Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

“You do not need to fuss so much. A simple dress would do!” Hazel looked at the dresses with a look of disapproval in her eyes.

The dresses were heavier than one would wear in the ball party or her own marriage. Though she was the empress, she only dresses modestly when she goes out. Why were they showing her such a fancy dress today?

“My lady, sir Alfred had sent the dresses personally telling that my lord had chosen them.” he did!? She raised a brow at the strange reply as she could not believe it.

After ghosting her for a week, he was treating her so nicely to the level of choosing a dress for her? Did that cunning vampire take her as a fool?

Taking a breath, she scanned the dresses once again. All of them were so fancy and sensual. With a deep cut on the back to a low neckline, a long slit from the thighs to small slits on her waist.

She could already feel the headache from the night.

“I will wear the black one, thank you.” if she would keep her hair open then the backless dress would look the most modest one. Right?_.

The maids nodded their heads as they dressed her up like a doll, but all she felt like a sheep was going to get slaughtered.

“A knight is here to escort you, my lady!” a knight! She thought that they were only going to the garden. When did she need a knight to escort her?

“Ask him to wait, I will be there in a minute.” She stood and looked at herself in the mirror. To match the look of the dress they have prepared her a bit sultry.

Her eyes were smoky and her hair was done sexily. The amount of fragrance they have used on her.. She shook her head. What were they all thinking. It was just a simple dinner!

Though she thought so, her heart beat started to rise when she noticed the bouquet in the hands of the knights who were waiting for her.

Noticing her presence, he bowed her head. “The roses are sent by my lord for you, my lady.”

A smile unconsciously formed on her face looking at the roses in her hands. Their fragrance swayed her heart as it skipped a beat.

“My lord is waiting for you, my lady!” nodding her head, she passed the roses to the maid following her and turned to go towards the garden followed by the knight now.

Soft decoration of candles, instead of carpet a layer of roses were spread and the table in front of the lake under the wisteria tree! It did not look less than a fairy tale when she walked there.

“Thump” “thump” her heart beat accelerated by looking at the vampire who was wearing a white shirt with three buttons unbuttoned. His hair was falling over his eyes and his looks were deadly.

“You are finally here!” he whispered softly as he walked forwards and kissed her hand.

But when he raised his head, Hazel felt a tight constrict in her heart.

There were plenty of emotions in his eyes, but love was not one of them. In fact, she could not read what he was feeling with that contrasting look on his face, so she could only nod.

“Come, let’s take a seat.” with a nod she walked towards the seat but did not take her eyes away from his face.

“I have asked the chefs to prepare all the dishes you like. Hope you enjoy the meal.“ Just as the words left his mouth, the maids came forward and filled her plate with a bit of everything but instead of looking at the dishes, she was still looking at him.

“I must say a lot of effort has been put into this dinner. From the perfect wine to my favorite dishes.

Decorations to lighting and the roses! If I did not know you, I would have thought that you were going to confess to me!” with a chuckle, she whispered and then picked up the glass of wine and took a swig to hide her anxiety.

“Haha! Why? Can I not propose to you?” he asked with a raised brow. Though he was surprised too when he looked at the decorations Alfred had done since it was just opposite to what he was going to say to her.

he let it be, thinking she would be happy with the efforts and maybe it was the last time he was having dinner with her anyway, so it did not matter much.

But hearing her blunt reply, he chuckled and felt a pang of guilt.

“No! Looking at your eyes, I am sure it did not belong to a lover.” though she knew it would hurt her a bit but she had never thought it would be this bad.

She looked away towards the lake to hide her disappointment when he did not correct her. It only meant that she had guessed it right.

“You are very keen! I am impressed.” picking up his glass, he continued, “I will not lie to you anymore. You must have felt how my behavior towards you was confusing.

I am here to clear the matter and give you an offer!”

She turned her head only to notice that he was also looking at the lake, not her. But once again his eyes were full of melancholy as if he was longing for someone.

She knew the look very well as it had stayed often in her eyes too when she had longed for love from her family and now from.. Him?

“I was in love with a girl long ago but I lost her in an accident. She was a witch with immeasurable strength.

She was strong enough to beat me and kill me if she wanted but she loved me passionately instead even after my shortcomings.

When she was dying, she had told me that she would come back and before I would stop mourning for her, she would have taken another birth already!”
