Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

“Well, I was not there. I left the palace in the middle of the night with Diana when everyone was sleeping.

Many knights and maids had seen me leaving. More than that, if I want to kill you or them, I do that in front of everyone. They know that i did not need to hide it

The council is well aware about my way of dealing things and.. I am the head of the council indirectly with the maximum number of seats under me, so who would dare to speak against me?” he asked with a raised brow but his eyes narrowed when he felt her uneasiness.

She should have been happy that she didn’t need to go against her family and the matter sorted out. More than that, he was giving her her long awaited freedom then why did it feel like she did not want to anymore and she was trying to complex the situation.

“But what if..” she took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She felt drained, she did not know what was happening around her anymore.

If there was no way that Vincent could win, then what he was trying to achieve._.

Was she thinking way too much? There might be a chance that Vincetn was only interested in playing with her and the position of her father. He had nothing to do with Rafael and other vampires. So, he was trying to achieve all of it with one blow.

Rubbing her forehead, she closed her eyes and laid beside him. Her head was spinning and her thoughts were in a mess.

“You are worrying about me like I am a little kid. I never thought I would be treated like one by a human!” he chuckled as he stroked her hair.

Her face, her smile and even her worries. He was going to miss her. If only.. He shook his head. No matter how much he tried to see the reflection of Bella in her, she was not Bella!

“You should rest. I will go and take a look at the proceedings. If you need me, ask the maids to call for me. Alright?” she nodded her head as it would be best that he would live. Only then she would be able to sort out her thoughts properly and come to a conclusion.

She had thought that he would leave instantly. He must be waiting to leave anyway. She was nothing but a burden that he had to hold for one more month. Or there might be a chance that he would get rid of her before that.

Leaving her here in the name of spending time with her family, he might leave back for his empire.

The thought only increased the pain in his head and heart. When starge blurry image of a couple started to form in front of her eyes again.

A strange dream she had seen before waking up yet she felt so much familiarity to it as if she had known that couple, those people she had heard name of since a long time.

“Kiss!” Just when she was lost in her thoughts, strong breaths and warmth of his lips were felt on her forehead and her eyes snapped open.

He was looking into her eyes with a smile on his face while his lips were still closer to her forehead.

“You should rest, Hazel. I am not weakening just because I have not killed anyone in the past few months.

I am a demon that could kill anyone without remorse. Stop treating me like a sick child who needs constant care. It is.. Unnerving!” she blinked when she felt that his eyes were darkening and a swirl of emotions were flowing in them.

He was right! He was a vampire who had killed so many people without blinking his eyes. Just what she was afraid of? Could it be that her heart was trying to find reasons to spend more time with him and did not let him go?

She nodded as she sat up abruptly, hitting her hands on his forehead when he glared at her while rubbing his forehead like a child who was hit without any reason.

“Tsk! Who was saying that he was not a child?” she asked as she rolled her eyes at his exaggerated reaction.

Just how hard could her hands be that he looked at her with such an aggrieved look in his eyes when he shook his head.

“Tsk! You are no fun. I am leaving. Take some rest. I will come when it is time for a meal. Till then you can enjoy those snacks I have called for you.” he pointed at the table that was filled with snacks as he left the room.

She was sure that he was going to drink blood from the way he was gulping his own saliva and touching his throat unconsciously. Her wounds and the smell of boodl must be troubling her.

Yet he stayed there till she was awake and even answered all of her questions patiently when he was not even able to sit for long.

Her eyes soften as she puts some pressure on standing up and walking towards the table.

She picked up a macron and ate it but her mind was not at ease. She was still worried about Vincent.

She could not believe that his actions were that simple.

In the end, she placed the food back and walked out of the room.

“Do you know where my brother Vincent is?” she asked the maid who was passing from a distance.

“Yes, his highness just finished his meeting with the council man and went towards his room to take a rest. Do you need anything my lady?” She shook her head and walked towards Vincent’s room when she noticed a crowd in the hall of the palace.

“What do you mean by all this? I am still the emperor and you can not arrest me on your whim? That scoundrel is either hypnotized or greed has eaten his conscience!”
