Chapter 29: Chapter 29
Lord Xander pov....
After a long fight with Raphauzel ,i teleported back the mansion only to see Victoria kneeing in front of lady Madison and the rest servants stood behind her ,I strolled into the mansion with both hands in my trouser pocket , when I looked closely Victoria wasn't in a good shape ,her dress was torn ,a guard was standing behind her with a horse whip in his hand , then I understood the scene in front of me ,my blood began to boil ,I was so angry that at all I wanted to do right now is to separate their heads from their neck .
Before he could release the horse whip ,I appeared in front of him and throw him against the wall .
Everyone in the hallway held their breath lady Madison on the order hand screamed out loud ,she was shocked by what just happened ,she never expected me to return so soon .
" My lord ,you are back "
I ignored her and called out to the butler my voice echoed across the hallway making everyone shiver in fear .
" Sebastian!!!"
He ran up to me ,and bow his head to greet me .
" My lord you called for me "
I bought out a white handkerchief and wiped my hand with it then throw it on the ground .
" Can you explain to me in details ,what the hell is going on here "
He looked around only to see Victoria kneeling on the ground in pains .
" My lord I have no idea of what's happened here ,you asked me to send a letter to king Edward Theodore of Atlantis that was what I went to deliver ,I was just stepping into the mansion when I heard you call my name "
" Good ...very Good "
I walked up to Victoria and carried her in a bridal style when turned to leave , suddenly lady Madison stopped me .
" My lord ,you can take her ,she committed a crime that's why she's be punished for it "
" I didn't say a word to to lady Madison ,I climbed the stairs and bought Victoria to my chambers then quietly placed her on the bed ,she was still sobering ,but I didn't say a word .I turned to look a Sebastian who followed me into my room .
" Get me a bowel of warm water ,so I can clean her injury "
" My lord are you sure about that ,You might end up drinking from her blood "
" Do I look like a weakling to you Sebastian , You are trying to say I can't control my taste for blood anymore "
" No not at all my lord ,am just trying to ...."
" Save your explanation for later when I rip off some people's heads ,but for now go and get what I asked for "
" Yes my lord "
He left the room and closed the door behind him ,then I turned to Victoria who was still crying .
" What happened "
She didn't reply me ,this time her cry increased .
" Stop crying and explain to me what happened "
" I was busy doing to laundry when lady Madison and the rest of the servants walked into the room ,lady Madison started calling me names calming that I was a thief ,that I stole lady Akasha bracelet "
" I see ,go on am listening "
" I tried to explain but she paid deaf ears to my explanation instead she asked the guard you throw against the wall to give me Twenty strokes of a horse whip "
" Interesting "
Just then Sebastian walked into the room with a bowl of warm water and a clean towel , I placed the towel into the bowel of warm water and started cleaning her injury .
" What did I tell you about letting people touch you "
" Huh " When the warm water touched her injured skin she screamed out in pain and grip the bed sheet tight .
" I asked again Victoria what did I tell you about letting people touch you "
" I...I... thought you were referring to only men "
" Stubborn girl ,you don't listen to instructions but I hope you know I will have to punish you for letting that man flog you "
" What was I suppose to do "
I didn't reply her instead I concentrated more on cleaning her wounds ,the smell of her blood was making me uncomfortable ,it smelled so sweet ,I felt like taking a bit from her skin ,but I kept battling with the demon inside of me , Sebastian who had been standing beside me noticed how uncomfortable I was then he cleared his throat and whispered into my ears .
" My lord ,the servants are waiting for you downstairs "
" Yes I know ,but I have to clean her wound "
" Don't worry about it ,I will ask her friend to come help her out wouldn't that be nice Victoria "
Sebastian turned to look at Victoria who was lying on the bed .
" Yes please I will prefer Elena to help me here "
" Good "
I stood up and walked out of the room ,when I arrived at the hallway ,the servants were already waiting for me ,they were murmuring among themselves .
" So I left my mansion for just few hours and it was turned into a battle field ,can you explain that lady Madison "
' My...my lord actually that servant stole lady Akasha bracelet ,we found it in her bag "
" Who found it "
The place became awkwardly silent .
' I won't repeat myself again ,WHO FOUND IT "
" I don't think that's important my lord the most important thing was that it was found and the rules of this mansion states that when a thief is caught stealing he or she would be executed "
" Who makes the rules in this house "
" You my lord ".
" Who employed you "
" You my lord "
" If I ask you the same question one more time and you don't reply me ,I promise you here and now you won't live to tell how this meeting ended ,now tell me who found the bracelet "
" My lord ...it's...it's..."
" Did cat cut your tongue ,I will give yiu time to think, but you should know I am not patient when it comes to things like this now answer this very question I want to ask you "
" What was lady Akasha bracelet doing in my mansion because the last time I check she wasn't living here with me "
" My lord ..you see ...I...happen to come across it the last time she ...she .visited so she asked me to keep it safe for her "
" Really " I crossed my legs then took a sip from the blood tea that was placed on the table ." I never knew my house have become a warehouse ,where someone stores their valuables "
" My lord ,she trusted me with it "
" I believe I have given you enough time to think ,now tell me who found the bracelet "
"It was Isabella my lord "
" Wonderful"...A bright smile appeared on my lips
