Loved By a Vampire King

Chapter 506 - The Search For Answers!

Deeper night greeted them outside once they came out of Balvina's Royal Castle. Cedric had been silent all this time and didn't share about where they were heading for. Naturally, Ayra was curious to know about their destination but she promised to stay quiet as Balvina's castle wasn't a secure place for discussion.

Her lips pouted, staring up at him frowning,

" You still haven't tell me what is going on."

He chuckled at her words and leant aside to whisper into her ears,

"I am going to meet someone who can speak about your mark. Isn't that you wanted to know always?"

Confusion crossed across her feature but soon it was faded away since she had her curiosity of knowing about her mark always. Having second thought, she was beginning to feel nervous.

What if it defines anything bad?

Cedric noticed the mental stress that she was having inside. His lips pulled upward and he used his two fingers to bring her chin close to his mouth. Before she could process with his action, his lips claimed her lips into a searing kiss for a few moments.

Pink blushes creepted on her cheeks after the kiss indeed and she blurted narrowing her eyes a little,

" Why did you kiss me all of sudden?"

Cedric gave her his best smile. Now that, she belonged to him fully, he wouldn't allow her to be sad. He replied shrugging and scanning his surrounding sharply,

" Taking your stress away. Come here, Princess. We don't have all night to continue our kissing."

Ayra rolled her eyes but followed him closely, obeying his command. She didn't know how they were transported so fast and quickly. Most of the times, she relied on the ability of her wings but Cedric seemed to posses by born with the power. Until now, she didn't even know what whether he had wings or not.

Within a blink of eye, Balvina's castle dissapared behind them and her eyes were welcomed with darkness, crickets chirped around the place. Ayra whipped her head around, trying to see past through the darkness that engulfed them from around.

She whispered drawing closer to Cedric who was right after her,

" What are we doing here?"

Cedric looked down at her, smiling and tugged her closer replying,

" Don't be afraid! You might see many things but everything is just an illusion. Let's find the person who is expecting our visit."

Cedric wasn't lying when he told her that everything surrounding here was just another illusion. After they walked inside side by side together, Ayra noticed a strange change in the weather. Deeper part of their path was turning foggy and much darker than before. She wondered how a person could live in such place but made another discovery after few minutes of walking.

Ayra had a feeling that they weren't alone at that place. There were eyes who were watching, observing over them when they were walking into the deepest part. To her surprise, her powerful vision couldn't see through the darkness and had only this instinct feeling that there were others, spying on them. She continued walking, tried to brush off such weird feeling but it continued increasing because she was now hearing whispers.

Indeed there were someone else except them! She could feel those invisible eyes, unheard whisper in her instinct. She stopped Cedric midway in case they were heading for any unknown danger,

" Your Highness, don't.. don't you feel that there are someone else around except us?"

Cedric knitted his brows together slightly and allowed his eyes to pull back into the darkeness. His lips quirked into a tight smile, responding truthfully,

" You have a great sixth sense, Princess. They are wandering soul of this land but only few people can feel them like me and now..."

Cedric continued, pulling his eyes back at her intensely,

" It's you."

He was more surprised than her and continued staring in deep thoughts. Ayra asked back, taking another look of the darkeness,

" Like who? Why are they felt by only few people?"

Cedric took a while to respond since he was equally shocked like her. After hesitating for a few moments, his response came out, surprising Ayra more,

" Wandering souls are being only felt by those creatures who kill others for pleasure and had the bloodline of dark magics."

Ayra gasped at his remark, her eyes turning noticeably large. She knew that her hybrid powers had the urge of killing people but it was impossible that her bloodline had power dark powers. It wasn't making any sense after his words.

Cedric watched her face turning pale and he regretted the second for speaking truthfully. He clutched her hands tightly, trying to ease the tension that she was having inside,

" We are here to find our answers. Ignore them, Princess. They can't be seen by living like us."

Ayra nodded her head numbly and exhaled a heavy sigh through her mouth. Her eyes kept hanging down in daze as they begun walking into the darkeness again. Their whispers became more and more obvious as they walked forward to reach their destination.

Ayra ignored them like Cedric said and their walk indeed in a place where a little light was coming through the trees. She stepped forward to stand beside Cedric and saw an old man in mediation. He was looking very old with his long beards and wrinkles on his face. Their presence didn't break his meditation and Ayra noticed that Cedric didn't try to wake him up, just continued standing and waiting.

After having her second realization, Ayra gasped in shock and bewilderment. She noticed the mark on his neck, obvious to the fact that he was sucked by vampires or was the vampire himself as they all carried such mark on their neck. Her dialeted eyes looked up at Cedric, questioning in a stammering voice,

" How come a vampire lives in your world? Who is he?"
