Rejected By My Mate, Chosen By Fate – Chapter 78
My teeth are chattering in fear as the situation unfolds before me. “Open this door right now or we’ll have to break it down.” I heard Sir Carter threaten from the other side of the door. “So you’re a stowaway, huh?” The vampire in front of me questioned before caressing my face softly. “Don’t touch me.”I snapped and slapped his hand off before turning my face away in humiliation. Doesn’t he have any decency? He smirked and in the blink of an eye, he left from where I stood and was by a wardrobe. He grabbed a robe and put it on and though the fact that he wasn’t naked anymore was relieving, it was actually the least of my problems.
“Are you just going to leave me here and in the middle of our fun?” The girl on the bed finally spoke as she sat up, covering herself with the covers. From her glowing pale skin, I could tell she was also a vampire. I saw the bite mark on her neck, his fangs had left two bloodied holes on her neck and the sight of it almost made me want to throw up. It was shocking though, I had absolutely no idea that vampires could drink from other vampires.
“You don’t have to get so possessive, Scarlet, you know very well what you mean to me.” He said sharply and his tone gave me shivers. What is he gonna do to me? More importantly, how do I get out of this?
’s the use? I’m going to die anyway so I might as well just give up now.

his gaze landed on me, he glared at me so hard that I would have dropped dead if looks could kill.
ia? Considering that her soon to be stepson is probably older than her. This is such a mess.
en’t the best of friends but something puzzled me though. If this man protecting me is really a prince, then isn’t Sir Carter supposed to show him more respect? Especially since Sir Carter seemed to be very loyal to the king.
isturbing question is, why on Earth is Prince Virgil protecting me? I’ve come to realize that vampires only do things for their own personal gain so I couldn’t help but wonder what P
o me and save both of our precious time.” Sir Carter said and my stomach twisted uncomfortably. This man is starting to seem more brutal than I had imagined, I really can’t help but notice that he seems to have a staunch dislike for the prince and for some reason, he isn’t even afraid to show it.
he other vampire feel like a fool because he kept staring daggers at Prince Virgil and I. Deep within, I began praying that Prince Virgil would not give me back to Sir Carter or rather, that he would not let the mean man take me back. I don’t care what Prince Virgil h
gh. “You seem to have forgotten your place Sir Carter so let me remind you. You’re nothing but a subject to the royal family, you’re no more than a servant and you will give me the respect I deserve whether you like it or not.” Prince Virgil said and Sir Carter feigned a shocked expression. Geez, who knew vampires were so dramatic but come to think of it, this is good because it’s stalling the inevitable and if Selene is kind enough, I’ll be able to get out of this mess unharmed.

and has refused to give her back. Even when I told him it was your order to take care of her.” Sir Carter explained and my dislike of him went up a notch.
nstantly turned to the prince’s direction, seemingly waiting for an explanation. “Brother, I think it’s obvious enough that he’s painting the truth.” Prince Virgil began calmly. Hold up, brother? Well this actually makes a lot more sense and is partially a relief but still, why didn’t Voithós tell me that the king has a brother? “You of all people should know just how cruel Carter can be, I mean look at the girl, she seems scared half to death. She ran to me for help and I couldn’t just send her away into the belly of a shark.” Prince Virgil explained while I just kept hoping that it would all turn out in my favor. “That is no excuse, the life of one little human should mean nothing to you, you already have so many pretty little dolls to play with, m
