บททั้งหมดของ The Dragon King's Chosen Bride: บทที่ 151 - บทที่ 160

She nodded, her mouth too heavy to move, her chest rising and falling as the air in the room caressed it lightly.She thrust her chest forward instinctively, wanting to feel him against her but he only pulled back and moved his hand over her back, through the opening that her opened zip had now created."And this?"Rejection burnt her and her arched back straightened up."It wasn't a part of the painting," she answered trying to summon her inner strength to get up from his thighs before her brain would become clouded with lust again and finally become mush, then she would stupidly offer herself to him only to meet his rejection. His rejection wasn't really her fear right now, she was scared of being desperate and having no shame if he turned her down."Maybe we need to do another one. Another painting where you would have to pose for me to get a better inspiration." He looked straight at her and she licked her lower lip, finding her will to stand, slipping from her.His hand moved lo

The growl was distant but it rumbled through her, rolling together with her worry and flowing freely through her veins.After Eli had left his study, Anok had come to get her a while later, and she had left with him to her room. Anok would usually stay outside her door but for the first hour of that period, he had stayed indoors with her. Eli must have so much trust in him.The growl had been quite loud then and she had pressured Anok to tell her what was going on, her heart raced with panic at what had to say, even more by the fact that he didn't know as much as she would have expected.It was very unusual for the dragon to break her chains and even go as far as knocking down a good part of the den's gate.She had heard that the chains were enchanted. She wondered if the need for a mate had been so strong that it pushed her to snap against magic. Maybe the need to find a mate for a dragon was just so strong that it couldn't be ignored, maybe it made them twice as feral as they alre

The next morning was quiet and Belladonna wished that she could rip her hair out, when she found out that she had even slept.She had not planned to do that, she had planned to wait for Eli throughout the night, watch the door with the hope that he would step in through the wooden frame that was blocking her from the rest of the hallway.She had even planned to go down to the den herself if she waited enough and he didn't come back yet. She just had to be there for her Eli. Belladonna had planned to drug Anok, and find her way to the den. She didn't know how she would do that but she was certain she would figure it out on her way. All that plan and she had fallen asleep. Asleep!It had been barely for a couple of hours but she still hated that she had slept. Now, all her plans had been halted, and being no longer sleep deprived, she could see how stupid some of them were. She was quick to step into the bathroom and refresh herself. Anok had told her that she didn't need to help

It happened all too quickly. The sound around her blended with the blankness in her heart and she told herself severally that it was impossible. She felt Anok pull her around as he grabbed a bag and took her down the hallway of the castle.They had ran, voices of people coming from the distance. Then the gongs of bells.It sounded like it was coming from a distance too and she staggered as someone ran into her.She halted in her steps and looked around at the chaos. There were people rushing around, voices of people clashing together as they called to one another in a desperate search, and her mind raced through it all to process it.Impossible. A hand held her wrist in a firm grip and quickly she was pulled out of the hallway. Her steps were too slow and with a mutter of "please forgive me for this" Anok had carried her. It was blur and it kept getting blurrier. This was impossible. They had been together and nothing had been wrong. He just couldn't be dead, just like that.

She threw the door open to the emptiness of the Bride's roomOf course, she had taken off. She had seen the pesky bodyguard when he had shown her the mask. She didn't deserve Eli. If she loved him as much as Eli claimed, then she would be here sacrificing herself for him. He deserved someone better, someone, who would stay with him through his trying times as she had done with him, and not take off at the first sight of trouble. Coward. Stupid girl. She didn't love him. No one could ever love Eli as she do--Her thoughts screeched to a halt when she saw someone make it into the empty hallway. She frowned, surprised when she realized that the person had been the little pretty thing. Lady Bell.Well, it was good that she was here. Now she could just walk up to her and request for her to give up her soul for the ritual. There was nothing a little convincing couldn't do when it came to Belladonna. Just the right twist and she would be down with the idea, taking it hook, line, a
