Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

As if alive fish in the pan, she withered and trashed but he did not let her go until he had her. Not once, but twice, he continued to have her way with her until she was fully exhausted.

Now she did not have the strength to even move her finger much less standing and preparing breakfast.

"You are a monster!" she glared at him and shouted before punching him one more time though she knew it did not affect him at all.

"I know, I know, I am sorry. I have not realized that you are so damn addictive." he whispered as he kissed his lips but she pushed him away.

"But I am hungry and tired and I want to take a bath too." damn here she pouted again.

Did she even know how it affected him! It makes him just go wild. He closed his eyes as he knew that if he would eat her once more before feeding her, she would just kill him.

"Alright, I am cooking something but do not pout like that ever in front of me or then not blame me for having you since you look much more delectable than food." she blinked as she did not understand what he was talking about. She did not pout! But she still nodded as she did not want to spend all her time on the bed.

"Mmm, but I am too tired and you did not know how to cook." she sighed as she had never seen him around the kitchen. She was sure he could not even cut fruits properly, much less cook food.

"Wait here, i will bring food." he patted her hair as he did not want to look any lower or he would not be able to leave.

She was already making soup when he attacked her, so he just lit the fire again and tasted it.

Nodding in satisfaction, he cut the vegetables but it felt like they were not in equal shape.

Shaking his head, he filled them and made sandwiches while cutting the apples and placing some grapes in it with oranges.

When the fragrance of soup wafted in his nose, he placed it in two bowls and collected it too and walked towards the bed.

He looked away when his eyes fell on her since she was still in his shirt.

"Here, you do not need to go to the dining table because if I see you sitting there in a half naked state, I would rather have you than this food." Eli, who was holding the sheets to take them off, pulled them closer to her body and nodded her head like a scared bunny who was standing in front of a wolf.

He shook his head but chuckled when he saw her hiding her face in the dishes and wolfing them up like she had been hungry for ages.

This time he had truly tried her or else she would not have been this exhausted. Even her face was looking a bit pale and covered with sweat.

Wearing his pants properly, he walked out of the room where four knights were already guarding the door.

"Bring a dress for the lady and a pair of clothes for me too and prepare two carriages for us.

Have you brought the papers I have asked you to?" the knight nodded and passed a bunch of parchements to him before leaving from there to arrange for things he demanded.

He scanned the papers as he flipped them one by one and a satisfied smile formed on his lips.

Walking in with confidence, he noticed that she had already cleaned the plates.

"Wow, was the food that tasty?" he asked with a look of anticipation when she shook her head.

"No! The soup was burnt and I wonder how the soup got burnt? The vegetables were too thickly cut and were falling all over while the grapes were sour but since I was hungry I had it all. Is there some more soup?" she asked as she raised her head and blinked innocently making him speechless.

"You!" only she was the one who could insult his culinary skills that badly and then ask him to feed her more.

"I will let you go since you have fed me enough too." With that he stood up and broingh more food for her which she ate with a smile on her face.

His eyes softened as he continued to stare at her while she was eating. The more he looked at her, the more he did not want to let go of her.

He felt like he was feeling suffocated and not able to breathe just by thinking about it. The palace would soon turn toxic and the smile on her face would vanish when she would return there but then again, his palace would be no better.

He had to make sure it was safe for her to live there before inviting her.

"Eli! You have to go soon." The girl who was still eating happily stopped and the spoon fell from her hands.

She looked out of the window and it was already twilight. She was out of her palace for 24 hours and she was sure that everyone would be worried about her.

She had to leave. It was not that she had forgotten about it, she was just trying to ignore it because she was not sure if she even belonged there anymore.

"I know your fears, therefore I have a gift for you."
