Chapter 762 - Pet Feeding Manual (2) (1/2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Sonia wrapped her arms around and shivered in the chilly winter. The entire cell was quiet, cold, and dark without heating facilities like a fireplace. Not only that, but the damp moisture in the cell was also unbearable. Sonia was still wearing the clothes that she wore in the chariot and the wet clothes stuck on her skin. She cowered in the corner and was no longer as high-spirited as before.
How long has it been?
She looked up blankly, but the cell was in total darkness. She could vaguely see the flickering flames through the gap below the door, but people were completely numb to time in this place. Not only did she feel cold, but she was also famished. After the young lady named Nell left, Sonia felt as though she had been forgotten by others. No one visited, spoke, or delivered food to her. The endless darkness, silence, and coldness were her only companions.
There were a few times when Sonia felt like she had been completely defeated. But she gritted her teeth whenever she recalled Rhode’s annoying face and pulled herself together.
That’s right. I can’t back down. I can’t admit defeat. That man is gonna use shameful ways to make me surrender. He won’t get away with it!
Thud… Thud…
At this moment, footsteps broke the silence and Sonia tensed immediately. She widened her eyes at the steel door and bit her lips tightly. Then, she straightened her posture proudly and stood up. She definitely couldn’t reveal such a miserable sight to her enemies.
The footsteps became louder and a shadow emerged before her cell door.
Kacha.
The door opened and a slender figure clad in a robe emerged.
“Please follow me, Miss Sonia. Master wants to see you.”
The voice was cold and plain. Sonia let out a snort.
“What if I refuse?”
“Master said that he doesn’t like women who waste his time. If you refuse, he will kill your knights—one every 10 minutes. If you don’t turn up, he will kill them all and feed them to the dogs.”
“… Despicable!”
Sonia sulked, clenched her fists, and glared at the person. However, the latter didn’t respond and simply turned aside to make way for Sonia with an inviting gesture. Sonia bit her teeth. She knew that the man was threatening her, but it was clear that he was capable of doing so. She took in a deep breath and stepped out of the cell with her chest stuck out.
Sonia thought that she would be led out of the underground prison, but she was entirely wrong. They passed through pitch-black tunnels, went down a flight of stairs, and turned a few corners. Sonia didn’t know if they were heading up or down. After a few moments, they reached the end of a corridor where a heavy steel door stood before them. The young lady who led the way pushed it open gently. The door creaked and a dazzling radiance shone from within. As the door opened halfway, the young lady beckoned to Sonia.
“Please come in.”
“…”
Sonia hesitated and couldn’t see what was happening behind the heavy steel door. However, she instinctively felt that something bad was awaiting her. But since she was already here, how could she back down? No, she couldn’t! No matter what that shameless man wanted to do with her, she would never surrender!
Sonia lifted her head and tidied her clothes. Then, she stepped into the room nonchalantly.
Warm air blew in her face.
It wasn’t a terrifying torture room that she imagined. Instead, it was a strangely luxurious, warm, and comfortable-looking room. Not only did the fireplace chase the harsh cold away, but it also provided warmth and illuminated the room with signs of life. Sonia saw huge sofas, delicate wooden tables and drawers, and a large silk bed. If it weren’t for the manacles and fetters hanging on the walls, Sonia would have believed that this was an luxuriously decorated guest room.
Is this prepared for me? Is that man trying to rope me in with this method?
The warm air in this harsh weather made her comfortable. Then, she detected a shadow from the corner of her eye and Rhode emerged before her.
Rhode presented a smile, but this made her even more nervous. She instinctively sensed that even though Rhode was smiling, he actually wasn’t delighted at all. The temperature also dropped drastically.
“Good, Miss Sonia. I’m glad that you arrived on time.”
Rhode approached her while she instinctively backed off. But, shortly after, she realized that her behavior was shameful. She let out a snort and lifted her head proudly.
“What’s there to be glad about? If it weren’t for your threats, do you think I’d be willing to come here? You’re a despicable man who bullies women, Mr. Rhode. I never expected you to be this shameless!”
“Thanks for the compliments, Miss. Sonia.”
Rhode’s smile widened into a grin.
“I don’t think that what I’m doing is wrong. But, Miss Sonia, you’re in the wrong for saying one thing and doing another. Why don’t you admit it?”
“What… What did you say?”
Sonia knitted her brows while Rhode maintained his smile.
“It’s simple. You can say that I threatened you, Miss Sonia, but you should be sick of living in that chilly, damp cell too, right? Could it be that you don’t intend to come out of it?”
“You…!”
Sonia’s blood boiled because Rhode’s words were as though sharp daggers that pierced her truest thoughts. But shortly after, she regained her ice-cold expression.
“Rubbish. You can say whatever you want since anything that I say is useless. But don’t you ever think that everyone will harbor such filthy thoughts like you! If it weren’t for your threats, why would I obey your orders? I would rather freeze to death in the cell and not let you manipulate me!”
Rhode twitched his brows.
“It seems like wild animals aren’t easy to tame. To think that it disobeys its master… But, whatever. I have all the time I need to teach you the right attitude a pet should have toward its master.”
Rhode swung his right arm out of a sudden.
A shadow flitted across and an immense shock wave struck Sonia. She flew back and crashed into the wall behind her. But before she returned to her senses, the manacles and fetters moved on their own and locked her wrists and ankles, raising her arms above her. She glared in terror at the young man strolling toward her with a pitch-black whip.
“What… What are you trying to do!?”
“I’ve said it. To teach the right attitude that a pet should have toward its master.”
Rhode strolled toward her, extended his arm, and held her collar. Then, Sonia seemed to understand what Rhode was trying to do. This was the first time she revealed such horror in her eyes.
“What are you trying to do? You can’t. You can’t…”
Rhode lashed.
Ssss—!
Sonia’s coat was instantly ripped apart and tossed to the fireplace. Only a thin undershirt was left covering her delicate body.
In the radiant flames, Sonia’s silk undershirt reflected a gentle luster and accentuated her well-rounded chest. She shivered—her spotlessly white lace panties and sling stockings that wrapped her voluptuous figure let off a pure, gentle charm.
“…”
Sonia gritted her teeth and turned away from Rhode. No matter how determined she was, she was a young lady, after all. Her precious body that was reserved for her beloved man had been seen entirely by a shameless scum. If it weren’t for her stubbornness and arrogance, perhaps she would have cried her eyes out.
“Hmm… Your body isn’t bad.”
Rhode scrutinized from her head to toes as though selecting a slave from the black market. He caressed her hair and skin. Sonia shivered instinctively, but where could she hide?
“You’re a wealthy young lady indeed. You’ve maintained your skin so well that it’s soft to the touch. Your hair is silky smooth too.”
After a few moments Rhode retracted his hand and his comments were as though a merchant evaluating his goods. Sonia had never been so insulted all her life. She was neither an object nor animal! But shortly after, she felt a wave of tremendous pain.
Smack!
Sonia shrieked instinctively as a glaring, scarlet mark emerged across her tender chest. The thin undershirt had been ripped apart and exposed her soft, dewy skin.Read more chapter on vipnovel.com
