"

"D-blood goose?"

"Each bottle has its name. Looky!" Aldrich lifted the bottle and showed the written writing.

Maribel read it, "Netherland dwarf rabbit?" Maribel looked at Aldrich. His eyes looked like they still did not fully understand.

"So remember not to take the wrong bottle" Aldrich put the bottle on the table and went back to pick up the glass, sipping it more than before.

"Sir, all these bottles..."

"Animal blood" Aldrich immediately replied to Maribel's confusion, "It's a long story, in which we essentially no longer consume human blood as intake and replace it with animal blood"

"Ahh.so so" Maribel bearded with such information.

"You're not eating?"
