Chapter 49. House of Flowers
Lilieth's PoV
As soon as I got out of the portal, I fell to the floor. I quickly raised up and realized I had returned to my room in Ironshade Town. I swung my hand to reopen the portal, back to Lord Damon's place, but it seemed like there was a force blocking my access to go there. I waved my hand once again trying to open the portal, but it was in vain. I know he was the one who forbade me to return. Even if I managed to go back, I can not do anything to help him. Feelings of weakness and worthlessness hit me hard. He has helped me and given me a chance to get revenge but until now I have not been able to set him free.
I quickly deep in thoughts, tried to figure out who the one that can hold so much power like that.
"I'm sure it's not Reyn. He can't have that much power."
I tried to connect all the clues I had and realized something, not only Reyn who could not have that much power, but no human being could have that much power. Only demon lords can have it. But what doubt me was, despite his great power but his aura was different from the demon lord. That person aura is also different compared to the silver-haired man who froze the entire underground society.
"Who is he? " I muttered.
An incredible pain that suddenly pierced me dispersed my thoughts. I fell to the floor and grimaced while clutching my chest tightly, enduring the pain in my chest. I tried to regulate my breath.
"He took Lord Damon's power again..."
I breathed heavily, my sweat soaks all over my face and body as I held the pain that overwhelmed me. But this time, there were no screams of pain coming out of my mouth, my lips tightly closed and anger burning in my eyes.
"I will not forgive him ... I will never forgive him ..."
Ten minutes had passed, the pain that pierced my body began to disappear. I stood up as I panted. I felt weak, I even had a hard time for getting up. After I gave my energy to Lord Damon and endured the pain, I only have a little strength left.
I glanced at the window, the sun was still shining brightly. Making a move during the day is too risky for me, but I have no other choice. I have to eat right away, otherwise, I will die. A place immediately crossed my head. A place where I can eat without having to hunt for my prey. A cunning smile developed on my lips as my hair formed a dress that covered my body.
"I can't waste my time."

The sun is still high in the sky, but some customers have started coming to the House of Flowers, a brothel in Ironshade Town. A man in his thirties wearing nice clothes entered the place at vigorous steps. A confidence smile flashed towards the women who lined up neatly, waiting to be booked by him. His name is Mcauley Floyd, a merchant who went from city to city to offer his goods. He had just made a big fortune in Nighthallow City, so he decided to have fun here before he moved to the next city. And of all the brothels and the town he went to, he liked this town and this place the most. This town is rarely visited by the merchants, so every time he came to this place he was greeted with fanfare. All the women came to him and welcomed him like a king.
"Sir Mcauley, where have you been for three months? My women are very lonely without you," flattered Madam Lila. She was this brothel's pimp. While the women who had lined up behind her waved their hands seductively with a sassy smile.
He smiled to reply them as his eyes moved to choose some women who would accompany him today.
He was just about to choose but suddenly a sweet tempting fragrance tickled his nose. In an instant, he felt like he flew up to the sky. He moved his head side to side looking for the origin of this tempting fragrance. A beautiful woman with purple hair stood on the second-floor balcony while staring at him. Her gorgeous curves are clearly visible from her thin dress, a seductive smile adorns her lips and her eyes look at him deeply.
His heart palpitated when he saw her, he had never seen such a beautiful woman like this before.
"How dare the pimp not introduce this beautiful woman to me," he thought.
In an instant, he fell in love with her. He looked at her in a daze, ignoring the other women who began to tease him. She opened her mouth, try to say something to him without letting out any voice, but he could read it from her lips' movements.
"I want you." Those are the words given to him. She raised her hand to point her index finger and moved it towards her repeatedly. It was a clear invitation to him, then she walked away.
Not wanting to lose his chance, he quickly split the crowd of women before him.
"I have found my woman," he said as his feet moved rapidly with enthusiasm up the stairs, chasing her
Once he was on the second floor, he swept his gaze to look for the woman and found her walking down the corridor. A cunning smile developed on his lips as his feet followed her. He followed her inside a room.
"Miss?" he said as his foot stepped into the room. His eyes searched for her.
Suddenly the door behind him closed and a pair of soft hands hugged his body from behind.
"Are you looking for me, sir?" she said with a sweet voice.
He turned around and pulled her closer.
"Of course I'm looking for you, sweetheart," he said as he stroked her face and she responded by looking down shyly.
"I've never seen you before. What's your name?"
"My name is Lilieth, sir."
"Miss Lilieth, will you accompany me to have some fun today?" he said while giving her a teasing smile.
"With pleasure, sir," she replied.
After hearing her answer, he carried her and laid her on the bed. While she just surrendered like prey waiting to be devoured.
"I will not let you go until I am satisfied," he said.
She put her arm around his neck.
"I also will not let you go until I am satisfied," she said as she gave him a sly smile.
