Chapter 43 GRAND LORD VLADYA Grand Lord Vladya strode through the labyrinthine corridors that led toward his domain .
Following the Retaliation War , he had acquired many human slave , but , he never took any of them to his bed .
His loathing was so intense that he feared if he did , he might unleash on the female killing her faster than a feral beast killed its prey .
But , tonight , he would take his first human female to his herl Lord Vladya , a familiar voice called out .
Vladya turned to face Lond Ottal What is it ? A touch of impatience tinged his voice .
A semblance of pity colored Ottais expression as he shook his head .
Do not proceed with it .
Vladya did not feign ignorance , he knew precisely what Ottai referred to .
Nevertheless , he remained silent , crossing his arms , staring Ottai down .
Do not do ft , Vlad , his friend pleaded .
Forcing yourself upon unwilling slaves is a line you have never crossed before .
That is Zaipers move , not yours .
You have never cared enough to even punish a slave before , but what I saw in court … Ottai shook his head .
If you say the word all the unbonded females of our land would run over themselves just to get to you , you need not mount this girl to seek sexual release .
I might as well satisfy my desires with that girl and be done with it , Lord Outai Vladyas eyes darkened , a cynical smile tugging at his hardened features .
I am done fighting my urges , as well as my inner beast .
Your inner beast ? Ottai raised an eyebrow .
I was unaware that was involved .
It was not meant to be , Vladya snapped , before he turned away and resumed his purposeful stride .
Outai quickly followed .
If your beast is indeed interested in her , is all the more reason why you must resist , Vlad .
You might unleash on her .
Good riddance then , Vladya stated without hesitation , continuing to walk .
In his opinion , her death would be a relief , as it would rid him of these strange and disturbing thoughts about the slave princess .
It would be a victory for him .
Do not succumb to this darkness within you .
The time has come for you to fight against it , lest you lose what remains of your humanity .
Vladya halted in his tracks .
Have you forgotten ? I lost everything that fateful night .
Everything .
He did not turn to face .
Ottai as he spoke .
When life ceases to matter , mere concepts such as conscience , morals , and values fade away .
When ones soul is lost , Ottai , there is nothing else left to lose .
Vlad … I know this isnt about Daemonikai , but about Do not even say her name .
Dont you dare , came his low , dangerous whisper .
Ottais sighed , defeated .
Vladya resumed his determined stride , his footsteps echoing through the corridor .
As he neared a turn , Lord Ottai called out once again .
At the very least , make a conscious effort not to kill her .
Remertiber , she serves the grand king .
For the first time , we have a female such as her for him someone he does not kill after mounting .

Chapter 43 459 % Vladya almost retorted that the girls brother seemed to excel in that regard too .
Yet , he refrained .
What was the point ? It wasnt as though he had plans to deliberately end the human girls life .
He simply had no intention of holding back .
AEKEIRA Ackeira knelt within the heart of Grand Lord Vladyas bedchambers , hands clasped before her , head lowered in submission .
As she awaited her fate , the initial nervousness had long abated , how she felt tired .
Resigned .
Numb The door opened , and the grand lord stepped inside .
The click of the lock that followed sealed her fate .
He crossed to the other side of the room and stood against the window , his arms crossed as he gazed out into the night .
For what felt like an eternity , he did not speak to her , not a glance in her direction to acknowledge her presence .
What was going through his mind ? Aekeira wet her lips .
My Lord , please have mercy on me .
I know you are mad at me- Do.
Not .
Speak , he stated coolly , his back to her .
You are not worth the sand I step on .
Why would I , Vladya , be mad at you ? Ackeira lowered her eyes.
His words didnt hurt her , even though his tone suggested otherwise , his posture conveyed something else .
THAT was what scared her .
The silence gnawed at her , awakening her nerves once again .
He crossed to his dresser , and began to shed his ceremonial attire .

Ackeira tried her best not to look , her eyes darting everywhere but at him .
It was like fighting a losing battle against curiosity .
The rustle of fabric filled the air , accompanied by the soft scrape of movements .
Before she knew it , her eyes were fixed on him .
He had his back to her , but the view w was … Ackeira swallowed hard .
His body was the sculpted perfection of a god .
Muscled , chiseled , powerfully built he was a vision both mesmerizing and unsettling , and she found herself unable to tear her gaze away .
Never before had she found cause to admire a mans physique .
Why would she , when every man she had encountered had only brought her suffering and filled her with revulsion ? She was all too aware of the pain they were capable of inflicting As she continued to gaze , a sliver of numbness gave way , replaced by an uneasy prickle of awareness .
The sensation felt unfamiliar .
Disturbing .
The strangeness horrified her .
This was Grand Lord Vladya , the same male she abhorred .
The same lord who held the power to harm her , or even end her life if he chose .
Rise The command startled her , forcefully pulling her from her reverie .
It required a moment for her to comprehend , and upon realization , it felt as though she had been doused with icy water Aekeira rose to her feet , her stance unsteady , her gaze respectfully lowered .
Undress , I want you naked , his tone was cold and clipped .
