Chapter 46 [Bonus chapter]

“It looks like i have to kill two other maids tonight!” her eyes widened as she looked at the night creature who killed people more than he took breaths!

“Why are you killing the maid this time?” the words left her mouth before she could stop herself with a deep frown on her face.

Noticing his gaze on her, she realized she had shown him emotions that could prove her weak.

“I mean, not that I care, but I still want to know why you want to kill the maids who had given me the bath!” She still remembered the pale face of the maid who was sure that she was going to get killed soon!

She could not remember her breaking any kind of memorandum then why? Could it be that he would kill everyone that was around her

“That’s because I did not like that she got the chance to touch you while I did not!” her mouth formed a big “O” when she saw him shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly that even A big egg could fit her mouth perfectly.

“…..” would he just be going to kill everyone like that. Her eyes moved to his hands as she could see blood in them.

She could not even fathom how many people he had killed that way. And she could not help but feel regret that it was partly because of her.

“Come here!” she instinctively crawled a few steps away on the sofa when she heard him calling her and his eyes narrowed on her face!

“Did you have a hearing problem, huh?” This time his voice had already turned so cold that she gulped her own saliva.

Though her face was still nonchalant, her heart was rummaging hard in her ribcage as she crawled closer to him on the sofa.

“Tsk! You are too slow!” he muttered as he pulled her closer and this time her legs ended up on his lap from where she had run away just a few minutes ago.

“Close your eyes!”

“…..” ‘not in this life!’ her eyes widened as she stared hard at him only then did she notice that he had a small red bottle in his hands.

Could it be blood! She immediately discarded the idea looking at its size. It was too small for that!

Then what could it be? It could be nothing good if it was coming from this man! Could it be a poison?

Had he decided to kill her through feeding him!? As if on clue, the door was knocked and a maid came in with a trolley of food and stopped closer to them.

She could see that she was a new one whom she had never seen before. The smell of blueberry cake filled her nostrils and her eyes turned away from the face of the maid towards the trolley that was only filled with cakes and most of them were blueberry ones.

Could it be.. Her eyes narrowed at the man who was looking at her with expectations and her eyes turned cold!

As if cold air was blowing on her neck, she felt a chill run down her spine. Not in this life she was going to give up on her chance to live! Even if life was full of struggles, she just did not want to accept death!

“I have eaten more than food, my lord. I do not think I am hungry anymore!” maintaining her composure, she replied in a soft voice.

“Tsk! Did I say that they were for you?”

“…” eh! Her face turned red with embarrassment as she pursued her lips and puffed up her cheeks. Though he had not said the food for her, she was sure that the food was not up to his liking! It was all sugary and creamy.

She could not imagine him eating that even when he showed a warm and gentle personality.

With her puffed up cheeks, her pouting lips were looking more kissable. She was looking so adorable that he wanted to pinch them and so did he!

“Do not frown! Of course, the food is for you!”

With the fear of getting poisoned, she forgot that she was sitting still in his laps and the strong senses of the night creature helped him in hearing her thumping heart beats and the fear that was crawling in her heart. She stared hard at the man who was pinching his cheeks as if she was a doll!

She wanted to smack his hands away but at the same time she did not want to anger the crazy man who had mood swings like a lady suffering from menopause.

“You can have them later if you want. I saw that you liked them, so I ordered a few for you. Since I still did not know much about the hunger pangs of humans!”

Her eyes were still staring at the food as if her eyes had a scanner and she could check if the food was poisoned or not when she trembled in his arms and a shiver ran down her spine.

“What.. what are you doing?” her eyes snapped back to his hands and the red bottle that was opened now.

His fingers were moving on the red blisters in a circular motion yet the touch was so gentle as if the softest feather was touching her body.

It was so warm that she could not explain. Her paining feel instantly felt relief!

Yet she still could not imagine that the hands that killed humans here and there relentlessly were applying ointment on her blisters. When he should be appalled by them.

Nobles love beauty so much that they feel disgusted just by a little wound or ugly things.. Yet! The man did not even make a nauseating face but even applied the medicine by himself.

At the moment it felt like he was as warm as gentle as his face and their marriage was not hanging on the death rope.

“Is it so painful that you are crying?”
