481 [Bonus chapter]

“The room had nothing. They are more cunning than I thought.” Rafael stared at the witch who was glaring at her with the desire to kill even when she was bound in the ropes and was on their mercy.

“What are you looking at? Huh! Could you not see that half of your friends had died while the rest of them had run away, leaving you to die in our hands yet you are showing us attitude!” Diana walked closer and kicked the witch with force with a dark face when the witch winched and snarled at Diana who wanted to attack the witch again but Rafael stopped her.

“We need to interrogate her for the next lead. Let her live for now.” he warned when DIana nodded her head and took a step back.

“I will not tell you anything, vampire. You deserve to die for killing as many of us.” she snarled but Rafael did not pay any attention to her.

“Is there anything else, Rafael?” asked Diana while holding his shoulders and following his gaze when he shook his head.

“I thought this place would be full of proof. But it is too empty. As if someone had cleaned it before we could find anything. Like he knew that we were coming!” her gaze flickered with fear but she hid it under a charming smile.

“It might be the witches. Many of them run away. They must have taken things with them.” he paused for a second before nodding his head.

“Then we need to make sure that she spills all the truth. We do not have much time left.” Diana pressed the shoulders as she nodded her head to assure him. Her nails tracing his strong muscles with a dazed look.

“Then we need to leave.” he held witch in his arms and then ran with his full speed that he could not be seen with naked eyes.

.....

Diana followed him closely. As they reached back to the palace, he took her to the prison and threw it in the next cell to Hazel’s mother.

“Look, mother in law, i have brought you a company.” he said with a soft smile on his face as he looked at the woman who did not look more than twenty. “Since you are getting bored, I must take care of you.” Both of the cells were magic proof, especially made by hazel to make sure that they could not play any trick.

She kept staring at Rafael with a blank look as if she could not understand him at all. But under her dress, she was holding a sharp pin. She used the pin and pierce it on the skin of her palm when Rafael frowned.

He looked at his palm and saw a drop of blood in it.

“What did you do?” he asked the witch with a frown but she shook her head as she looked at his hands and then smirked.

“You were expecting to hold me without getting hurt in return! Ha! Since when have you been this gullible.” he gritted his teeth looking at her smirk and then threw her with force before closing the door and leaving from there.

Once he was gone, Diana stared at both of them but followed behind him.

The new witch stared at Hazel’s mother with interest. Who doesn’t know her!

“What did you do with that vampire?” she asked when but she did not respond as if she could not hear her.

“I am your ally. We have even stolen Beryllium to kill the vampire lord and the dark witch. Soon, we will kill all the vampires and use humans as our slaves. Then we will rule the whole empire. You can help us in achieving the goal faster.” she asked again but the witch did not reply as if she could not listen to her new cell mate.

“Ha! Suit yourself. If you did not want to join us, we did not care about an old witch who did not know anything.” she scoffed and walked towards the other end of the cell as she waited for Diana to come back and free her.

Hazel’s mother checked her fingers and her palms and then played with the small needle in her hands as a smile formed on her lips.

Rafael walked into his study instead of his room and sat on the chair. He took out the maps and marked the position where they had found the witch. It seems like a pattern. He was staring at her and then pointed a few more points when the door of his room opened.

He paused but did not turn back and started working on the maps again when Diana came closer and hugged him from behind.

“We have just come out after a hunt and you are still working. Why don’t you rest for a while?” she asked in a soft voice as she leaned to kiss her ears when she noticed the map in his hands and turned rigid and his eyes flickered dark.

“Aren’t you here too?” he asked with a chuckle as he closed the map and placed it back in the cupboard safely and locked it. Then he turned to look at her when she smiled again, “what are you doing here, Diana?”

“I came here because I saw the light open. I was worried for you.” she touched his cheeks softly, “i did not want you to fight with hazel because of me. Are you here because she did not let you enter the room or you did not go at all because you are still angry with her?”

Her tone was soft and caring as she kept touching him using her fingers.

“You have changed your perfume!” he asked, cutting her words as he leaned closer to her, touched when she grinned.

“Yes, I am experimenting. Do you like it?” her hands held his as she pulled him closer to her body, “you can look closely, i have changed many other things too.”
