Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 208 A Queen



“They will not fit in one. You should let me drive another one!” Lucian stared at the cartridge and then at her.

He knew that it was difficult for all of them to fit in the wagon but letting her drive alone when he still felt that she was not stable is risky.

What if she gets attacked by other witches due to her unstable powers and were not able to protect herself. More than that, what if her husband had realized what she was and tried to kill her.

He wanted to keep her in front of her eyes no matter what!

“It is not safe, we need to be together in case we are attacked. One would be able to cover the kids while one would ride the carriage faster to find a safe route out of this place.” he stared at her and then at kids when he noticed that she was still reluctant.

There were 13 kids. 7 small boys and 6 girls. Two of them were badly beaten, the rest of them have small scratches or old injuries that were almost healed yet they have small marks on their bodies that did not leave..

“We will sit on the ground. It did not matter how we left but we did not want you to take the risk for our comfortability.

We have seen worse than it. It is nothing in front of..” the boy stopped as if he was bitten by an old memory that was nothing but pain for him.

“We would not have any problem adjusting in a single carriage.” Lucian nodded and opened the door of the carriage before Hazel would feel pity and protest.

He already had enough adventures in a single night. He did not want to face mpre trbole.

He wanted the nights to be as boring as possible so that they could safely cross these slums.

Hazel stared at him and then at the door he was holding for her. All the kids had already settled where the boys had given the seats to the girls and sat on the ground.

The girls were pale and weak and had not taken much space.

Four of them were able to sit on one side while the other two were sitting on the other side holding the youngest of them on their lap, so that Hazel could sit comfortably.

She took a step forward but instead of entering the carriage, she sat on the seat of the coachman which had enough space for two people.

Lucian raised a brow at her actions and then turned to see the bewildered faces of the kids and closed the door on their faces without explaining them.

It would be a lie if he would say that he was not looking forward to the journey.

With a smile on his face, he sat beside her and held the reins in his hands when he turned to look at her as if waiting for her permission when she nodded her head with a helpless smile on her face.

“You only take me as a mistress when you want to. Rest of the time, you treat me as if I am a kid.” she remembered how he had scolded her again and again for being careless and for not listening to him.

He had even chided her to be reckless and fast so that he was not able to match steps with her.

“That is because I am worried about you. Your actions are reckless, like a kid who needs surveillance all the time.” see! She knew it. She wanted to keep an eye on her all the time, as if she would burn the whole world if he did not do so.

“What have you thought about the kids? Are you sure you want to keep them with you? If your brother would find out, he would torment them just to gain your attention.

And if your husband found out about them and that you were attacked because of saving them, he would either go berserk and kill all of them or use them as his food storage.

They are not safe in both ways.” though he was telling her with a grave face and she nodded seriously. She already knew all this even if he had not explained it.

“I know. I will let them go as soon as I am sure that they are safe. And I want to know why they were kept there.” she added in a low voice as she knew that was being reckless again.

The sky had already turned darker and Rafael would be worried if she would not return to the palace soon. And her brother, she didn’t even know what that demon would do! What if he thought that she was planning a rebellion and did something foolish in front of Rafael.

She still needed a way to deal with them.

“You do not know anyone who can help you in keeping them safe?” he asked with a voce full of disbelief but she nodded her head.

There was no one she knew here. She had never been out of the palace ever. And Anne whom she knew had disappeared into thin air as if she never existed.

“Even then, you need to go back to the palace. I will help you in arranging a place for them but then you will return to the palace.

I know that you are worried about the kids. That is why I will go and check the place where they were kept again and investigate it further. But can not be invoked directly hazel.” he explained only to see her snort that surprised her as he was expecting an obedient nod.

“I am the queen, not a commoner that could be trampled so easily.

I know that it has risks but I am strong enough to take the responsibility of the kids. More than that, I feel it is only part of a bigger plan. Or else why were they kept hidden like that?”
