Loved By a Vampire King-Chapter 14 - Royal Concubine
She revealed a warm smile like a raindrop falling from the blue sky after a dry summer.Aaron gazed at her deeply somehow confused.
She looked much elegant than the last time they met before.Her long eyelashes were flattering like a butterfly when she smiled at him brightly.She had a round nose giving off a vibe of little girl.Her deep red eyes were enchanting like a rising sun.Her soft, delicate lips painted with dark liver-coloured lipstick made her more alluring and attractive. No wonder she could steal a man's heart easily.
Especially the long light green colored gown accentuated her white skin silently making her a sexy, provocative woman.
Vanessa was quite enjoying his stunned expression. She thought for a while before beaming happily as her purpose of coming here has been successful.
In reality, Aaron didn't pay much attention on her provocative feature rather he was surprised to see her here all of sudden.
Vanessa walked inside the room without taking any permission from him anymore.
She simply walked towards him and grabbed a spot beside him on the couch.
Aaron frowned slightly before asking,
" Why did you come all of sudden?
Did something happen in your home?"
Vanessa felt unhappy hearing him interrogating her like a thief at first sight.
She parted her lips to start up a melodrama but was stopped by another voice coming from the doorstep,
" She belongs to here.
Where will she go, then? "
Aaron shifted his gaze away and saw his mother standing there smiling at them mysteriously.
She seemed much happy all of sudden. Walking in, she explained slowly,
" He is your royal concubine. Where will she go if she doesn't come here? "
Aaron frowned hardly before stood up instantly,
" Concubine?
Mother, what are you talking about? I never had any concubine. Above all, I got married just two days ago." Please visit 𝗳𝚛𝐞𝘦wℯ𝚋𝓷o𝚟el. 𝐜𝘰𝒎
Vanessa looked at him pitifully. He reacted so much just by hearing her to be a royal concubine. She sat there quietly and silently reassured her mind to be confident on Queen Mother and her tactics.
Even Queen Mother was a little taken back. She didn't expect him to be so aggressive just by giving him a concubine.
But she was a very wise woman.
Calming down her mind, she replied still maintaining a wry smile,
" Aaron, you know our castle's rule very well.Indeed you got married and have a lawfully wedded wife. But our king should have royal concubines just like the previous kings had. We can't depend on a woman only to have our heir.
The fast we get an heir, the fast our caln won't be threatened by our enemies."
She continued looking away disdainfully,
" Moreover, did you see that Esme didn't let you mark her. Though I suggested you first to marry her but that doesn't mean that you can't have other women. "
Though he was still angry over Esme but he found it injustice over her.
He understood that he forced her to marry him and needed sometime.
but he was willing to wait for her..
Wait for her until she opens her heart for him..
But why..!!!
Sighing deeply, Aaron turned away to face Queen Mother before declaring his thoughts,
" Mother, I get your reason. I have obeyed your order marrying Esme. But I can't accept Vanessa just like this after the day of my wedding. As for heir, let nature takes it course.My authority won't be challenged by anyone easily. If my empire and capabilities were so weak, I couldn't ascended on the throne at an young age. Have faith on me.
I will never let you down. If you want to keep Vanessa, you can keep her. But this has nothing to do with me."
His voice sounded normal but there was an powerful aura behind his words which made Queen Mother speechless in a moment.
She looked up and met his determined expression.
This was the first time that he was denying her order straightforwardly. Thus she could only gulp her unspoken words and decided to judge further about what to do.
Forcing a smile, she replied awkwardly,
" I.. I understand you, Aaron. I won't push this matter. Let Vanessa stay in the castle. After all she is familiar with our family and always liked to stay by my side."
Aaron replied shortly "ok" then made his way outside without sparing a glance at Vanessa.
He was already very bothered over the little girl. He was not in mood of arguing about anything new now.
As soon as he left, Vanessa burst out in anger and spoke angrily,
" Queen Mother, you believe it or not. Whatever is happening today, it is all because of you. Why did you let the girl marry her?You were already wanting me to marry him from the beginning.
Why did you let this happen and now asking me to be his concubine instead of his queen?
You know very well that a concubine can't be compared with the queen's status. "
Queen Mother threw her a sharp look before spoke in a low voice,
" It is not your concern.I have showed enough support to give you a space in this castle. Now just be obedient and follow my orders."
Vanessa couldn't argue back. Biting down her lips tightly, she kept quite and looked away furiously.
Absentmindedly, Aaron was walking through the corridor. He just felt a gust of anger cursing from his veins whenever she recalled Esme's hateful words for him.
In his lifetime, nobody dared to curse him so badly.
But this damn mind of him still wanted to approach her badly. The further she wanted to push him away, the more he wanted to see through her heart.
Why was she cold to him?
Didn't he treat her well since she came here?
When he was roaming in his thoughts, a sobbing tone echoed in his ear making him froze in his spot.
As he took a closer look, he found a girl crying badly crunching down hugging her knees.Her shuffled hairs hid her face from watching at her.
In this empty room along with her sobbing tone, she looked like a lost island isolated from the whole ocean waiting for a wayfarer to be discovered.
From the corner of the half-opened door, Aaron gazed at her body deeply too afraid to approach as if she will break just by his touch. Still his footsteps moved on slowly..
