Hollowed by Hatred Chapter 8
The carriage slowly swayed in the night. My soul floated in the air as I watched the people in black carry me into the carriage. For a second, I could not tell if this was a dream or reality. Finally, my abductor took off their mask. It was the doctor, Nicole.She hugged me tight, her voice choked but filled with relief. “You had it rough, Michael.”The next second, I felt an intense pain erupting through my heart. It was as though someone ripped something open in me and then connected it again.I gasped and opened my eyes abruptly.The wooden carriage was real, Nicole’s hand was warm, and even the faint smell of medicine wafting from her was not a dream.I stared at her blankly, my lips barely moving. “I’m… alive.”Nicole’s eyes were red, but she smiled. She tucked the cloak around me, her voice tinged with guilt. “It’s all my fault. I didn’t tell you in advance because I was worried you would let it slip.”She told me that two days before I was brought home, she happened to

I floated in mid-air, looking at her with a bitterness beyond words. In my five years at the camp, Dr. Nicole John was the only one who looked at me as a human being. However, she only ever appeared when I was on my deathbed.She looked at my body sorrowfully, unable to speak for a while. Finally, she took a stack of prescriptions and threw them to the floor. “I was Michael's doctor at the camp. Here are all his injury records.”She glared at the soldiers coldly. “You say he seduced you. So tell me, if it really was consensual, why would he be so grievously injured every time? “If he had come onto you, why did you tie him up? Why did you brand him? All those wounds prove he was assaulted!”The hall fell silent at her words. Nicole sobbed and then wept openly. “And… you didn't know… he contracted so many diseases because of you! The treatment every time was torture!”“What?!” Charlotte jumped to her feet, trembling. “What did you say?!”She turned, drew her sword, and pointed

Charlotte smacked him aside. Ethan coughed and then sobbed. “I’ll tell you everything, but it wasn't me! I didn't do it! “ When I visited him last night, he was still alive and well! He even threatened to kill me for taking what's his! He must have incurred these wounds when he escaped! “I-I would never hurt him!”After my sister took a closer look at my wounds, though, her voice was cold as ice. “These wounds look old, and their positions…”Her voice became even softer. “Michael was struck in all the places that would hurt the most yet wouldn't be lethal… “What on earth… did he go through in that camp?”Charlotte's body was racked with tears. “But I specifically ordered the soldiers to take care of him! At the most, he was meant to do some heavy lifting! What on earth happened?!”My soul shook. Heavy lifting? Those men said the princess told them to teach me a lesson I would not forget. Charlotte stood up, her voice cold. “Guards! Go and bring me every soldier from that

“Master Michael is dead! The body is in the woods!”Those words triggered an uproar among the crowd. Charlotte ran toward the woods without a moment's hesitation. “No! It can't be! Michael is just throwing a tantrum at me… He can't be dead… He's still waiting for me to take him home…”When she saw my body, haphazardly buried in the soil, she froze up. “Michael…”She got on her knees and dug me out with trembling hands. “Don't scare me, Michael… Wake up, I was wrong… I'm so sorry…”She hugged my cold corpse tightly and wailed. “I just wanted to make you a better husband! “I thought five years was enough… I thought you would understand… But why… Why didn't you wait for me a while longer…?”My father and sister reached the scene, too. When my father saw my body, his legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground. “Michael… My son…“You survived five years! Why couldn't you wait another two days? I just wanted to temper your ruthlessness a bit… so that you wouldn't get in troubl

I saw her rush into the room, stumbling before the cold dusty boxes. “What's with all this blood on the floor? Where's Michael?!”My father was also stunned to find the room empty. “That's impossible… Michael was in here the whole time…”Charlotte touched the blood on the floor, trembling. “He was so badly hurt, and you all didn't know?”Only then did my father see the blood, his eyes widening in disbelief. “Hurt? That can't be! I told the servants to take care of him! How come no one knew he was bleeding? “I thought he would repent after two days here, but…”My sister swayed on her feet, suddenly stuttering as well. “So much blood… It must have really hurt… Why didn't he tell me?”She grabbed a maid abruptly, her voice rough. “Where's Master Michael? What are you waiting for? Go look for him!”Where were they supposed to find me? Ethan had thrown my body into the woods days ago. I still remembered his vicious words. “See, so what if you came back? No one cares about you! “

Ethan immediately approached and comforted her. “Don't be mad, Princess. It's not good for you.”He then looked at me, his expression concerned but his eyes smug. “Michael, everyone in the capital knows you were deeply in love with the Princess. Did you sully yourself to get back at her?!”I loved her? How would I dare? Because I used to love her, I rejected my father's suggestion to give her hand in marriage to Ethan instead. As a result, she punished me by sending me to that camp for five whole years. I did not dare to love her anymore. Now, I was merely afraid. Afraid that they would send me back. The thought filled my head with nothing but terror. I hastily bowed at Charlotte’s feet. “Don't worry, I won't catch that disease anymore! The doctor said it's treatable!”I desperately crawled across the floor to pick up the bottle of liquor, pouring it over my open wounds. “I did this plenty of times before. It got better every time… “I'll take care of it… I'll clean myself
