Chereads / My Dear Duke(BL) / Chapter 21 - Same Fate?

Chapter 21 - Same Fate?

[Warning: Mature Content]

Felix always gets that sexual tension every time that period comes. After he almost killed that woman when he couldn't control himself, he decided he would never try that again. He didn't want to be another kind of weird monster people would spread rumours about.

Asher was a male. Just like him. So what would go wrong? He never had any desire for men, so it was impossible for him to lose control. So he thought simply getting a little relief by helping each other wouldn't do much. Yeah...At least that's what he thought until he totally lost control and also did Asher.

Felix saw Asher flinching at his touch and it seemed like he was also having a hard time.

"Hng! Duke....That's en-!ough! Ha!Ah! Sto-!"

Felix's hot palms rubbed on Asher's hard penis, making Asher go crazy. In his entire life, it was the first time someone else touched him in such a vulgar way. It felt good though. But…coming back to his senses, Asher was just so shocked.

What was he doing there?

How did he end up with a man doing such a thing?

Just how come?!

Asher's mind was hazy, his head was dizzy. What happened next was the thing that shocked Asher the most. He knew he was close to climax, but surprisingly, weird enough he felt his back getting wet. Something flowed from his back, wetting the bed sheets.

When Asher noticed that, he looked at the duke to see if he noticed it.

Yeah of course, he saw it. And that's why his movements suddenly passed.

Asher didn't know what the duke was feeling at that moment.

But his face obviously showed shock and excitement.

But it made Asher tremble in fear when he was faced with the duke's question.

"You...Asher...Why don't you tell me why you have so many weird specialities? You have a scent, and see...your body works like a woman's. It's all wet...Asher, answer me honestly. Who are you really?"

Asher shuddered and he didn't dare to look at him again. What would his expression be like? Would he smirk by the happiness of finding a man from such a rare race? Would he be thinking of selling him? Would he use him as a breed machine?

No! He would not face that same fate again! He will never! He must escape from this duke. The first thing that came to his mind was running away. But, he had already decided to stay in the mansion because it was safe. No one would dare to touch him when he is a person under this duke. But now…was he gonna get himself in trouble for that fucking safety?!

So he thought of running away. But was he capable enough to do that?

He was a slave bought and owned by him. He was already a toy of the duke. From what else more did he have to run away? He was already the duke's. The reality hit hard and he could only make a lie to slip away from the situation.

'Does the duke know about omegas? He must know...He is a noble, isn't he? But he didn't ask me if I was an omega, did he? Maybe...does he not know? Can I make a lie?'

Asher immediately thought of a lie and answered with a very honest expression on his face, but still his eyes glaring away fearing his eyes might expose his lies.

"Duke...Please don't tell anyone about this! It's a secret I have been hiding all this time.."

"I will not! Just tell me what is so special about you?"

"Duke, I accidentally took some wrong medicines when I was a child and it changed me this way. I..."

"..."

Seeing the duke was silent, Asher paused. He got nervous because the duke was silent for a long time as he got off Asher, sitting on the edge of the bed, facing his back to Asher.

"I see..."

The duke believed it.

'Really? He believed it? Was my acting that good?'

Asher was a little excited but quickly changed his expression back to that pitiful servant.

"You can go now. Let's talk the next day. Get lost before I change my mind."

Asher wondered what made the duke suddenly change his mind. Did his words touch his heart?

"Thank you...Please have a good night."

Asher quickly pulled up his pants, running away from the room not even sparing a glance at the duke. 

After Asher left, the man sitting on the bed sighed.

Felix's eyes only glaring down, his fingertips trembling, his lips pressed together. He seemed deep in thought.

Yeah, he went into deep thoughts from what Asher said.

Asher said he took the wrong medicine as a child and faced such problems.

But...

Wasn't that what also happened to him?!

Didn't he also accidently drink his father's cup which had been drugged and ended up with such weird symptoms?

'I never thought there would be someone else who had the same experience as me.'

Even though Asher didn't explain things, just hearing the reason why he was like that heated him up. He also faced the same so he didn't even have a mind to ask further questions from Asher as Felix was regretting his whole useless childhood.

The duke ran his fingers through his hair, his mind running back to that past where that one juice cup changed his whole life into this mess.

Asher had dug some serious things in his heart this time. The beginning point where Felix's life turned out miserable like this.

Because he drank from the wrong glass...

It happened when he was around 6 years old. His father, the former duke, was not an affectionate person to either Felix or her mother. He just wanted a successor so after Felix was born, he didn't spend much time with the duchess as the only thing he wanted from his wife was finally done.

The duke had a mistress. Actually, she was the one he had been in love with for a long time. Rumours said they had been in a romantic relationship ever since both of them were 16 years old. However, he was forced to follow an arranged marriage and ended up marrying Felix's mother.

His lover was from a low-ranked family so he had to follow his parents' orders and enter this tasteless life where he still didn't want to give up on his lover despite the fact he got married.

He needed a successor. And it must be from his wife too. That was the only reason he was able to make up his mind to spend their nights in bed. The very next day he was informed about his wife's pregnancy, he stopped visiting her and only focused on his lover.

The duchess gave birth to Felix but hated Felix because she kept blaming him for being the reason for the duke to abandon her. She didn't take care of him properly but Felix still loved her mother until the day she died.

He hated his father because her mother hated him accusing him of making her life a hell. After all, it was his father's fault. If he loved his mother, none of these would have happened this way. His mother would love him. He wouldn't get cursed by his own mother.

None of those things didn't bother the duke as he placed all the responsibilities on Felix and taught him to be that perfect duke. He just wanted to fulfil his duty without any emotions getting involved in his path. Felix was just somebody in his eyes. Felix was that somebody he had to make suitable enough to take over his duties…

Felix wouldn't let his personal feelings run wild. He would hide his desire to play with other children. He would act like he was only interested in studies. But..he loved playing, relaxing, cuddling. The only problem was he never got any of those things.

He was born to be a leader so his childhood was miserable and very tiresome. He had to study a lot, listen to his mother's curses, and obey his father's every order. 

None of them were victims. Only he was the victim as he suffered from everyone. Yet, both his mother and father treated themselves as victims.

Felix knew her mother still tried so hard to win the heart of his father. But it never succeeded. He only has that one person in his heart. 

When more time passed, the duchess went crazy, yearning for her husband's love.

That's when she decided to let go of her love and entered the illusion of possessing him.

She thought love wouldn't matter anymore. As long as the duke would only crave her, it was enough.

Felix knew her mother's desires. But he didn't know her mother's plans to drug his father.

Which ended up him accidentally becoming the victim by mistake.
