CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR
Naya walked briskly to Rhys room, not minding the way people stared at her as she went on.
All that was on her mind was to meet Rhys, talk to him, and make him change his mind. At all costs.
She did not want to be his woman, a submissive, someone no different from a slut, she did not want any of that.
She finally arrived at Rhys’s room as she stood by the door. Naya couldn’t believe how blind she was.
How did she not suspect any movement of his?
She signed, placing her hand on the door knob, taking a deep breath, and gathering all the courage she could muster, she opened the door and walked in.
Luckily for her, Rhys was inside when she got in. He held a cigarette as he stood in front of the window.
She stood for a while, as Rhys pretended as if she was not there though Naya knew fully well that he could sense her presence, he just wanted her to speak first and she was not going to do that.
The silence in the room was deafening, and it felt like hours had passed before Naya finally spoke.
“I won’t be your submissive,” she began, her voice trembling.
“I can’t be that to you. I don’t want to be.”
Rhys turned around slowly, fixing her with a piercing gaze.
“Why not?” he asked, his voice low and dangerous.
“You would have everything you could ever want. You would have wealth and comfort, anything you could desire.”
“But I wouldn’t have freedom,” she stated, her eyes meeting his.
“I wouldn’t have a say in what I do or how I’ll go about it, I’ll be bound to you forever, like your little puppet!!” She deadpanned anger coursing through her.
He still hadn’t apologized for fooling her all this while, he made her look like a complete idiot.
“And how dare you?” She asked in anger as Rhys kept a calm expression on his face.
“Dare what?” Rhys asked, raising an eyebrow. “Dare to care about you? To want you to be mine?”
Naya felt her blood boiling at his words.
“You don’t care about me Rhys, you tricked me,” she said, her voice rising.
“You lied to me, and you used me. I trusted you, and you took advantage of that.”
“I did not use you,” Rhys said, his voice still calm, but his eyes flashing with anger.
“I never forced you to do anything.” He pointed out. He has decided to stay calm, as he wanted to take things easy with her.
“Wow..” Naya mouthed in a low tone as she felt tears at the corner of her eyes.
“So I was just a fool right?” She mouthed in a low voice as she ran her hands through her hair.
“You’re right” She raised her hands in surrender, as a tear dropped from her eyes.
“I was just a cheap girl, who falls for every good-looking man. I just let my heart lose and like any attractive man and then allow them to use me the way they like. You used me, Rhys!!!” She cries in a loud voice as a sob slipped her lips.
Rhys’s expression softened, and he took a step toward her.
“No, you’re not a fool,” he said, his voice gentle.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“And you’re not cheap. You’re an amazing woman, Naya, and I never meant to use you. Things happen..” he said to her.
Naya looked at him, her eyes red and puffy.
“You’re such a jerk!” She uttered, he still hasn’t apologized, he didn’t even know the right thing to do.
“Let me go, Rhys.. I’ll leave Shadowvale with my sister. Just let me go..” she pleaded as she continued crying.
“Naya..” Rhys called in a low voice as he approached her slowly, he then took her hands and he slowly wiped her tears, before engulfing her in a tight embrace.
Naya then burst into another round of fresh tears, soaking his shirt with her tears.
“Everything will be fine, with time. I’ll take care of everything. I know it’ll be hard to accept this, but know that I care a lot about you..” he said slowly to her ears and Naya could only scoff at his words
Those were not the words she wanted to hear from him.
“I don’t want you to take care of anything,” she said, her voice muffled against his chest.
“I just want you to let me go..”
“Naya, I can’t…” Rhys began but Naya interrupted him by pulling away from the hug.
She looked up at him as her eyes met his, she stared at him for a long time before she suddenly slapped him.
Naya felt her wrist hurt as she did that, but Rhys did not show any sign of reaction as he kept a straight face.
“I hate you!” She blurted out with all the hatred she could muster.
“I hate the day we met and I regret meeting a person like you, Rhys..”
“You’re selfish and think only about yourself and all your selfish gains..”
“You’re just a proud king who has no one by his side, no family, no loved ones, you’re literally alone that’s why you think you can use people’s pain to fill your boredom. That’s why you’re alone. I hate everything about you..” Naya said in a curt tone as she wiped off her tears.
“You’re going to regret ever meeting me Rhys, you’ll regret choosing me as your submissive. I promise you that!” She concluded as Rhys just kept his normal expressionless face.
“Are you done?” Came his next shocking as Naya squinted her eyes at him in surprise.
He looked totally unaffected by her words.
“Rant all you want Naya. You’re mine forever and there’s nothing you can do about it. And don’t push me…” he warned with a threatening glare that sent chills down Naya’s spine as she gulped in fear.
She had never seen Rhys like that, scaring and intimidating.
“And what If I do?” She challenged him. She was not going to back down.
“Go to bed, you look exhausted..” Rhys said in sarcasm as he turned to leave.
“I’m not done yet!!” Naya yelled at him, but he continued walking away.
Blinded by anger and frustration, she angrily picked up a flower vase that was lying on a table and threw it right at him.
Rhys stopped in his tracks as the vase shattered on his head, sand and dust stained on his body.
Rhys turned around, and the look on his face made Naya’s heart skip a beat. He was furious, and she had never seen him like this before. He was usually so calm and controlled, but now he looked like a different person.
“You think that’s funny?” he asked, his voice cold and hard.
“You think it’s funny to throw things at me, to hurt me? Well, let me tell you something. That was a mistake. A huge mistake”
Naya took a step back, fear gripping her heart, but she did not show her fear, but instead braced herself up.
“So you can get angry, right? Okay, come at me! Hit me, beat me up, or rather feed in me and kill me, because I’d rather be dead than be with a person like you..” she fired at him.
“If you want to die, just off the window and get rid of your pathetic life..” Rhys retorted as he tried to control himself from doing something stupid.
“Damn you!” She cursed at him. The tension in the room was terrifying.
“You think you can talk to me like that?” Rhys asked, his voice low and dangerous.
“You think you can disrespect me and not face consequences? You’re wrong, I’ll kill you and then go for everyone you love or rather I’ll allow you to watch them suffer..” he deadpanned and Naya knew he was talking about her sister.
Naya’s eyes widened, and she felt a knot of fear twist in her stomach.
“Keep my sister out of this..”
“Really? I can make her my lunch for you daring to raise your hand at me..” he smirked wickedly and Naya immediately felt a huge lump on her throat.
“I didn’t mean to-”
“Enough!” Rhys snapped, his face like thunder.
“Be careful Naya..” he warned, as Naya stilled, her eyes fixed on the ground. She suddenly lost her tongue.
“I do what I want to do and however I want. You’re going to be my submissive and that’s my decision…”
“I have feelings, Rhys..” Naya chimed in with a shaky voice.
“And I don’t give a shit about em’ to hell with your damn feelings..” He snapped at her coldly.
“Get your damn self out before I come out and clean this mess..” Rhys ordered in a cold tone as he disappeared into the bathroom, banging on the door after he got in.
