The Masked Vampire King's Accidental Bride-Chapter 687: Enjoying rides

Sebastian looked at the girl sitting beside him with a beaming smile on her face. He couldn’t move his gaze from her smile, her radiating face that seemed so excited as she was buzzing with happiness that was surely contagious.

"If you feel scared, hold my hand," Elliana whispered, and he felt his lips twitching.

She was indeed daring to tell the prince that.

"You do know that I am the King of the vampire kingdom, the named monster and the beast of the supernatural world, right?" Sebastian asked.

Elliana nodded.

"And for some reason, people fell under the misconception that the beast doesn’t feel pain or gets scared of things? Why did you allow them to think this? Do emotions make people weak?" She asked.

Sebastian gulped. He definitely had a fitting reply to her question. Do feelings and emotions make you weak? Probably not, but expressing them in front of the wrong people indeed makes you weak.

It was like bleeding in front of the crocodiles. They never have any good things to say to you or support you in any form, but they would surely try to show fake sympathy to get close to you, and once you lean onto them for support, they would bite you where it would hurt you the most. And at that time, they don’t care if you die either. For them, their unsatiated hunger is everything that matters.

He had so many things to say, but he didn’t want to spoil her innocent mindset for some reason. He wanted to protect it.

"Okay. I will lean onto you them," Sebastian said.

Elliana moved her hand closer to Sebastian, not even knowing how deep his words meant, as the guy kept looking at her.

The ride went to the top slowly, and Sebastian looked at the girl, flailing her legs and buzzing with nervousness as her heartbeat picked up pace.

She told him to grab her hand, but she was the one who tightened her hold on his hand.

This was the sixth ride she enjoyed in the Carnival, and she rated it the most horrifying one. He was happy that she chose him as her partner willingly this time.

Her reason? She said if something happened, he was sure he would take her and jump down as he jumped from that cliff. It was twisted, but as long as she was willing to trust him, he was ready to be her Superman at her beck and call.

"It’s going!" Elliana screamed loudly, paired with all the other people, and Sebastian chuckled to himself.

It was such a contrast. If it had been anyone else, he would’ve found that person irritating and wanted to throw them away from him because they were screaming, but this girl. She looked too cute to be angry at.

He looked at her hands, that looked like they wanted to squeeze the blood out of his fingers because of how tightly she was holding onto him.

"Mr. Sebastian, you scream too. It’s fun," Elliana said in the middle of the ride, and Sebastian’s ears turned red.

There was no way he was going to do this madness.

’I am not doing it. It’s childish," Sebastian said.

He looked away, but seeing her stopping what she was doing, he looked at her and couldn’t help but smack his lips in annoyance. She was pouting so hard that anyone could guess what was happening inside her head.

’I have never done such a thing and don’t know how to do it," Sebastian said. He didn’t want her to scowl over something as small as this.

"Is that so? Then it must be awkward for you," Elliana said, and he nodded, making her nod in return.

"Well, I am not choosing to be the next partner for sure. You don’t know how to have fun," Ellaian murmured under her breath, but it wasn’t hard for Sebastian to hear her words because of his vampire hearing, and he couldn’t help but look at her helplessly.

Was she really rejecting him as her partner all because she couldn’t scream? That was so unfair.

After some time, the ride finally stopped, and everyone stepped out.

Lucas, who hadn’t gotten onto the ride in the name of inspecting the operator and to ensure he was using the machine properly, rushed to them with some chocolate shake that he came to know Elliana liked a lot.

"You must’ve gotten tired after screaming like that," Lucas commented, and Elliana blushed at his words before pressing her lips.

Sebastian looked at his subordinate who was taking care of her as if she didn’t come down after enjoying the ride but some kind of battle and shook his head.

"Are you hungry?" Sebastian asked no one in particular, and Elliana was about to nod at him and say she was famished because of using so much energy in screaming when she felt his presence.

She immediately turned around to greet her brother.

"What brings you here, King Nathaniel?" Elliana asked, rushing to him.

Nathaniel chuckled at her beaming expression. He noticed the redness of her cheeks and knew she was having fun.

"I am here to pick you up. You said you wanted to go to Aris’ birthday party. Have you forgotten? It was so hard to convince mother and everyone, but they finally agreed. However, no one wants to go there until you are," Nathaniel explained the situation to Elliana, who shook her head at the elder’s childishness.

"A birthday party?" Sebastian asked, not liking that the girl was leaving so soon. He wasn’t done enjoying her company, and they didn’t even get to sit on the Ferris wheel that Lucas told him was a really good spot to strengthen their friendship.

’Yes. It’s the birthday party of my half sister. AKA the daughter of the queen of the white witch kingdom," Ellaina said and she was about to tell Nathaniel that she was ready to go whenSebastian said something that made them look at him in surprise.

"I want to go to this party too. We are friends now. Aren’t you going to invite me?" Sebastian asked shamelessly, his attitude shocking them while Elliana looked at Nathaniel, unsure.
