“You can take my carriage and ask the coachman to send you to the nearest physician.” only that was what he could do to them.

Without waiting for them to thank him, he walked away.

He ran his hands into his hair when he searched the whole building but did not find her anywhere.

Lucian was still sitting on the ground with a lost expression on his face. He really wanted to kill this guy._.

But he knew that if Bella would come to know about it, she was going to be mad again.

“You are lucky that she had given you another chance or I would have killed you without a doubt.

Now use this chance well and start a new life as she had told you or I will come and haunt you again.” Rafael muttered as he got the hold of the horse at the entrance of the inn and rode away from there.

He still had a silver hope that she would be back in the palace. But as soon as he reached there, the place was full of councilmen and knights.

“My lord, the body of lord Vincent fell from the air just an hour ago.

We all looked around but were not able to find who did it. The council think that it was the doing of witches and closing the case since only they could fly.” Just as he entered the palace, he was followed by many nobles.

Though they hated a vampire to be among them, if following him for a few days could get them the position of the emperor, they would gladly do it.

They looked at him as if he was a statue made of gold coins and rare gems. There was nothing but greed in their eyes.

He could sense the smell of greed from their filthy bodies and was still worried about Bella, so the annoyance took better of him.

His eyes turned redder as he turned to them, “oh! Since the seat of the emperor is empty, then we should speed up the process of choosing the emperor then.

An empire without a ruler couldn’t go for long.” all of their faces changed expressions.

They looked so relieved and satisfied with his reply. See, what would a vampire know. All they needed to do was to give him some respect and he would bid to their wishes.

They all exchanged meaningful glances as they looked at each other and then covered their face with a grave look as if they were hurt.

“Sigh! If only the crown prince had not made this grave mistake.

We have even thought of giving him another chance but now that he is dead and the emperor had committed a felonious crime of thinking about starting another war. We are not left with much choice.” they shook their heads to show their helplessness and how they all were upset.

Rafael smiled warmly. His eyes twinkled as he nodded his head too. He looked no less than an angel with that white jade skin and that sweet smile on his face.

Just one look at many ladies fell for him. They held their breaths when he looked in their direction.

“But what would be the criteria and when we.. cough cough.. I mean the new emperor would be chosen.

I am only asking since there should be transparency. I did not want another person to raise a finger on my lord. Since peace would only be there when everyone would agree with you.

I am sure the lord would not want another reason to create resentment among humans. Right?” It was a clear threat. Even a fool could feel that he was trying to put pressure on Rafael.

Thinking that he was nothing but another emperor of a vampire region that needed humans for his existence so he would not be able to show much power if told about his weakness.

Thinking that they would be able to control him by reminding him about war and gain what they wanted under the pretense of care for the empire, they smiled.

“Of course, I understand. I understand all of you very well.

As you said the empire can not stay without an emperor for long. So how about we not delay the matter anymore and choose the new emperor this instant?” Rafael raised a brow and asked with the same warm and sweet smile on his face.

He looked harmless through and through to the person who did not know him personally but the same could not be said about the council member who stood up with fear.

They could feel their hair rising. They looked at the bunch of fools with pity. But soon it changed with a worried look when they realize that if Rafael would kill all of them they would have more work in their laps.

“That, my lord.. Why don’t we talk about it in a meeting first?” Edward tried to intervene when he gained the scornful and gazes full of hatred from the nobles who looked no less than hyenas who would pounce on him and eat him clean.

If only he could tell them that he was only trying to save their life. His master was in a mood to hunt and kill. Sigh! Foolish human. In front of their greed, they are not able to see the threat of getting dead that was so clear.

“Why do we need to wait! My lord is right. If we can decide the new emperor right now, why should we prolong the process? You didn’t need to head to them, my lord. So, what if the criteria of choosing the new emperor?”
