CHAPTER FOUR : PRETENDER

EAST DUKE MANSION

RUDOLPH POV

Staring at the beautiful angel before me I can't help but adore her, she is my joy, my life and I would not let go of her no matter what even though that bitch has decided to take her own best friend's place as my wife and to think that as a Duke I can't have more than one wife as she would be my Duchess, but then I will only focus and love my angel alone' I thought smiling as I walk up to her.

"Lizzy love let's go back to the room I want to worship and ravish you again, you know I can't get enough of you" I said kissing her neck from behind as I wrapped my hand around her waist and used my other hand to stroke her beautiful face.

"Oh please we just left the bedroom, I'm exhausted and you know I still need the fruits to regain some energy and to be able to match your strength you're something else you never change up till now" she said gently removing my hand from her waist so that she could turn around and face me, she had a pleading look but I could see that I've turned her on but she still needs to rest as I dealt with her sweetly last night and this morning I bet she must be sore even though she couldn't match my energy like Mandy but I still adore her besides Mandy is a slut she is well versed in that and I should not be thinking about that witch nor compare her with my love.

"Fine, love anything for you and as for the fruits..." "Greetings to you milord and lady Elizabeth, here are the fruits they are fresh just as you requested I made sure to buy the best" Stephanie said cutting me off as she bowed slightly and gave the fruits to Lola Elizabeth's personal maid who walked in with her into the room "Stephanie you still lack manners like your mother, now listen to me very well don't you ever cut me off ever again else I will beat you up, now get out of my sight fool" I said annoyed, she really had the ability to annoy me with this aura of hers that tries to make one accept or like her and it felt powerful too, she is a witch and she irritates me.

Lizzy rubbed my chest calming me down i couldn't help but wonder how lovely she had always been even when she could only be a mistress because of her friend and her daughter yet she cared for them and respected them all these years not minding what her mother did,

she wouldn't let me punish that stupid girl or her mum whenever she is around and I wonder how can someone be kind like this "Lizzy let's go to the paint room i would love to paint with you around since you can't paint anymore at least you will accompany me" i said and took her away after glaring at that cursed witch's retreating figure walking out of the door. 'it's a good thing that they lived at the left wing of the mansion at least I would not be seeing her often because she irritates me' I thought as I walked through the stairs with Elizabeth beside me.

ELIZABETH POV

I can't help but glare at that little brat who wouldn't stop showing up before me. I feel like stabbing her to death myself but I would have to control my anger as I've done for the past 20 years.

Look at how i'm calming him down all thanks to that naive friend of mine who told me his likes, dislikes and how to calm him down and turn him on as well due to her blind trust towards me and with my cunning nature i have succeeded in my plans.

Thinking about the paint room it disturbs me knowing that i can't paint well but Mandy could and Rudolph loves to paint , i have always done my best not to paint saying that Mandy broke my hand yet he still drags me to the paint room telling me to accompany him but actually persuaded me to practice because he wants me to continue to paint lovely portraits as the one I gifted him of which I am not the one that did it and the smell of those paints are irritating I don't even know why madeline would paint that.

On reaching the room we walked in the smell hits my nose and I covered my nose with my hand it is becoming more unbearable these years and my physician said I shouldn't come in contact with paints else I would keep getting affected by it and it is really affecting me for the past twenty years and if I should tell Rudolph he might suspect me and want to know more "Lizzy are you alright why are covering your nose and looking haggard" he asked worriedly "I am not feeling well I'm having a head ache I need to rest" I said trying to cover up I held my head with the other hand "but you're covering your nose as well is there any issue" argh this man should not be noticing all these "I am having a running nose as well especially when I have a headache" I lied again but he looked confused "how come you never had a running nose all these years when you had a headache or did I miss something" he asked puzzled "you missed nothing at all I need to go back to my room and rest now and also tell Lola to get my physician I'm sorry that I can't accompany you today" I said and he nodded "fine take care of yourself okay" he said and I walked away immediately heaving a huge sigh I need to find a solution to this soonest I can't keep on living like this.
