Fifty Shades Of Blue

I was trembling while following his orders. I had a bad experience by defying Kruz, I was not going to repeat my mistake. I walked all the way in front of the bed and stood with my body touched down due to the pain in my stomach.

The TV was playing behind my back when he lifted his arm to switch it off with the remote controller.

Now that he was busy taking the food tray to the side, I noticed he was in black jeans and a black buttoned shirt, whose upper buttons were all left open.

"Take out the tray," I heard him talking to his maid on the phone and then hanging up. In a matter of a few seconds, a maid joined us and grabbed the tray out of the room.

"Cornelia?" He was still not looking at me, Conrad got up from his bed and went inside his bathroom to wash his hands.

"Cordelia Gabriel!" I mumbled, slowly raising my face to see if he could even listen to me from that far. The moment he got out of the bathroom and appeared in my sight again, I hurriedly lowered my face once again.

"Ah?" I was right, he didn't hear me because he made me say it again.

"Cordelia Gabriel!" I repeated again. My body was hurting and him living his life to the fullest was not helping me at all.

He had just devoured the most delicious-smelling food and now he would rest in his comfortable bed.

"Cordelia!" Instead of sitting in his bed or standing in front of my face, he walked all the way to the back and postured behind me.

Knowing he was behind me made my body shudder uncontrollably. I was constantly trying to move my eyes to the side so that I could get a glimpse of his actions or motives through my peripheral vision.

"What happened to you?" his utterance coming from behind me, made me squeeze myself together. I was about to bite my lower lip when I recalled the bruises that would cut open to bleed once again.

His footsteps marched away for a moment and when they picked up my ears again, I felt something warm covering my body.

He left something over my shoulders.

"Wear it!" he said before coming in front of me. I steadily cocked my face to my shoulder and noticed that he had wrapped his leather jacket around me.

I pulled my hands in the sleeves and immediately covered myself. His jacket smelt amazing, very intoxicating, warm and very large on me. He was extremely tall and broad, obviously, his jacket was too big for me.

"Can I-----ask som---ething?" I kept my eyes lowered and my arms tied around my stomach, hoping that would help the pain to ease up.

"If you have anything to ask, you can!" he bent down to my level and whispered in his mouth.

I don't know why he gave me his jacket or why he was being nice to me because I have not heard too many good things about him either.

"If I apologize nicely, wou---ld I be spared?" I don't know what I was thinking, but my lips whimpered in whispers. I bet he could tell from how careful I was that I did not want to die, I wanted to live and someday get my happy ending and live a normal life.

"What?" He suddenly let out a loud laugh and shook his face, "no matter what you say in your apology, you are dying, honey!" The taunting tone of his made me lift up my eyes and stare at him.

It was so easy for them to laugh at somebody's last breaths, I wondered if they ever even felt the pain of others.

He walked away from me and when appeared in front of me again, he had a cotton bud in his fingers.

"You must have pissed someone off real bad," he bent down to my face's level and gently tapped the bud over my lip.

I was confused at his actions, was he really nice or was he preparing me for a torture. The fact that his beta had given me all these bruises and now the alpha himself was taking care of my wounds had me go crazy.

"So, what exactly were you planning on doing once you get your magic?" He was whispering on my face, his eyes almost drowning in my eyes and his face merely an inch away from mine while he kept cleaning the blood from my lips. I was able to look at the blue in his eyes even clearly now, there were so many shades of blue that it was hard to pick which one was shining brighter than the other.

“My coven wanted freedom!” I said in a fainted tone, the blue in his eyes seemed deceptive, more like a cunning fox using manipulation to fool me.

“Oh! You were going to save them?” I found him scanning my face, not with lust but interest, that’s when I accidentally made eye contact with him and swiftly looked down to nod my head.

“But why didn’t they save you, little witch?” He was speaking in such a soft low murmur that my body was feeling a weird comfort in his presence even though I knew he was manipulating me.

"You know what?" He suddenly pulled back from me and dropped the bud on the beautiful furnished floor, "Let’s play a game." he said, making me watch his face in concern.

I did not like the sound of it. Whatever he was planning didn't seem like something very nice.

"I'll leave you free in the woods, completely free." He announced and my heart immediately felt a wave of relief.

"And if you are able to find a way out before I catch you, you are free to go back to your family. You are free of the punishment," he smirked through his eyes at his cruel way of raising my hopes and breaking them again.

"But I can't outrun you," I declared without hesitation. Not only was I brutally injured but he was an Alpha and without my magic, I was only a wounded human.

"You didn't think of it before," he sounded surprisingly happy with my statement, "But let's do it. It will be fun." He continued to run with his idea, which didn't sound real to me.

I was going to outrun this alpha, who had just consumed a hot meal and why I got beaten up by his guard in the dungeon.

I don’t think refusing to play this game was even an option for me, he had already declared the game and I bet he was going to make the rules.

"Kruz!" Conrad walked to the door and yelled, peeping his head out to Kruz. Hearing his name immediately covered my entire skin in goosebumps. I was thrown back in that dungeon where he had a**aulted me mercilessly. Thankfully, his jacket was able to cover my body and the zipper up, I even felt a little warm.

"Kruz, come over here." He sounded weird, it was like he thought of it as an entertainment. Is that what Brenda meant when she said he wasn't in a good mood? Because it seemed like he was trying to get his frustration out on me.

I didn't turn my face to look at Kruz, who had entered the room after Conrad's commands. My body began to quiver in Kruz's presence. The way he beat me up back in the dungeon, I could tell he had no soul in his body.

No wonder he was Conrad's right hand, someone who would willingly do anything to please the Prince.

“I have just come up with a game,” Conrad announced, making me drown my face in fright even more.

"What kind of game your highness?" Kruz asked, slowly strolling in front of me.

I bet he liked the scars he had left on my face and my body. He seemed proud of himself and his cruel ways. What’s messed up was that the torture was going to get worse from here.

“That’s interesting, don’t you think we should make this game even interesting by making her run naked? How about we make her take off her clothes and then run in the woods and if she fails, then she knows what happens when you are naked and alone,” Kruz’s words made me flinch in disgust and bite my lower lip despite how bad It hurt.

“Kruz!” suddenly Conrad spoke in a much serious tone, “This is a game for her freedom, her life, not for her ----,” Conrad took a pause to lower his eyes, “Body!” he hurriedly finished and then regained his posture again.

I noticed that Kruz wasn’t happy to hear Conrad dismissing his brilliant idea. It also gave me a slight relief that Conrad had some boundaries, or maybe he wasn’t annoyed enough to cross those limits yet.
