Chapter 11 - A Completely Legalized Idea

1454 Words
The next day, Bella woke up very early when the sun started to rise, she sat before the window silently, looking outside until the sky had turned into total daylight. After she washed up, she talked to herself before the mirror in the washroom, she had organized the content of this speech a hundred times silently in her head. Bella pinched and slapped her cheeks lightly to add a little bit of colour to them and then walked downstairs to the dining room. She really wanted to go home, it had been several days since she was kidnapped from the front of the hotel where her wedding was taking place. Her mother should be worried sick about her. When she entered the dining room, that disgusting, evil man sat at the head of the table. He behaved in an elegant, noble way. He naturally drew all eyes toward him. Bella’s heart sighed. God gave him the face of an angel, the body of a statue but the soul of the Devil. There was evil inside him. Ziv and Roy stood up straight near the table when they saw Bella walk over, they both blinked heavily. They could not believe their eyes. Roy pulled out the chair for Bella, and she sat down silently. Evil just focused on his breakfast, he did not even lift his head. What an arrogant man! The oppressive air in the room stole the breath of everyone in the room. Bella ate her food slowly, then after she took a deep breath, her voice was low and hesitant, “Sir, uh, … could I ask to go home today?” Charles lifted his head, at last, took a glance at her, in a way it was like the highest God watching his humble people on earth, “When you have given birth to my child, you can leave anytime you want to.” Rage rose high in her chest, but Bella tried to calm herself down because she knew she would not be able to physically fight Lord Charles. She tried to explain, while she used the calmest tone she could muster, “It should be approximately ten months before I could give birth, even if I had been pregnant now. I would need to see my family during this period, needn’t I?” Are you losing your mind? Do you think it is such a simple thing to give birth to a baby? Bella kept a smile on her face and looked at him with an expectation of his frustration, though the truth was that she wanted to dig her fork into his face. She hoped that he could be convinced Charles eyed her indifferently, “You can ask leave when you are pregnant.” As he glanced at her belly, he said with a faint sneer that hung on his lips, “Can I say it as an invitation to me?” What? She just wanted to ask to leave. Bella was uncomfortable by his glance, she moved her body and tried to hide her lower half under the table. She explained patiently, “Look, I am not against living together before marriage, but, the baby is a gift for couples in love, making a baby can be only done with someone you love.” She pointed to herself, and in kind of an insulting tone she said, “Well, look at me, I have been the one in a s*x scandal, who had been abandoned my ex-fiance.” She kept trying to convince him, “A woman like me is really an unqualified match to a man as charming and noble as you.” How could one show their own darkness to the public, she was so hurt and bitter, but she could only do it this way in hopes that he would let her leave. Charles did not care for her words, he made a quick look at her, “If you like, I can love you? One can have love by making love.” He said while his eyebrows lifted. “What IS love? It is only one syllable? Just pronounce it, everyone could have plenty of “love” by saying that one syllable.” Bella felt sorry for him. That guy is insane! How could his thinking be so different? She could only keep trying to persuade him, “The child would be cursed because of me. Believe me, you deserve a better woman, one who is equal to you.” Charles sneered, his blue eyes flickered with pride, “Who dare curse the child of Charles Williams?” My God! Charles Williams? Her eyes went wide, this was her first time hearing his name. She was astonished. So that was why he looked familiar to her, he is Charles Williams, King of the Sea, who owns the most influential shipping boat empire in the world. That was why he has been called “Lord” because his family had been given the honour by the Queen. Why had she been chosen by him? Bella was so flabbergasted, so she asked, “Are you really the King of the Sea, Lord Charles Williams?” Seeing the admiration in her eyes, Charles sneered and looked at her scornfully, he did not even think to answer her question. Instead, he asked, “So, have you made up your mind? All women have the same kinds of desires. From men they want money and power, that is very clear.” She was not one of those women. “No, no.” Bella said seriously, shaking her hand, “It is impossible for me to give birth to your child just for money and power.” She had been trapped in the disorderly Sanders family, she was not forced to stay with that kind of wealthy family, and the Sanders were in a far lower class than Charles, who indeed was nobility in the top category. What she wanted was just a peaceful, simple life with a small family of three, never wanting to become her mother whose life had been destroyed by mistake and had to live a whole life in humiliation. “Bella!” With his patience had run out, Charles threw his fork and knife on the plate and began to fume. At this moment, someone had shown up at the door and rang the bell. Ziv went to answer the door and then came back hurriedly. He rushed over to Charles and whispered to him Charles observed Bella and nodded, “Take them to the hall.” Then he stood up and walked to Bella’s back, lifted her collar, and let it slip down off her shoulder to expose the pale and almost transparent skin. His fingers slid slowly over the surface, so thorough and tender, like a nurse looking for a vein. With his fingers placed next to her neck, he bent down slowly, and whispered into her ear, “Maybe, there is another way to convince you to give birth to my child.” He leaned into her so that his lips were pressed to her ear. His chin seemed to graze the skin between Bella’s neck and her shoulder, his warm breath tickled intimately on her naked skin. She was unsure if she was nervous or fearful, but she began to tremble, “What, what do you want…?” “Of course, I want…. you!” Suddenly, he bit her on the neck like yesterday morning, sipped the blood, and held her tightly in the chair. The wound was not so painful this time, what made it unbearable was trying to resist his drinking and licking the injury, while she was feeling the loss of blood, there was a wave of warmth that spread from her shoulder to the most sensitive parts of her body. It was entirely thrilling. Yesterday’s experience taught her to keep her teeth clenched tightly, and not to let out a sound. He stood up and took a napkin from Roy, wiped the blood off his lips, gave Bella a glance and said, “Clean her up.” He then turned toward Ziv, “Go to the hall.” “Wait a minute!” Bella exclaimed, suddenly, worried. “What on earth are you going to do?” The determined look he had made her feel uneasy. She knew that the thing he wanted to do next would definitely be trouble. Charles stopped at the door, turned toward her gracefully and said, “Something to help you in your decision to give birth to my child. Something that is completely legal.”
