Married To The Mad Vampire Lord novel Chapter 401

Chapter 401: Wiping Memories

"What a plan you humans are forming up behind our backs," taunted the vampire duke, his voice echoing in the high-ceilinged hall as he addressed them casually. "I couldn’t help but overhear your flimsy plan about my family, though I must say you seem to be underestimating the powers of a female vampire and a baby. Apprehending them is not easy, you know; it’s harder than hunting a lion."

Before any of the humans could recover from the shock of seeing a vampire with wings break in on them while they were plotting against his kind, the vampire began to untie the coat he had used to secure the baby in front of him like a carrier. They watched him hold the vampire boy and touch something at his back so the same black wings appeared from the child’s back, catching them off guard for the second time.

"Now, son, you can feed and wipe off as many memories as you can in the hall," Rohan said to his son, who was eagerly flapping his newly released wings and grinning happily as he flew in circles, his little booted feet kicking and flinging about.

Hearing Rohan’s words to the little boy was enough to make the humans snap back to their senses and realized they were unguarded against a vampire who came broke in on their plans. "Alert the guards immediately!" shouted one of the officials as they all began to back away from the window side.

The guards soon rushed in through the double doors to stand in front of the king as the vampire and the baby descended to the floor. The guards held out their stake and sword to protect their king against the vampires.

"Your son?" the king said, his brows drawing together as he and the others heard the vampire call the baby his son, not to mention the striking resemblance between the two they could notice at this moment. Wasn’t the baby red-eyed before? How come he has black eyes just like the mad vampire? The king, like everyone in the hall who had noticed the little vampire, couldn’t help but be astonished at the change.

"Hmm," Rohan hummed nonchalantly as he stepped across the broken glass on the floor, his boots making crushing sounds with every step as he walked toward the humans who stood ready with weapons, though not a single one of them could harm a hair on his body.

"My son, and you are about to know him more as my son, because you have someone of ours. My lovely wife and his dear mother," he said as he came to a stop in front of one of the pointed wood pieces, the tip touching his chest as he looked toward the king with a smirk playing on his face at the shock registering on their faces as his words sank in.

"Y-you mean you had a son with her? She has not only killed my daughter, but she has also betrayed our land!" shouted the marquis, who was cowering behind the palace soldiers.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... why is every human making such a big deal out of the fact that my wife and I love each other enough to have a son?" Rohan mused, tilting his head slightly as his eyes roamed over the astonished and disgusted faces of the humans, as if the very thought of a vampire child was both repulsive and unthinkable to them. He didn’t like that they dared hold such an offensive look right in front of his little son.

"You must have forced the poor girl to bear your disgusting son. What a monster you are to—" one of the officials began to spit out in indignation, but Rohan didn’t so much as move from where he stood. He simply raised his hand toward the man and curled his fingers inward. Immediately, the nobleman choked on his words as an invisible hand gripped his throat.

The man clawed at his neck, trying to breathe, but no air came. His face flushed red as he struggled, and everyone else, though unable to see what was strangling him, understood at once what was wrong. It was the vampire’s doing!

Horrified, they stepped back, the realization sinking in that this creature was far more than what they had known about his kind.

"Nobody gets away with calling my son disgusting." Rohan twisted his hand sharply, and the man’s neck snapped with a sickening crack. His body dropped lifelessly to the floor, and the gravity of the situation settled like a stone on the rest of them.

"Kill them both!" ordered the king to his men after witnessing one of his officials get killed easily.

At the king’s order, the soldier, whose weapon was already pressed against Rohan’s chest, thrust it forward with trembling hands, driving it straight into him. The man looked relieved as he noticed the dark blood beginning to ooze from the vampire he had impaled, but his relief was short-lived when he saw the vampire smiling without flinching or collapsing to the floor to his death. Quickly, he pulled out the weapon and thrust it in again.

"Ouch, that hurt," Rohan clicked his tongue as he looked down at the sword and stake that had gone into his chest, hoping that his mark with his wife was not working at that moment so she would be spared from feeling it.

"Wh-why isn’t he dying?" asked one of the officials with widened terrified eyes.

"Not so fast, human," he remarked with a murderous glint as he twisted the sword and used it to cut off the man’s head, blood splashing across his face. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
