Mated to the Mad Lord-Chapter 161: Cruel Cain
Chapter 161: Cruel Cain
"Wha-what!" Violet snapped her voice loud no longer caring whether it was loud enough to be heard outside the door.
"I-I killed him! You—" Violet said about to explain only to freeze as she realized that there was no way Cain didn’t know what he did especially with his clothes which had been visibly stained with blood as he stood in front of her looking at her.
"Isn’t it funny how you seem to care about someone who almost killed you than me?" Cain asked lowering his voice as he tried to keep a lid on his surging anger unable to comprehend why it was even something they had to argue about when all he wanted to do was kiss her.
He could have down so the night before but recalling the new book he had picked up, ’How to fare about a partner in a way that makes them want you!’ he had decided to hold back. He had stamped down his urges and instead waited patiently for her to come to him.
Killing the guard and doing exactly what he did to her was supposed to achieve that yet all he could see was Violet who’s eyes were red filled with both tears anger and something else as she looked at him.
Yes! Disgust... the one look he hated the most.
"You-you’re a killer!" she stuttered out even as she spoke her voice loud enough for Cain to hear it. She had convinced herself that she would maintain a calm facade until it was time for her to escape and not to anything that would draw attention to herself but at that point she didn’t care raising her voice as she screamed at him.
"A FUCKING MURDERER!"
"You have no fucking conscience left in your soul! You see humans or anything that moves as things to toy with!" she continued to scream with tears running down her eyes, " What makes you think that you deserve to live!"
"You even killed your freaking servants! All of them! Who fucking does that!" her body trembling the more she spoke in a flurry outburst.
’What the hell is stopping you from doing the same to me?’ she wanted to ask him but didn’t as she instead continued to back away from him putting as much distance as possible between them knowing that she would already have run if not that she knew Cain was faster than her and would catch her.
"You-you disgust me!" she said meaning every word only to hear Cain chuckle in response as he turned around to walk towards the bed putting more distance between them as he sat on the bed with his gaze still focused on her face when he spoke.
Violet beyond flabbergasted to hear the words that streamed out of his mouth after her sudden outburst.
"I killed a couple of people that deserved it and you killed one person! What’s the difference? If I’m a monster then you’re one too!" Cain responded saying words that made Violet tremble as she plastered herself to the door.
"Wha-what?" she stammered out only to hear him continue to speak almost like he wasn’t done speaking yet.
"Maybe-maybe the problem is that you’ve not killed enough!" his tone lower in a way that made Violet convinced that he was actually serious about the words that were coming out of his mouth. "...either that or you’ve not been tortured enough!"
"...i can’t figure out which one would work more!" his voice still deep and low as he looked at her only for Violet to look more intensely and see a hidden sort of madness in his eyes when he looked at her even as he slowly got back to his feet and began to move closer to her.
"I disgust you? Then maybe I should dig out those beautiful purple eyes of yours and cut off your tongue" he said even as Violet’s trembling only got worse the closer Cain moved to her her hands already darting towards the door handle prepared to pull it open.
"...cause if I recall you didn’t look at the guard with disgust...you couldn’t even meet his gaze!" but at that point, Violet couldn’t hold it in pulling the door handle open as the space around her suddenlyfelt too choked up for her to continue to stand in.
But before she could pull open the door and dash away, Cain closed the distance between them stamming the for shut with his hands with a loud and heavy thump even as he towered over her with a cold and dark expression in his eyes.
"Tell me? Which one is better?" he asked but Violet with tried tears on her cheeks immediately shook her head even as she lowered her head to the ground, grinding her teeth together as she pulled her hands away from the door handle and lifted her gaze to look at him.
Stunned by what she saw as she noticed that his usually golden brown eyes was now tinged with a subtle red colour that she had only seen when she transformed to his beast.
In a bid to survive, even though her instincts screamed against it, Violet leaned away from the wall and fell right into Cain who stood in front of her even as she willed her body to stop trembling knowing that there was nothing she could do about her heart that raced fast enough for her to think it was about to split out of her chest.
"I-I’m just scared..." she whispered out loud even though all the thoughts that filled her mind was how to escape and how quickly she could do it even as she felt Cain’s arms instantly pick her up like she was a feather turning around to carry her towards the bed as he spoke.
"Of what? He’s dead!" a vague tone of annoyance in his tone as he dropped her right into the bed and slowly began to take odd his clothes tossing them to the floor even as he moved to rip her shirt open with a flick of a finger, his gaze much more intense than ever before as he whispered words that truly plunged fear into her very soul.
"If ever you say I disgust you again! I can’t promise that you’ll ever use that tongue again!"
