Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 374 The Woman In The Smog

The morning rays were falling on his hair making them shine like it was made of gold. His fair skin was glistening. He looked so charming.

He had a frown on his lips due to the light and moved his hands to cover his eyes so that he could sleep more peacefully.

“Are you leaving me just like that?” he asked as if the girl was betraying him after using him enough. The thought brought an amused smile on the face of Anne but it warmed her heart too.

She finally knows why Hazel was so happy after returning to Rafael and why she ended up spending a night with her whenever she returned from trouble or was too happy.

She felt the touch of the man warm and protecting so she leaned further into it.

“It has been more than a day since I left the palace. I have to go and see how things are going.” she explained. Though she herself felt like it would be better to stay here, “and Hazel would be worried for me.”

The man sighed. He rubbed her back and then kissed her forehead with a pampering look on his face.

“I can never force you to do anything you do not want but that does not mean I want to let you go!” he stared back at her when she raised a brow, “i want you to come back here tonight. If not then i will come there and have my way with you in their palace.” The look in his eyes was telling her that it was not an empty threat.

But why did it feel like a threat? He only wanted to spend another night with her and after the experience of last night, she would be happy to oblige?

She shook her head to rub away the strange feeling from her heart. He was just throwing tantrums like a child because he was upset.

With that thought, she smiled and wrapped her hands around his neck,

“It is not only you who want us to spend time together.” She felt like she needed to assure the man or else he would explode by his jealousy and insecurities. “I love you and I want to make love to you again too.” with that she kissed him.

The kiss was a simple one when he held the back of her hands and leaned her to get better access to her mouth before letting her go.

She waited for him to say “I love you too!” but he continued to rub her skin with his thumb and kissed any past of her body that was in her reach.

The man was so busy feeling her that he even forgot to say that he loved her when she said “I love you” to him for the first time.

The thought only brought another smile on her face. “So I will be back tonight to make love to you. Would it be fine now?” she asked as she cupped his cheeks.

He looked like a kid whose favorite toy was being taken away with that disappointed face of his. Though he nodded, he did not seem to be in good spirits.

“Shall I stay if you do not want me to go? I will send a letter to Hazel instead?” she asked in the end, as she did not like how he was sulking when he took a deep sigh and shook his head.

“I have to leave for the council too. There will be a hunt competition in three days. We have to make sure there would be no mistake since this program would decide how many hearts were won by the lady.” He looked calmer but she could still feel his reluctance to part with her as he could not keep his hands away even for a second.

With some effort and so many promises, they finally parted. Declan continued to wave his hands for her even when the carriage had left long ago.

After a long hour, he walked back into the room with a cold look on his face but just as he sat down on the sofa back, his expressions changed instantly and a smirk formed on his lips.

As if he was enjoying his own joke, the smile on his face only continued to increase.

The air on his left side flickered as if there was a ghost when he titled his head.

There was no shock registered in his eyes even when a face started to form in the thin air.

The old witch stared at the man sitting leisurely and fumed.

“You are taking a rest in this room and here I am tied in chains in this underground prison!! You!! Stand up and help me in getting free this instant!” she shouted at the man who just yawned and stretched his body as if he was too tired.

He looked at her as if she was nothing but a pest that was disturbing his sleep.

“That is not part of our deal!” With those words, he turned to the other side and closed his eyes as if he was trying to sleep but the woman was disturbing him.

“Part of the deal? She laughed, This laughter was different from all other laughter that a person could have. This was genuinely bloodthirsty laughter.

“Alright! Then tell me, what have you done to complete our deal too? All I am seeing you is sleeping or traveling whenever I contact you! Is that how you are going to achieve the mission? You have not even found a way to contact that bitch!” she fumed, if she would have been present physically, she would have beaten the man, and she would have turned him into a toad when he could have rested all day for all she cared.

“Who said that?” he asked with a head. “I have not only met them but last night i slept with your eldest daughter.”
