518 [Bonus chapter]
“Are you sure that this way would be good to keep them in control?” Edward was still not sure what Rafael wanted when he ca and shared his plan in the morning but he still supported him.
“No, that would help us in knowing what they are planning. I want to end this for once and all so that I can have a long vacation with my wife.”
“......” you are still thinking about vacation after starting a civil war! He was speechless as Rafael walked away caring about the glares and gritting teeth of other council mbers.
Anne was already waiting for him with Declan and she opened the portal of their palace for them.
He held Hazel in his arms as soon as he teleported in their room and kissed her. She softened at his touch and smiled.
“Did I worry about you?” she looked at his worried gaze and shook her head.
“No! I am just.. Afraid of..” but he kissed her again to let her words die in there.
“If he did not understand the truth even now, there is nothing to be sad about. I can not let anyone harm you, even if it is Damien.” she sighed as she closed her eyes, knowing well there was no way to argue as they looked at the distance.

.....
Diana waited for Damien to take her out today. Her eyes were fixed on the door as Dami ca with a young child and an old woman with him.
she smiled and nodded with gleaming eyes as she saw Damien taking out his fangs and biting the lower grade vampire who was guarding the door. The guard struggled but he was no match to the strength of Damien and soon fell on the ground with his limp body.
“Oh Damien! Have you not listened to at all.” she sighed but Dami only shook his head.
“There is no need to worry anymore.” he pushed the woman and the young child in the room who were bound by a rope and dragged them towards her cell.
“I have brought them. Now we can leave without worrying if Rafael would follow us. But if needed, I am ready to face him.” he assured his sister as he opened the door of her cell and she hugged him hard. But the mont she hugged him, her soft and worried expressions turned into a cruel and evil smirk.
She looked at the tied hostages with gleaming eyes as he let her go.
“Lets leave!” she nodded and they both dragged the mother of Hazel and the child out of the room.
As soon as they walked out Hazel and Rafael were standing there with a hardened face.
“I am glad that you ca by yourself and now I do not need to go looking for you.” Dami took a step closer to Rafael with a challenging look on his face as he smirked and titled his head, “do you know this woman, Hazel? No!”
Hazel narrowed her eyes at him when he pointed at the amulet worn by the child. “At least you know that amulet right. Your mother gave one to you too. Too bad, she had never died but only faked her death so that she could leave your father and you.” His voice was so cold, but the expression on the face of Hazel did not change.
She was looking at the woman as if she was trying to find similarity between them.
“Let and Diana go and start a new life away from here. As long as you do not stop us, I will not harm mother and child. But if you still want to put up a fight, I don’t mind that either.” his fangs were again peeking out of his mouth as Damien warned them but before Rafael could say anything..
“No!” Diana took a step forward, “in exchange for their lives, I want you to take as your wife.” she took out her fangs and touched the skin of the woman who winced with her long nails holding the shoulder of the old woman.
“Diana!” Damien exclaid when she smirked and took a step back, “sorry brother! I have told you that I love Rafael and would do anything for him. But I thank you for helping out when I was out of my wits and for this gift too. I promise to treat you well after I take Hazel’s place.” she assured him when he looked betrayed.
“What else did you lie?” asked Damien instead when Diana frowned. “Was the death of my mother an accident or you killed her intentionally?” he spat with his eyes narrowed at her face when she smirked.
“What do you think? Am i a headless chicken that they would be able to control . I tried hard to explain to my mother to support but she only gave hollow assurance. I was still enduring it but when she told that Hazel cared more for us than . That was it!
She was the one who forgot our bond first.” she accepted without a remorse on her face when Damien took a step back.
Diana was still smirking and turned to look at Rafael, “so, what if your answer hazel? Would you let your mother die for your selfish love or would you save them and sacrifice your happiness like a selfless woman as others think you are!”
Hazel smirked and then moved her hands when the rope binding them opened in an instant but it was enough to stop Diana.
She took out her fangs and pierced the skin of the old woman but just then she felt a strong push and flew towards the wall.
“What made you think that I would stand and watch when you threaten and my wife?” asked Rafael as he held her neck. “I have given you many chances, Diana. But you never learnt your lesson. Now only your death could bring us justice.”
