Saving The Villainous Monster From The Male Lead-Chapter 32 - 31 The Notorious Villain
The speed didn’t decrease until they reached the mansion. Eleanore was now huffing and puffing, exhausted from getting dragged all the way here. Even her wrist was in excruciating pain. She could barely breathe, and it felt like her asthma was kicking in. She remembered not bringing her pump along and cursed her luck for that.
As they reached the stairs, Eleanore couldn’t take it anymore, she was wheezing by now, and was in dire need of her pump. Unconsciously, her hand clenched onto the railing surrounding the huge staircase. Her grip was so tight that Caelestis got pulled back.
"Stop it, Caelestis. My— my legs can’t take it anymore. Please listen to me." Eleanore said in her wheezing voice.
"Shut up!" Caelestis yelled, completely ignoring her conditions. "You were going to hurt her after earning her trust. I know it!" He concluded.
"Rubbish!" Eleanore had more to say, but the words that were on her lips, couldn’t leave them to reach his ears.
"Enough!" Caelestis slipped his hand behind her waist and another under her thin thighs, pulling her in his arms and continuing forward.
He threw her in the bed once they reached into her room. Again tightly grabbing her wrists, he pinned her in the bed.
Marina stood there, unable to understand what to do. She panicked and was about to try and help her mistress, but Caelestis’ glare from early on scared her. She stood there for a while, seeing her mistress struggling under the clutches of a mad monster, before quietly leaving the room and shutting the door behind.

"You were going to hurt her?" He repeated his dumb words again. His body looming over her.
"No!" Eleanore retaliated.
Her breathing had softened but her wrists were now in an immense pain and she absolutely hated this position. Caelestis’ eyes were fixed at her from above. Except for his palm and fingers nothing else touched her yet she could feel his heat. Was it because of how angry he was at that moment or was it because he was so close to her? She couldn’t tell.
"Lies!" He yelled again."I will kill you, Eleanore. I will kill you if you do anything to her."
Anger rushed down her veins on hearing that. She had no intention of hurting Stella. The original-owner-of-the-body is at fault. Why must he listen to this rubbish?
"I have no such intentions!" She yelled at his face. "Let me go!" She lifted her leg to kick his strong thigh but Caelestis quickly pinned them down to the bed again. Exhausted by her useless struggles she decided to gather some strength and then perhaps bite some skin off his handsome face.
"Eleanore sinclair. This is a warning. Stay away from stella." He yelled at her again. She felt pain in her ears, her body was shivering under his dangerous presence. But she remained strong.
"You are killing her there!" She yelled back. "You have no idea how I found her. You didn’t even bother seeing if she was still alive." Her breathlessness started to return as she continued to yell at this dumb, branless, spineless man, who had no idea that his actions would only help him lose the girl.
"I knew she was alive."
Caelestis’ ridiculous answers angered Eleanore as he spoke and uttered those rubbish words out of his foolish mouth. She wanted to get out of his clutches and not see his face for some time. The more she saw him the more hard it became for her to breathe.
"You are just an obsessed man, who doesn’t know how to treat a woman. You are killing-" Before she could complete her sentence, her throat got blocked by his strong hands, which squeezed it.
Her wrists were free but now her neck was caught, making her breathing difficult.
Caelestis had lost all his control and had his hands around Eleanore’s neck as anger rose into his flaming red eyes. Eleanore struggled, trying to free herself from this. How could he do that? What the hell is happening? She could only have those questions roaming around in her head as her nails dug deep into his arms.
Obsessed? Caelestis couldn’t believe that Eleanore called his love obsession and that he was trying to kill Stella! He would never do that. He had no such intentions. All he ever wanted was to be loved. Loved by someone if not all. One person whom he can call his own. Why must everyone like Eleanore? She has nothing special. She doesn’t have a title or wealth, no reputation and is a complete savage.
Hael always gave more attention to his troublesome sister than his best friend, his mother always cared more about Eleanore than him and his father never once smiled at his own son, but always laughed with this woman. Now even Stella has taken a liking for her. Why? What’s so great about her?
’She is just a bitch, a stalker, that’s it. Then why do people get attracted to her and not me?’
"Caelestis—!" Eleanore clenched onto his face, digging deep into his cheek, bleeding it dry until he could come back to his senses and let her go.
Soon, she started losing strength, her hand that was clenching on his cheek, dropped. Her body tired and her breath turned uneven. She started wheezeling again, her eyes rolled around scanning the room trying to remember where she had put her pump. When her eyes fell on the cabinet far away from the bed near the start of the balcony, she remembered placing it there yesterday after returning from her visit to the side house.
"Marina!" She called in a low voice, her body unable to move from all the pressure. Her ears started to ring and her eyes started to black out.
