Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 348 A Stranger But Stronger Enemy



“Lets just take them out and then leave.” since the cells were covered with spells. They could not use their magic to take the women out from their cages.

They opened each door manually. This time the knights did not return to help them but they were glad.

They did not want the witches to fall into the hands of council or vampires even if the lord was her husband.

She knew better than others that Rafael could not let go of his hatred towards the witches.

They stepped further into the lonely corridor which felt strangely colder now as if winter had appeared again. The place was no less than a large palace which had hundreds of rooms.

This time when they open the cell, the witches are not needed to be motivated to come out of their cells. They have been watching how Anne and Hazel had fought with others to save them.

But that did not let their guards down when they came closer to Hazel and Anne.

They looked at both of them with vigilant eyes.

“We are not here to harm you.” said Anne and Hazel nodded. “Nor do we need something in exchange for your freedom.”

The eyes of the witches flickered with something darker in it.

“We only wanted to free all of one. Help those who are seriously injured and run to a protective place.” said Hazel in a soft and assuring voice, “those who did not have anywhere to go, they can come with me. I will help you in healing and keeping you safe.” she offered but many have taken a step back.

They have read the legends of the dark witch who eats the souls of humans and other witches to control them. Hazel has the same eyes that were described in the myths.

She took a step closer and saw many witches were ready to attack her when Anne chided,

“She is the one who decided to save you while the witches that looked similar wanted to kill you in the first place. Are you sure that you want to attack on her or fight with her?” The words were harsh but true.

The girl had fought with all the witches alone.

They lowered their heads and nodded when a few of them started to leave.

“You do not need to stay. You can always leave if you are free.” repeated hazel when many nodded and started to run away.

“There are still a few injured one left in the cells.” said Anne as she walked into the one.

The place was dirty and full of murky stench that could make one nauseated.

She walked further to catch sight of skeletons that were dumped in the corner. There were at least more than twenty of them which were thrown on top of each other, creating a tower.

She noticed that there are parts missing on the skeletons as if one had killed them but cutting that part and then left here to rot without a care.

Her brows furrowed when she heard the sound of someone moving in the dark.

Before she could turn, she felt something crawling on her feet and she jumped from her place.

Hazel, who had walked into another cell where she had seen the injured woman from that day, turned to see what her sister was making the fuss about.

Walking forward, she looked at the bare skeletons and Anne jumped beside them and frowned.

“Is there something on your feet?’ she asked when she felt the sudden movement beside her and felt a dagger on her back.

“Damn! Those sneaking bitches!” she shouted and turned to attack the initiator but the room was empty.

She frowned as she touched her back and felt the warm liquid coming out from her body.

The dagger was still there to prove that it was not a dream.

“Anne!” She called her sister only to see the masked man being her and the dagger was about to slash the neck of Anne when her eyes widened.

“Damn!” she shouted as she snapped her fingers and a log fell on the feet of the masked man but once again he vanished before it could hit him hard.

“He had the strong power of teleportation!” muttered Anne as she touched her neck where the blood had already stained her fair neck red. She walked closer to the skeletons while looking at the bones. She raised her hand, touching the dull white surface to feel nothing,

“They did not have their mana left.” she said as she looked at the whole cell with vigilant eyes.

“Stay alert, I do not want that disappearing monkey to attack you again out of the blue.” said Hazel as she walked to the woman who was laying there lifeless.

“Hey, why are your wounds not healed? Are you not a witch?” asked Hazel when she touched the woman only to see that she was unconscious while her whole body was covered with bloody marks that could leave goosebumps on the skin of anyone.

“She is badly injured!” shouted Hazel when Anne sighed.

“This cell only has a pile of skeletons. Take her while I check the next two cells then we are good to go.“ Hazel nodded as she held the young girl while looking at the side of stairs with a frown unsure why had the knights not followed them.

The girl showed no reaction when Hazel held her arms and started to drag her.

She scanned all the cells around her to make sure no one was left out when she heard the shriek of Anne.

The disappearing man had stabbed her on her abdomen and she was holding the wound with her both hands while she was already on her knees.

A surge of anger filled her and she casted another spell, that left more than thousand arrows on the men at the same time while the branches of the plant tried to hold him at his place.

The man winced but burnt the branches and disappeared into the thin air once again but a few drops of blood were on the ground where he was standing.

“What in the world was that?”
