Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

The darkness in the room with the soft glow of candles in some corners gives the room an eerie feeling.

She did not understand how a vampire would be interested in knowing the future or past? That was just an absurd idea yet she followed him closely as she did not want to get lost in this darkness with the men that were following them since they had entered this town.

The way their eyes scanned Hazel, gives her repulsive feelings.

Soon, they entered a room and a man with dark glasses on his eyes was sitting on the corner. The room was fancy with all kinds of decoration and painting that mostly looked foreign to her.

Even the man sitting there.

“Rafael, I have never thought that you would come back! After..!” after what! Hazel stared at the man and then at Rafael.

She had felt that in the backroom of the auction too. The man had stopped speaking in the middle when his eyes had met the cold eyes of Rafael’s._.

“Ah, I can see that there’s a lady with you. Did you come here to introduce me with her.” he chuckled as he waved towards Hazel to come closer.

Hazel did not move from her place but turned to look at Rafael who nodded his head. He held her hands and brought her on the seats in front of the old man who smiled warmly as if he had met a long lost acquaintance.

“Give me your hand dear.” Hazel hesitated for a second before placing her hands on the palms of the man.

She had a habit of judging the person with his eyes but due to the dark glasses on his eyes, she was not able to know what his intentions were.

Placing her hands on his, she waited for him to give his prophecy nothing happened. The man traced the outline of her hands and then took out a pin from god knows where and pierced it into her finger.

She winced as a few drops of blood dripped from her hands which he collected in a bowl instantly making her frown.

She snapped her head towards Rafael instantly with a look of bewilderment in her eyes but there was no reaction on his face.

It looked more like black magic than foretelling to her eyes that she squirmed.

The blood was poured on a sheet that was glowing. Her eyes widened when she saw the blood moving on its own.

Like the veins in the body, the blood started to form small channels and spread like a wide tree with a lot of branches.

For some reason, her heart beat increased when it continued to flow.

“What is going on?” her words fell into deaf ears as they both continued to look at the sheet as if their life was spending on it.

“There are no traces of magic! She is just a human!” as the words slipped the mouth of the old man who did not like to talk enough by the way he only replied curtly, Hazel sighed!

What was that for? Where did the thought that she had magic in her body come from?

“What about her past?”

“She was born from a human! The man kept him locked all her life. There is nothing but to see, the past is bleak and the future.. Her future is shining but it is hazy.

She had the capability to change it but i can not see you there.” Though she could not understand much, what she got was he was checking her origins and he was not even trying to hide it.

But what did the old man mean by he was not there. Could it be that she had escaped from the palace in the future, he was looking at or was he just bluffing?

No matter what the truth is, she did not like the way it brought a frown on his face. He seemed to be looking displeased by every information he had gathered as his lips had pursued and her scarlet eyes turned a shade darker.

She wanted to call him and ask him what was happening but when she stared at his face, dread started to fill her heart.

He had already told her that he was territorial and did not like when things that belong to him develop affinity to others.

“I do not think so!” both men turned to stare at her when she banged the table lightly.

“I do not think that my future could be decided by that. I am loyal to the lord and I am seeing my future with him only.

If he would not be there, I would not have any future.“ That would be enough to curb his anger for now, right?

“I never said that the future can not be changed. You my dear have a very strong will and heart.” The man brought his hands closer to her and rubbed her palm as if he was trying to find something on it.

“It is a shame that you are a human. If not, you could have surpassed Rafael in his powers.

It would have been a scene to see him losing again!” The man chuckled and shook his head while Hazel prayed for her life.

Why did it feel like the man was trying to get him killed? How could he even think that she would be able to defeat this vampire.

He turned to stare at her but instead of anger, his eyes were filled with excitement as his eyes were shining like rubies but then dimmed before she could even react.

“Hazel, why don’t you go out and look around since we are going to leave soon.” a frown formed on her lips as she did not like the idea of Rafael being alone with this old man.

She wanted to reuse but his eyes narrowed on her and demanded obedience so she could only nod and leave but her eyes continued to turn and look at the old man as if warning him to not spout nonsense.

“Oh my, i am glad that i did not have eyes or your wife would have plucked them out.”
