Loved By a Vampire King-Chapter 589: The Odd Visit

" Isle Town? Never heard this name before!", Ayra muttered in a gloomy voice, her eyes continued narrowing. She didn’t remember even in her distant memories that something like Isle town ever existed. Not to mention, there was a mansion under Cedric’s name. It was no secret that kings were wealthy people and they had a lot of properties. Hence, she didn’t find it suspicious that Cedric had any property there. Rather she was more curious to know how the diary went there.

Ayra nudged Siemus’s arms and said,

" Tell me how to get there!"

Siemus tried to look deep into the mansion but once she tried, some external powers shook her off. Despite her strong abilities, she couldn’t see the interior mansion properly. Siemus jerked before snapping open her eyes. She was panting slightly and said with a huff,

" It seems like his majesty has put some kind of spell there. I couldn’t see the inside of the mansion that well. It’s better that you give a visit there or you can ask his majesty to take you there. I don’t think that he has ever turned down your offer."

Ayra gave it a thought but it didn’t seem positive. If Cedric wanted to let her see his mother’s diary, he wouldn’t have passed it somewhere else. He definitely was hiding the diary. Ayra shook her head and said in a dull voice,

" No! He doesn’t want me to discover it. So, I think, the only way to go there is to find out where it is."

Ayra gave it deep thought. When her eyes fell on Siemus, they lit up hopefully and she smiled meaningfully. She said gripping Siemus’s arms,

" Help me! Aren’t you my dearest Aunty? I am pretty sure that Frenchies know this place. If only he could guide us..."

" NO Way!", Siemus cut off rudely even before Ayra could finish her words. She had been odd with Frenchies for a long time especially since he gave her some hints. However, she wasn’t ready to give it a try with someone who was years younger than her.

Ayra furrowed her brows hard then gripped onto her arms before requesting again and again,

" It’s just for a while..I know, you can do anything. You are keeping your distance from him. I get it but at least, trap him and spill out the words from his mouth. Please.. only you can do this.."

In the end, Siemus had to bow down in front of Ayra’s stubbornness. After all, she was her baby princess who grew up in front of her eyes. How could she refuse her request so heartlessly?

When the evening fell down around the Basarisk, Frenchies habitually sat down in front of the moon. These days, Cedric didn’t let him accompany him always as he thought that it was a risk to leave the castle all alone without any of them. Among his people, he could trust Frenchies only.

Frenchies sat down with his small bag of wine and began drinking alone until a sweet voice echoed in his back,

" Hey buddy! Can I join you?"

Frenchies looked up at her with a mouthful of wine and was in a dilemma for a while. He really thought that he was dreaming until Siemus let out an awkward laugh,

" Fine! I will just go back if you don’t want me to join."

Frenchies cut off hastily, moving on the other side to give her space,

" No, Wait! I was just too surprised!"

Siemus let out a sigh of relief secretly and went to sit next to him. She really hated this awkward atmosphere but she was helpless as well. Frenchies blurted, offering her a glass,

" Is the sun coming up from the north today? What brings you here to me, Oldie?"

Siemus shrugged, taking a small sip from her wine,

" Nothing special! I was bored in the room anyways. I miss flying in the sky. I don’t know if I should try it now or later. I have been here in the Basarisk for a long while but I couldn’t get the chance to see the places. Can you tell me about the places here? I mean..I always wish to visit.."

Frenchies cut off, sounding all excited,

" I can take you there if you want to. I mean..I know the places better than anyone. There are a lot of towns across the Basarisk such as the northpole, Westburn then Isle town.."

Siemus’s eyes narrowed at his words darkly as she asked between, putting on a big smile,

" Isle town? How can we go there? I have never heard of it before."

Frenchies replied, not getting any idea of her fake smile and wiped his lips while speaking,

" Mmm! It’s easy! There’s a lot of local carriages that go to Isle town every single day from here. Even if you can’t fly, we can go with that."

Siemus got up hurriedly and said with a smirk before stepping away,

" Thanks! I can travel alone all by myself. I don’t need you."

Her response broke his heart instantly. He thought that she was warming up finally but she said the exact opposite. Frenchies got up and were caught up by her arms before hissing in anger,

" Do you enjoy playing so much with my feelings? Why the hell did you come and now pretend like you don’t care about me?"

Siemus struggled in his grip, furrowing as she blurted at his face,

" I didn’t mean anything..I was just curious to know..Let go! I don’t want to travel with you."

Frenchies gritted his teeth together, his patience running out. After pulling her closer, he stressed his words on her face one by one,

" You will go out but only with me. I am not letting you play with me again. You are coming with me tomorrow, Siemus. You heard that?"

Siemus squirmed in his grip. She never saw such ferocious eyes before. She didn’t know that cats could have such red eyes. She wanted to retaliate but suddenly she couldn’t find any words. It was indeed the truth that she came to him with motives today.

When the night grew deeper in Basarisk land, it started drizzling lightly. Thanks to Siemus’s little information, Ayra managed to track down the carriages which used to go to Isle town. She along with Elizabeth sneaked out of the castle that night and had headed straight for the station of the local carriages. Even the clothes that they were wearing, were hired by the maids. Elizabeth asked her worriedly,

" Princess! You could have done it either way. Why should I go to this distant town? What if something bad comes? His highness will kill me."

Ayra hussed her quietly and said while walking through the drizzling,

" Only she had ideas about demons. Nothing can be more informative than her own journal. Who knows maybe I will figure out how to kill Hayden."

Elizabeth hummed softly but she was still thinking that it was a bad idea. When they came to the station, all the carriages were gone already. Only one was left but the chauffeur didn’t seem like going anywhere in this weather.

Elizabeth talked first, hiding her face behind the hoodie,

" Mister! Can you give us a ride to Isle Town?"

The chauffeur replied in an irritated voice,

" It’s raining! I don’t want to go now!"

Ayra stepped forward and offered him in a deep voice,

" 10 golden coins! Will it be okay for you?"

The chauffeur was stupified for a moment but he was still hesitating because the rain was getting heavier. The carriage might encounter big accidents if he took the risk. But the golden coins looked tempting. He still denied in a weak voice,

" No! It’s risky. Besides, I really want to go home.."

Ayra said again, pulling out more coins from her waist,

" How about twenty?"

Elizabeth held her forehead and came on her side to stop her, 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

" You are giving her too much, Princess. It takes only one coin to ride anywhere. How can you offer him twenty?"

This time, the chauffeur opened the carriage door without any delay. His eyes were too greedy for the coins hence he said urgently,

" Yes! Yes! Please go inside. I will drop you off by Isle town. Don’t worry. I am a skilled driver. I will be careful on my way."

They got in the carriage together and finally took off their hoodies. The chauffeur with a happy mind got onto his seat and started chatting randomly,

" I don’t understand why it is everyone going to Isle town. Even two days ago, our king also travelled there with a local carriage. Aiyah! Rich people have different fantasies. He undoubtedly has his own garage of carriages. Why should he use the local carriages to travel there? Isle town is just a normal town without any special things."

This time, Ayra’s face became beyond shocking with a lot of question marks.
