《Loved By A Vampire King》Chapter 21 - Freedom
Advertisement
He sounded so calm and casual as if he was used to say this kind of sweet words.His long slender fingers still played with her messy hairs playfully with an attentive gaze.
Esme watched his stern face for a few times before broke out into a hoarse and anger mixed voice,
" But I want nothing from you except my freedom. You have status, assets probably more than everyone in your world. You can just give a command and thousand of beauties will be sent at your feet, king Aaron. But just let me go and live my life."
Aaron paused at his action before taking back his hand reluctantly and suddenly got up . His action gave her a bit frightened as she bit her lower lip tightly and lowered her gaze.
He thought for a while. Then suddenly his mind came up with an idea and turned back to face her timid face speaking slowly,
" Fine!"
Next second, Esme jolted in astonishment and lifted up her gaze excitedly.
But the next moment, she was rendered speechless as Aaron continued,
" From tomorrow, you can roam around my world and go wherever you wish along with my guards. No one will stop you except my order.You can visit around the city and have fun everyday. But you must come back to the castle before evening."
Esme badly wanted to roll her eyes but stopped at the thought of positive sides of this order.
If she can go around, she will definitely find a way to leave this world or perhaps she can send a letter to her second brother.
Watching her in daze, Aaron spoke raising his sword shaped eyebrows,
" Aren't you happy about my order?"
Esme came back to her sense before looking up and met his emotionless eyes,

" Yes, yes.I..I'm happy."
She went back to her thoughts and thought that it was best to not anger his mood again.
A cold voice again echoed in her ear,
" Sleep."
Esme was stunned, " huuuh?"
She blinked in confusion and stared at his eyes.
Don't tell me now that she has to compensate herself with her body because of those so called freedom that he had given?
Aaron gave a light chuckle before slowly approaching towards her. Esme sat in alert and immediately leaned back muttering with her widened eyes,
" What... what are.. you...doing?"
With a faint smile, Aaron hold her shoulders and pressed her down on the bed forcefully.Then he tugged the blanket over her limp body before speaking softly,
" Sleep.. I have some urgent matters to handle.Good night."
Before she could say anything, he gave her a light peck on her forehead and vanished from there in a second.
Esme laid down on the bed perplexed watching at the door.
Day by day, it was getting difficult to understand Aaron!
After teasing the little girl for a while, Aaron was passing through the corridor towards his study with a pleasant mood. Halfway, suddenly his pupils shrunk and with a strong force, he banged inside a certain room trembling the whole castle.
Even the guards quickly followed him inside the room.
HUMAN WORLD,
CRYSTAL CITY,
after walking for a few minutes with this stranger, Athena finally reached with Ethan in a quite place away from the city. It was in front of a half darkened lake side with above millions star glittering from the luminous sky.
As soon as they arrived, she could no longer wait for his permission and started ripping her blood packs hastily.

When it pried open a little, she stuff into her mouth like a juice pack and started gulping down while Ethan watched her disdainfully.
It took only one minute to finish the pack and was proceeding towards the next pack.
Ethan finally spoke with some disdain in his eyes,
" Hold on, nobody is going snatch your blood. Why are you in rush?"
With the blood stains on her lips, Athena glared at him before spouting angrily,
" What is your problem if I am in rush?"
Ethan shrugged, " Whatever..."
It was no gain to teach an animal how to behave !
After finishing two packs, Athena wiped her lips with her palm satisfied and concentrated on speaking first.
Her anger subsidised a lot after questing her thirst and asked,
" Umm... why do you roam here in human world?"
Ethan sighed softly and looked away falling his gaze on those dim lights of the city.
He was really exhausted after searching for Esme all the while. Even the police didn't find any clue of her after she entered the bar that night. The bar was highly restricted and there wasn't any cctv footage left on the day of her disappearing.
It was like she was vanished in the air.
Turning away his face, he saw her questioned gaze and somehow wanted to share his problem with her even though she was terrible.
He replied shifting away his gaze from her,
" My sister has gone missing. I have been searching for her."
Athena was shocked for a minute before asking another question,
" Wait.. you said, you're some holly creature.
Then what is your sister doing here in human world?
Aahh..I'm not getting you guys.."
Ethan shot her a hateful look and added,
" Forget it, if you don't want to hear.."

A cataclysm occurred in the world, which rolled back its development for many centuries. The power in it returned to the church, because otherwise, as the "2nd coming", the event that destroyed the earth, cannot be called. A big war is brewing, humanity has already mastered all places suitable for life, and the rulers are trying to expand their possessions at the expense of others. Our hero, Marzio, lives in one of the free Italian towns. He is the bastard of a major feudal lord who made his name in the war. His mother, despite her righteous lifestyle, practices quackery. For which one day, on an unremarkable and ordinary day, she is sentenced to death. Seeing the burning of his own mother and losing faith in people, Marzio begins his journey. Thanks to the connections of his small family, he escapes from the city and, together with a trade caravan, moves to another city, where he plans to enter the academy and become stronger. Along the way, he contacts people who call themselves "diggers" - plunderers. So, he finds himself in the ruins of the old world, which was much more developed and finds more and more evidence of the terrible secret of the true cause of the fall of the world, which the church so zealously hides. But the second coming gave not only the suffering and wrath of God, but also monsters from mutated animals. In a fight with them, he falls into the eyes of the detachment of the sacred order, after which they, having estimated its potential, take it to themselves and, with their patronage, he enters the academy. At the academy, he meets new friends, and his origin is revealed there. Since he is the only male descendant, he can claim the title and possession of his father. Thanks to this, our hero receives a certain amount of attention from the opposite sex.

As cover, his order sided with minor rulers to fight the old-fashioned way and maintain the balance of power.

The Core And The Wardens of Eternity
What is the Core, they asked me... It's the light that pushes the darkness away, a bastion of justice, a safe keeper of life. It grooms love and tolerance, embraces science, fights ignorance, sentences it to die a slow and tragic death. The Core... it's something that can't be destroyed for destroying it is to terminate the time and space itself. When the stuck-in-a-dark-age world of Zanria goes offline, the Core sends one of its experienced agents to find out what is going on and to try to reestablish a mysteriously severed connection. However, all his training and experience might come way short as the world sinks in war and chaos with different races and clans fighting for the Star of Bardan, the ward rumored to possess enough supernatural power to create and destroy entire worlds. *** I just changed the name of the series, from 'the Nexus' to 'the Core'. Somehow it just sounds more right to me. This is the first story, and it has a medieval fantasy setting. But, eventually, this is going to turn into Isekai series with elements of LitRPG. So, my future books might include worlds with advanced technologies that might be more in SciFi, including Steampunk, genre. The first book might start slow, but after a few chapters, it should all be properly set up, and by then you should get the feel of how it will all flow. Also, I plan to introduce different story threats that should spread out and criss-cross in the future. Hopefully, I will not complicate it too much, and that it will all read good. I am planning to continue to add chapters to the main storyline here, but I'm also starting a new story threat in the Core series called The Recordings of Raan. There is also a side story The Memoires of Eisen that's exclusive on Patreon for those who would like to support me.
