Chapter 330 Find Their Mother
Chapter 330 Find Their Mother
“It seems that she had deceived her one more time, faking her death.” Hazel looked at the sky with a pearl of laughter as she shook her head, “I would have expected no less than from the mother.” while Hazel was laughing Anne’s face scrunched up so much as if she had eaten something so bitter.
“No! I have seen how she had taken the main position in the ritual and just when you died, Rafael had reached there and killed all of them with a rampage.” her voice was trying to assure herself more than hazel.
“He had killed all of them by scuking them dry. They were too weak to rebel. I was worried that he would turn into a witch too after drinking so much blood from witches. There is no way that they were alive.” she shook her head again while her body started to tremble.
“Tsk! Aren’t you alive and so am i? Why could they not be alive too?” Her eyes scanned the whole area again and soon she walked to another shop leaving the confused Celina being who tried to follow them but felt someone holding her hands and turned to look at Luhan with a questioning look in her eyes.
“What are they even doing? And that maid.. Who is she to talk so informally to the princess?” Luhan had the same thoughts in his mind but he was sure they would not get any answer if they asked.
They have read about the ritual that was performed to kill the dark witch by the first generation of witches that have lived for more than a thousand years.
But this one mistake cost them not only their life but the unending wars between witches and vampires.
That was why, when he came to know about Hazel, he decided to collaborate this time.
More than her powers, he was confident that she was the reason for the war, so only she could end it by convincing her husband.
For that, he had found a few nobles and impressed them with his powers so that they could help him in bringing hazel to his side.
He did not care who would rule the empire and if she would be the queen as long as they did not need to run.
It took a lot of courage after knowing what happened to Lucian. Yet this is getting more and more complex.
His deep eyes turned deeper and his face covered with frost that even Celina who was still waiting for his reply, flinched at his touch.
“I do not know, my lady. But I am sure that we will not be able to know even if we will follow them. And this place is not safe for you.” he said in the same warm voice she was habitual of.
Only then her expressions eased and she smiled back. But when she turned to look at the dark alley where Hazel had disappeared, her eyes sank.
“Are you sure we can trust her? She is a witch. Only God knows what she was upto?” There was worry and distrust in her eyes when Luhan looked at her with disdain but still placed a hand on her shoulders.
“We do not have any choice, my lady. She is our last hope to keep vampires at bay. After all, she is the wife of the lord.” he assured her when she sighed but nodded her head.
“I will trust your decision then.” she said in a voice full of affection with a bashful face.
“Then you shall return to the palace, my lady. I shall go and look for them.” Although Celina was reluctant, she could see that everyone was looking at her with strange or vicious eyes, so she nodded.
Even she felt appalled by the land.
On the other side,
“Do you think it is just a coincidence that a witcher has brought us here? What if it was a trap?” asked Anne as they found another gem which had the power of their mother.
Their mother was best at making protection spells. That was how their family used to earn in the past.
“Even if that is the case? Do you not want to meet her anymore?” asked hazel with a thrilled face.
She had thought she would never be able to see those who had killed her. Though she did not have any pain of her death since the memories were broken, it did not mean that she would forgive her murderers.
Not to forget that the woman was her own mother.
“Hazel, it would be better that we do not try to find her.” Anne held the arms of hazel.
A look of craziness was in her eyes that always scared Anne. She had tried her best to keep Hazel away from her past, but would have thought one by one every grave would open and all the skeletons would be out again.
She was buying everyone that had traces of their mother without any thought. What if it was a trap, what if their mother had enchanted these things with a forbidden magic that could lead them into trouble again.
“Anne! Do you not want to hug your mother? Do not be rude. She is waiting for us. It is only right that we go and look for her.” said Hazel with a tone that Anne could not recognize.
She tried to hold her again but it was late, Hazel had already walked to the next shop where the essence was too strong.
“My lady, are you here to buy a slave?” asked the man with a flattering but lecherous smile on her face as he gave a look to hazel from head to toe as if he was analysing his chances to make her a slave too. But looking at her rich clothes and confident face, he let go of that thought,
“Yes, but I am looking for a special slave. A young witch with silver hair that can make enchanted jewels and do protection spells.”
