Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord-Chapter 512 - The Thin Lines Are Fading

512 The Thin Lines Are Fading

Damien checked the address twice before he knocked on the door. It was opened by a woman with silver hair and silver eyes.

Her face had a small frown as she noticed the red eyes of Damien.

‘What do you need, vampire?” she hissed when Damien tilted his head and looked behind her.

There were a bunch of other witches who were in the middle of performing a ritual and looking at him with a frown.

“This house did not belong to you anymore. It is part of human territory now. You have to shift to your territory and let the young man live here.” he said without any emotion when the witch turned to look inside and an elderly man came forward.

“And what does it have to do with you?” he asked with a frown when Damien smiled, “I am from the council. New rules were made to bring equality and I am asked to check on the follow up plans. So, everything had to do with me.”

“........” the witcher who was about to perform a spell paused and sighed.

“Then do it from the start. No! Forget it, come with us.” he said as he held Damien tightly and then flew in the air.

Dami, who was about to punch the man , paused and held his hands tightly when they were too high for him to let go.

.....

“Where are you taking me?” They were high enough but they could still see men and women working in the market, people roaming around and kids playing at a distance.

“If I would have given you excuses, you would not have believed in them. No vampire or human would believe in us.” the witcher scoffed as he kept flying but then paused in the center of the town.

“Can you see the arrows there? These three lines divide the empire into three parts but as you can see…”

“The new assigned area belongs to someone else!” It is not only for humans but every area has people living on them and it is hard for them to leave everything around.

“If the council wants to help, it either has to empty all the areas so that moving could be possible. Or just let us live where we are living. We are living without hiding our identities there for ages. And no human living there minded. In fact, they come to us for help. Like healing their ailments or helping them with making furniture and all.

We earn by that only.” he explained as he showed him many places where others were fighting for lands telling them it belonged to them while others asked them to empty the house. It was all a mess.

“It would not have happened if witches would not have waged a war!” he commented in a cold tone when the witcher laughed.

“It did not matter to me who started it and who ended it. For me all three races are similar. I have grown up with humans. My mother was adopted in a human family and I never had bad blood with vampires since I hardly met them.”He took Damien back who was now looking at the witch with surprise.

“A long ago, they fought and they are still continuing it without even knowing the reason. Do you know why witches attacked the previous lord?”

“........” he let go of Damien as they reached back to the front of his house.

“You are a guest, you can come in and have dinner with us before leaving.” he offered with a smile when Damien shook his head.

He turned to leave but instead of going back to the palace, he roamed around the roads.

He saw many shops run by witches in this area. Many humans were visiting their shops freely. Surprisingly, he even saw a man with silver hair with a woman with golden hair and their kids have silver hair like the man.

They were roaming in the market holding hands and smiling ear to ear.

They paused when Damien stood in front of them but soon passed him when they realized he was just in daze and did not mean any harm.

“Do you need some blood, my lord?” a young boy approached the dazed Damien who finally looked at him with a raised brow.

“My mother is ill. If you pay for the food and medicine, you can have my blood.” offered the young boy who was looking malnourished himself.

Damien sighed and took out a few coins from his pocket and passed it to the young boy who refused to take them for free.

“My mother would be angry and would not believe that someone gave them to me for free, you have to take something in exchange.” he said adamantly, “you can have my amulet then.” he took out a red pendant and gave it to Damien.

“Who gave it to you?” It looked like the one Hazel wore always. He had asked, and she had not brought it from any of the shops but it had been with her since she was born.

“My mother!” He counted the coins and was ready to leave when Damien held him, “I want to come and see your mother to make sure that you are not lying.” the young boy blinked but nodded his head as he held Damien;s hands who was stunned for a second.

They went to the market and brought a lot of food and medicines and then followed the boy to a desolate path where he stopped in front of a small desolate house.

He opened the door and asked Damien to come in.

In the room there was a woman who looked young. Her hair was golden but her eyes were silver showing that she was a halfling too.

She was sitting on her rocking chair near the fire. She smiled when she looked at the child but paused looking at Damien.

“Mother, he is a kind person who helped us with medicines.” Damien scanned the area as if he was looking for a sign.

The amulet had a mark so similar to Hazel that he did not think that it was a coincidence.

“Honey, would you bring water for me, please?’ asked the woman when the young boy nodded his head hard and left with hurried steps.

“Tell me why have you followed my son?” she asked in a cold voice even though it came cracked.

“I didn’t mean any harm. I am only here to know from where you got this amulet.” the woman bit her lips as if he had caught her red handed.

“That is mine. You should return it. You can take everything else if you want.” she tried to stand up when he noticed the burnt marks on her skin and felt her limping.

“I am a council member. It would do you no good if you try to hide things from me. You are a witch and you know how sensitive the matter could be!” the woman frowned as she closed her eyes and they turned blue.

“I am a halfling with no powers except changing the color of my eyes and I had harmed no one, officer. Give me the amulet back.”
