The Bored Immortal

Chapter 430 You Will Be My Eternal Slave

“AH!” Ara fell to the floor with a cry, not expecting Mevron to really slap her. He had never acted rude or showed any disrespect all these years but now…the fact that he slapped her hurt her more than the slap itself.

He even called her a whore, which was the most humiliating insult someone of her status could hear.

She covered her reddened cheek as she looked at him with an aggrieved look, as if she did not deserve such a slap after everything she had done for him. She had done so much things for him and even sometimes got her own hands dirty for his sake. How could he not even hear what she had to say?

“You dare look at me like that? As if I wronged you?!” Mevron sarcastically asked as his large figure towered before her, “Did you know why I always trusted you with things and hid little to no secrets with you? Did you know why I even told you about the secret passage in this room?”

Ara’s eyes blinked rapidly as she wondered what he was trying to say. She thought he really loved and trusted her to keep no secrets between them, and what does the secret passage have to do with all this?

Mevron gnashed his teeth as he said, “Did you know that the wives of people of great power and status like me are the ones who tend to betray the most. Women like you are always greedy…greedy for more…more than what you can even take. I didn’t want to believe that, obviously, but something inside me told me to at least keep an eye out instead of being an oblivious fool if the worst were to happen. So while I did tell you almost everything, I also kept an eye on you always…And when I mean always, I meant even the things you do in our room whenever I am not here. All with the help of a small recording artifact.”

Ara’s expression immediately lost half of its color as she realized that Mevron had been spying on her for all these years whenever he was not with her. No wonder she found it a bit strange at first that a meticulous and ruthless man like him would trust her so easily.

But this also meant that he clearly saw some other man press her down on the bed where Mevron and she sleep.

When a Winter Dragon’s wife sleeps with some other man, especially on the bed where he sleeps, it was no different than having his face stomped on by that very same man and the wife.

And when caught, both the adulterers would have their bodies slowly broken down to dust by hanging them in the coldest region of the Darkstar Realm…a place where even the Winter Dragons wouldn’t spend too much time there except for the Winter Dragon King.

Ara clearly knew about this punishment, and that was why even if she had a slight whisper in her mind telling her to sleep with someone who caught her eye, she would instantly whiff out that thought.

She valued her life and her current status more than satisfying her sexual desires.

But she was devastated to learn that despite all her efforts to stay loyal and loving to him, he was spying on her the entire time. How could he be so insensitive to his own wife?

Still, Ara knew she was in no position to act like he hurt her feelings and said with a pleading face, “Dear, please…I never betrayed you willingly. That lowlife was the one who tricked me…He disguised himself as you…I thought it was really you the entire time…Please! You got to believe me! You must have seen the recording yourself,” Ara begged as she grabbed his legs.

Mevron grabbed her hair as he pulled her up, and with a harsh squint, he said, “Oh, I did see everything I needed to see, including the fact that you really wanted to get close to that rabbitman. But what sealed your fate was that you gave up the Fruit of Youth just like that. Do you know how much I sacrificed?!!” Mevron bellowed as he tugged at her hair, making her grimace.

“My own plan to trust you backfired on me. Your time as my wife is already up.”

“No, no! Wait! Narin will bring back the fruit anytime now. Please believe me!” Ara didn’t want to die a horrible death and tried to reassure Mevron that she had everything under control.

Mevron’s expression twisted even more in scorn as he clutched her neck, “Your useless Narin has already been found dead right outside the passage. It seems like you let a wolf trick you like a child. How pathetic.”

“No way….” Ara had a look of disbelief since Narin was no pushover, especially when she went all out. She was sure that Azu was just a human being using some tricks to disguise himself but had no power of his own. She never felt any such aura from him.

“I knew there was something off about him the moment I saw him, but because of…” Mevron didn’t finish his sentence about getting distracted because of that woman.

“Forget it. But don’t worry, I won’t kill you,” Mevron said as he released Ara’s neck and caressed her face, making her feel relieved, thinking that maybe Mevron might have some soft spot for her indeed.

“But you are going to be my eternal slave, and each and every action you do would require my permission,” Mevron said with an unnerving smile, making Ara feel as if death seemed like a merciful option compared to what he had in store for her.

*Knock*

“Come in!”

The door opened as Orgaz came in and bowed respectfully.

Mevron curved his lips as he said, “Make sure you won’t fail. I will definitely get what’s mine back before this day ends…no matter what it takes.”
