The Bride Of The Vampire King

Mila remembered the first thing Aaric did to her when they met for the second time to prove that she was a vampire by slashing her wrist with a knife.

However, since the current situation didn't give Mila a chance to find a knife, what she did was to use the only weapon in the room, such as the gun in Aaric's hand.

If Claire didn't die after Mila shot her, then her guess would be right. That this woman wasn't the real Claire, but if she did die… well, it was a shame then…

Mila didn't really care about Claire's life. Whether she died or not, it didn't matter to her, because right now all she needed was a proof.

On the other hand, Aaric was dumbfounded when he heard a loud gunshot and realized that Mila had just shot Claire.

"What are you doing?!" Aaric exclaimed frantically, the sound of the gunshots would giveaway their location to the special forces who were trying to find out where they were now.

Mila didn't even flinch when Aaric questioned her actions just now, but a cynical, triumphant smile curved on the corners of her lips, as she said in a low voice, "Just as I thought."

Intrigued, Aaric turned to see what had happened and found Claire's figure still standing unwaveringly even with a bullet through her head, not even a drop of blood had emerged from the hole in her head.

"What the hell," Aaric hissed. But then he realized what kind of creature they were dealing with right now, because in the next instant, Claire's figure was replaced with another. "The shifter…" Aaric said.

"So that is the name of their kind?" Mila asked curiously. She was intrigued to learn that there was such a creature. "Shifter?"

"Yes…they are not many of them, but they are very loyal to the nobles," Aaric informed Mila about this. "Damn. I didn't think they managed to follow us all the way here."

In front of them, stood the figure of a young man with a hollow forehead, but then something came out of the hole, which was none other than the bullet that Mila shot.

"Crown princess Mila, forgive my impertinence for doing this to you," he said politely, bowing his head respectfully, like a noble with high morals.

"Wow," Mila mumbled. "Now he is being really nice to me after I shot him."

"Sorry, but this has to be done," said the man as he raised his head and looked at Mila. "You must return to the palace immediately, the king has been looking for you for decades."

Mila raised her eyebrows when she heard this. She folded her arms across her chest, deep in thought. "Should I go with him?"

"Mila! We have agreed on this," Aaric protested again as Mila began to consider her choice to return to the world of vampires.

"I didn't agree to anything with you," Mila corrected Aaric, as she remembered very well that she had not promised the soul possessor anything.

"How are you going to bring her away after those special forces members broke into the house?!" this time Aaric called out to the shifter, while he seemed very calm in the face of the situation.

Mila tilted her head, waiting for the man in front of her to answer.

"You are not Ellen, are you?" the man analyzed Aaric. And at this point, he must have realized that even Ellen wasn't really herself. "You are the soul possessor who has brought the crown princess away from our world."

"You seem very famous," Mila said to Aaric, but no one could tell if she was praising the man or ridiculing him.

"Yes, thanks to you, I am one of the most wanted people in our world," Aaric replied sarcastically.

However, before the small debate could continue, the three of them turned their heads toward the door in unison when they heard the many footsteps approaching.

"They are here," Aaric hissed.

And when Aaric was about to turn to Mila again, he saw the shifter had changed back into Claire's figure and took the gun from Mila's hand deftly.

"This is the only way to get out of here," said the shifter as he grabbed Mila and pointed the gun at her head. "Please cooperate so we can get out of here safely."

Safely? Wasn't he the one who created this commotion by summoning the special forces? How could he shamelessly give such a command? As if he was the savior of the situation.

Meanwhile, Mila didn't give any reaction, the only expression she showed was curiosity about how this would turn out.

And when the special forces opened the door of the room, they found Claire had already secured the situation by arresting Mila.

This creature was really cunning in carrying out his plans and it was a shame that the shifters were so loyal to the vampires.
