BOUND TO THE BEAST : CHAPTER 71 – 80
Lord Vladya contemplated reminding her that even prior to going feral, Daemonikai had never fixated on her—he had barely tolerated her. However, it would be unfair.
Despite Sinai’s often insufferable nature, as the bloodhost to the grand king, she was one of the most powerful and respected females in Urai. In this case, her concerns were valid.
“I have no idea what is going on, Sinai. Perhaps it may be the boy’s smell. Maybe he emits a scent that entices the beast.
A scent that makes it seek him out. Our primal instincts can be unpredictable at times, as you well know.”
“I do. Of course, I do. But this? It is simply too strange. I do not like the sound of it. Not one bit!”
“Why?” he relinquished his grip on the door handle and turned to face her, his brows knitted and nearly reaching his hairline.
“You, above all others, should be elated if, by some miraculous occurrence, his beast has fixated. It could signify something positive.
Perhaps his mind is not entirely lost? Or maybe his sanity is resurfacing. He might become the first Urekai to emerge from madness.”
Sinai’s mouth opened, closed, then opened again. She was dumbfounded. “You, of all people, know that it does not work that way.
There is no return. Once the mind is gone, it is lost forever, and in its stead remains a mere husk. A shell. A ghost of who he once was.”
“I did add ‘miraculously,’ did I not? All the more reason for you to know that it is implausible for the beast to desire the boy as an individual. It was likely a one-time incident,” Grand Lord Vladya exhaled.
He massaged his throbbing temples. “Leave me be, Sinai. I have just returned from a long journey, and I am in dire need of rest.”
“You are right, you are right. It was probably a one-off. Unrepeatable.” The lines of anger faded from her face, and she formed a saccharine smile. “I shall leave you to rest now.”
Leaning in, she planted a kiss upon his cheek, bowed, and gracefully walked away, her smile widening as her gown elegantly swept behind her.

“Are you certain?” Yaz asked gently, his eyes brimming with barely concealed concern.
“I am certain,” Lord Vladya replied, and Yaz nodded. He exited through the sturdy metal gates, securing the locks behind him.
Now, Lord Vladya was left alone in the forbidden chambers with the beast.
Lord Vladya made the decision to come here after resting for hours. He fought solace in this place on days when exhausion overwhelmed him. When he felt far too drained.
Today was one of those days.
Daemonikai’s beast emerged from its favored spot and prowled closer to him.
Vladya remained motionless as the beast circled him, growling and hissing. He suppressed his own beast, bowed his head and tilted it to the side.
At his willing submission, the Feral’s growling ceased. It dug its claws into his side, drawing blood and waiting for retaliation.
Yet, Vladya remained still, even as the beast pressed its claws deeper, pain coursing through his body.
