Loved By a Vampire King

Chapter 149 - Worse Than Death!

MOONSHINE CASTLE,

The air inside the magnificent castle was terrifying as if the demon had personally arrived to take back their souls into the hell. The cries of guards were ringing in this stuffy air piercing through the hearts of innocent people who were forced to witness this scary scene. 

All of the guards were crunched down over the floor miserably. Their hands were tied behind into a knot as their faces were sweating profusely even in this cold weather. Another row of guards were standing behind each one of them holding a larg sword in the air and was ready for final approval.

The maids who had been dragged into the court at midnight all had a deathly face as if they were going to collapse anytime. Their fear grew thousand times stronger when they saw the most loyal gaurd Jasper on the beheading guards row.

Jasper didn't show any ounch of protest as he was aware of his mistake. He was in charge of protecting Esme but he failed miserably. His Lord had all the reasons to punish him however he wants. He sighed softly and waited for the sword to cut off his head anytime.

At that moment, the man sitting over the throne had a stormy expression. His one hand was resting over the hand edge as his entire aura emitted a killing intent. His icy gaze were too perturbed as if he was battling with rage and pain at the same time. He tried his best to keep her stay but yet he failed. Even he purposely had regular intercourse with her so that he could impregnant her soon. He naively thought that perhaps her escaping decision would change considering their child but he failed to stop her. After placing nemurous guards around the castle, he failed to keep her caged here.

What is the point of keeping them alive if they couldn't even protect his woman?

Still he contemplated in his mind and thought that if Esme didn't appear within half an hour, he would give the final order to cut off their heads right at this moment.

MEANWHILE,

Esme and Carol had landed down in front of the entrance of moonshine castle. Watching the dump emptiness around the castle, Esme and Carol both were stunned before exchanging curious glance.

As the guards were all dragged out into the court in order to receive their punishment, the castle zone had turned empty. Filled with dense silence, Esme could feel the atmosphere audibly odd and dangerous. Approaching near the entrance, she wanted to look for Aaron first but a maid from the castle quickly rushed over to her hurriedly almost falling down.

Carol was startled at her sudden approach and shielded Esme protectively as she was feeling little sick before they returned. 

The maid quickly knelt down over the floor and was overwhelmed in relief and happiness. Choking on her words desperatly, she spoke in a breath,

" My..My lady.. Where.. where did you go? You don't know how Lord has turned the entire castle upside down. He is furious and beheading each one of the guards. Please save their lives.Even Guard Jasper has been included in the list too. Please save their lives..Wuhu.."

The maid burst into mournful sobbing startling Esme and Carol both. They didn't imagine that things would turn so bizarre within few times.

Without wasting a single moment, Esme rushed into the courtroom briskly and was stunned at the entrance observing the row of guards. As the count down had stopped, Aaron was about to gesture his hand signaling them to cut off their useless heads but a screaming tongue stopped everyone's movements.

Esme shouted holding the doorway,

" Stop!!!!!!! No!!!!!"

Jasper was the first to look up at the way and immediately had a smile of relief as he didn't want to see so many innocent lives loosing their heads. Swallowing hard, he averted his gaze towards Aaron who was stunned and motionless over his throne. 

Just like a first ray of sunshine, his expression changed into a pleasant one but the depth of his gaze didn't fade way as it was boring anger and joy both. 

The guards who were appointed to cut off their heads were paused midway as they all glanced towards Esme whose expression was surfaced with extreme guilt. Obviously, she was the reason behind their misfortune.

Stumbling on her paces, she managed to come at the middle and ordered without looking at the over throne,

" What are you doing? Release all of them. It's not their fault that I had left the castle. "

The appointed guards were hesitating to retreat and glanced over at Aaron who remained unfazed. Aaron took a while to reconsider but later waved his hand dismissively before gesturing them to leave right away.

The guards understood his signal and released each one of them quickly. Esme exhaled a long sigh of relief and watched the guards gratitude filled eyes on her. She smiled faintly as the guards quickly left the courtroom like a frightened pussy cat. 

In the entire courtroom, only Aaron and Esme were left after their departure as Carol also retreated from there considerably. Turning around, she finally faced the demon faced man who was still seated over the throne.

Meeting her hazel eyes, his heart filled with joy and rage as he hauled up from his respective spot lazily. Taking slow steps towards her, he crossed the stairs one by one domineeringly as if he was approaching towards his prisoner.

On the contrary, Esme felt pressured as his silence was killing her eternally. Even though she knew that he wouldn't hurt her but who could predict his unscrupulous temper?

Aaron walked lazily before standing in front of her shortened figure. The lavishing chandelier hanging above thier heads were illuminating a yellow dim light bathing over her frozen body. The guilt was vivid on her expression that made Aaron's heart more in discomfort.

A moment of weeping silence passed away without exchanging a single word as Esme kept hanging her head unsure about how to start up the conversation. 

Aaron inspected her expression and suddenly had an urge to slap her but held back hardly. Stretching out his slender fingers, he pinched on her chin hardly and asked briefly in his husky voice,

" Explain!!! "

Esme was a little taken back at the pain on her chin and swallowed hard in fear. Keeping their eyes locked, she managed say between her raspy breathing,

" I ..I went to visit outside with ..Carol.. You..you were busy in the study..So..I didn't want to bother you.."

Aaron's gaze were infuriated more once again as he replied aggressively,

" Lies!!!!!!!!!!!"

Esme gulped repeatedly as he continued squeezing her cheeks hard sternly,

" Tell me honestly, where did you go? Whom did you meet with? "

Esme read through his eyes deeply and knew that he was in extreme rage. Ayra had already been attacked by Ester once. She couldn't reveal Ayra to Aaron in case this clan dig out the hidden truth and got to know that Ayra was Athena's biological mother. Then vampire clan would start chasing Ayra like Ester. She couldn't push Ayra in danger again in order to save herself in front of Aaron.

Swallowing down, she asked bitterly,

" Are..are you suspecting that I am keeping a man outside behind your back? "

Her lips curled up into a provocative smirk as she added angrily,

" Don't worry, I don't have strippers like you."

Aaron's expression sank as he gritted his teeth tightly and warned,

" ESME !!!!!!!!! "

Esme sneered looking deep into his eyes and challenged,

" What?? Am I wrong? "

Aaron's face darkened in rage as he knew that she was stating the truth. He couldn't deny the truth that he didn't keep for himself to quest his thirst. Watching her raged eyes and a firm determination to annoy him to death, Aaron's mood worsened more. She was slipping the topic purposely but he wasn't ready to let her go today.

Pulling her face closer, he added proudly,

" How will you keep stripper when you have the most handsome vampire living by your side? Your taste hasn't turned so down, is it?"

Esme glared back at him harshly and suddenly bite down at his grasped hand suddenly. Feeling the sudden pain on his fingers, Aaron instinctively retreated back his hand hissing annoyingly and watched her furious expression.

She gritted her teeth harder and blurted out,

" Shameless!"

Without giving any more responses, she turned and started heading to go outside. 

Aaron's anger was aroused once again as he threatened shouting from his spot,

" One step out from this courtroom, you will be dead Esme Watts without giving me any answer."

Esme halted in her track as her entire body turned numb after hearing out his words. Turning around, she narrowed her eyes and asked back coldly,

" What?? You dare to kill me?"

Aaron rubbed his fingers gently and replied in his cold voice,

" Worse than death! Without my permission, you won't dare to step out of this courtroom."
