Chapter 4 --4 The wedding
"Sir, this -" Lucas started, but Sebastian raised his finger to stop Lucas from speaking anything else.
Sebastian knew what his beta was concerned about. His cold eyes swept over the beautiful and innocent-looking girl, whose head was bowed in what looked like nervousness and shyness.
She wasn't scared of him. It was as if she was accepting some kind of fate. And it irked him a little. Was she forced into this?
Even when Sebastian hadn't met the daughter of the hunter bloodline, he immediately knew this girl wasn't the one mentioned by the elders.
From what Lucas had found out, the daughter of James Heart, the hunter bloodline holder, was wise and cunning, and this girl in front of him looked nothing like that.
A vampire's senses are one of the highest and sharpest in the world among all species, and Sebastian could feel James' uneasiness when he handed this girl's hand to him.
It was obvious this girl was important and he was scared for her. Maybe she was the illegitimate daughter of James, not mentioned in the family history?
It was funny of them to think that just because the royal family didn't like the youngest prince and was wary of him all the time, they wouldn't check the background of the girl.
The girl he had heard about definitely didn't look like this.
They were really testing their luck, weren't they? They know that he hates their entire bloodline, and even after that, they dare to play such an underhanded trick. Should he just snap her neck since they were thinking of fooling him? Sebastian glances at James briefly before looking at the innocent girl in front of him.
It doesn't matter to him. It wasn't like he was marrying to fall in love with this or any human. This was a formality that he was doing under his grandfather's force, all because he wanted that throne.
