Loved By a Vampire King

Athena waited for her initial answer but the boy was in daze rather than speaking something. He couldn't help himself from stammering or jolting vigorously. His expression remained blank and undefined that Athena couldn't read through it. 

Athena took another concerned attempt stepping ahead,

 " You aren't not unwell, are you?"

Abruptly, Jasper took a step back at her approach. His face alternated between nervousness and shy as he managed to say wiping his forehead by his own sweated palm,

" No.. Princess.. I..I'm okay."

He cleared his throat loudly before throwing back a question avoiding her confused gaze,

" Do you need anything from me?"

This time, Athena fell in dilemma and chewed down her lips in contemplation. She didn't had any ounce of idea that how would she initiate the usual topic. Suddenly her mind came up with a savage plan as she replied tugging a soft smile on her lips that had started giving him electro shock in his heart,

" Well Jasper, I have been craving for human blood since last night. I have noticed that there aren't any packs left in our storage after distributing among all. Do you have any alternative solution to quest my thrust?"

Jasper's face scrunched up in agony as he heard that she was craving for blood. He mentally cursed himself for being impulsive and not paying attention to the royal members.It would still take some time to receive their required blood packs again.

He replied apologising keeping his eyes glued down on the ground,

" Pardon.. me.. Princess.. But we are really out of bloods right now.."

Then he suggested nervously,

" How about you pay a visit into the forests to hunt any deers? It may satisfy you momentarily. I will try my best to find bloods for you."

Athena bit her lips together tightly. That was not the expected answer that she was waiting for. Thus she replied waving her hands earnestly,

" No, thanks. I only need human blood now. You know that our crave for human blood is far more fiercer than other blood. I.. I just hope that I won't loose control from myself after holding back the desire for so long."

Jasper was left with panicked. He never ever imagined that he wouldn't be able to fulfil Athena's first request to him.

Athena was satisfied after seeing him in silence. She smiled inwardly before asking cunningly,

" But does brother have any pet to drink the blood? Tell me if he has, I can ask him to lend it for a day only."

Jasper didn't pay attention to her skeptical gaze and replied casually,

" No, Lord has no pet."

Athena frowned at her answer and asked again more attentively,

" Then, how about any human from our world? Aren't there many humans live with us near the borders? Can you take me to them please Jasper?"

Jasper shook his head instantly disapproving,

" No, princess. We aren't allowed to harm the humans who stay with us. Therefore Lord really has no pet or human around except Lady Esme. We don't take humans here randomly."

Athena's mind stirred up with questions and curiousness as she continued dissolving him in her trap of words,

" But we should at least keep some humans as pet here. Look at myself now. Here, I'm craving for blood but we won't have left anything to drink. I will ask brother to take some precautions about this state. I'm sure that many vampires face this critical situation too. "

Jasper finally looked up and replied in a matter of fact,

" I assume that it won't work, princess. Last time Lord had to fight with High Emperor for granting the permission of bringing back Lady in our world. Moreover it was against Lady's wish. At the end, we had to kidnap her. I assume that Lord won't permit it to avoid further chaos."

Athena's eyes went wide in shock and astonishment. She never knew the real story behind their sudden marriage. Her knees went numb and frozen as she kept staring at Jasper blankly as if she had heard her death sentence just now.

She murmured under her breath blankly, 

" Serena!! Esme!!" 

INSIDE THE CASTLE, 

After completing a fresh bath, Esme stepped out of the bathroom wrapping a towel against her smooth skin. She came infront of the dresser intending to apply some liquid as her mind flashed up with the suggestion given by Ron. 

He asked her to look through Aaron's library once! 

She contemplated in her thoughts before hurrying up her speed. Aaron already had forbidden her to go outside, then would he allow her to use his library? 

At the thought of seeing Ayra once, she flashed away all the negative possibilities and paid attention to put on a plain gown. 

Soon after, she made his way towards his study at the east corner of the floor. She paused at the doorstep and vaguely heard some noises. Without wasting anymore time, she pushed open the door before felling in flabbergasted whereas a maid rushed calling out behind but paused at midway, 

" Lady.. Lady...wait.."

Esme's face sank and surfaced with embarrassment. Inside the study, Aaron was holding an important meeting with the minister of different provinces as they all turned their gaze towards her. 

Esme found that each one of them had taut and mascular figure along with a cold face. Their expression flashed with surprise after watching her here and nervously glanced back at Aaron. On the other side, Aaron was seated at the middle crossing his legs together as one of his arm rested against the edge of the couch. His cold yet domineering aura was engulfing the whole area as he kept his face stern and expressionless. His aura was so strong that it was clearly giving the ministers in unknown fear and pressure. 

Well from their perspective, Aaron always secured his privacy and was never liked to be bothered by anyone especially at meeting times.But they actually never found it bothering or rude as it was the first term of becoming a mighty king who keep his outside and private life separates. 

It took a while to regain her sense as she spoke out abruptly, 

" I.. I apologise. I didn't know". 

Before she could pushed off the door again, her action was interrupted by a domineering tone ordering her loudly, 

" Don't go. Come over here."

Esme paused and glanced at his way. His cold eyes flashed with the hint of softness as he invited her in. For a moment, Esme felt like she was in delusion. 

Now what does this man want from her during his meeting time? 

She clutched the door lock hardly but didn't dare to step back. Thus she slowly walked in and closed the door from inside. 

Aaron's lips formed into a satisfied smile as he patted the spot beside him lovingly,

" Come and sit. We are already finished here."

Esme nervously looked at those ministers who were all in dumbstruck state as she slowy maid her way towards his couch before plopping down. 

Aaron smirked at her blushing face as he commanded turning his attention towards the minister, 

" Let's continue. Where were we?" 

One of the minister coughed dryly before speaking respectively, 

" Ahm. Pardon Lord. We are continuing." 

All the ministers nodded comprehensively as they continued explaining the recent reports regarding their own states. They seemed shy as they saw the sudden display of affection ahead. 

On the couch, Esme looked embarrassed as she kept playing with her own fingertips.Later,Aaron offered her a glass of tea as he played with her long strand of hairs casually. 

She glanced at his playful action warningly but the man was non bothered. Thus she let him whatever he wanted to do as she devoured the tea like water gulping down quick and fast. 

The ministers were so shocked that they couldn't kept their eyes off from them. They showed an excellent example of loving couple who were teasing and playing with each others. 

But soon after, they were forced to look down after receiving a death glare from Aaron. 

How dare they keep looking at my wife like wolf ? 

They all quickly finished their reports and hurriedly retreated themselves from there holding breathe. After their departure, Esme spoke angrily, 

" Can you stop being more childish?What were you doing in front of them?" 

Aaron shrugged nonchalantly before gazing through her eyes, 

" What did I do? I was playing with my wife not any casual woman. Let them see how much they want." 

He continued leaning closer with a smirk, 

" Moreover we weren't playing those wild games like last night, wifey. What are you so shy about?" 

Esme glared at him hatefully before pounding a fist into his chest, 

" You.. you.. shameless.. pervert.. "

Aaron laughed loudly enduring her attacks and enjoyed the view of her crimson face. Esme huffed and wanted to return as she got up angrily. 

Aaron also intended to trail her off as he lifted up himself from the couch still laughing. As she stepped few steps ahead towards the door, a loud thud echoed in her ears and she jolted turning back fast. 

Her whole body froze as her eyes met the man falling on the ground was holding his chest painfully. 

She quickly rushed over to his fallen figure and knelt down asking anxiously, 

" Aaron.. what happened? What happened? Are you feeling pain? Please say something." 

Despite being her continuous questions, he kept quite as his whole face scrunched up in deep pain arousing from his every blood cells. 

Esme didn't know when her own eyes teared up as she asked again and again, 

" Please don't joke around with me. Please.. What happened! Please talk to me, Aaron.. please.. please.. don't joke.. or... or I will leave you.."
