The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Klaus turned and looked at Rania, a smile playing on his lips as he playfully turned down her offer. ”Nope. I won’t drink your blood.”

She pouted. ”Why?”

”No reason.”

”You!. Is it because I am weak or not one of your wives?”

Klaus laughed and answered, ”Maybe. But none of the above.”

This response only made Rania pout even more. She had heard several times from Klaus’s wives that when he drinks their blood, the feeling is otherworldly.

Initially, since she hadn’t known Klaus that much, she held back her desire to experience such a feeling. However, after Klaus returned to Earth a few months ago, she had the chance to get to know him better.

It was then that she had started to develop the confidence to ask. But now that she did, the fact that Klaus rejected her request stung.

Seeing her stop walking, Klaus also stopped. He knew she would soon cry since, from what he had learned about her, crying is part of her hobby.

Of course, since he had no plans to comfort an emotional lady right now, he reached back for her arm and said, ”The reason why I don’t want to drink your blood is, first, you are a princess. Your blood is royalty, so to drink it, I must first ask for permission.

Second, you are still too weak to satiate my thirst, so there is a chance I might drain you. Lastly, as you said, I only drink my wives’ blood. So as you can see, there are several reasons why drinking your blood is not something I want to do right now.”

Klaus expected her to sigh and maybe pout. However, after hearing his words, she let go of his hand and bolted away. ”I am going to ask my mom’s permission first and come back.”

Klaus was left stunned for a few moments before a smile returned to his face. ”Very troublesome.”

He turned around and walked away. Soon, he returned to the mansion and made his way to Lady Danika’s room.

”She is still not up, huh?” he said, seeing her sleeping soundly.

He only stayed there for a few more seconds before leaving. He knew she would be out for a while, so he left before his presence woke her up.

His wives were also asleep. Clearly, they all wanted to relax for a few days before getting back to training. He promised to spare them later, so there’s that too.

He returned to the pool and decided to relax in there to pass the time.

Meanwhile, Rania arrived at the mansion her mom lives in, only to find her and her grandmother having an impromptu tea.

She, of course, had no idea that they had already seen and heard her interaction with Klaus. She knew that whatever she asked of her mother, she would do. She knew he mom cares so much about her happiness that she has absolute confidence that getting her permission will be easy.

”Mom, I need your permission for Klaus to drink my blood.”

The two ladies turned and looked at each other and smiled. Seeing this smile, she knew she was in trouble. Already, she had seen this smile many times, and it was when she returned with Klaus’s wives.

She knew her mom and grandma wanted to ask her more questions, so the moment she saw the smile, the urge to run came over her. However, how could she be allowed to leave that easily when she was in front of a God and a Supreme?

Her grandma smiled and pulled her into her arms. ”Rania dear, what else are you hiding from us?”

”I-I am not hiding anything. I told you everything I knew.”

”No, you haven’t,” Queen Leah responded with a smirk. ”You never told us you and Lord Paragon are this close. When did it happen? How did you do it? What should we know about him that you haven’t told us? Spill the beans, Rania.”

Rania blinked a few times, her brain creating space for the questions her mom asked. As someone who knows how obsessed her mom is with the Paragon, hearing her ask so many questions didn’t come as a shock.

However, she, who had been through this interrogation before, seemed to have grasped some threads she could pull in her favour. After all, she came with a request, and seeing a trade open up that she never asked for, she could only smile.

Lady Narcisa saw this smile and knew they had fallen into Rania’s trap.

Seeing her grandma had already realised her next move, she grinned and said,

”I am indeed holding back a few things. However, before I say anything, I need it in a written document that you would allow Klaus to drink my blood. Anything other than that, and you would have to extract the information from my dead body.”

”You cheeky brat. When did you become this smart?”

Rania smiled and replied, ”I met a beautiful lady called Ohema who taught me that there is business in everything. I have made my proposal known, so if you want to know more, accept it.”

Queen Leah eyed her beautiful daughter for a few moments before a smile appeared on her face. ”Well played, Rania. I never knew you had it in you.”

”Is anyone really who they seem to be?”

Queen Leah turned and looked at her mother, who smiled and waved her hand, manifesting a scroll. She unfurled it and inscribed a few words with her hand. Afterwards, she signed it and passed it to Queen Leah to sign as well.

Once she was done, they handed it over to Rania, who read through it a few times before also signing. Satisfied, she stored the scroll in her space ring before turning to face her mom and grandma.

”Now that we got that out of the way, what do you want to know?”

”You can start with why you are so eager to let him drink your blood.”

”For starters, I cannot describe the feeling, but from what I heard from his wives, drinking their blood is the most amazing feeling ever. They claim they undergo a very pleasurable moment whenever he drinks their blood. The sensation helps them calm down and release stress.

Also, they claim his bite leaves them wanting more. They also said that whenever he drinks their blood, they grow stronger. I am merely curious here, but after hearing them talk about it several times, I want to experience it in person.

While I may not be able to explain it better now, after experiencing it, I am sure I will have a better description of that feeling.” Her words made sense.

Both Lady Narcisa and Queen Leah nodded after hearing her answer to their first query. ”Second, why didn’t you tell us you are close to him?”

”Because you would have pulled my ear and warned me not to mess with him,” Rania laughed. ”I know how you are when it comes to things related to the Paragon, so I didn’t say anything to save myself some nagging.

That said, I am surprised you aren’t all over him now that he is here. The last I heard, drinking blood makes him powerful, and considering you are a God...and a Supreme, you would become his favourite people after just a single session with him.”

The two ladies widened their eyes.
