Married To The Devils Son.👿

Chapter 38

Lucian had been gone for four days now and Irene and I got pretty close. She was a very honest person,
never scared to say her opinions and I felt some kind of connection with her. It was as if she could
understand me and what I was going through. Strange, because I was sure that she couldn’t have gone
through what I did, although she might have gone through worse.
As days went by I really admired her more and more. She was a beauty with brains, very smart with her
words and very graceful with everything else she did. But I was still doubtful and didn’t trust her
entirely. Not that she did something suspicious, I just wanted to be careful.
Thanks to her the days didn’t seem awfully long anymore, we would chat and laugh and unlike many
maids, she had a genuine laugh, not a forced one. You could see she laughed because she wanted to and
not because she was scared to offend me.
My thought slowly drifted to Lucian. Even though I liked Irene’s company I still missed Lucian.
“His Highness is alright.” Irene said pouring me her delicious tea. “He will be back very soon.”
I didn’t even bother to ask how she knew. She just knew things and they were always true.
“Irene?”
“Yes, My lady?”
“You said you knew what I should do. What should I do?” I asked.
“Let me tell you what Klara will do first.” she said taking a seat in front of me.
“When she marries his highness she will try to bear him a child as soon as possible. The wife that gives
birth to the king’s first son runs the inner court which means you will lose all your power, furthermore
her children will become a threat to yours especially when they get older. What you need to do is to
bear his highness a child which means you can’t remain innocent anymore.”
I never thought that far. Klara wasn’t only a threat to me but she would be a threat to my children as
well. As if she knew that I was feeling threatened “Don’t be bothered by her, My Lady. You have
something she doesn’t and it is your husband’s heart and trust.”
Heart? Did Lucian love me? I knew he cared about me a lot and he even told me he wanted me but he
never said he loved me.
Oliver came to the garden where we were sitting.
“My Lady, His Highness is coming back tonight.” He said. I looked at Irene and she gave me a smile that
said I told you.
As the sun went down I got more and more nervous and excited. I had bathed in flower-scented water
and washed my hair with scented soaps and oils. Irene brushed my hair and put some paint on my l-ips,
then she brought me a beautiful satin nightgown decorated with lace and made me wear it.
“You look beautiful My Lady.” She said looking at me satisfied.
“I…I don’t know what to do.” I said nervously. She walked closer and took my hands in hers.
“You don’t have to do anything when you look this beautiful.” She said “You just relax. There is a big
chance nothing will happen tonight. His Highness will probably be very tired after such a long journey. I
just prepared you in case”
She suddenly looked at the window. “He is here. I leave you now.” She said letting go of me. I swallowed
nervously as she left me alone.
It felt like hours before I heard the cracking sound of the door opening and shortly after Lucians stood
there. Without thinking I ran and enveloped him in a hug surprising myself and him.
He wrapped his arms around me as he chuckled.
“I should leave often if I will get hugs like these,” he said.
He smelled so good, like spices as usual. Before melting in his embrace and getting lost in his scent I
pulled myself away from him. I had almost forgotten how sinfully beautiful he was. His black hair fell
gracefully over his broad shoulders as he watched me with those mesmerizing eyes of his, and those
l-ips. I tried not to think of how they felt on mine, or maybe I should.
Slowly a smile curved his l-ips as he noticed me staring at him.
“Where were you?” I asked trying to think straight. The smile on his face disappeared.
“Let’s not talk about it.” He said walking past me and to the bed. He began to take his military attire off.
“I was worried. You have no weapons and you just left.” I said. He didn’t say anything but he clenched
his jaw. He was clearly upset about something so I didn’t push any further.
“How do I look?” I asked instead. Irene had made me look sed-ctive but I didn’t know if it was working.
He stopped in his track and let his eyes sweep over my body quickly as if he couldn’t decide whether to
look or not before he returned to take his clothes off looking more upset.
“You look beautiful,” he said avoiding to look at me. I walked closer but I almost felt him stiffen at my
approach so I stopped.
“Didn’t you miss me?” I said in barely a whisper afraid to hear his answer. Why was I asking such
questions? It was unlike me.
He closed his eyes and inhaled sharply.
“I did, I am just tired, Hazel.” He said sounding slightly irritated. What had I done to make him angry? I
was confused. “Will you blow the candles off I need some sleep.”
Lucian tried to focus on anything but Hazel laying next to him on the bed. He felt like the worst person
on earth every time he disappointed her. But he just couldn’t give her what she wanted especially not
tonight when his demon was right on the surface. He had killed too many people these last days and
seen to much blood and suffering. Yes, he even killed his own brother Adam. He felt both disgusted and
dirty, but if he had to kill his brothers to protect Hazel then he would.
Hazel, he clenched his teeth h-rder. She smelled so good and felt so warm and soft as he held her in his
arms earlier. And her sweet voice, how could he ignore her? He knew that he couldn’t avoid her forever
but he wanted to be with her at least when his demon was at his best.
As soon as she fell asleep he left the room. Finally, his body could relax and he could breathe. He needed
some kind of release, he was on the edge of losing his mind.
While walking through the dark halls he felt someone follow him. Looking back he saw nothing and
continued walking. He still felt as if someone was following him. He stopped and looked behind him.
“Whoever you are, show yourself,” Lucian said. He heard a chuckle before the figure of a man appeared
from the shadows. He was wearing all black making his long silver hair stand out even more. His eyes
were as dark as his gaze and his skin so pale he wondered if this man ever walked in the sun. He looked
frightening yet…beautiful.
“We meet again.” The man said and Lucian instantly recognized his voice. It was the man from his
dream.

Chapter 39

“Who are you?” Lucian asked. The man walked closer.
“You should ask what I am instead.” He said. The man was tall slightly taller than him and Lucian could
feel the power coming from him.
“Are you like me?” Lucian asked remembering the man’s claws.
“And what are you?” The man said. That was a good question. Lucian didn’t really know what he was. All
he knew was that he was different.
“I don’t know.”
The man narrowed his dark eyes, They were frightening.
“I am not like you.” The man said. “But I am not here to tell you what I am. If you want to win this war
you need to stop being softhearted. You need to do whatever you need to do”
“Why would you care about me winning this war?” Lucian asked.
“I really don’t care, I just don’t like your brothers.” He said.
“Do you know my brothers?”
“Yes.” He said with a sigh as if he was tired of all the questions, still, Lucian couldn’t stop himself from
asking.
“How do you know them? How did you enter the castle?”
“If I can enter your dreams it’s not that difficult to enter a castle.” He said then looked me up and down
and shook his head.
“Tsk, tsk. Don’t fight your demon too much, accept it instead.” He smiled then just like that he
disappeared into thin air.
“Wait!” How did he know about his demon?
“My Lady?” I opened my eyes slowly and looked directly into Irene’s. “It’s late you should wake up.”
I sat up on the bed and yawned while rubbing my eyes. Irene smiled at my action.
“You are like a little cat.” she said.
“I like cats.” I smiled. ” I wish I had one.”
I looked to my left. Lucian was gone.
“His Highness was probably tired last night.” She said trying to comfort me.
“I don’t think he wants me.” I said. Even though he had told me he wanted me but every time we k-ssed
he almost got sick and distanced himself from me. Maybe I was just bad at it.
“Of course he wants you. A man would be blind not to.”
“You are just being kind.” I said climbing down from the bed and heading to the bathroom.
“You know I am very honest My Lady.” Yes she was but she was kind too.
“I just don’t know what to do to…to…”
“To sed-ce a man?” She finished.
“To make him want me.” I corrected but that made her laugh.
“It’s the same thing My Lady.” Yes, Of course.
I took my nightgown off and walked into the hot water.
“Don’t worry. I will teach you everything you need, My lady.”
I sat on the bed, watched Irene and listened while she gave me advice on what do to all while showing
me.
“First, pretend like you are not even trying to sed-ce him. So when he comes back sit in front of the
mirror and pretend like you are preparing to go to sleep.” She sat in front of the mirror and picked up a
brush and began to brush her hair.
“Start brushing your hair and putting oils onto your skin. When putting oils on your arms, neck and
shoulders do it slowly and make sure he sees you.” She removed the hair from her neck and car-ssed
her neck slowly moving down to her shoulder and further down her arm with fluid movements.
“You should even try to lift your dress and put some oil on your legs. Try to talk to him while you do all
these things to grab his attention.” She said. She put her leg on the footstool the she lift her dress slowly
and began to m-ssage her leg. “Like this,” She said running her hands up and down her leg. I couldn’t
help but giggle. Was I really going to do that?
“Smile while you talk to him and speak in a low voice.” She said lowering her voice ” and blink with your
eyes a few times while you speak.”
She looked like a sed-ctress who wasnät even trying to sed-ce someone. If I did what she was doing I
would look clumsy and foolish.
“What should I talk to him about?” I asked.
“Anything pleasant, something that will lighten his mood.” I nodded and she went on telling me a few
other things I could do if the first things didn’t work out.
“If you want to sed-ce him then you need to sed-ce his senses, what he sees, hears and smells. If he
likes what he sees, hears and smells then he is all yours.”
“Irene?”
“Yes, My Lady.”
“The person you love, are you together,” I asked.
“Yes, My Lady.” She smiled.
“Can I meet him sometime?” I was really curious to know the kind of man she fell in love with. Whoever
he was, he was lucky to have a beautiful and smart woman like her.
“Of course My Lady. If that’s what you want.” then she suddenly looked at the door.
“His Highness is on his way I’ll leave you alone.” She said and left. I really wanted to know how she knew
these kinds of things.
After a while, Lucian opened the door and entered while I was still sitting on the bed. I could feel my
heart speeding up a little as he ran his fingers through his hair and smiled at me.
“Good morning wife.” He seemed to be in a better mood but I was still a bit hurt by his actions last night.
“Good morning.”
“Did you have breakfast?” He asked, slowly walking closer. It was actually in the middle of the day, time
to eat lunch but I woke up late.
“Yes.” I replied. He walked even closer until he stood a bit from where I was sitting. I looked up to meet
his gaze as he looked down at me. Would I really be able to sed-ce this man? I wasn’t as sed-ctive or
nearly as beautiful as Irene. What if I made a fool of myself?
He put his hand below my ear and car-ssed my cheek with his thumb.
“Hazel.” He said his voice soft and warm like the summer breeze.
“Yes.” His thumb traveled to my l-ips.
“Don’t ever think I don’t want you,” He said his voice low. “I do but I am afraid to hurt you.”
Something dark flickered through his eyes as he continued “You know I can.”
Why was he trying to frighten me?
“But you wouldn’t.” I said.
He lowered himself until his face was close to mine.
“Yes, I would if was in the mood to do so.” He said his breath fanning my face. “So don’t ever try and
sed-ce me again because these days I am in the mood to hurt someone.”
Now, I wasn’t listening to what he was saying because his face was so close, his l-ips so close that if a
leaned in just a bit they would touch mine.
“Are you listening Hazel?”
“No,” I whispered surprised by the need I heard in my own voice.
He pulled away and stood straight again. Then he looked at me with a serious expression.
“Yes, I listened. But you won’t hurt me. I know.” I said. I don’t why he believed he would hurt me.
He looked at me for a while in silence before he spoke.
“I killed Adam. I killed my brother Adam.”
