Loved By a Vampire King-Chapter 567: The Unexpected Bond
He kissed her hard, their tongues danced together abruptly. Although, Isabella wanted to push him away, she found herself, clutching his chest. The overbearing kiss left her breathless, giving butterflies into her stomach. She didn’t remember when was the last time she was kissed like this. To tell more about her late-husband, he was a man who prioritized sex rather than intimate moments. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Meanwhile, the most shocked person was Freya on the other side. She was stopped by the entrance to witness their passionate kiss with her own eyes. Her eyes were almost popping out of its coats. So, everything they imagined was actually real. This damned princess had actually seduced Duke Silas.
As the thoughts came across her mind, Jealousy burnt her soul. With her lips trembling together in rage, she stormed to head for the other direction back to the gathering. On the other side, Silas didn’t stop kissing her for a long while. He had been yearning for this moment too long. With just a single touch, his self-restraint broke down and all he could think about was consuming her in his life.
Suddenly reality kicked her hard and she gasped pushing them apart with force. Both of them panted heavily, her cheeks turned red in shade. Isabella pressed her lips tightly to scold, her voice dripping with anger,
" Duke Silas! You have crossed all limits today. I have told you many times that we are impossible. Why did you do this?"
Silas turned vulnerable after listening to her angered tone. She never talked to him like that but what could he do to arouse her feelings for him? Even after spending so many days together, she refused to admit to having any feelings for him. Not even that, she had actually joined the gathering today and was acting cool as if it didn’t matter to her.
He had never been so ignored before in his entire life. Silas blurted out, his eyes continued staring at her pale face,
" I am sorry but I had to do this, Princess. I have never cared about what others think of me. All I want is you. I don’t care about an heir..I.."
" But I do..care..", Isabella shouted out suddenly, breaking into tears. She couldn’t control her emotions anymore. Gulping hard, she began to stress her words out,
" Have you thought how will I face your mother when she will learn about your feelings for me? She trusted me because she thought that I was your good friend. She has been yearning to see her grandchildren for all these years. Have you thought about her emotions for once?I can’t...I can’t step into your life to ruin everything...I feel guilty..She gave me love like her own daughter. Your family has been taking care of me these past months. Tell me Silas.. How can I be so ungrateful to them because of my own happiness?"
Silas looked down weakly. He knew that he had screwed up badly. They were in no positions to chase each other’s love but he had no other choice. Isabella sucked raw breath one more time before giving her final words coldly,
" I think... It’s time for my... return to the Basarisk.."
Silas’s eyes snapped open wide in shock. He opened and closed his mouth to say something. Isabella had already turned around to leave the corridor. She should just go back to her brother. If she stayed anymore here, things would be more complicated than now.
Just before Isabella could leave the entrance, Silas’s words froze him midway,
" You...you can’t go away from me, Isabella.."
" What do you mean?", Isabella blurted back, looking behind her. Her brows were knitted in confusion.
Silas clenched his eyes shut briefly. When he opened them, his eyes had fully turned green, reflecting his powers. His words came out emphasizing,
" Because you are the only woman who can give birth to my child. We have sealed our mate bond already, Isabella."
The world froze around Isabella who gasped hard, looking at the direction of Silas in shock.
But the scene inside the castle was quite different than before. After the queen figured out that her dearest son had actually no interest in choosing women from them, she took the charge in her hands. It was more likely to say that Freya caught her attention amidst all the girls. Not only was her family well educated, she was known as the noble lady of the town.
The queen & Mrs.Burton were having tea together after their delicious dinner. It was the queen who invited her to have a chat personally. After her call, everyone had already understood where their queen’s interest was laying. So they began to leave one after another to save their own faces.
The queen spoke very straightforwardly, drinking her tea,
" Mrs.Burton.. I won’t waste your time with irreverent words. I must admit that you raised your daughter well. She can even manage state affairs. I must say that no one can be more perfect than her here for my son."
Mrs.Burton had given her a massive smile. She had been waiting for this moment to come up but it seemed like God had turned her wishes true. She took another sip before telling,
" It’s my honor, your Highness! However, I have to ask my daughter first."
Mr.Burton raised her head slightly to look for Freya. She found her, storming inside the room with a dark face. It looked like her mood was a little off. She called her sweetly, pretending to be a good mom in front of the queen,
" Honey..come here..Her highness would like to ask you something.."
Freya snapped out of her thoughts and nodded before coming over to them. The queen smiled at her before slipping to the question directly,
" Freya...I have heard your mother’s opinion already.. Would you like to marry my son?"
Freya almost showed her reaction of disbelief but the corner of her lips slightly curved up. So what if they kissed? As long as she could become the crown princess here, nothing else mattered. She replied shortly after that politely,
" It’s my honor, Your Highness but I have a request.."
