The Bride Of The Vampire King

Hearing the guard's question, Mila only glanced at Aaric, not at all intending to help the soul possessor in answering the question.

"In this situation, I am required to bring this research object out of the building," Aaric said calmly. "Don't you know the protocol?" Then, he narrowed his eyes slightly. "That the object of research also has the same priority as every other person in an emergency situation like this?"

The guard looked confused in response to this, but he still insisted on seeing the permit that allowed Mila to leave the building.

"I am sorry Dr. Steve, but I can't let this research object out of the building until I see a letter of permit, stamped by the higher authorities," the guard replied, being annoyingly adamant. He actually did his job well.

"How could I ask for such a permit under these circumstances?!" this time Aaric shouted angrily. "That is so unreasonable! Who will issue an evacuation permit for the research object when the research building itself is being attacked?"

What Aaric said was quite reasonable too, but all the guards in the building of course already knew Mila and not to mention the recent incident that involved Mila. It went without saying that the security around her had been tightened, therefore, they didn't want to risk losing their valuable object of research.

Moreover, the credibility of Dr. Steve's intentions toward Mila was still being questioned, even though the last time It was Dr.Steve, who saved Mila's life when an intruder infiltrated the security system and tried to take her away.

"Then, please confirm this," the guard said, looking for a better way to handle this situation. "You can contact Professor Ben Kingstone to confirm this."

The guard then gave his communication device to Dr. Steve so he could contact his superior to confirm the situation.

Seeing the persistence of the guard, Aaric frowned, what reason could he give for them to pass through this guard safely?

Meanwhile, the alarm on Mila's feet kept ringing, in rhythm with the warning alarm that indicated for the researchers and anyone else in the building to evacuate as soon as possible.

Things were really rowdy and very noisy right now, forcing everyone to tense up.

"Please contact Professor Ben Kingstone to confirm this," the guard again handed over the communication device that Aaric didn't take.

On the other hand, Mila was getting impatient with their situation and she wanted to quickly remove the anklet that was bothering her.

Thus, she did something completely unexpected.

Without a word, Mila clenched her fist and smacked it right into the guard's face who was still asking Aaric to contact Professor Ben Kingstone to confirm permission to take Mila out of the building.

"Mila! What are you doing?!" Aaric exclaimed, he was stunned at what this woman had just done.

Not only did Mila beat up the guard, but she also made sure that the guard couldn't get up in time to catch up to them.

After the first blow, Mila took the taser that was on the guard's waist with astonishing speed and used it to immobilize the guard.

Of course, what Mila did made the people around them that were already panicking about the sudden attacks launched by the vampires, became even more terrified.

However, Mila was not affected by it at all, she moved very deftly, solely based on her instincts.

"Didn't you tell yourself that we don't have much time?" Mila asked back, she then took the communication device that the guard had offered to Dr. Steve, so that he could contact Professor Ben Kingstone, and gave it to Aaric. "Use it to find out the position of the other guards."

Aaric then swiftly took the communicator into one hand and grabbed Mila's hand with the other. He then pushed through the crowd of people who screamed in terror as they got near the female vampire.

However, the nearby guards, realizing that their partner had been immobilized, immediately called for reinforcements to restrain Mila and Dr. Steve.

"You are making the situation worse," Aaric grumbled as he pushed the people around them so the two of them could pass safely.

"The situation is already not in our favour, so what else do you expect?" Mila shrugged nonchalantly. "I am just helping you make it simpler."

"Tch, I seem to have forgotten how brutal you are," Aaric grumbled as they passed through the first door that would lead them to the second tier of security where there were already many other guards waiting for them. It would not be an easy fight…

"I am glad I am not weak," Mila said casually, then smiled sarcastically when she saw the guards who were ready to arrest the two of them. "Looks like I have to show my brutal side again."

"Mila, don't do anything," Aaric ordered Mila, then he stopped running, sending Mila crashing into his back.

"What now? You want to have a nice talk with them like you did with the guard from earlier?" Mila sneered at Aaric. That would be the stupidest thing she would ever encounter, if that was his plan. "I thought I was being very naive, but looking at you, it seems that I am not that naive."
