Loved By a Vampire King

||RECOMMENDED SONG: Fire On Fire By Sam

Debisa stepped backward awkwardly. His head arched up in the air beautifully before an animalistic snarl broke out from his mouth. The palace trembled violently at his hungry cry as if he was starving to eat something.

Ayra staggered back instinctively, confused about his sudden anger and started to feel worry. Debisa shot his burning eyes down at Ayra. His claws clenched tightly and started to move towards Ayra's way dangerously. His face had no sign of calmness and anger laced out from his face.

Cedric wasn't so far away from them. He was patting Arcabous when he noticed the change in Debisa. He was shocked to see that Debisa was attempting to hurt Ayra which had never happened before. As long as the person had Cedric's smell, Debisa or Arcabous both acted obedient.

Before Debisa could come one meter close to Ayra's body, Cedric flashed over there and shielded Ayra behind. Lucky he had his fast speed to reach over there or else Debisa would have done something unexpected.

Debisa retreated his claws after Cedric's arrival. His eyes looked through Cedric's eyes that started changing color. With a furious snarl, Cedric's low threatening voice travelled inside Debisa's ears,

" You are forgetting that who is your master, 

Debisa! "

Debisa grunted at Cedric unhappily. His eyes were speaking something but Cedric didn't understand them. Cedric spoke approaching Debisa dangerously as the dragon started to retreat fearfully,

" You are challenging your master, Debisa? Are you?"

Debisa started to snarl and staggered backwards. His eyes suddenly turned guilty as he couldn't look through Cedric's eyes. Knowing that he had done a mistake, Debisa snarled one last time before flying high in the sky and dissapared behind the dark clouds.

Cedric watched his flying back blankly. Debisa acted strange today more necessarily he was actually thinking about attacking Ayra.

Why would he do that?

Cedric began to wander inside his mind and was in dillemma. On the other side, Ayra was little afraid. After all, she never encountered an angry dragon. Though she had powers of defeating creatures, Dragon was different in her category. She didn't know how to shield herself from them.

Looking at Cedric's standing back, she murmured apologizotically,

" I..I..am.. sorry..I made him angry probably.."

Cedric didn't disclose the matter fully in front of Ayra. He turned around to face her and teased with a flirtatious smile,

" Perhaps.. your beauty scared him.."

Ayra blushed before muttering incoherently,

" You are too much seriously. How will we go now?"

Cedric assured pointing at Arcabous,

" We still have the other one. Don't be afraid. I will be there with you."

Ayra nodded with hesitation and peered at Arcabous nervously. Indeed this one looked much more obedient and calm than Debisa.

Frenchies came in outdoor in case his presence was needed. When he saw Ayra approaching Arcabous nervously, he wanted to offer a helping hand. But his subconscious mind reminded him of Cedric's last incident.

He dropped the idea and stepped away. The drive took no less than ten minutes to arrive at the palace of BALVINA. Cedric was extra careful during the ride and made sure that Arcabous wasn't bothered about Ayra's presence.

He still didn't understand why Debisa was so disobedient today! 

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the giant dragon landed down in the front yard of BALVINA's Royal Palace. The onlookers around all seemed excited when they saw the dragon. They immediately understood that the king of Basarisk had come. Though their king was Robert, they always admired Cedric's capabilities.

Only the smile on the Royals faces had dissapared after their arrival. Bringing the dragon with them had defined only one meaning that Cedric was more capable than their king which was an indirect insult for Robert.

Sienna felt her blood boiling after watching how preciously Cedric helped Ayra to get down. Robert forced a smile and greeted them reluctantly,

" Welcome to BALVINA, Cedric. We are honoured that you have accepted our invitation."

Cedric wasn't listening to him attentively. He was busy in fixing Ayra's long floor touching gown and hummed absentmindedly as a response. Ayra felt awkward and pushed his hands away gently.

A woman from other side entered into the spot with a smile,

" You have gotten a lovely wife, Cedric."

Ayra looked up at the way and saw a middle aged woman walking in. She looked elegant in her blue loose gown. But there was something mysterious, threatening in her eyes as if she was possesed in sucking someone's soul.

Robert took the lead to introduce his wife to Ayra excitedly,

" This is my wife, Angelica."

Ayra looked through her eyes once before giving a slight bow as a show of respect. Snapping his eyes at Angelica, Cedric finally replied on behalf of her wife,

" Well, I should tell my wife to wear a black mark, aunty. Who knows whose evil eye would bring misfortune on her since she has so many admirers!"

Angelica's fake wide smile fell as she gritted her teeth harder. This man had no restraint when it came to humaliate anyone. Ayra watched when Angelica didn't dare to protest against his words. Instead she cleared her throat and showed them the way of entrance,

" Umm.. Let's get going inside together.. The foods are turning cold.."

Robert also urged anxiously,

" Yes, yes. We should have breakfast first. We can chat later."

Cedric rolled his eyes at them and entered into the palace together with Ayra who felt little discomfort. The way they looked at her as if she was being outsider here and they didn't expect her presence.

Sienna didn't enter with them instead tugged on her mother's arms unhappily,

" Did you see mum? Cedric is so protective with this woman. I can't tolerate it ever. I should be the queen instead of her. She is older than him. How can he marry such a elder aged woman? Isn't it ridiculous or do you think that he has a hidden motive?"

Angelica shook her head unknowingly. Staring hard at Ayra's back harshly, Angelica snorted out coldly,

" She is just a weak fairy. Didn't you see that she didn't speak to us? Perhaps she is just afraid of provoking us. Since she is in our palace now, we can't let go of her without teaching her a lesson."

Sienna's face beamed in excitement. Curling her lips up into an evil smirk, she replied shortly,

" Well, she found a little arrogant last time but she appears to be weak. We can teach her together a good lesson."
