Chapter 265: 266 Returning?

Chapter 266 Returning?　　"You seriously tried to do something like that?!"

"That was before I met you or Mister Dick."

"But how could you even do something like that? And how did you not recognize me? I may not remember anything, but you knew everything. And you still—"

"You were far away, and I didn't see your face. I was seeing your soul and simply made an assumption. I didn't know it was you."

Rudy still couldn't believe Jane would do something like that, even to a stranger. Sure, scaring them away was an option, but punishing them in such a way was a horrendous act.

Rudy then recalled the strange sensation he had felt when he was about to penetrate Angelica's cave, where he also felt like someone was watching them.

Not to mention, it scared Angelica, who was the ghost, so they had to go back home.

"After you suddenly disappeared from the forest, I stood on the spot where you were trying to do… that. I smelled the scent, and it reminded me of you, but of course, I wasn't sure it was you. I have never smelled a human before, so I used to think all humans smell the same. But, after you mentioned the ghost living inside you, I thought maybe that was you."

"Okay, that makes more sense as to why you didn't know it was me. But that changes nothing. What if your spell had worked? You would have killed Mister Dick even before you met it, you know?"

Rudy's doubts had cleared, and he wasn't angry anymore. Jane didn't do it on purpose, and she didn't know it was Rudy. But her punishment still wasn't justified.

"But it didn't work. And besides, it would have been your fault, to begin with. Why would you even come to a forest to do that? And that too in the middle of the night," she said nonchalantly, seemingly not regretting or feeling sorry for what she had done.

"You know, it's really amazing that we are actually in love with each other despite having a former enemy-like relationship," Rudy muttered.

"Because we both wanted the same thing, and we worked hard for it. And you know…" Jane placed her head on Rudy's shoulder and calmly said: "I think it's because I hated you that I fell in love with you."

"Hmm?"

"My hate for you turned into love. For some reason, I can't hate you. Maybe because you gave me what I needed? Love."

"..."

"Of course, it's not like I wasn't loved before. Grandma Nyxia, Grandpa Virgil, and Rias love me, but they are a family. I have friends too who love me. Really…"

Jane smiled distantly and said, "My friends were the best. When everyone criticized me for being a dhampir and a cursed child of the blue moon, they befriended me. I had the same haughty attitude at that time too, but they still stayed with me. Thanks to them, I was happy."

"....?" Rudy played with Jane's hair and asked, "Why are you referring to them in the past tense? Are they not your friends anymore? Or perhaps, they passed away?"

"No, they are still alive. But I haven't seen them in over ten years. They are the knights of this kingdom, so they are busy dealing with the issues," she replied calmly.

"But you should still be able to meet them, right?"

"No, I don't know what post they are serving, and mind you, this kingdom is vast. The city you are seeing is just a small portion of it, and this palace is not the real palace. The true royal place is not beautiful like this one is. It's scary."

"Nyxia lives there?" Rudy asked curiously.

Jane nodded and said, "She kicked everyone out of the palace and sent them here. Although that happened 2000 years ago after her husband died."

"How did her husband die?"

"He was murdered, or so I have heard. No one knows the real cause of his death. But Grandma was devastated. She also tried many forbidden rituals to revive him, and the legend says that she was able to reincarnate him."

"Reincarnate? As in dying and being reborn? That's some straight-up scary shit. I do not doubt the legend, but for Nyxia to do something like that…"

Rudy recalled how Nyxia had described her powers and how she talked about legend and myths.

'If she was truly successful in doing something like that, why was she flirting with me? When she mentioned her husband, I could feel the love, sadness, and loneliness in her voice.

Without a doubt, she loved him dearly. She also said that the only man she had been with was her husband. So she wouldn't make moves on someone else, unless…'

'No, no, no.' Rudy shook his head. 'You are thinking too much, Rudy. You are a human, and your mother is Rebecca.'

"Well, her love story is not something one would admire. But her husband was probably commendable since he managed to melt the Mad Queen."

"True…"

Jane squinted her eyes at Rudy and uttered, "And you did too."

"I didn't."

"Hmph! If I catch you cheating on me with any other vampire except Rias, you better be prepared to face my wrath," she said with a proud and confident look on her face.

"What would you do? Kill me?" Rudy scoffed jokingly.

"No. But I will…" Jane whispered something in Rudy's ears.

"Wow… calling you a yandere would be an understatement now…" Rudy muttered.

After relaxing in the pool for a few more minutes, they got out and washed each other's bodies.

Rudy's plan was to finger Jane while washing her body and stop before she orgasmed to make her desperate. However, Jane had already seen through him and didn't let him wash her.

But Jane gave him a handjob to Rudy, so he was satisfied for now. Still, he wanted Jane to lose her challenge as he didn't want to stay a virgin for 24 hours. It was an impossible task for him, and his super libido wasn't going to like that.

After taking a bath, they both made their way to Jane's room, which was cleaned perfectly by Niti.
