Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord-Chapter 506 - Evil Energy
506 Evil Energy
“Aah you are finally here. I was only waiting for you.” Hazel smiled towards Damien who entered the room as she closed the book she was reading and paid all her attention to him.
But his eyes were colder. He did not pay any attention to him as he walked in and sat on the sofa.
“Rafael told me to protect you. I am going to spend my day here until he is back.” he muttered when Hazel nodded her head with full brightness. Only then did he realize that it was her idea.
She had asked Rafael to appoint him as her personal dog! Did she want to taunt him to show off her powers? No matter what the reason was, he felt annoyed with the thought of it.
“Since you are here, I want to go out.” like a pampered child, she stood up and complained when he frowned and gritted his teeth. “Rafael did not let me go out because he thinks it is not safe for me but now that you are here, I am sure he will not stop me from going out.”
The maid brought heels for her as she readied to go out and smiled at him. He was about to open his mouth to berate her and tell her that he was not her servant but when he remembered how she had gone to meet a witch personally, his eyes flickered and he nodded.
If he could collect the proof against her then he would show that she was not a kind and selfless witch as others think her to be! She is manipulative and wicked.
Hazel smiled brightly as they walked out of her room but before he could take the stairs to go to the carriage, she held his hands and he paused.
Three deep lines formed on his forehead as he looked at their intertwined hands,
.....
“We are not going out with a carriage, it will take a lot of time and I will feel tired.” she replied when he frowned. He was about to say that walking would be more trifling and she was not a vampire that she would be able to run like them but before he could do so, he saw her eyes stirring and her lips moving as she held his hands tightly.
And before he could refuse or shout, he felt himself being pulled in a vortex and gasped. He felt like a dark hole had sucked him in and he had no way to go out of it. But before he could feel short of breath, the vortex spit him out as if it could not digest it.
He coughed but when he looked around, he was not in the palace anymore but in the market.
“Why are we here?” He had seen the market a few times but he had never come here since it was on the border of both empires.
There were hardly any vampires who took part in it but it was mostly run by humans with a few witches who ran black markets selling all kinds of things that were forbidden in the empire.
“To buy things!” she rolled her eyes as if he was being a fool, “i want to look for some toys my child will like to play with.” she smiled as she touched her belly that was still not grown enough but still the touch and thought of it gave her strange sensations in the pit of her stomach.
“The vampires grow rather fast!” he pointed. He did not remember playing with toys as he grew up. He learnt survival techniques and hunting instead.
“It might be a witch too. But no matter what he or she is.. I want my child to play with toys and as his uncle, you should help me a bit.” without waiting for him to argue further, she dragged him into a nearby stall where clothes of babies were being sold.
She touched the soft fabric and smiled as picked up a pink frock. It had lace on its hem with cute flowers all over.
“How is it?” she asked when he looked away.
“How do you know that it is a girl?” he asked ready to leave, “it is still too early to buy the clothes for the child.” He could not believe after snatching all the happiness of his family, she wanted him to buy clothes for her child.
“It is never late. And we can have both kinds of clothes.” she deadpanned as she forced him to stop and picked a few dresses for both boys and girls.
No matter how he reacted, she did not let him go or dampen her mood until she had packed a lot of clothes.
Then she passed the bags to him.
“Here, hold them for me.” she dusted her hands and started walking again when he gritted his teeth. They did not come through the carriage, so they did not have knights or servants with them.
That meant he had to hold everything she would buy personally. She was doing it intentionally to humiliate him and remind him of his poison from now on, he concluded as he noticed the smirk on her face.
“There… I have heard that they sell charms and amulets.” she pointed at another shop as she ran towards it when Damien followed her. It was already the fourth shop and she was showing no sign of ending her shopping spree.
They already have a lot of clothes, baby shoes and even toys he knew would not be needed.
She stood in front of the display of a shop and stared at red and blue stones with concentration.
“You have chosen the right shop, my lady. We have excellent quality protection spells and stones that were made by the best witches in the town. It will give you good luck and protect you from all the evil spirits around you.” he boosted as he took out one when she smiled.
“My lord, would you like to have one too. You have a lot of evil energy around you?”
