Chereads / Mated to the Mad Lord / Chapter 19 - Lay together

Chapter 19 - Lay together

A low growl emanating from it's throat sent vibrations through Violet's body as she felt it lean against her. 

"Ple-please don't kill me!" she begged not understanding what the beast was trying to do as fresh tears slid down her face and continued, sobbing under her breath as she waited...and waited for what it would do. 

Time slowly went by until she could no longer cry any longer, as her body grew tired from the constant crying and she slowly began to drift asleep. Not aware of when she leaned back and into the soft fur coat behind her, falling asleep.

But a few moments had barely gone by when the beast which had been lying completely still on the bed slowly transformed back into a human, Cain. His body completely naked after his clothes had been torn apart in the transformation.

His gaze fixed completely on Violet who was fast asleep, with a sour expression on his face one that bordered on confusion. His curse made him incapable of controlling his beast and made him turn every night until dawn. The medicine was to ensure that the beast didn't completely taken control in a way like he had done once when he killed everyone in the mansion.

"This has never happened before!" He mumbled to himself leaning closer to the skinny man with slender features lying on the bed, fast asleep.

'Even if this was a plan, they wouldn't go as far as to give me this much control!' Cain thought to himself knowing that the fact that he had been able to gain control of his beast after biting him made Viole, different.

'Is it his witch's blood?' He wondered only to reject the idea since males couldn't wield the magic in their bodies. Yet, the more he tries to figure it out the more annoyed he became. 

Instead, he turned back into his beast form and one after the other began to rip the room apart just as it would have been if he hadn't gained control of the beast. This contintined until the room was completely ruined with almost every part of it broke. Including the furniture.

Cain amazed to see the man on the bed sleep right through the noise.

It wasn't until it was almost done that Viole woke up, slowly rubbing her eyes as she wondered where she was, only to jerk back with fear, eyes fleeting around as she realized the mistake she had made. Shocked at the room that seemed to have survived a mini disaster with claw lines embedded in the shelves and the walls itself.

She was still staring around when she felt a hard muscled body beneath her which made her jerk again in shock, her eyes drawn to the naked body in the sheets right beside her.

This time around she didn't hesitate to distance herself away from him as fast as she could moving to stand by the bed instead and wait for him to get up. Having already seen his eyes pop open.

"I-I'm sorry Lord Cain. The beast-and everything that happened—I can't believe I—"

"SHUT UP!" He ordered with a fierce growl under his breathe as he lifted his upper body off the bed and sat up, lowering his legs to the ground. 

Violet didn't dare to breathe as she made sure to lower her eyes at the same time. Scared shitless as she waited for him to bring up her punishment and the work she was yet to do.

'You're such a fool! A total idiot Violet! Instead of you to run away you fell asleep! Worse you slept beside him of all people! He could kill me for simply lying on his bed,'

Violet didn't speak, waiting for him to do so first even as she slowly began to panic when after a few minutes have passed he still didn't speak.

Her palms sweaty as she felt his hard gaze on her, intense, fierce and unyielding in a way that made her lower her head even more until she finally heard him speak.

"It took you two hours to bring the medicine!" His tone blank and neutral in a way that made it impossible to discern how he was feeling.

"I-I'm sorry my Lord!" Her hand unconsciously moving the band around her neck. "It won't happen again. I-I got lost!" She responded with a stammer as she lowered her head even more. 

"Ravon gave it to you on time?"

"Yes, my lord. Lord Ravon gave it to me immediately!" Enunciating the important of how quickly she got it only to hear him hum in response. Violet had just unconsciously raised her head to see the expression on his face when she heard him speak.

"You'll sleep here from now on! If you're useful! You can keep your eyes!" Meaning every word as he realized that if it worked again and he could control his beast then 'Viole' his servant would become a hidden card he could control.

Still, what borthered him was the fact that only his mate would have such an effect on his beast which was impossible because the person in front of him was a man.

'Yes, he looks slender with soft features but a man regardless!' The thought that any woman would try to enter the mansion never once crossed his mind considering the rumors that went around and more importantly, the one rule he left in place.

'No women were allowed and the penalty was death!'

For a split second, Violet was convinced that there was no way she heard Cain's words right as she had completely mistaken his words until she heard him speak again.

"You'll sleep on the floor!" her eyes widened as she jerked her head up to look squarely at him about to speak only for a loud knock to interrupt her. Cain getting off the bed and wrapping his body with the sheets before walking towards the door to pull it open and reveal Ravon with a row of servants behind him.

"Greetings my lord! I brought the servants!" his eyes bent low until Cain gave him permission to raise his head.

"I'll be moving to the next wing then!" Cain responded walking out of the room without giving Ravon or any other person a single glance. His expression hard and filled with pain he pretended to feel even though he hadn't slept so well in years.

'It's good if he's useful and if he's not, he'll still serve as food!' Cain decided even as he headed off, each of the servants knowing better than to follow him as they knelt behind Ravon on the ground, their gazes shifting towards Viole who remained on her feet, with nothing but a ripped sleeve to show that something might have happened.
