The Domineering Tyrant And His Beautiful Maiden

Master Darian

Harmony stared down at her feet as she sat down in the carriage, she bent her feet to the side as she stared at the sandal and a small smile appeared on her lips

The carriage came to a sudden stop and Harmony almost fell forward at the abrupt stop if not for the warm hands that grasped her arm

"Careful" he simply said and glanced out the window. Stepping down, he walked towards the front

The coachman's eyes were wide open and white foam spilled from the corner of his lips. An arrow stilled at his chest

Harmony who had stepped down from the carriage couldn't stop the low gasp that escaped her lips

"He's been poisoned" Darian said as his keen eyes scanned the trees. He unceremoniously held her hand and dragged her towards the forest

"Milord, wh-what happene-" she wasn't able to complete her question when he passed her a look. His eyes had a dangerous glint in them and he released such a cold and menacing aura

Harmony kept quiet and just let him pull her along with him. His steps became slow as he made sure she was able to keep up with him

"Mi-"

"You're my slave, Harmony" He said to have Harmony clamp her mouth and she looked ahead "And I am your master, what do you think a slave should call her master?" His question left her puzzled as she didn't quite get him

"I-I don't know, Milord"

"Hear on, you should no longer regard me as 'Milord'" He said to her "Call me Master Darian " he said, in a somewhat authoritative tone

Harmony gazed at him with a look of surprise as she didn't expect his sudden order. She could only nod her head and went back to facing forward

And then, he nudged her hand such that she was totally facing him, her chest inches away from his

"I want to hear it from your lips, Harmony" The way he called her name made her inebriated as she stared into his eyes

His dark red eyes stared deep into hers as if he could see right through her. He nudged her closer once again and her hands subconsciously moved over to his chest to avoid her bumping into him. She could clearly feel his muscles from his shirt

"M-mi-" he tugged her closer again and a gasp left her lips this time. She didn't know what he was doing, but the way he held her made her feel a swirl in her stomach. She was so close to him that she could feel the warmth emitting from his body "Master...D-Darian" she shuttered

"Good" he sneered, his eyes wandering on her face before his hand left hers and Harmony took steps back, away from him. Her heartbeat was rapid as she tried to focus on where there were headed "Hope your tiny feet won't tire out, we'll be walking for a while. Glad I bought you a sandal, we wouldn't want you stepping on the stony ground, bare footed"

Harmony said no word as she tried to calm her beating heart, she had no idea what was wrong with her but the way he had been intimate with her made her feel a wave of shyness flood through her
