Chapter 24. Mad Lover
I followed the man while two other men tailed me, making sure I could not escape. We walked down the narrow corridor until we arrived in front of an antique door. He opened the door, stepped aside and gave me a way to enter.
"Sir Diorix is waiting for you."
I nodded slightly and stepped into the room. The door behind me closed as I stepped in. Inside a warm-faced man sat in a large luxurious armchair casually. His head leaned on one hand that rested on his chair's handle. His leather blazer had opened, exposed a half-open white shirt inside it. He stood up from his seat to greet me. "Please sit down."
"Thank you," I replied politely as I sat on the chair facing him.
He walked to a small table filled with wine bottles and crystal glasses that neatly lined up. He poured one of the bottles into two crystal glasses then approached and gave one of it to me. I took the glass from his hand. "I've never seen you before. May I know your name?" he said as he returned to his chair and sipped the wine.
"My name is Lilieth," I replied as I gave him a smile.
"Lilieth..." he repeated then he gave me a mischievous smile. "What a beautiful name as beautiful as the person," he seduced.
"Thank you for your compliment. "
He leaned his back to his chair casually. "I'll get right into the topic. How much should I pay for the tentacle man?" he asked without further ado.
"You mean Andrew?" I bowed slightly as I refused his request politely. "I'm sorry, Sir Diorix. But he is not my slave, he is my knight. He is not for sale."
But he insisted. "I understand, he is very rare. Just tell me the price, I dare to pay no matter how much it costs."
"I'm sorry, sir. But he's not for sale. He is my friend."
He frowned and sighed in disappointment. "Fine, I understand. I can see your friendly attitude in the arena earlier. That's too bad... I like to collect strange creatures like him."
"Once again, I'm sorry sir," I said while looking down once again to show my regret.
He swiftly brought his face close to me, grabbed my chin and raised it. He stared intensely at me. "One more thing, Lady Lilieth... I also like collecting beautiful women like you."
I paused as I stared at his green eyes that glistened like the best emerald. I gazed up at him in a daze, my eyes fixed on him as if there was a charm on it. But then I noticed there was a flow of magic power coming out of his body. At that moment I realized, he tried to hypnotize me with 'Mad Lover' spell. "Hmph! Fine, I'll follow your game."
I smiled without turning my eyes away from him and changed my eyes as if they were empty. "Master Diorix..."
He smiled mischievously and put his wineglass on my lips. "Drink," he ordered.
I drank the wine as he poured it into my mouth. The wine is dripping from my mouth to my breast. He pulled his empty wine glass and threw it on the floor.
-Prangg!
The sound of broken glass broke the silence in the room. He brought his face close to my ear and he kissed me on the cheek and whispered, a faint smell of wine in his breath. "I'm sorry. I'll clean it for you," he whispered as his hand crept to my neckline and tore it, revealing the narrow valley between my twin peaks. He gave me another mischievous smile as he took my glass of wine and poured it into my mouth impatiently. The wine flowed from my mouth to my neck and soaked my dress. Then he threw the glass to the floor.
-Prangg!
"You really are a mess. Now I have to clean it again," he said in a friendly and sweet voice.
He went down and licked the wine drops that wetted my skin from my chest to my neck, his hands pulling my dress roughly. In one pull the top of my dress was torn releasing my twin peaks from the cage. He brought his face closer to my ear and whispered. "Lilieth, serve me tonight."
