Chapter 150 - We Don't Need Her Help
Roselyn recognized the woman who walked inside, it was the vampire who used to threaten her and made her and John have the first argument when John called her a pawn for his plan.
She walked with a swaying walk and when she saw John her eyes sparkled, as soon as her gaze traveled toward his brother and his father her jaw dropped and her eyes widened.
"it's true, you're alive." She whispered gazing at William, John rolled her eyes. "What are you doing here?" John asked stretching his hand toward his brother who was already charging waiting to attack. The woman's gaze moved toward her and scanned her upside down, "and you're alive as well, unfortunately." She said but her gaze seemed serious. Roselyn glowered at her, she didn't like her. She was so beautiful and at the same time so annoying, she seemed like one of the thousands of ladies obsessed with the King, the only difference was that they were humans but she was a vampire and she shared a past with him.
"If you come here to annoy me and my wife then I suggest you leaving." John knitted his eyebrows and his eyes flashed with red as his jaw clenched. He had enough of people trying to hinter their love.
"Calm down little Romeo, I just heard supernatural creatures attacked you and I thought you needed help." She said walking closer to John and tilting her head waiting for an answer.
"We will go to Kratez and reestablish the order." John replied, the woman laughed loudly but when she noticed nobody laughed she blinked few times, "you're not joking?"
John rolled his eyes almost running out of his patience when she intervened. "I visited Kratez and it became a land of chaos and destruction, I won't allow you to go there, John."
After hearing her being preoccupied with John Roselyn couldn't take it anymore and felt the need to reply, "you won't allow him to?"
The lady gazed at Roselyn for few seconds before walking few steps toward her, when enough was close she whispered, "after all the years we spent together I am allowed to decide what is best for him and what is not."
"Maybe you should let his wife do that since he now has one." Roselyn narrowed her eyes leaning closer to her to show her she didn't fear her at all.
The woman smirked and giggled slightly before turning around toward John, "I will help you then. I won't let you get killed."
"Good," John said, and as soon as Roselyn flinched around to glower at him he widened his arms. "We can hire more people to the squad to have a better chance to win." John soon explained himself and silence fell in the room while Roselyn still gazed at her husband with knitted eyebrows and a furious gaze.
William broke the silence with a laugh, catching the gaze of everyone's in the room, the man gestured with his hand, and just when he caught his breath he spoke, "I am sorry. I am sorry. It reminded me about my wife and I miss her jealousy sometimes. It shows she cares."
"Roselyn shouldn't have many reasons to be jealous though. Am I right?" John glanced at the woman who was enchanted gazing at him.
"Tell Rose what I told you." He continued, and again silence fell in the room, Roselyn's heart for a second skipped a beat as she imagined the worst.
"I told her that I didn't want to see her anymore since I am married and I want to be loyal to her."
When Roselyn heard what she said she suddenly remembered how to breathe and smiled hugely, he did that? It meant he was willing to be serious with her and that would explain all the anger that woman had for Roselyn. She was the one jealous because she saw someone else steal John's heart in few months and make him fall in love with her to be willing to sacrifice a relationship of years for her.
Just that thought drove the vampire woman so much crazy that she faked the most forceful smile, "yea I forgot about that."
Roselyn hardly believed that, how would she forget such a thing? Maybe she didn't accept that, Roselyn thought to herself.
"Are you still willing to join?" Roselyn said gazing at her with a challenging look as if she wanted her not to join anymore and finally leave them in peace.
"Of course I am," the woman replied with his gaze still straight toward John.
Roselyn hoped to hear otherwise but that woman or creature, whatever she was seemed not willing to step beside and let them be. Maybe she just wanted to help yet Roselyn didn't think they didn't need her help at all.
"Anyway the meeting is in two days so..." Roselyn gestured with her hand like if she was refraining to say the word begone.
John bit his inner cheek like if he tried not to giggle at how funny Roselyn was when acting jealous. "I am hungry, where are the maids?" the woman said ignoring Roselyn's gentle invite to leave, and gazing around in search of someone who could bring her food.
"They all escaped during the attack, maybe you should go search for food on your way out." John's brother intervened finally supporting Roselyn as not surprisingly wasn't liking that woman either just like he disliked everyone on the face of Earth.
William cleared his voice to soften the atmosphere, "guys, why don't we act well mannered and let's offer her some food. John bring her some meat, I am sure she will appreciate."
The woman smiled and crawling happily she reached the table and sat on Roselyn's chair.
John listened to his father and brought the woman some meal that she grabbed with both her hands not minding her manners at all and bitten a big bite from it. It was raw meat and Roselyn couldn't stop herself from flinching around and grimaced disgust.
The woman chewed with her mouth opened and gaze at Roselyn, "so Roselyn, did you find out what creature you are?" she asked in a curious tone of voice and panic fell in the room.. Roselyn swallowed down, she was probably the last person she had to know about her secret identity.
