Chapter 78

I can't help but keep it. Fuck!

"Baby.." my heart seemed to caress when I heard Zen's voice. I immediately felt Rosh approach me.

"Zen.." Lily warned.

"I am not going to touch her" Zen said emphatically. Suddenly the whole palace lit up when we heard something when I glanced at Seth there was a statue with his head removed.

all simbos have blue flames. Ordinary blue fire, I can't feel any power in it.

"Woah. How did you know this?" Caleb asked admiringly.

"I've been here. In my dreams.." Seth answered weakly as he took a sip.

"We need to find the blue fountain.." Seth said briefly. Blue fountain?

"What do we need here?" I asked him.

"It is also known as the fountain of truth. I just need to make sure something before I use my power.." explained Seth making us all nod.

"We need to split everyone.." Seth said immediately.

/

"I'll go with Claret.." Rosh and Seth said at the same time.

"I will go with him, I am much stronger than you" Rosh said emphatically.

"I am the eldest, I am stronger than you second prince of Deltora.." Seth said firmly. What is their big problem? We have to hurry.

"You think I don't hear about you? thirteenth prince of Avalon?” Zen stepped between them.

"You know whose goddess you useless vampires are fighting over?" said Zen irritatedly holding sharp ice pointed at the chins of the two vampires.

"Come on Zen, come with us. they're too crazy with their own goddess, it's impossible for them to even notice Claret. We all know that both of them have their own selfish reason of helping.." I just nodded at what Lily said.

Zen walked between Rosh and Zeth. and at the same time he pushed their chests which made the two slightly move back.

"I love you, be careful. Just shout baby if you need me.." I just smiled at what Zen said before he followed his brothers.

"Let's go.." I got between Rosh and Seth who were getting heated. Everyone is Rosh's enemy, he has nothing to agree with.

We started climbing the stairs as if it would break at any moment. when we got to the second floor i could barely look at the old paintings with cobwebs and dust, broken vases, cockroaches, scary statue and old equipment.

I screamed loudly when I suddenly heard a piano playing from not far away. Rosh quickly converted me and Seth blocked us alertly all around.

"Shit" we just cursed when a rat came out of the white cloth covering the grand piano.

in Rosh's anger, he suddenly surrounded it with his thorny plant until it completely died.

"Merciless" Seth said shaking his head.

"Since you don't have powers like mine" Rosh said arrogantly.

we continued to walk until my eyes widened as there was one after another in our direction until it finally increased. Fuck.

What the hell is wrong with this castle?

I don't understand how to stand up anymore. and I almost protested when I felt myself rise. Rosh picked me up.

"Put me down.." I moaned.

"A determined woman's skin is sensitive. Another thing is that Zen might kill herself if someone else bites you, whether it's a cockroach or another vampire.." Rosh said lazily.

we just kept walking until we got to a lot of books.

"I've seen this before..I've seen this before.." Seth said again and again. He was trying to find a book as if he could still see the letters in its antiquity.

there was a book he picked that caused the book cases to separate.

The stacked books fell away and revealed to us a small but stunning room.

It is lit by two small domes with blue flames. there were four ancient machines, rows of black apples, mirrors of various designs and above all a huge portrait of a very beautiful woman.

A beautiful painting of a girl with a very gorgeous blue eyes. the picture of him is so alive as if at any moment he will come out of his picture. Who is she? Is she the girl who turned into blue fire?

Even Rosh who picked me up slowly lowered me to approach the beautiful picture of the woman, even Seth stared at it.

"She looks like you Claret.." Rosh said softly. I frowned at what he said, even Seth turned his eyes back to me and the picture a few times.

Why can't I see what they are saying? She's too beautiful, my eyes are full of her.

"Give me your hand Claret.." I approached Seth and held out my hand to him. I was just surprised when he cut my palm slightly causing a little blood to come out.

Seth moved my hand with a little blood stain on the picture and when it approached the whole palace was gently humanig. the table where so many apples and small glasses were placed moved little by little until a small staircase appeared at the bottom of the palace.

"Call them Claret.." I nodded at what was said Seth said and I called Zen in my mind.

the three of us started going down the stairs and with each step we took, the dome with blue flames opened spontaneously. We just keep walking until we reach the end.

A very long river with blue water appeared before us.

in the middle of this blue river are two graceful white column fountains and the dripping blue water from each top is their only connection. I can't help but be amazed by this place, every corner of it is alive. "The fountain is real.." Seth said in disbelief. then he is still not sure of what he told us earlier?

It wasn't long before Zen and his brothers arrived. Like me, they were also amazed by what they saw.

"This place, I thought everything was a legend.." Evan said in disbelief.

"We need to proceed.." Seth said softly. I saw that he was holding two golden cups.

"You need to place your hands on each fountain.." Seth started going down the blue river. Zen and I followed him, I opened the connection between Zen and my thoughts. He never stops saying how much he loves me and apologizes endlessly.

'I love you so much Claret..'

'I love you and I'm sorry for everything baby..'

'I'm sorry for being weak..'

I love you more Zen..I love you so much prince of the snows..'

Zen and I were both in the same fountain and we both stared hard as if our eyes didn't want to leave each other.

"This is the fountain of truth, I want to know which of the two of you has been affected by the bad effects of the curse.." said Seth who was in the middle of us formally.

Rosh and Zen's brothers stayed outside the river.

"It's me Seth" I answered weakly. I showed him a few strands of my hair that were white, a sign that I was the cursed woman.

"Still, I want to confirm it" I just nodded at what Seth said.

"We'll know which one of you two can dissolve if the water turns red the moment your hands touch it.." we were all silent as Seth said.

'I love you Zen, I love you..' I saw Zen smile with his red eyes.

'I love you more Claret Cordelia Amor..'

I took a deep breath and Zen and I put our hands together. We stared at each other for a few minutes before we decided to lower our eyes to the water.

and once again my hot tears started to flow when I saw the red water coming from Zen. No..no..why? Am I not cursed? Why my prince? Why Zen?!

"Zen..." I called his name.

"It's not real Seth, I'm cursed..I'm cursed aren't I? Look and my hair? I have white hairs..I have white hairs..it's not Zen, is it?" I asked Seth again and again but I couldn't get an answer.

"I'm glad baby..I'm glad.." Zen smiled at me. what the hell is he talking about?!

"Zen.." Lily said stupidly. Even the Gazellians stared at the continuous flow of red water from the fountain where Zen's hand was placed.

"Now, I think we need to start. I can't promise it will be successful but I promise I'll do everything I know" Zen and I just stared at each other.

'No matter what happens..always remember that I will always love you..forever..eternal..' I just bit my lip at Zen's words.

'I will love only you Zen, only you dear prince..no one will let go...no one will let go..I will not let go of you..'

Seth started scooping up the blue water. He took my hand and without saying anything he cut it again with his small knife. he dripped my blood into the cup, he did the same to Zen.

The last thing he did was drip his own blood into our glasses before I saw his eyes turn red as he stared at it for a few seconds. He gave it to Zen and me.

"Drink.." he said shortly.

'I love you Zen..I love you..' I said again and again while my two hands itched the cup.

'I love you more baby..'

both of our eyes turned red before we began to drink our blood from the cup.

every time I pierce it, my tears fall. I'm begging, work please. You work. Work, work please.

I drained everything in the cup and quickly met my prince's eyes. even though his eyes were still red, I slowly touched the strand of my hair that was white and my hands almost burned when I saw that it had returned to its old color.

"Zen!" I didn't pay attention to the eyes staring at us. I quickly ran the distance between us and held him very tightly.

"Claret.." he quickly picked me up and immediately claimed my lips.

"Oh boy, we need to leave.." Rosh said laughing.

Zen and I ignored them, we only heard each other at this time.

Zen lost his balance and both of us fell completely into the blue river. We both never left each other even though our bodies continued to sink. we kiss, touch and caress each other under this blue river. We're too thirsty, hungry and craving for each other to mind our surroundings. All I want right now is his lips, his arms and every part of my vampire prince.

I felt that Zen had already pulled my hair and I was just pulled from him when he bit my neck hard. My breath escaped from my lips when I finally felt his warm lips on mine skin.

I've missed this. i miss his lips, his fangs, his arms around me. I miss the ice prince hunger.

'Zen..' he tightened his grip on my waist causing our burning bodies to touch more. We immediately disappeared into the river and with his quick action we were up on the stairs.

I catch my breath as my wet body wraps around my prince.

"Where are we going?" while he kept kissing my shoulder.

"Looking for bed? I think.." he answered me with a smile. instead of answering him I just grinned and I turned to his neck so that our lips met again.

"Baby.." I just moaned when he bit my bottom lip.

we didn't reach the bed anymore, we stopped at the full staircase and he quickly laid me down on it. Zen never leaves my eyes as he rushes to undress in front of me.

"Just..just don't rip my dress Zen.." I said while looking at the beautiful body of the snow prince. He's too hot and damn delectable.

"As you wish my Claret..." I quickly felt Zen's hands on my chest and without a word he divided my clothes in two. What the fuck?

"Zen..I told yo--" I couldn't speak again when he captured my lips again. he himself took my hands and placed them on his breasts.

/

"Caress me baby..I want to feel your hands..I've been dying for this day to happen again. I miss you so much Claret. I miss you so damn much.." I just caught my breath when he bit the tree of my ear.

"Zen..." Zen completely undressed me. He just stared at me for a few minutes as if it was the first time he saw my whole body.

"You're so beautiful Claret...you're so beautiful.." he said bitingly as his eyes ran over my body.

"Let me kiss you all over baby.." I nodded at what he said. And he started coming down on me. I closed my eyes as he bathed and kissed my face. My hand never stopped caressing his very soft hair while his lips and hands were busy on every part of my body.

My lips almost parted when he made me feel his fangs.

"Zen.." I thought he was going to bite when he just kissed my neck. damn He's teasing me!

"Zen.." he returned to my lips again. kissing me deeply and passionately, we play with our tongues, twisting and conquering each others mouth.

I just stared as Zen slowly ran his mischievous tongue from my lips, down my neck to the center of my breasts. I almost went crazy with what he was doing to me.

I just moaned when I felt his lips on my chest. He's like a kid licking and sucking it, like it was a damn delicious ice cream with his favorite flavor. Damn this vampire prince! He's damn silly.

"Zen!" I call his name blushing. He snatched my both hands and he started to suck and kiss my every fingers. Oh my gosh! He will definitely kiss every inch of me.

"Zen.." I'm tired of what he's doing. He's just using his lips! My god!

"Just caress me beautiful.." he whispered to me. I finally moaned when he bit my right breast. I couldn't understand anymore while feeling the warmth of his lips on my chest. His other hand is busy massaging the other one.

"Zen.." I was almost out of breath. He's too good! His lips, his hands, his fangs! Every bit of Zen. damn My body rose again when I felt his lips on the most sensitive part of my body. he firmly held my thighs to stop me from any movement.

"Zen..Zen..ahhh" I was almost sweating from what he did. I almost scolded him for what he did to me.

"Zen.." I don't know where to hold my hands. I almost straightened myself, my head was spinning.

"Zen..Zen..ahhh.." he's damn kissing me down there! With his damn expert tongue.

"I love you Claret Cordelia Amor.." he quickly returned to my lips and kissed me deeply again. while my lips kept exchanging kisses, I could feel his gentle stroking of my long hair His favorite favorite thing to do.

He grabbed my hands again and brought them to the creature that had been losing me.

"Caress me baby.." he whispered to me. I bit my lip and nodded to him and with my itchy hands I held both of my hands here. Zen's eyes widened at the same time.

"Wh..and happened..? it's bigger.." he just grinned at me and captured my lips again. In an instant our position changed, I was on top of him. I let go of my hold and started showering Zen with kisses on his neck .

"Baby.." I continued kissing until his mouth watered abs.

"Claret.." Zen couldn't take it anymore and changed our positions again.

"I want you now baby..I love you.." I just caught my breath when I started to feel him.

"Zen.." both of our eyes were burning as our lips parted. I can slowly feel him..

"I love you so much goddess from the mirror.."

At the same time as we were completely alone, my fangs bit into the snow prince's chest.

'I miss you Prince Zen'

--

I just woke up wearing Zen's clothes while he was still firmly clinging to me.

I couldn't help but run my fingers over the wonderful eleven that drove me crazy. His lips never fail to make me happy.

"I love you.." Zen said to me with his eyes closed. The prince is awake and he wants me to watch him.

"Yes me too.." I answered him.

"I said I love you Claret, what is 'me too'?" frowned when he said that made me grin. I immediately came to him and kissed his small mole near his lips.

"I love you too Prince Zen.." our lips were about to touch again when we heard Lily's loud voice.
