Unique Blood

Sorry for the delay. I had to do some stuff at my job. Have fun.


Chapter 4


It was late afternoon when Hakkai woke up from his unscheduled nap. He felt a little tired yet ready to continue to drive. He was trying to figure out why he felt hands on his body as if he was in bed going through foreplay. He sat up and noticed that there was a slight budge in the pants.

“So, you finally woke up”, sounded a voice that had a touch of sarcasm in

Hakkai turned his head to the right and spotted Sanzo seated very close reading a newspaper and smoking his favorite cigarettes. ‘Did he spot my condition?’ he wonders as he tried his best not to blush.

“If you’re finished acting like a blushing virgin, maybe you can explain why you almost crash into some fucking tree”, spoke Sanzo as he folded the newspaper.

“I’m not sure myself”, responded Hakkai as he rose from the ground and proceeded to fold the blankets. “Maybe I’m thinking too much or not getting enough sleep”.

“You know you can talk to us about anything. We need you on this mission. You don’t have to shoulder every damned thing that crosses our path”, spoke Sanzo as he finished his smoke and walk towards the jeep.

‘So that’s how you view me’, nodded Hakkai as he gave a small grin. ‘I’m just a necessity for the mission and no more. No sense in asking him about sexual matters if I’m not worth loving”.

“Are you up to driving without zoning out?” asked the priest as he climbed into the front seat.

“Yes. I think we’re close to a town and we should be there before the sun sets”, responded the healer as he placed the blankets in the back of the jeep.

Sanzo called for Gojyo and Goku to climb into the jeep as Hakkai hop behind the wheel to the happy cooing from Hakuryu. Once everyone was on board, the group took off towards the next town in the west hoping that nothing else happens.

************************************************************************


The sun was starting to set when the Sanzo party arrived in the very small town. Once checked into an inn, the four went out to an eatery for dinner. Hakkai was a little depressed when he and Gojyo would have a single room while Sanzo and Goku get the double. With the two together and Gojyo planning to go pick up some female action, Hakkai would be left alone for the night. This should not bother him because it was normal, but somehow it did. For once, he want to sleep in someone’s arms and have that person to whisper into his ears how much they love him.

After the meal, everyone went their separate ways. Sanzo and Gojyo told Hakkai that he should return to the inn to rest. Hakkai smiled at the group and told them that he was going to take a quick stroll before returning to the inn.

Hakkai walked among the night markets as he saw food and wares for sale. He went up to a fruit stall and saw that the produces were perfect in shape, color, and ripeness. He then walked over to a cloth vendor and was amazed to see the most beautiful cloth anywhere. As he continues his walk, he was fascinated with the shops. As he was examining some unique bottles of wine, he felt a hard bump against his back.

“Oh, please excuse me sir”, spoke a man who was standing beside Hakkai.

“That’s alright”, responded Hakkai as he smiled.

The man turned and smiled. Hakkai was amazed at the man and how good looking the stranger was. He was tall with dark brown hair that draped the shoulders, well built, and a kindly appearance on his face. There was a slight paleness to the skin that made the guy very mysterious.

“I’m the owner of this shop and noticed your interests in our rare collection”, purred the man as he looked at the salesperson. “Why not try one of our house specialties? I’m sure you will agree that you will not find anything like this within this area”.

Hakkai was about to decline when the salesperson handed a clear wine glass filled with white wine.

“Don’t worry. The tasting is free”, grinned the owner as he nodded.

Hakkai first sniff the wine then took a sip. “The smell and flavor is very fruity and sweet”, he responded as he drank the contents of the glass.

“Thank you”, smiled the owner as he took the empty glass. “But I’m afraid that the wine has a kick to it if not taken slowly”.

Hakkai began to feel a little light headed as he tried to keep his balance. Wine affects him only when taken in large amounts. Why is he feeling the effects of one glass unless there was something extra in the wine?

The owner gently took hold of the healer’s shoulders as Hakkai was starting to feel light headed. “Come with me dear”, spoke the owner as he proceeded to guide the healer into the shop. “It seems that the wine has taken effect of your mind and your body will only respond to my commands”.

When Hakkai heard those words, he tried to break free of the man’s hold but it wasn’t working. It seems that his body didn’t want to obey his mind. Speaking proved to be impossible as no sound came from his lips.

The owner was merrily talking into Hakkai’s left ear as he led the dazed healer towards a room that had a bed in the corner.

“You’re too beautiful and too delicious to be left alone on a night like this”, purred the owner as he gave a light kiss to Hakkai’s neck. “Such a one like you are the stuff that makes me wants to ravage your body while drinking the sweet nectar of your blood”.

Fear began to occupy Hakkai’s thought process as the owner ran his tongue along the neck and to the ear. ‘This is not happening’ Hakkai said to himself as he felt his shirt being unfasten and a cool hand gently caressing the firm chest. He let out a gasp when he felt fingers rubbing the tip of his left nipple. It felt very good but he didn’t want this guy to handle him in such a manner. He wanted someone else - someone who would tell him that he is the love of their life.

“The wine has made you very sensitive”, chuckled the owner as he proceeded to remove the shirt. “I sense that no one has ever taken you. My lucky night. Not only will I have a most delicious feast, but I will also have in possession a most beautiful thrall”.

A tear ran down Hakkai’s face as he felt soft lips kissing his neck and chin. ‘Is this how Kanan felt before the Centipede King raped and impregnated her?’ he wonders as he felt his body moving towards the bed.

At that moment, a strong gust of wind blew inside the room causing both men to be slam into the wall and onto the floor. Hakkai weakly looked up and saw a towering figure holding the owner by the neck.

“YOU DARE TRY TO CLAIM THIS ONE AS YOUR THRALL!!” roars the figure as it was shaking the helpless owner like a rag doll.

“He….He was at…my shop…” gasped the owner as he tried to free himself from the steel-like grasp. “He’s……fair game…just like all who comes to this town….I…I saw him first…..therefore he’s mines….And there’s nothing…you can do…..about it…..”

“OH, BUT THERE IS TO INSURE THAT YOUR FILTHY HANDS WILL NEVER TOUCH THIS INNOCENT ONE EVER AGAIN!!!” growled the figure as the eyes took on a deep red color.

Hakkai looked on in horror as he watched the figure squeezed the owner’s neck until it snapped in two. Blood was running down its hand as the head slowly detached from the body and fell onto the floor. The body followed with a plop. The figure took out a white cloth and with care, cleaned the bloodied hand.

Hakkai was trying to muscle up the strength to at least remove the youkais limiters on the left ear. He knows that once he changes, the effects of the wine would be gone as well as having more than enough strength to defeat the figure. As he was raising his left arm, the figure looked directly into his green eyes. Hakkai froze in place. He couldn’t believe the beauty before him. Very long black hair, a face of an angel, and brown eyes that can enter the soul. ‘How can a man look so beautiful after killing someone’ wonder Hakkai as he tries to utter a word.

“Are you alright”, asked the figure as he gently took Hakkai’s left hand and placed it to his lips as he gave a soft kiss.

Hakkai was now feeling the pull of unconsciousness as the full weight of the wine has finally captured the entire body. Without saying another word, the eyes closed as he surrendered to the weakness.

The figure grinned as he wrapped his arms and supported the healer. Nodding in total agreement, he lifted Hakkai off the floor and cradle the healer close to the body. Making sure that no one is watching, he left the shop carrying a very important package in which the quality of the drink will be much to savor in due time.
