27 A Vial of Poison

Elias was one of the servants of the castle who served the guests in the celebratory ball night yesterday. And after Beth was wounded by Caspian, he had offered to help her clean the wound and the bloodstains from her dress.

Beth saw that as an opportunity to use him to exact her revenge.

Elias easily fell prey to Beth when she made him dream about the Kingdom and a beautiful Queen.

She wove an elaborate fake plan where she said that after killing Anastasia, she would win over the grieving Kings heart first and get married to him. And they would kill the King together after which she would be crowned the Queen. She then promised to make Elias her King.

That too good to be true plan would easily take years but that didnt matter for Elias. A few years would pass by in the blink of an eye in their long life.

“Force her, trick her, I dont care. All I care about is the result.” Beth smiled as she caressed Elias lips with her fingertip.

“Leave that to me. I have already thought of a way to bring out the result in our favor.” Elias playfully bit Beths finger and sucked it.

Beth curled her toes inside her shoes in disgust but put on a bright smile on her face. “I always had my eyes on you, Elias. I regret not confessing to you sooner.”

She pulled her finger out of his mouth and added, “After our plan is a success, it is only a matter of time you and I will rule this Kingdom together.”

.....

Elias gave an evil smirk and smoldered his eyes to say, “I cannot wait for that day.” He instantly sighed and said, “Now I have to go back. Else the others will find out that I sneaked out of the castle.”

“Sure. Dont forget to meet me right here at midnight.” Beth then spoke a bit sternly, “And give me the good news.”

Elias pondered upon that matter for a while and suggested an alternative, “It might be too dangerous to come here at midnight. The investigation could be going on after the deed is done. So lets meet tomorrow at 12 during the day. Most of the vampires will be indoors at that time.”

Beth nodded her head and agreed, “Okay. We will meet tomorrow then. And celebrate our little success.”

“Until we meet again,” Elias gave a longing stare at Beths lips, and with a heavy heart, he parted from the woman who was just using him as a pawn.

Beths sweet expression almost instantly vanished from her face the moment Elias disappeared from her view. She glared at her finger with disgust and anger.

“And that disgusting servant had to do that!” She took out her kerchief from her pocket and aggressively wiped her finger. And she angrily threw the kerchief on the ground and stomped on it a couple of times.

She then clenched her fists and glared at the Kilerth Castle that appeared in a distance. She gritted her teeth and arrogantly blabbered, “I wanted to make you mine, Caspian. And you not only rejected me but also went as far as to humiliate me in front of everyone.”

“Its not just you who knows how to pay back. I also know how to hold a grudge.” She chuckled to herself and whispered, “Learned from the best.”

“Lets see how you will feel when I break your new toy,” She had a grim smile on her face as she turned around and ran faster than the wind.

Elias had been working in the castle for quite a few years and was familiar with the daily routines of those in the castle. So he managed to get inside the castle without being detected by anyone.

It was already evening. And he had to feed that poison to the Kings wife before she would have her dinner if he didnt want the poisoned food to be sent back untouched.

He had already planned out everything beforehand. All he had to do was put the plan in motion.

So without wasting any time, he visited the female servants quarter. He sneaked into one of the rooms and asked a startled maid, “Olive, did you find out what I asked you to”

Olive was the maid who was looking after Tilla. She was around 19 years old but had a babyface.

Olive gave a nervous smile and replied after a nod, “Yes. Tilla said that Her Highness has a sweet tooth.”

The vampire furrowed his brows and asked with a steely glance, “And am I supposed to know what food she likes by deciphering the words you said”

“Sorry. I meant to say she likes anything that is sweet, like desserts or candies.” Olive was clenching her hands together and was looking down the whole time.

“Hmm...” Elias rubbed his chin for a while and then gave an order to Olive, “Then take a cake and tea to Her Highness room without raising any suspicion.”

“Im-Im sorry, sir. But Im not supposed to.” Olive didnt understand why she would need to do so when she was not even assigned to attend Anastasia.

Elias scoffed and spoke very slowly and threateningly, “That is why I am asking you to do so without raising any suspicion.”

He immediately smiled to show his crooked teeth and then vaguely hinted at what he was planning. “Taking the tampered food to the Kings wife shouldnt be much of a problem though. The human maids and servants are all new so the others wont know who is assigned to whom yet.”

Olives heart sank when he mentionedtampered food. He had already threatened her to gather the information earlier and now, she knew what he was going to make her do.

And just like she had thought, Elias revealed his intention, “I have something special for Her Highness.”

Elias took out the vial that Beth had given him. And then took Olives hand in his cold palm, sending goosebumps all over her body.

“This is supposed to be lethal to humans,” he said as he placed that vial in Olives palm.

But Olive refused to hold that vial because obviously, she was terrified of the consequences if she would get intertwined in something as worse as murdering the Kings wife.

Even though she was scared of that vampire to her core, she pleaded to him in her trembling voice, “I already gave you the information that you needed, sir. Please leave me out of this!” The rims of her eyes were already glistening with tears.

“Oh, dont be mistaken that Im giving you a choice here, darling!” Elias forcefully closed her fingers to make her hold the vial properly.

He gave a mocking smile and threatened her further, “Drop it and I will drop you from the top of this building.”

Olives heartbeat was now drumming like crazy. She kept on standing like a statue while holding the cold vial of poison in her hand.

Elias then instructed her as though he was the head of the servants, “Before you leave for her room, pour the content of this vial in her tea. Make sure that you watch her drink the tea before you leave the room.”

He leaned close to Olives already sweaty face and spoke in a spine-chilling voice, “I think I dont need to remind you to keep your mouth shut...”

Elias snarled to show his deadly fangs and glared at her with his glowing red eyes. “...Unless you have a death wish.”
