Chapter 48 Suffer Like This
Zoravec sat on the table once again with his arms crossed as he glanced at the ladies with a grin. He knew that now he held the privilege over them and it was easy to control them. Since the blood bond was working effectively he did not want to lose that perk. Zoravec sat down immediately before the two women could start spouting shit again.
He massaged the temple and rubbed the area in between his eyes. Zoravec was no doubt annoyed by them for lying and for not giving him any chance to speak. Those two had been bickering ever since the whole story began to unfold. It was not a surprising thing that he took a few moments to comprehend everything.
However in that time period Devi and Hecate had already reached each other\'s collars. Well, not literally. It made Zoravec think of something immediately because he could not risk losing any of them. Now that he had used the perks of blood bond and had both of them quietly sitting in front of him. Zoravec was finally able to confront them and talk to the ladies without any interruption.
"Now let\'s get this straight, okay. I am unable to swallow all of thus….this truth so suddenly."
Zoravec turned his head towards Hecate as he addressed her issue. He was sure that the feelings he had for her before finding out the truth were different. And whatever he experienced about her now was something conflicted.
Nonetheless Zoravec shook his head regarding the new emotions he felt towards Hecate. He clearly blamed it over the bite he once casted on her in childhood. After all, how could he have lewd emotions for an old lady. Hecate was in her mid forties and had a wrinkled face, she was not some young curvy beauty on women would drool.
It was not possible to develop feelings for such a face because he had never seen her body. So, nude excitement was not a chance but due to the blood contact between them he felt attached to her. However, Zoravec hid his feelings and intended to get everything settled with them first. That\'s why he first tried to talk to Hecate since she had brought him up and cared for him.
"You did wrong by stealing me, even though I have sympathy for you I can\'t help but admit it. Because whatever happened to you was not good and nobody deserves to lose their loved ones. I….I don\'t know what to say to you, honestly."
Zoravec sounded hurt as he paused for a moment and gave a bitter smile to Hecate.
The old woman knew what it meant and of course how couldn\'t she grasp what he was trying to convey. She brought him up since he was an infant, showered love and care over him. Hecate knew he was devastated and his facial expressions made her guilty for everything she had done.
He wanted to speak but due to the restrictions caused by the command she could not utter a single word. Whereas Devi was in a similar state although she was calmly kneeling because according to her she was not guilty of anything. The demoness assumed she was clean in his eyes and Zoravec was just angry over her due to the excessive dramatic situation she had created.
"I won\'t say everything is normal between us now, as much as I want it to be, it\'s not the same anymore. I am not able to forgive you but don\'t worry I will not leave this place."
Zoravec knew that he had no other roof available to hide himself. That\'s why he did not stress on that topic so Hecate would not pay heed to that.
"But I want some time alone without you, it\'s still tough for me to figure out the things at the moment. I know you want me to stay so I will, no matter how much I resent you now. I want you to suffer but not like this, you have to see me every day like this around you."
He leaned in with a scary threatening expression which made Hecate worry about the upcoming days.
She did not intend to make him upset and now right now, when Zoravec\'s powers were in the beginning stage of awakening. Hecate knew if his powers somehow cast an outburst it would be bad for her. She acknowledged immediately that if Devi could not possess him, it clearly indicated that his powers were stronger.
"I want you to suffer like this daily till I am satisfied."
He warned her knowing that she could not speak until the charm wore off. Zoravec wanted to make sure that she knew what it meant to be disheartened. Whereas Hecate wanted to say something but due to the blood bond she could dot do anything.
However a tear crawled down on her cheek upon hearing those words. She did not want to be a mere thing in the house whom he would never see or talk to again. Hecate blankly stared at him without uttering anything, her face and disheartened eyes made it clear that she felt devastated.
"Mm, also do not think I don\'t have anything to say to you too."
Zoravec turned his head towards Devi and addressed her. The demoness was proud of herself and was confident in her capabilities. She had no clue why would he ever talk to her like that, she had been nice to him ever since her arrival.
Although Devi completely forgot that Hecate\'s words had already tied a knot in his heart and mind. Now Zoravec was unable to believe in anyone or to even let anyone close to him. How could he put his faith in her when she had been clear about possessing his body as the vessel?
Devi\'s own words became her doom but for some reason Zoravec did not intend to release her from his bond. Well, not like he was even aware how to do that.
