《Love Agreement With The King》Chapter 226 - Conflict Of Interests
Advertisement
John and Abigail headed to the kitchen as she come back to her senses and they waited for Victor to return with the meat, Abigail seemed shaken as if she was slowly understanding what happened in her surroundings and what her desires were. That usually happened to vampires when they finished their transition and fully turned.
"You alright?" John asked noticing the familiar puzzled gaze, he knew that gaze very well he had the same confused gaze when he found out what he did the first nights after turning.
The only difference was that he had nobody who could refrain him and impede him to do such despicable things whereas Abigail was lucky to have them to keep an eye on her and would refrain her to do things she would later regret.
"I was… going to kill a child. A child... That could have been my son!" Abigail said as her eyes filled with tears and she quickly wiped them off with a shaking hand.
"You will learn soon how to control your stimulus Abigail, things like that won't happen anymore. Your child is growing stronger thanks to the transformation as weird as it may seem."John said, trying to drive her attention away from that matter.
"It should be against nature to allow a vampire to grow a child and give life but that happens sometimes and that was the only thing Victor could do to save both your child and you." John continued gasping, as the words came out his words he understood why Victor did what he did if he was in his shoes maybe he would have done the same to save Roselyn's life and he also did bite her when she was risking her life.
Abigail took a deep breath and looked up to John, "did you tell Rose?" she asked in a murmur as if she was worried to ask such a thing and at the same time scared to know his answer.

"I did, I don't want to keep secrets with her. Not anymore." He replied gazing at Abigail who nodded and gasped.
"What did she reply?" Abigail asked in a low voice almost unhearable and quite concerned about the answer.
John smiled, "she was worried for you and wanted to see you." He replied and Abigail smiled for a fraction of a second before knitting her eyebrows, "worried?" she asked and her voice peaked.
"Yes. But I will reassure her that she has nothing to worry about, you improved and are slowly learning how to control yourself so I couldn't be happier and I am sure she will appreciate it." John reassured Abigail whose gaze remained fix on the table as if her mind and her thoughts were taking full control over the situation. She shook her head gently and she took another long breath, "I hope so. I hope she will love me and won't be scared of me." Abigail murmured, she gasped gazing at an empty spot on the table.
"She won't, she wasn't scared of me when I killed many creatures in front of her." John joked as he giggled but Abigail gazed up at him widening her eyes and becoming even paler. "Y-Y-You killed creatures in front of her?" She stuttered, her mouth dried making it difficult for her to swallow down properly.
John cursed himself mentally, maybe he didn't have to mention that. In his mind, it seemed like a good idea to soften the situation but somehow it wasn't and made Abigail gaze at him half scared half irritated.
"...Yes." John didn't know what to say to flee from that difficult situation, he limited himself to shrug. Maybe he should have mentioned Roselyn's supernatural powers to experience the crimes people commit and prevent deaths. But something was telling him that was probably the worst thing he could do.

"When the supernatural army attacked you in the castle?" Abigail asked blinking few times and managing to reorder her ideas.
The door bummed against the near floor and Victor entered grabbing few bottles of blood. His clothes were dirty of blood and with some hair as he probably had to fight against few wild boars.
He walked toward the table and placed the bottles on the table and then he removed his shirt, "one of them was poisoned." Victor said to John and as he removed his shirt he revealed a scar on his stomach.
"The snakes." John groaned, "what if their plan isn't infecting humans but infect animals?" John questioned as he dropped his jaw.
"Did the animal turn or acted differently after being poisoned?" John asked as he cupped his chin and narrowed his eyes trying to figure out the whole situation.
Victor took few seconds to recall the fighting, "maybe a bit stronger."
John laid his head over his hand as he gasped, "I wish I could know what they have in mind."
The thought was killing him slowly, he hated to left things unsolved especially things so important like that.
"Drink, Abigail." Victor said pulling closer the bottles to her who shook no with her head, "I don't want it since it will make me stronger." Abigail refused Victor by gesturing with her hand.
"Why not?" Victor asked arching his eyebrows and glowering at John suspicious he said something he shouldn't have said.
"Because becoming stronger will make me kill people and I don't want to do that! I don't want my powers and strength to make me turn into a murderer." Abigail spat out as she laid her head against the table and burst into tears.
Victor glowered at John more as if he supposed it was his fault and John scoffed flustered. "Can you stop blaming me for everything, Victor?!" John yelled irritated.
Meanwhile, Abigail took a long breath as she absentmindedly started at the empty space in front of her as she probably was trying to organize her ideas together and trying to plan what she could do next time.

Tim the Engineer
Summoned against his will to a world of swords and magic, an engineering student struggles to find a way home under the shadow of a world devouring threat. ***************************** Updates: 5/13/19: Revisions to several chapters for clarity, grammar, and style. 4/29/19: A short side story and artwork has been added to the blog. 4/8/19: A Side Story has been updated on my new blog (every writer is required to have one). https://talesfromliahar.wordpress.com/ ***************************** “The summoning scenarios are broken down into groups of ten.” Emi Ito stated. “Don’t, don’t you dare say another word.” Muttered Genzo Uchida. His eyes had turned bloodshot and his hands shook with rage. “The first thirty…” “Shut up!” Genzo bellowed “How dare you help these disrespectful gaijin?” Flecks of spit and madness flew from his face, his fist raised ready to strike. But Emi did not flinch, instead she was about ready to continue when Yuma Takeuchi interrupted her. “Uchida, please,” her sweet sounding words could melt ice. “I think we will have a better chance of getting home if we all work together.” When she glanced up with her sleepy looking eyes at Genzo Uchida he deflated visibly. “Were not getting home.” Uchida said coolly. “Group summoning, large, that puts us in the 60 series. No one came to greet us after five minutes of arrival. That leaves scenarios 68 and 69. In scenario 68 there is something that binds the large group together; they are all classmates or a single family. But thanks to the gaijin” he spit out the word “I think we are scenario 69 with no way home.” Ikko Inoue’s eyes went wide, while Katsukno and Hayata started muttering to themselves. Tim took on a serious look and rubbed his scruffy chin. Emi maintained her stoic expression while trying to find something to refute. McKenzie glanced at Randall and giggled. Randall took the prompting of his teammate and followed up by approaching Genzo. “Uh, so we are in a sixty-nine?” “Yes.” Replied Genzo with the seriousness of someone who’s life was about to end. McKenzie covered her mouth and snickered. “You and me, were stuck in a sixty-nine situation?” Randall pushed with a grin. “Yes, we are all stuck in a sixty-nine scenario together!” Genzo retorted in anger. McKenzie fell on her butt laughing. “What the hell is so funny?” Demanded Genzo, whose face had turned red. “It’s a problem with the automatic translation.” Retorted Tim. Randall, who seemed unable to quit started in again “So, about this sixty-ni…” Genzo interrupted Randall with a swift punch to the face. But, because of their height difference it was a bit of an uppercut that left Randall rattled. Tim and Ikko moved to step in between the two, but Genzo showed no further hostility. Instead he just stared at his clenched fist with such intensity it grabbed the attention of the room. “I unlocked a skill.” He said bluntly. ***************************** This is not a light novel, but people who like light novels should enjoy the themes of this book. ***************************** A Map of the Region
