Loved By a Vampire King

Chapter 451 - The Call

The following morning came with a fuzzy weather camouflaging around DAVINA's kingdom. The resthouse began to turn empty since most of their activities continued at night only. Besides those people with malicious motives preferred to appear at late night.

Jessie was the first one to wake up from her last night hangover. Since she was habitual in drinking, the aftermath effect wasn't terrible to her. She had only slight headache with a gush of dizziness. When her eyes snapped open to glance around, her expression became perplexed. Shanz was sleeping right after her. His face was calm, relaxed like the pure young prince whom she met years ago.

Her hands itched to touch his face but precautions were better than injection. Once she crossed the boundary, she would be trapped in his love spell again. It was more tolerable to think that they both hated each others.

Shanz didn't show any sign of waking up. It was perfect time her to escape from him. Jessie got up from the bed carefully from his side. Without wasting anymore time, she breathed few words before making her way out,

" Goodbye, Shanz. May we never meet again!"

She dissapared with careful and large steps before he woke up from his sleeping. Shanz woke up half an hour later after she left. His eyes darted around anxiously but he saw no one around. The flash of dissapointment were evident in his eyes. That heart wrenching feeling turned into anger as he fisted his hands aside.

He stood up from the bed enraging and headed outside only to summon his butler loudly,

" Butler.. Butler.."

That young man ran over to him with his dear life. Looking at the prince's darkened expression, his body tensed up. Shanz growled at him in frustration,

" Where is Princess Jessie? How did she leave? Why did you let her go so early in the morning? Why don't I know about it?"

His new butler weren't completely aware of the incidents that they had. He found it quite strange of Shanz's behavior towards Jessie. He guarded her last night and was now frustrated over her sudden leave. His butler was patience while answering to his questions,

" Pardon, Your Highness! Princess Jessie didn't want to wake you up since you were sleeping. She expressed her gratitude for us and left for Basarisk."

Shanz bit his lips together tightly. It wasn't the exact reason behind her leaving. She simply didn't want to face him anymore. But his questions were left unanswered. He saw the ring that he gifted her on her birthday.

Why did she still wear the ring if she hated him so much? Why didn't she throw it off?

Meanwhile, a red envelope with the seal of Balvina's castle appeared on the doorstep of Basarisk's Palace. Frenchies's expression hardened even though he didn't look into the contents. A news from Balvina could never be anything good for them. He waited at the breakfast table with the letter for Cedric's arrival.

Cedric was crossing Jessie's room when he noticed that the door was left half ajar. He peaked inside casually but didn't spot Jessie anywhere around. Confusion puzzled through his features vividly. Jessie stayed outside for the whole night wasn't uncommon but no matter where did she go, she made sure to return at her room before sunrise. Isabella gave her the rule and she had to obey it unwillingly.

Cedric spotted Jessie's personal maid who was making her way towards the room to clean the room as usual. She was startled by Cedric's presence and bowed at him longingly. Cedric spoke looking at her sharply,

" Where is the young Princess?"

The maid blinked at him confusingly. She didn't dare to utter that Jessie didn't return to her room after that mysterious letter from last night. She went back to sleep after giving that letter and didn't know what happened later on. She lied to save herself,

" That.. Your Highness..She didn't return last night.."

Cedric hummed at her response. Though it was a bit unsual, he thought that Isabella's absence in the palace made her unruly again. He left for the breakfast table and the maid secretly sighed in relief.

But where did Princess go?

Cedric spotted Frenchies downstairs when he came down at the same the obvious red envelope caught his attention. A frown appeared between his temples when he questioned Frenchies,

" What is this shit again?"

Frenchies shurgged his shoulders unknowingly and passed him the letter before stepping back politely. Cedric unfolded the letter with a permanent frown and scowled after reading through the Contents.

" The Welfare Board Of Balvina has asked for your presence in regards of the harm that caused by your wife in Mystic Grove. Make sure to bring her with you. They want to have a little chitchat with her ----- Robert Arnaldo Dixon"

Cedric grounded his teeth together. He had already told him that he would bear the punishment on behalf of Ayra but his uncle was insist on confronting each others openly. Very Good! He had a better play to watch out soon.

As he finished reading the letter with a smirk, Jessie entered into the hallway. She looked little haggard, lost and most importantly absentminded. She didn't even notice that Cedric was present there.

Cedric narrowed his eyes at her way. She wasn't looking very good in that state. After all, they were sibling and he couldn't stop himself from showing concern,

" Jessie, where were you last night?"

His voice pulled her thoughts back to reality. She ignored him as usually and muttered before making her way upstairs,

" None of your business!"

She couldn't even take a step forward when Cedric spoke raising his voice loudly,

" It wasn't my business until now..but.."

Jessie turned looking hard into his questioning eyes. He didn't interrogate her often and today he was being too noisy surprisingly.

Cedric eyed on her outfit from head to toe before stating slowly,

" May I know why are you wearing men's shoe?"
