All Chapters of Married to a Demon : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

I opened my eyes slowly, unwilling to succumb the sweet dream I had been having. I realized it wasn't a dream, as I felt Lucian's arm around my waist, pressing my back against his chest. His legs entwined with mine under the sheets, his breath in my hair, fanning my neck. It hadn't been a dream. Lucian had made love to me last night in the most sensual, tender manner. I felt my cheeks heat and my body burn anew as I recalled the beautiful memories. It was an experience I had never had before and never thought I would have. Actually, I never thought such an experience could even exist. How could a single kiss make my head spin? A light touch burn my skin? My heart skipped a beat as I felt Lucian's arm tighten around my waist. "Lucian? Are you awake?" I whispered. "Hmm..." he said in a sleepy voice. Then it was quiet for a while. Had he gone back to sleep? Slowly, I turned around to face him. His eyes were closed but I knew he was half awake. Maybe he was tired and wanted to co

Lucian left saying he needed to take care of a few things and I just lay in my bed, daydreaming about him. I had Irene to thank for everything that happened. I wished she was here, I felt lonely without her.Was she alright? What if something really bad is happening to her in this moment and I am just laying here in my bed?“My Lady?”Startled I sat up and turned my head.“Irene!” I almost jumped out bed.She smiled.“Where were you? You made me worried.”She looked at me confused.“You were worried about me?” She asked.“Yes why not?”“I am just a maid My Lady?”“I…I thought we were friends.”Lord, I hated this. I knew that it never worked to be friends with a maid. I had already tried with Lydia and Ylva and they would always say the same ‘A Lady and a maid can never be friends’. They were right. I was naive to think that.How could they see me as a friend when they had to serve me all the time?“We are if that’s what you want, My lady?”I looked at her surprised and she gave me a s

Lucian lay facing the other side and I wondered if he was angry with me."Are you angry with me?" I asked."Why would I be?""I don't know" I whispered.He turned around facing me."I am not angry." He said his voice soft.If he wasn't angry, there was something else he wasn't telling me."Will you hold me then while we rest?"Without waiting he drew me into his arms and after a while, he fell asleep. I was very tired as well after being awake the whole night but I didn't want to sleep since Lucian would leave after we woke up I wanted to be awake and savor the feel of being in his arms. But I couldn't.I kept repeating Irene's words in my head and it made my stomach twist in fear. What if something happened to Lucian? What if he never came back? Maybe I should have convinced him to marry Klara."You haven't slept?" Lucian asked surprised when he woke up."I wasn't very tired." I lied to no avail."Hazel, you don't need to worry. I will come back safe." He assured me.Lucian's men gat

Klara made me wear dirty torn clothes, she put mud on my face and hair and tied my hands."If you look like a beggar no one will ever suspect you are a princess." She explained.I was angry at first. Was she making fun of me? But as we passed many guards and none of them even looked our way I guessed she was right. It must really have looked like I was a slave bought by her from the way she rode her horse and I was being dragged behind with my hands tied. I still hated her for this, but I had to admit she was smart and she was helping me.Once we passed the guarded place we stopped near a lake and she gave me something to eat. I had never been so hungry in my life before so I ate the sandwich quickly."What happened to your leg?""I really don't know. I think it's swollen from all the sitting and walking or maybe I wrenched it." I explained.She just nodded and looked away."Why did you save me?" I asked."I promised Lucian to protect you the way he would." She said, "Even though that

I woke up feeling sore. Sleeping on the floor wasn’t the most pleasant thing when you were used to sleeping on luxurious beds.Klara sat leaning against a tree with eyes closed. Was she asleep? It looked really uncomfortable to be sleeping that way. Yawning, I tried to get up but almost yelped as a sharp pain stabbed my leg. Sitting back down quickly I looked at my foot, it had swollen more.“What happened?” Klara was suddenly next to me.Grimacing in pain “My leg has gotten worse.” I said.She looked at it closely. “I think we need to take you to a doctor.”“Is that possible?” In the current situation, it would be difficult to find a doctor.She ran her fingers through her hair. I could see the confusion on her face.“We have to. You could lose your leg since we don’t know what caused the swelling.”She stood up and gave me her hand to help me up. Then she helped me walk to the horse.“We need to get to the city.” She said as she helped me climb the horse. “We might find a doctor the
