Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord - 530 Twins
“That is just a foolish act!” Stefan could not help but blurt out aloud. He could feel the pain in his body and knew for sure that she was going to die just a few hours ago.
If she died, he would die too and he did not want to die for a vampire who had lost control.
“I thought you were a sane person. More than that, I thought that you are fighting for justice.” he cried vehemently as he stared at her.
She had helped Rafael back in the palace and now she had dismissed all the staff to make sure that only she was left in the palace with Rafael.
“He is not a criminal. He had not hurt anyone. And if you are afraid that my death would kill you too, then be assured, I will not die. He will not kill me.”
“……..” seriously! He wanted to open her head and see what gave her such confidence? He had already tried to kill her twice yet she was sure that he would not kill her. Humans are fools!
“But if you still have doubts, why don’t you help me in evading both of our deaths.” She stopped walking and turned towards him suddenly so that he took a step back.
The look in her eyes was dangerous and warning bells started to ring in his ears.
“What do you want from me?” he asked cautiously, knowing well that if she commanded him, he would not be able to refuse since she was his master.
“You and I are made of demon blood. We have dark powers but we never had lust for the blood of innocents. But.. we both know that it is there.
When I had gained my consciousness as a witch, I felt the urge to kill all my enemies and drink their blood. I wanted to be violent but I was able to control it after killing a few.” she was sure that she could have left those men alive when she went to save the kids or those witches.. Vampires.. She had killed anyone who had tried to attack her.
“We are demons. We are not kind beings! If not for you, I would have killed humans and survived on their blood but.. Why does it matter?” and he called Rafael a beast! Hah!
“Tell me how you do it?” she asked back when he frowned.
“I have consciousness. I can control my desires and feelings. Like every human has greed, jealousy and lust that force them to do bad deeds but most of them were able to control their desires and let their ethics lead them.” he shrugged it was common sense. Had she lost it too?
“Then if I help Rafael in gaining that he would control his urges too. There must be a way!” Stefan sighed. He did not have that conscious left, that was why he was corrupted. Why in the world could she not understand this simple thing?
“You know that you can give birth to a child any moment, right? Yet you have sent everyone away and taken risks with your life. Do you not want this child anymore?” That was the last way he could convince her that she should not be a fool when she touched her belly.
Fear and regret filled her.
“You are right. So, you would be the one to take care of Rafael for now while I will arrange the blood for him.” She left the room without giving him a chance to refuse.
Since everyone was living in peace, vampires had started to drink blood in glasses too when there was no one to offer them direct blood,
Many poor who wanted to earn money donate blood. And after proper check up by the witches, the blood was collected and then frozen by a spell so that it was not contaminated.
She just went to a blood shop and brought a lot of blood for him. When she came back, Rafael was chained to his bed while Stefan was sitting on the railing of the window and eating grapes leisurely.
“What is this?” she frowned and started to open the chains when Stefan scoffed.
“I am keeping him and others safe. Didn’t you ask me for that?” without any shame, he took another grape and placed it in his mouth and then read the book in his hands again when she shook her head.
“I was the one who asked him to do so.” Rafael mumbled as he sat, his senses were on alert again as he sniffed blood, he could feel his thirst for blood had increased a lot.
“Here, i have brought it all for you.” She took a glass from the side table and poured the blood for him which he was too hungry for. He gulped all the contents in a sip and asked for another which she gave him with a smile.
The darkness in his eyes started to subside after having his fill as he took a breath of relief.
“How many months are left?” he asked suddenly when her eyes softened,
“Only a month more.” she touched her belly when he closed his eyes and nodded.
“You should take more care of yourself, Hazel. And i…”

He touched it with hesitating hands when she covered his hands with hers and pressed it further. As if feeling the touch of both of them, the child inside kicked at the very moment startling Rafael whose eyes twinkled as if all the stars had taken solace there.
He was both thrilled and amazed at the feeling but her eyes kept staring at his eyes. She was more assured that he could be treated if he learned to keep his corruption at bay. For that, she would remind him of all the emotions he had forgotten!
