Chapter 150 - Misunderstandings (1/2)
Bai Lei clenches his fist as he turns to watch Nova storm out of the room. He lifts his hand and rubs his face in frustration. He knew he just messed up but it wasn't what she was thinking! As soon as he heard her say that she had been with others...
His mind instantly started picturing her with other men... them touching her, kissing her and doing other things! He was completely absorbed by his thoughts! He looks back down at the knife between his legs with a bitter smile.
He doesn't think less of her okay? He was mad with jealousy! He sighs in regret as he calls out ”Ren” Ren suddenly appears kneeling beside him as he says ”Here” Bai Lei looks to his bald Shadow guard and sighs again as he says ”Follow her and keep her safe. Fail me again...”
Ren quickly lowers his head as he says ”This servant knows. I won't disappoint Master again!” Bai Lei frowns at him and waves him off as he turns back to the door Nova left out of. He wants to follow her and explain to her but he saw the look she gave him.
She needs time to cool off before he tries to explain himself and why he acted like that. He wasn't disgusted with her, if anything, he wanted to take her more than ever! He reaches out and pulls the small blade out of the seat with a slight tug. His eyes flash again before a dark smirk appears on his sexy lips. He won't deny it, he found it a little hot when she came at him like that.

I storm out of the room and keep walking until I get to the palace gates. Little Bun tucks himself close to my neck as I come to a stop. The guards instantly recognize me and refuse to let me leave. I try to keep my irritation in check as I say ”Move, I want to go for a walk.”
The guards look to each other before turning to me and saying ”The King has given a command that no woman is allowed to leave, especially you.” I grit my teeth in anger and go to step forward when I hear Ren say ”Allow her to leave.”
I turn to find Ren right behind me with a serious look on his face. The guards bow and move out of the way so I turn around and leave without another word. Bai Lei probably told him to follow me... whatever. As long as I can just get out of this stuffy palace.
All I do is stay in and cultivate, eat, and sleep! I'm gonna end up going crazy... plus, I needed to blow off some steam. I can't believe he actually got upset that I wasn't a virgin! Does he think less of me now because of it?
I take a deep breath and release it to help with my building anger but it doesn't work. 'It doesn't work because your feelings are hurt dumbass...' What should I expect! This was like the past where men and women are viewed differently and held to different standards but what was really bothering me was thinking about HIM again.
I clench my teeth and walk down the nearly empty street as I try not to think about that... Monster, but my thoughts are quickly diverted when I see signs of struggles on the surrounding buildings. I look around and see that only men are out and about but even they scurry from building to building like mice.
My mood further drops when I think back to the evil men from the Under Realm. These streets used to be filled with laughter and bargains. Shops selling merchandise and delicious food but now everything was bare and quiet. Somehow this just makes my mood even worse.
I kick at a stone on the street before three pairs of feet appear in front of me. I stop and look up to find three men from the Under Realm looking at me from head to toe with open desire. I step back and glare at the men in front of me. They were all covered in the same blood-red markings, identical to the ones on my right arm.
