Ruthless King Chapter 28
Emaline's heart raced as she anxiously awaited an update from Dr. Bismonte on the condition of the child she and Alaric had rescued. "I do think this problem is worse," she said, her voice laced with concern. They do a head count to see if there are any more survivors like the small girl they rescued, but it turns out she is the only one. The children who died due to failed experiments have been buried, and Horacio is assigned by Alaric to oversee the burial of the children. The unfortunate children were peacefully embarking on their journey to the afterlife. With a heavy sigh, Alaric gazed intently at his beloved. "Love," implored the man, "will you not believe that your parents are involved in this? Emaline swiftly recoiled her head and fixed a piercing gaze upon Alaric. She hesitated to broach the subject. The woman was a skeptic, unwilling to accept anything without concrete evidence. She firmly believed that seeing was believing and would not be swayed by mere words or hearsa

"I can't believe this is happening to me. They had been my parents for twenty years. Now," she whispered, her heart pounding in her chest, "I will know that they are not my parents?" Emaline's countenance fell as she kicked the wall outside the infirmary. Alaric let his beloved alone. Emaline found solace in this matter, as it allowed her to release her pent-up frustration. One of Susan's telltale signs in recognizing Ophelia lies in a peculiar marking on her groin, known only to herself, Alaric, and the parents who have been identified. If Susan's statement is false, how is it that knowledge of that matter has come to light? Alaric's attempts to manipulate her into despising her own parents were futile, for that was not the image she held of the man in her mind. "Do not doubt me, my love," he said with a confident tone. "The mere suspicion that I could be involved in such a matter causes me great pain. The truth is all that I desire, for your own benefit. In the name of my late pa

“This is delicious! Thank you for feeding me.” Emaline's lips curled upward into a smile as she caught sight of her elder sister, who appeared to have recently concluded her meal. Joanne, the personal maid, keeps a watchful eye on it. Deliberately, she and Alaric had appointed the young lady's attendant, ensuring that the girl would not be frightened. Her sister was smiling as if there were no problems or trauma. The elder sister's hand still bore traces of dextrose, while a bandage was wrapped around her neck and a bandage was affixed to various other parts of her body. Emaline stood at the forefront, the door ajar before her. Alaric's absence was not due to negligence or lack of interest but rather to his pressing engagement with a matter of great significance. Emaline rapped her knuckles against the door, hoping to capture their attention. As soon as the girl caught sight of her, her face lit up with joy. The girl was on the verge of leaping out of her seat, but Joanne interven

Alaric was standing next to Emaline and her sister. They ventured into the dense forest, where her counterfeit guardians eagerly awaited their arrival. Horacio stood watch alongside several guards, their duty being to protect and safeguard the king and queen and the perimeter of the palace. The chill of the night had seeped into Emaline's fingers, leaving them frigid and numb. It is likely that she is aware of the fact that the individuals whom she refers to as her parents are not her biological progenitors.Perhaps their strategy had shifted, prompting them to seek Emaline's counsel. "My love, the responsibility of your actions lies solely in your hands. I shall offer my support," Alaric stated as he strolled alongside him and Donica Joy. Emaline sensed their presence, even though they remained distant. Alaric firmly gripped her hands. She had a plethora of inquiries for them, ranging from the reason behind their treatment of her as if she were their own offspring to the rational

"My liege, we must make ready for battle." Horacio spoke to Alaric from his seat on the throne: "You are well aware of the rebels' cunning nature." Atop her throne, Emaline too was perched. After the intense confrontation, they proceeded to carry out a modest coronation ceremony for Emaline, officially recognizing her as the rightful heir to the throne. Alaric made his announcement with a regal air, signaling the arrival of the Queen and the unwavering resolve of the vampire race in the face of the rebels' threats. It was discovered that the vampires who had aligned themselves with the rebels had been utilized as test subjects for the rebels' weaponry. One of those was employed when daring to converse with Emaline. "They are already prepared, Horacio. You seem to be the only one who doesn't," Alaric remarked to his faithful companion, whom he still regarded with disdain. With a heavy heart, Horacio let out a deep sigh and cast a glance towards his colleagues, who responded with no

Emaline spoke with a gentle tone as she turned to Alaric, "Undoubtedly, I shall miss this world, despite the trials and tribulations that I have endured during my time here." The two stayed side by side, gazing at the full moon as it illuminated the city below from their vantage point on the cliff. They spent the entire day exploring the sights to their fullest potential. Concealing their faces, they move amongst the populace with the guise of ordinary mortals. Emaline's heart raced with anticipation as she stepped out into the cool evening air. This was no ordinary outing, for she was not alone. Alaric, the object of her affections, was by her side, and she could feel the weight of his gaze upon her. It was a date, and she was determined to make the most of it. In the vampire realm, time was an infinite resource, and for Emaline, this particular encounter held a singular significance. Despite her prior blindness, she had spent her formative years in this human world, rendering thi

They didn't want us to survive, my King. Alaric," Horacio spoke in a hushed tone, "they have encircled the entire perimeter of the palace." "The idea of a sizable contingent of rebels, all bearing arms, pervaded my thoughts. In addition, the narrative encompasses the individuals upon whom they conducted their experiments, who have since transformed into intrepid vampires." Alaric surmised that they were the ideal subjects for the rebels' experiment. The failed experiments lurked in the shadows, biding their time. Despite lacking the leader's approval, they launched a sudden and vicious assault. Alaric stood in awe as he gazed upon the magnificent creatures before him, his jaw dropping in amazement. The perimeter remained impenetrable due to Horacio's barrier. Horacio's role as a butler extended far beyond the typical duties of his profession. Not only was he responsible for attending to the needs of the palace's inhabitants, but he also served as a stalwart protector of the estate

"What the hell?!" Alaric spoke in a hushed tone as he observed the brazen individuals who had breached the barrier, unable to withstand its power any longer. He ushered Emaline inside, where she found Donica Joy and Horacio waiting. He felt a sense of contentment knowing that Horacio was capable of safeguarding his cherished ones, including Donica Joy. Uno respectfully addressed his King, assuring him that his subjects were putting forth their utmost effort. "They are doing the best they can, my liege," he said. The prescience of the Baron siblings had already accounted for this eventuality. "Maricel," Alaric said, his voice low and urgent. "You must use your ability. "Slow them down," the King commanded Maricel Mamatlalu. Without hesitation, it gave a nod of acknowledgement to the King. "As you command, my liege," she said with a deep bow. The ace up his sleeve in this battle was none other than the Blood Faction. Their unique abilities were particularly effective when employed
