In a while, the entire Dixon Palace was awake again. From the guards to maids, everyone had to wake up by the queen's order to find the uncivilized pup. Though so had their questions in their mind, they didn't want to oppose against Ayra's decision. Everyone knew the fates of those maids who tried to drift apart their relationship. Not only that, they dared to disrespect the queen. The batch of maids changed overnight after a painful trail in dungeon and was thrown in distant villages in where living or earning were difficult. Then everyone had their final realization that their king would show no rcy when it ca to their queen's well being.
Hugging the velvet shawl around her body, Ayra was pacing around the palace, used her high piercing voice to call the pup but nothing worked as if it had dissapared in the air. The pup was new to this palace and was so small that he had no knowledge about reality. He could be lost or hard easily. That's where Ayra's fear laid.
Two more maids ca back after searching the backyard and inford with a courteous bow,
" My Lady, he is nowhere."
Ayra's brows tensed in worry. She didn't know where to find him now. There was hope inside her mind that the pup might be hiding sowhere in the palace because of his sheer fear towards new palace.
Ayra growled out frustratingly. Thinking about the warning that Cedric had given her earlier, her stomach tightened into a knot in anticipation. She urged at the guards again,
" Keep searching for him. We can't loose him at any cost. The responsibility was given to this family. If sothing goes wrong with him, I am afraid that a lot of people will be executed for my mistake. I don't want that."
Ayra huffed for air and directed them to look for certain places. After she was left alone in the corridor, she decided to search on her own. Elizabeth was sleeping and considering Siemus who was going healing session still, she didn't want to bother any of them.
Walking away from the palace, Ayra crossed the garden by walking and without her consent, she had reached at the beginning of forest which wasn't a part of palace. Her eyes turned sharp and observant that fell upon every object that moved nearby. After few monts of scanning around, Ayra believed that her pup didn't co in this area and turned around to leave. Right at that mont, a little squeal echoed in her ears that ca from nearby bushes. Thanks to her vampire hearing, she had tracked that animalistic squeal at once and turned around in a whip.
Prying her eyes on the bushes sternly, she spotted her little brat pup who was playing and cheering happily. She wondered how did he end up coming so far away from the palace.
Relive flashed through her expression. Letting out a low growl, she rumbled making her way to grab him,
" Little brat! You are here! We almost went insane in finding you."
The pup noticed his master but instead of going over to Ayra, he began to run in opposite direction. Ayra's face paled once again and slipping out from her slippers, she began to chase after the pup growling lowly,
" Not again!"
The little chase of ga began again but this ti, she failed to notice that the sa way, she chased her rabbit back in her childhood. So histories keep repeating itselves.
Sowhere in Basarisk, a cetery's gate opened with a piercing creak, breaking the silence of peaceful night. The iron gate seed old and unused which was why it produced a piercing sound when soone had pushed it open. The cetery was entirely dark except a little torch was burning at a distant corner. Unfortunately the sky over cetery was still dark and it was no help to see the environnt around.
But nothing seed impossible to the man who just stepped in with his kingly aura. After safely invading into the haunted cetery, he fixed his semi - black coat with a frown. His burning eyes road across the land and when he was assured that no one was there except him, he continued his walk towards a particular direction.
After passing few tombstone which was buried probably thousand years ago, he stopped in front of a tomb which was old as usual. His eyes darkened and unknown tensions lurked from those demon eyes.
Cedric bent down to push away the stone. With a little effort of his strength, the stone was moved away from his path and the surface of coffin ca in this eye contact.
As if it was any natural thing to do, Cedric wasted no mont in jumping down beside the coffin box. Landing effortlessly beside the box, he circled it one more ti before extending his arm to push the slide open. While processing the entire thing, Cedric's eyes kept burning like lava and he made sure that his demon was on surface.
After a while of hesitation, Cedric pushed down the slide to look into the box. The mont, that box was opened, a gush of bad sll filled his nostrils as if it was buried uncountable years ago.
But that was the surprising part to him. Demon's dead body slled the worst and he was fully aware of it. The coffin box opened but there was no dead body or skeleton lying inside.
A surprising gasp escaped through his lips and his demon from surface dissapared in no mont. Standing beside the coffin like a numb body, Cedric clenched his fists together tightly.
