Loved By a Vampire King

Chapter 435 - Coming Back To You!

When Cedric's expression lost its bright color, Oscar smiled victoriously. For years, the secret had been buried and Cedric made sure that no one had any idea about it. But now hearing the same taunting words coming from his father's mouth who could use it against him easily had really given him quite tough time. Unfortunately Cedric wasn't a good choice to mess it. To be sitting on his throne at such young age, people often misunderstood his abilities of tricking others. Whatever, it wasn't his task to bring some useful logics inside his father's brain. If someone chooses to stay blind, no one can open their eyes.

Cedric gave him a hilarious laughter which was much louder than Oscar's and Oscar's expression soon turned into a bewildering one. Cedric replied shaking his head while still laughing like he had heard a good joke to laugh at,

" Oh dear father! Is that what mother told you? To accuse me for not being a true Demon? Well, I would like to tell you in advance that those threats doesn't work for me. What is the preveilege of being a true Demon when I have the power of killing him?"

Oscar looked troubled by his question. But unfortunate to say that he had been brainwashed to stay firm on his own judgemental thoughts badly. Oscar sneered while answering to Cedric,

" You...are too arrogant, Cedric and It will soon destroy you. This place.. everything belongs to true Demon. If you don't agree to my request, I will open the path of hell for you. You hear me? I want Jasmine back in my life. I have to repay her."

Cedric only smiled mysteriously upon his words. Leaning back against the chair more comfortably, he made sure to keep aiming those knives at his dear father who came to kill Ayra in another word. Cedric replied slowly with a devilish smile that suited his face well,

" Thanks for the compliment, father but I have no intention of repaying her with your foolish ideas. If you have nothing else to discuss about, you may leave or my guards will show you the lead."

Failing to convince his son after several trials, Oscar was impatient and was busting in anger. His sanity became bold when he believed that no matter how much disagreement they had, Cedric would never dare to kill him in this castle at least.

Oscar took a step forward despite the rows of knives hanging around him and barked clenching his fists aside,

" Believe me or not, I will take her away from you because you deserve it, Cedric. You deserve to stay lonely like me. You..aah.."

The rest of his words had been stuck by a sudden action that made his soul almost leaving his body right at that moment. One of those flying knife made its way towards Oscar's palm which was holding the edge of table behind his back. Oscar's breath caught in his lungs and with his widened eyes, he dropped his eyes down on the table to look for the knife. The knife didn't cut off his skin but it was stuck right between his two forefingers dangerously.

His rage boiled inside and he looked up his eyes to glare at Cedric whose face had no sign of smile anymore. Cedric spoke coldly without tearing his attention from the knife that was stuck between his father's fingers,

" I wasn't joking with you, Father."

This time, Oscar swallowed knowing that his demon had come in surface to respond him now. Fearing for his own life, Oscar made a comment from his reluctantance lowly,

" I..I ..am.. thinking about.. another..way..."

Cedric didn't look convinced by Oscar's last words. He knew no matter how much he tried, Oscar would stay unmoved from his decision until he faced a dead end.

As the two were immersed in heating up new source of argument, a figure was standing right outside the door with a slight agaped expression. It was Jessie who vaguely heard from the maid that Oscar had made a sudden visit in Dixon Palace. Though she hated this man to core for leaving his little children alone against a cruel world, she couldn't hold back the temptation of watching her father once for a while. After all, blood is thicker than water. She followed him here to meet him but didn't expect to hear their argument. Although she meant no evasdropping, the conversation froze her feet on that right spot when she heard his father saying that their mother could return from death.

As if her whole world had shook in anticipation, she kept on listening them by standing there with a numb body. Her emotions became so overwhelmed that she missed many important parts from their argument. With her tears begging to fall down, Jessie murmured lowly,

" Mother... can..can you really come back to us?"

Back in the garden of Palace, Ayra and Elizabeth were showing those two pups the garden enthusiastically. Those little ones were very active and always ran from here to there playfully which made them exhausted to guard against their mischievousness. Ayra panted slightly when she just moved the pup into other side from the pool. She remembered what Cedric told her that these pups couldn't be hurt in this palace.

Thinking about Cedric who had gone to speak with Oscar, Ayra's heart subconsciously turned worried. She didn't know why she couldn't stop caring about his business. Dear God, what did this demon did to her during this days?

Ayra rubbed her temples worryingly and saw Elizabeth running after those pups to keep them safe from any harmful incidents. Her mind couldn't stop worrying for Cedric and she decided to give a short visit since Elizabeth was already there for the pups.

Ayra called her friend from back, notifying her before making her way back inside the palace,

" Elizabeth! Can you look after them for a while? I will be coming back within a minute."

Elizabeth scowled in exhaustion but agreed anyways since Ayra would be coming back soon. She assured keeping her eyes stuck on those pups who didn't stop running for a second,

" Yeah, Yeah.. Just be quick, Princess. Your pups are real trouble."

Ayra chuckled before turning around to take large steps into the palace leaving Elizabeth with her pups alone in the garden.

As she crossed the hallway for the room in where Cedric was supposed to be chatting with his father, Ayra kept walking absentmindedly. Before she could go near the doorway, Cedric was the first to walk out from the room with the door slamming shut. Such annoying noise startled Ayra who was lost in her own thoughts. When her eyes pulled up to look at the way, her body tensed up naturally. Cedric was looking beyond furious. His eyes were dark and murderous as if he was looking for someone to tear apart.

As her pace halted in confusion whether to go forward or talk to him later, Cedric eyes met her troubled expression. Like the first rain after summer, his expression melted by her appearance. When he saw how worried she was, his heart couldn't stop but feeling warm.

He took large steps on her way and smiled knowingly. Towering his height on her, he spoke in a teasing voice,

" Why are you here, Princess? Well, Can I flatter myself telling that you are worried about me and so you came here to check on yourself?"

Ayra battled to find a proper dialect as answer. She was surprisingly worried about his emotions but admitting it right in front of him wasn't her choice either. She dodged the question after taking a look of that closed door,

" Where is father? Did he leave? You two.. Were you guys fighting.. again?"

Cedric exhaled a deep sigh. His mouth curled up a little before whispering softly,

" Is it so hard to tell me that you were worried about me?"

Ayra couldn't retort back this time and bit her lips together shyly. She heard him speaking again after letting out a low chuckle,

" Don't worry, he won't be getting anything that he wants...not at least what belongs to me only.."

Ayra looked up at him blankly only to meet his intense eyes that were on her. Her lips parted to speak something but before her words could come out, Cedric suddenly streched out his hand to grip the right side of her cheeks.

Ayra froze for a moment and felt his caressing that slided down on her lips a bit roughly. His thumb brushed on her dry lips when he uttered his words in a different posseive voice,

" This lips can only be kissed by me, Princess. Between you and me, if the world dares to make a block, I will destroy it too, Princess."

Her heart took a flip and the determination behind his voice sounded foreign that made her shrieking in fear and excitement at the same time. Cedric took a moment to study her lips before whispering softly,

" I will be late, tonight. Don't wait for me."

Ayra narrowed her eyes before asking,

" Where are you going?"

Cedric didn't answer to her question instead assured with a charming smile,

" No matter where I go,I will come back to you, Princess."
