Startled by her sudden appearence, Alexander was pushed away by Elizabeth harshly. The impact was hard enough to bring his sense back to reality. His inner bloodsucker howled impatiently for the sudden interruption and insisted on coming out.
Elizabeth first glanced at Alexander whose eyes were changing colors indicating that her presence had ignited his thirst. It was nearly dawn time which was the most craving time of a vampire. Elizabeth shrieked in fear hoping that he wouldn't act impulsively in front of her mother.
Awakened by her constant hints, Alexander regained his trueself and snapped his head aside at the woman who stood few steps away from them. His head instinctively made a slight bow before addressing the woman with respect,
" Mrs.Castillo."
Dora Castillo,mother of Elizabeth and wife of Chief minister from Dalastia's region approached them slowly. With her long floor touching loose gown, her step couldn't be seen but elegancy was evident in the air. Her eyes didn't show any emotions but there was a sign of dissapointment on her expression.
Alexander didn't dare to meet his eyes since he understood that what was he attempting to do just a few moments back. On the contrary, Elizabeth had the same fear lingering in her mind. She didn't expect her mother to appear in White Castle suddenly.
Dora came to stand between the two of them and looked up at her daughter blankly. Pursuing her lips together into a faint smile, she spoke as if she had seen nothing,
" Pardon my sudden interruption, Your Highness! I was looking for Elizabeth. I came to meet your aunt and your mother."
Alexander was somewhat baffled out by her words. He expected her to question on his actions at least but the woman had nothing to say. Elizabeth understood her mother rightly. She just didn't dare to make herself eyesore in front of Alexander who was the next king of Vampires. A prominent woman like her knew how to act wisely in sudden unexpected situations.
Alexander looked at Elizabeth with worry. Before excusing himself from there, he spoke few words to Dora respectively,
" We were just sharing comforted words upon Ayra's departure, Mrs Castillo. Please feel free to visit us oftenly."
Dora returned him a smile before giving a slight nod,
" Of course, Crown Prince."
Alexander walked out from there and dissapared behind the long walls.
Just as his silhouette dissapared, Dora's face changed color in no moment. Her earlier tender eyes furiously fell on Elizabeth whose head was bowing down longingly.
She scoffed between her gritted teeth,
" You shameless girl! Were you trying to seduce the Crown Prince? Aren't you afraid of inviting danger for our families? No wonder, you insisted on staying in White Castle."
Elizabeth sighed out softly. She knew that no matter what she said, Dora would push the blame on her at the end. She responded casually without looking through her eyes,
" Mother.. Your words are baseless. You know well that we are friends from childhood."
Mrs.Castillo continued scoffing annoyingly,
" You better start teaching your younger sister that how to get along with the Royals. Princess Ayra is already out of here. You shouldn't come here alone from now on. Take your sister whenever you visit."
Elizabeth pursued her lips with a forced smile,
" I..I understand.."
Dora narrowed her eyes at her slightly before turning around to leave instantly,
" Let's go back to our house. I have already met the two queens. You don't have any business here anymore."
Elizabeth could only obey after her stern order. If she denied, she knew the consequences very well. While leaving, she peered back one time, hoping to steal a glimpse of Alexander who was nowhere to be seen.
**********************
That night, Ayra had no more argument with the demon. As soon as her back found the warm bed, her body relaxed peacefully and she went into slumber sleep not long after that. On the contrary, Cedric didn't tease her anymore. He was exhausted after all this fights and slept beside her without bothering her anymore.
He smirked devilishly at her sleeping face one more time before drifting off to sleep. Sooner or later, his hands were going to be her pillow.
The morning sun prickled from the hazy sky of Basarisk. Basarisk had one interesting weather. Dark clouds always ran across the surface and threatened the creatures down there to rainfall. The sky was always gloomy without proper rays of sunlight. Some even dared to spout that Cedric was the reason behind such gloomy weather hence he was the beholder of dark magics.
Ayra opened her eyes groggily. The first thing that she went to check on was her clothes. She breathed in relief when they were placed on right place.
" Dissapointed that nothing happened between us?", Cedric's teasing voice came from the other side. Sitting straight up, she saw him walking out of the washroom. A towel was wrapped around his lower body. His bare chest was proudly glistening with little water droplets.
Ayra's cheeks burnt in shame. Though they didn't had sex, he still saw everything. She was so naive to believe in his tricky words.
Ayra shook her head denying and hauled up from the bed to go for the washroom,
" In your dreams! I...I was just wondering.."
Cedric chuckled at her response and clapped his hands together. As Ayra entered into the washroom, a maid came in to help him with clothes.
The maid was none other than the same girl who tried to bash Ayra last night!
The maid bowed at him longingly untill half of het bossoms were exposed in front of his view. Unfortunately, Cedric wasn't looking at her.
He was thinking about how to please this fiesty Princess today so that he could make her stay close while sleeping together.
The maid reached for his attire with a blush and reached behind him with a shy smile. She scoffed arrogantly inside her mind that their lady meant nothing to Lord since he asked for the maids to bring clothes for him even after getting married.
The maid couldn't help but ran her palm across his back greedily. At that moment, the door was knocked from other side coming out his butler's nervous voice,
" Your highness! Report! "
Cedric permitted not paying attention on the maid's movements at all,
" Come in, Butler."
The butler pushed open the door gently before bowing at him. After taking a deep sigh, he reported to Cedric nervously,
" Argh! My Lord! Your Uncle has requested you and Lady to join in Breakfast with them in BALVINA."
Cedric laughed softly tapping on his chin,
" How generous of them! How can I deny such warm hostility, butler? But I have suddenly an odd fantasy."
The butler immediately sensed something wrong and questioned uncomfortably,
" Umm.. What is it my Lord?"
Cedric smirked tilting his head aside amusingly,
" Call my dragons! I would like to reach in BALVINA with my babies."
