Loved By a Vampire King

Chapter 438 - Into The Back Forest --- Part 1

Siemus was staying in her room as usual. A certain someone was guarding her personally since all the maids were gone to look for that missing pup. Though it was Cameila's fault for being ignorant towards those pups, everyone blamed Ayra for being careless. Some even pitied those pups telling that they were being ill treated by the queen. Siemus was in rage after hearing such gossips and felt bad that she couldn't do anything in this state. Those healers strictly ordered her to stop using magic for a month at least.

As no one was there to look after her, Frenchie had to come inside her room and looked after her until the maids and other staffs return to their own duties. Since then he was sitting on the edge of her bed with an absolute annoying face. He appeared like he was being annoyed just by looking at her face. Well, Siemus didn't hold any good impression by his almighty presence. She kept peeking through the door and waited for her maid anxiously.

After spending moments in silence, Frenchies initiated to talk first,

" You were hilarious back then. Who cry like a baby for drinking medicine, seriously?"

Siemus shot him a hard glare. As casual of Frenchies, he wouldn't let go of this opportunity of pulling her legs. An hour back, Siemus's healer had come to fetch her a bitter medicine. The taste was so horrible that she nearly vomited at that place. She insisted on not taking anymore medicine but Alexander and Elizabeth forced her to drink the rest over portion. But her drama was truly hilarious and she was on the verge of crying.

Siemus retorted casting cold glare at the man who couldn't stop mocking at her,

" So what if I did? Do you know how does it taste? You are always baffling. I was only showing my disinterest."

Frenchies snorted back and rolled his eyes before speaking,

" Yeah, yeah, I saw what you did. What is wrong with your face as if you are annoyed by my presence here?"

Siemus let out a sarcastic laugh. Fluttering her eyelashes unreasonably, she mimicked faking respect towards Frenchies,

" Oh..Then how should I represent my gratitude for being here, Your Highness?"

Though he understood that she addressed him like that way out of mockery, his spine straightened up in pride. Any man would like to hear woman calling him something intimate. Frenchies wasn't exceptional and he knew how to seize the right opportunity.

Instead of getting angry, Frenchies crossed his legs together leisurely. Using his chin dramatically to gesture at her side table, he ordered coldly,

" Give me a glass of wine, peasant."

Siemus was speechless by his words. She had a bottle of fresh wine right beside her table. To kill her boredom in this room, she had instructed a maid to buy fresh wine for her from the market. Siemus clenching her teeth together and forced a smile on her face that shocked Frenchies,

" Sure, Your Highness! Anything For You!"

Frenchies frowned on her words suspiciously but was distracted at the next second when he spotted shadows of lantern on her window's glasses. It seemed like the pup was still not found and the guards were searching through the gardens.

By the time, he brought his eyes to look at Siemus, she was already holding a glass of wine for him with a smile. His brows drew in confusion and he heard her saying in a sweet voice,

" Here you go, my caretaker."

Frenchies opened his mouth to say something but closed his mouth when he saw her eyes fluttering. It was rare to see Siemus acting so sweetly. Though he was really feeling fishy somewhere, no man could refuse when a woman was being really sweet to him.

Frenchies snorted before taking the glass from her hand. Siemus's smile fell when she saw him taking sip from her dear wine. Frenchies took a short sip to judge the taste first. The moment, it slipped inside his tongue, his face turned sour and a rough taste of bitterness engulfed his entire mouth.

Frenchies puked out the wine right at that place and growled at Siemus angrily,

" What rubbish is this thing? Oldie, have you really become old? How can you drink such bad wine? You.."

His eyes widened in rage when he saw her laughing meaningfully. Gnashing his teeth together, he asked through his gritted teeth,

" Oldie!!!! What have you mixed into this wine? Shit!!"

Siemus acted innocently on surface. Pouting her lips together, she responded with an indifferent shrug,

" Just a pinch of my bitter medicine, Peasant."

Frenchies had widened his eyes broadeningly before coughing violently. Shooting her another hateful glare, he snorted hatefully,

" I hate you, Oldie."

Siemus replied instantly without stopping smiling,

" I hate you too, pussycat."

But things weren't getting well in other places of Dixon Palace. After receiving the unknown piece of letter, Jessie had gone to meet the unknown person. Skipping the eyes of guards, she made sure to arrive at the back forest on time and looked around suspiciously.

There was no one here at that moment except the gloomy sky and random wind that shivered her body occasionally, nothing could be heard from that place. Before entering the forest, Jessie reconsidered over her decision twice.

Did she do the right thing to come here? What if it was really something urgent as the letter told?

She wasn't any normal human but a creature of sky. But she had her own fears and boundaries too. Just because she was a powerful Royal Dragon, it didn't mean that she had no enemies. With the number of people that died in her hands, she had probably attracted a good number of enemies towards her already.

After self encouraging herself one more time, she took long but cautious steps into the forest. Her steps were clumsy. With the forward steps that she took slowly, she began to call for the person who asked her to come here,

" Hello..Is anyone here? Hello.."

Jessie continued entering but heard nothing as a response. Her track halted when she had the feeling of someone passing behind her back. She turned around instantly to confirm her delusional thought but saw nothing.

Her heart raced a little violently. Her instinct told her that there was someone behind her before she turned around. Her body tensed up subconsciously and her eyes sharply roamed around the trees that she left behind.

Using the power of her voice, she spoke loudly to the person who was probably playing hide and seek game with her,

" If you think that you can scare me, you are absolutely wrong. Do not forget that I am a princess and my each step is being watched by someone. Come out and talk to me whatever you want to say. Why did you leave a letter in front of my room like a coward?"

Again, she received nothing but silence of forest from there. Her mood worsened and she regretted coming here without telling anyone. But it was too late. As if the intruder could read her mind, the moment she took a step to walk out from there, her head was hurt by someone from her back. In a span of moment, she lost her conscious and fell over the raw leaves with her numb body.

Meanwhile in other part of forest, Ayra was running behind the pup who suddenly began to run so fast that she couldn't match with its step at all. She wondered how did it started running so fast suddenly. But she didn't give up and couldn't ignore her responsibility that she took willingly.

She ran far away from the palace without her knowledge. Her pace stopped abruptly when she invented a hazed covered spot in front of her. Just as she stopped, her pup dissapared into that haze.

She cursed yelling at it one last time,

" Wait!! No!! You!!!"

Her attention was soon diverted when she felt someone standing behind the tree. Half of his body was hidden behind the tree. Standing there, she felt that he was peeking at her sneakily.

Ayra soon stopped going forward and instinctively took few steps back. When she reconfirmed that there was really someone standing, her frown deepened because that person wasn't trying to hide himself and was deliberately seeking for her attention.

Ayra dwelled between finding her pup and the stranger. Taking a look of her back, she noticed that she had come far away from the palace. Her mind tensed up a little and she spoke trying to look behind the tree,

" Who are you? Come out! What are you doing here?"

As far as she knew, this lands belonged to Cedric and commoners weren't allowed to step into this lands. She wondered who could be wandering at this hour.

Her eyes were focused firmly on the person who was hesitating to come out. After a moment of silence, the man finally stepped out from his hiding spot and stood still looking into Ayra's eyes.

Ayra's mouth hung open in disbelief and she managed to squeeze out one word with difficulty,

" Da..Da..Dad..."
