Mated To The Cruel Prince novel Chapter 350

Chapter 350: Bound To Him In Service

"To be honest, it was very satisfying watching you make a huge fool of yourself," Aldric said, his hand clasped behind him and delightfully relishing in her embarrassing moment.

Islinda groaned, shaking away the dizziness. Unlike Aldric who found her condition amusing, it was not funny to her at all. She struggled to her feet and the first thing she did once she was stable was to shove Aldric in the chest.

"What did you do?! What have you done to the divider?!" She screamed in his face.

"Ahh, I see that is clear to you now."

"What?" Islinda croaked, a tear running down her face.

He tilted his head, his gaze roving over her, "Hope is a dangerous thing isn’t it?"

"Fuck you, Aldric!" Islinda shoved him once again, the hurt cutting through her, "You said this is my opportunity to escape! You baited me!" She laughed bitterly, wiping away at the tears that now streamed down furiously, "But then this is one of your games, isn’t it? You were always one, sadistic bastard and I was the one to fall for the same lie over and over again. You sure are one lying Fae."

That sentence got to Aldric because the amusement died in his rage and Islinda shivered as face twisted in rage. He pulled her flush to him before Islinda could even blink and she had to hold her breath, as the anger pounded through his body.

He growled, "What did you just call me? A liar? When did I ever lie to you, little human?" His eyes darkened, his hands digging into her arm so tightly it hurt. Islinda wanted to cry out in pain but refused to give him the satisfaction.

"My words were clear Islinda and I quote, ’Islinda still has an illusion that she can leave the Fae realm, it’s time I vaporize that hope.’ That was exactly what I said to you not long ago in the drawing room right before we got here. What about this? I quote, ’If you want freedom, there it is in your face. Don’t you want to take it?’ or this, I quote again, ’I guess we would never find out if you’re able to leave the Fae realm or not?’ So tell me, little human, when did I lie?"

Islinda glared at Aldric, tears coursing down her cheeks unchecked. She should have known that this Fae would destroy her. The signs had been there and yet she chose to ignore them. Islinda had endured the Fae realm because she believed that she would escape one day. She thought all of this would end with just an opportunity — the same opportunity she had this morning and moments ago — only to realize that she had her hopes high for nothing. There was never a way out. Aldric had been telling the truth — all this time — she was stuck in this realm with him for the gods knows how long.

Sadly for Islinda, the ignorant human had pushed the dark Fae prince to the wall. He pressed on with the matter, "You were so deluded with hope that you ignored my warnings and I think that I’ve been patient enough already," Aldric lifted her hand and that was when Islinda saw something that had never been there in the first place.
