Ruthless King Chapter 14
Emaline reclined in the most luxurious spot within the palace, savoring the comfort it provided. She politely inquired as to the whereabouts of the palace's quietest nook with the attendant on duty. Directions were given to her, and she was led to this place. Her gaze was fixed on a point in the distance, though she could not discern what lay before her. Regardless of the excellence of the meal before her, she found herself unable to partake. The reason for her lack of appetite lay in the fact that her mother, who had recently regained consciousness after fainting, was still refusing to speak to her. Following her reprimand of Emaline, her mother hurled a curse at the king. In the end, Emaline succumbed to her mother's insistent demands. The wind relentlessly battered her face. A biting cold that seemed to seep into every crevice accompanied the stillness of the night. The maids and guards standing behind her were strictly off-limits, no matter how much she yearned to inquire abou

"Emaline!" A piercing scream escaped Alaric's lips as he beheld his beloved one, unconscious and convulsing, while he contended with the renegade vampires who had submitted to their faction. The man found himself unable to release Emaline from his grasp, for she clung to his arms with fierce determination. As they approached the prison gates, she suddenly lost consciousness. Without a moment's hesitation, Alaric gently tapped the rosy cheeks of his beloved to assess her condition. "Goodness gracious," he muttered under his breath. He uttered the name Horacio. “Watch out for these leeches!" Make certain that they are taken care of!” Alaric instructed his butler, With swift and practiced movements, Horacio executed his master's commands. With a sense of urgency, Alaric made his way to the entrance of the prison and swiftly retraced his steps back to his quarters. The matter of their sleeping arrangements with the woman had not yet been broached. He relinquishes the decision-making t

"Where are we headed?" As the car glided along the road, Emaline turned to the man beside her and posed a question. Alaric rarely used the vehicle because he preferred to run purposefully towards his intended endpoint while covering the distance on foot. "Love," Alaric said, "we are headed to an orphanage." Emaline stayed there, her mind reeling from the man's words. Her mind struggled to comprehend the notion that a gentleman of his stature would deign to visit an establishment such as an orphanage. "What shall we do once we arrive there?" She posed the question with a serious tone. Alaric gently grasps Emaline's hand in his own. They sat side by side. "You and I are collaborating on the organization of an outreach program. Typically, I undertake this task in solitude, but with your presence, the endeavor has become notably more effortless. We could journey together," he suggested. "I implore you not to become disenchanted with the palace," the man earnestly explained. Emaline w

"I regret to inform you that my name is not Ophelia," she said with a hint of apology in her voice. Emaline introduced herself to the child, gently extricating herself from the tight embrace. "I am an only child," she informed the young one. The child eagerly shook her head, even though she couldn't see her. "No! Ophelia!" she exclaimed, "it is you! You are my younger sibling!" The young girl muttered with a tinge of anger directed at her. Emaline was left in a state of bewilderment as she tried to comprehend the child's words. It was particularly perplexing for her, given that she was older than the child and had never experienced having a sibling. Her mother had been facing difficulties conceiving again, which only added to Emaline's confusion. Emaline gently touched the little girl's face. Emaline empathizes with the child's plight, recognizing the immense difficulty that comes with losing one's parents or family. Her heart aches for the child, and she finds solace in the notio

A week had passed since the events that transpired at the orphanage. Emaline continued to see Alaric. Emaline felt a newfound sense of liberation, despite the fact that her surroundings remained obscured from view. Emaline must be well-versed in the duties of a queen if she is to ascend to the throne. The man remained preoccupied with her, thus rendering any discussion about her eyes a distant possibility. Having just arrived from Britain, they set out to uncover and resolve the issues plaguing the land. She remains by the man's side throughout the day as he toils. Her body was weary, yet she paid no heed to the feats she had achieved through her association with the man. She breathed a sigh of relief as she noticed the man was actively seeking her input during their meeting. The man was unwavering in his focus, giving her his complete and undivided attention as she spoke. Emaline breathed a sigh of relief as she realized that the man before her truly regarded her as an equal, des

As Emaline drifted off to sleep, her mind was consumed with worry. Little did she know that the act of falling in love with Alaric would be the key to unlocking her vision. Once more, she succumbed to slumber, drifting off into a world of reverie and introspection. "Do you not desire my presence, my beloved?" Before, Emaline had been unable to discern the man's visage, but now it was strikingly distinct. In the depths of her slumber, his striking countenance materialized before her. The dilation of her pupils was evident, a physical manifestation of her heightened state of arousal. Her mind reeled as she was overcome with surprise. The man's striking appearance surprised Emaline. The woman had beheld him in her dreams, yet she had not anticipated his godly appearance. "I -I," Her voice was silenced, leaving her unable to utter a single word. Emaline lay on the bed, her gaze fixed on Alaric. For three days, they remained silent, as she was overwhelmed by the revelations she had unc
Ruthless King Chapter 20
The countenance of the king was one of contentment, yet it was not to be misconstrued as a sign of clemency. The nobles who had recently returned from their search to locate the remains of Emaline's father were well aware that the slightest provocation could incite the King's wrath and that no one would be exempt from its consequences. The entire court was in a state of obeisance, with heads bowed and knees bent before the regal figure seated upon his throne. A smile graced his countenance, seemingly oblivious to the presence of the nobles until Horacio addressed him. Horacio approached the king with a sense of urgency, his voice low and respectful. "My liege, the nobles have returned from their mission," he announced, gently lifting the King's chin to meet his gaze. After spending a delightful evening with his beloved, he arrived at this place with a radiant smile on his face. Their conversation in the bedroom had left him feeling elated. At first, the woman appeared to be timid a

"Are you well, my friend?" asked Victor's companion. With a subtle inclination of his head, the man conveyed his agreement. He had been rendered unconscious for several weeks as a result of the heinous actions inflicted upon him and his family by the vampires. His body was riddled with numerous broken bones and injuries. Victor's jaw dropped in disbelief as the memory of what had happened flooded his mind. He vowed to seek retribution. He couldn't simply allow it to occur in such a manner and release it from his mind. The denizens of this locality had been his companions up until this moment. The man chose to withhold the whereabouts of his abode for this very reason. Before the arrival of the vampires who would soon attack them, he had already dispatched a message to his comrades via radio. He knows that this thing will happen even more, and he and his wife know that they have what they need. As he lay on the brink of death, his loyal companions came to his rescue and pulled him
