Predatory Marriage (Web Novel)

Chapter 64 – Unquenchable Thirst for Power (2)

Even if she acted wronged, even if she became pitiful in front of him right now, Ishakan would still leave regardless. Their lives were worlds apart. And then, Leah would be the one to take care of the mess he had created after he left.

Even though she knew that… Tears clogged the back of her throat. The turmoil she felt in her heart, pierced it like jagged thorns. She was strong but delicate at the same time.

Leah blinked and inhaled the cool air. The musky scent of manliness from Ishakan wafted into her nose at their close proximity. She tried to reign in herself, warning him.

“Dont sympathize with me if you will not take any responsibility.”

“Sympathy? Youre talking nonsense.” He said in gritted teeth.

“Is that not our lovemaking?”

“…” As if his words were jarred in his throat, Ishakan remained silent. Leah broke loose from his grip; it was as if she were freeing herself from him, both emotionally and physically. As Leah turned back, Ishakan grabbed her again.

“Let go of me!”

However, Ishakan did not release her. Leah struggled, hitting his chest, and trying to twist away from his body. She hated Ishakan for toying with her. For bothering her and creating a mess for her to clean up. For disrupting the peace she had tried so hard to maintain.

But above all, she hated herself for letting Ishakan drag her around.

The difference in their strength was like heaven and earth. Ishakan simply overpowered her, forcing her to give up on her incessant struggle.

He opened his mouth, his voice cracking. “I…”

Leah glared at him. The golden eyes that were filled with anger a while ago had subsided.

“If I say that Ill take responsibility…” Her strength left. The fight inside her dissipated as she held her breath.

As if he were under a spell, Ishakan fixed his gaze on Leah, unblinking. The next words that he uttered with cautiousness was a confirmation of their relationship.
