Seventy Two

On the dance floor,Ephraim looked at his father disappearing from the reception in toll with his shitty family and friends.

They should have not come to his wedding,he would have appreciated it.But no,his father had to come because his vampire ego won't allow it.He has to showcase his authority as the vampires King and to make others aware that he is still the father of the dangerous groom,no one should ally with him.He was drawn out of his thoughts when he felt the hand on his shoulder tracing his abs from his wedding suit.

Euphy!

That's true,he is currently dancing with his wife.

He gasped when he felt her fingers on his neck.She is really testing his limits.

He dug his left hand into her waist before bending a little to whisper in her right ear "Do not tempt me wife,I do not want to kiss you again in front of our guests.Let me be a gentle man till the end of the reception"

"Focus on me husband" Euphorial commands

Ephraim heart starts to beat fast after Euphy's statement.He likes her like this,brimming with self confidence and having control not living in fear and bowing to others.

In the vampire palace,

"Your majesty,I and my family will depart tomorrow since the palace can not be left alone for several days without the royals" King Otis informed the vampire king.

"Ohh,I will have my people escort you and your family back tomorrow morning" King Solomon replied before leaving the throne room.

Aurora and her son left immediately after the King's disappearance,followed by the departure of Kathi and her daughter,then the human royals and the second conbine with her sons.

Inside the appointed room for the human princess,

Diana dropped on the bed immediately she got to the room given to her in the vampire palace.

Today has really been a tasking day to her.She had to watch the merchant daughter getting married to her dream man,Ephraim.Putting that aside,she had to pretend as if she didn't notice the third prince irritating eyes on her.As if that was not enough,with everything going on the wrong foot for her,she still have to act,walk,poise and smile like a happy fool which she is so much far from.

She stood up to undress herself in front of the mirror and change into her night wear without waiting for her hand maid who has been lazying around.

"Do you need help with that?" Ares asked her when he got to her room seeing that she couldn't untie the knots on her back.

Princess Diana eyes quickly followed where the voice came from and her eyes widen when she saw who just spoke to her.

It is the creepy prince! As if her day was not bad enough,now the irritating prince is inside her room,uninvited (she rolled her eyes).

She turned back towards the mirror and acted like she didn't hear him talk or see him.

Ares smiled before leaving where he was standing to help her untie the knots.

"Thanks but your help is not appreciated" she grumbled.

Ares laughed out loud at her words and she raised a brow at him.Not only is he irritating but also crazy and creepy,she concluded.

"What are you still doing at my back,you can see I'm getting undressed" Diana reminded him while glaring at him through the mirror.

Ares used one of his left finger to trace her back through her dress.Then he said into her hot ear "I like you princess,care to be my woman?"

Diana eyes met his through the mirror before leaving her dress to fall on the ground.Now standing with her undergarment,she gave him a daring look without giving a reply to his question.

Ares eyes raked through her reflection in the mirror then he grabbed her before turning her towards him.

"What do you say? Or are you silently agreeing?" He asked as his eyes settled on her breasts.

Diana pushed her breasts up by aching her back when she saw him looking at them.It seems she is not that bad seeing that the third vampire prince desires her,Ephraim is the loser.

"What do you think?" She sexually reply him before biting her lower lip and she laughed victorious in her head (her trick worked on him seeing the way his eyes zeroed on her pink lips).

"We shall see" Ares growled before leaping out of the window.

Princess Diana quickly got dressed before walking towards the window with the intention of locking it.She can't tell when the creepy prince will snoop on her again,prevention is better than cure.

She lay on the bed back to replay what just happened in the room.Fate save her,the prince is really interested in her!

Back in Ephraim's mansion.

The reception has ended,the maids could be seen clearing the wedding venue and making it into the formal garden again.

"Have the decorations burned.Gather at the front of the house once you are done with your tasks" Butler Kream commanded before going to his room to change out of the wedding suit and prepare for the night.

The servants gathered at the front of the mansion just as they had been told.Joy joined them after she had changed out of the day's occasion dress since she is still a maid of the house even though she works for the Lady of the house.

Butler Kream cleared his throat to call the attention of the audience to him.

"The prince asked me to appreciate you all for carrying out your tasks well and showing how trained and loyal you are to this household" He paused before continuing,

"There is not much to say,but I'm informing as the butler of this house that there will be a month holiday for you to rest and stay with your families" he waited a while for the news to sink into their heads and to read their expressions.

"You don't need to worry about serving the prince and his new wife because I,the head maid,Joy and his twelve soldiers will be here for that.So enjoy the break and come back to work with vigour!" Butler Kream cheered and the maids applauded him before dispersing,each one of them going to their various home with smile on their faces.
