Chapter 172  Luna The Vampire Mommy

For starters, she didn\'t actually need the air.

She had merely breathed in out of instinct, and not because her body was dependent upon oxygen.

It was definitely a strange feeling, but it was far from uncomfortable or tiresome.

Another thing was her hearing.

It was such a drastic improvement over that of her old body that it wasn\'t even funny.

Despite the top notch sound-proofing in their home, she knew just by listening that she was entirely alone, Anna had left her music playing in her art room, and the fridge was currently producing more ice.

\'Incredible…\'

Suddenly, the sound of the elevator opening could be heard and she listened to the excited running of footsteps.

In a moment, the vampire Nadine rushed through the door wearing her usual bright and charismatic smile.

"Luna!! My dear blooded is awake!"

"Your wha- oof!"

Like a blonde rocket, Nadine flung herself into Luna without waiting for her to prepare for landing.

As if she were a puppy, she stared to rub her face against hers while muttering words that poor Luna had no idea how to process.

"As I thought, you take after me, huh? Fangs above, you are so beautiful that I can hardly stand it! Fuck I\'m so proud!"

"Nadine…why are you behaving like this?"

"It\'s been around 600 years since I last turned anyone, so I suppose that you could say that this entire situation has made me a bit emotional!"

"Wonderful…"

Luna somehow managed to pull herself away from the overly friendly vampire and placed a few pillows between them.

"How did you know I was awake?"

"Because I\'m your maker! The two of us are connected now, in the sense that I can feel your emotional, and physical state even from ten kilometers away.

And no matter what, I will always come running towards you if you require my aid. Just like the rest of your family."

Luna wasn\'t a 100% sure but it seemed like Nadine was being incredibly sincere towards her.

It made her feel even more wary about her now that she seemed to be able to manipulate her emotionally too.

Nadine smiled wryly like she had heard all of Luna\'s distrusting thoughts.

"I know it must all be strange, right? But I hope that this will be a way that I can show you my sincerity."

She took one of Luna\'s hands and placed it directly over her stomach, allowing her to feel more of her body\'s new changes.

"Your chances are back, however slim they may be. You can have a child again, Luna."

Flashes of disbelief inevitably turned into crying, and then joy.

Luna could do nothing but smile beautifully as she laughed, unsure of just how her emotions had taken such a sudden and dramatic turn.

Wiping her face of tears, she immediately started looking for her phone to call the one person she had done this for.

"W-Where\'s my phone? I have to call Malachi right now!"

Once she saw it sitting on the dresser, she immediately lunged for it, only to have Nadine snatch it away at the last second.

"What are you doing?!" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"I-I\'ve been instructed not to let you touch your phone for a while, atleast until everyone else gets back."

"And why the hell not?"

"I\'m not allowed to tell you! I\'m supposed to focus on getting you used to using your new body properly so that you can function without any issues."

Luna said nothing and folded her arms across her bare chest while staring at her maker coldly.

"Nadine… tell me right now, what is going on?"

"I-I\'ve been sworn to secrecy! Real ones don\'t break the code!"

"Nadine!"

"F-Fine..!" The vampire said exhaustedly.

She started to fiddle with her fingers as she tried to figure out the best way to break the news to Luna.

"Well… as of right now you humans are kind of… fighting against each other?"

"What?!"

"Yea… it started over here in America but now it\'s kind of happening all over the place. It happened a week ago the day after your body started to transition."

"Explain! How did this happen??"

Nadine scratched her cheek as she tried to remember the name of that prison that was all over tv.

"It started when some terrorist organization broke everyone out of… what was it again…? Tadpole…? Transylvania…? Catharsis…?"

As Nadine tried and failed to explain what was going on, Luna\'s eyes only got wider and wider with every passing second.

"Please tell me… that you aren\'t trying to say Tartarus…?"

"Yeah, that\'s it! You\'re such a smart girl, my little-"

"NADINE!"

"Okay, okay!"

-

What is the most discriminated and restricted group within the United States?

If you have any sort of political literacy, you would know the answer easily.

It\'s criminals.

In today\'s day and age, criminals are the only people in society who are openly discriminated against with little to no backlash.

They are stripped of their right to vote, they become numbers on a printed sheet, some will endure forced labor, inhuman treatment, substandard living conditions, and they are stuck inside of a box with others just like them as they slowly lose their minds and become accustomed to life inside cells.

Even when they get out, they hardly know how to function in society after following the so called \'prison rules\' for months or even years at a time.

To make matters worse, getting a job becomes staggeringly difficult, and the only things available to you would be back breaking labor or flipping burgers and cleaning up shit stains off a bathroom ceiling.

Though there are wonderful and inspiring stories about those that rise above the circumstances, this is not the case for everyone in the U.S where the prison system is often more focused on punitive measures rather than reform.

As a result, most of the inmates of Tartarus knew what kind of future awaited them when or if they were ever released.

But when Arias came to free them, they realized they had a chance to turn the whole world upsidown before they could be dragged under.

Their eagerness resulted in them commencing their first attack with Arias\' faction only two days after escaping.

At first, they destroyed multiple army bases along the east coast and north west.

But that was only a precursor to their true objective; which was to attack the Bureau of Fiscal Services.

Any humans inside that responded with violence were immediately killed while the rest were tied up and left unbothered.

Afterwards, Arias and his men uploaded a virus into government servers; corrupting records and eliminating any and all traces of debt for any American, at which point they burned the physical files and thoroughly cleansed all traces.

The U.S. treasury department was next to see a visit from Arias and his faction, and their fate was much the same.

This sparked a national debate over whether or not it was truly beneficial to let Arias and his believers do as they wished or if they should be stopped entirely.

Even humans were starting to think life under his direction might not be so bad, but they were neglecting one simple thing.

Arias wasn\'t shy about dropping bodies.

He gave the humans he came across one simple choice; bow or die.

Those who chose to fight and open fire were immediately cut down without waiting for another second, and a video was uploaded onto a stream for the whole world to see.

It made it clear to many that this man was not acting for the benefit of humans.

His main priority would foremost be the blessed, and whatever humans that believed otherwise were overwhelmingly mistaken.

Even now, the body count left behind by him was crawling towards two million.

And yet Arias and his faction were still on the warpath and destroying government buildings and offices all across America.

The national guard and the army had been deployed, effectively shutting down parts of the country all together and forcing evacuations.

But even now… things didn\'t look good.

With Arias and his followers running out of opposition to get in their way… many were starting to flee the country, or even brace themselves for a new regime built on the ashes of humanity.

The only hope the world seemed to have were the blessed who weren\'t alright with Arias\' needless killing, and were desperately trying to stop him alongside the government\'s remaining forces.

After Luna heard everything, she wiped her face of tears as she pulled her body out of bed and went to her closet.

"Nadine, I\'m only going to ask you this once. Where is my man, and where are my friends?"

Fiddling with her fingers uncomfortably, Nadine realized that she would already be in trouble for snitching so there was no longer any use for being tight lipped.

As she said a silent apology to Malachi and the others, she switched on the tv and showed Luna the live broadcast.
