Chapter 19 Work hard

Chapter 19 Work hard
Selene 

“I’m so sorry. I…I was..” My voice trailed off and I felt Dain’s hard gaze on me. I hoped he was not going to punish me for pretending to faint. He might have asked me to go ahead and sleep, but what if he was planning something else? I’d be done for if he were. 

“Who tried to touch you? Did he touch you?” There was something dark in the way Dain asked if Julian had touched me. I was not going to mention Julian’s name or anything. 

“No. He tried to. He tried to touch me several times. He was always trying to force himself on me.” I sniffled and Dain assessed me with his eyes, but he said nothing more. We both remained standing in silence and I wanted to ask Dain if I could walk away when he spoke. 

“Who is this he?” 

“My stepfather.” I swallowed, then bit on my lower lip. I shouldn’t have told Dain it was my stepfather. I should have said something else. A neighbor or a merchant may have died from a virus. What if he inquired more about Julian? 

Luckily, he asked no more questions on the issue. But instead said, “We have to talk.” My heart jumped and I knew exactly what Dain was referring to. I knew exactly what he wanted to talk about. 

I would go down on my knees and apologize. I went down on my knees immediately and Dain narrowed his eyes at me. He cleared his throat and then continued. “Why did you do it?” Right. Why did I have to faint? I would have come up with an excuse, but as I racked my brain, there was no reasonable excuse to give to explain to Dain why I faked my faint. Nothing. So I decided to come clean. It was even better if I told him the truth about why I did what I did. 

I was tired. “I did it because I was tired.” I swallowed. I was tired of the endless rough sex. My pussy was always so sore and I would not recover from the previous sex before Dain would go in again. 

“Tired?” He looked down at me. “Tired from what?” 

“Everything.” I sighed. “I’m sorry Alpha, but if I’m being very honest, everything here is so exhausting for me. You and Ravenna, you guys make things tiring for me.” I just blurted out those words and then I bit my lower lip. Maybe I shouldn’t have said that. 

“Me?” Dain's eyes narrowed but there was a calm look on his face. A face that was completely different from the feral and harsh expressions that he always had plastered on his face. 

“Yes, you.” I swallowed. “The sex, it’s exhausting. And then Ravenna, makes me work so hard all day. I’m just a weak human Alpha,” I faked a sob. 

“Every time, I come here and you fuck me. You are neither gentle and you don’t even care if I get wet. All you are after is coming inside me and I get it, it’s my duty to serve you as your slut.” My heart tightened but I continued. “You go so hard on me and you are even getting rougher each day. It does not help that your thing is so big and it feels like it’s breaking me apart all the time. I don’t even get pleasure, I get pain. Then when you’re done, I return to my room and barely get time to sleep. I would feel so sore and Ravenna would keep making me work so hard when my body is still so tired from the previous night with you. That is what exhausts me and earlier, I knew that my body would not be able to take you. So I pretended to faint—“ My voice trailed off and I looked away from Dain and stared at the ground instead, biting down on my lower lip. 

“So you want pleasure?” He asked and I began to shake my head. But I stopped. I was tired of the painful sex. 

I nodded, “It would be better if I enjoyed it a little.” I choose my words carefully. But it would actually be better if Dain prepared me. I was never ready, he just went in. It hurt. 

“I’m sorry for what I did. I know that it is stupid, but I did not have a choice. I was desperate.” to get rest. To get sleep and it actually did pay off. I got a good sleep and maybe punishment from Dain. I was yet to find out what he intended to do for me.

“You know that you do not deserve pleasure right?” I swallowed deep. 

“I know. I’m just a mere slave, but Ravenna, she—“ 

“Does she make you work that hard?” I quickly nodded my head. She was a heartless witch. She had no sympathy for her and I should have really stayed off her path. Mira was right when she said that I shouldn’t make an enemy of Ravenna. 

“I see.” Dain slowly nodded his head and then he looked at me. “I seriously don’t know what I should do with you. But leave. Put on your clothes and leave.” There was no punishment. He was dismissing me, just like that. There was no sex instead. 

“Thank you Alpha.” I breathed out and I was already grabbing my clothes. Hurriedly wearing them on so that I could run out before Dain would change his mind and decide to have sex with me. 

“Thank you Alpha. Thank you.” I kept bowing my head, repeating my words as I ran out of his room. Fuck! Pretending to faint was worth it. It was fucking worth it. I was finally able to kiss a day of sex. Finally, 

I knew what would be coming the next day. I did not need Dain to tell me to report to his room. It was going to happen. But yet, I was glad that I was able to miss a day and then get good sleep.
