Married To The Mad Vampire Lord novel Chapter 484

Chapter 484: The reaper’s message

"Sofia is inside my belly. How can Sofia understand now that I didn’t mean to eat her, papa? I want to vomit her real quick, but vomit doesn’t want to come."

Had this been under normal circumstances, Rohan would have laughed at his son’s savage yet innocent remarks, but it was with a strong sheer of will that he kept himself calm, without showing how worried he was about Angel carrying the infection of the rogue.

The infection of the rogue only happened to certain kinds of creatures who had strong immunity to the venom, but not enough to fight off the corruption. Instead of turning them completely rogue or allowing the corruption to spread to their heart, it only affected one part of the body, which caused the rogue side to be triggered whenever they became hungry, just like a half-rogue. However, if they got bitten again by a rogue, it would heighten the infection into a full-blown corruption, just like how it had happened to Rohan in the past.

Rohan only forced a smile as he pulled off the boy’s shirt. "Sofia’s soul will understand that you ate her because you were hungry. Now, let me see your arm." Rohan removed the arm from the sleeve, and he cursed under his breath at what he saw.

Angel looked down at his arm as well and said quietly, "Uncle Rav bite me like that. What happened to him, papa? Why did he bite and tear my hand?"

Angel’s arm was not healing at the normal fast pace at all. The large missing flesh was still gone, and the wound had turned red around the bite mark with black spots that showed the signs of the rogue infection. Though his heart still beat normally, Rohan could sense that the bite had already affected him in the way he would have wanted to avoid. The fact that Angel had turned rogue enough to tear Sofia to pieces and eat from her was a clear indication that he had gotten the infection.

"Will he also turn?" came Evenly’s quiet question, her eyes not hiding the fear in them. Rav would not forgive himself if anything happened to Angel, and she feared even the duke might want to take it out on him.

Rohan’s fist tightened at his side. "If you mean like the way Rav turned, the answer is no. But he will turn whenever he becomes hungry and then become normal when he gets full." That was how his own condition had also been in the past. But what really made Rohan angry right now was the fact that all this could have been avoided had he killed Rav the moment he realized his heart was turning corrupt. Yet, he hadn’t had the heart for it, and because he had believed they would find a way to help cure him.

Even now, he still couldn’t bring himself to put the blame on Rav for biting his son and giving him the rogue infection.

"Papa, I don’t want to eat another person again," Angel muttered, looking up at his father’s eyes, whose face had grown grim.

"You won’t. We will find a way to stop that from happening once I find your mother," Rohan said, to which Angel’s brows pulled together and he asked,

"Where is mama?"

Evenly, who was standing awkwardly to the side, unable to ask how they would help Rav after seeing the bite had also affected Angel, heard the boy’s question, and she realized she hadn’t set eyes on Belle since last night, when all this had happened.

Rohan was parting his lips to speak when a sound came from beside the fireplace in the room, causing them to look in that direction, where a folded coat suddenly dropped to the floor out of nowhere.

Rohan slowly put his son on his feet, making sure not to touch his injured arm, and then he walked around the bed to the fireplace. He crouched down, taking the black coat in his gloved hands, a deep frown forming on his face when suddenly something dropped from inside the coat to the floor.

Rohan’s eyes fell on the white-stoned bracelet he had given his wife, now lying on the floor. He picked it up, his head turning around as if trying to find who had dropped it there. Cordelia had not carried any of these when she was posing as his wife, she didn’t even know about the bracelet.

It had been with Isa when she was replaced. Rohan’s heart gave a leap, and even before he could wonder how this had gotten here, another paper fell again in front of him. Rohan automatically reached for it. He unfolded it and saw that it was a map, and on the map, a certain place was circled with charcoal.
