Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 450 - 450 You Still Love Me



450 You Still Love Me

“So you brought a man to make me jealous?” asked Declan with a goofy grin on his face that Anne cursed under her breath.

Why was her luck so bad! She had been a good woman, did charities, prayed to god and even helped everyone but yet!

It took her a second to get a hold of herself when she turned to look at him and stared back into his eyes with a mocking look.

“Ha! It is just to keep a pest away. Do you think that the insects are important when we try to shoo them away?” but no matter what she said the goofy smile did not wipe off his face.

He nodded his head like an obedient child but she could see in his eyes that he was not paying attention to a single word that irked her.

She wanted to slap him to remove that goofy smile off his face but knew that it would not work out.

Rolling her eyes she started walking again when she heard the footsteps behind her and sighed.

“Why are you following me?” she asked with a pause and looking back at him when she saw that grin again.

It was such a silly grin but instead of making her laugh, it irked her to no end.

.....

“Oh.. were you so busy finding a man that you forgot.. We are working together and today we were going to infiltrate their coven in disguise?” no! It was not because she was busy finding a man. It was he and his mate Eve that were on her nerves that she was not able to work at all.

“He works in the stables.” she said with a sigh when he laughed out loud.

His eyes were filled with humor and shone like stars when she looked away.

She did not want to look into them anymore.

“You are bad when it comes to emotions Anne. you hurt that kid with the desire to hurt me.” she looked back at him with horror when he sighed at the denseness of this woman.

He covered the distance between them. One step at a time as if he was making sure that she did not run away.

“That kid thought that you like him. And if he persists, you will open your heart for him.” that made her eyes wide.

Didn’t she clear her intentions well?

“Ha! You are just spouting nonsense like always. I am not in the mood for it.” she turned to leave but he held her wrist and pulled her towards him.

His eyes had turned so intense that she felt fear for a second.

“He backed away not because I had beaten him.” he whispered, “he left because he saw it in your eyes. Even when you were fighting with me for him, your eyes just had me and it was just an excuse to show that you hate me. To prove yourself that you did not care for me anymore. But in the process, you are only thinking about me.

He had realized that even if he would wait and try, you would never give your heart to him. If there would have been even a slight hope, he would have persisted.” her eyes stirred.

There was something in his voice, in his eyes that told her that irked her, that burnt her and churned her as if she was feeling guilt. She tried to name it anger, frustration but failed, so she looked away again.

“I will..”

“I know. I know that you will never be with me. You have sung that song more than a thousand times. And i will not ask you anymore so do not do childish things like that again.” he said with a grim voice that her heart sank further.

She struggled to get her hands free but he let her go on his own accord.

“I am here only for Hazel. I did wrong to her too and when I asked for forgiveness, she asked me to help her. So, if you are done, can we go for our mission now.” he did not try to hold her anymore.

He did not even pushd the matter anymore and the grin was gone from his face. Yet.. she did not feel better.

She nodded her head as this might help her in getting rid of this uneasiness.

He nodded back and then asked, “do you know any illusion spell or we shall go and look for capes and cloaks?”

She closed her eyes and her lips whispered.

He finally stared at her with a sigh. How much he wanted to hug her and apologize. Tell her that he was a fool and did wrong but she did not need to punish herself for that but he knew that she was not going to listen.

She was not going to head and run away. The only way to keep her closer was to tell her that he did not love her anymore even if it pains her and tears him apart.

Her eyes.. They look swollen! Did she not sleep at all last night?

And her lips, why are they so parched? He wanted to touch them and sooth them.

He looked away the moment he felt her eyelid twitching and she opened her eyes.

“Is that fine?” she asked, when he looked back at her but the pain in his eyes hid under an indifferent look.

He stared at her and then at his hands and touched his face with confusion.

“Is there anything that has changed?” he asked with a raised brow when her brows furrowed.

“Hey, lady.” she stopped a walking woman who paused and looked back at Anne, “what is the color of this man’s hair?” she asked with an embarrassed look when the lady stared at Anne as if she was insane and then at Declan who was staring back at her.

“Silver hair! The one that belongs to the family of Marquis Lucio. Why?”
