Chapter 198 Anger and Sadness

"Why are you here?" Lucinia’s face was grim as she glared at the man elegantly sitting opposite her.

"To guard you?"

"You are no longer my knight." There wasn’t a hint of emotion in her voice. "And you are not welcome here."

Surprisingly, Zach sigh and shook his head. "Listen Lucinia... I know I made a mistake. But that was only because I thought that... I thought that you would let everyone continue to bully you. I know you wanted other people’s acknowledgment more than you wanted me. I just can’t have a relationship with someone who doesn’t even like herself enough to know her real worth."

Lucinia stopped herself from puking from the man’s words. What was that supposed to mean? "Zacharia... we are finished. Whatever is it that I felt before was gone? It vanished when you didn’t have the intention to help me at that time. I don’t even want to put myself in the same room as you. Why would you even think that I would want you to guard me? Besides... I can guard myself perfectly."

Another sigh escaped the man’s lips. "You really... you are still as stubborn as ever." Zach’s face turned soft. "Why don’t you come sit next to me so we can... talk about stuff more seriously?"

Fear immediately flashed in her eyes. Of course, she doesn’t fear Zach. However, she feared that Mo Li, who was somewhere around here won’t be able to stop himself. That would mean... Zach is dead! Of course, that couldn’t happen. After all, she still had quests about the flowers that Zach used to give her. "You came here asking for a conversation without even giving me some gifts for your apology. Not even a flower. Zacharia... did you think I am really that dumb? I know you were never sincere. I knew that the reason why you are here is because of her majesty’s words."

"You wanted to flower?" Surprised glinted in Zach’s eyes.

"No." She lied and made sure that he could see the lie in her eyes before she lowered her gaze and avoided the man’s eyes. "Just leave... please... I don’t want to see you again."

"Lucinia listen to me... what happen between us— "

"There is no us, Zach." Sadness flashed in her eyes. Lucinia knew that she would get in trouble with the Duke later, but she needed to do this for her quests. "There was never an us." Inwardly, Lucinia wanted to laugh out loud. Those words... were definitely enough to make her cringe. However, she forced the sadness in her eyes. And reminded herself how she needed this.

"Alright, since you are still mad about what happened, I will leave. But this is not done Lucinia. We are far from finished." He said before he strode out of her quarters.

"Close the doors and don’t let anyone disturb me." She ordered the servant then went to her bed, waiting for Mo Li to show himself. Of course, when he showed himself, he immediately pinned her towards the bed, his face was dark and small blood trickled down his lips.

"You really dared to attack me? Why do you want to save that man?" he hissed, his eyes turned darker. Lucinia shivered inwardly. She could feel anger laced the man’s voice, and it hurt her to see him like this. "Do you really need to act like that in front of me?" She didn’t miss the sadness that quickly flashed in his eyes.

Lucinia’s eyes turned complicated. Of course, she does! This was the reason why she was here! She needed to do quests, complete them, and save people. Her whole existence revolves around these quests! She pursed her lips and didn’t answer him.

What was she supposed to say?

"I want the location of the flowers. I want to know where did he got it."

"Why?" he asked, his eye squinted.

"I know you want to know about it. I just..." Lucinia really felt guilty for doing this, she felt lying to him was making her chest hurt, but this was the only thing she could think of. "I just thought you would be happy if I try to ask him to bring more flowers. I thought you would ask your people to follow him, so we will know where exactly did he get those flowers."

Mo Li’s lips primed. He stared at her eyes and sighed inwardly. Then he let her hands go and sat on the bed. He knew he overreacted, but seeing her look at men like that is just... It made him so angry, he almost couldn’t control himself. He wanted to kill Zach, but Lucinia actually sent her ability towards him, preventing him from moving an inch.

He tried to fight Lucinia’s ability, but he soon realized it was futile. He too had blood, and she can control the blood in anyone’s veins. He could try and use his full ability to counter her ability, but that would reveal that he wasn’t really a vampire. He gritted his teeth before he stood.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"I need some air." Mo Li said before leaving her quarters. Lucinia sat on the bed when Mo Li finally left the room. She then thought about her actions earlier.

If she would ask the system, it would surely say that it was the right thing to do. After all, Zach’s death would surely make the queen think that Mo Li is around. After all, the Queen thought that she was still into Zach, so she won’t really kill the man. Lucinia’s face darkened when she remembered Mo Li’s face.

It was sad, angry, and many other emotions that she hadn’t recognized. And everything about his reaction hurt her.

But how could that be? How could she feel anything like this? Clearly, the robot mentioned before that she won’t have the capability to fall for someone, nor to have a child as it would only complicate her quests. If she doesn’t have the capability to love then, what was she feeling right now?

Why does hurting him pains her? Why does the sadness in his eyes was enough to break her heart? This was not normal.

Lucinia gritted his teeth as she stood and started pacing inside her room. Then she rummaged through her space and examined all the potions and pills that she was able to bring from the other word. This space was like a treasure trove, which contains everything from potions that would make her faster to pills that would make her invisible.

Without any hesitation, Lucinia used the potion that would make her faster for the next twenty-four hours. Then she changed into some comfortable clothing before taking the pill that would make her invisible. A part of her knew that this plan was wrong. But for some reason, she couldn’t really bear to see Mo Li like that.

She bit her lips and quickly used another exit to leave the place and followed Zach as he visited Prince Kuzma. After a few minutes, Lucinia finally found Zacharia.

Lucinia held her breath, her eyes widened as she looked at the two handsome men, kissing passionately in front of her. Who would have thought that her initial assumption about these two was actually right?

"Why did you come?" The Prince pulled away from Zach’s arms. "I told you to stay away. Since that damn Lucinia told mother about us..." He clenched his jaws and closed his windows and doors. Sadly for him, Lucinia was already inside the room before he could close any other entrances. The Prince must have been really confident that no one would come in this room as he was so confident kissing Zach with his door wide open.

"I miss you," Zach’s voice was soft— something that Lucinia never heard before. She shivered inwardly as she stood as still as a statue. She thought that Zach would totally become the dominant one in a relationship. After all, his face was always cold and chilly while Prince Kuzma was the noisy one.

Was it really the other way around? She gulped.

"You can’t miss me! You are supposed to marry Lucinia!"

"But— "

"You marry Lucinia, get her blood, and kill her. That’s the only way that we would be able to be together."

"But Kuzma... she hates me." Zach sat on the edge of the bed, his head lowered before he sighed. "Your sister is different. I know she doesn’t like me anymore and knowing her, there is no way that she would like me again."

"Zach— " a hint of warning laced his voice. "Are we really doing this now?" Kuzma’s voice also softened as he sat on the edge of the bed, and stared at his lover’s side profile.

For a few seconds, silence descended between them before Zach finally turned towards him. Seeing Zach’s vulnerable expression made Kuzma frowned. He immediately leaned and captured the man’s lips.

"Are you F*cking kidding me, Lucinia? Are you really going to watch them do this?"

Lucinia froze when she suddenly heard Mo Li’s voice. The thing is... she could hear his voice inside her head. Confused, she tried to look around. Was she hallucinating? Or... did Mo Li just speak inside her mind?
