looking at her she was more beautiful than her mother and he could tell that she was different too she looked more mature for her age, he didn't miss how the lord was looking at her as she was the most precious thing to him

" I may not know anything about the vampire society but I'm willing to learn not to become a queen but so I can understand him more " she paused looking at the lord nodded his head gently for her to continue

" this not a romantic novel little girl we have a law that govern us " the Hanadagi lord was cut off by Althea

" I think you are not speaking with the name of the senate right now Father " she emphasized the last word to see him clinch his fest in anger

" We apologize for lord Hanadagi behaviors we only wanted to meet you " one of the senate members spoke as he walked towards her and the lord

" Please don't take his words to heart he tends to be unpolluted sometimes, and if I may say you are very beautiful the lord is lucky to have a beautiful woman like you," the old said as kept looking at her making Althea a bit uncomfortable

" thank you, sir," Althea said forcing herself to smile

the lord hasn't said anything only watching though he wanted to rip off the Hanadagi heart for rising his voice on her he stopped himself when he felt her tighten her hold on his hand which forced him to comply to her wishes

he didn't want to be involved with these filthy men but he has to respect her decision

"you misunderstood me, sir, I'm seeking the t.i.tle of queen nor I'm after any kind of power and if we got married I want a peaceful life that it's away from everything including the senate " Althea spoke trying to not lose her temper that man words made her very angry

" I'm sorry but... "

" that's enough " the lord spoke cutting the old man " I believe everyone one insulted her enough she had made herself clear she refusing to be a queen " the paused looking at the members

"

" from now on Althea has nothing to do with the senate is that understood? " the Lord asked and Althea saw his eyes turn to blood red color

" yes my lord " the members spoke in union

" let's go," the lord said before leaving the meeting room with her with everyone watching and unable to utter a word
