Chapter 589 - [Bonus ] Bait
Kaizan had come back after a long, tired day at work. Because of his absence yesterday, the work had piled. He had to go to the southern borders of Silver Vales to investigate gruesome murders of his werewolves and it wasn't a good sight. Also, he had received a message that his parents would be coming next week and that they wanted to host a wedding reception for him. He wondered if this was the right time. When he came back home, all he wanted was to be with his wife, but seeing Bernice in front of him was enough to soar his mood.
"General Kaizan!'' She called him but he ignored her and walked past. But when she said that she would be leaving tomorrow, it lifted some of his dampened spirits. She wanted to have tea with him and even though he desired to be with Olivia, he agreed to her wishes. He sat on the sofa to have tea and then would rush to his wife.
"Thank you so much, General Kaizan," she said as she poured tea for him. "Actually, both Mother and I feel that Olivia is doing very well in Silver Vales. So, there is no point in lingering here. We want to go back home." She handed him the cup and then sat opposite him.
He nodded as he sipped the tea. It was undoubtedly good. "I hope you had a pleasant stay," he said with nonchalance, not meaning a word. In fact, he thought that the mother and daughter were a good riddance.
"Oh, we did!" Bernice replied with enthusiasm. "And I can't wait to return."
Kaizan raised his eyebrows for a fleeting second. She was loving it here so much and the sudden change in her behavior surprised him. But he shrugged internally. As long as they left, he was happy. He sipped more tea. "What are your future plans?" he asked, relaxing a little and leaning back on the sofa.
She giggled. "Husband hunting."
Kaizan let out a soft laughter. "Not a bad idea."
"My mother is after my life to find a husband for me," said Bernice. "You see, before Olivia got married to you, they had proposed my name for you. But—" she bit her lip.
"But?" Kaizan asked, sipping more tea.
She gazed into his eyes for a moment and then continued, "But because Olivia is Beta's daughter of the Whiteclaw pack, my name was overruled by the council. Mother was too afraid to even mention my name, but I believe they got the hint from my father. Still, they refused."
"I see," Kaizan replied in a boring tone.
She laughed. "What I mean is that now my mother is really planning on finding a suitable match for me. And I want to remain in the Whiteclaw pack."
Suddenly, Kaizan felt that the room was spinning. He shook his head slightly for the feeling to go.
"Is something wrong, General?" she asked in a dulcet voice.
"I think I am too tired," he replied, shaking his head.
"I can see that. Why don't you finish the tea and take a rest? We will be leaving tomorrow morning and we can meet then."
"That would be better," he said and gulped the tea down. He placed the cup back on the table and rose to his feet. The room reeled so fast around him that he sat back on the sofa with a thud. His vision became blurry. He pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and forefinger and when he looked up, he found two hazy Bernices watching him intently.
"General?" her soft voice came from a distance as if it was a ghost calling him. "Genneraall?"
His breath became shallow and his body felt like a huge stone. He couldn't even lift his fingers. Kaizan sank back. He saw that Bernice was opening her robe. He wanted to ask what she was doing, but he felt paralyzed. She opened the robe and tossed it on the sofa behind. Kaizan was shocked to see that she was wearing one of the nightgowns he had asked the seamstress to stitch for his wife. It was the one that was open in the front from top till the mid-torso with just one bowstring in the middle. The pink silk pooled just below her hips.
"The seamstress said that this was for me," she said with a smile as she walked up to him and came to stand right in front of him.
He wanted to deny it, but he couldn't even shake his head at this point of time.
She opened the string of her nightgown and it spilled over her breasts. "I didn't know that you were so interested in me, General. Giving the nightgown to me secretly was so naughty. What if Olivia comes to know about it? It would be such a scandal." She smiled and sat on his lap. She placed her finger on his lips and traced the outline. "All you have to do is tell my cousin that you don't desire her. She is a moron and has a very high sense of self-respect. She would leave immediately."
Kaizan was repulsed. He wanted to push her out of his lap and stand up and go to his bedchamber, but all he could do was sit there with heavy-lidded eyes and watch the girl touch him and talk to him. What had she done to him? Had she mixed a drug in the tea?
Bernice took his hand in hers and placed them on her cheek. She took a deep breath and her breasts moved up and down. "I craved for you even when I hadn't seen you, Kaizan. And Olivia hated you even after the marriage. I love you and she hates you. I know because she had told this to me the day I came here." She took his hand to her neck and then said, "You grabbed my neck that day, but I didn't mind. I felt like it was a moment of possession. I loved it." Slowly, she took his hand to her breasts and held it there over her hardened nipple. "See I am so aroused for you. Would you like to explore me more?"
Bernice knew that Kaizan couldn't do a thing right now. With the help of her mother, she had come up with a plan to heavily drug Kaizan because then only he could be trapped. The nightgowns came as an added advantage. No, they came as a boon.
Fuchsia knew that to drug a werewolf one needed a lot of quantity of the drug. So, after she had listened to her daughter's plan, she went to the market and bought the most potent drug and gave it to Bernice to use it in her tea. After that Fuchsia waited for Olivia to come in the evening and intentionally wasted her time by talking to her about leaving so that she was late to take a bath and wasn't there when Kaizan returned. This was extremely essential for their plan to work.. It was Bernice who suggested that if they talk about leaving, Olivia and Kaizan would take the bait.
