Chapter 30: Making A Deal With The Devil
"Nadia…coming into my room when the skies are already dark…Are you perhaps regretting that we didn't go all the way back there?" Yiman asked as he gulped down a glass of wine while wearing his usual loose robes, showing off his chiseled abs and chest.
"You…did you have any hand in what happened to my son?" Nadia asked coldly, ignoring his words.
Yiman stepped onto the balcony and said without turning around, "I am a king, first and foremost. If I was to hurt a poor boy whose mother is going to become my queen, what would that make me?"
Nadia glared at his back as she stepped into the balcony as well, "You didn't answer my question."
Yiman sighed as he shook his head, "I didn't hurt your precious boy, nor did I order anybody to. Why would I do that?"
"So that you will be able to exploit me even further," Nadia said with an icy glare.
Yiman chuckled as if he heard a joke and slightly turned to look at her as he said, "Look at you. You are already at my mercy. I can do anything with your life. So why would I have to hurt your boy to exploit you? Does it even make sense?"
Nadia suddenly realized that Yiman's words were right. Since Yiman was playing a game with her, she momentarily forgot about the fact that she was indeed at his mercy unless she wanted to end up in Vuran's hands.
So Yiman really had no reason to hurt Lucas. Still, just out of spite, she said, "Who knows, you are quite the despicable man who could resort to vile tricks just like tricking me before in front of that old bastard. Forget it…You already know the true reason I came here. I want your best physician to make Lucas better."
"Are you ordering me?" Yiman said with narrowed eyes, making Nadia take a deep breath and say in a sofTer voice, "Please…I am asking you to help him."Since it was for Lucas, Nadia didn't dare to piss off Yiman just because of her ego and was forced to lower herself just to pacify him.
Yiman smirked, seeing her soften her tone out of desperation, and casually asked as he leaned against the parapet, "And why should I help you? You know I am not really a generous man, do you? As a king living in this world, that is the last thing I should be."
Nadia bit her lip, knowing what he was insinuating, and said in a frustrated manner, "I will accept a single rule you say."
Nadia knew that Yiman would always take advantage of any situation to make her swallow one of his despicable rules.
Yiman lightly laughed as he said, "Wow, you really know me now. No wonder you were such a great matriarch. Well, I won't be harsh since you asked me nicely. My rule is that I can put my dick inside your pussy."
"You bastard!" Nadia clenched her teeth, feeling goosebumps all over her skin just by hearing it. She had taken extra desperate measures to make sure he didn't get to have sex with her by acting like a prostitute before Vuran. And now, all that effort was flushed down the drain.
She truly felt that her luck was rotten, but then she felt that she was a bit naive to think she could hold off Yiman for too long, considering how cunning he was.
He was definitely the kind of man who would get what he wanted by any means.
"Hey, I am trying to be nice here. Trust me when I say I could have come up with rules that would make this one look so tame. Besides, why are you so concerned about having sex with me after everything we already did? It's not like you are a virgin who still hasn't married. So just consider this as my dick simply entering your body and nothing else. You also would have better chances to make me cum," Yiman said with a wink.
The main reason Nadia didn't want to have sex with him was that she considered it to be a very intimate act that she should only save for Lucas, especially since another man's dick would enter the most sacred part of her body. And since she knew how big Yiman's dick was, it would surely touch the deepest parts of her pussy which not even Lucas could ever reach, nor did her late husband able to as well.
"Fine! I knew you would be taking advantage of me like this. Now please heal Lucas. His treatment cannot be delayed," Nadia didn't want to waste time by hesitating since Lucas' well-being was most important to her.
But she didn't know why her heart was thumping like this.
Yiman smiled as he said, "Of course. I have already sent a qi transmission to my servants outside to bring my personal physician to treat your son. He will be here within minutes."
Nadia felt relieved upon knowing that Lucas would soon be alright. His condition had been pricking her heart continuously, and even now, her desire to kill the one who bullied Lucas was still alive.
And so she looked at Yiman and said, "I don't want situations like this to come up anymore where each time my son gets bullied, I have to come running to you only for you to take advantage of me."
"Oh? And what do you propose? I mean, it's not like you can do anything about it considering your situation," Yiman said as he rubbed his chin.
"Grant me a post of a teacher at the Royal Sect. Then I will personally be able to make sure that nobody harasses Lucas again. Even if my cultivation is sealed, I am sure no disciple would go against their teachers. And before you even question my qualifications, let me tell you that other than just being the matriarch of my sect, I was also an instructor. I even taught my son, and if you had seen his sword skills, that should be proof enough of my teaching abilities and skill," Nadia said confidently with her arms crossed.
She knew that Yiman would keep on taking advantage of situations like this, and she didn't want Lucas to get hurt again as well. So this was the best option she could think of.
Yiman chuckled as he asked, "A teacher? You must be joking, considering how you have no right or power to ask me to grant you such a position. The people managing the Royal Sect would never take you in. I am also not the one managing it but the people from my father's side. My ancestor entrusted the royal sect to them, so I cannot directly influence things over there even if I want to. But…I can put in a recommendation for you…with a price, as you know."
