Chapter 465: I will put you in the coffin!

Music Recommendation: Dances for Harp and Orchestra- Lavina Meijer

The old vampire smiled at his wife and said, "You were so angry that time, that I thought you needed some time to calm down. What better than the coffin I built for you and me to rest in."

Lady Ravette caught hold of her husband's shirt, crumpling it in her hand as if she wanted to mince her husband in the same style, "You built it for when we die, not to force me to hibernate without my will," the old woman glowered.

"That's enough anger now, Ravetta. I joined you for hibernation right after I put you and that's how much I love you," Vincent's grandfather tried to console his furious wife.

"Why don't you get back inside the coffin and I will believe it," Lady Ravette's eyes narrowed as she continued to glare at her husband.

Strix didn't look offended by his wife's angry words. Instead, he picked up one of her hands and kissed the back of her fingers, "So much love for me, I can feel it coursing through your veins. My lovely Ravette, I did what I thought was best, won't you forgive me?" He kissed her fingers again while looking at his wife.

Lady Ravette looked like she would tear her husband's head off his body if she were given the chance or maybe the shirt. Her hands even went to his neck, curling it.

But something unexpected happened, and Eve blinked when the old couple embraced before they kissed each other. She heard Vincent remark next to her,

"Grandmother was lying when she said there was a human who died when it came to grandfather. She was the human, who died and turned into a vampiress."

Eve's eyes widened at his words. She hadn't expected that. She asked in a low voice, "Shouldn't she be sympathetic about humans then?"

"It is like this. Once you get the taste of power, position, money and other things, you will want to keep it rather than have someone else sully and bring unhappiness. I heard she was always like this, even before she was turned. She was stronger than the average human, and couldn't wait to be a vampiress."

After a few seconds, the old couple pulled away from each other's embrace. Lady Ravette murmured to her husband while they deeply looked into each other's eyes, "I am still very angry at you and would like to have you in the coffin by my hands."

"All in good time, dear. Who better to me there than you, my wife," said the old vampire.

"Better," Lady Ravette glared and said, "I lost a lot of time with my grandchildren."

Strix let go of his wife's waist and took a step forward to take a better look at his grandson and the woman standing under their roof. He said to Vincent,

"Look at you all grown up. You were so small when I last saw you and now you have grown."

"Thankfully, some of us grow and don't stay young," Vincent remarked, and Strix nodded with a smile. The older man placed his hands on his grandson's arms to hold him, watching the silver hair.

"You make your mother proud, Vince. To carry her in your appearance and memories," Strix stepped forward and hugged his grandson, patting his back. Vincent raised his hands and hugged back the old man, who seemed happy to see him. "Oh, how I have missed you! Where is Eduard and Annalise?" He stepped away from the hug.

"They are back in Skellington and they would be ecstatic to know that you both are finally awake," Vincent responded to his grandfather.

Strix then looked at Eve and said, "The last time I remember, my granddaughter had black hair... and was not a human."

"The girl is not a human, Strix," Lady Ravette corrected her husband, walking to where they stood and standing next to him.

"Oh, dear, that is exactly what I said. Marceline was not a human," Strix said with a frown. "This is not my granddaughter."

Vincent put his hand around Eve's waist, bringing her close, and this had his grandfather frown as he stared at them. Vincent said, "This is my wife, Genevieve or Eve. Your granddaughter-in-law."

Strix looked offended, "What happened to waking us up when it was time for our grandchildren to get married? I thought I was quite clear with it. I am going to have a word with Eduard about it," he then looked at Eve and said, "She's as pretty as the flower or the moon, isn't she? Which family do you come from, Genevieve?"

Eve offered the man a respectful bow and replied, "A family who has had excellent governesses."

Lady Ravette's eyebrows raised, and if it were a human, she would have something to comment on, but she had seen first-hand that Eve was no ordinary human, and there was more than what met a person's eyes. She said, "She's not a human."

"No?" Strix looked at Eve.

On the other hand, Carla frowned, and she was somewhere relieved. Relieved that her mistress hadn't tried to kill this woman to turn her into a vampiress. But she wasn't a human?

Vincent said in a low voice, "It is a secret, and we would very much appreciate it if you kept this to yourselves."

"But you didn't tell what she is," Vincent's grandfather looked curious, as if wanting to get to the bottom of it.

As pleased as Lady Ravette was with Eve's ability and skill, a quick frown made its way to her face. She said, "Please don't tell me that she's a witch..." She raised her hand to press her forehead.

"Vincent has always been an odd boy when he was young, but I don't think he would pick a witch as his partner," Strix looked at his grandson and said, "You didn't, did you?"

Vincent clicked his tongue and replied, "I did. I just couldn't resist Eve's witchy charm and fell head over heels for her."

Lady Ravette pursed her lips, while her husband leaned towards her and whispered, "Don't go offing her now. Our grandson has been a little prankster since he was little, who enjoys yanking people's chains."
