A show of trust.
Juzarh
LeiyaAfter the book incident, I had been weary of Lyle. I knew he was hiding something but I wasn't sure what. Whatever he was hiding, he was hiding it pretty well. He was clueless as to how I felt about him. Just as he was doing a perfect job keeping his secret, I was doing a perfect job at pretending.“Leiya,” he called my attention away from the fantasy novel I was engrossed in.“Yes Lyle?” I looked up, watching him walk towards where I sat.“Do you know how to swim?”His out of the blue question amused me. I closed the book to pay full attention to him.“No I don't.”“Great,” he gleefully threw his hands in the air.”Another thing I need to teach you.” he sounded more excited than I was. It made me giggle a little bit.“I think I would rather finish up this book.”I mumbled, picking up the book with its pages opened. I was still trying to find where I was when the book suddenly flew out of my hand.“Leiya, I've beenRelated chapters
Sold to the Prince of Hell Giving reasons.
JuzarhLeiya I wanted to pull my hand about his way throughout the entire journey to the small spring, but he was holding me tightly. Not the firm yet soft way he used to, a more aggressive way. He was unconsciously projecting his anger onto me. We finally got to the water and he let me go. At so many points along the way, I wanted to speak on how tightly his grip was but for some reason, I was scared. He was obviously angry about something and I didn't know how he was when he was angry. I also didn't want to find out. “Isn't it beautiful?”He was talking about the water. I walked a little away from him to also observe the beauty. It truly was beautiful. It looked so clean, crystal clear, but it was still strangely flowing backwards. “It is beautiful.” I whispered, more to myself than to him.“Not as beautiful as you.”I looked up to meet his gaze, a small smile on his lips. I wanted to be flattered, I wanted to blush inwardly and project a little

JuzarhLeiyaI quietly made my way back to the small house. My injured wrist held to my chest by the other hand, while I forced my crying to a stop. I could hear him walking behind me. He had tried calling as he followed, but after a number of tries to which I did not respond, he fell silent and just walked behind me. The subtle fear I had for Lyle wasn't subtle anymore. I was very afraid of being alone with him. I was afraid of being near him. How was I going to spend the rest of my life in this place with him? I needed to find a way out of this place. The second I turned my back to him, I knew I needed to leave. If there was no way out, I would rather take my own life. Either way, living the rest of my life with him was a nightmare I didn't want to live in. I walked into the small cottage, he followed behind me. I walked to the kitchen corner for a small bowl of water. I made my way outside, pouring the cold water over my inflated wrist. I quietly winced in pain.
Sold to the Prince of Hell Expressed feelings.
JuzarhLeiyaI haven't been able to sleep properly in the past few days. Being alone with Lyle, in the same house, in an unknown town with no other residents was very distressing. I couldn't look him in the eye, my heart raced every time he was close to me, I always forced a kaigh at his jokes. Nothing was the same. The pain in my wrist had also cleared up. The mark, however, still remained. A red band around my wrist to remind me of how monstrous he could get. I also couldn't believe he didn't notice anything different about me, I wondered if he was just clueless or I was very good at pretending. Either way, he had been very much the same way as he was in the beginning. “What should we do today Leiya?”His voice distracted me from the book I was reading. Reading was all I did. I let my imagination run free. I imagined being out of here, in the real world with other people. I imagined being back at Kaltain, in the warm embrace of Helion. I imagine sitting and t
Sold to the Prince of Hell Going away.
Juzarh Leiya My life had officially become a living hell. Stuck with a man who has a behavior problem and a worrisome attitude for the rest of my life with no way of escape. I couldn't take it anymore. I couldn't do it. I couldn't pretend anymore. His smile that used to excite me was now sickening and repulsive. His voice that used to excite me was now horrifying.“Leiya,”He called from the other room. Anytime he called, my heart stopped for a moment. When he was around me, the air in the room wasn't enough.“You should cook for me today.” He said as he walked into the living area. I looked up from the book I was reading. It was hard to tell if he was being serious or not. “I don't know how to.”He knew this. I watched him walk towards the table, waiting for what condescending thing he was going to say next. “It's a woman's job to cook for her husband.”I wasn't sure what part of his statement disgusted me the most, but I was to choose,
Sold to the Prince of Hell Leiya's revenge.
Juzarh LeiyaMy eyes slowly opened. I was laid on my back in a familiar looking room. I scanned the room where I was. Soon enough I realized I was back at the small house, and I was in Lyle's bed. I lifted my arm to confirm if I had actually slit it, or I had been dreaming. There was a faint cut which meant I wasn't dreaming. I felt myself coming to tears. I had no control over anything happening. I couldn't even successfully take my own life. I dreaded walking out to meet him, I dreaded what he would do to me. I wanted to just lie on the bed until I died. As my thoughts forced tears down my face, I heard loud bickering. He was at it again, talking with the invisible person as last time.I forced myself out of bed. Whatever he was going to do to me, I was ready for it. If he was going to kill me, I would very much appreciate it. The moment I stood on my feet, I struggled to stay up. I felt so weak, my head pounded and my vision was also blurry. I had lost a lot of
Sold to the Prince of Hell A whole new experience.
RastokNaylaXerian went back with Zen and Venah after she had applied the healing paste on my ankle. I was feeling a lot better and offered to go along with them. I wanted to make sure Venah was comfortable at Zen's as well as see the blush on her face when we left the two of them for the night. However Xerian refused.They all backed him up, refusing I walk, and insisting I rest. Outnumbered and with no choice, I reluctantly agreed. I resorted to hugging Venah, bidding Zen goodnight, then they left. I walked around the room for a few moments. Limping subtly with little to no pains. In a few days, I will be able to walk just fine. When I was satisfied with the exercise for my ankle, I took off my undergarments and sat in bed. I wanted to stay up until Xerian returned, but my tired body was winning the war with my heart. I occupied myself with thoughts of Venah and Zen. They looked like they were going to get along just fine. Maybe he would take her mind away from X
Sold to the Prince of Hell Back to the way it was.
JuzarhLeiya“You will regret this.” Lyle hissed. His eyes that once looked at me softly looked at me with hate. The same hate I had for him. “She will not regret anything because you will not touch her, Lyle.”Helion's delivery of a stern warning gave me more courage. I wanted to hit Lyle again. “I'm not scared of you.” Lyle expressed with disgust. I heard a scornful laugh from behind me and suddenly Lyle got to his feet. “Go on Lyle,” I heard Helion's deep tone. "You're free now. Touch her.”Free as he was, I didn't feel a hint of fear as I looked into his eyes. I knew he wouldn't dare to touch me, he was scared of his brother and he was too much of a coward to admit it. We stared at each other for a few more minutes. The silence in the room was deafening. The anger, rage and hate emitting from the both of us could be felt in the air. “Just what I thought,” Helion's scornful voice broke the silence.“Now sit.” He growled. Lyle
Sold to the Prince of Hell A sigh of relief.
Kaltain LeiyaThe familiar arrangement of my room at Kaltain brought tears to my eyes. The moment Helion told me to consider my wishes done, we vanished. Everything was just like I left it, as if I never left. Helion instructed the maids to bathe me properly, bring me clean clothes and feed me whatever I asked for. He whispered to me he would be there for a while, but I was just happy to be back home. The moment he left, the maids got to work. I requested that I eat before taking a bath. I was still very weak from losing so much blood. I was taken to the dinner table. I didn't wait long before I was served dishes of all sorts. My mouth started to water as I watched them place the plates before me. I wasn't able to wait for them to leave before I dug in. I started slurping down the soup like my life depended on it. Taking pieces of bread and pieces of meat at the same time. In a short time, half of the plates on the table were empty. I took a moment to breathe
