Chapter 155 [Bonus chapter] It Was All A Plan

Hazel could feel the intensity of his dark and soulful gaze, but the way her heart palpated when she was with Rafael did not happen.

It would be a lie if she said that she was not afraid about her future but…

“No! I do not need time to think, my reply is no.” collecting all her strength, she took a step away.

For some reason she felt awful, as if she was betraying Rafael. Though she knew that they did not share an intimate relationship, she still felt that she was cheating on him.

“I do not know what Rafael had told you and I did not want to know about it.

I am his wife and you are my brother in law. So, do not cross the line or I would not be this lenient for the next time.” her stern eyes were so cold that Damien would feel the temperature dropping to freezing point.

Her eyes were so blank as if it were dead when she looked at him. It was completely opposite to her usual glaring and annoyed look that looked full of life.

He was stunned for a second as he had not expected this kind of look from her.

Taking benefit of his distraction, she turned and took hurried steps towards her room.

Though Hazel had left long ago, Damien was still staring at the space she was before as if, if he continued to look there, she would return back to him.

The sound of something falling from the tree and then leisure footsteps could be heard behind him but he did not turn to look at the person.

“Tsk! Did it feel bad to get rejected for the first time or are you stunned that it was a human who rejected you?

Poor Damien, you have lost your charm completely.” Damien turned and glared at the woman who was spouting nonsense.

His eyes narrowed at her face with an intent to kill.

“It was your foolish idea anyway! I have told you that it is still early. That little girl did not trust me yet.

Have you seen her behave like a scared rabbit when I cross her path?” Venisa rolled her eyes and scoffed.

She knew that Hazel was not scared of vampires. She was too bold when she faced them.

It was plain rejection that he could not bear that was why he was making excuses. Her eyes filled with disdain but trembled when she noticed the look on his face.

“This is not a time to fight. We have to find another way to convince her that she should choose you instead of Rafael!

We need a better plan.” she pointed but the man just sneered.

“That is why I have told you to wait. But you fucking did not listen.” running a hand in his hair, he flared at her while walking away as if she was not there anymore.

“Where are you going? We still need a plan to teach that wench a lesson.” she shouted, completely forgetting that they were still in the palace of Rafael where his ears were on everything and everywhere.

She had completely forgotten how Rafael had destroyed her father’s career and life. What she only remembered was hatred towards the girl who claimed Rafael, who should be hers or Diana’s!

Damien gritted his teeth in annoyance. He could not believe that the woman had lost all her senses.

Not only has she come to the palace to meet him and force him to fasten his plan but also shouting like a fool.

He could not believe that he had accepted her deal to woo Hazel that night.

Did she even know how much effort he had placed in getting her attention. From having a fight with Rafel to teaching her how to use daggers.

He placed every effort in winning her since it was the most difficult bet for his life.

He knew that she was wary of him, that was why he thought that it would be most fun to have her in his arms on his bed begging for more.

But who would have thought that the foolish girl would deny.

Not only would she deny, she would even dare to pass him that look full of disdain.

He could feel his chest tightening and a feeling of suffocation engulfed him.

“Are you trying to ignore me because you are rejected or you are so hurt that you are going to cry and drink alone?” Surprisingly the girl did not know when to stop as she covered their distance and mocked him again.

The expression on her face was full of sarcasm as if she was looking down at him.

“That is enough!” He held her by her neck and raised her high in the sky.

He had never been a patient vampire yet the vampiress tested him again and again.

“If you want to die, you just have to say so! Why are you making so many excuses!” The low growl mixed with his narrowing eyes trembled her that she was not able to utter a word.

She could feel the suffocation in her body but it was not much like a human.

More than that she was afraid what was going to befall on her when he would let go.

She had forgotten that the man was no less than a snake who would not let you realize that his body had already clenched you hard until you would not be able to breathe more.

Her body was trembling in fear but she could not let go of her desire so easily. She had worked so hard for it.

“Do not be hasty, we are on the same side then why are we fighting.

Did you forget how you wanted to win her over since she is the most difficult target and I wanted to see Rafael’s face when Hazel would choose you over him.

So what if we were lost once, we can try again.”
