Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 277.2: Your Highness, Could It Be That Instead of My Daughter, You Want... Me? (2)

"I don't think so."

Although Rayne was shy, he still tried his best to muster his courage and risked his life to say seriously,

"I'm serious, Miss Sharley. If I have to choose between you and Tyrapotter… Miss Sharley, I want to choose you."

Rayne asked carefully with an awkward smile, "Miss Sharley, may I ask if it's… possible between you and me? Even if it's just the slightest, tiniest possibility?"

Sharley: "I-I…"

Sharley's mind went blank.

Initially, Sharley wanted to matchmake her daughter…

However, she did not expect to be courted by her darling son-in-law instead.

How should she answer this child…

It was not as though Sharley had never been confessed to before.

Or rather, it had happened way too many times.

However, no matter which suitor expressed their admiration to her in any way, Sharley had never felt as flustered as she was right now towards the sincere words of Rayne Haines.

The other party was the Prince of Haines and the future Emperor of the strongest Empire in the mortal world.

Sharley had to take his words seriously…

However, marriage and whatnot…

Ever since Sharley was born, she had never considered something like that.

She had no capabilities of giving birth, so she did not need a spouse.

Not to mention, she was also the Matriarch of the vampires.

Her husband would become the father of all the vampires. Who in the mortal world could bear the weight of this identity?

This silly child...

He merely... could not defend against the predatory bewitchment capabilities of True Ancestor 1.

As True Ancestor 1, the strongest vampire and the strongest human hunter, Sharley also possessed the highest level of bewitchment.

No matter how outstanding Rayne was, he was only a mortal after all. He would be bewitched and have desires…

It was like a prey that had bitten into bait and mistook danger and killing intent for a good thing.

This was the current Rayne.

It was reasonable for him to choose her.

However…

Sharley knew that she should not be Rayne's lover… definitely not.

Sharley averted her gaze. "Your Highness Rayne… are you serious?"

Rayne nodded solemnly. "I'm very serious, Miss Sharley. You probably don't know how deeply your presence has affected me. Ever since I saw you, you've been haunting me and I can't sleep at night… My soul is urging me to woo you at all times."

Boohoo...

Child, don't say such sweet nothings with that serious expression...

This was truly… way too tempting.

Sharley averted her gaze, unable to meet Rayne's sincere eyes.

She could only stammer, "P-Please don't say such things, Your Highness Rayne… I'm just a boring old woman. We're not suitable…"

Sharley said in a low voice, "When I was born, this mortal world… did not even exist…"

Sharley was way too old…

There was a huge gap between her and Rayne Haines. It was not beneficial for Rayne to fall in love with Sharley.

"It's fine, Miss Sharley. Actually, I know that you won't accept me…"

"You're the original True Ancestor. You have powerful strength and endless wisdom that can dominate the mortal world. You're so perfect that I'm not worthy of you at all. However, you still attracted all my attention and made me fall in love with you…"

Rayne smiled bitterly. "I just want to tell you how I feel—Miss Sharley, I like you. I hope that you can be my wife and be with me forever."

Sharley: "…"

Sharley looked at Rayne.

She stared into those affectionate eyes that were filled with regrets.

Sharley felt her lonely heartstrings tremble uncontrollably…

Rayne Haines, this cute child whom Sharley doted on, admired and relied on like a miracle…

He actually liked Sharley…

He wanted to court Sharley and even become her husband…

Husband, lover…

Those words were so unfamiliar to Sharley.

Sharley's status was special. She was the first person of her race and all her compatriots were her children in the broad sense.

There was no way she could fall in love with her descendants.

However, it was even more impossible for her to accept the proposal of someone from another race.

She could not do that!

She knew how much her daughter liked Rayne Haines.

How could she snatch a man from her daughter and marry her future son-in-law?

Sharley's heart could not help but tremble…

That was way too ridiculous.

Taboo…

This was a taboo relationship that should not have been born and existed.

Sharley had already made up her mind.

Sharley smiled. "Your Highness Rayne… I can't accept your request…"

Rayne nodded gently in acceptance.

His voice was extremely regretful but resolute. "Alright, Miss Sharley, I understand…"

Rayne respected Sharley's choice.

It seemed like this was the end of the topic…

However, for some reason, Rayne's decisiveness made Sharley a little disappointed.

She stared at Rayne. Finally, she could not help but say, "Finally, Your Highness Rayne… can you answer a question of mine?"

Sharley said, "I want to know why exactly you want to court me... Are there other feelings you possess for me other than desire..."

When Rayne heard that, he stood up silently and walked to Sharley.

"You're very beautiful, Miss Sharley. However, it would undoubtedly be blasphemy for me to court you and even propose to you just because of your beauty alone."

He stared at Sharley and said softly,

"It's just that you remind me of… my mother."

Sharley: "!!!"

Most of the time, that would have probably been the worst answer to give.

But now, Rayne's confession…

It pierced deep into Sharley's heart.

At that moment, the love for Rayne magnified infinitely in Sharley's heart until she was drowned and devoured!

So that was the case…

It was not only because of the bewitchment talent of the vampires that Rayne lost his judgment for a moment.

It was Sharley's soul that ignited the love in Rayne's heart.

Just as Sharley's heart was in a mess and she did not know how to reply…

Suddenly, Rayne grabbed Sharley's wrist.

He picked up Sharley roughly and pushed her against the wall.

Sharley did not resist.

Otherwise, given her strength as True Ancestor 1, there was no way Rayne could have moved Sharley at all.

Like a loving mother, she merely acquiesced to the child's prank on her and leaned against the wall according to the child's wishes.

Sharley was extremely surprised. She looked at Rayne in confusion, not knowing what he wanted to do.

"Miss Sharley… I can't control myself anymore…"

Rayne looked at Sharley affectionately and his voice trembled.

"Please kill me…"

Thereafter…

Rayne kissed Sharley.

Under Sharley's panicked gaze, this child who was thousands of years younger than her planted his lips on hers.

What kind of experience was it like to kiss someone?

It was clearly just the gentle contact of two pieces of flesh, but it had an extremely taboo and important meaning.

Kissing…

That was something that only lovers would do.

But now, Rayne kissed Sharley forcefully regardless of everything.

Sharley's heart skipped a beat and her mind went blank from excitement.

The fragrance on Rayne's body had already filled her nose.

That intoxicating sweetness…

She was infatuated and ecstatic…

Sharley knew…

She was a cheap woman.

She allowed her son-in-law to kiss her.

Sharley was now engaged in physical intimacy with this child who should have been dating her daughter to become her son-in-law.

Sharley closed her eyes in pain and was pressed against the wall by Rayne, begging continuously.

This cute child bit Sharley's lips and sniffed the fragrance on her neck, sizing up her body with a greedy gaze.

Rayne should have become Tyrapotter's husband.

But now… he rejected the marriage alliance because of Sharley.

Rayne did not choose the daughter.

Instead, he chose the mother.

Sharley hated herself…

She was a shameless and lewd mother.

She could have pushed Rayne away…

Rayne was too weak and would not have been able to resist her strength.

However, for some reason, Sharley pressed her trembling fingers against the wall and allowed Rayne… to do whatever he wanted to her.

She could not push away this child who was deeply in love with her…

However, that was precisely the reason why she hated herself…

She understood every single thought that she had in her mind.

She was not a weak mortal woman. She was a True Ancestor, the strongest True Ancestor.

Her lack of resistance meant that she had tacitly agreed to it. It was an invitation to seduce!

She... was seducing this child to do something wrong to her.

In fact...

Even wronger things to come.
