The rain continued heavily as if the god had ravished his all blessings open handedly for the people in the world. The flowers were all drenched vividly occasionally dancing against the random wind passing through them.

Aaron was seat at the wooden chair watching the raindrops blankly and waited for Esme to come out. He started thinking that why was she taking so long.

Just then he thought paying a visit inside, the door was pushed open with a creak as he turned his head on the way.

Esme didn't change her dress. She casually wiped off her half drenched hairs and took a little much time to stable her mood. Her expression was unreadable as if reading her expression was the most difficult obstacle that one could ever had. Perhaps women were born to hide their inner feelings perfectly.

Watching her appearance, Aaron asked tugging a soft smile and gestured him to come over there,

" Come here! I was going to check on you. Why did you take so long?"

Esme could only smile back gently before making her way towards his spot. As she came nearer, he gently pulled her and pushed her down on his lap.

Esme didn't feel surprise this time as she had become accustomed to her husband's behaviour. Aaron felt warmth holding her in his embrace and spoke watching the rain outside,

" It's beautiful, isn't it?"

Esme frowned before drawing her attention to the rainfall outside. Her lips gave off a soft smile as it saw how much the flowers were enjoying the rain. She replied looking at the way blankly,

" Yeah, it's indeed beautiful."

But the man was born as an overbearing person. He asked hinting a dissatisfaction in his tone,

" Is it beautiful than me?"

Esme frowned before giving him a cold glare.

Come one, can he be less narcissistic each time?

Aaron remained unfazed and asked raising up his arched eyebrows,

" What? You.. you really think that it's more beautiful than me?"

Esme also continued to play around with him as she admitted stubbornly,

" Yes, it is.. So what?"

She blinked and watched his puff expression as she hold back the laughter hardly. But the very next moment, she was pressed against the chair whereas Aaron leaned over her face.

The action was too fast that she couldn't even get the time to realise that what just happened.

Aaron looked at her astounded eyes and spoke letting out a chuckle,

" You still get so afraid of my action? How are you going to bear everything all your lifetime?"

Esme's mind went blank.

Lifetime?

It's still so far away from now!

Aaron leaned beside her ear before asking seductively,

" Can you bear the punishment of angering a vampire King, Esme? "

Esme shifted uncomfortably as she got the meaning behind his blatant words. She sutured trying short their distance,

" You.. Don't spout nonsense.. The guards might see us."

Aaron frowned before glancing back at a far way where their carriage had parked. He turned back and replied with authority,

" Nobody dares to lay their eyes over our private time."

Esme felt her cheeks burning at his shameless thoughts. She came up with another excuse watching the food on a table aside,

" I'm hungry."

Aaron blink innocently and replied,

" Yeah, me too."

Esme frowned slightly and replied,

" Then.. Let's eat.. "

Aaron's gaze darkened as he demanded shamelessly,

" But I want to eat you."

Esme "...."

Before she could realise, his face was leaning forward to capture her lips. She quickly blocked it by her palms before speaking shyly,

" Not here. The guards might spot us anytime. I don't wanna feel embarrassed because of you."

Aaron also replied like a stubborn child before carrying her up,

" Ok, then let's head inside the room. My mother would be very happy if we leave some precious memories of us here."

What precious memory? I would have died in shame if she was alive!

Esme blushed profusely as he took her inside carrying up in his arms.

In no time, Esme discovered herself over a small cracking bed letting out naughty sounds because of their movements. Capturing her lips hungrily, he pushed her down one the bed gently. Cold hands travelled to lift up her long gown as she felt a wave of cold wind brushing against her exposed knees. His kiss turned hungry as he continued showing off his skill constantly.

Esme whimpered as the cold hands squeezed her assets of upper chest hardly. Swinging in pleasure, she complained between his fiery kisses,

" What.. what are you doing?"

He smacked on the corner of her lips and replied with a huff,

" Proving myself that I'm more beautiful than rain."

Esme was speechless. She just made a one single joke over her and now she was already lying beneath him.

What kind of punishment was that? If he was supposed to give this punishment to all the ladies, I bet that there would be a long row of ladies from capital to here.

As his hand was about to push down the last single layer of clothes from her, the door was knocked loudly.

Both of them jolted before looking at each others blankly.

OLD CASTLE,

Athena kept her eyes on the path of Siemus expectedly. Letting out a long sigh, she recalled the moment of discovering Siemus 12 years back in the jungle.

Siemus was a transformed RAIBON vampire who had special abilities like human, witch and pure blooded vampires. They usually perform dark magics and extremely fond of violence. Thus everyone feared them for their ruthless nature and killing intent. They are blessed to change their shapes anytime.Because of holding powers and natures of three different species, they were born as fierce and extremely powerful which was very rare in the vampire world. They aren't ruled by anyone even not by the vampire king himself.

It was Athena's blessing that she found Siemua in the Rainbow Forest. Years back, Athena went on hunting at a full moon day in the Rainbow Forest and found Siemus injured severely. As no one was by her side, she was almost on the verge of death and fell unconscious.Athena found her state pitiful and used her natural healing power to recover her health. From that day, Siemus vowed to help her whenever Athena summons her to repay the gratitude for saving her life. After that, she worshipped Athena as her master and obeyed by her every command without opposing.

But unfortunately, Athena didn't summon her when she needed Siemus the most !

Turning back from her vague memories, she glanced at the silver clock and saw that more than two hours had been passed. It was nearly at dawn time and the rain continued without showing any mercy.

The sound of Eagle's snarling travelled inside the damp room vaguely. Athena's face tensed up as she saw Siemus coming towards her away from the cloudy sky.

Athena got up in anxiousness and couldn't wait to hear everything from Siemus. The frightened bird quickly changed her form and turned into a human body quickly.

Despite having the cold face, Siemus's expression was pale as she explained after giving a bow,

" My Lady, I have got all the informations that you wanted."

Athena had already started having bad feelings about her informations. She gestured her to talk as she heard her saying in a hoarse voice,

" You have heard right, My Lady. The LG Group had been ordered to kill Ethan Chole tonight. I had been keeping eye over there abandoned house for half an hour. Later I heard the leader Draco commanding everyone how to initiate the attack with a group of muscular soldiers. As for the exact location of their attacking, I couldn't figure out it. But I heard that their spy had been keeping an eye over Ethan Chole in the DALASTIA WORLD. "

Siemus seemed hesitant as Athena continued staring at her and worrying for Ethan inwardly. She asked in a low shaking voice,

" What.. what did you find out more, Siemus? "

Siemus lowered down her eyes and continued in a reluctant tone,

" Your.. Your assumption was right, my lady. Ethan Chole is indeed the second Prince of DALASTIA WORLD and the rightful heir of the throne. That.. That means, Brother Edward was his eldest brother."

Athena gasped softly clutching the edge of the bed behind and panted recalling the earlier disaster. Even though she predicted the entire connection but still she hold a little hope that she might turn out wrong. Now Siemus had confirmed everything, it stood no chance of misjudging the incidents.

Siemus quickly hold her arms and asked with concern,

" My Lady, are you alright?"

Athena looked up at her and nodded her head before pleading,

" Siemus, find out that where they are going to attack Ethan. I have to save him no matter what."

Siemus spoke frowning hard,

" You don't have to worry my lady. This time, Siemus is on your side. No one can harm you as long as I'm alive. But why do you want to save Ethan Chole desperately? You know that LG are called to be the ruthless vampires that ever existed in our history."

Athena replied softly looking down the damp floor,

" I have to repay Edward, Siemus or else I won't even die in peace. If I lose my life saving Ethan, I won't feel any regret belive me. "

Though they didn't spend so much time with each others, Siemus could read through her emotions. She read her extreme concerned face before asking hesitantly,

" Is it all only repay or something else, My Lady? "

Athena shifted her eyes uncomfortably before coming up with a reply,

" Whatever it was, now it's impossible, Siemus.I can't cheat on Edward by falling for a wrong person. Moreover I don't want anymore lives loosing for me. I have already lost two most important persons of my life. I.. I can't bear to loose anymore."
