Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 226 What Was Their Relationship?

“Ha! They would die before your master.”

“………….” they realized that they had spoken more than required and closed their mouths instantly. They gave him a small push but let him go after that.

Their brooding eyes were telling him that they knew the plan. He must tell Hazel the plan in case she was going to suffer by it or.. The image of the girl from last night flashed in his eyes. That witch!

He was pushed out of the door but instead of being taken to Hazel and Rafael, he was taken to the stables.

“You used a carriage yesterday without the permission of the royal family. If it would have been any other servant, he would have been punished severely by cutting his hands but since you belong to the lord, you have to work in the stables for a day as your punishment.” he gritted his teeth as he realized why the knights were not worried when it comes to telling him their plans._.

They have already planned that he would not be able to meet his masters. But if he tried to go against them, they would only come harsher. He needed to let their guards down so that he would find a chance to run away.

He nodded his head and started working on washing the horses. The man smirked as he looked at Lucian as if he was a disgusted thing who had finally realized that he should live in their feet to get their grace.

Lucian ignored the smug smile on their faces as his mind started to work on assessing the map of this place and looking at the exits. If only the older witch would have been here and used her invisibility spells on him again.

“What are you daydreaming for? There is so much work left. Do it in a hurry!” He felt a strong pain in his abdomen when the man kicked him with all his force. He was wearing the shoes with spikes at the point to hurt him further.

He could see the smirk of the man getting wider.

“I heard that you even dared to point your sword at the master, his highness. Huh? Do you think you are a superhero or what?”  The tone was full of ridicule and hatred. The eyes of the man were filled with malice.

He should have known that a man like Vincent would never forgive and forget.

Lucian was pushed a few more times before working diligently yet he continued to get insulted and laughed on.

On the other hand,

“Are you sure that you are not coming with us, my lord?” Vincent was having a hard time maintaining the smile on his face. What was this damn vampire thinking now? Yesterday, he had followed them like an obedient dog and kept all his attention on the festival.

Though he won the spar they have had together. It was only a match to know his weakness and now Vincent was sure how to subdue him. So, in reality, he was the winner and he did not care what others thought. They have a bigger goal to achieve.

But if this vampire keeps throwing tantrums, then how would they execute their plan?

“You are here to show the world that you are not as dangerous as they think. It would not be good if you stay huddled up in the palace, my lord. I request you to please reconsider!” even Hazel was staring at the vampire with confusion. Wasn’t he out all day to know more about the empire and find weakness of Vincent and her father.

And more than that he was searching for the place where they have hid more beryllium. Why did he refuse to leave the palace when he had so much to work for and look around.

She could feel the desperate plea in the voice of Vincent. They both were assessing each other, she deduced! But she still did not understand the change in his thoughts.

As if feeling her gaze, Rafael turned to look at her. Her hands still have a small scratch and though her rosy complexion had returned, he still felt that she needed care and concern.

“I can not go out since my wife is not well. I need to spend time with her in case she thinks that I do not care about her anymore.

More than a kind vampire, I am a wife pecked husband, my dear brother in law. You should be happy that i love your sister so much.“ His eyes were dripping honey while his gaze was soft and endearing.

He moved closer and held her in his arms. Pulling her from the sofa, he made her sit on his lap and leaned his head on the crook of her neck.

“…………..” the biggest skill Rafael had was to boil the blood of others until they would get a heart attack. She could see how Vincent was trembling with rage.

He must have felt humiliated the way Rafael was disgracing his presence. Hazel could feel how Vincent’s eyes turned darker and the desire to kill filled them. But it made her feel relieved.

She did not know why but her heart fluttered even when she knew that Rafael was just spouting nonsense to aggravate Vincent.

Last night when he went to call the maid and did not return. And when the maid told her that he had gone to meet the vampire girl that had come today, she had felt betrayed, hurt and upset. She waited all night but he did not return. Even in the palace, he had taken actions against Damien and Scarlet but never raised his head when it came to Diana.. Just who was she for him?

“Did you see how withered my wife looked in my absence? How can I ignore her needs? We both are going to spend the whole day in the room. Tell maids to not disturb us even for meals. We would come out when we would be done eating each other.”
