Chapter 71: The Horrible Night (2)

(Note: Nothing in this Chapter supports violence against women. As a girl myself, I condemn any such action which is derogatory to any woman. My dear readers, if any of you find such content disturbing then please skip this Chapter. I can assure you that you will still be able to understand the next Chapter.)

It took Evelyn a long time to find her voice. She lowered her head and gulped in fear. Rafael’s aura was too intimidating. It reminded her of someone who has been the reason behind her horrible nightmares.

It made her want to crawl away from him.

"Your Highness....I am an ordinary slave. I don’t know any prince and I didn’t plan anything."

Though she was afraid, her voice was firm.

However, when she said all this, she was not aware of what was going on inside Rafael’s mind.

His eyes traveled down to her body. Even though she was covered in mud, one could tell at a glance that she was a beautiful lady...especially when he saw her eyes just now.

Rafael’s eyes flickered with lust when he saw her lowered head again. The thought that she was Regan’s slave didn’t help any less.

How pleasurable it would be to violate a woman who belonged completely to Regan!

His eyes flashed as she suddenly bent down and put one of his knees on the ground.

When her chin was suddenly pinched with such a strong force, Evelyn’s eyes teared up and she flinched because of the pain.

She looked at him in fear while he stared at her with lust-filled eyes.

Rafael suddenly loosened his hold on Evelyn’s chin and caressed the spot he had been holding. Evelyn could feel pain even from that caressing.

Her whole body was stiff but she didn’t have the courage to push him away. She seemed to have an inkling that it would only invite something more horrible.

She just wanted him to move away from her.

On the other hand, Rafael smiled suddenly as he whispered

"Why don’t you come to my side? You are quite ...a beauty."

The way his eyes looked at her body while he said those words made Evelyn feel as if she was not wearing anything.

This feeling was the most disgusting she had ever felt in his life.

Hearing his words, she trembled but still tried to say respectfully

"This slave doesn’t deserve that."

Rafael however chuckled at these words and looked at Evelyn with interest-filled eyes.

Does she think that he can’t see through her thoughts?

"If I want you, do you think that anyone can stop me?"

Evelyn’s heart sank down to the bottom when she heard these words. Her green eyes started to fill with tears and the shivering of her body intensified.

What could she do to go away from here?

But her reaction was what Rafael liked to see. He enjoyed watching fear for him in others’ eyes.

"Just tell them that you planned the attack. I would manage everything else."

He said gently as his hand moved to the back of her dress.

Evelyn’s eyes widened with fear and shock and she immediately moved away from him.

"No!"

She whispered sharply as she hugged her body while hiding in a corner.

All the gentleness from Rafael’s face vanished instantly and looked down at Evelyn with cold eyes.

"You are daring enough to say ’no’ to me! Do you even know who I am?"

He said coldly as he looked at the trembling form.

"I am the second prince, Prince Rafael. That master of yours...he is nothing in front of me."

When Evelyn heard his words, she suddenly felt a bile in her throat.

So he was the second prince. She knew very well that it had been the second prince who had announced that sick game of leaving so many alive people inside an arena with hungry lions.

The new revelation made her feel more and more disgusted with the man.

No wonder he reminded her of him. He was just as sick as that man.

However, as she was lost in her own thoughts, Rafael walked towards her again. He suddenly gripped her hair and made her look at him.

"Ah..."

Evelyn cried out in pain and tears fell from her eyes one by one.

"After I will leave, they will come and ask you if you planned the attack with Prince William, and you will say yes to them. Do you understand?"

Evelyn was scared but she didn’t say ’yes’. She shook her head firmly despite the pain in her scalp.

"I didn’t do anything wrong."

"Ahh..."

The sudden slap made Evelyn’s head collide with the wall that was supporting her.

Blood came out from the new wound as well as her torn lips.

Rafael’s eyes looked menacing as he looked at her.

He grabbed her hair again and made her look at him as he asked coldly

"I will give you one more chance. Now give me an answer I want to hear."

This time, Evelyn refused to say anything.

Rafael no longer had any patients. He looked at her beautiful face and smiled coldly.

"Then don’t blame me for not being gentle later."

The next moment, his other hand went to her dress and he ripped it apart without any hesitation.

"No!"

Evelyn could only shout and try to push him away helplessly. One hand of hers covered her body while the other hit Rafael aimlessly.

But how could she compare to the energy Rafael had ...especially when she had not eaten anything and had a wounded shoulder.

Soon, she was subdued by him and lying on the floor.

Both of her hands were held by him above her head while with other he opened his pants.

Seeing such a scene through her blurry eyes filled Evelyn’s heart with despair.

She wanted to die. This was the most she could bear.

’Oh God...please take me away from here.’

As if God listened to her, she could feel her consciousness fading away. However, at the same time, she heard a voice ...a very familiar voice.

"Evelyn!"

And then she finally went unconscious.
