Seduce The Villainess (GL)-Chapter 245 Lady Of The Night (69)
(Northern Region- Outskirts Of New Atlantic City)
(Castle Eden- Throne Room)
Anyone who claimed that they knew the future for certain was a liar or a charlatan.
Even the greatest of all seers could not make such a claim.
Seers could see possible futures, but random events, chance and fate could easily change the visions that they witnessed.
Prince Samuel knew this fact more than anyone else.
The first vision that he saw was the image of the First Ancestor ruling over humanity with an iron fist.
Vampires were at the top of the societal pyramid and humans were reduced to nothing more than livestock to be bred and consumed.
But his vision would never come to fruition because of one single event. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺
One event that at the time he considered to be irrelevant and not worth paying attention to.
The First Ancestor adopted a young human girl as his daughter.
That girl would break the glorious future that he had seen. She made the First Ancestor soft and weak.
He became as soft-hearted and compassionate as those foolish humans and Samuel had been too blind at the time to see the truth.
If he could go back in time… he would have killed Camilla as soon as she stepped foot in the First Ancestor's clan.
But he couldn't.
No one could change the past so all he could do now was look towards the future. This time… he did not make the same mistake.
Every scenario had been carefully planned and executed, all the pieces were in place, all the puppets that he created were acting out their roles to perfection.
And now…
It was time for the grand finale.
The hunters would burst through the door and fight a long and drawn-out battle with Camilla that would end in her falling once again into a deep slumber.
Then Samuel planned to posses her body using forbidden dark magic to combine his power with that of the most powerful vampire witch to ever live.
He would become unstoppable.
Bang! Bang!
The loud knocking noise on the other side of the doors intensified and a satisfied smirk appeared on Samuel's face.
He snapped his fingers and a person- sized hole appeared in the barrier. Now he only needed to sit back and wait.
"Do you hear them outside?" Samuel softly whispered as a sadistic gleam surfaced in his crimson eyes.
"The hunters are coming… they will kill you…"
Camilla stared at the vampire and the hatred in her gaze sent a cold shiver down Samuel's spine.
Even though she was weakened, even though rays of sunlight were pouring down on her body and burning her flesh…
Samuel felt fear.
Those crimson eyes staring at him… he had only seen a gaze like that one time before. For an adopted daughter… she was strikingly similar to the man who had raised her.
The wooden doors leading to the throne room swung open and both vampires focused on the humanoid figure who stepped into the room.
She wore a set of heavy white armour with dark red runes covering the metal. A longsword was held in her right hand and the blade was engulfed in golden flames.
Her eyes shone with an eerie golden light and a heavy pressure surrounded her body that made cracks appear on the floor beneath her feet.
? Prince Samuel frowned since this was a little different from the vision that he saw. Wasn't the Sun-born an archer?
Why was she holding a sword? And where were her two other companions?
Well… no matter.
A Sun-born would be more than enough to take down Lady Camilla in her weakened state.
In fact, this would probably work out for the better since there was less chance that the vampire witch would be accidentally killed during the fight.
"There she is!" Samuel shouted loudly as he extended his hand and pointed a finger at Camilla who appeared to be frozen in shock. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖
"Kill her! She is the terrible blood witch who has imprisoned and tortured thousands of humans! She deserves to die for her crimes!"
The Sun-born hunter nodded and slowly approached the two vampires with the sword in her hand gleaming under the sunlight.
There was a thin smile on her lips as she approached Camilla's fallen body and raised up her sword high in the air.
Slash!
A burst of golden flames erupted from the tip of her sword and shot out towards one of the vampires.
Samuel looked down slowly and saw an enormous hole in his chest where the flames had passed through his body.
"What…" the vampire prince stuttered in disbelief as he collapsed on the ground like a puppet whose strings had been cut.
The attack had been so sudden and so unexpected that he did not have any time to react to the blow.
The Sun-born hunter's figure blurred and then vanished from the spot. The last thing that Samuel saw was the cold steel of her blade penetrating his neck.
Then his vision faded away to darkness.
Mary looked down at the corpse on the ground that was already beginning to shrivel up and turn into dust.
She walked towards Camilla and gently lifted up her body in her arms. Camilla smiled weakly at her human lover who returned her smile with a soft kiss on her forehead.
"Are you okay?" Mary asked with concern as she bent over slightly to use her body as a shield against the sunlight.
"Yes… but… how did you find me so quickly?" Camilla asked curiously as she stared at her loyal knight.
"It's a long story… but I managed to defeat the hunters and got one of them to tell me your location… my sister actually…" Mary confessed truthfully.
Camilla raised an eyebrow and wanted to question her lover about this unexpected family member, but Mary shook her head.
"We can talk about that later… let me get you in a dark room so I can look after your injuries," Mary explained calmly.
Camilla nodded and leaned against Mary's chest.
The cold steel of the metal armour was truthfully a bit uncomfortable, but the female vampire did not mind.
She felt warm, safe, and protected in the arms of her lover. It was a feeling that she had not experienced since she was little girl.
It felt… good.
Mary carried Camilla in her arms through the barrier that was already starting to dissipate and up numerous flights of stairs.
She made sure to quickly walk past the areas where sunlight streamed directly through the open windows.
The castle was silent, and one could see signs of destruction from the attack.
Large cracks were present in the walls, the floor had broken tiles and several shards of glass from the windows littered the ground.
It would take a great deal of work to get the castle's interior back to shape.
Mary hoped that Camilla had some knowledge of how to do that since she had no idea how to repair and restore ancient castles.
Finally, the pair arrived at the doors of the main bedroom and Mary used her free hand to push open the doors.
Camilla let out a small groan of relief as Mary took her inside the darkened bedroom where heavy curtains prevented sunlight from entering inside.
"You need to feed…" Mary softly whispered as she placed Camilla gently on the bed and began to take off her armour.
Camilla found herself spellbound by the beautiful young woman with a lean and muscular body.
Mary was truly gorgeous, and she never got tired of looking at her figure.
The young woman peeled off the last layer of armour and then walked over to the bed and sat down next to Camilla.
She stretched out her arm and Camilla felt a familiar pang of hunger in her stomach. She needed to feed to recover from her injuries.
The female vampire's fangs extended, and she bit down on Mary's arm with more force than she usually did.
If Mary felt any pain, then she did not say a word of complaint. All she did was gently rub Camilla's back and whisper that everything was going to be okay.
They had survived.
