The Devil's Cursed Witch novel Chapter 222

Just as the two mates were indulging in a passionate kiss, someone was frozen just beyond the door, her eyes wide open as she witnessed the scene from the doorway.

The door of the chamber was left open as Draven was standing there a while ago. When Clio and Reya left the chamber, they did not bother to stand guard outside and left the hallway unattended.

Isa got to know that Draven had gone to visit Ember, and thus, she thought it a good chance to go to meet her, thinking that with the King present there, that shameless Ember would not be able to send her away.

She found it a good chance to show how Ember wronged her in front of Draven. He had asked her to apologize to his mate, but though she planned to comply with his order, it was with the intention of creating more trouble for Ember. Apology would be nothing but a fake one.

‘But this…’

Not even once in her wildest imagination could she have guessed that she would get to see something so disgustingly bloodcurdling.

Draven kissing that pathetic human.

She could not bear it. The situation they were in, that intimacy, Isa could not help but get furious.

‘That should have been me! That is my place!’

In her mind, she was the one who should have been the King’s mate. It should have been her showered with his love but….this human had ruined everything.

The pair of mates were so immersed in their intimate act that they didn’t know someone was standing at the door glaring daggers at them.

With wrath filling her mind and tears filling her eyes, Isa disappeared from the doorway.

‘That human, she doesn’t deserve what is mine!’

After that long passionate kiss, finally Draven stopped and pulled away from his mate. Ember still had her eyes closed as she was trying to catch her breath, gasping from her mouth.Her small face scarlet red, those lips swollen and wet…

Draven found her appearance beautiful.

He didn’t wish to pull away from her and continued to hold her close, his face still close to hers, observing her closely.

Ember opened her eyes, only to see his pair of red eyes looking back at her. Her mind was blank and she was not able to think about anything.

All she could see and think was her mate and his touches, that intimacy and the seductive but comforting scent coming from him. Everything that had occupied her mind before— those displeased thoughts, anger, and hate—suddenly disappeared and she felt peaceful.

She could only stare at those red eyes which didn’t look scary to her at this moment.

Knowing he would soon lose control, Draven let her go and she immediately stepped away from him, her back hitting the wall. And then, reality struck her, and she felt a complicated web of emotions with shame at the forefront.

‘What have I done? Why did we—’

She was upset at him. She wanted to give him the silent treatment. Yet…Yet…

She couldn’t understand how this came about, why he approached her when he would always distance himself from her as if she was something he would not allow closer to him.

Ember let out a shaky breath as she looked up at him. “Y-Your Majesty, why did you—”

“I don’t know any other way to comfort you,” he replied calmly with that cold dignified voice, trying his best to hold back and not pounce on his mate who was smelling delicious at this moment.

How he almost thought to not wait for her consent and just do as he wished with her. How he wished to crush that delicate body under him, never to let her go away from him, but…he couldn’t.

Such desires could only remain in his thoughts for now.

‘Comfort me? Such an Intimate…umm… embarrassing way of comforting!’

She didn’t know how to react to his claim, but she could feel the anger brewing inside her had faded before she knew it and her mind was calm. She almost wondered if his way of comforting her really worked on her. She only knew she liked what he did with her and she found her mind becoming peaceful thanks to the scent coming from him.

She shook her head to get those thoughts out of her mind and asked, “Didn’t Your Majesty agree to leave after telling you about my dream?”
