Predatory Marriage — Chapter 261. Confrontation (1)

Pondering the mory, Leah was certain that that boy had been Ishakan. Though of course, he had been completely different as a boy.

The Ishakan she knew was always relaxed, a characteristic of the truly powerful. He was never rushed, never angry, and she could never rember him yelling once, unless it was sothing related to her.

But that boy had been a ferocious little stranger, thin of build and delicate in appearance. It was a sharp contrast to his powerful adult body, almost like a beast in his vitality. But his eyes were the sa. Their coldness, and that mysterious, glowing gold was unforgettable.

If she had t Ishakan back then, she certainly should have rembered him. The only way she would have lost that mory would have been to so spell.

Of all the mories that had sprung up in her mind, this mory made her feel particularly…strange.

Leah adjusted her disheveled clothing as she waited for her headache to go away. She couldn’t waste anymore ti. Ishakan was waiting for her.

And anyway, she didn’t think she would solve the puzzle just by thinking about it. It would be sothing else to discuss with him. But as soon as she tried to rise, her legs wobbled under her and nearly sent her sprawling again. –Posted only on NovelUtopia

Soone caught her before she could fall and Leah turned back with a smile, expecting Ishakan.

And then she imdiately yanked away, trying to break free of the grip.

The man’s hand followed her, an increasing and unpleasant pressure on her skin. Blue eyes looked down at her.

“Please let go, Your Majesty,” she said calmly.

But Blain only gripped tighter.

“Where are you going?”

“……”

“Your body is weak. Obey and return to the palace.”

Leah only stared at him silently, and Blain’s smile was knowing.

“And it looks as if you’re going to et the barbarian. If I let you alone, you’ll spread your legs for him, won’t you?”

How could he say such crude things? Leah didn’t understand it. The words stung her like needles, and if anything, it seed to her that he was frustrated he couldn’t physically hurt her. Yanking on her arm, he pulled her before him, and his head bent inches from hers.

“You should not be unaware of how an impure bride is treated,” he warned, low, as his gaze swept over her body. “I would have saved you from Byun Gyeongbaek, if you had given a little…”

He looked at her coldly.

“Ungrateful bitch.”

The words were like a dagger to her heart, and all Leah could do was laugh bitterly inside. How long had she believed that the way Blain treated her was the way a man was supposed to treat a woman? All this ti, she thought if she loved Blain, then she should act as he wished.

Now she knew the truth. Blain had used her love against her, to manipulate and mistreat her.

When she had s3x with Ishakan, she felt connected to him. He had never forced Leah to do things she didn’t like, and he cared that she felt good. He even held himself back for her sake. He had never abused her if she didn’t know how to do sothing well, or did it poorly.

Nor did he have s3x with other won in front of her, and tell her it was her fault because she couldn’t f*ck him herself. Ishakan never blad her for anything.

Leah shuddered. Her heart was pounding so fast as all the contradictions rose in her mind, and the sickening surety that she must get down on her knees and beg Blain’s forgiveness filled her, threatening to conquer her.

Automatically, one hand went to her belly, and the thought of the life there made her quickly remove it. Her hands clenched into fists so tight, her nails bit into her palms.

“…if that’s the case,” she said quietly, “then Your Majesty also acted indecently.”

Every day, he had a woman in his room. Sotis more than one, sotis he had multiple won at the sa ti, to satisfy his desires. It was ridiculous for him to criticize her, when he treated won like replaceable objects.

“If you don’t want an impure bride, then you may cancel our engagent,” she said firmly. “If it is purity Your Majesty wants, there is none left.”
