RECOMMEND SONG: With You In The Morning By Carl Storm ~????

Her footsteps were heavy sometimes staggered when the pain in her heart felt too heavy to carry out anymore. Every step towards the study room felt like a deathly play that she wanted to run away from it badly. But unfortunately she needed those answers to find out every inch of truth that had been kept hidden from her for so long.

The narrow corridor was lightening up the entire space bright enough to see everything crystal clear but the visions in front of her sight were dark because of those painful memories that she had built in this castle. From the very first day, she thought of leaving him numerous times but as the day passed away, she finally realised that he didn't trap her here anymore. Instead she, herself trapped her in his love. The more she thought about everything, she felt mockery on herself and wanted to slap herself uncountable times for becoming such a fool.

How could the king of Vampires take a liking on her who had no prestigious us even in Human World?

She should have guessed it earlier.

Fool..Fool..!

She cursed herself several times and choked on her saliva as her pace stumbled towards the direction of his study room. She had a instinct feeling that her questions could be answered once she searched through Aaron's staffs. Except courtroom, Aaron used to spend most of the time in his study room and must have left something about his illness here. After making this brief calculation, Esme wiped her tears off stubbornly and decided to find the truth on her own. Even if she heard everything from Athena's tongue, one part of her still foolishly hoped that Aaron wasn't in fault.

As numerous thoughts clouded her mind restraining her abilities to think calmly, she stepped on the pink carpeted floor absentmindedly. A middle sized Chandelier was lightening up the entire space that made easier for her to look through everything.

After drawing a deep breath to adjust her emotions, Esme's eyes wandered across the room sharply and finally stopped on the desk where she had discovered the bottles earlier. Gulping down her bitter saliva, she stumbled forward towards the drawer and ignored the door which was left half-opened.

The entire space was deadly quite except her shallow breathing, nothing could be heard inside the exaggerating study room of King Aaron. As if her limbs had stopped working, she dragged her heavy body towards the drawer absentmindedly and pulled open the drawer in thud.

As soon as it was opened, her eyes caught a series of empty bottles that had caught her attention earlier in the past. Forcing her breathing to calm down, her shaky hands grasped one of his empty bottle and picked it up in the air.

After taking an observant look of that empty bottle, her moisty eyes looked through the scatered papers inside the drawer deeply. She didn't spend much time looking through those papers as she knew that Aaron could never leave such an important staff in this random places.

Shifting her eyes over the shelves where she saw him many times to place his important documents, she started walking over to it blankly. Standing in front of the giant shelf, her eyes wandered over those neat papersheet until it finally paused over a red envelope which looked quite fancy in her eyes.

Scrutinising her eyes together, she drew a long breath before reaching for the envelope that got her curiousity sparkling. With her hands shaking vigorously, she finally managed to pull out the paper that kept hidden inside the envelope successfully.

Once it was fully opened, her heart clenched into a fist when she located the attached letter from the old Lord binding with those documents. Her pale lips trembled lightly and the racing of her heartbeat quickened faster than before.

When the documents written in bold letter were presented in front of her vacant eyes, the rest of her world had completely broken down beneath her feet carrying each broken pieces of her little heart. The world of happiness had finally showed her a new bitter truth that she might never forget in this lifetime.

At that particular moment, the girl who tried her best to remain calm and stone cold had finally let go of her emotions freely. Her numb body fell down over the cold floor blankly. Her previous dry lips agaped in disbelief as a muffled cry finally made its way outside of her suffocated throat. Her slender shoulders finally trembled lightly before she brust into tears while scattering the papersheets in her fists tightly.

Her thin lips repeated those painful words continuously,

" You finally showed me your true colors. You have finally reached your destination. You.. lied to me..all this time..and..I believed your lies every time.."

She choked on her words and continued while shedding tears continuously,

" All you wanted is my blood! Isn't it? Then..why..why must you trick me to fall in love with you? You could have just killed me after the marriage. Why must you break my heart?"

She whimpered before screaming out loudly as her tear stained face faced the little chandelier above her head,

" Why.. why...why did you make me fall in love with you? "

She cried hard until realization hit her brain. Pausing between her sobbing abruptly, she mumbled while struggling to get up,

" You.. need my blood to save yourself, don't you?"

Forming into a bitter smile, she said her final words before leaving the study room that had witnessed her broken heart closely,

" I will accomplish my final responsibility of being your wife."

_AT THE BORDER OF SILVER CITY_

Everyone were trying their hard to stop those creatures from moving forward whilst Aaron was busy in finding the main mastermind behind everything.

As he kept wandering for Enchantress across the stop, he failed to notice that he had walked far more away from his own troops. As they all were entangled with those absorb shadows coming out from nowhere, they didn't pay attention over Aaron's safety. Morever they had a belief that Aaron had the powers of defeating anyone around their world.

Wished that they knew the truth..!

As snarling from his vampires kept drifting further away from him, Aaron walked into the nearby alleys which were covered with dense forest. The clouds drifted away from north to south but had no glimpse of light due to the biggest lunar eclipse of year.

His gaze was sharp as he paid extra attention on each movements that sounded around the spot. After walking few steps into the forest, Aaron had a vague feeling of being watched out by someone from nearby.

He furrowed his eyes in rage and blurted out huskily,

" I Know that you are here. Come out and spill out your conditions. Stop scaring off my people."

As soon as his words echoed in the air, a huge force crushed down from the branch above his head which made him stumbling backwards instinctively.

The thick branch finally broken down just in front of his eyes followed by a familiar figure who landed down from the branch like a queen.

There come a sinister laughter loudly along with her evil tongue,

" Why so rush, my dear nephew? Are you so eager to die? Why don't we wait for your death tomorrow simply? I have got to know that your savior has been improsened by the council members.What are you waiting for then?"

As her words spitted out, Aaron was stunned as a glimpse of fear could be noticed on his expression.

How could she know everything about his health? Who leaked this information? Could it be Old Lord or who..?
