Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 267 [Bonus chapter] Kill Her

Hazel could feel the intense eyes of Lucian staring at her the moment she came out of the carriage.

He had taken the initiative to hold her hands but she shook her head.

“We are in the territory of my father and I am still the wife of Rafael. Though he would leave me, it still has time and we have to behave that way for the time being.” she warned. She had expected him to understand that much already.

But she felt bad when she noticed how his face filled with disappointment but soon he nodded his head and stood properly.

“It’s just that I am overwhelmed with happiness. I have never thought that I would be able to walk with you hand in hand.” he muttered softly as he bowed his head and then took a few steps back.

Hazel wanted to assure him but before she could say anything, she noticed two men coming out of the palace in council uniform.

The red silk coat over their white shirt and black pants._.

They stood in their tracks when they noticed Hazel standing in front of them. Their expressions turned colder and a look of viciousness filled their eyes.

“Are you Hazel, the wife of lord Rafael?” asked one of them as his eyes raked on face and traveled slowly to her toes with a look of disgust in his eyes when Hazel nodded slowly.

“I couldn’t believe that Lord Vincent is afraid of a weak woman like you!” said another with a look of disdain in his eyes when she noticed that one of them had already taken place just behind her.

If he wanted, he could hold her from her waist and drag her in the dark but she was relieved that Lucian was standing there and would act if needed.

“Come with me, we need to ask you a few questions.” they ordered her with an arrogant tone and started walking towards the chamber of Vincent and she smirked.

Men! Why do they always think that the other person was weak since she is a woman.

Lucian was about to attack one of them when Hazel shook her head. There would be nothing better than getting a live drama.

“My slave would come with me for guarding me.” She added slowly when the man stopped in their tracks and only then paid some attention to Lucian but did not feel a threat from him since Vincent would have personal guards and his chamber was separate.

So, even if they tried to shout, no voice would reach out.

“Suit yourself.” he nodded his head and started walking again while the other one waited for them to walk so that he could walk behind them.

“Use the spell of darkness and run when the time comes. I want you to collect everyone in front of his room when I give you the signal.” she whispered softly in the tone no one could hear since she knew that Lucian could still hear her due to his control over winds.

He nodded his head softly as they almost reached Vincent’s chamber surrounded by a dozen knights.

Just as she entered, she could hear the sound of an argument.

“I do not know all this. I am just warning you that I would tell the truth if you tried to cross me.

Why have you mixed less poison that she is still alive? What if she would give a statement against us?” Estella was shouting while pacing in the hall when Hazel entered with both councilmen.

“You do not need to worry about it. We have brought her with us to teach her how to speak in front of the council.” the man replied with a gleeful expression when Estella and Vincent turned to look at her.

They were surprised to see that Hazel had come to them even when she knew the truth.

“You! I was not expecting your submission after your ploy of the morning.” Vincent looked at her meek face and narrowed his eyes on her.

He was not going to be fooled by her naive expressions again. She was a witch with those daggers in her hands.

“But since you are here. You have made everything simple.“ He was prepared for her this time with so many guards and knights around him.

He turned back to look at the councilman who was looking proud and waiting for his reward.

“Has anyone seen her coming here?” The councilman exchanged glances but shook their head.

There was no one except his knights who would not complain against them.

“Then kill her. Let them think that she ran away as she never wanted to marry Rafael but someone robbed her and killed her in the town.

Throw her body in the outskirts of the town later to make the story more convincing.” he ordered in a cold voice when his eyes filled with viciousness.

He walked closer with an evil smirk on his face when both councilmen came closer and held her hands so that she could not run away after hearing the announcement of her death.

His hands were placed on her chin as he forced her to look into her eyes and laughed when she stood there helplessly at his mercy.

“I wanted to keep you alive Hazel. I really wanted you to be one of my women. You are beautiful just like a delicate flower that needed to be placed in the vase of my room and I could enjoy watching it wilt slowly on my mercy.

But too bad, you did not play accordingly. I could have given you all the luxuries and a chance to serve me to your best.

But you.. Ingrate! You tried to attack me in the morning. Have you seriously thought that you could kill me?

What a fool! I did not know how you survived the fire in the woods. But this was your good luck.

Now you can not escape your fate from here.”
