Their curious gazes followed the source of the voice and immediately their minds got an electric shock after having the view of the person waking in.
The man wore his usual black attire like a demon king and walked in lazily unleashing his domineering aura.His sharpened gaze fell on the crowd who were enjoying Esme's humiliation disdainfully.
The maids understood the silent warning and quickly retreated themselves from the family gathering.Only the lady guard remained unfazed and stood in a corner respectively with it's head down after seeing her lord.
Queen Mother was startled at his interference and shot him a surprised and unbelievable look.He took some slow steps towards their direction and finally reached near them glancing at his wife and mother.
Standing between them like an almighty god, he explained maintaining his voice very calm and usual,
" She hasn't violated any rule, mother. I gave her the permission to go out and roam around the capital city.She is after all the rightful Queen of our world and should head out to know her reign or else the citizens may be arised questions against her knowledge and status."
Even though it was the real truth, the word
" Queen " stabbed in Queen Mother's heart like a knife cutting the flesh.Her breathing quickened at the sudden gust of anger arousing from her heart suddenly and wanted to make her stop from stepping out and showing off her status.
Her clever brain quickly calculated an idea and she spoke along with a faint smile,
" I understand, son. But you know, it is very dangerous for her to go out alone."
She added purposely with some mockery in her tone,
" Especially being a human wanders around the vampire world isn't safe at all.Who knows that which vampire will attack her all of sudden to gratify his thirst! "
Aaron was a bit suspicious behind her words and gave her a questioning look.Queen Mother continued looking at Aaron smiling,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt" How about let Vanessa accompany her?She is familiar with all the nearby places here."
Her intention was simple but deep. When Aaron gave the order to let her go out, she couldn't go against him afraid of ruining her motherly image in front of him. Thus she could only muster up another plan astutely and it was her trump card Vanessa.
Moreover taking in consideration about everything, if Vanessa goes out with Esme, people will have definitely suspicion over her status. Naturally they will think of thousand possibilities about Vanessa staying in the castle.
Precisely it will lead to a new gossip and commotion judging two female's status and capabilities. Perhaps in the future, it will help her to get rid of Esme very smoothly and at the same time, Vanessa's position will rise up.
Aaron seemed unhappy at her suggestion and didn't utter any word for a while. Queen Mother stared at Aaron excited from the core of her mind and knew that his son would never throw out the offer.
Unexpectedly Esme talked standing close to Aaron and keeping her head high,
" I would prefer to wander alone, Queen Mother. Moreover the guards will stay with me and I assume that your highnesses guards are capable enough to give me the best security."
She kept her words casual and formal at the same time sensible. In reality, she really didn't want Vanessa to accompany her.
Jealousy?
Nope. She still didn't have any feelings towards Aaron so where the jealousy would come in her heart. She just wanted to spend some quality time on her own and especially she still needed to find out the way of travelling back to her world or perhaps sending a letter to her brother, Ethan.
But the certain man was quite happy hearing her protest.He gazed at her deeply as his lips formed into a pleasant smile.
He thought only one possibility that Esme was becoming jealous over Vanessa.So she forbade her accompany and definitely it was the best sign to improve their relationship.
Queen Mother appalled at her daring silhouette to reject her proposal and enlarged. She spoke up stammering at her words in anger,
" You.. who gave you the guts to turn down my order.."
An interruption occurred as Aaron spoke on her behalf,
" Mother, calm down. Let her roam around alone if she wants to.Vanessa can accompany her later in some other days.I have attributed Viviana as her personal bodyguard.
She will be around her all the while."
Surprise flashed on her eyes as she gazed at her son in disbelief. Just some simple words from Esme, he didn't even consider her suggestion and immediately agreed with Esme.
Is this the wayward Aaron that she knows?
Lowering down her gaze, she squeezed her own palms together tightly and replied,
" As you wish, my lord."
After saying that, she turned back and headed upstairs giving the impression of her dissatisfaction.
Esme stared at her back and felt complex in her mind. She understood from the very moment when she came here that this lady was holding some silent grudges against her and was ready to cause trouble for her anytime.
Soon she came back to her sense when she felt the cold silhouette near her body towering over her.
Lifting up her gaze, she found Aaron staring at her complicated face smiling cunningly. Immediately her body wanted to step back but the man was quick fast and grabbed her waist firmly not giving her the chance to escape from his palm.
His mischievous smile grew wider when he saw her flet expression after being held as he spoke,
" I gave you the freedom that you wished. Shouldn't I deserve a reward, Mrs Aaron?"
She looked at his devilish face in terror and immediately recalled the last reward that he had received from her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer throat dried as she spoke turning her face away and not giving him the opportunity to stole another kiss,
" What.. what reward? Obviously you gave the order first. I didn't ask for that."
Chuckling softly, he spoke leaning in closer as his hot breathe touched her delicate face,
" What? Afraid of giving me reward? You should know that even if you deny, I'm very professional of collecting my debt so well."
Their posture was so intimate as if they were about to engage in a kiss.Esme felt shame in her heart.Her gaze wandered around to see any people and found no one except Viviana, her personal bodyguard who was standing far away from them showing her back.
Indeed even the guards were devil as him silently giving them the privacy even though Aaron didn't order her.
Wandering her gaze here and there annoyingly, Esme started struggling on his embrace and spoke in a low voice,
" What.. what do you want this time?"
His mood lifted up at her words and a slight amusement glittered from those red eyes.Suddenly Esme felt the hot breathing in her right ear as his steamy words echoed,
" I will collect my reward at night. Now go and have fun, I will wait for your return."
Finishing his words, he released her from his cage and saw her another startled look.
Forcefully she flashed away his intimate words from her mind and headed outside directly while the man smirked at her flying back.
With her departure, Viviana also trailed behind her and suddenly received an order in a cold voice from her back,
" Take care of her Viviana. Don't let any harm come near her."
The light on his eyes dimmed as he added another line with a deep meaning,
" Remember that I need her to live my life.Stay close to her always."
Viviana nodded and left from there after giving a respective bow.
