BOUND TO THE BEAST : CHAPTER 51 – 60
“What in the sky were you thinking, Emeriel!?” Madam Livia scolded once more. They had returned to Aekeira’s chambers.
“Shouldn’t you be in the festival grounds, serving drinks? What were you doing here? Do you always wish to be whipped!?
Why do you disobey direct orders?” The older woman’s voice brimmed with anger.
Emeriel ignored the prickling sensation in his arm and lowered his head respectfully. “I apologize, Madam Livia.
I am aware that you specifically instructed me not to see Aekeira, but I could not resist. I needed to see her, to ensure she was safe.”
“Do you think it was my idea? Grand Lord Vladya issued that order himself. You do not want to test that male, Emeriel.
He would devour you for breakfast and cast you into a lion’s den if he so wished. That is the kind of male Lord Vladya is. What were you thinking?”
That was the point. Emeriel was not thinking.
The truth is, he did not regret searching for his sister. Even if Lord Vladya punished him, he still would not regret it.
Emeriel absentmindedly scratched his arms, saying nothing.
Madam Livia took a deep breath. “Now go and dress up in your festival uniform. We must proceed to the festival grounds.
That is the only favor I can grant you. But if anyone notices you were not there on time and reports it to Lord Vladya, I will not help you evade punishment.”
It was more than Emeriel could ask for. “I understand. Thank you, Madam Livia.”
As he turned to leave, he scratched his arms again, trying to alleviate the itching. The room felt stiflingly hot. Perhaps he could find some fresh air—
Then, it dawned on him.
It was hot. His body felt scorching. The familiar burn surged from within.
Heat. He was about to go into heat again.
“No, no, no,” Emeriel cried out in horror. His eyes widened like saucers as he took two steps back, away from Madam Livia.
The older woman appeared bewildered. “What is it, Emeriel?”
“No, by the Light-gods, no. Not again.” It seemed like just as he had identified the problem, the heat intensified.
His intimate areas felt hot, wet, and swollen. The prickling sensation focused on his lower belly, causing it to ache intensely.
