Hazel raised the dagger as she tried to stab Lucian again but he held her hands tightly and shook his head as if he was handling the tantrums of a kid.
“Hazel, Hazel! I know that you are angry at me for my rude actions but you must know that I am doing all this for your welfare only.
Rafael is not good for you. He did not love you and would never do. While i.. I will always be with you and cherish you.” he touched her face as if he was looking at a goddess. A wonder that only belonged to him.
“Who said so?” Hazel who was collecting all her left strength to attack on the fool again.
She did not want to kill him but she wanted to teach him a good lesson so that he would wake up from his dream.
The dagger was a distraction so that he did not notice that she was going to attack his core. Once his core would be dealt with, she was going to punch him till his face turned red and blue.
But the sudden voice shocked her..
They both turned to stare at the door or to the person to be exact.

His body moved on his own instincts and he snatched Hazel away from his arms and then hid her behind him.
“When it comes to my wife, I am a possessive person up to the limit of obsession. I have let you alive even after knowing that you are a witch because you were loyal to her and she needed protection.
Who would have thought that you would not head to my warning and dare to touch her.
I should have known that witches could never be trusted!” his eyes turned colour and emitting such strong pressure that Lucian could feel his bones crushing.
He had already used more of his core energy and now was not in a condition tonight with Rafael if he challenged him head on.
“Wife? Are you not ashamed to call her that when you have always ignored her and left her alone? Now that you know that she is powerful, you only want to use her.” he said through gritted teeth as he tried to follow the same trick of collecting all his energy so that he could give a good blow to Rafael who laughed very very coldly.
His hands reached the throat of Lucian without wasting another second.
“You should never treat your servants better, they would only take it for granted and be more greedy.
Do you think you have the right to decide for her when even i never forced my thoughts on her. Huh?” He raised Lucian high in the sky who struggled.
The single weakness those powerful witches were, if they used a lot of their powers their power got depleted and then they needed time to replenish it or s grade mana stones that hold a lot of Ether (mana) , a core energy they needed to perform the spell.
When Lucian killed Vincent, he had depleted himself completely since he was using a lot of his powers all the time when he was trying to subdue Hazel.
Yet the desire to have her did not let him accept defeat.
Rafael put more force in it. It would only be a matter of seconds before he would be dead.
Lucian was trying to struggle and using the energy of wind but it was too slow to move a strong vampire.
He tried to mutter spells but the pressure on his neck was too much. He was not having enough air in his lungs.
His flail attempts were not enough to get him free.
“Let him go!” Just when Lucian was greeting his teeth and thinking of summoning all his energy to create an explosion, he heard Hazel speaking for her and his eyes sparkled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRafael turned to look at her with shock which soon turned into annoyance as he ignored her words and continued to place more pressure on his neck.
“Hazel.. Do.. not worry. If we can not be together when we are alive. We will die together!” he muttered with much difficulty since he was not able to speak.
He had decided that he would explode himself. Then the three of them would die together. This way he would be able to take his revenge from the vampire for all those witches he had killed and he would be able to be with Hazel in the afterlife.
Most of the witches take rebirth for their love if their love was true. He had read about a spell that mentioned the ritual to being reincarnated for your lover written by the first generation of witches.
“I can see that you still have the energy to utter nonsense!” Rafael not only increased the pressure in his hands but even took out his gun he always kept closer.
Hazel’s eyes widened. The witch in her wanted to kill Lucian too but somewhere she felt that she was still indebted to him.
“I said let him go. He is my sinner and I should be the one punishing him.“ this time her voice was demanding as she held his shoulders and pushed him back.
Rafael irked. He could not let go of a fool who thought that he had all the power and spouted nonsense as he desired. He stared at Lucian who had that irritating grin on his face but then at Hazel who was demanding.
He knew that he was going to have another battle of wits from her if he would not listen to her at that moment.
“Boom!” he was still thinking if he should let go when Lucian burned the hands of Rafael and got himself free.
“You should not be so worried about my love.”
