Chapter 521 The True Demon's Position
It became a lot more quieter when Cedric kept walking deeper into the graveyard. The only noises that bounced around the space was his own footsteps. Nothing except the bats made flying noises nearby, carrying a dark presence around the graveyard. He saw no one inside and little did, he knew that it was just another wicked game of him. He wanted him to act desperate in order to find him but too bad, Cedric had long known about his little games.
He stopped in his track when he spotted the indication of exit, steps away from his standing position. His brows drew together tightly, confusion sparkling from his features. Just when he thought of taking an u-turn, a voice froze him in his track,
" Tsk...still so punctual, aren't you?"
Cedric shifted his eyes on the way which was previously covered in smoke. It was out of his knowledge that there could be someone behind this smoke. He saw him sitting in a king like position, made of wood. After an entire decade, the siblings faced each others without any happy emotions, lurking behind it.
Cedric clenched his jaw, struggling to keep his wrath controlled inside. His fists kept tightening but one wrong move could destroy his entire plan. He saw the man who shared the same face like him except the secret birth mark that they shared.
Hayden Christensen greeted his brother with a sarcastic remark in his voice,
" Long time, brother! How fascinating it would be if I attended your wedding. Anyways, did you like my gift? "
He knew it! He should have known it from the beginning!
Except Hayden, no one would dare to send crow in his wedding. Cedric skipped his question, asking back coldly,
" Since you are out of your coffin already, what do you want Hayden?"
Hayden gave out a hilarious laugh. Unfolding his legs in a snap, he dropped his feet on the ground to stand up, saying,
" I should be the one asking you, brother. After all, it was you who put me in coffin."
Cedric didn't seem least regret for his action. He clearly knew that more harms would have done if Hayden stayed out of the coffin. Cedric blurted furrowing harder to guess his answer,
" Who let you out?"
It wasn't a casual question but a demanding one that needed to be answered. Without them, Cedric had no idea who was aware of his coffin. Now that someone had known about his existence, he needed to disclose this matter before it goes around in other's ears.
Hayden hissed grinning in sarcasm. Leaving his wooden position behind, he spoke pointing at another chair behind Cedric which appeared out of nowhere all of sudden,
" Why don't you sit down first and speak, brother? We have a plenty of time to discuss."
Cedric wasn't in mood to enjoy his wicked tricks. Skipping the part of his nonsensical questions, he spoke raising his voice loud,
" Hayden, I am not here to chat. You are disturbing into my private life. Why are you after Ayra? She is your sister-in-law. Don't think that I don't know what you do behind my back."
Hayden grinned widely this time and tiptoeing walking towards Cedric who didn't pull his eyes from him for a second. Hayden itched teasingly, approaching his brother in slow steps,
" I can feel that you care for her, brother. But.. what can I do? It seems like we both are destined to care for her."
Cedric hissed glaring at his shameless face,
" She is my wife and it should be only me who cares for him. There is no you and there will never be! Your concern is only related to your selfish motives."
Hayden's expression turned grim as he let out a short laugh in disbelief. Lifting his eyes up to see him again, Hayden retorted with a big grin, crossing over his features,
" Selfish motives? I guess, we both wanted her for our own motives, brother. What makes us different then unless you are in love with her or are you?"
Hayden raised his eyebrows together, staring at Cedric playfully whose expression became nervous slightly. He was good at hiding his true answer so that Hayden would never find out. Inhaling a deep breath, Cedric gritted his words out, his nostrils flaring up in rage,
" What..do..you.. want.. Hayden? The true Demon's position? I can speak to him if you want."
Hayden shook his head denying and muttered without any hint of emotions,
" No, brother. There is no fan to gain something which isn't snatched from you. I don't want any charity from you. I like to see you hurt."
Cedric narrowed his gaze darkly, snapping his head on the other side to stare at him questioning,
" Then..."
Hayden grinned up widely, tiptoeing around him one more time to emphasize each one of his word slowly,
" No doubt, we both will be hated by her after sometimes. Then why don't you take the true Demon's position and I will take Ayra?"
Cedric barked already failing to keep his temper down,
" She is your sister-in-law, Hayden..how can you.."
Hayden cut off, snorting back with a smile,
" She is my slayer. I can't be killed. So there's only one way that she should stay beside with me. You don't even love her. Then why are you insisting to hold her back on your side?"
Cedric stared hard at his face, failing to give any response as he really never understood how love felt. So he stayed in puzzlement as Hayden kept chanting his demand one more time in a loud voice,
" So it's settled then. You will get the true Demon's position and I will get her, the hybrid princess, Ayra Chole..Opps..."
He gave a big grin, correcting his words midway,
" Or should I say, Ayra Christensen?"
