KING GULF
Chapter 23

Bright swiftly pulled out his sword and let his defender loose and he was quite surprised by someone who was now in front of him.

"Calm Bright, it's me"

"Master Mew?! I'm sorry I thought you were the guards" Bright grimaced a little with the pain.

"Where have you been all this time? I looked for you in the palace but couldn't find you. You okay?" Tanya Mew was worried to see some parts of Bright's body wrapped in bandages.

"I'm doing fine. They locked me in jail and someone helped me. Sorry I just got out now. Hows it? Have you found any clues about your Majesty?"

"I haven't found it yet, but I found Weir working with the vampires"

"What?!"

"The palace is full of vampires right now, and I see the one leading the vampire is Nick. If I'm not mistaken, he's Mick's son" Bright's still a little confused about a lot of questions in his head right now.

"We'd better leave now, it'll be dangerous if we get caught here. Not only you, I'm being searched by the palace"

"How can you?"

"Hunters are no longer allowed into the kingdom. It must be Nick who told Weir to shut down the hunters. Come fast you can walk?" Bright just nodded. The fever that hit him worsened the condition of his body.

...****************...

Pete looked at Gulf who was bending his face, as usual he had to feed him. As Pete approached, Gulf immediately stared intently at his face.

"Your Majesty I just want to give you this" Pete said. Gulf drank his blood.

"Why do you call me your highness?" Ask Gulf. Pete was surprised and pleased that the Gulf had asked him to speak.

"Do you remember me?" Ask Pete enthusiastically.

"Who are you?" Pete frowned.

"Ah you don't remember me. But I'm grateful you're calm now. You're a king, so I call you noble"

"I? But why did you tie me up and lock me up like a prisoner?"

"The Nattawin clan. Mr. Apo is your uncle and you are indeed a king, but not a king here. Except the king in your own kingdom. It's too long to tell, but don't you remember Mr Mew?"

"Mew?" Gulf seemed speechless, the name felt familiar to him but he could not remember it.

"He's a vampire hunter. He's so close to you" Gulf thinks how can a vampire get along with a vampire hunter? He also did not want to bother thinking about it.

"I don't know. How long are you gonna tie me up? Let me see the guy"

"Who?"

"The one who tied me up"

"Mr Apo? He'll come here later. You need to calm down, it's all for you, your majesty" Gulf was lazy to hear Pete speak, he continued to drink his blood.

Apo entered the Gulf room. Not welcomed, Gulf was about to attack him, but he could not because of the chains that bound him.

"Don't waste energy" Apo said as he approached the Gulf.

"How to tell you if you don't know about yourself" he murmured. Apo tried to use some of his spells but did not make the Gulf return to how it was.

"Take me off!!" Shouting Gulf.

"If you want to be released, control yourself!!" Apo said annoyed. Shortly thereafter, Pete arrived. Gulf looked at Apo with his smirk and now he became calmer.

"Well, I'll do it, but let go of this bond. I heard you were my uncle. You can't do this to me" Apo looked at the talking Gulf, a little unsure but he removed the chains that bound him. Gulf directly stretched his hands to relieve the aching feeling in his body.

"Sir, what if we meet someone close to him?" Pete asked quietly, Apo looked at him.

"Whatever. You take care of him. We can't do anything if he hasn't come back" Apo said, leaving the room, and Pete decided to leave today. Gulf who saw the two already exited, slowly tried to approach the exit. But of course he could not open it, now the room was given a barrier by Apo. He also kept quiet again with annoyance.

"What's the difference with tying me up? Goddamnit!" Upset Gulf.

...****************...

Bright fell silent after hearing Mew's explanation, he began to understand now.

"So the sword belonged to a vampire named Mick and now his son is working with Mr Weir to help him occupy the royal throne? Hah I didn't think out with him, even with the case yesterday they....." Bright sighed, he did not expect that this was all so far away that it involved vampires. Bright now joins Mew and Boat in hiding.

"Yes but I still don't understand why the sword could be in the palace? Maybe it has something to do with the queen? Was there anything strange in the palace?" Tanya Mew, Bright seemed to think . He himself was in the palace when the Gulf was appointed king, before he was always in the camp to train the soldiers.

"I don't know"

Bruk!!

"Don't kill me, I beg you!"

"Shut up!!" Hearing the noise, Mew looked at the vampire who was dragged by Boat. Mew rounded his eyes surprised to see Pete captured by Boat.

"Wait Boat!" Mew approached him, Boat frowned not understanding. He was ready to stab her.

"What are you doing here?" Ask Mew.

"Phi he's a vampire I saw him sneaking up coming here. We have to kill him immediately. He must be one of them" Boat said.

"No sir don't kill me. I'm here to take you" Mew calmed Boat.

"What's wrong?"

"The noble Gulf is now in my clan. I need you to come and see him" Mew was silent and his heart was beating faster.

"He's with you? Take us there!" Bright said enthusiastically.

"Sorry is too dangerous for a human being, but Mr. Mew I think I can handle it"

"Bright I'll bring her back here with Boat. Take me there" Mew said. Pete nodded, both of them left. Although a little reluctant, Bright could only agree to it.

...****************...

Mew enters the area full of vampires, this is his first time. Upon entering the area, Mew had already gotten a starving look from the vampires who were there. More precisely vampires are still trained to control their passions.

...****************...

Pete takes her to the doorstep of the room that he believes the Gulf is inside right now. He fell silent, somehow he expressed his delight this time. Mew held the doorknob.

"Sir, earlier.... I'm asking you not to be surprised by his condition right now" Pete said, stopping Mew from opening the door.

"What do you mean?"

"It's hard to explain, but it's definitely possible that he'll be different from the old noble. I have to see Mr. Apo. Can you handle it?" Mew doesn't quite understand what Pete is explaining, but he just nods.

...****************...

Mew opened the door and saw someone sitting on the couch, and he knew right away that it was the Gulf. Slowly he approached her. Gulf who sensed someone coming glanced at him sharply stopped Mew's steps.

"Gulf" Call Mew. Gulf stared at him, making clear Mew's vision that the Gulf in front of him already felt very different.

"Who are you?" Ask Gulf.

"You don't remember me? I'm Mew" Gulf laughed at him.

"What else is he going to do? He told you to do what? Wait, you.... A human being" Gulf smirknya slit his saliva as if immediately hungry to see Mew. Mew slightly disliked the tone of Gulf's voice, making him doubt whether what was with him now was the Gulf he knew or not. But given what Pete explained, at least he understood what happened even though he did not know what caused it.

Mew ventured to get close to the Gulf and he hugged her tightly. There was no response from the Gulf, but he stared at Mew's open neck. He smiled and was ready to bite her.

"You can bite me, but please talk to me first. How did you get to be like this?" Mew's remarks stopped the Gulf. He let go of his embrace and fused his two eyebrows together. Mew closed his eyes.

"Had I told you not to leave me again, I was looking for you everywhere. I miss you" Gulf just stared at him. He did not understand why he was silent now. Mew opened his eyes and immediately kissed Gulf's lips gently. Gulf fell silent, while Mew deepened his kiss.

Bruk!

Mew was thrown into the wall hard enough after the Gulf pushed him to release his second kiss.

"Damn it!! Disgusting man!!" Shouting Gulf. Mew grimaced with the pain in his body. Gulf approached him, he stepped on Mew's thigh which was still sitting.

"Look!! My appetite is gone now. What better am I gonna do? Release your head?" Gulf said with a finger scouring Mew's neck.

"Or.... I'll crush it until it's left?" Gulf looked at him with his smirk. At once the Gulf was immediately away thrown to the other side.

"Gulf!" Call Mew surprised. Apo who just came to try to keep him away.

"Look at what you're doing!" Apo Saying. Pete sees Gulf and Mew in turn.

"Master just needs time for him to remember Mew. I'm sure he can bring the Gulf back to consciousness" Pete approaches Mew to help him wake up.

"You okay?" Mew just nodded.

"What the fuck? Didn't you bring her here for me to eat?"

"Your Majesty is the one closest to you. You don't remember?" Pete asked but Gulf ignored him.

"Bring him up and give him medicine" Apo said. Mew the Gulf manatap who did not care about him even had no interest in glancing at him at all.
