"ARE YOU kidding me?" Cerelia deadpanned, turning back to glare at Lucien. "It's a goddamn sex dungeon."

"What?" he shrugged carelessly, "It was the only dungeon I had here. And it won't be a sex dungeon unless you have sex here, so chill."

"This very small cell doesn't even have enough space to sit. It's full of these tools. That extremely weirdly angled table, that cage, that alter with those stinking ropes." Cerelia scrunched her nose up in disgust. "Firstly, you should make this place hygienic. Get rid of this stinking smell."

"A prison cell won't be a prison cell unless it stinks." he said as if it was the most obvious fact of the universe. "Now, go inside, love."

Cerelia groaned, although she stepped inside. "I'll get food and water, though, right?"

"You have to earn it, Cerelia." he smirked.

"How?"

"Just don't upset me." he shrugged before beginning to close the metal door.

"Wait." she intervened, making him halt. "You do remember that I've one chance for escaping still left, right?"

"Yes, you do." he nodded slowly, the gears in his mind turning. "That reminded me. You haven't been punished properly yet, aren't you?"

"Oh." she laughed awkwardly, "I thought we were beyond that, now, aren't we. . .?"

"Uh. . . nah." he snorted. "Hell nah."

She gulped. "So, um, what is it?"

"You wanna guess?" he snorted, making her eyes narrow.

"Oh, I don't know." she began sarcastically, "You want me to do hundred laps up the stairs, clean up your whole house or torture me like you were tortured back then?"

Lucien's jaw clenched in anger as he let out a sarcastic laugh. "Do you enjoy doing this to yourself?"

"What?" she raised a challenging brow at him.

"This." he hissed, vamp speeding inside as he slammed her body into the table, its weirdly shaped edges digging into her skin painfully.

"Why do you like riling me up like this?" he asked through clenched teeth, squeezing her neck to cut off the air supply as she began choking for air. "Everything was wonderful and then you just had to make comments and ruin it all for yourself."

"F-Fuck you. . ." she gasped out when he released her neck, coughing harshly.

"Oh, is that what you want, huh?" he asked, twisting her arm behind her back as he pushed her face onto the table.
