Chapter 427 Let's Go Back To Before
(From Blue's Perspective)
I had expected something to happen. And something did happen. Although I did not expect him to actually lock me up, I expected something close.
Even though we had sex for more than a day, I did not feel as weak as I thought I would. Rather, I felt like I could even walk rather well.
"Dem, are… you… going to c-cook?" I asked.
The fact that there was no maid surprised me. And Dem telling me that he would do ten maids' work surprised me even more. He was a King, after all. It was kind of weird.
There was no answer. He had already left. I sighed and closed my eyes. Then, I took a good look at the chains.
They were made to restrain mages. I could break them using my power. But if Dem felt well, I would rather leave it be for a few days, at least, until he calmed down.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
I heard the noise of kitchen utensils outside the room. The place where he brought me was a mansion, but a vacant one. It was very clean and fresh though.
After half an hour, I heard his footsteps. He brought two plates with him. Rather than filling my hunger, I was dying to see what he cooked.
"It's not the best, but I don't think it's too bad," he said, placing one plate on my lap as I got up slowly. The smell filled the room.
It was chicken and veggie stir fry. "Wow, i-it… looks good…," I said.
"Go on. Taste it."
I took one bite. It was amazing. Who would believe it was the first time he cooked?
"It's… good!" I exclaimed. "Really… good!"
"Is that so? I'm glad you like it," he chuckled, giving me a kiss on the forehead. "Finish the whole thing, okay?"
"Uhm…"
When I was at Azure's place, it was hard for me to eat. I could not even bear the smell. But now that Dem cooked, I did not have any problem eating.
"You got skinnier, darling," he said.
"Hmm… I had… trouble… e-eating…," I said.
"Did they not give you any food?" he asked. I could feel his anger rising.
"T-They did… But… I was not… in the mood t-to… eat," I said. "B-Besides… something happened…"
"What happened?"
"Uh… Azure… I was… served steak… with… b-blood…"
"What?! You mean, it was not cooked properly?" he asked.
I shook my head. "L-Like a sauce… His enemy's… blood…"
I felt grossed out just thinking about it. The fact that I had even taken a bite of that made me feel gross. It would not surprise me if Azure even ate the flesh of his enemies. He was sick anyway.
"The blood of his enemy?" Dem groaned, squinting his nose. "Oh… Who does that? Are you okay, sweetie? I can't believe you had to go through something like that… Oh, for fuck's sake, who does something so gross?!"
"Today's food… is not… r-red, so it's fine…"
"Red food… Hmm, I will keep it in mind," he said. "Now, eat, darling. You need to gain weight."
"Uhm…"
"You know, I was going to discuss something with you after I would come back from the inspection," he said. Stay tuned for updates on empire
"I was… too."
"Tell me yours first."
"No, yours… You said… it first."
"Well, it's about our future. Yes, I still am not fond of kids, but I don't hate them. I wanted to tell you that maybe we could have a kid after your power is awakened."
"… Uh… I… I was going to… s-say the same… thing…"
"Oh, really? I guess we are on the same boat now," he said. "Now, I think you are too weak. Maybe after you get healthy, we can…"
"I am not… t-that weak," I said. "Besides… it's n-not l-like I will… get pregnant… right away…"
"So, you want to try?"
After remaining at Azure's place, I wanted a kid even more. It was like I wanted to create the perfect family that I wanted, to escape from the nightmare, to forget all about it.
"I just… won't t-take the… pills," I said.
"Yeah, but are you sure?"
"Hmm…," I nodded.
The reasons why we wanted a kid were different. For me, it was to build my dream family, to greet another member into our family. And for him, it was so I would not run away. My words were not enough to assure him.
We stayed at the mansion for quite a long time. Dem never unlocked the chains. He would cover my eyes whenever we made love. We had sex frequently, so it happened a lot of times.
"Please… Haa… Let… me… see you…Uhn…," I moaned and tried to take my blindfold off, but he held my hands tightly over my head as he pinned me down on the bed.
He did not say anything as he pushed hard inside me from behind. My stomach was feeling all funny.
I grabbed my pillow and dug my teeth into it in an attempt to cope with the pleasure. Because I could not see anything, the sensation was different and very intense. With my sight gone, I had no idea what to expect, so I always got surprised by every one of his moves.
"Ahh! Dem…! Oh…"
He grabbed my breasts and fondled them. I liked the pain for some reason. It went well with the pleasure.
"Ahh… Uhn…"
I felt his breath right on my nape and before even a second could pass, his fangs dug into the flesh of my shoulder.
"Ugh! Agh…!"
The pain was not unbearable, probably because of the pleasure. Werewolves had the habit to bite and mark their mates again and again during mating. Dem did that a lot. I also got used to it. Besides, I did not hate it. The sensation was unique.
There were a few scars on my body because of Dem's claws. Every single night, he had half transformed. It was a very rare thing. Only two in a million would face it. It happened when a werewolf failed to cope with their intense waves of emotions. They would grow fangs and their hands would turn into werewolf claws.
I had seen some pictures in a book. It looked quite horrifying.
But it was not the case with my husband. He could never be horrifying. In my eyes, he was always the same Dem.
Blood trickled from the wound; I could feel it. Dem licked the wound like he always did after biting into my flesh.
"Hnn… Haa…," I breathed sharply. These days, we did it way too much. I started to feel like it was going out of hand. But I never told him to stop. I also wanted him as close to me as possible just like he wanted me.
"Dem… Let me…"
He took the blindfold off. It took me by surprise. I did not expect him to truly take it off. I rolled on my back.
The fangs were sharp and bloody. The claws were huge and scary. But those eyes, it was my Dem. I touched his face and kissed him on the forehead.
"You are… still beautiful," I said with a smile, rubbing my hand on his cheek. "I… love you. I love… you so… much, honey…"
"Are you trying to make me feel better?"
"I… just want t-to let you… know t-that I… love you. I will… always l-love you, darling, no matter who you are. I-If you are… a monster, let me be the b-bride… of the monster. If you t-think… you are… a bad person, t-then, let us go t-to h-hell… together. We will always… b-be together. Always."
"Hell?" he chuckled. "You won't go to hell, my dear madam. It will be me. I will go to hell for what I have done to you, I should go to hell. I would have accepted any punishment, but I don't really want to die. If I die, we will be in different places."
"What about… we die… a-at the s-same time? We can be… t-together even after d-death?"
"Oh, my darling, I would be delighted to die with you. But if I die first, I don't want you to die with me. Although if it's you, I will be more than glad to follow you and I will do so," he said. "Besides, I don't think you should be talking about death, darling, when you are the daughter of the black lord himself."
I had told Dem about what happened. I had told him everything. I did not want to keep anything from him, so despite my mind being against it, I told him about my half-mortality.
"But… I… I am not… h-half mortal… yet," I said.
"You will be, just when your mind accepts it. Trust me, it will happen."
"What… i-if I don't? I… don't want t-to leave… you…
"I won't mind if you accept that. Just make sure you are ready to be with an old man when you will remain young and beautiful forever."
"Dem! I… I am not… accepting this! I will never accept… i-it! It's f-final! If you are not with me, I… don't… need this half-mortality thing! I need you!
I would… rather g-grow old with you!"
I wrapped my arms around him and held him tightly. "Dem… you can r-relax. Your wife… loves you with all her heart," I said. "I love you… more than anyone… e-else, darling. I will n-never… leave you, not i-intentionally. So, please… let's go back t-to the way… we were before.
Please, honey. Please…"
