Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

"So, both of you leave the room." The sound of her shouting rang in the room, surprising Rafael who had thought all humans are afraid of him.

He looked at the physician closely with a look of suspicion in his eyes. He was too old to be this strong.

But Anne just ignored him. There was no way that he would be able to know that she was a witch.

She walked towards the bed of Hazel and sat on it as she held her pulse.

"Didn't I say to leave the room? Or do you want me to lift her dress in front of you." Her stern voice shocked both men but soon Rafael understood the meaning of his words and his face turned dark.

"What do you mean by lifting up her dress? You have to check the way she is or leave the room.

I will not let any man see her that way!" his desire to kill could be felt from afar when Anne realized that she had eaten more than she could chew.

She should have changed her form into a woman but then she was sure that the palace would not have any woman as a physician.

Though Rafael had not realized that she was a witch. She was sure that he would feel the presence of magic if she would absorb the powers of hazel but if she did not do that then her powers would continue to flow all over her body without any control.

"I am only doing my duty, my lord. The lady's pulse is not regular and I am sure that she had an injury. Since there is no cut or mark. I have to check by other means.`` She bowed her head as she knew that a physician could not be further daring but her words did not bring any change in the dark expressions of rafael.

"You do not need to worry about it. My dear wife is fine. She is only resting. You can check her pulse and then leave the room.

We will call you if needed." Though he still had that kind expression on his face, anyone could feel the pressure coming from his voice.

If not listened, he would choke the person to death when Anne gritted her teeth.

She had no other choice. She bowed her head and walked out of the room after checking the pulse but just after taking a few steps away followed by Lucian who was looking pale and worried, she whispered a spell.

Her eyes shone. Though she was still looking like a man, her voice turned feminie again and soon the whole palace started to burn.

The fire started with the room Vincent and Estella was in. so that it looked like it was their attempt to run away to others and they would think someone had tried to kill them.

If that was not enough, she changed her looks into a knight and started to shout with a voice full of panic.

"The palace is on fire, the palace is on fire. Help help!" Soon, the fire started to spread and the chaos ensued.

The guards started to run towards the fire to put it off while the group of councilmen came out of their meeting room and started to stare at the fire with different thoughts in their mind until they were escorted away.

"Why are you standing here like a fool? I have helped you so much. Now go and help Rafael and hazel in coming out and try to distract him.'' Lucian nodded as she glared at him and knocked the room again.

"Master, the whole palace is on fire. I think the prince had tried to run away by distracting others with fire.

You should leave the palace too." he muttered as he opened the door.

Rafael was holding Hazel in his arms and walking out of the room as the fire had started to spread through the curtains of his balcony.

When he walked out a part of burnt wood fell on him but he brought the body of hazel closer to his chest as if he was trying to hide her body when the wood fell on his back and burnt it.

The fire was burning his shirt but his expressions did not change as he continued to walk further when Anne fumed.

If he would not let her go then how would she help?

She noticed that she did not take the main door for exit but took Hazel into the internal garden of the palace.

If he would take her away from there, Anne would not be able to follow. She was.. She stomped her feet in anger and ran behind her.

Since she was in the form of a knight, she could always make excuses if he found out about her presence.

She let go of Lucian and followed Rafael when Lucian ran behind her too. He did not know why but he felt Rafael was behaving strangely.

For the past few days, he was trying to avoid the presence of Hazel as if he was running away from her but now.. He was behaving like she was the source of his living. He was gluing so much from her and not letting her go even for a second.

He should have already given hazel to Lucian and went to check on the council but he did not do so. Could it be that he already knew that Hazel was a witch and was trying to get hold of her thinking that she was acting to be a human to deceive him.

But that thought only worried him further as his speed increased when he noticed that Anne had already reached there.

But just as he reached closer, he felt there was an invisible wall. He tried to push but he could not enter.

The witch must have made it but what was she doing in there with Rafael.

Before he could open his mouth and ask to open the wall he saw Rafael attacking the witch and the whole area turned darker and disappeared into the thin air.
