Loved By a Vampire King

After receiving all the instructions by the healer, Esme took every point in her head and urged Aaron to drink the medicine fast. Being threatened by his wife's death glare, Aaron obediently drunk the medicine before leaning against the edge of the bed.

After seeing off the healer, Jasper returned inside the room holding a curious expression as he waited for Esme's departure. Perhaps Esme understood that they were supposed to chat about something private, thus she thought of giving them some space making an excuse to go down and fetch some juices.

Aaron allowed still feeling worried about her dropped mood as he cursed Jasper trillion times inwardly. As soon as Esme's figure vanished over the door, Jasper spoke first somehow proudly,

" My Lord, how was my plan? Didn't it work too well?"

He let out a triumph chuckle and continued,

" Lady hasn't even doubted at healer's word at all."

Aaron watched him like a fool as he spoke gnashing his teeth,

" So it was you who gave this idea to the healer. "

Jasper nodded instantly puffing his chest and waited for some admires. But the next moment, Aaron cursed softly,

" Now I understand that why you haven't got a single girlfriend let alone wife all this years."

Jasper was astounded,

" What?? "

Aaron sneered and added again,

" You are going to transfer in S City from tomorrow."

Jasper broke out into cold sweat at the mention of S City which was the homeland of werewolves. He pleaded in a shaking tone,

" No, My Lord. What.. what have I done wrong, this time?"

Aaron was already in rage thus he roared,

" Get the hell out of eyes.."

Jasper still tried to speak,

" But..."

" Now !!", Aaron roared like an angry lion as Jasper almost flew away from there like a little puppy.

By the time, Esme returned back inside the room, Jasper was already long gone. She walked over to Aaron whose eyelids were becoming heavy as she suggest putting down the jar on the table,

" Why are you still awake? You need a sleep, didn't you hear that earlier?"

Aaron hummed before gazing at her blankly and mumbled,

" Wifey, I really didn't drink so much blood. It must be my.."

Esme waved her hand interrupting and suggested instead,

" Enough of this topic. You sleep first. We can talk about this later. "

Aaron sighed softly before lying down on the bed as she tugged the blanket over his body. Aaron chuckled watching her sweet gesture as he teased struggling to close his eyes,

" Esme, you are becoming my truthful wife finally. "

Esme's face sank as she stared at his face blankly and saw his eyes closing off.

She enhaled long deep breathe before getting up and stood at the window side.

No matter what I feel, I have to leave you for the sake of my daughter. She has no one in her life except me!

She turned her face towards Aaron who had already fallen in sleep and spoke out smiling bitterly,

" I'm sure, you will find your happiness after I'm gone."

HUMAN WORLD,

CRYSTAL CITY,

Ding! 

The city clock finally dinged loudly indicating the time of midnight had fell down. A certain boy wearing a blue shirt, ripped jeans were walking towards the lakeside absentmindedly. 

At the sound of the mechanical clock, he walked faster and quickly reached at the place. His curious eyes never forgot to search around for the girl that he was expecting to see so far.

Without seeing her presence, his mind filled up with disappointment as he shifted his eyes towards the lake's water blankly. The weather today seemed so calm without any sign of wind around as if they were also waiting for her presence. He sat down on the big stone and waited for her patiently as his eyes watched the neon lights over the lake blankly. 

When will you come, Athena? 

VAMPIRE WORLD, 

Esme spent standing at the window side all the while until the midnight fell down. After glancing at the clock, she watched the sleepy man on the bed staring at his alluring face for a few moments. Slowly after she came near him and laid down beside him. Her eyes saw the arrogant king's calm and soft face that had been sleeping in front. 

No matter how much others feared him, she understood that he had a soft corner for her that couldn't be denied by herself. 

After today's incident, she had started realising that she had fallen for him already. His unconditional love had already trapped herself here that she even had started feeling discomfort in her heart whenever thought of leaving his side. But.. 

She had to leave for the sake of her daughter as soon as possible or else she would fall so deeper that she wouldn't find a way to come out. 

On the contrary, Aaron was sleeping soundly diving into a dream or memory.. 

In his vague dream, he saw a young aged woman was running desperately holding a few months old child in her arms. Her face was blurr in his vision as she ran panting and panicking through a woodland. 

The environment around was dark indicating that was a night time as the moonlight came across through the leaves above falling upon on her running figure vividly. 

As the howls came nearby like a death ache, the woman ran more desperately ignoring the bunch of bushes that were digging inside her fair skin occasionally. Still she tried to save the child in her embrace like the last limb of her life as she continued rushing forward.

After running for a few minutes, she fell down on the cracked ground earning a loud cry from the baby in her arms. She sobbed and tried to coax him without turning back. But the baby was innocent as he continued crying louder without understanding the danger around.

Before she could run again, her back was hit by sharp paws as the child fell down from her arms jerking away few steps because of the severe pain. She stretched out her hand to take back the baby but it was snatched away instantly by a woman.

Her face turned horrified as she watched around fearfully. About nine big werewolves surrounded her completely and they all were looking down at her hungrily ready to smash her body into pieces anytime.

She looked up and saw a woman standing who wore a ripped black gown, curly black hairs falling down through her face like an insane girl was looking down at her horrified figure viciously. Her child was crying loud in her arms as she let out a sinister laugh loudly,

" What did you think, my cousin? You can escape from my palm after deceiving us, huh?"

The young woman cried out looking at the baby,

" Please Enchantress, leave my child.He is innocent. Do whatever you want to do with me but spare him, I beg you. Let go of him. "

Enchantress laughed viciously as her eyes turned bloodshot before speaking out teasingly,

" Of course, I will let go of him, cousin. You will die here without any doubt but I will make sure that you will regret for deceiving our clan even after your death."

The woman stuttered,

" What.. what do you.. mean by that?"

Enchantress grinned devilishly as she slowly brought the child near her lips. The young woman cried out loud attempting to snatch the child but she was hold by the werewolves forcefully,

" Don't.. don't do this Enchantress. Take my life. Let go of him. He is only a child now.. No.."

Despite being her continuous begging and pleading, Enchantress didn't show a bit of sympathy.The next moment, her sharp row of fangs digged inside the child's neck harshly as the mother and the baby both cried out loudly one was in pain and the other was in agony. 

After biting the baby's little neck, she threw the baby aside and ordered the wolves sneering, 

" Take her life and leave the baby here."

After that, only the screaming of the woman echoed throughout the whole woodland like a nightmare of every animals living thereby.At the last moment of her life, she vaguely saw the crying baby falling aside as she smiled bitterly enchanting something through her lips and left the last breath of her life enduring the sharp pains of cracked bones throughout her whole body.

Coming back to reality, Aaron was already covered in sweat as his breathing was rapid and abnormal.His whole body was jolting even Esme sensed it from her half-sleepy state. She opened up her eyes instantly and quickly reached out her hand to touch his body which was covered in sweat.

She quickly got up before rubbing his cheeks softly and tried to wake him up,

" Aaron.. Aaron.. Are you feeling sick, again? Aaron.."

After hearing her soothing tone, Aaron shot open his eyes gasping loudly. He breathed heavily before looking towards Esme who seemed worried. 

He called out whispering, 

" Esme..." 

Esme immediately responded patting his cheek, 

" Yes.. I'm here.. Are you feeling sick again?" 

Aaron shook his head lightly before demanding, 

" Hug me! I want to calm down myself." 

Esme was speechless for a moment but still obeyed him at the end. She leaned aside and hugged his head into her chest hesitantly. 

Exhaling a long sigh, he felt comfortable in her embrace and hugged her tightly. Her unique fragrance was soothing his messy heart beat gradually as he nuzzled his nose into her skin softly.
