Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

She used all the force she had and all the powers she had taken from the witches to create a blast that threw her mother a few feet away

Everyone looked at the scene with shock when Scarlet rose high in the sky and then fell on the ground with a thump.

Rafael forgot about Diana completely as he ran to hold Scarlet in his arms.

"Are you okay?" worry and tension was clear in his face when he scanned her body and was horrified to see the cuts were not healing and a lot of blood was flowing away.

"I have not taken the healing potion full of Hazel's power when she gave it to me." she explained as the Beryllium did not work on others but it affected her like a curse when his eyes widened.

Even Hazel who was watching the whole scene with a distance to make sure their emotions would not hurt was shocked and ran to them.

"How could that be.. I have.."

"I changed the bottle because I was sure that you were playing a trick and trapping us and my daughter could never plan to kill us." She accepted her folly. She had so much trust on vampires and distrust on witches that she had been blind.

"Witches have killed our lord, our lady and my husband. I was never able to forgive them. I was never able to forgive you!" She tried to raise her trembling hands but she did not have much strength left. "That was why I have always blamed you but I forgot.. Not every vampire is made with the same thoughts. So how could every witch be cruel and wicked."

Her eyes dimmed with pain.

"I am sorry for always tormenting you and I have a confession to make.." her voice lowered as she coughed more blood.

"You can do it later. Let me heal you first." she closed her eyes and whispered spells to heal but it barely made the difference. The blood slowed down but it was still dripping from her body and the wound did not heal.

"You do not need to do that. I want to go and meet my husband now. I have lived enough. There is nothing left for me here." Rafael shook his head but Diana only kept staring at the distance as if she didn't mind her dying but her heart shook too.

"Before leaving, I want to confess something. In your last life.. It was me who had fed you poison in the name of the ritual of our family the night you were going to marry Rafael and then gave you to your mother.

She had told me that it was a potion that would keep you unconscious until they take you far away but I would have still done it if I had known that it was a poison and you would die.

I.. I did not want you to end up with Rafael but my daughter." the eyes of Diana shook as she remembered that day.

It was she who had brought that witch in the palace and convinced her mother to help them in throwing Bella out so that she could marry Rafael that day and in the end, Scarlet had accepted their plan.

"I.. I am.. Sorry!" The body turned cold in both of their arms as Scarlet closed her eyes when Rafael pulled her into a hug with tears in his eyes.

Hazel took a step back and sighed. She did not blame scarlet. She did not even remember the day so she forgave her the moment and felt bad for her death but what hurt her worse was the woman was so unlucky to die by the hands of her own daughter who did not have any remorse.

She glared at Diana who snarled back.

"Do you think you are still the dark witch who could control me and force me to do your bidding? Ha! I am much stronger now. And you.. You are weak. This time I am going to win." with that she held the dagger tightly and ran towards Hazel with the intention to kill her and end this matter for forever.

She had seen the hesitation in the eyes of Rafael. Once Hazel was gone, he had to chose her this time.

Hazel's hands moved and strong flames of fire started to flow out of her fingers and attacked Diana but she was wearing the pendant of Rafael that could protect her from all kinds of magical spells.

"I have taken it as a mortgage. Your tricks would not work on me.'' Hazel glared and picked up the sword from a knight instead as she ran to attack but she was not strong and Diana was a vampire.

Her strength was much more than any human. Her movements were precise and the single attack was enough to graze the hands of Hazel who used the spell to save herself but she staggered on her feet.

She was weak and needed rest badly but she knew that Rafael would never be able to kill DIana and she needed to die for peace.

Diana smirked as she flipped and then attacked Hazel again who took a step back and saved herself at the narrow end.

Many vampires came forward to help her when Diana scoffed.

"So you are going to use so many people against me! In the end, you are just a weak witch who use seduction to ask others for help.'' Hazel shook her head while looking at all those vampires and witches.

"This is no more the fight of existence but a lesson that I need to teach a woman who is vying for my husband and thinks she is better than me. No one would intervene. I will defeat her myself." she declared as she held the sword again and tried to attack Diana but her force was not enough.

Diana easily pushed her sword away and attacked instead.

'You are a fool! Go die!"
