Loved By a Vampire King-Chapter 492 - Be My Witness --- Part 1

Sienna numbly walked over to her position that she had been offered by Mr.Levon. The jury had their eyes on them as they waited for her answer. Mr.Levon gave her an encouraging smile as to continue with their plan. Undoubtedly he wanted her to spill it in front of everyone that Ayra indeed harmed their magical beast and caused havoc in Mystic Grove.

Sienna wasn't fully confident enough since she had been put in sole attention and Cedric's eyes were on her piercing. Everything was tumbling inside her thoughts even though she had practiced and prepared everything long back. Mr.Lincon pressurized her with his strong, powerful voice,

" Princess Sienna! We are all here to secure your safety. You don't have to afraid of anyone."

Mr.Lincon didn't had any other intention except figuring out the truth and brought justice for those beast who lived in Mystic Grove. Sienna moved uncomfortably in her seat.

Playing with the corner of her gown, she was battling to utter the final words. Her eyes snapped up to fell on Angelica who was standing few steps away from her and was silently inspiring her to spill the truth. After receiving her mother's silent approval, Sienna inhaled deep breath heavily and parted her lips to speak.

Cedric's voice interrupted her words as he kept twitching his lips in sarcasm,

" Looks like your witness has to prepare her answer before telling the truth."

Ayra's tension raised more after she noticed how Sienna was pushing her lips apart. She was determined to reveal truth and Ayra knew very well that this mother-daughter had been finding ways to defame her from the first day. She wasn't afraid of her punishment if the truth was exposed but now, her reputation was related to an entire kingdom and she definitely didn't want other people to look down on Basarisk's Queen. They were free to look down at Ayra Chole but not to the queen of Basarisk.

Cedric's eyes captured the way her eyelids kept shaking like a pair of fallen leaves. Even without sharing words, he could tell that she was scared and more specifically guilty for making this mess. The black lines on her forehead turned darker in each second.

Cedric tilted his head down to whisper into her ears,

" Looks like you are being extremely afraid, Princess. Don't you trust my way?"

Ayra snapped her head aside to stare at her man. No matter how rocky their relationship developed from the beginning until, she knew that he was the only support that she had here. Willing or unwillingly, her mind bloomed in security whenever he was around her and provided her a great sense of comfort and assurance.

She sighed exhaustingly. Tilting her head aside to meet his mystic eyes, she murmured back weakly,

" I just.. don't you to take responsibilities.. for my mistake..I..I am worried about your reputation to put on stake.."

She ended up licking her own lips nervously when she felt him staring back at her intensely. As if she could tell that he would have kissed her right away if they weren't surrounded by too many people. Google search 𝗳𝙧𝘦𝒆𝑤𝙚𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃ℯ𝑙. 𝐜𝐨𝑚

Her response brought a sweet smile on his face. Pushing his dirty thoughts right behind his mind, he muttered back quickly,

" Love comes with responsibility, Princess and I promised to become the best husband for you."

His eyes snapped back to fall on Sienna who was struggling to find her words properly. After a long lingering silence, Sienna managed to push her eyes up to glance around the Jury members who were waiting for her answer patiently.

Cedric placed his hand on the table, stared at her with intensity and his fingers were ticking on the wooden board. He had a smug smile playing on his face as he waited with others to hear her response. Before she had the chance of opening her mouth, Sienna's eyes travelled back far away from the members and fell on the dragon head statue that her father stole from the neighborhood city.

Fire began to radiate from the statue as if it was real not any customized stuff. All of sudden, she couldn't focus on others but at the fire which suddenly began to radiate through the statue and got her sole intention.

Sienna swallowed hard as she zoomed her eyes into the fire and began to knit her brows tightly. She could see something happening inside the fire like a vision.

Then her eyes zoomed inside the fireplace and witnessed something that she never felt in her entire life. Her breathing staggered and all her blood turned cold within a span of moments.

In her panic and exasperation, she jumped off from her seat, trembling and shaking in unknown fear. Mr.Levon narrowed his eyes at her, displeased at the way she kept delaying on her response. He warned emphasizing on his words,

" Princess Sienna! Please speak out truthfully. You can't expect the Jury to wait for your answer for eternity."

Angelica also glared at her angrily. She couldn't understand why her momentum changed too fast or why she was acting so cowardly. If they failed to speak the truth here, there wouldn't have any chances of demolishing Ayra anymore.

Ayra looked up at Cedric strangely and saw nothing unnatural but she had an instinct feeling of something going wrong.

Did he really do something?

Mr.Lincon also got annoyed this time and shouted at Sienna who kept shaking tremendously, her lips parting with no words coming out.

She was looking like utterly shocked!

Angelica's angry voice snapped her sense back to reality,

" Sienna!"

Sienna snapped out of her bizarre state. Swallowing down a mouthful saliva, she replied through her heavy breaths and shaking tone,

" I.. Mother..I..I didn't see Lady Ayra attacking the beast..I..I didn't see anything..I really didn't.."

Ayra was the first one to gasp in disbelief.. Her eyes invoulantarily pulled on Cedric whose expression was natural but there was a hint of joy scorching through his eyes as if he was already expecting this answer.
