!More than that they both love each other a lot so she would never look at you as a woman looks at a man!” The words were cold and harsh that stung his heart.
If it would have been anyone else, he would have beaten them. But she was too strong for him.
He turned back to look at her when he felt her eyes were fierce.
“You would make a mistake if you came between them.” she threatened but he only raised a brow.
“You are talking like you are their guardian angel!” he mocked but the girl nodded her head in a heartbeat. Her face had a strange eeriness that made his heartbeat stronger and fear crawled in.
Guardian angels! There were a few witches who had sworn their loyalty to humans and signed a blood pact to protect them all their life until they died a natural death. But it ended up when witches felt that they were used.
It was not possible that the witch had a blood pact with a young girl like Hazel. So, could it be that she was the guardian angel of Rafael? But he did not remember any case when a witch had swore her loyalty to a vampire, lord of the vampire, the slaughter god of witches at that!
“Did you save the witch?” she asked, ignoring the fear and queries in his eyes when his eyes widened.
“How do you know..”
“You do not need to know about that. Your goal is the same as mine. To protect the lady! The moment your goal changed, we would stand against each other. And trust me you would not like that!
Now I will ask again, have you saved the witch?” he instinctively nodded his head. There was something darker in her eyes that realized her realize she was not to be trifled with.
She had immense powers. More than he could fathom and if she was protecting the vampire, it would be hard to take him down.
“Yes, I did. She is with my family right now.”
“Hmm, the place where you have kept the kids. That is good. She is a meek witch who thought about others and got manipulated. Take her back to your coven. She would not betray you and when the time would come.. She would be proven as a key to saving others.
She was worth the investment!” he frowned when he saw her rubbing her chin and talking gibberish. She was talking like she knew what the future would behold and she knew everyone.
How did she even know that he had a coven when he told her that he lived with his family and about the witch he had saved. She had not even met her..
“You..”
“You do not need to worry about it. I know that you did not tell the truth to Rafael but it is okay. I know that he is too arrogant. All you need to do is hide the box safe and send that young girl to your coven.
If you need my help, I will be waiting for you in my hideout in the annex building.” her face was telling that she was sure he would need her help. But what for?
Her every word was so confusing and so were her expressions. Before he could understand what she wanted to tell.. She disappeared from there.
Shaking his head, he left from there. He knew that even if he wanted to find her in the annex building, she would not tell him the truth. And he knew that she was not a threat. Not until, he irked her by his actions.
The night had already passed and it was already morning when he reached back to his room.
The slaves were asked to wake up early and start working since they were not hired staff but brought one who should not be given any leisure time.
All the other slaves had already taken a bath and were ready to start the day. He joined the line before anyone could realize he was missing all this time and started moving with them.
Most of them were silent with the soulless eyes that had no warmth left. He noticed the man walking behind her with strange marks on his hand and the girl behind her had a lot of scars.
“Both of you, his highness, Prince Vincent, are asking for your presence.” They both trembled a bit but started moving in the direction of the knight and soon they disappeared into the dark.
Could it be that he was a sadist and want to start the day by punishing the slaves? He shook his head as he moved. He wanted to cross the line faster and meet Hazel.
He was sure she would be waiting for him. Even if it was to see those kids, he was going to spend all his day with her again.
“Hey, you! You are the new slave right?” he frowned when he was held at the door by two knights who were looking at him with an evil look on their face.
“I am not slave of this family. I personally belong to lady Hazel.” he told them in a bold tone but only got a sneer and a scoff in return.
“Do you think she had any identity of hers. She was a slave that belong to this family and very soon she would be back to her real place. So, it would be better that you do not behave this arrogant. You are going to land in our hands sooner or later.” The smirk on their faces told them that they already had a plan.
If Rafael died, would they take over his place? Do they think that other vampires would lose if Rafael died? Wouldn’t they be taking revenge and killing these humans?
“Even if the lord died, the lady would be taken back by their empire and other vampires would come to take revenge!”
“Ha! They would die before your master.”
