Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Bella tried to struggle with the chains in her hands but it did not budge even a bit. The more she tried to pull them, her hands cut and blood started to come out of her body.

She had no idea on the working of spells since no one ever taught her. But she knew that if she concentrated enough, she would be able to break these chains like she had done when her mother had chained her.

Then she would run away. That way she would be able to start a new life. With that thought, she increased the force. She placed all her force in tugging the chains when she heard the sound of footsteps.

The panic in her eyes rose. She didn’t want to serve her blood to anyone. She did not want to be the slave of anyone. She must run! She had to!

She pulled the chains further when the door of the room opened, Rafael stood there with a warm smile on his face as if he was a friend that he came to meet after a long time.

With the same arc on his handsome face that looked more tempting under the soft glow of moonlight, he walked to her.

“You know the biggest enemy of a person is not the world but his family and friends whom he trusted most.” he said as if he was talking casually when he walked toward her.

She glared at him as if telling him that she had no interest in his nonsense, so he could shut his mouth but the man only chuckled and touched her face.

She winced and took a step back as if she was trying to avoid his touch but it did not anger him at all.

It was a game to him. A chase, he will enjoy it. The girl was strong hearted. She had her own will that he had never seen ever in the slaves.

She intrigued him, she gained his attention the most. And he wanted to play. He was in no hurry to gain her, to own her or to claim her.

She was a dish he was going to enjoy slowly. She would be the fine that was best served cold.

“The chains you are wearing, they are not only made by a witch to stop witches from performing spells or magic but.. It has your own blood so that it could be infused with you.” he said with an amused look on his face but his words were enough to freeze her at her place.

“I think your family has sold you for some meager gold coins. So, even if you try to stir it, it would be useless. You have nowhere to go but to stay with me.” and Bella was sure that she was never going to accept it.

His words only forced her to put more force on the task. She was sure that even if she would not use the power of witches, the power as a human would be enough to break the chains slowly.

His eyes flickered under the light of the candle that was on the bedside table when he saw her not giving up but struggling with more zeal.

As if she had decided that she would not give up until she would be free.

“Stop that!” his eyes narrowed and turned darker as he held her hands forcefully.

She snarled at him as if telling that she was not going to stop just because he said so but when her eyes met his, she felt the look of authority. A face that did not expect obedience but deserved it.

She lowered her head as she felt the aura was too much for her to bear. She was still young and did not have that much bearing capacity.

His eyes softened when he realized that she was not struggling anymore.

“Your hands are swollen and blood is coming out.” his voice was a bit helpless as if a mother was dealing with a rebellious kid. “Must you be too harsh on yourself? You are just a kid!” he said as he patted her hair again.

She looked at him with a dumbfounded expression. She was not a kid but she was 25 years old. Old enough to have her own family while the man in front of her looked the same age as her. He might be a year old but should have called her a kid then.

Tsk tsk! What an old man.

As if reading her thoughts, the man smiled “i will be around a hundred years this month.”

“…….”  the man chuckled when he looked at her shocked face. She even forgot to struggle with the shock in her eyes.

She looked more adorable that way. Her face still has that innocence that was hard to find these days.

He could not take his eyes away from her face at all. Now that he could see her face clearly, she was an enchantress with that beauty and bewitching looks.

No wonder so many wanted to buy her! He felt a sense of pride that his girl belonged to him.

He touched her hands again and soon they started to heal.

“I think the chains are holding back your ability to heal too. That would be troublesome if you get injured while wearing these chains.” he said in a soft tone.

It felt something. Bella should have jerked away but his touch was so soft that it felt surreal. She instinctively learned to his touch that did not go unnoticed by the vampire who smiled and caressed her hair like she was his pet but this time the girl did not bared her teeth or snarled at him.

“Why don’t we make a deal? If you stop struggling and live here as my pet then I will help you understand what you are and even train you as a witch?” he asked in the same soft and luring tone, “but then you have to be my pet witch when you learn using your powers later.”
