Chapter 2 --2 Marry the Vampire Prince
The next morning~~~~
The otherwise quiet and peaceful palace of the hunter's bloodline royals was quite chaotic today.
The girl with eyes as calm as an ocean sat on the couch elegantly as she witnessed the argument between her stepmother and father.
Last night, she had told herself that nothing she heard was true, but maybe it was a long-lost cause.
Now she understood why her stepmom was so happy to see her back, and why everyone was treating her like she was the legit princess.
They wanted her to be the scapegoat for Madeline once again. Once again they wanted to use her in the name of 'that's what family should do for each other,'
A hint of mockery spread across her lips.
"Try to understand, Marla. I told you this last night too, didn't I? The Vampire king has asked for the hand of our daughter Madeline. How can you even think about sending Elliana to them? Do you think they will appreciate it if we change the bride at the last minute?" The king, James, said for the umpteenth time.
He glanced at his second daughter briefly, but there wasn't even the slightest hint of expression on her face.
Elliana just sat there as if she was just watching a scene from some old soap opera unfolding in front of her eyes. Her eyes were drooped and empty.
"James, darling, I understand what you are trying to say, but Madeline has an infectious disease. The wedding is tomorrow. The vampire royals have asked for Madeline's hand because she is beautiful and pleasing to the eyes. Do you think they'll appreciate her if she appears with a distorted face and body? They want her for her purity," The queen, Marla, retorted with a sad and mournful look on her expression.
