Loved By a Vampire King-Chapter 482 - Forget The Status Of Queen --- Part 1

Ayra's mouth agaped in horror when the warm fresh blood began to soak his robe. Panic rushed through her veins and she questioned him again, outstretching one of her shaking palm to place over his bleeding heart. Ayra lost her voice when she saw the blood dripping and muttered in anxiety,

" Grandpa! Please don't talk. Just tell me that how can I stop your bleeding!"

Tears formed on her vision when she understood that she had triggered the pain of his heart. Her guilt had no bounds and suddenly she forgot every other topics except his painful expression. Grandpa Atlus was holding a twisted face that turned black in pain. His breathing staggered whenever he tried to calm down.

After controlling his unstable stage for a while, Grandpa gripped Ayra's hand, urging her in an alarming voice,

" Do..not..stay..back...for...me..You..can.. find..the.. truth..on.. your own.. Just.. leave now.."

Ayra wasn't willing to leave his side since he had no close relative to take care of. After talking with him for a while, she knew that he wasn't that tough as per others words. Perhaps his pain and guilt led him to become an arrogant old who grieved all his life for not saving his daughter at right time.

Ayra hesitated trying to do something to stop his pain,

" But Grandpa..how can I.."

" JUST GO!", the old man roared, pleading through his eyes to ask her leave right now. Having no choice but to follow his command, Ayra swallowed down her words and stood up reluctantly to take back slowly.

Ayra took a final glance of Grandpa Atlus before striding downstairs to find Jessie out there. As soon as her back dissapared behind the door, Grandpa squeezed himself at a corner and whimpered painfully for a few more moments.

When the unbearable pain didn't show any sign of stopping, the old man finalized his mind to pray finally. Putting a fist over his bleeding heart, he muttered through his teary eyes repeatedly,

" I haven't revealed anything..I kept my promise.. Please forgive me..I didn't.."

He wasn't sure whether his voice was heard by them or not but he definitely prayed since the pain wasn't lifting down even a little bit.

Another part of mansion, Ayra had climbed down to find Jessie in downstairs. As the place was still vacant like before, she was much more relived and wandered around to search for her. Jessie who was hiding behind the door showed up in front of her. Her pair of eyes hopeful as it laid on Ayra who was looking around scanning carefully.

" Ayra, have you met him? Did Grandpa speak to you anything?", Jessie questioned in an anxious voice. She was also very expectant to know about her mother's grave. Though she held grudges against her, at the end it was her birth mother. Upon finding Jessie, Ayra was lot more relaxed. After getting so many informations from Grandpa Atlus, she was feeling suffocated in this mansion as if this walls would swallow her whole anytime.

Meeting the hopeful eyes of Jessie, Ayra's heart swarmed in pains. She wished that she had knew the truth but she had a faint that everything was depending on Cedric who had knowledge about Demons and perhaps the clue about how did his mother submitted herself to the demon.

Ayra breathed through her nose helplessly. Dropping her eyes down in guilt, she shook her head as no and murmured lowly,

" I..I am sorry, Sister Jessie.. Grandpa refused to speak about this but he has given me some hints. I promise that I will continue searching for it."

A flash of dissapointment appeared on Jessie's eyes but soon it was dissapared when Ayra sincerely promised that she would keep looking for her grave. After a long while, they had someone in their family who cared for them and Jessie could feel it through Ayra's expression. Hence she was not angered on Ayra and rather inspired in a soft voice,

" It's all right, Ayra. You have done already more than anyone else. Shall we go back now? I believe that Grandpa doesn't want us here."

A bitter smile formed on her lips when she remembered that how they weren't welcomed here even though she was his granddaughter. Ayra nodded with a sad smile and remembered how Grandpa urged her to go back.

Now their arrival was known by the master of this house, they didn't sneak anymore and decided to leave the mansion through the main entrance. The guards who were disrespectful to them at the beginning were horrified to see them as they had no clue about their sneaking in. After a round of argument with Jessie, the badass princess, Ayra managed to drag her out.

As they both reached near the carriage to climb up, Jessie noticed that Ayra was looking bit lost in her thoughts. Especially the way she was usually distracted, Jessie feared that her grandpa was too hard on her.

Jessie questioned out of concern,

" Ayra, is everything okay with you? What did Grandpa spoke about?"

Ayra was snapped back to reality. She was thinking about the man who shared same face like Cedric. Besides why no one knew about him especially Jessie or Isabella?

Ayra muttered back absentmindedly,

" It's nothing, Sister. It's just.. Grandpa looked too grounded in guilt and he.. he was in miserable state. I am just feeling sorry for your family and him.."

Jessie sighed looking down at her feet smiling. She vaguely remembered those times when Jasmine mentioned that how she missed her family, father badly. They were so little back then that she couldn't even help her mother a little.

Jessie suggested something cheekily after considering their frustrated memories,

" If you don't have objections..Can we go somewhere else before heading for the castle? I am sure, you will have a great time. Maybe we can forget about this bitter memories momentarily."

Ayra liked the idea but the mischievous glint on Jessie's eyes frightened her a little. She asked blinking at her questioning,

" Umm..But where are we going?"

Jessie flashed into a big grin and winked whispering out with a low chuckle,

" To the Inn. Let's forget the princess and Queen status for tonight."
