Chapter 104: She Has A Lover
—-
"You want their tongues ripped? Hmm.." Ivan quietly pondered over her choice as he stroked his chin, and an amused glint flickered in his red orbs. "From the beginning, I had the same idea in mind. However, It is fine, if you want their tongues, then you shall have it. Consider it as an apology token for their deplorable behavior."
"No wait!"
Before Ivan could give his command so the guards could drag the servants to the punishment room and out of his sight, Samantha had stopped him. To be honest, she never really meant it - okay, maybe she did mean it thirty seconds ago, but she was also being connotative with her decision. She wanted to see if Lord Ivan was being serious when he said he would implement her thoughts for her. She had said something she wouldn’t say on a normal day, she was testing him, and to her greatest shock, he was about to do just that.....it frightened her.
"That won’t be necessary- I - just need an apology from them." Samantha shook her head gently, indicating he didn’t have to go through with her first choice. She noticed the slight frown on Ivan’s eyebrows after that, followed by his downcast gaze, and when she assumed it had something to do with her change of decision, his gaze instinctively darted to the door, and a dark twisted smile curled his lips as he cocked his head slightly, his hold on her waist turning protective.
"They’re here." She heard him say quietly.
"Huh?" Samantha’s eyes followed Ivan’s to find him staring intensely at the closed double doors, and it wasn’t only her, everyone’s prying gaze had drifted to the double doors to see who exactly their Lordship was speaking to. Growing confused by Ivan’s sudden fixed gaze, Samantha’s lips parted, and she wanted to ask about who he was referring to when the gigantic doors suddenly creaked open, allowing an eerie hush to descend upon the room.
When everyone’s gaze moved to the door, Abdiel was the first to walk in, his footsteps silent on the tiled floor, and behind him were four powerful figures that emerged from the shadows, revealing themselves for everyone to see. Stifled gasps could be heard when the four vampire Lord’s, known as the higher-ups from Vesunard stepped in, their presence commanding attention and instilling fear upon the servants whose eyes nearly bulged out from their sockets.
"It’s them!" A particular whispered in terror.
