All Chapters of Once His Bully. Now His Whore: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The four split apart to reveal a male figure standing beyond them near the stablesMy brows furrowed. “Since when do you let anyone through the gates of my estate without proper clearance?”“He said h-he was an acquaintance,” the sentinel faltered, clearly regretting every life choice that led him to this moment.I looked past them to the figure. He was tall, dressed in ceremonial robes too lavish for a casual visit. The attire was stitched with precious metals and ceremonial embroidery, which reeked of nobility. Or at the very least, one of the high merchant houses.The businessmale in me perked up. Coin followed power, and this male practically dripped both. Perhaps letting him in was not such a poor decision after all.“Whom do I have before me?” I called as I walked toward him.But as I neared, two females emerged from behind the male. My eyes locked immediately on one of them.Short, slight in frame, and standing with a quiet but rigid pride. Green eyes that were wary and so damn

LORD REVANDREL“You do know what you succeeded in doing earlier was simply maximizing their suspicions of you, right?” Alaric reasoned in a mild voice.I huffed, pouring myself a goblet of wine before making my way to the open window. Leaning against the frame, I stared out into the night.It had been over half an hour since my confrontation with the Eldareths, and it was almost peaceful now. No more invaders, just guards patrolling and workers tending to their duties.“You have likely just secured the number one on their suspect list, if you were not there already.”I sipped. “They have no evidence. Therefore, they have nothing.”“I just feel you should have been more careful. Since Baevera is still useful to you, it might have served you better to throw them off instead of letting your anger get the better of you.”“You worry too much, Duke. I could not care less what the Eldareths think or do. It is no concern of mine.”“All I am saying is, if your goal is to use her to build a leg

LORD REVANDRELIt took me weeks to finally see the sense in Baevera’s offer.Far and wide, the name 'Vera with the snake ink' had spread like wildfire.Her value tripled on the market so much that a single hour with her now cost twenty gold coins.And that was without counting the rumors that she pocketed at least half of that in tips from each patron.Yet her nights were always fully booked.Naked Den had never thrived like this. It was exploding in the merchant market; its worth, shares, and influence climbing higher with each passing week.And Alaric had not been wrong.The Eldareths had me pegged as their chief suspect in Baevera's disappearance, and they were slowly bringing war to my doorstep.I had been summoned to the Bureau four times already. Four rounds of questioning in the past three weeks.Each session lasted hours, with the same damn questions twisted into new phrasing in hopes they would catch me slipping.It was both annoying and exhausting.Not that I minded crossing

Just like a succubus, my gag reflex disappeared entirely, my throat adjusted accordingly, and my mouth becomes velvety and sentient. But it also behaves almost alive, knowing exactly how to suck, exactly where to apply pressure, or ease off, and it constricted like a jealous serpent refusing to let dinner go.Just to explain a little, that is.“Hell on earth,” Lord Avantus groaned, voice heavy with bliss. “Feels so good, dearling, do not stop.”My eyes had not left Revandrel’s, neither had his left mine. But now, that blank detachment had turned into smothering fire.Seeing that impenetrable expression change because of me, shot a thrill to my spine. Much to my dismay.But not nearly enough to make me end whatever this silent war of stares had become.Still holding Avantus down my throat, I retracted my snakelike Succubus tongue and released my Urekai forked tongue. Then, flipped, flickered, and scissored it around his length, making him hiss and cuss. I never bobbed my head. Never pu

I averted my eyes. Helory always saw too much. It was her superpower, and my curse. “What you deserve is a second chance, Baevera Eldareth.” The fight drained from her voice, her fingers threading through my hair. “And I hope that one day, your stepbrother will see that too. I hope one day, you will learn to forgive yourself too.”My throat closed up. How could I ever? That was impossible.Still, I gave her a small, weak smile. “Thank you, Hills. But, let us not discuss it anymore. I have made the deal. Ten years is barely a drop in the passage of time. I can do this.” I sniffled. “I may not be free from him once I have paid this debt, but at least it would lessen some of the guilt I feel. The burden would lighten. That is more than enough for me.”She opened her mouth, but I pressed a finger to her lips.“Please?”She searched my eyes for a long moment. Then finally, she nodded. “Okay. Fine. I will stop talking about it now.”Wiping her tears, she gave me a watery smile.“Thank you.
