Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

514 A Better Future

Hazel walked into the palace with the intention of finding Anne and spending some time with her.

She knew that it was either Nathan or Michael who was sitting in the dark and her senses had suggested to her the place too but since Rafael was sure that he would deal with it on his face, she would go and see the condition of the empire.

As long as everything ends peacefully, her child would come into a place that promises him a better future. A smile appeared on her lips as she thought about her child and wondered if it was a boy or a girl when she saw Damien.

He was coming from the underground prison again and she sighed.

“Damien!” she called him when the color of his face changed, “did you not go to the town where the man had asked you?” she asked in a soft tone as she walked closer to him when he nodded his head.

“I went to meet the witches and asked them to empty the land but they had no place to go. I will ask the council to rearrange the distribution of land. It is too complicated.” he told her in a blank voice that she could not guess what was going on in his mind.

She could use the spell to know the truth instantly but she was afraid it would prove his doubts that witches can use their powers against vampires anytime.

“Damien! I know that Diana is your sister and you are concerned about her. But you must understand that she had lost all her senses in the desire to get Rafael.

The girl who can kill her own mother, would she be kind to you?” her voice was soft, soothing as if she cared for him.

.....

For a second he felt dazed but he shook his head and his face turned cold. He was sure that she was using her bewitching powers on him.

“I am not a kid, Hazel. You should not waste your time in explaining the obvious to me. What did you find about the dark society?” he changed the topic when she sighed.

“I found their master but Rafael said that he was going to deal with them himself so I came back.

I am going to spend some time in the garden. Would you like to join?” he shook his head.

“Since you are in the palace, I am sure you are safe and do not need my company. Go ahead. I will go to the council for sometime.” All she could do was nod and leave to find Anne hoping that he would learn his lesson without a mistake.

When Hazel walked to the room of Anne, she was standing with Daclan and they both were having a serious discussion about something when she paused and decided to return but Anne called her.

“Hazel!” her voice was excited as she ran to her sister and hugged her, “congratulations. I heard that I am going to be an aunt!” her excited voice brought a smile on the face of Hazel too who nodded her head.

“Great! She is going to be my handsmaid when I marry.” she announced in a thrilled voice when Hazel chuckled but Declan frowned as he walked closer.

“It would take a minimum of three years then! I thought we were going to marry when the war ended.” He pulled Anne back from the arms of Hazel and explained, “you should not hug a pregnant woman with such force. It could hurt the child. Hug me instead.” Anne glared at the man and then elbowed him and rolled her eyes when Hazel laughed hard.

“It looks like I am disturbing the love birds. Carry on, I was just feeling bored.” Anne shook her head and then entangled their arms again but this time making sure that she did not press her belly.

“No! We were just finishing work. Lucio had never left her office until needed and though the elders of the coven are brash, rude and cold, and hungry for power, they are making sure that the transfer would be easy for the witches and helping them whenever needed.” she assured, “we have kept an eye for long on all of them. And I am sure that they all meant no harm except wanting more power for their pride.”

The words of Lucio when she had met him last time flashed in her ears but she still nodded her head.

“But that girl Venisa.. I had seen her lurking in the dark corners of the empire. I will not be surprised if she is asking witches to summon devils too. She is a dangerous and deranged vampire. It would be better that Rafael get rid of her.

I would have but I am still not allowed to kill on the land or Eve would return.” he shook his head when Anne looked at him with worry but he just kissed her hands assuring him that he had things under his control.

“I will talk to Rafael about it. Thank you for your hard work.” Declan shook his head with dissatisfaction on her plain thanks.

“It would be better that you give the hands of Anne to me as a thank you gift. I did not need your words.” he sighed when the girl pushed him away.

“Hey! Are you forgetting that you are a witch and this is a human body! You are hurting me.” he said in an exaggerated manner as he pulled her back in his arms, “come here and kiss me to get rid of this booboos!”

“......” Anne looked at the man with a look of speechlessness when Hazel pushed Anne and then left from there.

She was happy that both of them have gone beyond their conflicts and are happy together now.

But she was bored now. Since everyone is busy and only she did not have anything to do.

She walked towards the garden for a walk and sat on the bench near a wisteria tree as she touched the amulet in her neck

“If only I had a family too to spend time with them.”
