Married To The Mad Vampire Lord novel Chapter 97

Chapter 97: Kiss me_Part 1

Belle told him everything she had experienced from when she first woke up in the land of the dead to when she saw Farrah’s soul, and she shuddered remembering how her soul had turned into something so utterly different from what she had looked like alive. She then heard Rohan chuckle in humor,

"I watched the bitch burn. No doubt she would look that way. Did she hurt you?"

He raised his eyes briefly to hers and then back to the safety of her throat, still smiling as if he liked how she described what Farrah had turned into.

Belle could not believe he found it funny enough to laugh, but then she shook her head at his question, already used to his ways.

"I ran away."

"Do you feel bad for her death?" came his question.

Belle was silent. She did not feel bad, and that was so unlike her, and it made her question just how much she was quickly changing and getting influenced by him. Last night, she had been unable to find the tears because she somehow believed in the back of her mind that the girl had brought it upon herself. She was never like this before, and would feel bad for even the worst person.

"No," she replied to him, feeling bad for admitting such a word.

Rohan’s lips pulled up into a satisfying smile and his midnight eyes twinkled in mirth.

"Good. Never feel bad for those who won’t hesitate to step on you. If she didn’t hurt you, who did?"

She continued to tell him the rest until the moment Kuhn had come to help her, and speaking of Kuhn, the creature creepily made its way to the edge of the bed with his cloak dragging behind him and sat down without invitation, with its back straight and its wood-like hands placed on its lap like an obedient kid as it spoke to Rohan from within its big hooded head.

Belle frowned as she realized she could not understand what it was saying now like she had understood what he was saying in the land of the dead. His words were a jumbled nonsense like a child learning to speak, and she blurted out,

"Why can’t I understand you? What is he saying?"

She asked Kuhn and Rohan at the same time.

"Kuhn is telling me how you came face to face with the Witcher of the land of the dead and how dangerous it will be for you if you ever return there," he told her what the creature was telling him and then he scowled,

"You understood his language before?"

Belle nodded quickly.

"It was broken, but I understood. How come I can’t now?"

Kuhn replied to Rohan and Rohan’s scowl deepened as he translated,

"Because you are not home. What the fuck does that mean?"

Rohan demanded, but the creature merely stared and said nothing more, and then turned to Belle before using its wood hand to remove Rohan’s possessive grip from her ankle and pull it away, placing her foot back on the bed like it did not want Rohan to touch her.

"Don’t touch. You put her in trouble long ago," Kuhn said hoarsely to Rohan, who was taken aback by the creature’s action.

Rohan let out a humorless laugh.

"You are overpassing your boundaries, Kuhn. That’s my wife, and I don’t appreciate your woods touching her, not to mention you trying to separate her from me," he warned as he reached out to place her foot back on his thigh, but Kuhn’s wood hand gripped her first and pulled it back, and Rohan glared murderously at him.

"Take your wood off her right now or I’ll throw you into the fireplace."

"No. I will protect her from now on. You put her in this mess years ago," Kuhn accused as he stared back at Rohan, whom he’d never until now tried to fight nor be against.

Belle, on the other hand, sensed a fight of some sort was about to happen, and from the one-sided conversation she listened to and Kuhn’s actions, she could tell they were about to fight because of her. She was not in the state to witness any more fights or another chaos, so she intervened quickly and asked,

"Since when could you see him?"

They both turned to her as if just realizing there was a person attached to the feet they were gripping and further hurting the bruises. Kuhn let go and Rohan smoothly placed it back on his thigh as he replied to her question,
