Loved By a Vampire King

Chapter 477 - Running Away!



Isabella's eyes glared into his green ones. Surprise flicked through his gaze as Silas didn't expect that Isabella would go against his decision to save Thristan. Somewhere he could feel why was she acting so protective with Tiara. Same like Tiara, Isabella spent most of her childhood without her father being around all the time whenever she needed him. But Thristan was a threat for Tiara's child!

Silas clenched his teeth together, his green eyes narrowed as he stepped forward aggressively in fit of his anger for Thristan. At the same time, Isabella stepped forward, facing his rage with full determination of saving Thristan. Her gaze didn't falter from Silas's eyes who was forcing himself to not harm her.

Silas squeezed his word out, growling at her in frustration,

" You...Step.. aside.. Princess Isabella or else I will.."

" I will what, Duke Silas? You will do the same with me just the way you killed others", Isabella's voice passed out coldly. Even she didn't expect that her behavior towards him would change so drastically. Perhaps it was because Baby Tiara was in her arms and she could feel the motherly emotions with this baby.

Silas opened and closed his mouth sheepishly. No matter how angered he was, his wolf wouldn't harm her at any cost. It is a cruel act of nature that at one point of life, you have to bow down your ego in front of someone no matter how powerful you are. Silas, the infamous Duke of Richalwolf Land was facing the same thing this time.

Soon his momentum changed and there was a reflection of helplessness flashing across his expression. He sighed out deeply, approached his slowly and looked into her eyes to murmur softly,

" You know, I can't hurt you!"

This time, he didn't try to hide his emotions. The affection in his eyes were crystal clear to Isabella who looked away shyly. One hand holding the Tiara closely, she muttered softly,

" Please let him go! Tiara..I don't want her left with..no one in this world.. Please.."

Silas lowered his head down to exhale heavily. This woman was delibaretly acting so sweetly that it was hard for him to ignore her words. His eyes pulled back on Thristan who was cowering at a corner in fear of his obvious death. His knee continued bleeding without stopping at all.

Silas ordered looking back at the river,

" Jump!"

Isabella frowned looking up at him confusingly. Even Thristan glanced up, wondering what did he mean by his word. Silas clarified further, stepping away from her slowly,

" I told you to jump into the river, Thristan!"

Thristan swallowed and tilted his head back to look down at the rough river. His knee was hurt and with his poor skill of swimming, he had the high chance of loosing his life into this river. Thristan muttered, trying to get Isabella's sympathy,

" But..my leg..I can't swim in this state..how can I.."

Silas raised his eyebrows playfully. His jaw clenched again when he scoffed at Thristan coldly,

" Wow! I am sparing your life hence you are complaining?"

Isabella parted her lips to say something but didn't talk back anymore. She was happy that he was already listening to her and pushing him more could change his mind. Isabella shifted her eyes back and Thirstan who wasn't brave enough to jump into the water,

" Please follow what he says! Whatever, you will be alive and I believe that you can swim to a nearby land still."

Thristan nodded before taking a glimpse of River behind his back. At least, it was best for him to jump into the water rather than loosing his life in Silas's hand. Looking back to stare at Isabella, Thristan muttered casting one final glance at his daughter,

" Please take care of my daughter, Your Highness! "

Isabella passed him an assuring smile and watched him stumbling on his feet to reach the edge. After taking several shuddered breath, Thristan finally jumped into the water. Whether he had the chance of living or not, it was upto his luck.

Isabella then turned to face Silas who was smiling smugly. He was pretty much sure that Thristan couldn't swim for so long to reach Balvina's border. It was a win-win situation for both of them.

Isabella glared at him complaining,

" That was mean, Duke Silas!"

Silas immediate formed a puppy face. He blinked retorting back innocently,

" How? I thought, I was generous enough to obey your order, Lady Isabella."

Isabella couldn't help but shaking her head helplessly. She could literally see a reflection of Cedric inside him. Both of them find nothing wrong in harming people. Tiara squealed from her embrace coquettishly.

Isabella quickly panicked, lifted her up gently and placed her on her shoulders to press down softly. She feared that the same position made her discomfortable. The infant quickly put a thumb inside her mouth, sucking numbly and made some baby noises that made Silas smiling.

Isabella ignored his presence, walking into the woodland to go back to the orphanage. Silas trailed her off closely, asking from her back out of curiosity,

" You impressed me today, Princess. How was you so sure that I won't harm you? You threw your life for someone else."

Isabella halted in her track, mocking at his smiling face sharply,

" Are you flattered for me?"

Silas grinned at her smugly. Taking a step forward, he closed the few inches gap between them and murmured looking into her eyes,

" Sort of! I was wondering that if my kiss gave you the audacity to act you so bold with me? You know, I could have ripped off your throat!"

Her cheeks flashed thinking about the moment when he kissed her all of sudden. Looking away to avoid his eyes, Isabella mumbled ignoring the heat that radiated from her cheeks,

" I don't know..I just knew that you wouldn't hurt me.."

Silas didn't stay on his place. He began to get closer and Isabella had to go backward instinctively until she had nowhere to go. Silas spoke using his one slender arm to pull her closer,

" I want to know your exact reason! Why do you keep running away from me?"
