Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

She howled as she cursed at his fellow fighters who frowned and looked at the shouting witch with an ugly look.

Could she not see that they were having a hard time saving themselves?

“Why dont you cast a few spells first so that we will be able to attack them!” shouted another man who was helping his subordinate to get rid of the fire while attacking them with their sword.

But the biggest disadvantage of the sword was, it was only good for close combat but he was not even able to reach closer to them.

Others are no better. They were trying hard but the witches were strong enough to cast the spell and shoot at the same time.

“Stop them! Will you?” shouted the men to other witches who moved their hands but before they could cast the spell, Hazel sewed their lips.

“Tsk! I thought it would be more interesting!” said Hazel as she clicked her tongue out when she felt all of them were looking beaten.

The witches have their mouths sewn just like her mother while their weapons that could have been strongest fell on the ground because the person holding them was not strong enough.

“Anne went and collected their weapons first.” said Hazel but before Anne could not and collected the knights Rafael had brought.

“We will take the charge from here, you.. My lady.” he corrected his greetings when he faced the sharp eyes of hazel who looked ferocious yet bewitching like a beast that had the power to invoke temptation and then kill.

Hazel nodded and moved in with Anne while the knights took the weapons and dragged the half dead men and witched with them.

“That was easier than I thought!” said Anne as she walked in but did not find any other guard even when they had started unlocking the doors of the cell,

Hazel looked around too. The place was too silent to her liking. Yesterday, was same but there was an ominous feeling right now that was clawing her heart.

“Hey, you can go out and run to your family. You are free now.” shouted Anne as she had already opened more than six cells but not a single person was coming out.

Hazel, who was on the guard and making sure that Anne did not face any disturbance while saving the person as she wanted, tilted her head.

The faces of the women in the cell were soulless. They did not look like they wanted to get saved.

“Did you not hear me? I can take you to your family or to a safe place if you do not have a family.” she shouted again but the women under the cells only looked at her as if the words of Anne were not falling into her ears.

“They have been trained!” said Hazel in a soft voice as she felt the women do not have any hope left that keeps the person alive.

They looked more like living dead who are trained to follow orders like a thing or pet.

“All of you, come out this instant, your sellers are waiting for you!” she said in a vicious tone as she took out a small stick from the corner and hit the bars of their cell with it. “Do you want to get punished for your tardiness? Hmm?”

Anne flinched at the cold and sharp voice but surprisingly, the girls who were lying in like a dead being started to stand up and come out of their cells in a row as if they were trained to not break the line too.

Most of their clothes were torn, hardly covering their bodies that even as a woman, Anne took her eyes away.

The dried blood was proof of fresh and old wounds that had not only scarred their body but their souls that they did not come forward to save themselves but they came out easily when they were being sold.

Hazel felt the pain covering the eyes of her kind sister and tapped her shoulders with a sigh.

“We will heal them.” she promised and finally Anne nodded and used the spell but Hazel stopped her.

Anne looked at Hazel with bewilderment, who let the girls go with the knights that had come to follow them when they were done with arresting the guards.

“It is not the time yet, we need our powers to save all of them first.” Anne wanted to tell them that they did not need much power since the building was already desolated but when she noticed the look of wariness in the eyes of her sisters, she nodded back and took her hands away.

“Take all of them to the physician for healing instead of prison!” She commanded the knights who nodded their head.

They used to look at her weak figure with disdain and never took her orders when she was in the palace but now that they look at her taking the charge and fighting so strongly that could match their lord, they have started to look at her in a new light.

This time when he bowed his head, it was with respect not out of the boundation.

Anne continued to open the cell on the other side and shouted at the girls who did not wince or flinch when she hit the bar but stood up and came out as if it was a bell.

“Hey, you come out! We have to leave now or I will come in and beat you further.” she shouted at the cells when the women came out and followed the knights easily.

That was easy! Hazel looked at the 24 empty cells on the first floor and frowned.

“Are we going to the second floor now?” That was the place where the witches were kept that day.

Hazel nodded her head and followed Anne while all the knights left with the girls and a few men.

“The place is darker than that day!” murmured Anne as she lit a small candle picking it up from the holders on the walls.

“Oh my! Did we not follow the norms of a good host?”
