“I… I didn’t know.” She said. She wanted to go back and slap Hazel, especially if she did this on purpose.
He came even closer to her and she took a step back. “Now you know.” He said amused.
“Stop or…”
“Or what?” He asked still walking toward her. Klaras back hit the wall. She still held the dagger in front of her and Roshan walked closer until the tip was placed on his chest.
Klara hoped he wouldn’t come closer because she really didn’t want to hurt him but she didn’t want to show defeat either by lowering the dagger.
She looked at where the tip was placed but her gaze moved all over his chest. She felt her heart speed up, why was she staring at his body?
Then everything happened quickly. He suddenly grabbed her hand in which she held the dagger and pinned it to the wall, and her other hand he placed it on his chest. “You can touch if you want.” He said as he moved her hand over his chest and down to his abdominal.
Klara froze for a while but then she couldn’t help but enjoy the feel of his strong body under her hands.
His golden skin was so smooth, his body so strong and warm. She wanted to feel more of his body with both her hands when she realized her other hand was pinned. With a jolt, she came back to her senses and pushed him away with her free hand. “Let go of me!”
He let go of her slowly. Without wasting any time she quickly got away from him, grabbed her clothes and ran out of there fl. u. s. tered.
What in heavens was wrong with her? Touching a mans body and enjoying it, was she crazy? She went back to the mansion still fl. u. s. tered and irritated, she didn’t want a hot bath anymore she was already burning.
Walking into Hazel’s room she shut the door behind her and let out a breath.
“Is everything alright?” Hazel looked at her confused.
“No. I was just about to undress completely in front of a man.” Klara said.
“Who?”
“Nevermind. I will just take a bath here.” She said.
Klara took a quick bath and changed then joined Irene and Hazel at the garden.
At another table a bit away sat the annoying Roshan, together with Enoch and another man she couldn’t see clearly, but he had silver hair. Silver hair! Strange, she thought.
“So as soon as the sun goes down we can start with the spell and send Hazel away.” Irene explained.
Klara nodded.
“Do you want me to send you home as well?” Irene asked.
Klara nodded again. She should go back home if Hazel went safely home to Lucian. There wasn’t much she could do for them now anyway.
When the sun went down, Irene began to work on her spell. “Are you ready?” She asked Hazel.
Hazel nodded.
“I have opened a gate right there.” She said pointing at some empty place. Hazel and Klara looked confused at each other as they couldn’t see the gate Irene was talking about.
“You can’t see it so I will lead you through it.” She explained.
“Alright.”
“Be careful and hopefully we will see each other soon. Don’t forget everything I told you.” Irene said then she and Hazel hugged each other.
Hazel then turned to Klara and gave her a hug as well. Klara hugged her back. “Thank you again and I hope you reach home safely.”
“You too.” Klara smiled and she meant it. She never thought she would get along with the wife of the only man she has loved.
Irene took Hazels hand and led her forward. “Farewell.” She said before Hazel disappeared, probably as she went inside the invisible gate.
Klara was stunned for a moment but then shook her head. “How do we know she reached there safely.”
“That’s easy.” Irene went to her closet. Opening it she took out a violet box and put it on the table.
“Come here.” She ordered.
Klara went to the table and sat down. Irene opened the box a took out a green crystal ball, which she put on the table. She sat down and put her hands on the crystal ball. Closing her eyes she began to move her hands in different motions around it until it began to glow.
“Now!” She said opening her eyes then looking into the crystal ball.
Klara got curious and looked as well but she couldn’t see anything.
“I see nothing.” She said but Irene kept looking.
“Now here! There she is!” Irene said pointing.
Klara looked into the crystal ball once again and now she could finally see Hazel and she knew she had reached home safely.
Married To The Devils Son.
Chapter 56
I was relieved to find that I was back home. Finally, I could meet Lucian. I walked through the large halls as fast as I could and slowed down when I neared our quarters. There soldiers were gathered everywhere. Some of them seemed stressed, others terrified. The atmosphere felt tense and everyone seemed busy. I got a bad feeling. What was going on?
From a distance, I could see two soldiers coming out of our chamber dragging on a body. A dead body.
Right after them came two other soldiers and they were dragging on a dead body as well. My stomach twisted as I watched a pool of blood trailing behind them.
“My Lady?” I almost jumped out of my skin. Turning my head Lincoln I found a surprised Lincoln. “How did you get here?”
“Lincoln.” I breathed relieved. “Lucian? Where is Lucian?”
He frowned. “I don’t think it’s a good Idea for you to meet His Highness right now.”
“Why? What’s happening?”
“His Highness is not in a good mood.” He explained.
“I need to meet him anyways. Take me to him.” I ordered.
Lincoln seemed to hesitate but then led me to our chamber. I tried to not step on the blood that covered half the floor. Two guards stood at each side of the door.
“I think I should go in first.” Lincoln suggested.
“You don’t have to. Just let me in.”
“Are you sure you want to go in?” Lincoln asked. Now he was scaring me.
“Yes.”
“If anything… if you need anything just shout for help.”
I nodded wondering what he meant. He gestured for the guards to open the door and I walked inside.
Good lord, our chamber looked like a slaughterhouse. Not that I had seen one but I have heard of it.
There was blood everywhere. The carpet, the sheets, the curtains even the table clothes were covered with blood. Two guards were rolling the carpet and carrying it out. This wasn’t how I imagined our chamber to look like when I came back.
I walked further into the room avoiding to step on any blood again but Lucian was nowhere to be seen.
My gaze fell on the glass door that led to our personal garden. I stepped out and into our garden. Oh, how I missed it. At least this place wasn’t covered with blood.
