Mated To The Cruel Prince novel Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Her Worst Nightmare

Everything was getting out of control and though Aldric loved the chaos, it was spinning out of his control. The human was moving faster than his plans and he loved to be in control.

It did surprise him though, he presumed Islinda was a dumb human but she was more interesting than he thought. He recognized the Iron arrow she purchased, the weapon that could very much end his life if she struck him in the heart. She was making a great fortification.

But humans would always be weak because she hesitated again. He could see the emotions; the conflict in her eyes. Aldric expected that with the weapon in her hand, she would strike at him, and perhaps, with the crowd around, they would be enough to subdue him while the Iron weakened him.

Yet, she didn’t.

Why?

The both of them owed each other nothing, so why does the human hesitate? It made him more than curious. If only he could get into her head and know what she was thinking. But after influencing Remy like this, Adric wanted Islinda with her mind intact. It made the game more challenging and fun.

She was clearly in denial, refusing to believe that he was not human. The little human clearly wanted him to remain the sweet, innocent, and adorable Eli that he faked to be. Nonetheless, he would grant her the wish and remain her sweetheart, Eli. He wished to see how everything would play out.

However, Adric forgot that Fate loves to play its games as well and this time threw him a curveball he did not expect in the name of bean cakes. Since he came into the human realm, Aldric had not bothered about sustenance since food here did not sustain him and he only ate it to keep up with appearance.

Until that moment.

He could not forget the way the flavor exploded in his tongue and though he could not sense any energy within the snacks, it was safe to say that he found the one food that held his interest - just like the human, Islinda. Having not eaten for days, it stirred his appetite and he devoured it all. Yet, it was not enough.

"More," He demanded.

She could not tease him like this, not when he just found the one food he loved in the human realm.

"And I said I have no more coins on me. Moreover, that’s enough bean cake for the day, not unless you want to get yourself sick." She scolded him and that made him see red. frёewebnoѵēl.com

How dare she speak to him that way? He was a Fae, a dark prince, far superior to her. And if he wanted to destroy her, he would get rid of her soul altogether. His people feared him for what he could do, yet this puny earthling openly rebuked him. She dared to deny him what he wanted.
