Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 343 Preparation For Hunt



Declan had an embarrassed smile on his face when he asked Anne to accompany him.

“No! Forget what I said, I was just being a bit out of my mind.” he said with a look of apology on his face as he slapped himself on the head bringing an amused smile on her face.

He laughed back slowly. But soon the atmosphere filled with an awkward silence again.

Just when he felt that she was leaving after nodding into his direction, he felt a strange loss and then took two hasty steps towards her but stopped when he realized he was being rude.

“Do you have to say anything?” she asked with a smile on her face that gave him courage.

He nodded his head like a rattle drum.

“I was just feeling a bit overwhelmed with the presence of my lord as if the room shrunk suddenly but when you came and sit beside me, it gave the courage.” he looked back at her dark eyes that looked like two whirlpools in the autumn nights, lethal yet beautiful that one could not take their eyes away from them.

“So, thank you.” he wispered when she smiled, and her hard face softened a bit.

“You will do better, you just need to have faith in yourself.” if only she could explain to him how well he had performed. It is not easy to get a nod when the couple are on one page.

“Did it mean that I got recognition from them?” she chuckled when she felt the tremor in the voice of the man.

He looked so agitated by the idea of winning this chance that she could not help but nod her head.

“They both have the habit of killing first then asking the reason. Since you are still breathing, you have won the first round.” she patted the man whose face suddenly turned pale and he gulped.

His hands instinctively covered his chest as if he was trying to protect himself.

“Now you should worry about convincing the nobles. Since Hazel had decided that she would be the queen, then she would be one.” her voice turned grave, giving the man goosebumps who was about to refute again.

“Not to forget that her crazy lover was following her in this.” she added hiding the laughter when she saw how he looked like he had seen a ghost.

The man looked at a loss of words as he forgot about everything and punched on the glass of water and chugged all in a single gulp.

But just as she turned to leave, he called for her again.

“So..!”

She tilted her head as she repeated, “so?”

“I will see you again here.” he muttered hastily as if he was afraid that she would cross question him and left.

She looked at his leaving figure and shook her head. A smile formed on her lips unconsciously and her mood was much uplifted.

“Bang!” The sound of the shot of a gun filled the whole palace soon.

“This way you are going to burn the whole empire except the one you want to kill!” Rafael taunted when she used so much pressure in the force.

But he was amazed at the bullets she had created. They were just wonderful but too strong.

Hazel stared at the burning woods and sighed.

“What did you do to the bullets?” he asked when she put the gun down and took out another set of his bullets.

“I am starting a chain reaction in them that would make them stronger. I want to win the hunt.” she said in a voice full of determination when he nodded. He had guessed this much.

“I will back you up.” he stood behind her and massaged her back as he looked at her casting a spell on the bullets again.

She traced the corner of the bullet with her finger when he felt the power diffusing into the gunpowder.

“That would not be needed! I did not want others to think I am your pawn to gain the ruling power of the human empire.” her voice was grave when she said so as she loaded the gun with new bullets and then shot the dummy again.

This time the dummy was burnt instantly and its body turned into ashes and she frowned.

“Well, if you will not bring the body back, then it would not be counted as part of the hunt.” he said with an amused chuckle.

Using Hazel to fight with simple animals was like using a sword to cut the fruits. It was going to end up in a disaster.

Unknowingly, her lips pouted as she placed the gun on the table again and then took out another set of bullets from the large box.

“If you continued to use them with such speed, I am sure all my stock would end up before the hunt would even start.” she ignored the teasing in his voice as she diffused some of her powers in the bullets again.

“Using magic in the field would be dangerous. I do not want other nobles to know that I am a witch yet.” she said with a sigh as she was not sure if it would work this time.

“But I know I do not have enough physical strength to fight with the animals head on.” his brows furrowed as he looked at her worriedly when he felt bad for her.

The moment that human left, she had come here and was trying to practice her fighting power but as she said, her body was weak.

She was too petite and grew up sheltered under the four walls of the palace.

Shooting just one or two bullets would not be enough if she met a stronger beast or bear.

“Well, if this would not work, you can just burn all the nobles with your latest bullets and announce yourself as the winner.” he laughed but she only glared at him in return as she placed another set of bullets in the gun and shot again.

“I have a better solution.”
