The Bride Of The Vampire King

This was the first time they saw each other after decades of not crossing paths and who would have thought that such a 'long-awaited' meeting would take place like this.

"It would be for the better if you retreat, your majesty," Andreas, the head of security and also a friend of Liam, whispered, as he placed himself before the king, blocking Liam's line of sight effectively. "Please go back and let us take care of the problem here."

Needless to say, this place would soon be besieged by special forces and if they were to find out that the vampire king was at the scene, then this place would turn into a battlefield, because in any case, the humans wouldn't let go of such a rare opportunity.

They had difficulty killing the current leader of the vampires because after the death of Liam's father, the elders had forbidden their new king from leading any battle and locked him in the palace for his own safety.

However, for now, Liam insisted on seeing Mila before picking her up himself.

"Step back," Liam said as he pulled Andreas back and walked closer to Mila, who was beginning to lose her rationale while letting her wild instincts take control. "It will not be long."

"But…" Andreas was about to protest, yet Liam had already issued another order.

"I will kill anyone who touches her," Liam said in a low voice, but enough for the vampires near to hear him clearly.

So, after hearing the warning, all the vampires surrounding Mila, took three steps back, away from the blood stained queen to be.

On the other hand, Liam walked with determined steps to approach Mila, he knew what would happen next and he was ready to subdue her.

And as it turned out, just as he had expected, Mila began to growl angrily when Liam continued to approach her regardless of the strong killing intent that was radiating off her body. It was a threat, and an ordinary vampire, who did that in front of the king, was sure to die tragically.

But, that was not the case with Mila. She was no ordinary vampire and Liam wouldn't kill the woman that was destined for him.

Once again, Mila's low, dangerous growling voice could be heard, her misty color eyes now turning red. Her claws and fangs were as sharp as a set of freshly sharpened knives, threatening the man who constantly ignored the warning.

And when Liam was just a couple of pitiful feet away from her, too close to make her instinct to survive turn into an instinct to attack, Mila slashed her claws at him very quickly, at a speed that was hard for the ordinary human eye to follow.

And now Mila was even further on her wild side than when she saw Ellen kiss Aaric, when the man was still in Dr. Drake's body.

However, Mila's speed was still not comparable to Liam's, because the king managed to grab her wrist firmly before they could even touch a single hair on his body while his other hand wrapped around Mila's neck tightly, making the vampire feel uncomfortable and even angrier.

Mila tried to make Liam loosen his grip around her neck with her left hand because her right hand was still held tightly by Liam, but no matter how hard she tried, Liam didn't loosen his grip at all.

He was so strong that even his skin felt like thick steel that was hard to penetrate, because no matter how hard Mila tried to claw at him, Liam didn't respond to it.

Whatever wounds she had managed to inflict on his hand would also heal in just a couple of seconds.

But, because Liam strangled Mila and he lifted her body until the girl lost her footing, made things harder for her to fight now. The pressure around her neck became stronger gradually and numbed Mila's whole body within a few seconds.

This effect was almost the same as when Mila was given an anesthetic and was forced to fall into a deep slumber, because a moment later, Mila felt consciousness begin to leave her. Her claws and fangs started to draw back again.

"Rest."

That was the last thing Mila heard, as she closed her eyes and darkness enveloped her, but before that something else happened to Mila.

As soon as her eyes were closed, from behind the darkness, all the memories and recollections that she had been trying to recall reappeared again and again, like a broken dam and now the memories flooded her mind.

Mila remembered everything. She remembered the reason why she ended up with Aaric and also the reason why she ran away from the palace.

And the main reason why she could end up being the replacement bride of her sister who had been killed in a war with humans.

No. Her sister was not killed in the war…

This man, the king, Liam Dageus was the one who killed her sister. Mila watched it with her own eyes.

When her sister's lifeless body fell to the floor and the cold gaze of her sister who found Mila, who was snooping behind the door, making her the sole witness of the incident.

No. Inside the room, it was not just the king, but also his bodyguard. Andreas.
