Chapter 324 You Are Mine.
Chapter 324 You Are Mine.
============================
“Are you thinking of hiding there to save yourself from me? Huh?” Hazel’s eyes snapped open at the voice, a hint of hatred and irritation was there since the last scene was of Rafael pressing the ring again just to test it when that f**the seller had already shown him.
“Just how much Bella was tortured by them?”
“And here I thought that you are hungry so I asked the maids to bring your favorite food.” he added when she looked at her skin that was already getting crumpled due to staying long in water.
“It was a torture to remember the past!” She muttered as she came out of the water and pulled a bathrobe from the corner of the room.
Wearing it, she opened the door when she met his hungry eyes that devoured her from head to toe.
She rolled her eyes and continued to walk to the table near the sofa that was full of delicacies.
He followed her and sat beside her while looking at her intensely. She looked.. Different!
“Are you angry over something?” he asked when her hands paused for a second before she picked up the glass of water.
Everything she knew about her past was from his mouth. Should she tell him that she could watch it as her dreams now.
“No! I am just too exhausted. You are a beast.” she muttered with a twisted mouth when he chuckled and held and walked behind her.
His expert hands started to massage her back and her shoulders earning a moan from her.
“Let me help you in feeling better, or i would be in guilt.” he muttered softly as he roamed a hand on the back of her neck and pressed a few nerves making her feel better instantly.
“Since you are here! You are mine. What made you think that I would let you go just because you love anyone else? Huh?
You are mine and you will always be mine.” she shuddered when the voice rang in her ears and her eyes snapped open with a start.
“What happened?” he asked with a look of confusion when she fell into cold sweats again.
He stared at her and then at his hands. He was sure he was gentle enough to not gain this kind of reaction.
She panted for air, as if she had dived into deep and cold water.
“Knock! Knock!” the maid knocked the door and then entered in,
“My lady, the carriage is ready as you have instructed!” Rafael’s brows furrowed as he had thought the food had come but..
“Are you going somewhere?” he asked with a look of confusion that was mixed with annoyance.
“Huh, oh! Yes. I am. Do you remember the girl who had approached me in the last gathering?” when he nodded, she continued,
“she had invited me for an evening tea party. She told me she wanted me to introduce with another girl and share their views on the new ruler.“ She skipped the part of rebellion and a visit to the town conveniently when she felt he looked displeased.
“I thought it would be a good chance to mingle among them and spy on them.
I am sure a few of them must have a link with Beryllium or the group who is planning the attack!” she added when he finally ran a hand in his hair and slumped on the chair.
His face scrunched up so much as if he had eaten something bitter.
“But you do not need to put yourself in danger and I did not want you to go after what happened last night.” she chuckled as he threw a tantrum like a kid and shook her head.
“I am fine. And you know this is important. It could be a good opportunity if they could trust me.” she stood up and walked towards her closet,
“And do not send any of your men to keep an eye on me.” she opened the closet as she ran a hand on her dresses indifferently, “i am sure they would have planned to test me. If the truth would come out, I would never be able to gain information from them.”
She picked up a red dress with a lot of flares and work of pearls on the corner and gold embroidery.
“I will be there in half an hour.” she looked at the maid who was still waiting for her reply, “and send someone to help me dressing up.” The maid bowed her head and left the room.
Rafael stood up and walked to her. His hands were waiting on her shoulders. Slightly pulling her back to his chest so that she could lean on him.
“I know you are strong enough to not need any help when it comes to humans.” he kissed her nape and gently massaged it, “so, if you want to go alone I will trust your decision and respect it.”
His hands perfectly let go of the knot of her bathrobe and took it off from her slender body.
“But I would still have men in the standby around the palace.” he tugged her back so that she turned and her chest was in front of him now.
“If anything happened to you this time, I would burn the whole empire and dig their graves in their own palace. You are mine and now that i have found you, i will never let you go.” With that he took her lips into his mouth and kissed her urgently with full force as if he was trying to suck her soul and mix it with his own soul when she shivered but pulled his hair and kissed him back.
“To be sure, I want you to have a soul bond between us.” he said as he finally let go of her lips when she was gasping for air. It took her a few seconds to sink his words in her mind when her brows furrowed,
“Why did we not have a soul bond from her past life?”
