Hell Marriage

Chapter 34: The perfect Idea

Ava’s POV

I smiled again as I remembered what happened between Connor and I, in his library, he had made love to me on his reading table, with my butt on the table, my legs dangling wide open and with him standing between, the emotions and sensations had been great and intense, my wolf had been howling in my eyes, I was so happy, since I had shifted my wolf has never spoken to me, I had try to draw her out but she had refused to speak stubbornly, but she had spoken while Connor and I were having sex, she had howled loudly, I thought I would go deaf, she had stop shouting in my head after a while.

moment just before Climax, I had felt an intense on my neck, but I hadn’t really noticed till everything was over, I leaned on Connor, spent and Content, no almost Content, Alaina’s request for freedom kept bothering me, and now as I stood in the kitchen mixing a new recipe with Mia helping me, I brood again on how to get her out.

I have the wrenching gut feeling that tells me, she’s better off in the dungeon.

I stopped the direction my thoughts were heading to, how I even think like that, the lady had helped me in time past, and she’s stuck in there because of me, no, not because of me, I didn’t put her there, she was stuck in there because she had rendered help to me when I needed it, if she had looked away that day and not helped, perhaps, one way or the other, I would have gotten to Connor, but maybe Nicholas would have even discovered my presence and would have brought me back to the palace and he would have taken Connor from that place and I would have lost him forever. And Alaina would have been saved from all of this.

But she had risked it all and had helped me and so in a way, I did indeed brought all these upon her, so I’m responsible for putting her there, for the Love of the moon, they should have been grateful towards her, but they had held her in prison for the help she’d rendered, but now it’s time to get her out and reward her for her deed. But how do I even sway Connor?

“You look disturbed my lady?” Mia asked, in her singsong voice,

“Oh please, I’ve told you to call me by my name many times already, do I have to beg and plead before you do?” I asked the kitchen Matron, playfully.

“Very well then child, what disturbs you so?, a moment, you were smiling from ear to ear, in another moment, you were frowning with such Concentration, that you spilled some of that fine flour, you’re busy mixing, tell me, what tears at your heart so?” Still reluctant to call me by my name, and speaking in her strange Manner.

I decided against telling her, then I decided to tell her.

She’s like a mother to me, the warm light that seem to always in her smile, and her dark green eyes, that looks at me now, with such intensity, her eyes looked like they were filled with great wisdoms, and understanding of all the way things are.

Her rounded body, has a strange warmth that calms, a child’s fear when hugged, which is so strange, since Vampires are meant to be cold, but being here, in their clan and coven, it’s so different, I’ve found and met different types of their specie, the cold ones were here all right.

According to a maid, Mia has lived for, one hundred and forty four years, if she’s a day!.

And she has started working in the kitchen, from the young age of six, she has been a vampire from birth, though she’s not a pure blood, her parents were not elders, but it is really difficult for vampires to birth a child, except of course they were true bloods, but Mia’s parents were not, this makes her rare and unique, she’d been in the coven right from birth, and she’ll live at least three hundred years more, before her soul weakens, back to the issue at hand,

Mia had grown up here, and she knows things I don’t, in my private Thoughts, I think of her as my Ancient mother.

“Speak child, you can tell me” Mia urged silently,

‘Tell her and listen to her, she knows more than you do’ I was startled to hear the voice, soft and clear in my head, it’s my wolf, I stood in silence for a minute.

‘Is that you?, are you my other self?, my wolf’ I asked, sending her a massage in my head, wherever she is, though I know she’s a part of me, she lives within me.

‘At the moment, just listen to the pretty old lady, we’ll talk later’ My wolf said.

‘It’s rude to call someone old, and pretty at the same time, it sounds like you’re mocking them.’ I chided.

‘Whatever, just listen to the old woman, though I feel, you’ll get in trouble with her ideas.’ My wolf said.

‘Its……’

“Child?” Mia asked cautiously

“There’s something I’ll like Connor to do for me but, I know, and he had made it plain, that he doesn’t even want to hear of the matter, talk less of doing them” I said, saddened anew.

“Oh child” Mia smiled gently and warmly, years of wisdom behind her smile.

“There are ways to make a man submit to a woman’s wishes” Mia said, chuckling softly, I know the woman has a great deal of control over her husband, he worships her, but I’m confused, how are we supposed to make our partners bend to our wishes.

“There are ways, to make a man change his mind, naturally, tricks that must be used seldomly and must not be misused, and not all the tricks works on makes, you must find the one that works do your husband.” She smiled, knowledge in the gleam of her gaze.

“But I don’t understand Mia, what ways?” I asked, confusion must have been evident on my face, because she laughed, though softly.

“Why don’t you try seduction first my dear, and if it doesn’t work, we’ll find another way, to bring the man to submission, though I think it’ll work, your husband is really taken with you” She said, and like a light illuminating my darkness, I smiled.

“Oh Mia” I hugged her tightly, she must have been surprised, for she waited a bit before returning my hug.

‘I knew it, the way this women think, especially the old ones, is really beyond me.’ My wolf said suddenly, amusement in her voice.

“Don’t be rude!” I said, but not without laughing, I think my wolf and I, are going to get along just fine.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Connor’s POV

Night time came, I had thrown myself into work at the office, just so I won’t think about what happened between us, yes I had gone back to work, after a very long Time, though I have, lots of excellent Managers and CEOs, and my enterprise, I like to be in the middle of things myself, though my list of listless, managers manage things and make decisions, I make the serious and important decisions myself, Yeah I own Donnacha group of companies, I had since expanded and created other businesses after my Dad’s ruination, he had left the property to me, his other son, knowing how capable I am, and the clan was mine to lead by right and power. I have a head for business, and I had brought the business all the way from near scrap, to what it is now, One day I’ll have to relinquish my power to my heir, what if my heir doesn’t want the Company, I’ll never force him/her to take charge but….

Those matters are for later, now I have to go home and fulfill the promise I made to Ava earlier, we’ve got to go to the club.

I got home, and went to the room, I showered and got dressed quickly, I knew, Ava would Taunt me if I don’t honor my promise of going with her and her…… fake brother to a club.

I went down, ordered for coffee and sat down, waiting for Ava to come. I lay my jaw on my chest, brooding and waiting…….

Someone dropped something, perharps a cup… I looked up to see the maid, staring, mouth dropped open, and eyes wide. It was my Coffee that had dropped, and black substance had spilled on the floor, I followed the direction of her gaze and what I, myself saw at the head of the stairs blew me a thousand years away.
