3.5% Married to the Devil's Son / Chapter 11: Chapter 11

Chapter 11: Chapter 11

I sat on the bed waiting for Lucian to come after eating dinner without him yet another night. There were a lot of things we needed to talk about but I didn't want to fight with him again.

Because that's what you think about me. You think I am a beast who beats and kills people then you would think that I can burn them as well right?

His voice echoed in my head. I never thought of him as a beast I just thought that he was different. He looked hurt before walking out of the dining room as if he didn't want to see me again and I wondered if he really wouldn't come. Would I have to sleep alone again? I didn't even get the chance to thank him for bringing Lydia and Ylva.

I decided not to sleep alone and go look for him. I looked everywhere but couldn't find him. Where could he be?

"Do you know where I can find his highness?" I asked a guard.

"He is in the barn, Your highness."

I made my way to the barn where I found Lucian feeding his horse. It was dark inside and the only light came from the full moon. As if sensing my presence he looked around until his eyes landed on me.

"I was looking for you," I said walking closer to him.

"Why?" he asked clapping his horse.

"It's just that we have been fighting a lot lately and we never spend time together...I never see you these days and I just...I just.."

"You just what?" he said taking a step closer.

"I just want to spend time with you"

"Why?"

"What do you mean by why?" I said frustrated at his questions.

Grabbing my arm he pulled me closer. "Why means why? why do you want to spend time with me? do you like me? do you miss me? do you want me? you're not scared anymore? that I might kill you, beat you, or burn you?" I could hear the hurt in his voice.

"Yes, you scare me sometimes but you treat me well too."

He didn't seem satisfied with my answer but his eyes softened and he let go of my arm " It's late you should go to sleep, I will stay here for a while" he finally said.

"I will stay with you" I insisted.

He opened his mouth to protest but said nothing turning his attention to his horse. I sat down on a haystack nearby where I could still see him and talk to him.

"Thank you for bringing my maids," I said but got no response. I tried to come up with something to talk about while my eyes studied him in the darkness. He looked different as if he belonged to the darkness or was part of it.

"Do you want to go for a ride?" he suddenly asked.

"Yes," I said excited but we were wearing our royal clothes. As if reading my thoughts "there is knitwear right there" he said pointing to the corner of the barn. I saw nothing because it was too dark but walking closer I saw them. How could he see them from far away? Or maybe he already knew they were there.

I turned around to ask where I would change but walked almost into his chest.

"You scared me."

"I am sorry. I just thought you would need help getting out of your dress" he explained.

"You don't expect me to change here?"

"Why not? No one is here and it's dark" he smirked. It was true. I couldn't see him clearly.

"I can manage myself"

"Alright, just call for me if you need help," he said and left.

I looked around to see that he wasn't nearby and began to undress, but yes it was really hard to untangle the ropes on the back of my dress and my arms began to hurt.

"Are you sure you don't need help?" Lucian's voice came from behind as he walked closer. "Let me help you" he said and started to untie the back of my dress without waiting for a reply. Now and then his hand would touch my bare skin while untying " I will wait for you outside" he said when he was done.

The clothes were a bit too big for me but it didn't bother me. Lucian was waiting outside with his horse when I came out of the barn.

"Is there any particular place you want to go?" he asked.

"Anywhere is fine," I said.

He helped me up on the horse and we rode off in the night. I have never felt so free before. We went to the market and walked among common people and I was so fascinated by the whole thing because I had never been to a market before and never walked among common people. Then we rode into the woods.

"What are we doing here?" I asked.

"I want to show you something," he said and after a while, we came to a place in the woods where many small yellow lights were flying over the whole place.

"What is this?" I asked while Lucian helped me down.

"It's fireflies. Do you know why they glow?"

"No"

"It's to attract mates or prey." He explained.

I looked at then fascinated. I never knew these things existed.

"They are beautiful," I said.

"Not as much as you are," he said walking right behind me.

I stopped and turned around. Our eyes met and like every time I look into his eyes I felt a force pulling me toward him, making me forget everything else. I wondered if he knew what kind of effect his eyes had on me.

"Your eyes are burning" I whispered when I could finally speak.

He grabbed the back of my head, pulling my face close to his. I could feel his warm breath on my face and butterflies in my stomach.

"Not only are my eyes burning, my whole body is burning with need Hazel," he says as his gaze travels down to my lips.

I open my mouth to fill my lungs with air and my ears get flooded by the pounding sound of my heart. He slowly leans in and presses his lips on mine. The touch is soft and gentle but as soon as our lips touch he pushes me away and takes two long steps back.


Chapter 12: Chapter 12

What just happened? Only a taste of her lips and he could feel his demon wanting to come out. He only felt like that when he was really angry, then his demon would come out to punish whoever enraged him. As time went he had learned to control his anger and keep the demon in check. It has been a long time since his demon wanted to come out so why now?

Take her! She is yours. She belongs to you. The voice inside his head commanded.

"Is something wrong?" Hazel asked confused as she walked closer to him.

"Don't come close!" he almost yelled wrapping his arms around his body. He could see hurt in her eyes but he didn't want to hurt her like the time he set his brother on fire. Every time his demon wanted out he did bad things.

Hazel turned around and started to walk away. She was probably angry which he could understand but how could he explain when he himself could not understand. He couldn't even go after her, he needed to calm down his demon first.

******************

Tears filled my eyes as I walked away. It was my first kiss and he was acting as if it was disgusting. If he didn't like it he could at least hide it. He didn't have to be so rude. I didn't know where I was going but I didn't care. As I walked further into the woods it became darker and darker, feeling scared I turned around to walk back but couldn't find the way. God, I was lost and it was dark. I yelled Lucian's name several times but got no answer.

Always being a sheltered child and never being alone I was petrified and started to panic. Running around in the woods I tried to find my way back without any success. Tired I sat next to a tree. Where was Lucian now when I needed him?

"Hazel!" I turned my head to the side. Lucian was walking toward me "I was looking for you."

"Really? I thought you would be happy if I got lost and you wouldn't have to see me again" I snapped resentfully.

As if he didn't hear me "let's go home" he said.

Standing up "What if I don't want to?" I know I was being childish but I was angry and just wanted an apology or an explanation.

He shot me a hard glare "You better listen to me or you won't like what I will do to you," he muttered under his breath. He was trembling as he spoke. Was he that angry?

"Fine, you better explain to me once we are home."

When we arrived at our chamber I crossed my arms over my chest. "So explain!" I demanded. 

"Explain what?"

"Why you are behaving rudely and threatening me by saying that I won't like what you will do to me. What will you do?" I asked in a challenging tone.

Surely he wouldn't beat me, kill me or burn. So what would he do? starve me? Lock me in somewhere?

He looked at me and I saw a glint in his eyes.

"Maybe you will like what I will do to you," he said crossing the distance between us and backing me against the wall.

A devilish smile appeared on his face as he placed his hands above my head on the wall and caged me against it with his much larger body. His spicy scent was like a drug coming off him stronger than before, intoxicating me.

"I want to kiss you, to part your lips with my tongue and slide inside your mouth. I want to pin your naked body underneath mine and feel you tremble while I do all kinds of wicked things a man can possibly do to a woman. I want to hear soft moans of pleasure escape your beautiful lips" he said tracing his thumb over my lips. My breath caught in my throat as he leaned down and brushed his lips against my ear "I want to feel heat radiate from your body."

Lord, I was already aroused by his words and I couldn't breathe. I needed to get away but I felt weak in the knees so I put my hands on his chest to push him away which made him chuckle.

"Why are you doing the opposite of what your body wants?" he asked. I don't know myself I just want to breathe. Maybe I am scared even though I am excited, Maybe I am not ready even though my legs are trembling.

"Fine," he exhales as he lets me push him away "soon you will let me do all these things to you and more." He was behaving differently. Never has he approached me like this before,so straightforward. He was always slow and careful giving me time to think and breathe.

"I'll sleep in my room tonight otherwise I can't promise to behave myself," he said as he walked to his room. "Goodnight wife" and with that, he closed the door leaving me alone.

I lay down on the bed trying to sleep but couldn't. He said he was burning with need so why did he push me away? Then he acted cold, then he told me he wanted to kiss me and do wicked things to me. I was really confused. After a while, I fell asleep.

"My lady, my lady wake up" I heard Ylvas voice.

"Let me sleep," I muttered in a sleepy voice.

"My lady please I need to prepare you and you have slept too long. You are not a child anymore you are a married woman."

"Did she wake up?" what seemed like Lydia's voice asked.

"No. I have been trying to wake her for a while."

I heard the door open and then it became quiet.

Finally!!!

"Leave us. I will wake her up" a deep voice spoke. After a few seconds, a spicy scent invaded my senses and I felt fingers remove the hair from my face placing it behind my ear.

"Hazel..."

"I want to sleep some more" I cut him off.

"You couldn't sleep last night," he seemed to be speaking to himself. "I didn't mean to scare you."

You didn't scare me. You made me want you then you hurt me then you made me angry and then aroused. God! I never felt so many emotions in one night before.

"But I meant everything I said" he continued "I do want you and you will eventually admit you want me too"
