Married To The Mad Vampire Lord novel Chapter 473

Chapter 473: To kill him_Part 2

"H-hurt...! M-make it stop, Enny... my hand..." Angel sobbed, his small voice breaking with each word, thick with pain and tears.

"P-Papa... it hurts!" he cried, his breath hitching as another sob tore from him. "It’s... it’s going inside... my body..." he whimpered, trembling, his words choked and uneven as fear and confusion tangled in his voice, not understanding why the pain was worse than anything he had ever felt.

"Hurry up, Evenly!" Rohan urged, the sound of his son’s voice tugging at something deep inside him. He wanted to be there for his boy, but he couldn’t risk releasing Rav and letting him attack anyone else. There was no way to simply knock out a rogue, once turned, the only way to stop one was by killing it.

"Make sure you cut away every dark bite mark of the rogue." Said Rohan, turning over his shoulders and Evenly nodded before she spoke to the boy who was staring at the knife she held fearfully.

"I’ll make it stop, Angel. Try to stay still for me," she cooed softly, her voice trembling as she fought her rising panic. She steadied herself against the pain she was about to cause by cutting into his flesh. She had never done such a thing before, but Evenly forced her shaking hands to move. She swiftly and hurriedly made the cut, and almost immediately Rohan’s next words came, urgent in it command:

"Let him bleed out the bad blood. Find something to tie around the upper part where he was bitten. Hurry up!" His voice carried desperation.

"Yes... I will," Evenly replied, raising Angel’s arm and letting the dark, tainted blood flow out.

"Enny, I feel like...I want to sleep real quick..." Came the small voice of the boy and soon his cries grew faint until they faded entirely. He went limp, unconscious, just as she tore her hair ribbon free and tied it tightly around his arm above the bite to stop the infection from spreading to his heart.

"Is he supposed to fall unconscious?" she asked the duke, worried and sickened, as she had never before seen or treated someone who had been bitten by a rogue. She had heard about it and knew that a single bite meant one would turn, but since Rohan had instructed her to cut it away, perhaps he knew what he was doing. Still, the boy falling unconscious was concerning.

"It’s much better if he’s unconscious than awake. It will take away his pain. Can you help me get him inside?" he asked, wanting the vampiress and his son to be out of sight before he decided what to do with the rogue.

"Yes, I’ll get him into the house once I make the knot tight," replied Evenly, completely oblivious to the fact that the rogue was her man.

How had a rogue gotten in? And where was Rav? Evenly wondered, her hands shaking slightly as she tightened the knot. Rav had told her to wait inside and that he’d return soon, but she’d felt restless, the look on his face before leaving had worried her more than she’d admitted to herself. His eyes looked strange and his body temperature.

She had really wanted to stay inside and wait for him to come back when she thought she heard a girl scream. That had been enough to make her come out looking for him inside the castle and to look for where the scream had come from.

She had been searching around the castle when she thought she heard Angel’s voice outside and rushed toward it. She hadn’t expected what she found, finding the boy bleeding and bitten. Now she couldn’t stop herself from wondering how it had entered when the castle grounds were surrounded by high walls. Unless... it came through the broken fence at the back, where it was connected to Grimvale forest.

Evenly began to lift Angel when a savage growl tore through the fog behind them, the sound of the rogue still fighting, likely against Rohan, and she stopped to ask.

"My Lord, have you seen Rav? Can you reach him and tell him to come out here? I... I can’t reach him through our mind link, and I’m beginning to worry. What if the rogue attacked him somewhere inside the castle?" Her voice shook as she tried to lift Angel higher, her fear of the rogue attacking Rav impossible to hide.

"I can’t reach him," came Rohan’s grim, simple reply, and Evenly’s heart twisted into a knot of dread. She couldn’t reach him too! Where was he and how could he have left the castle without telling her where he was going? Didn’t he know she would be worried and restless?
