324 Communication is very important for a healthy relationship
Lith was confused to see Alexandra’s exaggerated reaction. Wasn’t it normal for royalties to have a few Emperor Ranks with them? Lith thought.
But right in the next instant, he realized that he had forgotten one thing. Alexandra doesn’t know he’s the prince!
Lith cleared his throat and looking at the shocked Alexandra, he said, “do you know who I am?”
Alexandra knitted her brows as Lith asked that, her shock to have vanished. “Isn’t it obvious? You’re darling, my darling.”
Alexandra flashed a small smile as she said the last line.
Lith and Emilia facepalmed as they heard that. This girl… wasn’t she too blinded by love?
Arya laughed out loud as she heard that and patting Alexandra’s head, she said, “my little sister sure is cute, hahaha!”
Alexandra became a bit confused as she saw everyone show such mixed reactions.
To not make her too confused and enlighten her, Arya said, “don’t be so blinded by love. I know you love him a lot, I do too, but you should know about him and tell him about yourself as well. Communication is very important for a healthy relationship.”
Lith and Emilia nodded. It indeed is.
Lith saw Emilia nodding and looking at her, he said, “hey, why are you nodding? I don’t even know anything about you. You didn’t tell me anything.”
Alexandra glared at Lith as he said that. “Same could be said about you, darling.”
Emilia smiled lightly as she saw that. ‘Phew, I am out of this crisis.’
Arya nodded, hearing what Alexandra said. Noticing her nod, Lith said, “hey, you didn’t tell me anything as well.”
“Oh my, I didn’t?” Arya covered her mouth and said in a fake shocked expression.
“Obviously.” Lith nodded.
“Ahem. Let’s not blame each other for it. We can introduce ourselves now as well.” Emilia cleared her throat and said.
“You first, darling. Tell me about you.” Alexandra agreed with Emilia and said to Lith.
“Okay. What do you wanna know?” Lith asked.
“Everything.” Alexandra smiled and said.
Lith nodded and said, “Alright. For starters, my full name is Lith Evure and…”
Alexandra nodded her head hearing that. ‘Darling has a nice last name. But Evure…I think I’ve heard it somewhere. Hmm…?’
Soon, realization dawned upon Alexandra her eyes opened wide.
“WHAT!?” Alexandra slammed the table and asked in shock.
“HAHAHAHAHA! That’s a nice reaction you have there, little sis.” Arya wheezed, it felt too funny to watch this.
Emilia covered her mouth and giggled as well, noticing this.
Lith smiled and said, “what you’re thinking is right. There’s only three people in this world with that name, one of them being me.”
Alexandra’s hair stood on their ends and she became shocked once again. “Da-darling is really from the R-Royal Clan!?”
Alexandra couldn’t believe it and asked again for confirmation. This was something too big of a news for her and also very important. She really needed this confirmation.
Lith nodded, affirming her words. “I am.”
“So, you’re the P-Prince!?” Alexandra asked with her goosebumps still being there.
“Yes.” Lith confirmed it.
“Oh my…” Alexandra put covered her mouth and slumped down on the chair. Tears started dripping out of her eyes as she realized this information.
Lith, Emilia, and Arya, all three felt something was off when they saw Alexandra cry so suddenly. The three immediately became alarmed and rushed towards her.
“What happened!?” Lith held Alexandra’s face and asked with concern.
Emilia and Arya asked her the same thing as well.
Alexandra didn’t say anything and hugged Lith. She started crying again after she did that.
Lith might know this but Alexandra and the whole Constantine Clan was really grateful to the Queen and respected and revered them. Lilith had wiped out so many clans and also killed the King, what more could they even ask for? The Constantine Clan’s vengeance was fulfilled by Lilith even before they did anything and for that, they were eternally grateful.
After Lilith’s children were born, the Royal Clan was made and came into effect. The Constantine Clan then respected the clan as a whole and bound themselves to be eternally grateful to this clan till the end of their lives.
Alexandra wasn’t born when Lilith wiped out everything but she had heard tales about everything ever since she knew how to understand words. She thus shared the same feeling as the other members of the Constantine Clan and now knowing Lith was from the Royal Clan, she couldn’t help but cry.
She wasn’t crying out of sadness, but out of pure joy. To meet the people of the Royal Clan was something she wished that happened before she died but who knew that she would end up entangling herself with one of the members itself!
Lith caressed Alexandra’s back and said softly, “Don’t cry. Don’t cry. It’s all okay.”
Lith had no idea why she was crying and so he tried to console her. Arya and Emilia did the same as well.
Alexandra cried for a few minutes while hugging Lith. Her face was covered up in snot and tears and so was Lith’s shirt. But Lith didn’t care about it and nor did Alexandra.
A few more minutes later, Alexandra took her face out of Lith’s embrace and looked him in the face to see if he was still there or she was just dreaming.
Lith looked at Alexandra’s tears and snot covered face. He was holding her face and he simply rubbed his thumb on her cheeks and cleaned her whole face by using a cleaning spell.
“Don’t cry.” Lith said softly and kissed her forehead.
“Sniff… Sniff… are you… sniff… real?” Alexandra couldn’t believe it and asked again to check whether she was dreaming or if everything was real.
Lith had no idea why she asked that but he didn’t feel annoyed by it. He simply smiled and said, “Of course. Do I look like I am not?”
Alexandra hugged Lith again as she heard this and started crying again. This was the last thing she wanted to know. She had her full trust in Lith and didn’t even bother to cross check if what he just said was true or not and believed him.
Lith, Emilia, and Arya, all were wondering what was up with Alexandra, but they knew they had to wait before they asked her anything.
A while later, Alexandra stopped crying and after ensuring that she was okay, Lith asked, “What made you cry like this? Did I do something wrong?”
Alexandra shook her head. “No, darling can never do anything wrong.”
“Darling can. He’s also a normal hu– vampire like you. Vampires aren’t emotionless golems, they can make mistakes as well. Your darling, that is me, is no exception to it either.” Lith almost said human in his previous sentence out of habit.
Alexandra shook her head and said firmly, “darling can never do anything wrong.”
Lith sighed hearing that. He gave up convincing her about this and asked, “so… what was it that made you cry?”
Alexandra looked at Lith and smiled. She hugged him again and said, “You.”
“Huh!?” Lith was dumbfounded.
Emilia and Arya facepalmed as they heard this.
Emilia looked at Lith and said while shaking her head, “You shouldn’t make her cry like this.”
Arya nodded. “Honey, she’s your lover as well, you shouldn’t do that.”
“Hey! Hey! Wait a minute before jumping to conclusions. Alexandra, what did I do?” Lith said hurriedly.
Alexandra soon realized the blunder she made. She turned her head to look at Emilia and Arya and said, “My apologies. Darling didn’t do anything.”
Lith, Emilia, and Arya, all became very confused as they heard this.
Alexandra could see that she had made a mess and so to clear it up, she got out of Lith’s embrace and said, “I am sorry, my emotions were a bit out of control. I’ll explain the reason behind it.”
Alexandra would become a love sick fool when she was with Lith but currently there were two other ladies present in the room as well and she was just a little bit rational and not too much lovesick.
It was just a little, however, and not too much.
Alexandra explained her backstory to the three and finally told them how the Constantine Clan was grateful to the Royal Clan and how much she wished to meet the members of the Royal Clan. She finally told them that she cried out of happiness as she realized that Lith was one of the members of this clan and not only that, he was the direct descendant of the revered Vampire Queen.
“Pfft! HAHAHAHAHAHA!” Lith laughed out loud as he heard that and Arya and Emilia laughed as well.
“It was just that!? HAHAHAHA!” Lith said and laughed again.
Alexandra blushed and became a bit embarrassed as she heard. She hugged Lith and buried her face in his embrace to hide her embarrassment. “Don’t laugh…”
“Sorry, sorry. Hahahaha!” Lith wiped a tear from his eyes and said while laughing.
“You scared us there, little sis.” Arya said.
“Indeed. You made us worry so much.” Emilia added.
“Sorry…” Alexandra said with a flushed face.
“It’s all good now.” Arya said and smiled.
Emilia nodded, adding to Arya’s reply.
Lith stopped laughing and looking at Alexandra, he sighed and said, “Ah, I should’ve introduced myself earlier. I regret not doing that.”
Alexandra looked at Lith and said, “darling… don’t say that.”
Lith smiled and holding Alexandra’s face, he said, “I am sorry.”
“No, no, don’t be.” Alexandra hugged Lith and said while shaking her head.
Lith patted Alexandra’s back and gave her a kiss on her forehead. He looked at Arya and Emilia as he hugged Alexandra they looked back at him.
The three just stared at each other for a few seconds and soon, all three smiled. They all got a similar idea and all three knew about it. They were so close to each other, they didn’t even need to communicate.
The three nodded their heads and Lith took out his phone and texted a certain person.
Soon, in just a minute, space fluctuated near Lith and…
