Kamilah: We need milk, eggs, and bread. Write it down.

MC: No need. I'll remember

[an hour later]

Kamilah: What did you buy?

Bloodbound Fanfiction (characters and main story belongs to Pixelberry Studios).

Pairing: Kamilah Sayeed and MC (Annie)

Information: this takes place after Bloodbound 3, but I made a few changes. In my story, MC was never Turned because Gaius wasn’t able to hit her. Also, the world don’t know anything about vampires yet, just a few people (politicians, scientists...). It’s a working progress.

Summary: News about a new virus spreading on China makes Kamilah worry about her human and the vampire holds no effort to make sure Annie will be safe. Even if it means not touching her for months.

Warnings: it has a little bit of sex content. 

Part 1 Part 3

I WON’T TAKE RISKS - PART 2 

          “I bet everything.” – Anna’s statement made Lily shove all of her poker chips in Kamilah’s direction.

          “Huh.” – the Vampire Queen narrowed her eyes. – “Interesting.”

           Behind the glass, Annie was watching the game and participating through Lily. Since both of them were relatively new at playing Poker, Adrian and Kamilah thought it would be only fair to let them team up. So Lily sat on the table with her back turned to the glass, giving Annie a clear view of the cards in her hand. Kamilah was right across Lily, with Adrian in her right and The Baron on her left.

           “I’m out.” – Adrian sighed.

           “Me too.” – said The Baron. He gave them a yellow smile, a cigar trapped between his teeth. – “I like this new type of Council Meeting. Who knew you could be fun.”

           The whiskey bottle on the table was almost empty. Even Annie was drinking behind the glass, her hands playing with the glass of wine while Kamilah kept staring at her suspiciously. They taught the human how to play in the third week of quarantine. She was being impossible, already tired of watching movies and reading books. After the tenth time hearing the intercom ring in one single morning, Kamilah finally gave up and called for help. They moved the Council Meetings to that basement and started to think about group activities to distract Annie.

            Back then, the vampire could read her wife perfectly during game nights. Annie was a terrible liar. But now, a month later, she was getting good at disguising her feelings. Even the human’s heart was not speeding for each lie anymore… And Kamilah wasn’t sure she liked this new skill of hers.

           “I’m all in.” – she shoved her chips too, eyes never leaving Annie’s face.

           “Are you sure?” – the girl offered a cheeky smile.

           “Absolutely.”

            The cocky smile faded into anger in half second when Kamilah put down her cards. Straight Flush.

           “Ah, come on!”

           Lily let the cards go. A simple Three of a Kind.

           She still twists her mouth a little bit when she lies. – the Vampire Queen was feeling very proud of herself.

           “Only three queens in your hand and you were already feeling cocky?” – growled The Baron.

           “In real life I only have one and it’s already mind-blowing. I thought three would definitely make a win.”

           “Only one?” Kamilah arched her eyebrows. “Remember me to not let you go anywhere near any other queens”.

           “You’re the only Royal mouth I wish to sit on, darling.” Anna gave her a wink, amused by the way her wife gasped and almost choke in whisky. After that, they started to get more into the Council’s problems, discussing politics and bureaucracies that soon enough made Annie feel sleepy and nod off in her armchair. She didn’t see The Baron and Lily leaving a couple hours later, and didn’t hear Adrian talking about her either. Even though the girl was truly asleep and had no enhanced hearing, he lowered his voice to make sure not to cause any problems between then.

           “Kamilah… Don’t you think this is a little… Exaggerated?” – he gestured lightly in the glass direction. – “It has been almost two months.”

           “I won’t take risks, Adrian.”

           “I understand your concern, I really do. But why couldn’t you two quarantine together in the Penthouse? Why did you need to isolate her like this?”

           Kamilah sighed, exhausted. “It wouldn’t work. Ahmanet Financial is responsible for supporting the production of too many necessary medications. Besides, we jumped on the lead of the vaccine research. I can’t freeze work. I let most of my people go home, but there is still a few of us who are too essential to stop.”

           “Well, you could go to work and take an alcohol bath once you got home. It’s less complicated than this.”

           “Yes. And what would I do when I got home to find out that this little rebel put on a mask and went outside to buy something to cheer me up?” – Kamilah crossed her arms. – “That’s what she does, Adrian. She can’t stay still, and she most definitely can’t stop herself from finding new ways to make me happy. I love my wife, but I’m certain she would do something stupid for a good cause. And all it takes is for her to press one elevator button and unconsciously touch her face. So, one more time: I won’t take risks.”

           He couldn’t disagree. “Ok. You really thought this through.”

           She nodded quietly.

           “Oh, one more thing. I noticed she had a piece of cake in there today. Did you put a kitchen in the room?” – his tone sounded concerned.

           “Oh God, no. I wouldn’t leave her down here alone with a stove. She cooks very well, but almost destroyed our kitchen four times in the past year.” – Kamilah took another sip of her whisky and used the empty glass to point at the door behind her. – “The food is prepared in there. Everything she desires.”

           Adrian laughed softly. “Why am I not impressed that you would hire someone just for that?”

           “Oh. I didn’t hire anyone.”

           “What?”

           “I told you. I. Won’t. Take. Risks.”

           Adrian’s chin fell down. “Kamilah… Are you the one cooking for her? Every day?”

           “Of course. I can’t be sick, so there’s nothing contagious inside me, and I always make sure to leave my clothes outside and sterilize myself before starting. Besides…” – she glanced at Annie’s figure all tangled with a unicorn blanket. A sparkle of joy appeared for a second in those Egyptian dark eyes. – “She prefers my cooking.”

           “Kamilah Sayeed making everything a human girl desires to eat just to make her feel better about quarantine. Now I’ve truly seen it all.”

Sayeed, aka the group's favourite genderfluid "they're our friend, but no one should meet them in a dark alley" spellcaster.

The unexpected is a fun campaign, folks.
