Semua Bab Slave or Lover?: Bab 81 - Bab 90

Cody lies down and looks at me, waiting for me to lie down too. I hesitate. I do not have the strength to walk back to my room since I am painful now and I am suffering from fever. Moreover, I do not really want to go back to my room. Cody and I had a really good time just now and my body is desiring for more warmth. So after hesitating for a while, I lie down and pretend to be natural. Cody smiles and pulls the soft and fluffy blanket over me. Then he starts unbuckling his belt and takes off his pants. I tense up immediately. Does he want to do something to me? Actually, I am not against his touching now, but I am in pain. I do not think I will enjoy sex at the moment. Seeing me amazed, he says, “ Usually I sleep naked, so you should thank me since I still keep my boxers on.” I can hear the definite smirk in his voice. I think, “Why should I thank him?” Although I have stopped myself from saying my thoughts out loud, I still feel embarrassed

I lean against Cody’s chest and completely lose my balance. I look up at Cody and says, “ Do not be angry. Cody, I do not want you to hurt anyone for me.” Cozy frowns and growls at me, “ You scramble for a stranger?” I am about to say yes when I suddenly remember what Lily said to Cody to calm him down. I show resourcefulness in an emergency. “ No, I scrambled for you. You are my master and the future alpha. I do not want others to blame you for your cruelty and bad temper.” Cody’s eyes change when he hears my words. He thinks for a while and growl, “Ann, you can leave now.”  Then he picks me up in his arms and sits back onto the bed. Till now do I notice that he is actually bleeding. I gasp and say, “ Cody, you are bleeding. Your back, your shirt, is red.” Cody stares at me calmly. “I should not have left the bed and used strength.” “Then why did you leave the bed?”

I am finally healthy enough to get out of bed. Most of my wounds are not painful now. All I need to do is to use some creams every day to reduce the ugly scars. When I finally have the chance to have lunch in the dining room, I see Maren talking to Sally. I have not seen Maren for a very long time and I almost forget her name. I go to greet Maren and Sally. “Maren, Sally, how are you? Long time no see.” Sally glances at me coldly and says nothing, while Maren looks up at me and answers coldly, “Fine.” I am really confused. Sally is cold but I do not care because she saved me last time. She is cold may be because of her character but why does Maren treat me this way? I have not blamed her for not visiting me when I was sick in bed. She must know that I was seriously injured but she has not visited me once.  I do not want to make this more embarrassing so I sit beside Maren and try to raise a topic, “Are you getting along well with y

All of a sudden, I hear steps behind me. I turn around and see Cody walking towards me bringing me out of all my thoughts. I see Cody staring at me and frowning at me as well. Then I realize the tears that are in my eyes have slipped out and are streaming down my face. He takes my hand in his and gently pulls me towards himself before turning towards Sally and nods to respond to her greeting. “Mr. Stark.” I wipe my tears away which makes Cody frown even more.  Sally’s POV  I was talking to Emelia, Cody’s human slave, in the corridor when I suddenly notice that Cody is getting close to us. I look up at Cody and see him staring intently at Emelia with concern plastered across his face. I am really surprised. He actually feel concerned? For a human slave? To say I am shocked will be a great understatement. Then for a fleeting second, I see an emotion that I have never seen or imagined that Cody could express. The emoti

Betty’s POVAfter being framed by Emelia, I have to stay in bed all the time because of the pain through my body. I was severely punished after Emelia and her adulterer, Alger left. I wonder why there are so many men like Emelia. She is a total bitch. I wonder if Cody knows that Alger has a relationship with Emelia, will he kill Emelia? When thinking of Emelia being killed, I laugh so hard that my stomach hurt badly. I cover my stomach and begin to cry. Why am I suffering this?  “Betty, are you OK?” I raise my head and see Bruce walking over to me. He is staring at me worriedly. He takes my hand in his hands and gently wipes my tears away. I look up at Bruce and notice the concern plastered across his face. Is he insane? In prison, I have cursed him like that. How can he worry about me as before? “Are you OK? Is there anything wrong? Tell me please. I will call the nurse for you.” I want to turn around and ignore him but he ke
