Chapter 391: Vulcan’s Power
Mineah remained silent during dinner, acting all calm and composed while knowing the fact that her brother Ezekiel was not in Cordon. Nikolai also confirmed that her brother wasn’t in Valcrez, and none had received any advance notice regarding the King of Ebodia’s arrival.
"Hmm... you seem to be gaining more weight, my dear," her father teased her while they ate at the table.
Mineah frowned as she turned to Nikolai and asked, "Do I look fat now?"
Nikolai chuckled as he then cupped her face and said, "Your cheeks are puffier." He then kissed her puckered lips, making her blush hard.
"Stop that," she scolded him as she quickly sat up properly on her chair. "We’re in front of my parents."
While she didn’t mind showing public displays of affection while they were in front of other people, somehow, she felt that doing it in front of her parents was just embarrassing.
"Who would have thought that I would be able to witness these loving gestures between my daughter and the Vampire King?" her father suddenly remarked with a wide grin. "I’m glad that Beirut’s visions were accurate when it came to my daughters’ love lives. He assured me that giving my daughter’s hand to you is the best thing to do because he saw how Mineah would be happy and fulfilled staying by your side as your other half."
Mineah smiled in agreement. That was also what Beirut told her... Despite how things would become like a rollercoaster of experiences in the future, one thing he was sure of was that she would live a happy and content life in the arms of the Vampire King.
"Right," Mineah stated, changing the topic. "Speaking of our kingdom’s seer, is there any news or updates about Tarah?"
