Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

"Where did Hazel go?" Anne looked at the map in her hands and then scanned her surroundings. She had a frown on her face after giggling like a young girl all day.

She had come deeper into the forest but Hazel did not have any traces of being here. It had always been easier to find her sister for her.

Her aura was different from anyone else. But she could not trace it at all today!

She closed her eyes and tried to concentrate on the voices around her. When she felt the fading traces of the darker energy and finally she felt relieved.

Instead of continuing on the horse. She opened a portal and reached there to be faster.

Anne was stronger in opening every kind of portal. So, it did not take her much time to reach there but…

A man was cutting the vines formed around other four men and another man was holding… Delcan!!!!

"Delcan?" she shouted as she ran towards them, silver energy was already emitting from her hands.

She was a strong first generation witch that did not fear this kind of man. Though she did not want the truth to come out this way, she didn't care as long as she would be able to save her.

The man with dark skin and black eyes with no pupil in them turned to look at her with his head tilted.

He licked his lips with his coarse tongue when his eyes glowed again.

"Today is my lucky day! Who would have thought I would find so many witches today!" he said with an enticing tone as his eyes raked over her body.

There was no hint of fear but excitement that a beast felt after finding its prey.

"Let him go!" she demanded as she stood in front of the man.

She was sure that he was not a witch, she could not feel mana in him yet he was the one leaving the dark energy she had felt, not her sister.

Though Anne was sure that the vines were created by her sister, she did not find the traces of Hazel anymore.

"What if I don't?" asked the man with a chuckle as he increased his force on his body when Declan winced.

The pain was unbearable. His whole face had turned pale and looked so much in pain that Anne felt her anger rising.

"Then you will die from my hands." her tone turned low as she looked straight into the eyes of the man with her hands ready to attack.

Her lips started to move in an inaudible spell but the man only chuckled.

"You are just like your sister! Both of you think that only you have power!" he said with a hollow tone.

It was difficult to know if he was excited or raging.

But just when she attacked him with the daggers made of ice, they all melted before touching her.

Her eyes narrowed at the scene. There were more than a hundred daggers but not even a single one was able to touch him. He titled his head and then smirked as if he was laughing over a gullible child.

Anne gritted her teeth. She was not going to accept defeat that easily.

She moved her hands and attacked with a small iceberg but it was big enough to cover all five of the men at once.

It fell straight from the sky on the head of the man but it broke before touching him and melted whole in her air. It feels like a strong pour of rain instead of the ice that could hurt.

"Are you only able to do this much? And here I thought that you are stronger than the first generation of witches?" he said with a look of disgust on his face as he started to walk towards her while dragging the man with him.

"Aahhhhh!!" Declan cried as his eyes closed and his whole face crumpled. He was treated like an old ragged toy that was not needed anymore.

His knees and calf muscles were hitting all the stones and small rocks and soon his pants stained red.

Anne gritted her teeth. She knew that her spell was not working but she could not give up. She muttered another spell and waved her hands in front of the man who stopped abruptly.

His facial expressions changed but his body did not make her anxious.

Looking at her changing expressions, he finally laughed out loud, "did you really think that you can turn me into a toad with those lousy powers of yours?"

She gritted her teeth when he noticed that smirk on his face. He was challenging her!

"Run! Anne, you will not be able to fight him." Declan winced as his voice came out. He looked half lost in his consciousness and it looked like he would not be able to bear for long.

The man titled his hands and threw Declan on the ground towards her as if it was an object.

"Aahh!" he cried again when his back hit the ground. His eyes were hardly opening, yet he asked Anne to leave.

"You can not fight him, Anne. leave! You are strong enough to run away." he said with a lot of pain in his voice.

"Yeah! Listen to your lover, little girl, run and save your life because I like to chase my prey!" In the end he laughed viciously when her hands clenched into a tight fist.

"What do you want from us?" she asked as she knew that even if she opened a portal and was able to run away, Declan would die.

The man laughed while nodding his head.

"At least one of you is smart enough!" this was the first time that a praise felt like a cold and hard slap on her cheeks and her face burnt,

"Can you see my men being bound with the vines? It is done by your sister and I am not good at accepting insults. If you want to save your lover, go and bring your sister to me."
