Marked By The Demon Triplet Alpha Kings

Damon

“She is strong now. The only concern is the scars. Meanwhile, I found something that we can use to make the scars fade. I will get the nurses to rub oil on her back.” The doctor explained, adjusting her boring glasses before balancing it on the bridge of her nose.

“Why won’t they heal on their own? And what kind of oil is it?” I inquired, throwing a concerned look at the scars that were marred on Aurora’s back.

“My King…” She cleared her throat before swallowing. “The scars you see are as a result of the whip she was flogged with. The whip cut deep into her skin and according to reports, she was flogged over 200 times before she passed out. The tip of the whip was coated with silver, the impact tore her skin each time it landed on it. Before you came to her rescue, she had already lost consciousness and she was bleeding for about…” She paused briefly before peeking at the book in her hand.

“Three hours. It’s a miracle that she wasn’t in a coma. And about the oil, it was specially made by me. You know, I’m good with herbs too and in the process of an experiment, the concoction I mixed mistakenly poured on my skin and faded my scar lightly. After repeating the process for a week, my scars are completely gone,” she beamed in excitement, allowing me to have a view of her smooth skin. The corners of her lips twitched in pride.

“Since it worked on me, it should work on her.”

My face darkened and my narrowed eyes glared at her. “It better work or else…” I threatened using my Alpha tone. The rest of my words were shoved down my stomach, making her process the consequences in her head.

Good thing she tested it first on herself.

I watched how her smile dropped and her face was covered in gloom.

I hated it when she tried to impress me. It made me more cruel to her. Or was it when she tried to be smart to get my attention?

Ugh!

She better find her mate and quit flirting with me.

“Here,” she said, dropping the small bottle of oil on the table with trembling hands. “The instructions are to rub on the affected area in the morning and at night. I will have the nurses give her a quick massage.” Her shaky voice gave her fear away.

Yes. Fear me.

“How many of them?” My thundering voice resounded, making her jump in fright.

I loved it when she was scared. It excited me.

“Just one of…them, my King. But other nurses will take turns massaging her.”

A frown sat on my face as I pondered on her words.

Other nurses meant male nurses.

That was never happening!

The only man allowed to touch Aurora was me.

“Save them the stress,” I replied, gritting my teeth as irritation washed over me.

Her eyes flashed in shock as they stared at me in disbelief. “But…my King…if that is it then I will…massage her back and cancel my next duty. You don’t have to stoop low to…” she stammered, struggling to string the most appropriate words.

My brows twitched, forming an arch and my face contorted into a deep scowl.

How dare she question me?!

“Get out!” I growled so loudly that she screamed, jumping in fear before scurrying out of the room like a scared puppy.

I don’t pay a huge amount of money for her to say shit to me.

“Was that necessary?” Aurora asked, scoffing afterwards. “You are so arrogant.”

I almost forgot she was present in the room.

“And she was disrespectful!” I fired as my breathing turned erratic.

“You have a bad temper. Work on it!” she added.

“Really? You should try…thank you for standing up for me,” I hissed.

I couldn’t believe she supported the doctor even after I defended her.

The doctor was right anyway. I shouldn’t stoop so low to massage her when other nurses could do so.

I was the King!

“But I didn’t ask you to stand up for me.” she blurted, causing a scowl to settle on my face as my chest rose and fell in anger.

“Excuse me? You are joking, right? ” I asked in disbelief.

Blinded by anger, the urge to leave her and never return filled me.

An ungrateful little bitch she was. Maybe I shouldn’t have locked Rosa up in her room for treating Aurora badly.

Maybe the bitch deserved the bad treatment after all.

I suddenly felt stupid for visiting her daily and showing her the soft side of me that no one ever saw.

“I’m not,” she said in anger before her silver eyes glistened in tears. “I’m your property anyway. I’m your slave. I belong to you forever and you can do whatever you want with me. You are the King.” Her head lowered in shame as she looked away from me.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“The doctor was right, you shouldn’t stain your hands dirty like me. Let the other nurses deal with it. I’m worthless.” She swallowed hard, tears running down her pale skin.

The anger I felt suddenly vanished as I was taken aback by her words. “What are you saying?”

“Face the truth, Damon! I’m worthless and shouldn’t be defended. Just let me live the rest of my miserable.” She broke down in tears, covering her face with her palms.

My heart broke at the sight. I hated to see her cry.

Without thinking twice, I pulled her into my arms, allowing her head to lay on my chest as I rocked her. Just the way she liked.

My palms patted her head gently and my finger played with her silky caramel hair.

I lifted her head slowly, allowing myself to get lost in the sea of her ocean eyes.

The light in the room reflected on her eyes, making them appear magical as they caused a warm glow.

Thick silence enveloped us as I stared deeply into her eyes speechless.

I didn’t know why I wasn’t mad after she called me without my title.

The taste of my name on her lips filled me with pleasure. I wanted to hear it again…but when she was moaning.

“For a couple of days, you’ve been coming around. It leaves me confused and sad knowing you’ll abandon me after playing with my emotions,” she paused, biting her bottom lip.

My breath hitched as the feeling of claiming her consumed me.

“Why are you even standing up for me? Why do you suddenly care?” she asked, making me feel uneasy.

How would I explain to her that I couldn’t take the thought of other men’s hands on her? And how would I explain the strange attraction I felt towards her?

What was wrong with me?!
