Bab 10: You are my prisoner

Huang Qiuyan races as fast as she can. She doesn't look back or pause for words. There is no time. She has the advantage because she surprised them, but they are getting closer to her.

[System: Dear Host, I told you that it was a bad idea.]

"If you can't help me, then don't question my ideas," She yells on the top of her lungs. She hears the sound of feet behind her. She is panicking inside her head. What should she do?

"I am not an assassin. That arrow is not mine," She shouts, hoping that the vampires would hear her.

"If you are not an assassin, why did you escape the prison?" She hears a yell behind her. She doesn't know who it is. "You should stop running if you aren't a criminal."

"I am running because I am afraid of vampires and fangs," She yells back.

At a considerable distance, Fu Sheng and his troupe hear the words. A vampire is afraid of vampires and fangs? There is such a thing in this world. There is no room for doubt anymore. That woman is an assassin. She must be created by the council and sent after them to kill them.

She boosts her speed. Ever since she levelled up, her senses and strength are stronger than before. She could detect approaching Fu Sheng. Her mouth salivates when she recalls the taste of his blood. She is tempted to stop and take a bite of him.

"Argh!" She is frustrated. If she stops, that man is likely to kill her. He is a real vampire. A real bad vampire. All of them wants to kill her.

[System: Dear Host, I am truly worried about you. How can you think about his blood at this moment?]

[Host: If you can't help me, just keep your mouth shut.]

[System: Dear Host, I don't have a mouth. I can sense the temperature drop.]

[Host: What?]

[System: Dear Host, go to your right. Keep running. Increase your pace. Trust me.]

"Trust you?" Huang Qiuyan laughs. "You?"

[System: Dear Host, no time to explain. Run!]

She can sense Fu Sheng's cold eyes on her back. Her instincts urge her to run as fast as she can. She follows the System's instructions blindly. After a few turns, she reaches an open window.

[System: Host, you should jump now.]

[Host: What?]

Fu Sheng is amazed by her speed. She can run faster than most of his underlings. For a convert, that's remarkable. He isn't bothered about her escape from the castle. Though there is a lack of guards, the only way out of the castle is by flying. A low-level convert can't do that yet.

He sees her running to the window, then staring down dumbly. Fu Sheng smiles at her mockingly, somewhat pleased to see that she can't escape his clutches. His prisoner will remain here.

Even a high ranked convert can never survive after jumping from that height.

"This is insane." She looks down. The castle is built on the top of the mountain. Below, she can see the lake. But if she jumps, she is sure that she won't live. She can't swim either. Drowning isn't a pleasant way to die.

[System: Dear Host, he is behind you.]

She turns around and finds Fu Sheng watching her with his black and emotionless eyes. He has porcelain skin, tall and lean body, and hard jawline. His upturned eyes are exotic and intelligent. He smiles at her, amused by her startled expression. She bites her lips nervously and then, she gazes out of the window. She looks at him, judging her options.

"I am not an assassin," She tells him shakily. Though Fu Sheng is amused and finds her funny, she thinks that he is contemplating how to kill her. She recalls how she drank his blood without any inhibition. She has already offended him.

"Why should I believe you?" Fu Sheng's voice is deep and commanding. Huang Qiuyan opens her mouth to explain, but she closes it when she sees his grim expression. She swallows back her words. Pure-blooded vampires are scary. Those mindless vampires are dumb, but these vampires are sharp and too intelligent to trick.

[System: Dear Host, if you don't move now, you will never be able to leave. Though there are low chances of survival if you jump, there is a chance.]

There is death reaper with no chance of survival. There is a deathly jump with low survival chance. It's not hard for her to choose.

"You don't have to believe me." She climbs over the window and jumps.

Fu Sheng is shocked by her actions. He has seen fools who have done this before. But, he didn't expect her to do this. He tries to grab her on impulse, but she is already out of his reach. He doesn't think for a moment and jumps after her.

Huang Qiuyan's eyes are squeezed shut. She presses her palms to her ears.

[System: Dear Host, he jumped after you.]

Two cold arms coil around her tightly. She cusses the vampire king and attempts to push him away. Her strength might be enough to shatter concrete walls, but it is nothing compared to the strength of a pure blooded vampire who is more than four thousands year old.

"Let me go!" She digs her nails in his neck. "You stupid vampire!"

"Do you want to die that much?" Her little nails are barely a scratch to his skin. Her scent is intoxicating. Fu Sheng finds her distracting. He grimaces at her and looks up at the castle.

This idiot should be grateful for his help. How can he let his mate die foolishly like this? Though he has no intention of making a bond with this fool, he can't let her die before he finds out who sent her after him.

Huang Qiuyan realizes that this pure blooded vampire king can fly and he is taking her back to castle. Never! She won't return there. Look at his face! He hates her.

[System: Dear Host, surprise him and then, push him away. Dive into the lake.]

Surprise him? Huang Qiuyan racks her brain. She can't come up with anything. She looks into his eyes and says, "Vampire King, why can't you let me go?"

"You are my prisoner." He doesn't look at her when he answers her. His eyes are fixed on the castle. If he meets her eyes, he has a feeling that she would distract him. His minions are watching them curiously. When he goes back, he will make them run around the mountains for a week. How can they lose to a convert?

Huang Qiuyan makes a decision after hearing those words. She grabs his jaw and smooches his lips. In shock, Fu Sheng lets her go. She smirks at him and kicks him mercilessly between his legs before she falls into the lake.
