My Vampire Prince's
Knowing the Truth Part 3

Rize was stunned to hear that Coral was walking from three in the morning from her home to Rize's house in a school uniform.

"Why are you doing that? Why didn't you call me and tell me to pick you up?"

Coral looked at Rize's drink glass. Coral knew now, what a drink it was, but strangely Coral did not feel nausea or vomiting at all.

"I want to walk and think about what decision I'm going to make."

Rize looked in wonder at Coral. What decision does her boyfriend mean?

"Coral, were you home tortured again by your family? I'll meet them." Rize moved from her seat.

"You're the one who tortured me, Rize," Coral said with trembling lips.

Rize stopped her steps and looked at Coral who was still sitting speechless in her place.

"I? Tortured you? Whatchu mean?" Rize took a serious look at Coral who was behind her.

Uncle Helius who suddenly came with a plate of fried rice and a flat egg made the two people immediately seem to behave no longer awkward.

"Sorry, is Uncle bothering you?"

"No. Uncle, put the food in there, and Coral, you better eat first, after that we'll go to school soon or you don't want to go to school first?"

"I want to go to school and graduate soon." Coral who was very hungry because of walking had spent fried rice up to half a plate.

"What's good, Miss?"

"Enak, Uncle, thank you. Rize, you're not eating?"

"I don't like food like that. Anyway I'm drinking enough of this."

"You never eat, Rize" Coral said.

"Coral, tell me, what did you mean by saying that I was the one who tortured you?"

Coral looked at Rize with tears falling on her cheeks. "Why are you bad for me, Rize? Why have you been lying to me all this time?"

"Lied about what?"

"Don't deny it anymore, Prince Autum Rize. You don't eat, human food and you don't sleep, in front of you it's blood, right? I know all Rize. I already know." Coral's cry sounded louder now.

Rize just fell silent in place letting her lover cry as much as he could.

"Miss Coral, what do you think of Young Master Rize?"

"Let him, Uncle. Let her be satisfied first cry so she feels relieved."

"Why do you have to lie and hide something this big from me, Rize?"

"What am I hiding from you?" Coral wiped away her tears and stared nanar at Rize. "Do you know I'm a vampire now?"

"Miss Coral, Young Master Rize is not a vampire. If he's a vampire, he'll definitely bite you" said Uncle Helius.

"He didn't bite me because he loved me, Uncle. Or he has other intentions for me." Coral looked at Rize flatly.

"But-." Uncle Helius looked puzzled as he wanted to keep denying Coral's words.

"Why don't you just fear me like that first time and come here instead?" Rize cut off Uncle Helius' speech.

"Because I love you and trust you." Coral pulled out a memory card and showed it to Rize.

"What's that?"

"What?"

"I want you to destroy it because here too there is evidence of who you are, Rize."

"You want me to destroy it? Wh why? Aren't you afraid of me? I've exterminated that man, Coral," Rize said casually.

Coral shook his head slowly. "I'm not a man who doesn't know how to return. Dre is a man who has a rotten heart and to me he deserves to be annihilated so that no woman whose future is ruined because of his deeds." Coral looked visibly angry considering what Dre was about to do to her. Rize showed her slanted smile hearing what Coral said.

Rize's car stopped in front of the school building. Rize went down and opened the door for her lover. Rize held Coral's hand and they walked over with the face of the Sumringah visible on Coral's face.

Rize had already told him all about himself and there was something that made Coral really not afraid of Rize because Rize said that he did not drink human blood, he only sucked the blood of the beast he hunted. The incident with Dre was an exception because at that time he was really angry to see Dre's actions.

"Why do they look like they're close back? Didn't they break up?" Luana looked annoyed to see Coral looking happy with the hand held by Rize.

"Who did they break up? Rize didn't go to school in a few days. He didn't leave Coral. If you look at it that's why I feel like they're a good match."

"What the hell are you talking about, Taza?" An enraged Luana pushed Taza's body, and he left from there.

The lesson hours started, but Coral didn't see any Zio there. "He hasn't been to school. Maybe he still needs time to get back to school."

School activities went well today until the break bell rang. Coral chose not to rest because she wanted to just read in class. Rize was sitting next to him accompanying him as well, but he didn't need to study because Rize had actually finished her school just now, only that she was indeed an immortal being. He still looks young.

"Coral, do you know about your helper ghost?"

"Huh? Ghost helper?" Coral looked in wonder at Rize. Why does Rize know about the ghost helper?

"He's me. I've been watching you at home and wherever you are."

"Are you serious?"

Rize nodded slowly. "I know everything you do at home, I also know how your mother and two stepbrothers have behaved all this time."

"So, you're the ghost of my helper who's been looking after me all this time?" Coral saw with a grain of tears that almost dripped.

Rize's hand gently rubbed Coral's tears which finally could not be dammed anymore.

"You don't have to cry. Now I won't let you get any more torture from your family."

Coral quickly hugged the body of her lover. "Thank you for taking care of me."

"Don't hug me like this, Coral."

"Why? You shy?" Coral hugged her lover tightly.

"Not embarrassed, it's just that I'm afraid it'll get out of control and --." Rize was silent for a moment.

"And what?"

"I kissed you. Without me letting go."

Coral instantly released his embrace and shifted his body slightly away from Rize.

"A vampire has a human-like desire, yes?" Coral lowered his voice.

"of course. We there also have offspring like humans in general. One day I'll take you to my castle and I'll introduce you to my mom and dad."

Coral immediately retorted to hear what Rize had to say.

"Meet your parents? I'm not ready, Rize."
