Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

257 [Bonus chapter] Who was she?

"Would you believe me if I said even if I did not know the answer?" she asked back and he blinked.

"I know things and act in a certain way from yesterday but I don't know why? It's just.. It feels natural to beat others and use daggers. And whenever I look at you, I see your eyes sparkling silver like your hair." she shrugged her shoulders when she looked at his baffled face.

She had not even told him half of it. She was seeing so many things as nightmares and each of them felt that it had happened to her.

Her heart was burning with agony and the desire to take revenge. She did not know why and with whom? All she knew was, she was losing her sanity but at the same time gaining it with much better senses and strength.

But she felt lost.

"Hazel.. Are.. are you okay?" she raised her head abruptly and looked into his eyes.

He was looking worried for her which she was not expecting after her reply. Her face softened as she nodded. There was no physical pain in her body and she could fight.

She still has the desire to teach lessons to her family. So she should be called okay, right?

"We need to go and check what Vincent is upto and where Rafael is." she changed the topic as she did not have time to have pity on herself when Lucian nodded.

They walked into a nearby parked carriage and settled in when Lucian took the place of the coachman.

"My lady, those kids.. I have checked the place and found a witch there too.

She had not yet told me anything but I found a small box there. It was full of beryllium. I think lord Rafael is using kids to supply it since the vampires would only look for shady persons not kids that were asking for money on the road.

They had attached the small packets with the inside of the kids' clothing so that it would not be visible.

I did not know what happened to the rest of the stock but i only have a small box and that is enough to create more than fifty arrows or sword blades."

"That is a lot!" she stopped for a second as if she was calculating, "do you know how many boxes were there like that?" worry could be seen clear in her eyes but when she looked at him from the partition between them, hesitation was clear on his face that gave her a foreboding feeling.

"That.. umm, i think there were more than 100 boxes, my lady. I think he had used the kids for a long time to get so much.

It.. it must be going before or since your marriage, my lady." she nodded her head and closed her eyes.

"Then let me talk to the kids before we go back to the palace." If there is so much Bellirium in the hands of Vincent, then he would have convinced father to have a war with vampires.

Why did he want her to give poison to Rafael? And why did he accused father for killing me with poison too. Shouldn't they be supporting each other?

She still felt that there was something he was hiding from everyone but what could it be!

Lucian nodded but did not say a word after that. Since she could see that he was a witcher, that would mean that she would notice that everyone in that it was a witch or witcher.

If he could not hide, he could only hope that she would not mind it since she had not said a word to her after knowing the truth. But it also meant that she had powers to see through the spells and only a fellow stronger than them could do that.. Like the witch in the annex building.

She was a first generation witch? Could it be that hazel was one too? No! He shook his head.

He had checked thrice, her mother and father both were humans and she was born much later than him. Then how could she be a first generation of witch.

Hazel passed some water to the maid who was still looking pale. She had not expected that one of them would be a witch and the other would be the wife of a vampire.

Had she chosen the right side. Worry and fear was clear on her face when hazel sighed.

"I know that it is difficult for you. But it did not matter what the species of the person in front of you was.

Every species has good and bad people to keep prejudice against all vampires and witches, do you think humans have enough humanity to kill their own species?" the maid blinked and lowered her head at hazel's question.

"I did not mean that. I did not want to be part of the war between different species. I am just a commoner who wants to live a simple life." the girl replied in a soft voice when Hazel chuckled and shook her head.

"The moment you have decided to take part in the activities of Vincent, you have lost the right to live a peaceful life.

But after confessing everything and ending this chaos. You could earn the right to have a peaceful life once again. So, do not worry. I will protect you as I have promised.

But if you are still worried…" Hazel closed her eyes and her lips started moving.

 Lucian was using the power of wind to listen to their conversation clearly frowned when he could not hear anything anymore.

The maid continued to stare at hazel with confusion. Hazel took out an amulet from her hands and passed it to the girl.

"Here! It will protect you till the end. It has strong powers so whenever you are in danger, just break it and the spell would protect you."
