Chapter 526 Keeping A Corpse

Chapter 526 Keeping A Corpse

"Is he better now?" asked Hazel as she walked into the room where Rafael was kept. It had been a month and things had started to calm down.

After the massacre, most of their enemies and those who were against the idea of making a peace treaty had died. Now they were having a calm empire.

Hazel could see witches living peacefully with humans and working as healers and engineers who could make new things with their powers while vampires were part of the new empire for their strength.

There was no power disparity as each of them thrive to help each other. The council had been formed again too.

After Lucio left, his place was taken by one of the elders he recommended and Helen, the daughter of the marquess who had helped Lucio even when she knew that he was a witcher.

Edward was proven innocent and had taken back his place with a few more humans that had supported Hazel in the palace.

The vampires had a hard time standing but thanks to her request Damien had come back to fill the absence of Rafael. But he had clearly stated that he would leave once Rafael was better and had no interest in politics.

Hazel had taken the place of the lord as Rafael's wife and one of the strongest witches. When she had taken the position, many were afraid that it would strengthen the position of witches with a total of four witches in the council out of seven but she had proved again and again that she was a born human and wife of the lord of vampires with the power of witches.

She was perfect when it comes to balancing the power of three.

"You know that he can not wake up." Stefan, her familiar sighed as it had become a routine. She would come and ask the same question daily and sit there for hours looking at Rafael.

"Mistress!" he called her when she hummed but did not take his eyes off Rafael. "You should free him." her body instantly tenses and her jaws clenched at his cruel remark and she did not respond.

"You know that he is corrupt and would kill anyone and everyone when he wakes up. Your spells are keeping him unconscious and tying him down. But to keep him alive, you are feeding him your energy and the blood that you inject in him is more cruel than killing him."He did not spare a single chance to bare her naked as he called a spade a spade.

His eyes were brutally cold when he moved from his place and stood in front of her.

"You are only using him for your own comfort. Lying down all the time if life is worse than death. And if you keep feeding him with yourself, you are going to die with him too." he warned, looking at her face.

Others could not see but he could. She was getting extremely weak and though he had his own powers now, he was still attached to her. If she would die, he would too. But that was not the only thing that was worrying him.

"Could you really not see the reality?" he asked again, offended that she was not even replying to him and shutting him down as if he did not exist.

"He will wake up once and he will not be corrupted anymore when that happens." Finally she raised her head and looked at him with such conviction that he gaped.

"You have gone crazy!" he shook his head, "the vampire had been like this since months. Do you think miracles happen in real life?" she could feel the snicker in his voice but she could even see the worry that was crawling in his skin.

"I will not die and so will he. I did not want to argue over it anymore." She took out the blood from her body and dug her nails into him with a spell that passed her blood into his body. The color of her face started to turn white and Stefan sighed.

He closed his eyes as he could not see her doing sucide daily. How much she was doing for a man who was no more than a corpse! If only she would let go. Please visit f𝘳𝐞𝒆we𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟e𝑙. c𝘰𝓂

"You will regret it." he whispered before walking out of the room and slamming the door behind him. She smiled as Rafael's face gained color. It looked like he was only sleeping with his rhythmic breathing.

"If only you would have a heart to understand.. I would never regret it even if I died." she smiled as she bent and kissed the forehead of Rafael. As if it was not enough, she bent and captured his lips but just when she was about to let go, she felt that he kissed her back.

She felt the movement of his lips and gasped as she covered her mouth with her hand to stop herself from shrieking.

"Stefan.." she called the familiar demon with a matter of urgency and the door was banged open again. "Rafael is awake! He moved, I felt him moving." she shouted out loud as tears started to form in her eyes but her face was filled with joy, relief and excitement making the demon startled.

He ran towards the body of the vampire and checked his pulse. He frowned as he opened his one eye after another and then kicked him earning a glare from Hazel but he sighed instead.

"Hazel! Rafael is dead and he is not going to wake up. Even if you kept insisting the truth is not going to change. And soon you are going to reach the demon world to face Eve if you do not stop this foolishness." this time he was going ballistic. This was not the first time when she had shouted that Rafael was waking up and he was getting tired of her antics.

He held her hands and pulled her out of the room to save both of their sanity. But just when they left.. Rafael's fingers moved again.
