Slave to the Darkness 10 10 Bath Time

"Thank you, Master Cedric." She kisses his cheek and blushes. Yuki slowly got off Cedric and got to the edge of the bed. Holding on the bedpost Yuki stands up at a slower pace then she usually moves at. 'The blood bond has taken my normal strength away.' She begins to walk to the bathroom but stumbles on a shirt left on the ground.

Cedric gets out of bed behind Yuki and he catches her as she stumbles. "I'll help you get to the bathroom." Without waiting for a reply he picks her up and carries her the rest of the way. Yuki wrapped her arms around Cedric's neck. He places her gently in the tub and starts to fill in with water. "I'm going to shower. Take your time in the bath." He kisses the top of her head and hops into the clear glass shower.

Yuki lays in the tub staring at Cedric. 'His body is well sculpted.' Her eyes traced down from his neck down to his legs. Her eyes lingered at his abs and she was slightly smiling. 'He could've been a model if not for being an immortal. Living in the shadows is a blessing and a curse.' Yuki rests her head on her arms that she folded on the side of the tub. 'I need to figure out what is mixed into his blood. There's the magic for being a warlock I can taste that but there definitely something else. I can feel the power it's giving me and I'm intoxicated.' Her body involuntarily shivers. She hears Cedric say "Like what you see?" She gets flustered, sits up and turns off the water then submerges under the water surface in embarrassment.

Cedric could feel her gaze on him as he turned the water on and it ran down his body. He takes his hands and runs them both through his hair. Not looking at her he says, "Like what you see?" He hears her turn off the water and hears the satisfying splash. 'So silly. She is the perfect slave for me but there is the issue with her losing control. Seems like the blood bond is the cause of it. Hopeful what she said is true and that it'll happen only once more. Eating the chocolates are usually a last resort, that I don't like using. That fucking wolf demon must be so pleased I'm finally giving in and eating them.' He finished washing and rinsing his body off. He walked to the tub and pulled Yuki out of the water. "If you're not going to wash yourself I will do it for you."

Trying to calm her racing heart she stayed under the water. Her heart finally calmed down only for her to be pulled out from the tub. Quickly Yuki grabbed onto Cedric's neck. "Sorry Master Cedric I didn't mean to stare but you are so handsome. So when you caught me staring and I got embarrassed. I'll wash up now." Her face was buried into his neck. 'I'm starting to feel the desire for his blood leaning on him like this.' Her lips lightly touch the nape of his neck. 'My craving for him is too abnormal. Even if I had been without proper substance for so long and the blood bond. Why is there wolf demon's blood mixed in his blood? It doesn't taste like it's temporarily added. Is that what is driving me want more?'

He looks down at Yuki in his arms. "I'll put you down, so wash up." He lowers her down in the tub and leaves the bathroom. While drying himself off he starts to cast the spell to make a chain appear and be bolted to the ground. After the spell he casts he walks up to the chain and looks at the cuff. 'No cross is etched.' he casts the spell to etch a cross into the cuff and then fortifies the chain and cuff with more magic to ensure she won't be able to break free. He took a seat in the chair and continued reading his book from earlier. Forgetting about the time.
