Chapter 209: Take my position

"Sir, should we go on the same path," Lucas asked, and Sebastian narrowed his eyes.

"The princess said she walked straight from the lake. For around an hour or so," Sebastian said as they got from their cars.

"Let’s not go with our cars. The vibrations in the ground will alert those vampires even from a five-kilometer distance because it’s so quiet at night here," Sebastian said before he took off his overcoat and placed it on the car.

"Come switch with me," Sebastian said.

Lucas - "..."

"Sir, I don’t understand...." Lucas coughed.

"Wear this overcoat that’ll show your royalty and this mask. I will cover my face with this cloth. The rogue vampires will naturally think that you are the prince, and all the main men will attack you," Sebastian said as if it was the most normal thing to say.

Lucas - "..." You mean to say wear this coat, pretend like a prince and die?

"I will be the bait to lure all the leaders out of their den because they would want to end you as soon as they see the young vampire prince walking to them since they are well aware that they are created to kill the youngest prince," Lucas said, and Sebastian clicked his fingers.

"Exactly. And when those leaders will be attacking you, I’ll kill them," Sebastian said.

Lucas didn’t like the idea, and no one needed to voice it out for him. His face was saying it all, and Harry and Ambrose bit the inside of their cheeks to stop themselves from laughing at his scared face.

Lucas took a deep breath and started, "But, sir, this won’t work. I definitely don’t look like a prince, and it’s all about the aura and -"

"I will suppress my aura," Sebastian said, leaning on the car.

Lucas nodded with a dejected sigh that he kept to himself. It’s not like his words were going to make any difference here.

The plan was already made. As much as Lucas disliked the idea of pretending to be the prince, his master, this plan was really brilliant to lure those evil creatures.

"Can I demand something? As my last wish?" Lucas asked as he wore the overcoat, and Sebastian, who was about to take off his mask to give it to Lucas, paused in his actions.

"What is it?" Sebastian asked.

"Can you attack and kill them when they are ABOUT TO attack me, rather than attacking them when THEY ARE attacking me?" Lucas emphasized the important parts of the sentence, and a snicker left Harry’s mouth, making Sebastian raise his brows at him.

"I am sorry, sir," Harry stepped back, and Sebastian looked back at Lucas before smirking.

"Sure. Anything else?"

"Delete my browsing history before giving my phone to my family," Lucas said before taking a deep breath and extending his hand to take the mask. In a split second, Sebastian took off his mask and was already tying the cloth on the back of his head.

"Are we ready to go?" Sebastian asked everyone, and they nodded.

"Make minimal noise. One mistake, and you won’t have to worry about them eating you. I’ll do you the honors," Sebastian’s eyes turned dark like blood, his primal royal prince’s nature taking over that he suppressed as much as he could before they ran with the fastest speed they could.

Of course, Sebastian being the strongest, reached the place first, and his eyes narrowed when he noticed around 50 or so men sitting around a campfire.

They were quite good in numbers. If these many people were here, he can’t even estimate how many must be in those tents, in the forest, or in the labs where they were being created.

Sebastian raised his hand for everyone to stop and hide behind the bushes or trees or whatever they could find.

"Lucas, come forward. A prince must go forward and lead the battle," Sebastian said through the mind link, and Lucas’s hands trembled.

He always shivers in awkwardness whenever his own prince is eating those vampires, and now the prince is asking him to lead a battle against hundreds of vampires who eat vampires.

"I...I don’t think I have gotten into the Prince’s pretense quite well, sir," Lucas said through a mind link, making everyone hear him, and Sebastian turned around, looking straight into his eyes.

’At least get into the pretense of the son of the most powerful Duke? The presence of the most loyal secretary of Sebastian Marino? At least act as my real warrior, will you?’ Sebastian said.

Everyone looked at Lucas, visibly surprised when Lucas dropped all the boundaries he kept around himself to hide his aura.

Lucas has always been more powerful than most men in the entire Kingdom. It won’t be wrong to say that his power surpasses some princes in the third family line too. And why not? He was the son of one of the legendary Dukes.

Sebastian smiled at his man and nodded at him to go ahead. He observed as Lucas walked to some distance before making his presence known to the rogues.

"Well, well, well, isn’t this a party I should’ve been invited to? What is a group of rogue vampires doing here partying without their leader? The original vampire-eating prince," Lucas walked out of the bushes from the other side, his hand on his sword.

Sebastian wanted to rush to the tent and start killing them while Lucas was talking to the rogue vampires. He didn’t want his men to fight too much and risk their lives.

This was indeed a tough battle for his men because these rogue vampires would become stronger every time anyone would get a bit of powerful blood and flesh from the men on his team.

Seeing Lucas overacting like this, Sebastian didn’t know if this method would work because he didn’t want to risk his best man’s life either.

"We are honored to have the youngest masked prince here," Maze stood from around the fire, his hands clenched, ready to attack.

They had been living here for more than 10 days, and nothing happened, but now the vampire prince was suddenly standing in front of them.

Guess, it was really a mistake to leave that human girl. Even humans can’t be trusted these days. If he gets out of there alive, he will ensure to find that human girl first and squeeze her dry until the last drop of her blood is on the ground. Maze gritted his teeth.

He walked to the so-called prince, maintaining a good enough distance.

"Now tell us, what would you like? Our teeth sunken in your neck or your thighs? One person attacking you, or would you like the service of a couple of men coming at you at once?" Maze tilted his head, not at all giving away his fear.

Sebastian was surprised. He hadn’t thought these people would buy it, but now that they have, he should get to work soon.

Sebastian nodded at the Beta team he had created, and they rushed to where the tents were to kill those rogue vampires by catching them off guard.

He looked around at all the rogue vampires that were standing from their place, probably forming a plan to attack Lucas.

Sebastian turned around and nodded at his A team to go towards Lucas and help him.

He will have to see that no rogue vampire runs away from here alive while fighting them behind the scenes and ensuring that no rogue vampire sinks their teeth in his men’s neck, either.

The job was tough to look over so many people, but for his people, he will have to keep his ego aside and fight behind the scenes today.
