Enslaved By The Ruthless Vampire Lord: Her Second Chance Mate

Just as Walter’s hand was about to collide with Naya’s face, a sudden gust of wind blew across the store. It seemed to come from nowhere, and it carried with it a chill that made the hair on the back of everyone’s necks stand on end.

Walter froze, his hand still raised mid-strike. Sophia took a step back, her eyes wide with fear. And Naya, well, she couldn’t help but smile.

“What is this?” Walter stammered, his voice suddenly weak.

“Tsk, tsk, I had no idea there was a show going on here?” Rhys said with a bored tone as he walked in slowly, swirling the lighter in his hand.

He only went out for a smoke and arrived just when Walter was about to hit Naya.

Thank his stars that he did not lay his hands on her but he was going to pay for having the thought to lay his hands on Naya.

Rhys took a long drag from his cigarette, letting the smoke curl around his face before he exhaled, his eyes never leaving Walter’s face. The tension in the room was palpable, the air practically crackling with electricity.

Sophia, her eyes darting back and forth between Walter, Naya, and Rhys, stumbled over her words.

“Lord Rhys…you…”

Rhys raised a hand, cutting her off.

“Save your words, darling..” Rhys muttered as he stood beside Naya, who met his gaze.

Where the fuck were you!!! She wanted to yell at him, but she held back her tongue.

“Thank God you’re here, lord Rhys..” Walter breathed out in relief.

“This insolent woman was causing trouble..” he reported Naya as he eyed her.

“Insolent?” Rhys pursed his lips as he raised a brow at Walter.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Yes, my lord..” Walter confirmed, unaware of the fact that Naya and Rhys were together and that he was in deep trouble.

Rhys blew out a stream of smoke, his eyes never leaving Walter’s face.

“And what exactly were you planning on doing about it?” he asked, gesturing towards the raised hand still frozen in the air.

Walter’s mouth opened and closed like a goldfish, no words coming out. Sophia, sensing that things were about to go very badly for them, tried to intervene.

“It was all just a misunderstanding, Rhys, really. She was being very rude…”

“Uhh, lord Rhys..” Sophia chuckled pushing Walter aside as she stepped forward.

She arranged her hair showing her jawline as she smiled sheepishly in front of Rhys.

Naya could only roll her eyes at her, she came with her boyfriend but now she’s trying to seduce Rhys, why? Because he’s handsome as hell?

What a hypocrite.

Rhys’ eyes didn’t even flicker as Sophia tried to work her charm on him, his expression remaining as impassive as ever. It seemed like he was used to women throwing themselves at him, and wasn’t impressed by Sophia’s antics.

“Yes, Sophia?” he asked, his tone cool.

Sophia, catching the tone, faltered for a moment before regaining her composure. “Rhys, dear, it’s just that… well… she insulted me. And Walter, too, for that matter. You can’t let that stand, can you?”

“And to think of it, she’s just a commoner and…”

“Shhh..” Rhys placed his hands on his lips stopping her from speaking further.

“First of all, don’t use the words dear..” he warned in a cold tone.

Sophia bristled at the reprimand but kept her mouth shut. She could feel the atmosphere in the room shift, the tension thickening like a heavy fog. She was definitely out of her league here.

Rhys turned his attention to Walter, his eyes boring into the man’s soul.

“And you, Walter. What do you have to say for yourself? Trying to strike a woman, regardless of who she is? And my woman, no less.” His voice was quiet, but the steel in it was unmistakable as Sophia and Walter exchanged glances.

“Are you alright?” Rhys turned to Naya who shook her head indicating a no.

“You just left out of nowhere and these two began to bully me..” she whimpered as she held Rhys’s hands.

“He tried to hit me and I’m definitely not okay..” she pouted as Sophia and Walter kept exchanging glances.

Rhys nodded, his expression hardening even further. “I see. And I suppose they expected me to believe their lies, despite their clumsy attempt to deceive me.”

He turned to Sophia and Walter, his eyes cold as ice. “You two have greatly displeased me. I do not tolerate this kind of behavior in my presence or in my territory. And as for you, Walter, laying your hands on a woman, whether she’s a commoner or royalty, is unforgivable.”

Walter’s face paled as he realized the gravity of the situation. Sophia, too, was visibly shaken.

“What happened pumpkin? Why did this bastard try to hit you?” He asked Naya.

“Absolutely nothing. I was shopping just like you asked me to and then I saw this dress. But she just came from nowhere and began to demand for the dress when I clearly took it first and then she called him to come harass me..’ Naya explained as Rhys listened quietly.

Rhys nodded thoughtfully, his eyes never leaving Naya’s face.

“I see. And yet, she dared to lie and try to blame you. Tsk tsk, such a foolish move on her part. But I suppose she thought I would believe her over you, given her social standing.” He turned to Sophia with a cold smile.

“So tell me, my dear Lady Sophia, what do you think should be the consequences for your actions? For lying to me or for trying to use your father’s authority against Naya?”

“I…I.. I…” Sophia began to stammer but Rhys interrupted her by lifting his hands.

“I seriously have nothing to do with you. He’s the one I have scores to settle with..” he looked at Walter with a wicked grin on his face.

“You know what, little man. Drive yourself to my palace..” Rhys instructed.

Walter’s face paled even further at Rhys’ words, his eyes darting back and forth between Rhys and Sophia. It was clear he was terrified but knew better than to disobey Rhys’ orders.

“Yes, my lord. As you wish,” Walter stammered, bowing low before scurrying off to find the nearest exit.

Sophia, now alone, looked at Rhys in fear.

“You get lost!” She said calmly to Sophia who quickly ran off.

“And you?” He turned to Naya.

“Get the dress you wanted and give all the things you got to the salesgirl. Meet me in the car after that.” He instructed before walking away as well.
