Chapter 174: Dangerous game (2)
"The queen enters."
"What does she want now?" Darius muttered.
Darius leaned back on his chair, watching the servants rush out of the room as Vivienne entered. He noticed her eyes searching the room for a woman she believed was in his company.
How disappointing it had to be for her that he was alone.
"What do I owe for this visit? After our last talk, I thought you would want to avoid me. What has your father sent you to do now?" Darius wondered. He still failed to believe this was all Vivienne’s idea.
"You must stop thinking this has anything to do with my father and our last talk did not end so badly. I thought we had a little understanding that I was not going to sit quietly anymore. I have a little gift for you. Consider it as me making peace between us," Vivienne said, taking a seat on the table before him.
Darius didn’t like the sound of this. "A gift? The last time you said you had a gift for me, you threw something at my head. I am not in the mood to argue with you. I have urgent matters to take care of."
Vivienne looked down at the papers spread across the table and noticed most of them were about attacks. "I am the queen," she said after Darius started to collect them. "I should know what occurs in my kingdom. Wasn’t this brought to our attention long ago? It is getting out of hand now."
Darius continued to collect all of the papers to put them away. "It is under control. This is simply another reason why I should go forward with my plan to round all of them up and put them in a closed area so they don’t live amongst us. We could take their blood as we like."
