Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord - 536 [Bonus chapter]

“The culprit must burn in the river of Phlegethon to make sure it will realize that the words of the princess are absolute. Anyone who would go against the princess would have to bear the consequences.” The gut wrenching sound was coming from the dark when fifteen year old Lucy saw herself sitting on a strange throne made of rocks and covered with thorns.

The place was dark and full of strange men standing there and cheering as if they were happy when the criminal was dragged. She could see the cracks on the ground that had fire flowing in them instead of water.

The place was so ominous that Lucy broke in the cold sweats as she held her duvet tightly.

“Princess, would you like to take a rest now. I have arranged your favorite demons to entertain you.” Lucy felt that the girl turned to look at her smirked as if she had felt her presence and she flinched.

With a start, she sat on the bed and looked around. She was still in her room, on her bed completely perfect. But what was that! It was not the first time that Lucy had seen such a nightmare.

Though the contents were different every time, the place was always the same. She herself sitting or walking in that dark place covered with fire, stench of blood and reeked of alcohol.

“Princess! Are you awake?” she heard the voice of her nanny and sighed. The old lady was going to scold her again.

“Yes, I was thinking of starting the day early with a walk.” She stood up and saw three maids waiting for her.

“It would have sounded realistic, if it was morning, my lady.” Lucy looked towards the window when a maid mercilessly opened the curtain and she had to cover her face for the sudden brightness. It was already noon!

“Lady is very angry, princess. She had asked us to escort you to her room this instant.” Lucy gulped. If he was her mother, she was going to die and really end up in the underworld.

“Where is father?” she asked in a soft voice when the eyes of her nanny narrowed.

“Princess! You should not be depending on the lord for everything. You must go and see your mother this instant. Let me lead the way.” she started walking and Lucy had to follow the old woman with a sigh when her maid whispered in her ears,

“I have seen the lord in his office with the count. If you are fast…” the eyes of Lucy brightened. She looked at the young girl gratefully and ran on the other side as soon as she walked out of the room.

“Princess! Princess.. You should not run like that. A lady should…” Lucy did not pay attention to such words as she ran fast and only stopped when she reached the office of her father and knocked on it.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

“Father!” she exclaimed as Rafael smiled at her and waved his hands. Lucy smiled and ran to him, “father, mother is angry with me again. She had called me in her room. Will you accompany me there, please.” The young girl looked at her father with her big crimson eyes when he felt his resolve weakening.

Of course, he knew that Hazel had called her. And she had warned him to stay out of this matter. But when he looked at the pitiful eyes of his daughter, he sighed.

“Alright! But she is not going to listen to me.” Lucy hugged him hard with a smile. She did not believe that her mother was not going to listen to the pleas of her father.

“Thank you father, you are the best.” she muttered as she already started dragging him from his office. Rafael sighed as he looked at the sky, praying that god might save him from the anger of his wife.

As they walked to her room, they saw Oliver and Olivia sitting there with Ana and Declan and Mikhael, younger brother of Lucy sitting closer to Hazel and reciting the sonnet in his soft voice.

“Mother!” Lucy chirped in a sweet voice as she waved a hand to her cousins who shook their heads and looked at Hazel whose eyes were narrowed on Lucy.

“Did you forget that I have told you to come here for the gathering early in the morning?” Hazel asked in a cold voice as she placed her tea cup back on the table, “your aunt and cousins had come to meet you especially from far away but you did not have time to meet them.” Lucy gulped as she knew her mother was really mad.

She was awake all night to make sure that she did not miss it but she could not help when her nightmare took over. As if she was bound to that place and those voices. Even if she tried to wake up, she just could not. As if someone wants her to witness the whole scene.

She was afraid that they all would think she was crazy. Since she was sure that the person in her dreams was her but at the same time she was seeing the whole scene as a spectator and that girl stared at her each time as if she knew that Lucy was present and she felt herself losing her breath every time that happened.

“Are you even listening to us!” Lucy flinched at the cold voice of her mother.

“It is alright, Lucy is in her teenage years. I am sure she had a lot of matters to deal with. Not to forget that she is the first vampire with the power of witches, it must be taxing to perform spells all the time. Right dear?” Ana asked in a soft voice when Hazel shook her head.

“She is just too pampered and needs punishment.”
