Attempt To Save Herself

'K- king Cyrus?'

Agnes was unable to decipher what to do since it was totally unexpected that she would land on the balcony of king Saikaro. But of course, the mere realisation raised many questions within her that's why she was there in the first place.

'N- no. Is he going to kill me?'

She assumed that knowing that she was involved in unintentional provoking of Lord Hawthorne to make him commit the forbidden act. Thus, Agnes thought the king wanted to kill her by himself. 

Before she could say anything the silhouette of his highness appeared in front of her eyes, the king who was rumoured to be unnaturally handsome was true to the rumour!

Agnes had no choice but to give in to the temptation in front of her, her hazel orbs fell upon his face and she unknowingly studied his sharp features. 

'Is….is he the king?'

No doubt not everyone had seen him but in that particular moment she doubted her judgement because the man in front of her could not be real.

She was stupefied to see that man in front of her with long sleek hair which fell up to his waist and the face with a cold expression. 

'Is he King Cyrus Saikaro?'

Agnes was still unsure even after seeing the man who had been oozing a different aura.

The lady could visibly feel the difference between him and Curtis, that when Cyrus lifted his eyes up to cast a look at Agnes she unconsciously stepped back.

'Don't tell me today is the last night of mine in this world.'

She assumed again and confirmed that her thoughts were true because the cold gaze from those red blood eyes scared her. 

"You can leave, Curtis."

Cyrus spoke to his confidant who immediately took his leave and dismissed in the thin air like a smoke.

Agnes wanted to stop him but her words failed in the mouth and she could not utter a single thing. 

'No, no. I can't die here.'

She muttered to herself in heart knowing that she could not escape. 

Her anxious hazel eyes were darted on his cold face as she studied for any trace of merciful gaze.

Agnes knew she had to find an escape thus she immediately knelt which stunned Cyrus and his eyes widened.

"No, please. I beg for mercy, your highness."

Her trembling lips appeared sweeter to him as Cyrus' closely saw the woman kneeling on both knees in front of him.

"Please don't kill me. I...I would never come to Belle Morte again."

She tried to assure the king with her words while bowing and joining both hands.

Cyrus Saikaro wanted a revenge from her for killing him in the past life and because Agnes committed a sin, she was deprived off all the memories of her past including the counter curse she created.

'What is she blabbering about?'

Cyrus thought to himself while he stood there without a clue and had no idea what to say.

But he enjoyed seeing her in that state for sure, his ego got satisfied witnessing the once arrogant woman kneeling in front of him. 

'Yes, kneel. And beg for mercy!'

Cyrus muttered to himself figuring out that she did not remember a single thing from her past life. 

And it put him at ease because now he did not require any major plan to torture her, he could do anything he wanted to make her life miserable and hell. 

Like literally anything. 

'I like seeing you vulnerable, beg me the way I plead you to spare my life!'

Cyrus gritted while the air refused to brush against his clothes or to pass by that particular balcony. 

His expressions darkened upon hearing the words from the woman he had once loved dearly but who killed him. Agnes' tears did not move him even a slightest bit that could melt his heart.

But why would he hesitate not to take revenge or attempt a cold behaviour with her?

Cyrus took a step towards her but a pungent scent made him halt while Agnes fell back on her butt in fright. Of course, after witnessing that he leaped at her she assumed that King Cyrus would eventually kill her.

She stared at his handsome face when a pearl crawled down on her pink cheek and travelled down towards her cleavage, which made her appeal to him as the symbol on his forehead shone bright red.

Seeing his eyes changing color and becoming blood red Agnes knew she had to save her, or at least die less painfully since a vampire's bite was the last kind of death one would choose.

As soon as Cyrus Saikaro took one more step she subconsciously shot up and without hesitating jumped off the balcony!
