Loved By a Vampire King

Ethan's face turned pale like shit. His eyes narrowed dangerously ready to burst inside but somehow managed to hold back in his spot when he realised the person behind him getting vulnerable. Ethan's breathing turned heavy. Supporting his weight against the door, he turned his face back and looked at Athena who was slowly retreating from there.

As their two pair of emotional eyes collided together, Ethan's voice came out like a desperate pleading,

" Trust me! I am not the father of that child."

Athena looked up at him blankly. Her lips were quivering lightly at that moment and she didn't know what to say anymore. No matter what he said, the result was still same that Katherine was pregnant.

Athena bit down her lower lips so hardly that it would start bleeding anytime.Ethan panicked looking at her way and wanted to approach her but the voice of Queen Melinda quickly interrupted his thoughts.

" Ethan! What are you doing over there? Come inside! Katherine needs you now. Hurry! ", Queen Melinda yelled from the room excitedly. Her voice couldn't hold back the excitement that she was feeling inside. After all, this was the first heir of Chole Dynasty according to her since Ayra's birth was still an unsolved mystery.

Ethan's track halted as he looked back inside the room furiously. Just when he dwelled on the fact that he should get inside first or not, he turned around again to take a look of Athena's expression but the woman had already gone from there.

His heart held a sore feeling before storming inside like an enraged beast. The bed was surrounded by everyone who smiled at him widely. Amidst the crowd, the most stunned person was Katherine's Mother who seemed to electrocuted after the news was being told.

Since how did Katherine got pregnant? Who is the father exactly? 

Thinking that her daughter might have shared any illegal affair outside, her expression dropped. Without being notified by anyone, she shot Katherine cold glare who was now nestling on Queen Melinda's arms. Katherine stiffened lightly at her mother's glare and faked a warm smile which seemed too artificial on her face.

Ethan stormed inside furiously and gave everyone a cold glare. As they intended to congratulate him, Ethan's icy voice came out first,

" I am not the father of this child. Do something to find out that either the child belongs to me or not."

Katherine's expression paled drastically. She threw her mother a suggestive glare which she seemed to understand fastly. Using a harsh tongue, Katherine's mother shouted out furiously,

" ETHAN! Are you trying to say that my daughter is lying? Do you think that my daughter is a cheap slut like someone?"

Ethan shot her a death glare as she tried to disrespect Athena indirectly. He scoffed arrogantly and replied with a disdainful sneer,

" Untill now I really thought that your daughter is a decent woman but she has made sure to prove me that she is just another cheap slut."

Katherine's face turned dark after hearing out Ethan's impression on her. She tried to put a non-bothered expression on her face but deep inside, she was boiling. If only it wasn't for Athens, she wouldn't have chosen this way. Thinking about the moment when Ethan proposed Athena in front of everyone, she digged her nails into her flesh so deeply that it could start bleeding anytime.

Queen Melinda's voice rang loudly snatching back everyone's attention,

" Ethan, watch your words! Katherine isn't like others who will try to implicate you. Just admit your mistake and start getting prepared to marry her."

Ethan roared out immediately looking down at the woman who tried to act innocent,

" I will never ever admit a mistake which I haven't even done, mother. You can be too blind to trust this scheming people but I will never believe them for a second in my life. Just do something to figure out the biological father is me! "

He paused dangerously and continued pondering for a while,

" If I am proven wrong, then Katherine can forget about living in Dalastia for eternity."

Katherine's jolted after hearing his last words and clutched the bedsheets tightly in her fist out of nervousness. The healer who didn't leave till now finally managed to speak fearfully standing at a corner,

" Pardon for interrupting my Lord! The baby can't be tested until she or he is born. We have to wait untill Miss Katherine gives birth safely."

Katherine's face turned overjoyed immediately. She never expected that God's favour would be on her side this time. She grinned inside and touched her tummy pitifully in front of everyone to push the blame on Ethan invisibly. Queen Melinda obviously noticed this pitiful act of Katherine which made her more furious over Ethan.

Her eyes shot up to cast on Ethan hatefully as she warned loudly,

" Ethan, Don't you dare to speak in front of Katherine like that. Whether you admit or not, I have already started accepting the child as my grandson. It is just a matter of time to prove that you are his biological father. Don't cause any trouble until she gives birth or else I will definitely leave the castle for forever."

Ethan's face sank at his mother's blackmailing. He was angered again and pursued his lips to say something but didn't dare. On the other side, Katherine gave a thumb up to Queen Melinda secretly and felt proud of her own tactics this time. Indeed a child was the best weapon to conquer everything in White Castle.

Ethan couldn't stand to stay any longer in case he started killing everyone ruthlessly. He turned and left the room angrily without exchanging any words. Just when he passed across the door of Athena's living room, he paused in front of her room abruptly.

As he paid attention deeply, he heard a low sobbing voice coming out from the room faintly. His heart sank at her crying tongue immediately. Without knocking on the door, he pushed open the door instantly and stepped in.

As expected, Athena was startled as soon as she saw Ethan coming in all of sudden. She even forgot to adjust her facial expression and abruptly hauled up from the floor.

Closing the door with a thud, Ethan rushed over to her and pulled her in his arms. Gazing through her eyes deeply, he asked sternly,

" Were you crying just now? "

Athena bite down her lips hesitantly and chose to dodge her question. She didn't answer immediately and tried to break free from her hands dismissively saying,

" Ethan..let go of me..you shouldn't be here alone.."

Ethan sucked a deep breath and spoke sharply,

" I told you that the baby isn't mine."

Athena squeezed her eyes shut to control her emotions and murmured lowly,

" Nothing matters! But her accusations are all on you."

Ethan knew the seriousness of their situation. He pulled her more closer that there was only an inch left between their lips. When Athena thought that he would try to coax him, Ethan suddenly used an ambiguous tone to say something shameful,

" Athena, why don't I impregnant you? Then you can put all blame on me and no one will dare to look down on you."

Athena was shocked blurting out,

" What ???? "

Ethan nodded indifferently and continued tugging on her slender waist sensually,

" I have no objections if you get pregnant with my child. We can give it a try. What do you say? It is the best way to resolve every problems right away."
