“Had they returned?” Hearing the sound of the carriages when Hazel was having a walk in the garden, she wondered if her happy days were coming to an end.

When she had returned from the ruined lands, she had thought she had to face them once again but to her surprise the palace was empty.

She had come to know that a distant cousin was getting married so they all went to attend her wedding.

How she forgot their presence and thought they would never come back but that was not the case now.

She continued to stare until the three carriages stopped in front of the entrance door of the palace and all three of them came out separately!

“Why have they taken different carriages?” traveling from one town to another takes a lot of time, the journey is lonely and tiring.

A company could make you feel much better yet they chose to come separately despite being a family!

“Do you not know my lady, Lady Scarlet has not talked to master Damien since the day he had saved you.

And the matter worsened when she was punished for that. She had been sent to handle the affairs of the territory after that where the fight between vampire and human is worse and more of the rogues are found there.

It only meant that she would take out all the anger on me now. Hazel pursued her lips knowing her future days were not going to be easy.

She took a step away to make sure that they would not see her. She did not want to get caught in an argument early in the morning and ruin her day.

Scarlet and Diana as a noble did not turn to look at her even if they noticed her presence and walked in with their head raised high but the same could not be said for the other one.







Damien snapped his head to her direction as soon as he came out. His face did not have that arrogant and aloof look like his mother and sister but a wicked grin that always gave Hazel an unsettling feeling in her heart.

“Let’s.. go and have breakfast. I am suddenly feeling hungry!” Taking two steps back, Hazel walked briskly towards her garden to make sure that the crazy vampire would not come and argue with her once more.

She did not know why she often forgot their position when she started arguing with her.

The maids nodded and followed her, equally petrified by the presence of the vampire.

But just as she took a few steps away she heard the sound of clanks of swords make her eyes furrowed.

She was sure the knights only practiced at a distance then why she felt the voice was coming so close.

Hiding her presence, she took a few steps stealthily from where the sound was coming only to find that boy practicing alone.

“Why are you practicing here?” Once Hazel was sure that he was alone there, she walked out with a frown on her face as she noticed he had a wooden sword in his hands but he did not have any partner.

He was attacking the trees and though he had made several marks on trees showing his strength this was not the way he should learn to wield a sword.

“Master!” he kneeled in front of her feet making her take a step back.

She wanted to tell him that he did not need to do it and she did not treat him as a slave, but remembering the way he was being treated in that dark room, she stayed silent.

She had to intimidate him a bit to persuade him to not accept bullying from other knights.

“I asked you a question!” she repeated as she took the wooden sword from his hands. She noticed that his hands have many scratches and cut marks.







How much force was he using to cut these trees or was it from before?

Though she noticed his hands, she did not ask a word about it or commented.

“I wanted to check my strength!” did he think she was a fool! She raised a brow at his lame reply but her eyes turned cold the way he was ignoring looking at her.

Even he was challenging her position and took her as a gullible girl.

“And you think that vampires are not strong enough to have a spar with and check your strength so you are here!

Attacking the trees that could not even move and defend themselves! What kind of strength would you find by attacking on them?” her cold words made him silent. She did not know what he was thinking but she did not like how he was not responding to her words even when she had asked so many times.

“I see that you did not want to tell me the truth. What is the sense of asking you then. You can continue what you were doing, I am leaving anyway!” his eyes that were calm even when he could feel that she was getting annoyed flickers when she did not push him for his lies but turned to leave instead.

Why did she not behave the way all other masters do? And in the end, he always felt guilty of hurting her from his actions or words.

“Wait! I did not want to lie to you master but the other knights did not practice with me.

I did not want to worry you over every small thing. And.. I did not like the way they talked to you.

Since I can not attack them, I am keeping my distance from them!” Hazel’s eyes softened when she felt the helplessness in his tone.

He was like a lost soul that did not know how to cope up with his surroundings just like her.

“If that is the case, then I can be your sparring partner. That way I will be able to learn a few things too!”
