Loved By a Vampire King

Both Cedric and Ayra became stunned after Oscar's meaningless demand. Ayra narrowed her stare at Oscar who was appearing quite dull and idly. Sitting on his lap, Ayra could sense that his veins were battling to show up because of his excessive anger that he felt at that particular moment.

His grip on Ayra's waist tightened subconsciously. His guard around her became highly alerted as if he wasn't going to spend a single moment distracting himself into anything else.

Oscar subconsciously glanced at Cedric's grip on Ayra. A smile formed on his lips when he figured out that he had targeted the right person. Cedric's words came out arrogantly,

" What do you mean? Don't beat around the bush! "

Oscar composed himself powerfully. Looking up at Cedric who was becoming anxious because of his request, Oscar blurted out in a breath,

" I want someone to sacrifice herself willingly for a particular dark ritual. I want your wife to comply me in completing the ritual. Since you have so many women around, this shouldn't be a problem. Besides, her soul sensed powerful and useful for me. Why don't you give her to me? We can get your mother back, Cedric."

Cedric's jaw clenched after Oscar's words. His body shook lightly when his scared past was mentioned. A pain that he buried deep inside his heart was awakened again.

Ayra looked up at him nervously. Initially she could feel that his mother was his biggest weakness. If Oscar spoke out the truths, would he really ask her to sacrifice for his mother?

Ayra wandered as her heart thudded in anticipation. On the other side, Oscar was looking at them with a victorious smile. He knew that no matter what happened between them, Cedric would never disagree with him when it concerns his late mother.

Cedric helped Ayra to stand up at first, then he got up and began to approach Oscar slowly. His eyes intensely looked through Oscar who was slightly panicked by his sudden proximity.

Giving him no chance to dodge, Cedric came in front of Oscar. Bending over to him to place his hand between his both sides, Cedric spoke with a deep voice as his fingers tapped over the handles dramatically,

" Who brainwashed you so well, father? Would you like to give me his name?"

Oscar was startled by his words. He glanced up at Cedric stupifiedly before uttered through his gritted teeth,

" Cedric!!!! Don't change the main topic!! She is your mother and gave up on her life for you. No one brainwashed me. I am capable enough to figure out everything on my own. Jasmine can be back by this sacrifice. I can't believe that she has given birth to an unfilial son like you."

Cedric brust into laughter before withdrawing his leaning figure from Oscar's sitting figure. Shaking his head helplessly, Cedric commented trying to bring some sense back into his father's head,

" Now it's surreal for me to understand that someone has convinced you to believe that my mother can be back. Father, you have become too old to distinguish between truth and lies."

Oscar still protested letting out another growl impatiently,

" Yes, she can. I saw the future. She can be back. You just ask this girl to sacrifice her. I will take care of the other rituals. I have done everything to get her back. My wife has sacrificed herself for you, Cedric. Now it's time to repay you back through your wife."

Cedric only felt amused after his words. The more he heard, the more he became curious to know who was the person that manipulated his father so well. Cedric let out a dark chuckle and walked to the other side of room.

Without showing any emotions anymore, he rebuked sharply,

" Deaths can be back, father. There is no spell or ritual in the world that can make someone alive from death. Whoever promised this to you, he is just making a use of you. If there was a way to get back my mother, I wouldn't have spent my entire childhood lonely. I hold all the dark powers. Who do you think that more powerful than me?"

Cedric's words brought some sense back in Oscar's brain. Although his words were reasonable, Oscar wanted to give his last try. Oscar barked out anxiously,

" Still.. still..I want to give it a try.. Cedric, ask her to repay your debt."

This time, Cedric looked at his way coldly. His face clouded in anger as he emphasized his words slowly,

" She isn't an item to sacrifice, father. Even if you tell me that the entire world has promised you to return our mother exchange of her, I will not give her to you because my mother is gone. A death can't be back in life no matter how powerful creatures we are. Now tell me! Who promised you?"

No matter whatever Cedric said, Oscar refused to believe that Jasmine couldn't be back anymore. He didn't answer to his question. Instead his voice became more louder and arrogant,

" NO!! You are lying!! Jasmine can be back unless you cooperate with me. You are just fooling me to save this woman. Let me tell you! If you don't give her to me, I am going to reclaim the throne from you."

Cedric laughed hard and replied with a sneer,

" Sure! I would like to see who is going to accept you as their king. The jury will never approve someone who is mentally unstable. And father, please stop your madness. You should better start praying that our future daughter would reborn in form of mother."

Oscar ignored his words and continued shouting,

" Cedric!! Listen to me!! Jasmine.. Jasmine will be back..Just accept my demands..She can be back.."

Cedric stopped paying attention on his madness. He walked back to Ayra and replied after leading her out of the room,

" Once you're done with yelling, leave the castle father. No matter who is brainwashing you, ask him to come and face me directly."

Cedric came out of the room after saying his last words. As they came out, Ayra couldn't help but asking from her curiosity,

" Your mother.. Can she really come back to life?"
