Chapter 356 She Did Not Trust Any

“I have neve thought that you would actually burn the whole area. Did you find the witches imprisoned there?” asked Luhan in a calm voice, he did not try to hide the fact that there were witches too in front of Rafael whose cold eyes were staring at them with a predatory look all this time.

“Why don’t you give them to us and we will leave silent from here.” he said seeing the skeptical look on the face of hazel, he added, “we do not trust humans or vampires when it comes to taking care of witches.”

“Then what made you think that I will trust you?” Hazel asked back with a cold look on her face, when she saw him frowning, “you have done nothing so war to earn my trust.”

Then she turned back to look at Lilian who flinched and then lowered her head.

“Then the matter will be exaggerated.” said the man with a smile but it did not look like he was worried about it. “I have supported you since the start. You should show me at least some gratitude.”

“I would have if you would have been as selfless as you sound!” she responded as she leaned her head on Rafael who held her with a domineering look on his face.

With his strong presence the whole carriage felt cramped and suffocating.

Though he did not say a word, his presence alone was enough to keep all the witches in check.

They did not dare to speak freely or force Hazel into doing something.

“I meant no harm, but the way you manipulated Celina into asking me to attack on the black market and your friend dragged me in my own place, i can not trust you so easily and i am not letting anyone go until i know the truth behind the whole accident.” said Hazel with a smile to the man who sewed at her vicious words.

“I mean no harm. I was only trying to save the imprisoned witches. A few of them are part of our coven and we have come this far only to save them and end that damned place so that no one would be able to take one of us again.” he said in a cfondent voice as if he was not worried about what she thought but only about the people he had come to save so far.

“That is a nice story, you have it!” she complimented the man who looked colder with her words. “But if that is the case then you can always come to the palace and talk to them. If they want to go, I will gladly allow them to follow you.”

It was clear that she was not going to give up on the witches, making the situation a stalemate.

Hazel did not know why but she felt that the man was not as simple as he seemed and the girl sitting there smiling on her own while holding the hands of man as if she was trying to mark her territory did not give her a good impression.

Luhan’s eyes narrowed on his actions but he did not say a word when he felt the cold eyes of Rafael on him.

“Alright, then I will meet them in a palace and take them with us when you are satisfied with our reason and their behavior. I will only hope that you will take care of them till then.” He was about to stand up and leave as he knew that Hazel was not in the mood to listen and with Rafael standing beside her, he would not be able to do anything about it.

“As long as you do not get blinded by the species and start taking humans and vampires as your enemy.

The one who caught the members of your coven was not one else but yourself by killing the witches.”

The man frowned, he did not like even a bit the way Hazel was blaming them for the things humans and vampires have done.

“Do you know how it feels to be a witch? Go and tell a vampire and they will kill you just for fun while humans would try to cage you and sell you for a lot of prize.” he scorned her as he added, :”it is different for you since you are loved by the lord. Not every witch has the same luck and chances to live.”

“Then try to change it. You still have a long time in front of you. If you don’t have anything else, I will like to go and rest in my palace.” she dismissed them when Lilian who was silent all this time scorned as she stared at Hazel who was trying to behave all mighty!

Hazel made herself comfortable, staring at the young witch she had not noticed before.

“If you are only doing this because of my mistake that day, then I can apologize to you for my misunderstandings.”

“If you think you hold so much importance then you are wrong. But if you are apologizing, you should name your mistakes as a misunderstanding in the first place?” asked hazel back with a look of amusement in her eyes.

The girl was trying to behave arrogantly till last yet she dared to stand in front of her and say that she was sorry!

“If you both are done, then you leave. My wife has burnt the whole black alley, she needs rest and I need her.” Rafael opened the door of the carriage and stared at them as if asking, “get the fu** out of here if you are done!”

Luhan stared at Hazel one more time but she just closed her eyes and leaned in the arms of Rafael who was holding her protecting and staring at both of them with piercing eyes.

“I will still hope that you will take the side of the witches when the time comes. ” he muttered as he walked away from there.

“So you do know that they are witches from the start?” asked Rafael as the carriage finally started. Hazel could feel from his voice that he was pissed that she was hiding things from her but she nodded her head without a care.

“Yes and that girl fed me drugs. I do not trust them so keep an eye on them for me.”
