Chereads / The Fallen Rose: in love with the Vampire King / Chapter 48 - When the torch is lit!

Chapter 48 - When the torch is lit!

Allerick walked into his room hoping to see his fiery Angel, but she wasn't there, his eyes darkened a little when he finally knew where she must have gone to, he would have to wait for her to be back.

His day had been stressful, he threw himself on the bed and stared at the ceiling above him, Lucifer was moving too fast, and he had been working nonstop to gather as many creatures by his side to defeat Allerick, last night he had been battling with Lucifer nonstop, he couldn't control himself and had to stay with Eru.

"Someone misses his little Angel" Lilith always liked to appear before Allerick, clad in her red tight tunic, she looked sexy as ever, but like always Allerick never ever gave her face, he knew she was there but didn't even open his eyes.

"What do you want now Lilith?" he asked, his voice cold and void, something he could never change except It was Nesrin, Lilith was displeased because of this and grunted.

"It turns out that this beauty cannot even set her feat to wherever she wants to," Lilith said in her feathery and seductive tone, while she laid beside Allerick side, Allerick didn't move from his position and let her do whatever she pleases.

"We both know that this was not what you came for!" Allerick said, his voice turned gravely and his brows furrowed. He never liked this devil but she seemed to have a pact with wrath that his spirit always seemed to call to her. Lilith smiled faded.

"Okay Okay, yes I came for another reason, apart from the reason that I am here for you, but to warn you that, they are coming for you little Angel, seems like Asmodeus has found a minion she could use against the last Angel of Nature" Lilith stopped for a minute accessing Allerick expression but to her surprise, he didn't even move an inch or even have a change in expression.

"Your Angel seemed to have drawn enough attention when she unleashed her full power, seems like it's not only Lucifer interested in her, every creature in this world, wants her too, just like the poem, Roses are red and flowers are blue, but only the red that never fades away, she is an attraction that is doom to every creature that belongs to Lucifer" Lilith talked like she didn't belong to Lucifer too, but she never liked talking about only one side, just as she has seen in Nesrin, she must say it.

Lilith caressed Allerick cheeks with her painted fingers, feeling his smooth skin against her own skin, Allerick pondered on all the things she said and must have a talk with Nesrin when she is back.

"Even if you don't answer me, I know that you heard every bit of what I said, you are not meant to fall in love with the Angel, and she will be the doom of you!" Lilith adds spitefully, reminding Allerick of what he was, and the mistake he shouldn't commit.

*clap clap*

Nesrin suddenly clapped to get the attention of the two people on the bed, they already sensed her presence since she appeared in the room, Nesrin already knew this too but she felt this tightness in her chest when she saw him and her on the bed, so she had the urge to clap.

"Are you done, Lilith?" Nesrin asked Lilith who still didn't even look at her, her eyes were still fixed on Allerick as she could never get tired of it.

"I thought you would never arrive" Allerick suddenly spoke as he opened his eyes and stood up from the bed, Lilith also looked away, she then took her eyes to stare back at Nesrin who was glaring at her, Lilith didn't glare she just stared at her before turning into black smoke and dissipating into the air.

"Allerick, don't forget that this is also my abode too!" Nesrin losing her gaze on someone turned her glare to Allerick, Allerick shrugged before he began speaking.

"Were you with Eru?" Allerick asked toppling over Nesrin, he was very close to her, Nesrin grunted and pouted refusing to answer him, but Allerick had a plan. "Seems like someone wants to be seeing Lilith whenever she is out" Nesrin bit her lips in rage.

"I was with Eru, I was bored so I had to go out, what happened, report it to me?" Allerick and Nesrin relationship had turned better and much cheerful, he was a cold-hearted monster outside, but whenever they were together he was the softest of hearts, he only bit Nesrin when he had no choice, and he had never repeated the night of passion, and since Nesrin had no memory of it, she was good.

"Before the big event, you shall be embarking on a journey to the human kingdom, I can't come with you because I would raise an Alarm in that kingdom, and did Eru say he would be going too?" Allerick asked because he wanted someone on the same level of power as him to go with her, even if he didn't like it, and he always felt this pain whenever they were together, but Eru would be of great help to Nesrin's petal life.

"Eru said he would follow me, did he say anything of that sort to you, how did you know?" Nesrin asked quite confused, they were of different species but they think alike, more and more she wondered about their relationship if they were friends or foes.

"Good, I could rest assured, that you are in safe hands" When Nesrin heard that she felt mushy all of a sudden, she felt full and somehow happy, Allerick didn't know this, because he meant whatever he said, Nesrin suddenly tiptoed and place a warm kiss on Allerick's cheek.

"I suddenly don't want to kill you today!" Nesrin said as she pursed her lips, ever since she found out that Allerick had stopped bullying and mistreating her, she had felt freer and warmer inside, it was a good feeling indeed and Nesrin never wanted it to stop.

"So you still want to kill me, then I would like to see you try!" Allerick said with a warm smile that bloomed on his cold handsome face.

"Are you challenging me, Allerick?" Nesrin asked him, she gripped the neck of Allerick, threateningly, before she burst into laughter after seeing his pretense scared expression, and released his neck.

"You are so hilarious!" Nesrin laughed again and Nesrin just stayed there with a hand behind his back, standing like a king, he enjoyed her melodious laughter, which was the sweetest thing he had ever heard in his millennia of years.

                          *                              *                            *

Outside the gates of the castle, Allerick stood before Nesrin who stood beside Eru.

"When the torch is lit we shall see each other Master!" Nesrin said as she stood beside Eru, she was clad in a beautiful pink tunic, with a white veil over her face, Eru just looked at Allerick straight-faced and nodded to him slowly. Nesrin shook her head disapproving of their method.

Nesrin waited for Eru to transform into his dragon form before hopping on his back with Tokori on her lap, Allerick watched as Eru flew away from his sight with Nesrin on Eru's back.

The things that Lilith told him kept resounding in his head, and he was sure that Nesrin would be safe on Eru's back and no harm would befall her, so there was nothing to worry about. He walked back into the castle to utilize his people for the day they would be making their way to the human kingdom.
