Loved By a Vampire King

Chapter 61 - Contact With Our Old Friend!

That night was the most blessed night to Queen Melinda. Her happiness had no boundaries as she quickly ordered to inform the higher ups about Ethan's decision as he left the castle.

But this news travelled to Ester's ears very fast as a commotion started arising inside a bedroom. Ester was roaring like a maniac as he roared pointing at his bodyguard who had been helping him so far in each kinds of crimes,

" What did you say? What did you say? How come that brat is willing to fight for the throne now?"

He raked his hairs hastily before continuing gritting his teeth together,

" 7 years, for 7 years I have planned everything to make her children go away one by one. Now, my whole plan will be ruined just by a single person? "

He turned around and faced the cold faced bodyguard Jeremy ordering,

" Do something, Jeremy. Do something.. I don't care if we have to kill Ester or not but that throne should be mine, only. "

Jeremy finally showed an expression of nonchalant as he replied looking at his raged face,

" But master, Prince Ethan is determined this time. I can't bear to kill a prince unless I have a death wish. "

Ester's eyes turned vicious as he stormed towards him before gripping his tongue spitting out viciously,

" Whom do you work for huh? You bastard? I'm the elder son of king Alonzo. Do you think that anyone is more compatible than me? "

Jeremy badly wanted to spit out that eldest illegitimate son but judging by his rage, he stayed quite enduring the severe pain in his tongue and showed an expression of compromised.

At the end, his body was shoved away harshly by Ester and heard his ruthless command,

" Contact with our old friend. I need to finish Ethan at any cost."

He added smirking evilly,

" I have done a lot for her. It's time to payback her gratitude."

Jeremy nodded before lifting himself from the ground and heading outside with his gloomy face.

VAMPIRE WORLD,

MOONSHINE CASTLE,

Finally Viviana and Esme managed to return in the castle that night without anyone's knowing. Before coming out from there, Viviana threatened the guards to keep their mouths sealed in front of Queen Mother unless they want to die terribly.

As Esme entered her bedroom, the clock showed 3a.m at midnight. After taking off her dirty clothes, she slowly walked towards the man who was in a sound sleep on the bed. Her eyes saw the calmness of his handsome face as she exhaled a long sigh recalling the triggered words by Athena.

Is she really doing something wrong leaving him here?

As the question pricked in her heart, she momentarily forced herself to calm down before laying down beside her. Subconsciously she threw herself into his embrace to enhale his relaxing fragrance and went into deep sleep.

Next day,

The first ray of sunlight was coming through the leaves of a tree beside the window reflecting on the two intertwined figures lying down on the bed peacefully. As the sunlight hit his closed eyes, Aaron's pupil shrank as he opened his eyes slightly.

After struggling with his heavy eyelids for a few seconds, his gaze fell on the sleeping beauty in his embrace. Involuntary his lips formed into a sweet smile when he saw how she wrapped his waist like chains. Her beautiful face was glowing like the ray of sunlight as her head was pressed into his chest firmly. She seemed so peaceful and loving that he would mistake himself thinking that this girl was in love with him.

As she showed no sign of awakening, he stopped his movements and kept staring at her sleeping place blankly. His fingers subconsciously went to push off her curls from her forehead and gently caressed the fair skin.

He had been feeling like Esme had changed a lot in this days. Nowadays she didn't protest him too much nor did she tried to create fuss like their earlier days after marriage. Moreover she seemed so stressed when his sickness had acted up suddenly yesterday.

After being touched in her sleep, her petal lips trembled a bit before turning usual. But the little movements had triggered someone's desire unknowingly. His eyes sank as he frowned deeply gazing at her sinful lips before cursing inwardly.

The next moment, his head leaned in to taste the sweetness of her lips a little bit. Unexpected his lips touched her one, the girl mumbled complaining,

" Ayra...!! No.."

Aaron instantly became alerted as he lifted up his head before frowning hard at her face.His brows were tightly knitted as he tried to understand her words.

Whom is she calling out early in this morning?

Jealousy and suspense coursed through his mind as he bent down again to ensure her words before capturing her dry lips once again. As soon as their lips collided, Esme whimpered badly and cursed through their kiss still in her daze state,

" Ayra... No.. I haven't.. brushed yet.."

In response, she heard a cold mechanic tone which sent shiver through her spine instantly,

" Doesn't matter to me.."

Esme jolted before shutting open her eyes and looked at the cold face astounded. Aaron frowned at her puzzled face before asking sternly,

" Who is Ayra? It seems like a girl's name. Did you use to stay with anyone?"

Esme's face fell as she forced to stay calm before replying abruptly,

" No.. no.. what.. what are you taking about? I.. I actually had a puppy in human world. I.. I used to call her Ayra.. She used to lick my face early in the morning... "

Though Aaron felt unconvinced at her words and expression still he suggested for the sake of her happiness,

" Do you want to take it back, here? I can order anyone to take the puppy in the castle. "

Esme shook her head quickly denying and made an excuse, 

 " No need, no need. I know mom and dad will take care of her well when I'm not around. After all, that was my favourite pet that I had left for them. "

Aaron asked with a hint of sympathy flashing through his gaze, 

" Do you miss them?" 

Esme smiled faintly before looking up and replied, 

" So what if I miss? Do I have the choice to visit them if I say yes? "

Aaron smirked before spitting out, 

" Depends on your activities!" 

Esme had started feeling pressured, 

" What.. what.. activities?" 

With a swift, Aaron tightly held her nearer his body before gazing down and stated with disappointment, 

" You call out baby, Ayra in your sleep so lovingly. Then what do you call me? Shouldn't I get better treatment than them? "

Esme tried to break free without hearing further and denying, 

" Liar, you always want to take advantage of me. I'm not going to agree with you this time, no matter what."

Aaron laughed at her blushed face and pressed her down swiftly whispering in her ear, 

" Then how about you treat it with some morning sweetness? " 

Before she could protest, her words were forced to stuck inside her stomach as his fiery lips landed on her. Her whole body went into a daze state as she saw him blankly kissing her lips madly. His lips fell on her cheeks, collarbone, the swell between her breasts as it slowly travelled down over the thin layer of her night down. 

Esme whimpered loudly sensing the lips over her navel as her stomach tightened into a knot in pleasure. Aaron lifted up his face from her waist side before capturing her lips once again before pushing hand into her private area evading under the clothes. 

Esme gasped sensing his sensual touches and tried to protest some muffle moans, 

" No.. S.. stop.." 

Aaron paused quickly before looking down at her flashed face disappointing.Esme spoke avoiding his hungry glare, 

" Don.. don't you have to attend the hallroom today? It's so early in the morning. We should get up now." 

Aaron sighed helplessly and respected her wish thus he pulled out the hand reluctantly and got off from her not before kissing her lips one more time. 

On the contrary, Queen Mother was having her morning tea as usual sitting on the terrace with a downcast look. She was very upset over Athena for not behaving according to her way. One side, Aaron was slowly falling over Esme whereas Athena was becoming more reckless which was giving her tough time. 

Her elegant sipping could be declared as a flawless act as if she had practiced to drink this way so far. Just then Zave walked in gracefully following up with a faint smile tugging in his lips before speaking, 

" Morning, Queen Mother. Sorry for interrupting at this hour. But..... I have a good news for you." 

Queen Mother paused her sipping before throwing him a confused glance. Zave continued smiling coldly, 

" The hig Empiric has been found, Queen Mother. Now he is in our palms and can work under us. You just have to tell the name of the antidote. "

Queen Mother's face immediately beamed in joy as she replied back anxiously, 

" What.. what did you say, Zave? There cannot be anything better news than that. How should I reward you? Tell me, Zave. "

Zave shook his head out of respect and pretended to be shy speaking, 

" No, this loyal servant wants nothing but your kind gesture, Queen Mother. "

Queen Mother was far more satisfied at his loyalty thus she spoke again with deeper meaning, 

" How about I reward you with my daughter, Zave?"
