Chapter 20 | Mature
Trigger warning: Aggressive behavior. Don't read, or read at your own risk.

The palace is illuminated with constant light from lamp posts and lanterns, making the area dazzling. But the mood is gloomy, and the environment is dim since the beast does truly live in the shadows. The Emperor emerges from the hallway hidden in the umbra beneath the brilliant moon, imposing himself upon all living things.

His icy and tyrannical demeanor is sufficient to silence everyone. Right now, the palace is downright frightening. Before she was hauled away for an unclear purpose, it was fun. The lamps mounted on the wall and on the posts shone in their gloomy yellow hues, and the torches were ablaze in their never-ending flames. The smudges of his redolence of nothingness fill the space, enhancing his aura's boldness in the area.

They were in his wake. The knights are dragging her roughly under the commander's direction. Bellona experienced the greatest horror she had ever experienced when the Emperor vanished from their line of sight and moved faster than anyone else.

"Let me go! Please let me go!" She begged as she tried to get away from the knights dragging her.

"Just stay still or you'll get hurt," the commander said sternly.

She tried reaching the man in front of him to ask for help. "Commander, please help me. I didn't do anything wrong. Please help me!"

"Just stay still." The commander sighed due to her stubbornness. She did not stop thrashing away. She's scared to death; her dear life is on the edge. What is about to happen? Something's wrong. Why is this happening? She was sure she had done nothing wrong by dancing. Did she perhaps offend the Vassily family? No way, she's doomed! She'll die!

They entered the emperor's room right away. The knights threw her aside as soon as they entered the vast, dark room, and she fell to the ground. The commander departed along with the knights. She was left shaking and in a state of disbelief within the Emperor's chamber, unaware of what is actually taking place. It feels scary; the room is dark.

"H-h-help..." She tried reaching out to anyone.

But to her surprise, a familiar, husky voice responded, making her quake on her post even more. "Well, well, would you look at that slut?"

What? She squinted her eyes to check the area. She couldn't see anything until a bright light opened and hit her eyes really hard. She had to close her eyes immediately and cover her face to recover. It was painful; the sudden brightness caused her eyes to ache.

"I thought you were in disguise. What happened, kitten? Trying to impress everyone tonight? Why? Wanna get everyone's attention and get fucked by their stares?" The Emperor said, enraged.

Tears immediately formed in her eyes. She repeatedly shook her head. "No, what are you talking about, your majesty? That's inappropriate!"

The Emperor chuckled. Macsen rolled his eyes because of the repulsive image. He approached the trembling woman with his piercing knife glares while carrying an authoritative demeanor and a robe that was hanging at his back. "What's inappropriate? You, seducing everyone? Glad you fucking know."

What is he saying? He crouched down to reach her level and whispered in her ears. "I've clearly told you so many times to leave, right? What the fuck are you still doing here?"

"Please spare me," she cried.

The emperor chuckled wildly, making her tremble even more. "And why the fuck were you dancing? You're not a dancer, you're a fucking servant. You're trying so hard to get everyone's attention, huh. Why? Do you want to get fucked that bad? Tell me, do you want to get fucked?"
