Married To The Cursed Lycan King by JaneChunli
Chapter 12

Chapter 12 

Lee Otto Fraser’s Pov: 

“Have a bite first,” I gestured to the food she placed there. She didn’t move an inch or moved a muscle, she only gaped at me and the look in her eyes was laced with surprise. From the way her eyes remained fixated on me told me she was stunned and filled with questions. I saw her bit on her lower l*p, harboring a pale look on her face. Her face had been without liveliness since she walked into my house. Even at her father’s house, her eyes and face were devoid of life. Her cheeks looked flustered and her hair tied into a messy bun. The night dress she was putting on looked woven and homespun. 

And to top it all. She was extremely skinny. His n*eckbone was very evident and the bones down to the hollow of her throat was also visible. Her cheekbones also popped out but in a subtle manner. 

“Go on,” I urged. Waiting for her reaction like my three previous wives. Being married thrice, I have mastered women. Everything that it is to know about women. People say women are difficult to understand or predict but it wasn’t for me. Predicting them was the easiest thing for me especially when they make it obvious to predict them. 

My butler beside her let out a chuckle as she stood there, unmoved and she never blinked when she took it upon herself to start a staring duel with me. “I can have a bite first,” the elderly woman picked up a spoon, ready to dig into my food. 

“Not you. Her,” I halted her hand and signaled to the woman who is my wife to take the first bite. Initially, I expected her to throw tantrums like my first and second wife. 

I was expecting her to ask questions like my previous wives did. “What kind of husband demands his wife to eat first from the plate I used in serving him?” 

“Someone like me.” I responded. Watching the way she was frowning at me. 

“Why? You don’t trust your wife or what?” 

My second wife really did throw a few tantrums before giving in. 

“Why would you ask such a thing?” My second wife queried. A surprised look mixed with annoyance. “You think I’d do something to you? Afraid I might be after your life or what?” 

“I don’t take chances. And weren’t you after it from the start?” The look on her face changed. Her face turned pale blue and her cheek flushed when I uttered those words. 

She stuttered while seeing it clearly from her pose and the way her eyes darted around swiftly but never rested on me. I saw her b*dy start to twitch and she fiddled her fingers nervously. When her voice came, it faltered from time to time. 

“Why would I be after your life?” Her eyes worked effortlessly from side to side until they finally rested on me. A little grunt escaped under my breath when she asked that. I knew why her father gave her to me and the deal they made among themselves.

Chapter 12 

“Do you think this house wouldn’t contain monitoring stuff?” I narrowed my gaze at the tiny subtle. dots on my dining area also down the hallway that led to the kitchen. “There was also one in the kitchen.” 

She gaped. Her eyes were stricken with fear. 

“Here,” I picked a spoon from my side and scooped a quantity from the dish she laid on my plate. She flinched when I shoved the food in her direction. Instead of eating it, she suddenly grabbed my spoon and placed it back on the plates. Grabbing my plates, ready to zoom off. 

“I realized it is too salty, I will make you something better.” 

I was yanked back to the present when the woman before me lowered and picked a spoon and gently took a spoonful of my food and shoved it into her mouth. Honestly I was puzzled, she didn’t utter a word and simply obeyed my words neither did she try to get into a fight with me. 

All of my years being married to three consecutive women from the four clans, this is my first time seeing and having a woman make me realize that women aren’t the open book that are easy to read or understand. The woman before me though quiet, had an intriguing demeanor about her. 

She chewed on the food in her mouth and returned her gaze to me. If I wasn’t mistaken, her eyes were glassy when she looked at me. Was she crying? Did I go overboard by asking her to have a bite first? With my three previous wives, it was impossible to trust another woman. 

“You can leave now,” I ordered, watching her glassy eyes. Sometimes it made me wonder what kind of woman she was or the kind of life she led. The glass cup came tumbling from the table to the ground when she whirled away from me. In a swift movement, her b*dy came in contact with the cup and it fell before I could even catch it. 

“I’m sorry,” she gasped and immediately dropped to her knees to pick the ruins of the glass with her bare hands. “It was an accident, forgive me.” 

I quickly caught her hand from reaching the pieces. “What are you doing?” My brows were drawn together in question and wonder. If I hadn’t stopped her, was she going to pick it up with her hand? At this point I couldn’t differentiate if this was actually how she behaves or pretending, only to have her unmask herself and show her true colors. 

“Cleaning it up,” she replied. “I’m sorry.” 

I figured the word ‘sorry‘ was forever stuck in her mouth. She wouldn’t go a day without saying 

that. 

“That’s not your job to do,” I held her hand and raised my head to look at Malena who was puzzled and probably startled. “Get one of the maids to clean up this mess.” 

“Yes sir.” She left. 

“I created this mess so let me clean it up.” She insisted when she tried to free her hand in my grip.

Chapter 12 

“And I said this isn’t your job and get up from there.” Pulled her way from there. I tried to yank her away from the shattered glass cup but then she winced and moaned when I realized a sheet of glass. got stuck in her knee. 

“Sit put,” I pulled her up to her feet and set her on one of the dining chairs. She was very light like a feather. I turned to Malena who had returned with a maid. “Clean this up 

I told the maid and looked at my wife who was still wincing in pain. 

“Hold still.”
