The Devil's Cursed Witch novel Chapter 483

After having a meal together, Morpheus decided to leave.

"Where are you going?" Ember asked.

"I need to stretch my wings. I am a beast bird and you can't expect me to continue to be in one place," Morpheus answered as he looked eager to go away. "I would be around, don't worry."

Ember looked at Draven, who assured him to let him go.

"Alright," Ember said and watched Morpheus leave.

Once he was gone, Ember spoke while looking towards the window from where Morpheus was gone, "Draven, why do I feel like he just wants to stay away from me? He doesn't show it, but I can feel it." She turned to look at him, "Am I wrong to feel this way?"

Draven had allowed Morhpheus to leave as he could see Morpheus needed to go away from Ember after staying around for long. Though he was getting used to her scent now, it would still take a time till he could withstand it completely.

But he wondered till how long he could keep it from Ember that Morpheus is affected by bond pull unlike her, who feels nothing. It was a matter between two mates, so he was sure sooner or later these two would come to terms over the truth between them.

"Today he stayed with you and even listened to what you said even without you ordering him to do anything, that means he cares and values you as his mate," Draven spoke, "It's a new dynamics for him and something he and even you have not expected so it might take him time to meld in."

She hummed as if trying to process Draven's words. "I just want him to know that he has a family now and is no longer alone. I want him to be happy, instead of living a lonely life."

"He will," Draven assured and observed her worried face. Something came to his mind and he said, "You should also know that the bond you share with him is different from the bond you share with me. It won't work the same way it works for us."

Ember felt puzzled but said, "I truly don't know how it works. Today I got to know one aspect that he is compelled to follow my orders, but it can't go like this. I can't always force him to do things. I truly need to understand how this bond works so I might find a way for us."

Draven simply hummed, and said, "I have to leave to check the border with the Human clan."

"Anything happened after the last time they sneaked inside the kingdom?" Ember asked.

"I am not sure, but it seems like something is going on."
