I could hear the birds chirping, even as it got dark, I was still in bed, my mood down, It's been a day since I awoke... I had expected Cedric would come, but yet again he didn't... I should be scared of him, I now knew why he was rendered dangerous by Cora, he was something I didn't understand and yet I longed to see him like my heart would break if I didn't. I must be going out of my mind, a normal woman would avoid such, or speak of it!

Stupid Sylvia! I cursed myself, I really WAS stupid.

The doors barge open as Olivia worked in with a smile against her lips.

"It's time for your bath, My lady"

I sighed.

☆☆☆

I watch as Olivia helped me untie the bandage around my ankle, I hissed slightly in pain.

"Does it still hurt my lady?" she asked worried,

"Just a little".

She completely took it off, observing it.

"It's still bruised but it's all healed, all thanks to Dr. Osbert, best in the Empire".

I have always been treated with the best things ever since I married to this house. I tried to move it but I only just winced in pain.

Olivia felt the bathwater.

"The doctor said warm water is what you need right now," she said pouring some hot water from a jar and feeling the temperature.

As she did I gently rise to my feet, making sure the linen white towel I had wrapped around my body was firm, I placed my good leg inside, before fully entering, the water reach me at my waistline.

I hissed when I felt a slight pain in my ankle.

"I will go get the lotion my lady"

I just gave a nod, biting my lip, I heard Olivia exit the bathhouse, I gently sat down, the milky water now reaching my chest level, I moaned feeling the warm water against my body, I loved the feel, it was like it massaged my body, I didn't mind staying here for long until my muscles felt loose.

I arranged my messy bun properly before I rubbed my arms, I continued the action as a way of messaging my body, I did it for what seemed like seconds, before pulling my knees to my chest, resting my chin on my knee cap.

I heard the door open, finally, she was back, I was beginning to wonder why she took some time.

"You took you some time, my ankle is killing me," I said rubbing it beneath the water. But then a scent filled my nose, I froze recognizing the fresh scent that instantly filled the area.

My heart slammed loudly against my chest, I pushed my back upright... it was Cedric and he was behind me.

I instantly rose to my feet, ignoring the pain that shock through my ankle, I turned and met with a half-naked Cedric, a linen white towel was wrapped around his waist so I needn't worry... but still I got the view of his chest, I knew I shouldn't be looking at it right now but I couldn't help myself, his broad chest... his abs were well defined, his torn muscles all for me to see, his silky pale skin only made it more alluring, I couldn't look away, it was like I was amid a sculpted god before me.

"Wife?"

I never knew how much I missed his voice until now, that feeling went straight to my core, I resist the urge to rub my knees together.

"What kind of a husband are you?" I snapped. I didn't intend for that but the words just came right out before I could process it, I was angry at him for not coming to see me.

He frown like he didn't expect me to say those words.

"I-It's been a day since I woke up and you didn't come to see me", the hurt now evident in my tone.

"If you do not care about me then say it"

"It's not..." he paused, his teeth clenching.

"Not what huh?"

"... It's not that I do not want to see you"

"What then!"

"Sylvia"

I gulped when he called my name, his eyes were filled with confusion, and uncertainty, I took in his look now, he looked paler than usual, his eyes like he hadn't slept... this was unlike Cedric, to be off guard, to look this way.

"If its about what happened that night then I do not want to talk about it"

"Fuck that!" he cursed.

I froze at his choice of words, his eyes on me, his looks in total confusion.

"You should be scared of me..." he began as he took a step closer.

"I'm not a perfectly handsome man like you think I'm" he came closer and closer but I didn't back away I didn't want to, I wanted him closer, my body ached for it.

"I may be the devil or worse", he was within the water with me, standing right in front of me, my head tilted backward to meet his burning gaze, the wonderful color of green I missed so much.

I gulped at his words.

"Are you scared of me Sylvia... you saw what I did to those Nightshades"

I was instantly filled with the memory, sounds of their screams, and bone breaking.

"I do not regret what I did... I didn't feel anything when I rip them apart, I didn't mind doing it again... and again"

What was he trying to do... was he trying to scare me, or was he trying to let me know how dangerous he could be, maybe both.

"I-I'm scared" I replied honestly.

"You should be scared"

"B-But I know you won't hurt me"

His eyes narrowed at my words. His hand slowly reach for me, I shivered when his thumb brushed my cheek, it was warm and felt good against my skin.

"How can you be so sure?" he asked softly, leaning now, our faces inches apart.

"I-I t-trust y-you" my heart slammed with every word.

"You do not know what you speak of"

"I-I trust you Cedric," I said once again but this time I added more meaning to it.

He growled burying his face in my neck, I gasped at the sudden action, my hands against his bare chest to steady myself.

"You have no idea how much hunger you make me feel"

Hunger? What kind of hunger?

"....How much I want to sink my fangs deeply in your neck"
