Chapter 19 Im a King

"So how was it?" Sethasked holding my hand. We were walking along the corridor towards my new room.

"Hmm. Everyone treat me nicely." I smiled.

"Well, of course. You're my cute Lil sister after all. And we always welcome newcomers."

He said that but Mavis was not very welcoming to my arrival. She was also the one who had a grumpy face all the time, sulking in the corner. And yes, just like Seth said, all of the members are all boys. Maybe this job isn't really for girls?

"Here we are!" He opened the door. The room was furnished. It was clean but there's a feeling that this room haven't been used for ages. Actually, it looks like an apartment.

"Wow, thanks ! The room is lovely, Seth. But--"

"See ? There's also a bathroom, kitchen and living room! But we also have a dining hall downstairs. Whenever we have something to discuss, all members have to go down,Kay?" He cut me off.

I threw him a smile and looked around.

"You, you don't like it?" He said from behind with a tilted head.

"Ah no! I mean I love it! It's just."
I paused.
"It's too sudden, for me to accept this." Again my eyes dropped to the ground.

Seth tries to comfort me by stroking my back slowly in circle motion. He grab me into his embrace slowly and whispered those never-give-up phrase that I don't want to hear at this point.

"Anna. Believe me you'll going to be fine, now that you are here with me, okay?" eyes to eyes with his sweet sad smile. He gave off such a loving and caring person. The type of person I'm afraid the most.

"I'm downstairs if you need me." He closed the door and instantly I crumbled on the single bed. Let out a big sigh and stretched.

This is where mother was? VHA. This place is like and abandoned school, even though it's clean it's nothing to compare to the Mansion but despite it all. I could at least feel human over here than you-know-where place. I let my body fall on a single bed in the room. Pondering what the hell am I going to do now. I know following my brother is right, but I don't know what he's like i dont know whats behind his smile i dont what lies he did.

Today was such a tiring day. I rolled to my left side and breathe in and out. I'm alright. Anna you're okay. You can do this. The most amazing birthday party created by my bestie, me my meeting my brother for the first time, and leaving Niel. I don't know which is more tiring.

Niel...

What are you doing? What am I doing?

NIEL'S POV

Niel....

My heart thumped . I could feel her calling me which is of course, my hallucination. She would never miss me. After all I did to her. After all those suffering i made her go through. Truth to be told, i miss her and it burns too much, the pain was much worse than being shined with sunlight that killing us vampires.

I haven't get out from my room since the last time i saw her, too tired and hopeless since i dont have my mate. She was everything and yet all i care was my stupid ego. I should have care i should have listen to her more. I should have cherish her more. Her lips, her soft skin, her beautiful dark blonde hair as i tugged it on our bed. I miss all that. I miss her. Suddenly my thoughts was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Who is it." I growled not welcoming the visit.

"Excuse me my lord, but Your Majesty is summoning you. He's not in a good situation,my lord." A female maid sounds worried at my door

It cant be that my father is 'not in a good situation'? He's never troubled or even showing the slightest thing on his face. I hurriedly went out from my room and accidentally made the maid gasped in fears.

"Take me to him. Hurry."

"Yes, my lord !" She quickly grabbed her fluffy maid outfit and dashed to my father's room and frantically explained to me everything she knew. That maid was actually the one who's been taking care of the King's health when I don't even know a clue to his sickness.

"Your Majesty, the prince is here." She said as she knock and open the door, bowing.

"Father." I spoke but nothing came out from his mouth. He was silent and bedridden, his eyes were looking outside of the window watching the rains slowly shimmering.

"Father, I'm here." I stated coldly. His face was pale as he turns his golden eyes to meet mine and honestly this is the first time I ever seen him look so sick.

"Son." He spoke softly. It took me by suprise that he called me that. Yes, I am his illegitimate son but he never say nor prove to be a father, to be a dad. And i felt really sad knowing that the bond had just started when he's about to be gone forever.

"You are my only offspring that fits to the throne. I want you to take it, my responsibility, my place and my duty." I knew this day would come but i never thought it would be this early. I wasn't prepared to whats coming. Heck i dont even know how to be a King of Vampires.

"Either way, you dont have a choice. Im not going to stay long. I'm tired. I wanted to sleep forever. Im too old to run the kingdom too." As he stated, he patted my head. That was the first time he ever touch me. He never were, before. He would just praise me with a smile or nodded but never touch me. I smiled sadly to my weak father. Just like he said, he wouldn't last long.

"If that is what you wished for, then i have no objection." Accepting his wish was the simplest thing ever and it made him smiled sincerely with a hint of bitterness.

But taking the job itself wasnt going to be easy. Im going to be very busy and soon enough maybe i will forget about Anna. My sweet little flower. Leaving the room to make him rest or let him be with himself was wise enough. He needed that. He never had times to think about himself and it broke him. Just like how i will be in the future. As i close the door to his chamber, i heard he let out her last word.

"Rosella." He whispered.

And i know that was Anna's mother. His true and only mate. I clenched my hand into a fist, how loved he is to his mate and I understand it. Rosella died when the guard found her and the baby was gone. To my knowledge, Rosella only gave birth to a boy and that is Seth. After that, she ran away with her son. 2 years after that i was born. But 3 years more,Rosella died. I assume that Anna is actually half sister of Seth since we dont know who's her father is. Which clearly means im not related to her in blood. Nonetheless, she must have been confused and tried to get way from me.

I shouldn't be thinking this. I should be thinking something else. I am a King of Vampires now. I wont waste my time with anyone who's not important. With that, i feed myself that lies to move on.
