Chapter 255: I can offer you, anything
As Kaeso wrestled with his thoughts, contemplating the potential significance of the bracelets, Johana, ever curious and compassionate, ventured into the depths of the dungeon. She emerged with Jaegar, providing him respite from the damp confines and offering a meal befitting his station.
Jaegar, displaying no shame and an air of contempt, devoured the food without saying a word, his focus resolute on the greater game at play. He didn\'t care about their schemes against him.
Unbeknownst to Kaeso and Johana, Jaegar\'s encounter with the priestess had left an indelible mark on the bracelets. A subtle crack had formed, imperceptible to the casual observer.
Right after the old lady left, he felt a faint loosening of the bracelet\'s grip. The cracks, minute but significant, had appeared after the priestess\'s touch, a consequence of the clash between the ancient relics and her potent magic. Find your next read on m_v l|e-NovelBin.net
In the silent corridors of the estate, Jaegar bided his time patiently, awaiting the opportune moment when the cracks might expand, freeing him from the mystical shackles. The priestess\'s magical probing had revealed the corrosion wrought by the chaos power embedded within the bracelets.
Jaegar, grateful for the unexpected turn of events, harbored hope that the fractures would evolve, releasing the dormant power that lay within. The full extent of this liberation was yet unclear, but Jaegar sensed a glimmer of change, a subtle shift that hinted at the impending transformation of his fate.
Johana, the epitome of mature allure, sat gracefully across from Jaegar, her eyes dancing with a provocative glint. Jaegar, clad in nothing but a loincloth, exuded a primal masculinity that seemed to captivate her gaze, drawing it hungrily over every inch of his sculpted physique—from his well-defined abs to his chiselled face and further down to areas that hinted at his untamed strength.
As her lustful eyes lingered on him, Johana, with an air of confident sensuality, broke the silence. "Jaegar, is it?" Her voice was a sultry melody, weaving through the air like a seductive whisper.
Jaegar, ever observant, analyzed the woman before him—her posture, the allure in her eyes, the way her dress accentuated every curve. Johana embodied a mature beauty, her tangerine hair cascading over her shoulders, her bosom ample, and her thighs possessing a certain undeniable allure.
Johana, catching Jaegar\'s gaze lingering on her, couldn\'t help but revel in the attention. "You know, I could take your head for looking at me like that," she teased, her lips forming a playful smile.
Jaegar, unyielding and defiant, only scoffed in response. "Then do it."
Undeterred, Johana continued her pursuit of unravelling the mystery that was Jaegar. "Do you have a last name?" she inquired, her voice taking on a more probing tone. Wondering he might be a noble from some other land.
Jaegar, growing impatient with the interrogation, retorted, "Can you stop with the interrogation and start talking about the reason you brought me here?"
Johana, intrigued by Jaegar\'s delinquent demeanour and unyielding arrogance, rose from her seat, closing the distance between them. She stood so close that her breath brushed against his chest, her lips mere inches from his. "Patience, Jaegar," Johana whispered, her voice dripping with a mix of seduction and challenge.
Johana, almost as tall as Jaegar, looked up at him with a predatory gleam in her eyes, ready to explore the uncharted territories of his untamed spirit.
Johana\'s confident demeanour held a magnetic allure as she stood close to Jaegar, her lips dangerously close to his. There was an unspoken tension in the air, a palpable exchange of energy between the defiant slave and the alluring mistress.
Ignoring Jaegar\'s defiance, Johana took a step back, circling him as she continued her scrutiny. "You\'re an intriguing one, Jaegar," she purred, her voice laced with a seductive undertone. "But let\'s cut to the chase. I brought you here because I just wanted to talk to you."
Jaegar, still unyielding, raised an eyebrow. "Okay?"
Johana\'s lips curled into a cunning smile as she circled back to face him. "I believe you know my husband, Kaeso."
"The man who locked me in these chains, yes, I know," he said as he raised his wrist, chains clinking with the movement. "What about him?"
Johana\'s eyes narrowed; her gaze was intense. "I know he has wronged you, Jaegar," she said softly, her voice filled with a mixture of sympathy and determination. "But I also know that revenge will only bring you temporary satisfaction. There is another way."
Jaegar\'s expression hardened, his defiance still evident. "And what way would that be?" he asked, his voice tinged with scepticism.
Johana took a step closer to him, her voice barely above a whisper. "Freedom," she said, her words carrying a weight of promise.
"I can help you escape these chains and find a life beyond this captivity. All I ask in return is your loyalty."
Johana\'s laughter echoed through the room. "I can offer you more than just survival in the arena. I can give you anything you want."
The proposition hung in the air, tantalizing and tempting. Jaegar, despite his rugged exterior, felt a spark of interest. Johana, sensing his internal struggle, approached him once again, her fingers gently tracing the contours of his strong jaw.
"Consider it, Jaegar," she whispered, her voice an intoxicating melody. "A partnership between us could be mutually beneficial. There\'s a world beyond these dungeons, and I can open the door for you."
The room held a charged silence as Jaegar contemplated the unexpected offer, his gaze locking with Johana\'s. The allure of freedom and a chance to transcend his current fate were propositions that stirred something deep within him. The game was set, and the pieces were in motion for a dance that could change the course of both their destinies.
