Chapter 147



He held out his hand for his wife and said with a wide smile on his face, “Let me show you the proof that vampires aren’t as boring as you might think.”

“I never said that,” Anastasia mumbled and clung to her husband’s arm rather than holding his palm.

Caspian didn’t mind that. Rather, he folded his arm so that it would be easier for his wife to hold onto him. And he proudly said, “I know you didn’t say that. But let me show you anyway.”

Before beginning their walk, Caspian darted his eyes around the area.

He spotted his royal guards on rooftops, on the street, and inside some of the shops. They were all dressed to blend in with the common folks so as not to announce to everyone that the King was around.

Caspian then looked around in front of him.

A few of those who noticed him and also recognized him gave a respectful bow to him. The others who were unaware of the King’s presence amidst them simply continued with their thing in an unbothered manner.

Caspian looked at his wife. She looked a little restless, so he patted her hand and reassured her, “Don’t worry too much. They all are busy in their own world. They won’t even notice us.”

.....

Anastasia gave a short smile to Caspian and looked ahead of her.

Since the day was starting to get cooler, a lot of vampires of the capital were out and about.

Some of them were taking a stroll around the street, some were gathering in small groups and making plans for the night, while some were browsing the ancient-looking shops.

In short, the capital was a hubbub of laughter and talks.

Until now, Anastasia had only been around the royal vampires and the vampires who served them. And she was used to seeing them acting very sophisticated and composed.

But now that she was amidst the common vampires, she saw that they were not much different from the humans. They did look somewhat more reserved than the humans, but they were enjoying themselves and celebrating their daily lives.

Caspian and Anastasia slowly walked forward.

Caspian didn’t need to explain much to Anastasia since everything was pretty much self-explanatory.

The shops and stores mostly offered fashionable clothing items and decorative items. Some of them sold pieces of art, while some sold musical instruments.

Anastasia could see how almost all of the vampires were dressed elegantly.

‘No wonder there are so many stores dedicated to fashion items,’ Anastasia thought to herself.

And she also noticed how some of the vampires had humans following them. It looked like those humans were the blood servants, considering how they had several bandages on their wrists.

After walking for a while, Anastasia’s eyes fell on one of the buildings that had soft music coming out of it. She could see a lot of red eyes entering that building while wearing sparkly clothes and with heavy makeup on.

“What’s in there?” Anastasia asked curiously.

Caspian took a glance at that building and replied, “It’s a place where commoners gather for a group dance.”

“It’s a ballroom then?” Anastasia looked at Caspian and raised her brows.

“Er...” Caspian scratched his forehead and replied, “I think it’s rather a place for performing wild dances. I heard it’s not that sophisticated to look at.”

“Ah!” Anastasia nodded and then averted her gaze to the other side of the path.

A whimsical smirk appeared on Caspian’s lips. He slowed down the pace of their walk and asked his wife, “Do you want to go there and watch? Or maybe, we can also dance in a song or two?”

Anastasia furrowed her brows and immediately shook her head. “You just said that it’s a place for the commoners. I don’t think a King should go inside such a place.”

“Well, they won’t know that I am the King.” Caspian grinned and quickly pulled Anastasia towards one of the stores nearby.

“Caspian? Where are we going?” Anastasia asked while trying to keep up with her excited husband.

Caspian looked back at her and vaguely answered, “You’ll see.”

As she had suspected, he led Anastasia inside a store that sold shiny and over-the-top dresses.

“Caspian! Don’t tell me we are going to wear those!” Anastasia asked in a breathless whisper.

Caspian simply gave a knowing smile and gestured for Anastasia to enter the shop before him.

Anastasia drooped her shoulder and shook her head. “Caspian, no!”

“Caspian, yes!” He held Anastasia’s wrist and pulled her inside the shop.

Two of the royal guards soon came and stood outside of the shop so as not to let anyone enter. And one of them ran inside to clear the shop if any other customers were inside.

“Hey! What do you think you are doing by asking my customers to leave?” the shop owner, a middle-aged woman shouted at the royal guard who had asked two of the customers to leave the shop at that instant.

Anastasia didn’t like that they were causing inconvenience to the store owner and the customers.

The guard glared at the shop owner and said while asserting dominance and gesturing at the monarchs, “You are in the presence of the King and the Queen. Show your respect to them.”

The demeanor of that lady flipped like a coin. She had a huge grin on her face when she glanced at the King and the Queen. “My sincere apologies, Your Majesties.” She almost touched the counter that was in front of her with her forehead while bowing to the monarchs.

“Good evening, Your Highnesses. How may I be of your service?” she asked while glancing at Anastasia’s eyes.

Anastasia turned to look at her husband and tugged on his sleeve. She was gesturing to him that she didn’t want to buy anything and that she didn’t want to go and watch others dance.

However, Caspian didn’t listen to his wife and instead looked at the shop owner. And he ordered, “Show your best dresses for both of us.”
