3 Forced Marriage (1/2)

The crowd cheered!”Daethix-Daethix-Daethix!”

The princess smiled and waved at the adoring audience, whose cheers became louder! Then she turned toward the small group of lamias standing behind the guards.”Who wishes to bond this human?” Daethix asked while pointing at Koji.

Two lamias entered the ring.Daethix recognized the younger one as Zelea Sagosia, her adopted sister and the Fourth Princess of Nephosia.The other lamia was Ashisha Phrixelise, who suffered a poor reputation for keeping a male harem without bonding any of them.Additionally, the servants of her household revealed that Ashisha enjoyed deviant sexplay with her harem involving rope, gag, chain, and whip.

Princess Daethix frowned.”Ashisha, you already claimed four men from the Arena.Why do you want this boy when you don't bond him anyway?Isn't that a waste of a talented Bonder?” she asked.

Ashisha stared with open lust at the unconscious teenager.”He's young and willful.I relish the opportunity to break his spirit and add him to my harem,” she answered with a wicked smile.Ashisha's snake tongue flickered and wet her full lips.

”What about you, little sister?Why do you want him?” Daethix asked.

”I admire his spirit.He is strong, young and handsome.I wouldn't mind marrying him and making him my Bonder,” Zelea blushed, earning catcalls from the seats.

The older sister was surprised by this answer because her childhood friend never expressed interest in a man before.Daethix decided to let Zelea have the deathmatch winner.But how should she satisfy the other lamia?She remembered Koji defying her command to kill another combatant.”There is still another human alive in this ring,” the princess noted while pointing at the older man on the ground.”Ashisha, if you agree to let Zelea have the boy, you can take the other one,” Princess Daethix proposed.

Ashisha turned her head toward the other fighter.”He's not bad, either,” she admitted grudgingly.”Very well.Zelea can have the boy, and I'll take the man,” she conceded.”But you two owe me a favor,” Ashisha demanded.

Daethix nodded while Zelea bowed deeply.Both were glad to make this horse trade and turn Koji into Zelea's official Bonder.Besides, his talent was undeniable, and both lamias felt that Koji would make an excellent addition to the Royal Family.

Zelea approached the willful human to check his physical condition.Thankfully, her sister didn't drop him as hard as Zelea thought.But he did suffer head trauma.The lamia gently rubbed a healing salve on Koji's head.Then she held him in a princess carry and slithered out of the ring.

”Good luck!” the audience cheered and clapped as she exited the Arena.

Zelea hailed a carriage on the street to take them home.”Please go to Wuu Men Street.”

The owner turned around.”Are you certain you wish to go there?” the old man asked with disbelief.Wuu Men Street was in a lawless section of the city and dominated by ruthless gangsters; they especially hate lamias.Why would she go there?Was this lamia courting death?

Zelea smiled at the driver; she knew what he was thinking.”I live there,” she explained.

”Oh!”A look of astonishment crossed his face.She must have her reasons to be there.And this was none of his business.The old man bowed to her.”I'm sorry, miss.I will take you there right away!” he promised.He sat in the driver's seat and flicked on the reins; his two horses started pulling the carriage.

As the vehicle moved, Zelea looked at the young man seated next to her.His sleeping, handsome face hid his arrogance and superb fighting skills.If she didn't witness his deathmatch with her eyes, Zelea would not believe this man was a ruthless killer.

However, Zelea couldn't understand why he chose to spare the last combatant's life.If he had obeyed the third princess, then Big Sister Daethix might have chosen to bond with him.Instead, he defied her and made Daethix lose face!The lamia shook her head at his stubbornness.

There was another mystery she noted.With her keen eyes as befitting the daughter of the deceased royal hunter, Zelea noticed that the young fighter changed the trajectory of his fist at the last instant.By dropping his fist, the young man avoided destroying his opponent's Lower Dantian.Zelea hoped Koji would enlighten her on this matter and why he chose to be merciful to his opponent in the arena.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped moving.Soon, the door opened.”We're here, miss,” the driver said politely.

Zelea paid the man for the carriage ride.She took her future Bonder in a princess carry again and slithered along Wuu Men Street.The lamia immediately felt eyes on her, but no one sought to intercede and stop her.

Zelea stopped in front of The Wicked Monkey Inn and entered the building.

The innkeeper immediately approached.”Is he staying with you?” the greedy old man asked.He had a chubby face and whiskers on his fat chin; his aura felt wicked to Zelea.

”Yes, I intend to bond him,” the lamia answered honestly.

The innkeeper's eyes widened in surprise.He quickly regained his composure and coughed once into his fist.”Ahem.I see.Should I ask for Old Healer Mazea?” he offered.

Zelea nodded.”Please do.”The lamia slowly slithered up the stairs.Once she reached the second floor, she unlocked the door to her guest room and entered with her burden.

The lamia quickly stripped Koji's clothing.Then Zelea shackled his limbs to the bedposts.Zelea stared at his naked body; it looked strong and healthy.From his physique, Zelea could tell that he already possessed some levels in Body Refinement.

Unfortunately, the lamia could not start the Bonder Ritual until the healer arrives.Zelea paced back and forth in the room until she heard a knock on the door.The lamia answered and allowed the healer to enter her room.

Old Healer Mazea was a petite human with a degenerated hip; she ambled with great difficulty.However, her skills as a healer were legendary, and Mazea was considered a distinguished resident of Wuu Men Street.None of the gangsters dared to mess with her.Her sharp eyes swept across Koji from head to toe.She was extremely impressed by him.”You made a fine catch,” Mazea chuckled.

Zelea looked down and blushed.

The healer clapped her hands.”Let's begin the ritual,” she said softly.

The lamia lit a special incense and placed it in an incense holder on the table.She waited until the room filled with an intense smell of the fragrance of a sea breeze.She climbed the bed, which was specially built to support the weight of a lamia.

Zelea licked Koji's abdomen with her snake tongue.Her saliva possessed a small degree of numbing property.Suddenly, she sank her fang into the belly and broke his Lower Dantian!
