Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 459 - 459 Share A Room

459 Share A Room

Was he leaving? Now! After so much had happened?

He did not leave when she asked him to. He did not leave when she wanted to.

And he wanted to leave now. The emotion that was hurting her chest and making her suffocated. The emotion that was gnawing at her chest was all due to his stubbornness to stay and now he wanted to leave!

She wanted to hold his collar and jerk it badly. What gave him the right to toy with her? What gave him the right to come and go as he wished! What in the world did he think of himself?

Anger, resentment, frustration and more than anything pain started to fill her chest but she just only nodded.

She nodded her head in acceptance on his decision to leave when he gave a hollow and dispirited laugh.

A self depreciating look filled his face as he nodded back and turned to leave.

For a second, he still had the hope that she would stop him. But it was all just his illusion.

In the end, he did not!

.....

“We are afraid that you can not leave, sir!” the knight said as they blocked his way when he frowned.

“I have already paid the fine for the building.” The owner of the building nodded his head while holding the gold tightly in his hands, afraid that it would be taken away from him.

“Oh, I know but it will still require some paperwork. So both of you have to come with us.” he said to the owner and then to Declan who closed his eyes and sighed.

He felt like fate was playing with him but.. He will not fall deeper than he already was!

He nodded and looked back at the girl. She was staring back at him and their eyes met for a second.

“I am sorry to follow you once again.” he whispered when she looked away. If only, he knew!

“You can follow us on the horse, they both can sit with me in the carriage.” offered Anne as they had a limited number of horses.

“Oh, i have my own horse, i had used to come here.” The owner let the offer go, afraid that Declan could ask back money since the case was not yet taken away.

Anne stared at Declan who was left alone with her. They both can teleport and avoid the long journey. But.. Anne walked in the carriage and sat on her seat without saying another word.

Declan stared at her silently before following her and sitting with her.

She did not look back at him. As the carriage started, she kept looking out of the window… but the mirror was reflecting the time they had spent together instead of mirroring her image in it.

“Will you.. Forgive me now that I am leaving?” he whispered when she turned to look back at him with a mocking smile on her face.

“You want me to forgive you when you are leaving me?” the words were the same, yet.. The way she spoke them sounded so different then the way he had said them.

“I..” he felt at a loss of words.

“You have always treated me like I do not have my own desires or wishes!” she spat with anguish when he opened his mouth and closed again.

“To think that you have the right to come into my life and leave it as you seem fit again and again. I must say you have the guts to seek my forgiveness.” her voice was so cold that Declan shivered.

He felt like he was a… scum! But…

“You always wanted me to leave!” he said in an unsure voice when she laughed.

“Do I know?” she nodded her head as if agreeing to him but he still felt that it was not the truth.

“But you always hated me and asked me to leave so many times.” did she not. He could literally rub all those words on her face when she had treated him like air and asked him to leave, vanish and never return in her life.

She even went to the limit of hiring a fake lover so that he would not follow her.

“Yes, you are right. So give me a favor. Do not ever come back.” her voice quivered a bit and she looked away when he felt insulted again.

“Yes, I will never come back. Since you do not want to be with me. I did not have any reason to stay here and fight.” he sighed, his voice breaking when she closed her eyes.

She would not explain anything to him. Yes! It was good that he was leaving.

Thick silence ensued in the carriage. They both were looking out of the window on the opposite side when the lightning struck the ground.

The dark clouds had covered the sky and the lightning was so strong and thunderous that the horse neighed wildly.

“That is an untimely and sudden storm,” said the knights following them.

The horses were not ready to run in such weather. The lightning was making such scary sounds that they raised their front legs and neighing loudly.

“My lady, how about we take a break and rest in the nearest inn before going back to the palace?” asked the knight in a worried voice when she wanted to shake her head but she could feel the trembling of the carriage.

“Alright, we will stop.” if she would feel uncomfortable, she would just rent a room and then teleport to the palace from there.

With that thought, she nodded her head and soon everyone stopped in front of a building that offered enough space for the horses too.

“We want to rent five rooms.” said the knight as they reached the receptionist and took the keys.

He gave one to Anne and the one to the other knights.

“You both need to share a room with me to make sure that you do not run away.”

“Ha! I will only share a room with the lady if I need to.”
