Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 285 He Ran Away

The soft rays of light fell on her skin, making her frown. She turned to the other side and hid her face in the pillow she was holding.

Nudging her face on it, she inhaled when a smell full of wet forest filled her nostrils.

Hazel furrowed her brows and moved her hands on the pillow tracing its corners when she felt the taut muscles on her hands when she heard the husky voice near her ears,

“What are you trying to do ” that voice that damn voice, was she dreaming, no she had stopped dreaming about him in this life, hadn’t she!

Was she dreaming, because of last night’s argument or the way he held her after that? These days she had often dreamt about the events of the past but it was always a memory that was important for her, not her leisure activities like sleeping or eating.

Or could it be that Bella had kept her memory of sleeping in his arms as a treasure too!_.

She furrowed her brows further and moved her hands to check if he was real or her dream, so she moved and pinched when the man held her hand.

“What kind of fantasies do you have, huh? Or is it the way you like to greet others in the morning.” his grip was enough proof that Hazel was not dreaming, She opened her eyes in stark terror filled face, as she realized he was still in her bed. She had thought that he would leave once she fell asleep.

“What are you doing here?” She was utterly annoyed when She saw their body was just inches away, She could even feel his breath over her face. But what irritated her more was the effect it was leaving on her.

Her hands itched to push him away but at the same time to pull him closer and kiss him. Wait? Was that how they wished each other good morning in the past?

For a moment, she was curious and wanted to ask him but she closed her mouth before that as she knew that he would only kiss her and lie about it and she would never know the truth.

“Why are you in my bed, also in this open robe? ” Hazel asked through gritted teeth as she glared at him and tried to move her hands away but he was holding them tightly in their place while his other hands reached her waist and pulled her closer.

Hazel would have never touched his bare chest and pinched his.. If he would have been wearing clothes! Or better if he would not have been in her bed.

“Shush, it is still early. Come here and sleep more. We both are tired after the events of the past few days.“ He pulled her closer in his arms and hid his face in the corner of her neck and soon his breathing turned even but she was sure that he was not asleep.

His voice was husky, and his warm breaths touched her skin, and all the hairs of her body stood up.

After the truth of their past life came out, this was the closest proximity she was sharing with him. To say that she was not affected would be a lie, a lie that even he could catch easily.

“What are you doing in my bed, go to your chamber, if you want to sleep.” she grumbled, how could he! Only last night was she asking him to free her, and now, now he was in her bed and that also in a loose robe, showing off his tout muscles to me, did he take her as a joke!

He opened his eyes, there was a worried reaction on his face when she tried to pull him away but failed.

‘Ah! Anne had already taken more than half of the unstable energy from my body and I must have spent the rest last night.

If I had known that I was going to spend all of my energy, I would not have asked her to consume it.’ She regretted it when she felt weaker.

She had to train this body or it would be often that she would deplete herself and feel weak and tired.

“Are you still not feeling well?” he asked when he did not get any reply from her and she rolled her eyes.

“Why? Were you waiting to be thrown on the ceiling or this time you wanted the taste of plain walls on the left side?” her voice was full of sarcasm since only that was what she could do to keep her feelings and wild thoughts in check.

Her tired body would not be able to fight with his strength, so she stopped trying.

A tinge of worry filled his face but he knew that he made a big mistake by telling her that he would leave her here. She was not going to accept his apology easily. And till then he would only be a fool to expect a proper reply from her.

“Good, now sleep more. I am feeling lethargic too.” she raised a brow as his reply! Vampire and lethargic.

“When was the last time you had your meal?” She wanted to stay cold and did not show any concern in her voice but failed when she noticed a huge smile forming on his face and he nudged his face on her neck further as if her scent would fill him up too.

“Last night! But stop worrying about me and rest or I will start feeding you but this time my meal would not be blood.” did he need to be so shameless! She wanted to harrumph coldly and threw him away but she pushed his head and turned to the other side instead.

He didn’t mind since she was still in his arms and now resting properly, with a smile he leaned closer to her.

“Knock, knock”

“My lord, the council is asking for your presence in an urgent matter. Crown prince Vincent.. He ran away when the fire broke last night.”
