Lord Benjamin felt his head throbbed and he's really worried for her safety. Lady Anastasia was in an especially good mood upon getting back to the party. Her smile was wider, she was friendlier towards the other girls and she was chatting nonstop. When Lord Benjamin found her, he marched up to her and said in a stern voice, "Follow me this instant." Lady Anastasia furrowed her brows but when she saw Sir Andrew standing close by, she roughly figured why her brother appeared furious.She smiled and asked sweetly, "What's wrong Brother?"

Melissa's head felt like something hard had banged against it. She winced in pain when she moved her body. Melissa slowly opened her eyes and saw an unfamiliar room. She quickly looked down and was relieved to see that she's still fully dressed.Instead of being panic, Melissa sighed heavily and the first thought that came to mind was, 'When will this end??'It's really too tiring living in the novel world, there's always something 'silly' that would happen in the next minute, even if she tried to avoid it. She actually wondered, if she refused to follow Lady Anastasia, would the circumstance changed? Or she still would not be able to avoid it?Melissa looked around and realized that the room was luxuriously designed. The walls were painted in rich brown, and the floor was laden with beautiful carpets. The wardrobe and dresser seemed to be on par with what she owned so they must be pretty expensive too.Melissa's eyes caught sight of the windows and there were curtains blocking the vi

In the washroom, Melissa's red face earlier was replaced with a very, very pale one.Marry me? Wow, he's not only delusional..he's an overly confident nut job! How could he even think of such an absurd idea?? Did he really think no one would come to find me, or stop him? Talk about confidence. He's the epitome to that. Melissa splashed her face with cold water and looked at her reflection in the mirror. She looked tired and her eyes were unusually listless. At this fragile moment, her mind drifted to the Duke and she immediately teared up.She really missed Duke Kensington and why, why must he be gone at this moment when she really needed him. If only he was around, Melissa was sure Mr King would not succeed in taking her away like this. He would not allow Lady Anastasia to trick her, and would keep her safe at all time.At the thought of this, Melissa cried even more and soon her sobs turned into a loud wail. Mr King, who was waiting for her, heard her crying and he rushed to the b

Duke Malcom stared at his daughter and was shocked to see the bruise on her neck. The bluish purple colour on her white skin was indeed shocking to see. Anger rose in him and he turned to Mrs Shaw and Lily who were standing not far from him. "The doctor will be here any minute. I'm going to speak with Lord Benjamin. Please make sure she's not injured anywhere else." Mrs Shaw and Lily nodded in understanding and bowed to their Master as he left the room. Lily wanted to cry but a stern look from Mrs Shaw stopped her and she quickly wiped her tears and went to carry out her task. When he reached his study, Duke Malcom saw Sir Andrew standing by the door, looking sullen. Duke Malcom had half a mind to punch this useless bodyguard of his but he controlled his anger."Your Grace.." Sir Andrew started but Duke Malcom stopped him before he could continue."Let's talk inside."Sir Andrew obediently followed the Duke in.By the end of the detailed explanation from Lord Benjamin, Duke Malcom'

When Lord Benjamin returned to his manor, the party had long ended. The house was quite, and few servants could be seen scurried around to clean the remaining mess left by the guests. They bowed in respect when they saw their Young Lord.“Where’s your Mistress?” He asked a young maid nearby.“My Lord, the Young Lady is in her room.” She politely answered.“Call her to my study now.” Without waiting for the maid to reply, Lord Benjamin walked to his study, all the while trying to calm himself down.When he went in, Walters was already seated waiting for him. When Walters saw his Master, he immediately stood up and went to his side.“Is it done?” Lord Benjamin asked while fixing a glass of drink.“Yes, My Lord. It was reported as an accidental fire.” Walters replied.“The bodies?”“They have been sent to the city morgue.” Walters said.“Any sign of him?” Lord Benjamin asked further.“The bodies were charred beyond recognition, My Lord. At this point, we couldn’t know for sure. He might

However, it was also reported that the fire was accidental and there was no element of crime related to the incident.The Queen didn’t dwell on the subject and dismissed it as soon as she was informed of it. Although Mr King’s body had yet to be identified, alongside his men, he was after all, a foreign man who had only recently come to the capital and there was not much information about this victim. Therefore, in the Queen’s eyes, he was an insignificant person to her.When Duke Malcom seek audience with her this morning, the Queen didn’t think too much about it and welcomed him warmly. However, looking at his worried look, she knew something bad must’ve happened.“Your Majesty, pardon my intrusion this morning. I have something to report to you urgently.”“What is it?” She quickly asked.“Melissa was ki

"Ms Hall, now that you've inherited the Graden Arts Hall, do you plan to expand it?""Ms Hall, when will your next exhibition be?" "Can you comment on the rumours that you've secretly gotten married?"A throng of reporters swarmed around Melissa, asking her a barrage of questions which she couldn't keep up. She smiled politely and held up her hand to the reporters before answering them calmly."Do you believe me if I say that I painted these art pieces based on the dreams I have had over the years?"

Her eyes scanned the room and she saw mechanical instruments by the bed, and an IV drip attached to her hand. Wait a minute, is this the hospital?Before she could process her thoughts, the door to the room opened and a young lady dressed like a nurse walked in. The nurse went straight to the IV drip and checked it before proceeding to adjust something on the machine next to the bed. She seemed oblivious to the fact that Melissa was staring at her intently. The nurse turned to check the patient next and the moment she saw Melissa's bright eyes looking at her, she screamed in shock."You're awake!!! Oh my God!! Wait, I need to call the doctor!!" She said excitedly. Melissa had a guess on w

The Cold Duke and the Modern Maiden Chapter 108 - Make Love to Me
The next morning, the sun had risen in the sky when Melissa woke up. A warm hand was placed on her back, making her movements restricted. The warm hand suddenly moved and pulled her into a hug. Melissa looked at the handsome guy in front of her and sighed.She traced her finger on his forehead, his nose and finally his lips. Duke Kensington kissed her finger, his eyes still closed. Melissa giggled and pulled her hand back. In a swift movement, Duke Kensington got up and pinned her under his body, making her giggled more. "Running away? Not a chance!" The Duke kissed her, while she stroke his back. Melissa could feel her husband's cock hardened and pressed against her legs. She instinctively spread her legs apart, inviting him in.He groaned and placed his hard cock against her vagina, before he slowly moved it up and down her wet slit.

"Don't worry, I'll be gentle with you." The Duke whispered in Melissa's ear, comforting her.Melissa nodded slightly and she ran her fingers through the Duke's hair, while enjoying his touch and kisses. The Duke seemed to be under the impression that she's young and naive in this area, and had taken the lead in their first night together. Melissa had allowed the man to do whatever he wanted, especially when she was inexperienced herself. However, she had read and watched enough movies in her previous life to know what to expect and therefore she braced herself for her first time. The Duke's kisses travelled down from her breasts to her stomach, and eventually his lips ended up kissing her most intimate area. He parted her legs slightly, giving him more access to her body and started sucking her cunt. His movements were slow at first but they gradually became faster and her moans became louder with each action he took. "Aaahhh! Zachary!" Hearing his name coming out of her sweet l
