Criminal X : Epitome Of Evil-Chapter 567: The Son She Claimed

Gerald was now the King of the Vampires.

The King of Jasper Kingdom.

After one year, he met Pablo and told him everything was set.

He had five high dukes with him. Some Vampire Nobles were killed.

Strict laws were implemented.

Crimes began less and as time went on…

"There is no evil in my kingdom anymore, sir." Gerald declared.

Pablo nodded. "Are you sure it won't grow in the future?'

"Yes. I am sure. I have assigned guards in each corner of the kingdom and they all are responsible for keeping an eye on any possible evil doers. A crime even if it is as little as stealing a pencil shall be punished. But only according to the laws. Death shall be given to those who rapes or kill someone. And if the guards tried to take bribes from someone then they would be captured because the bats with cameras are roaming in the sky of Jasper. Nothing will leave our eyes."

Gerald explained the workings of his kingdom and Pablo affirmed it with a slight gesture of his head.

"What about the temples? The Gods?" Pablo asked the next question.

Gerald gladly answered. "That is done as well. We used the same system Damascus used in this kingdom. Now most of the wishes of the people are fulfilled and they believe in Gods more than ever. They pray regularly."

Pablo liked the news.

"Anything else?" He asked.

Gerald smiled. "Yes. There is one more piece of good news."

"What?" Pablo asked, not showing any kind of happiness.

Gerald didn't mind that and gestured his hand at Flashy.

"I have decided to make Flashy the crown prince of Jasper. He has become a fine young man and he learned the workings of the world during the past one year. Also…"

Gerald gestured his hand at his left side.

"He got himself a beautiful girl."

Pablo tilted his head and indeed, a girl was sitting on Gerald's left side.

She bowed at Pablo and Pablo frowned.

He knew that girl.

"Lashes?"

"Yes. Her name is that." Gerald said.

Pablo looked at Flashy.

"How did you manage to make her agree with you?"

Flashy laughed. "I am not the same, Boss. I have become a strong, capable man. I simply asked her nicely, we talked and met a few times and here we are."

"Then why isn't she seated beside you? What is she doing with your dad?" Pablo asked.

Instead of Flashy, Gerald answered this time. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"He will get her pregnant if I let her go with him. He can't control himself. So I have decided to keep Lashes away from him before they get married."

Flashy shrugged at Pablo, smiling in defeat.

Lashes' face flushed.

But Pablo didn't stare at her for long as her red face would remind him of Sera.

Lashes was the slave of Pablo and she was the prettiest slave after Hena. Flashy got her and Pablo was happy for him. But he wasn't able to show his happiness on his face. His face never found any expressions. He listened to Gerald and Flashy with a cardboard face.

"Anything more?" Pablo asked.

Gerald shook his head. "Everything is done from my side. There is no need to worry about the vampires and Jasper kingdom anymore."

"No bad news?"

"Yes. No bad news."

"Are you sure you are not saying this only because I said I will kill anyone if they share bad news?"

Gerald laughed. "No, sir. There is really no bad news. Everything is under control. I have never rested this full year to make sure your order is carried out. I think I did a good job."

Pablo nodded. "Sit down then."

Gerald obliged and sat back on his chair.

But before Pablo could move forward with the meeting…

"I want to say something." A woman spoke.

Pablo looked at her.

She was sitting between Flashy and Gerald. She was the same woman with wrinkles around her eyes.

Her eyes met Pablo's and she showed a warm smile.

"Thank you for taking care of my son, sir. I can't thank you enough. You made a mother so happy." The woman said. She was Flashy's mother. Tessa Rail.

She thanked Pablo and placed her hand above Pablo's left hand.

Flashy and Draxus watched with fear as Pablo might not like Tessa's hand on him.

But one year was a long time.

So Flashy and Draxus had no idea that Pablo would…

"No need to call me sir. I am like your son too." Say this!

And not only that, Pablo placed his hand above Tessa's hand.

He didn't smile but his voice contained softness. Softness they had only heard when Pablo was acting like he was nice. He talked softer to those whom he needed something in return. But now, Pablo's softness was real.

But fuck softness. Pablo had killed people just because they called him son, this was also the reason Flashy had warned her mom to never refer Pablo as son. However, Pablo flipped it down.

He allowed Flashy's mom to call him son.

What happened?

Everyone was surprised by that but Cupid had a smile on her face.

She really liked Pablo now. And she believed in loneliness, Pablo had become grateful for the people he had around him.

Nevertheless, no matter how surprised everyone was, no one raised any questions and also, it was a good surprise. They had no problem with that.

Tessa smiled and like the mother she was, she nodded.

"Stay strong, son. You did good."

Pablo held back his emotions after hearing her say that and let go of her hand.

He wiped his hand around his face and turned to his right.

After Jasper kingdom, it was time for the kingdom of the Elves. The Arcane.

He darted his eyes at the Queen of the Elves and she was as beautiful as ever.

She looked happier than before and she was sitting beside Draxus who was just at Pablo's right side.

Her name was Hena. The Elf.

She also loved Pablo. But now that Pablo looked at her, he got to know…

She doesn't love him anymore.
