Ian smashes and breaks his furniture inside of his room. The servants outside shivers in fear. His eyes were blinded in pure hate and rage. His cheek was still bright red as blood had dried up on his lip. The very thought of his grandfather hitting him because Scarlet frustrated him. An hour later, he finally calls down. He called out to the servants to clean up the mess and bring him some snacks. They did as he was told, quickly.

He chews on the chips, ignoring his cut lip as the salt stings it. He gulps in the green tea like a beast. Thoughts of way of killing Scarlet ran feverishly inside of his mind. He wanted to kill her. Kill her right now for being so arrogant and cocky when she was only a lower2 while he was an upper4.

Should he make her use up all of her cultivation and cripple her? Or should he cute off her ligaments one by one. No matter what came into his head, it just couldn't satisfy him. He angrily crashes the cup in his hand causing it to bleed. One of the maids hurry over to clean his wound.

His gaze slowly turns to the maid. As she felt his gaze on her, the maid shuddered under fear. Ian licks his lips. Candice wasn't here right now so he couldn't do it. But, a young gorgeous maid should help him get things off his head. He touches the maid's chin to make her look at him in the eyes. Tears were slowly swelling up in her eyes. This maid had a lover and was going to marry him soon. She kept herself clean for him, but the moment she met Ian's eyes, her entire self shatter. She knew what he was going to do.

The maid trembles deeply as she shut her eyes. She wanted to bite her tongue, but in doing so she would doom her whole family. She wanted to refuse him, but in doing so, she would doom her whole family. She only came here to this Household to pay off her family's debt. Not once did she want to get intimate with anyone in the Household. Her life was over no matter what she did. There was no way out. The moment Ian has his way with her, Candice will kill her, or he would throw her away like a dog.

Why, oh why did such a thing have to happen to her.

As though reading her mind, Ian slowly touches her trembling cheek as he cradles her. Her whole body froze from fear. It felt like the world went dark on her. Her footing shatters as she thought of her lover. Ian chuckles at her reaction. Just seeing how fearful she was made him feel a whole lot better. He grabs her chin as he closes in on her. The maid could only close her eyes like the dead.

"What are you doing?" a voice called out.

It was Ann. Ian looks at her as he let's go of the maid. She quickly bows to them and leaves as though she was running for her life. Ann watches as the maid leaves then back to her little brother.

"Is having an affair not enough for you, you would also attack your maid?" she asked.

"Not like it's the first time," he answered.

She puts her hand on her hips, "I don't care. You can do it later when you and Candice get married. Mess up as many of them you want, just do it after you marry Candice. We need her family influence."

He waves his hand at her, "Sure, sure."

Ann sighs out, "Also, deal with that whore or fiance of yours as well. She gave me a headache."

"What do you think bitch is giving me?" Ian said with an angry tone, "That pain in the ass just wouldn't die no matter what I do."

Ian was talking about the ambush he had sent during the war. When the original set out to capture the town board of the Huns, he knew that was his chance to get her killed. Kill her and make it look like an accident. Had she just died like he planned, none of this would be happening. He wouldn't be under such pressure, and his grandfather wouldn't be questioning him.

He bites down on the snake again, "I was going to come up with another plan until you showed up."

"Then just invite Candice over," said Ann.

Ian looks at her like she was stupid, "And make grandfather even more suspicious of me? Fuck no."

Ann sighs out, "You're right. Fine. Have it your way, just make sure Candice doesn't find out."

As soon as Ann left, Ian smirks out in gratitude. He called out to one of the servants to bring back the maid from earlier.

"Tie her up if you need to, just bring her back here unspoiled, you hear me? said Ian, "If you do so, I'll let you guys have a piece as well."

Hearing that from Ian made the servants even more resolved to bring her back. They quickly left at his order making him laugh. They were like horny monkeys in his eyes. As if he was going to share her with them. That was just his way of making sure they didn't ruin her before bringing her back.

A few minutes later, they brought the maid back. Her hands and leg were tied up with a rope. There was even a gag in her mouth to prevent her from biting off her tongue. Tears were streaming down from her eyes. The very sight made Ian feel high. He ordered all the servants in the surrounding area to leave and have only the guards stay.

The maid struggles to get out, but it was no use. Ian licks his lips as he removes the gag from her mouth. He smirks at her, "So you understand what's about to happen to you, don't you? If you beg me, I might just let you go."

Her last silver line of hope. She quickly got on her knee as she begged in tears.

"Young master, I beg of you. Please, please let me go. I will do anything for you beside this for my whole life. I beg of you!" she cried out.

Ian kneels down beside her as he shushes her while removing her fallen hair. He glances at her clothing, and notices how shaped her body was. It made his inside tingles.

"Anything but this," he asked while his eyes were glued to her chest.

The maid madly nods her head, "Anything but this. Please!"

Ian chuckles at her, "Why? Maybe if you tell me the reasons, I might consider it."

The maid smiles in hope. As she begged him, she told him about the promise she made with her lover. They were going to get married soon. They were childhood sweethearts, and he meant the world to her.

Ian nods his head, "What a sweet story... But, if you disobey my order, I could erase your whole family just from a few words you know."

She nods her head, "I understand young master. That is why, I'm begging you like this. Please, spare me. Anything but this. Please!"

He patted her shoulder as he reassured her, "Alright. I'll reconsider it but only under one condition."

She blinks at him, "Please do tell. This one will do what she can to fulfill it."

He smirks at her, "If you can kill someone right here, right now. I'll let you go."

The maids heart froze from his words. Kill someone? She was so shocked out of her wits she couldn't give him an answer. Her words tumbled out of her mouth. Ian dust off the hair on her shoulder as he gazes into her eyes.

"So? Can you or can you not do it?" he asked with the most innocent face.

"I... I... Y-young master... I..."

His smile slowly widened as he said, "You can't? You can't, right. Hmm, that's too bad."

Her whole body went cold the moment she felt his hand grab her collar. His face was close to hers as he whispered, "That's too bad. Little maid, just blame yourself for your bad luck of being here when I'm in such a bad mood."

As though the life was sucked out of her, the maid couldn't say anything. Ian pulls away, with his hand still gripping on her collar. He licks his lips as he gazes into her terrified eyes.

Like a hungry animal, he rips her clothing off her leaving just her undergarments. The maid ran to the door, but it was locked. She bangs on the door for help, but no one came. A cold slithering hand lands on her shoulders. Like a shadow, she was pulled away from the door.

Her whole world shatters like glass. Her scream died out like the wind. The last thing she saw before the world turned upside was a pair of mad ravenous eyes that devoured her.
