His Witch Queen

"Tell me now!? What are you doing here?!" he yelled once again on her face when Alice came across his fierce face.

He was angry, or to be more specific, he was mad at her for coming here and getting herself off in danger. "I..i..I was here..for personal reasons.."

"Personal reasons?! Alice, are your fucking an idiot!? Don't you know that this place is prohibited?! Doesn't your brother know this?!" for the very first time, he called her hame, which made Alice's heartbeat skip a beat.

For unknown reasons, she found his terror to be even worse than what she is undergoing.

No..she is sure that he is even more badly hurt by what just happened. Nevertheless, to say, he had saved her.

Her eyes were uncontrollably shaking where she found herself to be in an even worse situation ever. "We know…"

"Then?! How come Prince Dominic allowed you to come here?! Do you fucking even have an idea what would have happened if I didn't 't show up right now?!" he asked again, where there was no way for his anger to calm down.

With the same intensity, he actually ended up throwing his fist against the tree behind her, making Alice's eyes close immediately.

She could feel the tree behind her shaking due to the amount he used to punch his hand but it scared her.

It brought the yells out of her wits.

'I need to calm him down…' because if this vampire keeps on turning more mad, who knows what will he end up doing.

In the end, Alice took a deep breath before she brought his hand into hers to hold it more tightly. "You don't have to worry. I'm Safe, Prince Cyrus."

"Nothing happened to me and you can rest assured. So…why think of the wrong possibilities?" Alice kept her sweet voice despite her heart was hammering against her chest.

Just staring at his brown eyes turning into red ones, under the full moon gave her the hopes that he is undergoing emotions that were hard to depict.

The fact that she was so closely standing near a vampire made her feel awkward.

Yet what was needed right now was to calm this monster "It is fine..you can just take a deep breath."

Without answering her back, Cyrus took a deep breath to not let his rage become far worse than his one control.

His darkness is sometimes enough to cover his entire mind. With this thought, his hands massage his forehead before he nods his head.

But when she sensed him already calming a bit, her mouth opened to say, "Wel...I should be the one to ask you, what are you doing here? Were you following me and brother?"

As if her wordings made Cyrus's shape eyes fall on her head, he came close to another small body of hers before his hands cupped her jaw hard.

His harsh actions hurt her but in the back of her mind, it was hard to concentrate eyes from that of his red ones.

"About me? Be grateful that I saved you Princess…" he paused when a mocking smirk curved on his lips, "...Otherwise you would have ended up being the meal of this wolf who lies on the ground."

Was it necessary to make her relive the same? At the same time, Alice could feel her jaw on the verge of breaking if he doesn't leave her at that point.

It was painful!

"Y...You.." no words lied out of her mouth as he tightened his grip even more where a sharp pain hit her up till brain.

Ultimately, she had to close her eyes to not let her eyes swell up with tears. Also, she used her leg to punch him hard which made Cyrus take a few steps to stabilize them.

"Stay away!! I already thanked you for saving me, so leave me alone now!' Alice yelled when she brought her hands near her chin to caress it slightly.

Probably, a mark already left there.

While Cyrus's eyes glowed with the sly glint and fury, in contrast to him, Alice was bent on staying away from these vampires.

Especially the one who is going to her brother-in-law in just one day.

A scoff left his lips when he lifted his eyes to stare at the little human girl trying to put the act of bravery wherein the reality, she's nothing but a merely a weakling who knows nothing except the task of putting herself in different dangers.

"You are such a headache, Princess….It is me who saved you. First, you make the mistake of coming here and later on, ask me to stay away from you?" He found this to be extremely ridiculous in his eyes.

Needless, Alice had nothing to say in her defense anymore. Without wasting her time on him, she was ready to walk in the direction of the cave she has earlier seen.

However, when she took a few steps, the Prince held her first again to stop her. "You aren't going anywhere else for now!"

"Leave my hand, you are no one to question me."

Alice replied with the same aloofness that covered her heart. But her stubborn nature irked Prince Cyrus.

He hates those who act like selfish people. Without the knowledge of the consequences already.

With no other option left, he pulled her through her wrist closer to him, where his other handheld her by the neck. Her back hit him against his chest with a thud!

His actions surprised Alice to the next core where her eyes widened. Her breath was caught in the middle where the lock he made over there.

Immediately, her hands traveled on his hand to remove that from her neck,

"Let me go, Prince Cyrus!?"

"You are coming back to the Castle with me. That's simple."

He had already given her the ultimatum, making her heart almost strangle him to death. Yet she wasn't in any position to do so.

Rather, she brought her lips near his hand where she hit his hands from her teeth with all the strength present in her mouth. It was deep until she felt his skin already tearing up and sensed some blood in her mouth.

On seeing her doing this task, Cyrus's eyes glowed with a sly smirk that plastered over his lips to find this human doing something, which surely will have no effect on him.

"Keep doing… but you forgot that you are tasting my blood, Princess Alice. Doing this with your future brother-in-law? Tsk…"
