The Princess's Dangerous Vampire Mate-Chapter 377: The aftermath - II

I heard the words, whispers of them as I was in and out of consciousness, the entire time.

I felt hot, more than I ever had. It was like I was in the summer of Lethoris, the country with the hottest summer anyone could ever imagine and I was standing directly under it with no shade to protect me from it.

My hands cloud on my skin, ready to remove the piece of clothes that I was wearing. It was already sticking to my skin and I could feel it. It was not much, but a thin layer of clothes, but even that proved to be a restraint, I was not ready for.

"I think.... should ... we?"

What? What was being said?

Who was talking? Was someone around me?

I opened my eyes with great effort and found people hovering over me. They were more than one because of the member of cases that I heard constantly around me. How many, I did not know. But people were around me for sure.

"I.. hot.."

"..know.."

"Yes!"

"mu...st.... do.."

What were they saying? What... I tried to breathe in, as much as I could, but my brothers were coming of short. Opening my mouth for a greedy mouth full of air, I did it again, but the shortness remained, 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

What was happening?

"Love does not exist!" Estelle declared, her break, the eyes glaring at me.

My lips turned into a pout as the tears threatened to spill from my eyes, making my governess panic. "Yes, it does..." I turned to nesta, my governess, "right?"

Nesta noted with a polite and slightly planning to look my way.

Estelle turned to her with angry eyes. "Do not lie to my sister!"

"I am.. I am not, Princess. Love does exist in this world."

"Ut does not." My sister stomped her foot on the ground. "I know it."

I frowned. "How do you know it? It exists for Mumma and Papa."

Estelle grew more angry. "It does not—"

"Why," everyone hushed, "do I hear my princess is yelling at each other?"

Through my blurry eyes, iTunes to see my father, standing in the door away with his hands behind his back. Picking up my skirts, I ran towards him, and was immediately picked up before being tucked to his chest.

"Estelle is saying that love does not exist. Love is there, papa. You love mummy and mummy loves you. I love you."

He smiled gently. " that’s true, my princess and I love you too."

"See?" I turned to my sister. "Love is there!"

Estelle was still angry, and I did not understand why. Father had solved all of our problems. Papa told me that he left me and that he loved mummy. I am that simply, love existed. Then that was my sister so angry about? She had even shouted on Nesta.

"No."

Papa sighed and I leaned into him more. "She is angry, papa." I whispered into his year. "I don’t know why."

"I see." He whispered back, "on the same topic?"

I nodded my head.

He moved closer to my sister and kneeled in front of her yet kept his arm around me. "Why is my beautiful princess from angry?"

"I am." She crossed her arms in front of her and glared at Papa. "I am."

"Why, dearest?" Papa took her hand in his. " how about, we go on a picnic today? You and I?"

Estelle moved, but only slightly. "You, I and Mumma."

Now, I frowned. "What shall I not be invited?"

Estelle glared at me. " because I said so."

I was about to open my mouth, the screen back at her but Papa spoke in between, " no, not because anyone said so, but because Genevive has been invited to minister Graham’s daughter’s birthday party. Did you forget?"

I had. "It is today?"

He nodded and smiled. "yes. Your mother has decided your dress and your governors will go with you. Also, when they tell you that it is time to come back, you will listen to them. Do you understand me, evie?"

I nodded again and glanced at my sister before looking back at my father. "I guess you can go."

"nobody asked you." Estelle snarled.

"Estelle," mumma soft, yet firm voice had all turned towards her, all except my father. "Is that the way you talk to anyone, specially your family?"

No, it was going to be nice. It was only my mother that could keep a leash on my sister. Father loved us too much as everyone would say but my Mumma, she was the Queen.

Estelle was next.

"No," Estelle sets of where she looked down on her hands. "Everyone is annoying me."

Frowning, I called her out. "Liar."

She looked at me, her eyes angry again, but when Mumma was in the room. Estelle held her tongue.

"Excuse as everyone. Thank you." Mumma came closer to all of us with her hand on her big belly. There was a baby inside it and my father said that was going to be a boy.

"Estelle, if you want to go with us to a picnic, then I shall allow it, but if I hear of any miss behaviour, you can forget about it."

Estelle nodded. Papa smiled. Mumma was content.

"Baby," Mumma turned to me, "I do not want any complaints from Nishtha about your behaviour tonight."

"You will not." I promised him before looking at her belly. I got the distance in between us and placed a kiss on my baby brother. "I love you both."

Mummy smiled, and she was about to say something when Papa pulled me back to his chest. Estelle was next to me and he was peppering kisses on our faces.

"I love you both." He said as our giggles filled the room with my Mumma’s soft laughter.

A good memory, I came back to consciousness again and opened my eyes only to see nothing, but darkness around me. A good memory and I wanted more. Slipping into the unconsciousness again, I wondered what I may see next.
