Zarin got furious when Heaven told him that Zamiel bit her. He began to curse and say that he would kill Zamiel. Heaven barely Stepped him from making the mistake of seeking out Zamiel. It's not like he could win a fight against him.
"Zarin, please relax. The mark is gone."
"How can I relax? That man bit you against your will. Does your father know?"
Heaven panicked. "Promise me you won't tell him."
Zarin turned away from her, not wanting to make that promise.
"Zarin! Don't make me regret that I told you. Promise me you won't say a word to anyone."
Zarin swore under his breath. "Alright, I promise. But if he comes for you again, I'll kill him."
Heaven sighed, deciding not to tell him the rest. She only told him about the bite and he was so angry. If she told him the rest, he would put himself in danger.
"Is that why he was here? Because the bite is gone and he want's to bite you again." He asked.
Heaven opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
Zarin shook his head. "I'll stay here with you every night." He said with finality.
"No. I don't want you to."
"I don't care. I am not letting you out of my sight."
"You can't guard me forever. If he wants to bite me, there is nothing you can do or anyone else for that matter. Only I have the chance to do something."
"There is always a way out." Zarin told her. "I won't let him near you."
"Zarin remember, I was the one who went to him. I have it under control." Heaven said, but regretted it when anger blazed through his eyes.
"It's the mark doing all this." He said with clenched teeth.
"The mark is gone." She reminded.
Zarin frowned. "Then why did you go to him?"
How she wished she had the answer to his question. "I don't know." She shrugged.
Zarin hit the table with his fist, causing the wood to break. Heaven was taken aback by his fury. She had never seen him like that before.
"He is manipulating you."
Oh no, Heaven thought. It was a terrible idea, telling him.
"Don't worry. I won't let him near you, but promise me you won't go to him."
How was she supposed to promise him that?
"Heaven, promise me." He urged.
"I can't." It came out as a whisper. She did not want to hurt him.
"Why?" He yelled.
"Because… because he is my husband."
His eyes widened in shock, and he just stared at her for a moment. Heaven was shocked by her own words. That wasn't the way she imagined getting married.
"Heaven, he forced you."
No, he didn't. He just did what he had to do. He never wanted to be mated to her. If she was forced then he was forced too.
"That doesn't change the facts." She said.
"Maybe not, but the mark is gone now. We just need to make sure that he doesn't bite you again and you will be free."
Free? What did it mean to be free? She thought being free was making her own choices.
"Alright. Let's forget about this for a while. We have only been arguing lately. I missed having fun with you. Let's do something fun together like we used to." She tried to distract him away from the topic.
Zarin stood up from his seat and strode back and forth in the room. She could see that he was not willing to let go of the subject.
"You know, your father has been training me. Let's see if you can still win in a fight with me. I bet you won't."
He shook his head at her. freewebnovel.cσ๓
