Witch's Daughter And The Devil's Son

Chapter 547 Brave Seren

"Dray...?" she called, her voice a bit shaky and panicked this time.

There was no way her sweet husband would not reply to her even after she called him twice.

'Is it him? Erebus? When did he show up? Had it not been Dray till now?'

With that thought, she felt her heart skipping a bit, and though she didn't want to admit it, she suddenly felt scared. She had decided to face the dark side of her husband, but she could not help but feel anxious. The absolute darkness inside the chamber added to her fears, and the fact that she could see nothing clearly made her want to stop.

She asked with a slightly trembling voice, wanting to pull away and sit up, "Dray... is it you?"

But before she could completely pull her legs back, she felt the tight hold on her ankles and she was forced to remain on her back with her legs parted. She tried but could not get away.

Now, Seren was sure that it was not Drayce but Erebus.

Even before she could say anything, she was pressed under the naked body of her husband. Though the body was the same, the actions felt like they were of a stranger as Drayce never treated her roughly like this. He would always coax her with his words and make sure that she was comfortable, but nothing like that was happening with the man hovering over her body.

She pressed her hands against his chest to push him away, her panic rising, not knowing what else to do. But the man didn't even respond to her.

"Dray?" she called once again, yet rather than saying anything, his response came through action. Both of her hands were held by his and pinned above her head.

She could feel how hot his body was and could even feel the hardness against her most private part-- as if it wanted to get inside her, just like their wedding night.

'Dray would never do it without getting my consent. This has to be his dark side. Did he show up because we were talking about him?'

Seren was now sure, but by that time, she felt him move his face to her neck. His breath was hot against her tender skin, and as she felt his warm mouth touch that sensitive part, she could feel his teeth grazing against her skin, as if he was ready to bite her while claiming her at the same time.

Since calling him 'Dray' received no response, she decided to say out loud the name given to his dark side.

"Erebus?"

His body froze in shock.

A chill ran through her body upon receiving this reaction from him. Seren had her guess confirmed, and thus, she knew she had to stick to her earlier words.

'He is still Dray, the other side of my Dray, and I don't need to be scared of my husband.'

She took a deep shaky breath, trying her best to be brave and suppress her fear.

She felt him move back and it felt as if he was looking at her. Before she knew it, she freed her hands from his hold and moved to cover the lower part of her face.

His pair of red eyes shone in the darkness, but they looked more like crimson jewels rather than a person's eyes. It looked like those eyes were simply observing her without emotions.

'How curious...'

They were the same set of beautiful red eyes, the same shape and the same shade of red, but unlike the gaze of her Dray that was full of love and affection for her, this one held an aloof and bone-chilling feel to it.

'Like I'm looking at the eyes of someone not human.'

After some hesitation, Seren moved one of her hands towards his face. She stared into those shining red eyes without breaking their gaze. Swallowing her anxiety, she touched his cheek with her fingers.

"Erebus, it's you."

The next moment, the shine in those eyes disappeared which caused her heart to skip a beat.

"Erebus?" she called anxiously in that darkness.

"Seren," Drayce called out to her.

"Dray, is it you now?" she asked, somewhat confused to hear him respond in such a gentle tone.

He placed his hand over her hand that was cupping his face and lightly planted a kiss on her palm. "It's me."

"I..I thought Erebus took over your body. Was I wrong?" she asked.

"You are not wrong. He showed up," Drayce said in the same gentle voice.

"Then why...I mean, I called him earlier but he didn't respond...." She didn't know what to think about such a strange encounter.

Drayce chuckled. "Seems like you scared him."

"Huh? But I did nothing? We did not even get the chance to talk," Seren countered.

"Are you sure it's not because my wife is scary?" he teased. He caressed her cheeks gently. "He probably didn't expect you to call his name. My Queen is so brave..."

"I am always brave," she said confidently.

"Really? Let's test that then," Drayce smirked and pulled her into a passionate kiss.

'There is no need for me to worry anymore.' Drayce was glad that Erebus didn't harm her and Seren was able to handle his other side without a problem. Now, he's convinced that he didn't have to hold back from being intimate with his wife, worrying over his other side showing up and harming her.

"Dray..." She was taken aback by this sudden passionate attack from him. "Wait--"

"I can't," Drayce replied and continued to ravish his wife.

Though they could not consummate the marriage yet, both knew how to please each other and satisfy their needs.

Those soft mounds, he could not help but squeeze them, and he listened to her alluring response in return to him capturing one sweet bud at a time, sucking and nibbling and tasting them to his heart's content.

"Dray...aah..."

He loved to hear her sultry moans that were encouraging him to do more.
