|| RECOMMENDED SONG: Devilish By Chase Atlantic ||
The audience stood up in horror when the owner of that Inn was left with two sliced head. The knife perfectly cut off his head into two proportions and rolled on the ground like a stuff. Their faces turned deathly pale as if their drunken state had long been faded away.
Who could remain calm after witnessing such bloody scene?
One of them looked up at Cedric in horror before pursuing his lips together hesitantly as if he had to say something. As his eyes met Cedric's one deathly look, he retracted the idea of spouting a single word.
Cedric watched the audience in amusement before stating casually as if he had done nothing wrong,
" Gentlemen, you guys have to say something?"
The ear piercing sound of that Inn owner travelled outside of the inn. Frenchies who was guarding with others sensed something wrong and immediately ran inside with his troops. Their track halted abruptly when he saw a headless body was rolling on the floor.
The audience finally came to an understanding. They saw the uniformed guards in terror before looking up at Cedric doubtfully. Their doubt vanished away when Frenchies made a slight bow to Cedric before addressing him respectively,
" My Lord, we should get going now. Morning sun will be up anytime soon."
There was a gasp among the audience finally. Followed by an old man, they all bowed their heads longingly and the man in lead spoke nervously on their behalf,
" Your highness! Pardon our impudence! We didn't recognize you."
Cedric chuckled lightly at their words and waved his hands dismissively. Yawning leisurely, he spoke before turning around to face Jessie,
" No need to be courteous! I just came to find my sister. You guys better enjoy yourself. We are leaving."
Cedric spoke before reaching for the ropes to untie Jessie who looked utterly mad. Releasing out from the ropes, Jessie grumbled unhappily at Cedric,
" You should have given him to me. He was my prey."
Cedric sighed softly before reasoning patiently,
" You don't need to be so angry! The consequences would have always remained the same."
Jessie huffed before taking her pace out of the inn bossily. The guards bowed at her when she crossed them and hurried her pace outside.
The onlookers turned more pale in fear when they realized that they actually abducted their Princess who was in normal clothes. To hide their identities, they always imposed as a servant whenever they paid a visit outside.
Cedric followed her outside with his troops and soldiers soon after. Watching her leaving in a nonchalant face, Cedric commented from her back,
" You should control your temper when you are in public."
Jessie paused between her walks to carriage and spun around furiously. Gritting her teeth together, she replied at him barkingly,
" Do not order me, Cedric. I don't like it."
Cedric had always been patience with his sisters. He sighed heavily before stating in a matter of fact,
" I am ordering you as your brother, not the king of Basarisk. You are inviting more and more troubles for you."
Jessie chuckled at his response mockingly before stating sarcastically,
" Just the way you brought trouble in our palace."
Cedric's gaze narrowed darkly at her command. Surely she was referring to Ayra who just entered in their palace tonight. He persued his lips tightly not holding back his words anymore,
" She is the queen of Basarisk not your brother or sister, Jessie. Get the fact right inside your head. Don't make it difficult for me! "
Jessie gritted her teeth harder and turned around to leave angrily. She was more angered knowing that Cedric was supporting his wife in every possible way.
Why did he had to marry such a bad reputated woman?
Meanwhile, Ayra stayed in her room obediently. Though she was glad that Cedric was nowhere around, she started to feel worry for the matters. He looked horrible when he left the room.
Going back to the bed, she tried to get some sleep but new place made it difficult for her to sleep properly. She tossled few times on the bed but sleep was nowhere to be seen.
At that time, the door was pushed open from outside and a strong smell of blood filled her nostrils. As a part Vampire, she had deep sense of smelling than other normal creatures. Her stomach grumbled instinctively as she sat up on bed.
Cedric paused on the door way under her skeptical eyes and tried to slip inside without being notified. Ayra shouted narrowing her gaze at him,
" Take off your clothes before stepping in. You smell so bad that I feel like puking."
Cedric was astounded before double checking on his words disbelievingly,
" Excuse me? You..you asked me to step out?"
Ayra nodded before coming down from the bed and walked over to him,
" Yes! Your clothes are smelling like blood. Please take them off before you come in."
Cedric formed into a self mocking smile and glared looking down at her,
" Princess.. You are asking the king to get out of his own room? You sure have guts, I must admit."
Ayra snorted out coldly before returning his gaze with another piercing look,
" Why are you so damn proud of yourself? It's not like you are getting lectured by an outsider. I am the Princess of Dalastia first, second your wife and third the lawfully queen of Basarisk now. So you should take it lightly."
Cedric gritted his teeth harder before muttering incoherently,
" You..."
Ayra challenged back folding her arms together,
" What?"
Cedric sighed helplessly before coming up with another cunning idea. He obediently took a step back and offered with a grin,
" Since it's our wedding night, you should take some responsibilities too. Come to me and take off my clothes."
Ayra's face paled as she opened her mouth to refuse,
" Wait no.. Why me..."
Cedric reasoned raising her eyebrows amusingly,
" You just said that you are wife? Now come to me wifey.."
Ayra's face sank further. Never in her imagination,she expected that she would fall down in her own trap such miserably.
