The place that should have been used as a place to punish Mew, now became very boisterous with people who screamed fear and also fight. From his seat, Gulf noticed the vampires were attacking people. Also of interest now is Mew who just kept silent to see Mr. Pond who was holding a vampire who wanted to attack him.
"Enough!" It was the Gulf Shout that made all the vampires speechless. Gulf controls those vampires to go keep away from people. All gazes were instantly fixed on the Gulf who looked extremely relaxed.
"Your Majesty, who are they? Why are their eyes red" asked Mr. Pan who was a little panicked.
"You can ask them. I think they know very well who attacked you" Gulf glanced at some of the higher-ups who were the ones supporting Weir.
People who do not know urge them to talk but they are still silent. Until a vampire approached them, and frightened them.
"Do you not want to talk? I can make them come back to attack you. That want you guys?"
"Your Majesty, what does this mean? You sent them here to attack us?" They were a little panicked, how could the king also deal with vampires.
"I'll explain it. They are not human but vampires. You must have heard it in a fairy tale. But vampires are real they drink human blood. Most of the people killed were because of them. For this I asked the hunters for help. They are not only animal hunters, but they are vampire hunters. They know very well about them, if you kill Mew sir, chances are the other hunters won't help our kingdom anymore. All this time, without pay they volunteered to help our kingdom kill the wandering vampires. So how'd you decide?" Everyone was busy with their own thoughts.
"Your honor, I feel the death penalty is too much for Mew because he didn't cause you any harm"
"Your majesty everyone respects you, so no matter how small his mistake towards you is still considered a big mistake. We have to keep punishing him"
"Hey old man! You want to kill him? I'll send these vampires to you!" Shouted Khom who was upset.
"I have a good bodyguard they can protect me"
"Basic stupid! You think ordinary humans like you can handle it?!" Mr. Pond who was arguing was silent.
"Master Mew forgive our mistakes. Don't blame the king's majesty, for it's our fault you were thrown in jail. Hopefully we can continue to work together"
"It's okay. I understand" Mew looked at the Gulf who noticed him. So this is a plan to release me? Where did the vampires come from?
"Your Majesty, may I ask you a question? Looks like the vampires are following you" The question that has been troubling everyone finally sounded.
"Because I'm also a vampire and I can control them" everyone was shocked including Mew and Bright. They were worried that his statement made everyone doubt him again.
"Cannot be. Your highness you...." Everyone looks scared.
"I'm human too. Not all humans are as good as vampires, not all evil vampires kill humans to drink their blood" Gulf noticed. No reaction, made him worry. It was a very risky decision when he wanted to confess to everyone and now he saw that people's bodies were shaking in fear.
Huh! I will never be accepted here. Why do I expect them to accept me so easily, like a fool!
Gulf smiled, but his heart was in great pain now seeing the reaction of the people.
"Why are you quiet? You guys scared of me?"
"Not your highness. Maybe some of us still need time to accept it but I'm sure everyone will accept it. Even so, you've done everything for us. We won't forget that"
"I understand if you can't accept it yet, but I want you all to know about me. To be more complete I will spread an official statement about me. You'll know the details later" Gulf knows very well. Those who believe in him will begin to doubt him. But he's trying to be open to everyone now.
"alright. I don't think there's anything else to discuss except you guys, I want to talk to you guys. Meet me in my room" Gulf looked at the crowd of Weir's supporters and immediately got out of his chair. Bright did not understand a little, then what should he do now?
"The noble vampires..." Vampires attack and kill each other. Of course the Gulf controls it. Bright slightly grimaced to see the vampires killing each other.
"Done everything!" Gulf orders Bright after feeling all the vampires are dead. Mew stared at the Gulf's departure from a distance, he wanted to see him but now the Gulf still had to deal with those people.
...****************...
The atmosphere of the Gulf room seemed so tense.
"Just go. I already know about you guys supporting Weir. So I want to know where he is now?"
"Your Majesty really doesn't know where he is now"
"don't know? Well then I change the question. What were you guys doing at the Fash store a few days ago?"
"Fash Shop? Your Majesty we don't understand anything"
Brakk!!!
Gulf kicked his desk until everyone fell silent. His patience is over. Gulf clenched his hands tightly and closed his eyes trying to calm his emotions.
"You think I'm stupid?! I saw you enter the place" Someone suddenly kneeled down making the others shocked.
"The noble in the shop is a secret room. We usually meet Mr. Weir there. Please don't blame us. We're forced. Otherwise, Mr. Weir will use his vampires to kill us" the already-impossible Mr. Kla revealed everything. Others wanted to deny it but in their little hearts, Mr. Kla's actions were correct.
"Even he told the vampire to kill Mr. Nat. We can only obey him. Forgive us your majesty. We deserve to be punished" Mr. Kla prostrated in front of the Gulf as he continued to apologise. The others could not say anything more if someone had leaked it and they also prostrated to give Gulf a salute.
"Your Majesty forgive us. We do it just to protect ourselves and our families"
"Well I'll forgive you but I want you to do something for me" Everyone looked at each other wondering what the king was planning.
...****************...
Gulf walked towards his room, but from a distance he saw Mew walking towards him. Somehow he got nervous and he changed direction and turned the other way. Mew who saw it also accelerated his way to immediately chase after the Gulf.
It was unlucky for the Gulf as he instead headed towards the crowd of higher-ups who were still in the palace.
"Damn! Why are they still here?" He turned around but Mew was behind him to surprise him.
"Why are you avoiding me?"
"I? No. gabe... Why should I avoid you. I have to go back to my room first phi" Mew held her hand and immediately pulled her away.
...****************...
Mew takes him into Gulf's room and directly squeezes him against the wall.
"Phi I know I was wrong not to tell you. But this is also for the sake of smoothness everything is okay"
"You know? How surprised am I when you want to kill me?"
"I'm sorry phi" Gulf looked speechless. Mew looked at him how could this person in front of him make his feelings unbecoming like this.
"You owe me because you cheated on me"
"Oh come on phi, I did it for you too" Mew did not reply and just looked at her.
"alright then. You can ask for anything you want"
"really?" Mew seemed instantly excited now making Gulf doubt his decision.
"eu... Yep... Get out of the way first"
"Then I want you to be my lover"
"Huh?" Gulf was surprised. It felt so sudden for a confession. Even though he already knew Mew liked him.
"Why are you surprised?" The Gulf never thought about this. All this time he only thought about his people and also he was too close to make a relationship with someone. Even when his father was still around, there were already some families who tried to introduce Gulf with their daughter but Gulf never responded. No one came after he became king. But what should he do now? Why is it so hard to say no to her?
"Phi I don't" Gulf couldn't continue his sentence because Mew's lips silenced him. Gulf had intended to push her but Mew held her hand tightly making her fall back into silence. Mew hugged Gulf's waist and gently sucked his lips slightly.
...****************...
After a while Mew let go of her kiss.
"Now you're my lover" Mew said with a smile that Gulf found a little annoying. Gulf pushed him, his face turning red now.
"You-you really! I'm not-"
"Oh what are you saying?" Mew cuts off his words and prepares to kiss Gulf with a slight pull on his chin until he is silenced.
"Alright whatever. Get away from me" Whether this is the right decision or not. Better save yourself first before you're finished off by him.
"Gulf"
"Otherwise?" A sword was thrown towards him which was instantly captured by the Gulf.
"Thank you. You not only helped me out but cleared my good name"
"Not a big thing. I should have done that, after all you've helped my kingdom" Mew nodded in understanding.
"So where did the vampires come from?"
"I hunted in the forest and caught them all night. I didn't expect to get that many wild vampires" Mew sat next to Gulf again hugging his waist and occasionally kissing his shoulder. His heart is so good now.
"Phi let go of your hand"
"No" Gulf just let it go.
"Gulf"
"Hmm?"
"Is it okay you tell them about you being a vampire?"
"No. I know there might be people who urge me to abdicate, but it's better. Getting more problems now and simultaneously solving them" Mew was made to gawk with Gulf thinking.
"Are you ready to face it?"
"I'm not the Gulf that used to avoid trouble. Now that I'm looking for trouble" Mew laughed and immediately kissed her cheek, she was anxious with her words.
A knock on the door distracts both of them.
"Let go of me or Bright will see it"
"Lake in!" Shouted Mew without letting go of his embrace. Bright entered awkwardly after yet another scene that left him shocked. He wondered if the king had anything to do with Mew?
Gulf did not stare at Bright, he was a little embarrassed to show his face.
"What's wrong?"
"eu's.... Dinner was ready, Your Majesty" Gulf simply nodded and told him to leave immediately. Mew held back his laughter, glad the Gulf no longer pushed him when Bright saw him.
