Vampire / 4.16 : The most fulfilling life

Yawen gaped at Yuning. When he woke up from his stupor he asked:

"Your majesty, what are you talking about?"

Atlas asked:

"Wasn't he clear? Your family will be dethroned and the Lan will rule in your stead."

Yawen hissed:

"Shut up!"

He looked at Yuning and saw that his eyes were dark. When he felt his overbearing essence he took a step back in fear.

"Speak correctly to my beloved unless you want to lose your head."

The entire room shuddered and swore that they'll never disrespect Atlas. Yawen looked at Yuning confused. Why would he dethrone his family and why isn't the needle working on Yuning?

He looked around for Xinzhi but still couldn't see him. Atlas asked:

"Do you want me to get Xinzhi?"

Yawen frowned, before he could answer Atlas had already flown out of the room and came back holding something. When he tossed at his feet what he had been carrying he took a few steps back horrified and fell.
