Loved By a Vampire King

Silas finished his words with a long sigh. How much he wished to save the baby, only god knew! Silence engulfed the air between them as the audience were left with shock after his words.

Ayra couldn't suppress a gasp that slipped through her lips. Tilting her head aside, she saw Cedric squeezing his eyes shut to intake a deep breath shakingly as if he was trying to absorb those pains,hurt that he felt by the news. Ayra couldn't blame him for being so vulnerable this time. Though their past weren't clear to her, little did she knew that this Dixon family had more complicated stories than rumours said about them.

Isabella who never talked about his late husband was the most suspicious one among all of it. Ayra wasn't in rush of knowing everything at a time. People don't share their scars so easily. Being born with several complicated stories, Ayra was well aware of it.

As much as Cedric was shattered by the news, Ayra was equally concerned and hurt after hearing about Isabella. During the days in Dixon Palace, their bond really grew strong and Ayra understood that Isabella was a pure soul. The happiness that she had on her face during the time of pregnancy still lingered in Ayra's mind. That unborn child was the hope for her living in this world.

Why did fate snatched her every little happiness?

Ayra wondered in her mind and at the same, she couldn't help but thinking about who were those monsters that hurt a pregnant woman. Even enemies don't do such hemnious crime.

King Draco broke the silence upon showing his concern on Isabella's condition,

" God bless that child! Don't up upset, King Cedric! At least, your sister is alive and I believe that God has other plans for her future."

Cedric tried to assert the news with a little hum. He wandered how would he explain the matter to Isabella or Jessie. He waited for Jessie to return from her location but they didn't know where did she go after knowing the news. Though Cedric had some thoughts about this matter in his matter, he pushed them away. Right now, paying their whole attention on Isabella was the main priority.

Ayra passed Cedric a worried look. He wasn't speaking too much but Ayra noticed few changes in his expression. His dominant aura had now replaced with a fragile, vulnerable as if he had lost his interest of living in this world. Unknowingly, she wanted to console him, let him know that she was there for him in every single step.

Speaking nothing, Ayra simply stepped closer by his side and clasped his palm softly. Cedric didn't dodge but let a soft sigh lowly.

He muttered trying to stop the tremble in his tone,

" Where is she?"

Silas informed turning grim a little,

" Asleep. We have confined those rogues who attacked on her carriage. Most of your guards are dead but I have found a middle aged woman who was hurt slightly. I assume that she is your relative. They are all resting in our quarter. But I would like to confess something, Your Highness! "

Cedric pulled his eyes up little suspiciously on Silas. Taking a deep breath, Silas explained the truth fearlessly,

" Actually.. Princess Isabella had a critical situation in where we could save only one person either her or the baby.. You didn't reach the castle at that time. So I made the decision. I asked those physicians to save her."

Silas hung his head low after telling the truth. Other side, King Draco had a frightened expression on his face.

This fool.. Couldn't he say less to king Cedric?

King Draco was afraid that Cedric would have chosen the child over her sister. After all, that child was the next heir of Davina and was a member of DAVINA's Royal Family.

Ayra replied before Cedric could say anything,

" You did the right thing, Duke Silas. We would have done the same. Sister Isabella is more important to us. It's a pity that the child couldn't be saved but we don't blame you for making the choice."

Cedric agreed feeling a little ease that Ayra was holding his hand all the time,

" That's right. I would have done the same. Have you found anything from those bastards?"

Cedric questioned coldly. His eyes glowed strangely as if burning lavas would pop out anytime soon. 

Silas was relieved that they had no objections on his decision. He replied narrowing his gaze deeply,

" They have told me a name! Prince Shanz! "

Cedric's jaw clenched in anger. In a matter of second, Ayra could feel that his temperature was rising mysteriously. As their hands were intertwined, it was easier for her to feel the burning heat from his skin. At one point, his skin felt so hot that Ayra felt like her own hands would catch fire if she kept holding onto him.

Unware about the changes in his body, Cedric kept growling lowly. His demon that had been sober for a long time pleaded to come on surface. The following moment, his voice dramatically changed that horrified everyone around,

" Where are they?"

Not even Silas, Ayra was jumped aside upon hearing his new voice. His tone sounded odd, a mixture of grumpy and raspy as if he was the king that walked out of the hell.

Ayra gulped pulling her eyes up to glance at others who seemed utterly shocked on his change. To avoid arising any suspicious situation, Ayra cleared her throat and brought their attention back on her purposely,

" Your Highness! We should visit Sister Isabella first. The rest can be settled later on."

Cedric was awakened by Ayra's nervous tone. As if he was pulled back to reality, Cedric let out a frustrated growl. It was hard to fight with the demon that lives inside you.

Cedric was convinced by Ayra's words. Having second thought, he looked up at Silas suddenly and asked out of curiosity,

" As far as I remember, sister Isabella has a rare disease in her body. Her bleeding doesn't stop easily. Duke Silas, how did you manage to stop her bleeding?"
