Loved By a Vampire King

The impish grin on his face made her frantic as she bit down her lips hard to not spit out something brusque towards him. Moreover, Aaron was grinning gently yet there was a sharp expression of arrogance and impassivity concealed behind his dominant gaze.

Esme seemed like a caged bird who was desperately searching for her way to get free. Yet whenever she confronted the ferocious face of this man, she oddly felt frightened inside her soul.

The door was unlocked again and a robust man strolled inside the room carrying some medical stuff. By observing his well-trained sturdy physique and the black colour uniform, Esme surmised that he was a guard of this king.

The man's face reflected an extremely respectable manner as he handed over the stuff to Aaron and then took a step back before standing behind by crossing his arms.

When Aaron began taking out the medical kits, Esme seemed reluctant and spoke hurriedly,

" I.. I don't want any medicine. I.. I will be fine on my own. "

Aaron didn't bother to utter anything. He gave a cold glare at her and grabbed some cotton before stretching out his hands towards her wounded face.

Esme still responded towards his approach expressing her extreme disdain,

" I.. I really don't need it.. Please put it down. I will do it myself. "

Aaron simply retorted at her " Be good " and pressed the soft cotton on the corner of her lips in a delicate manner. He wiped off the bloodstain from her lips slowly and ably while frowning hard with a concern for her.

The guard behind him appeared calm from outside but he couldn't believe his own eyes when he saw that scenery in front of him.

Their lord, who was an extremely dreadful creature to the people in their world is now coaxing a fragile woman. Perhaps this was the biggest news of the day.

When he was almost done with his task, Aaron spoke unfalteringly,

" Be ready for tomorrow.

We will get married tomorrow. "

Esme jolted in her spot abruptly and stared at him with immense terror as if she just heard her death sentence. Before she could spit out anything, Aaron got up from the floor and began stepping towards the exit.

Holding back her venomous words, Esme spoke out loudly coercing him to halt at his spot,

" I don't want to marry you. Let me go back to my world. I have nothing to do with you.

What do you guys want from me?

Why are you guys after me?

What have I done??

Why me? "

She couldn't help but screamed from the core of her lungs venting out her bitter grievance.

His face darkened as he harshly shot a gaze towards her at the same time. This woman was indeed challenging his patience. Even the guard gasped hard in anxiety when he saw his Lord's expression and took permission to head out from the room first.

The guard couldn't dare to confront his anger anymore. He realized very well that after heading out, he was the first person who would be punished to let someone else hit this girl. After spending so many decades beside him, he learned quite well that for whom his lord cared for and for whom not.

As he left the room, Aaron turned back to confront this arrogant girl. Esme stepped back subconsciously when she noticed his feral gaze. She could detect his red eyes which already turned redder as if it was burning her invisibly.

In a blink of an eye, Aaron grabbed her body with the speed of light before pressing her against the hard wall.

Esme gasped in fright and tried to clutch the wall trembling in panic. With an intense gaze, those burning eyes were so close to her face that she could even sense his rapid breathings filled with anger.

His cold, tall figure was clasping her hard against the wall as she struggled to breathe properly. Momentarily she heard his hoarse voice beside her ear,

" I have shown you enough patience. I warned you earlier that I don't like to hear no.

Moreover, do you really think that you can escape from here? Never !!! Without my permission, even a bird don't dare to fly here in the sky.

Who will take you out from my territory?

Be good and get married to me tomorrow. Or else.. "

Esme blinked fearfully and lifted her gaze slightly to guess his unspoken words.

He grinned lightly before whispering beside her ear,

" I wouldn't mind giving your parent's corpses to you as a wedding gift."

When his words left from his mouth, Esme trembled violently before lowering her gaze and strived to hold back her tears. She shut her eyes as many delightful memories flashed back in her vision.

Her parents have loved her and cared for her intensely even though she was not their biological daughter. She couldn't shove their lives in danger in any circumstance.

As for her own life, her sole hope was his second brother who would definitely try to locate her soon.

She was still clasped by Aaron. She could feel that his stiff glare was scanning every bit of her expression. After struggling hard inside her mind, she opened her eyes slowly and gently hence responded lowering her head,

" I.. I agree. "

A sinister smirk formed on his lips as he pecked over her swollen cheek very casually before responded shortly,

" Satisfied. "

Esme tried to turn her head disdainfully. If it wasn't the matter of her parents, she wouldn't ever concur to his proposal even if she was on the brink of death.

A marriage without love has no meaning. She was a firm believer in this phrase thus always dreamed of having a beautiful happy family. But her cruel destiny played hard with her and eventually made her lose everything.

After throwing a glance at her onerous face, Aaron turned back to head outside as he was enough satisfied with her fast answer.

He will never hear "no" in his life.

As the door closed, her suffocated scream finally made her broke down in tears as she sat down on the gelid floor weeping silently.

She looked outside of the broken window as her heart was packed with bitter feelings. The gloomy room was no longer tenebrous as the moonbeam coming through the window lighting up this small room, in other word ''prison".

She was abandoned by her own family, her own world. When she finally found a haven filled with love, it was again snatched from her by her cruel destiny.

What is the reason that exists for her living??
