Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 76 [Bonus chapter]

“My lady, what are you searching for?” the maid stared at the lady who had the habit of reading but today she was almost drowned in the books that the maid even had trouble seeing her face!

Hazel frowned but did not reply as she continued to search the books. Her eyes were frantically looking at books as if she was searching for elixir in them.

The maid shrugged her shoulders but just when she was about to turn a loud bang resounded!

She turned back and was stunned to see Hazel had banged her head on the table!

“My lady, are you okay? Shall I call a physician?” she took hurried steps towards Hazel whose face was looking dim and pale as if her soul had left her body.

“No! I am fine! Leave me alone!” though hesitated, the maid nodded her head and left the library after giving one last glance to her listless empress!

“If only there had been a single book that could help me!” Hazel sighed as she stared at the sheer amount of books she had checked already._.

From the books on history of witches to the importance of the area where Rafael was thinking of making trade routes!

She had checked all of it yet she did not have any information about the witches that looked genuine or could be trusted.

How would she survive in the unknown land then? Whenever the thought crossed her mind she already imagined a woman in the dark cloak was trying to strangle her!

“Why am I so doomed!!” she wanted to shout but knew that it would be of no use!

Whenever she thought that her life was finally sailing smoothly, a roller coaster waited for her around the corner.

No! She would not give up! With that thought, she stood up again and walked towards the shelf where all the books related to witches were!

“Are you looking for something particular, my lady?” She almost jumped up from her place and turned back to see who had called her suddenly when she noticed the old man whom she often sees there.

He must be the staff managing the library, she assumed as she had only seen him here!

“Yes, I am looking for the history or anything related to the Triarte land or the Lawrenstine Empire!” He was her only hope! If he could help her with the book then she would be mentally prepared for the future.

But the man took a step away abruptly as if he had seen the ghost and stared at her as if she had gone crazy!

“My lady, I apologize but I can not be of any help!” with that he bowed his head and turned to leave the library with hurried steps making her stunned!

He behaved as if she had asked him about his death! Why was he so frightened! The thought bewildered her but confused her too!

“Wait! Are you trying to deny the empress!” if he would not reply to her normally, then she could only force him by her powers!

After all, it was a matter of her life and death when the man halted. His face had already lost all the colors when he turned to look at him and shook his head,

“I did not dare, my lady. But the information you are trying to find is not in the library!” She frowned when she saw him bowing his head and apologizing to her when the library had more than a thousand books on cooking! Then how could it be that it did not have a single book on the trade routes of the empire!

“What do you mean? Why is there not a single book on this trade route?” The way Natalie was talking about it, she felt as if the place had strong significance that she was ready to stake her life and dignity for the trade!

“Yes, because my lord had ordered us a long ago to burn all the books related to that area!

Not only in the palace but there would be no book about it in the whole empire!” instead of reliving her, his words only make her more confused!

She did not understand what was so special about this land!? If he knew that there was a coven of witches, why did he want to go there in the first place!

Could it be that he had a beef with someone there and was going to annihilate them!

If he wants to go then go! Why was he dragging her with him!

“Do you know the reason!” his face was telling that he knew everything.

He was not able to look at her but his eyes were roaming all around when he shook his head and Hazel realized that he was not going to tell her the truth no matter what she would do!

“I think it is because the poor never bought from the trade route and the empire was suffering losses!

But how the relationship was improving, it might start again!”

she was glad that she took her stance! At least now she knew something if not everything!

“Then how shall we search about the land?”

“My lady, that would not be possible and I advise you to not look into the matter personally, it would be the reason for your death too!” she blinked as she stared at the man who was trying to scare her to death and scoffed!

“You have no idea how strong my will to survive is! Since you can not help me, you can go!” the man looked at her with hesitation and in the end sighed as if he was facing a big trouble and muttered,

“I can not help you but every person in the royal family can! They were there when the incident happened!”
