Touch of Flame-Chapter 34
Malachi couldn’t utter the word. He was not going to say it out loud. He would not!
“Give me a reason Malachi, because I am not one of your subjects who follow your orders blindly.”
He just glared at her trying to contain his anger but God help him…
“Oh right. Because I am whore. I shouldn’t do it for breeding right? It makes sense.” She nodded. “Well, I never wanted children anyway so I think we agree on that. I guess I will just enjoy myself. I never thought it could be such a pleasurable experience to be with a man. It makes me tingle in a strange way.”
He stiffened, feeling the rest of the air leave his lungs at the thought of another man bringing her pleasure and not just touching her.
She blushed a little. “It was just a kiss but…” she shrugged bringing her fingers to her lips as if recalling it. “If I can feel like that just from a kiss imagine…?”
A kiss?
He yanked at the chains again, now almost causing his wrists to break. She shook her head.
“The chains were made to hold five dragons in their beast form so don’t waste your energy.”
Ignoring her he continued to yank. At some point, the sedatives would end although he wasn’t sure what to do next. He knew the chains were made to hold him.
“Stop.” She said but he wasn’t listening. “Stop!”
He paused and glared at her.
“Think king Malachi. You will break the chains then what? Die?”
She was right but why did she care?
“Make a plan. Look around.” She told him. He became confused. What was she trying to achieve? “I will wait for you to escape. I would be very impressed if you succeeded. Isn’t that what you do? Try to impress your breedmate?”
“You are NOT my breedmate!” He growled. “You are nothing but a whore.”
“You are fighting very hard to impress a whore. A human whore. Or ant?” She became thoughtful. “Stop denying it. I will accept you if you manage to escape. I will put my hatred aside and be your breedmate, breeder, whore whatever you wish. You just have to escape before my wedding night.”
Wedding night? He laughed hysterically. She would win either way. He had underestimated her. This was the second time he did such a thing. All this time she had known and studied breedmates.
What else did she know? f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮
She crouched to sit now that she had packed her chair and then she looked up at him. “You were there when my father came with the peace treaties.” 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com
He stiffened. Not now!
“Now I remember. He said he went to the terrorizers.” She became deeply thoughtful, then she looked up at him. “What happened?”
If he told her, she would torture him more. Malachi did remember when her father came to make peace. They had all laughed at him.
“Your expression doesn’t look good.” She said. “It also seemed like you knew who killed my father?”
He clenched his jaw. This was why they could never be together. This was a curse. Not that he wanted to be with her. He had come here mainly to destroy the inventions and the inventor. To destroy her, but now she was destroying him.
She sighed as her eyes became distant. She was recalling something that slowly turned her expression grim. Her cold eyes returned to him and then she stood up slowly. He thought she was going to release her wrath on him but she just looked disappointed and turned around to leave.
“Where are you going?” The chains stopped him from following her.
“Goodbye Malachi. I am not interested in torturing you anymore. I think knowing that you missed your chance at peace and maybe your chance with your breedmate will torture you enough.” She told him and then proceeded to walk away.
“Come back!” He yelled, yanking, tearing, screaming but not getting anywhere. He overdosed on sedatives instead and it clouded his mind.
He fell back against the graviton. Panting, covered in sweat, his wrists broken as his own laugh at her father echoed in his mind. He could possibly not be feeling bad about that man. His inventions were the reason his sister…
But then, he also had to blame himself for that.
‘You are weak, Malachi. Because of your hesitance to destroy them, this happened to your sister.’ He could still hear his father to this day. ‘It is your fault she became like this.’
Yes. It was his fault. That was why he deserved to die as well. He could have stopped it all but because he was a coward he didn’t.
He looked around the cave, trying to see if there was any way to escape despite having done that a thousand times. He hoped there wasn’t. He wasn’t sure what he would do after he escaped when he was still this affected by her.
Another part of him was burning to escape, snatch her away and take her home. Then kill her? He chuckled darkly then roared “Ravina! Come back!”
***
Ravina heard Malachi’s scream all the way to the end of the tunnel. She was glad she tested her theory one last time before she left. She would have to send professor ward some gifts, although it wasn’t time to celebrate yet. What would her next step be? Getting closer to him? Using it to find her sister? Or maybe… her stomach turned as she thought about it.
No. That she could not do that but it would be the ultimate weapon, to actually becoming his breedmate. His queen. That would hurt the dragons but… living with the monsters in her nightmares? She shivered. She didn’t think she could do it.
Breeding with him, not just a dragon but the terrorizer… no! Her head began to spin and she tried to shake it off but she felt faint. Her legs gave in and then she felt the world turn sideways before it disappeared from her sight.
