Chapter 11: The person I fancy
The command was intimidating for Alora. She shook her head and requested Magnus not to do so. "I understand why Father didn't come here. Please Your Highness shall not trouble my family. I'll go to the place, where I belong," Alora said as she blinked rapidly. Her heart raced with the thought that Magnus might punish them.
"You aren't leaving this palace, Alora," Magnus clarified to her. "Let me remind you again. I am a man of my own rules. Your pleadings have no use on me. My order is supreme and it must be followed. I didn't wish to see you cry. Norman's biggest mistake is to ignore the person I fancy." Magnus even revealed his growing desires for Alora.
It had not been a day and she had already succeeded in pulling him in her charm. He had made up his mind not to let this woman go of his life at any cost. He needed her eyes, her blood, and her entire being.
Tobias and Odin whose eyes were still shut close were stunned to hear that the Vampire Prince was enticed by someone.
For Alora, it was shocking and unbelievable. She peered into his eyes to confirm his words. "Is it true?"
"Yes," Magnus admitted. "Leave this instant, Odin," he commanded.
"Yes, Your Highness." Odin pivoted on his feet and rushed to the capital.
Tobias decided to speak up, but he feared that Magnus might get angry at him. "I will see the dinner arrangements for Miss Alora." With that, he excused himself.
Alora wiped the remaining tears from the back of her palm while Magnus pulled back his hands.
