30. Obsession Kane

"What happened in the palace?" Claude asked fearfully.

The guards there remained silent, not answering anything, but it was clear that this was because of Claude, because of the false accusations against him that had angered Kane.

Kane liked him, he was obsessed with him.

****

In the palace, there was only destruction. Kane and Xavier fought after they both defeated Xavion and severely injured him.

On one side, Kane wanted to attack the King for tormenting Claude, and on the other side, Xavier wanted to protect his father, the King.

Xavier, of course, didn't want his father to get hurt, but it was different with Kane.

He was too consumed by his emotions, attacking people there brutally. Until Xavier struggled to protect them, including his father.

Kane's power rose even stronger, and he even managed to freeze the entire area.

Kane didn't care about the humanity he used to care about, he only cared about Claude. He also didn't care about his status as a prince; his behavior this time labeled Kane as a villain. His father was even angry and threatened to revoke Kane's status if he continued to attack.

When Kane successfully stabbed the King in the stomach, Kane felt satisfied.

****

After achieving satisfaction and after destroying his own palace, Kane moved to where Claude was.

Claude was already waiting for him on the bed, watching his mother, Xavion, who was already dead. "Why did you cause this destruction?" Claude asked, his hands trembling.

"For you, I can do anything," Kane said emphatically. His blood-red eyes held anger.

"You belong to me, don't hesitate to ask anything of me, even to kill them, you belong to me," Kane murmured repeatedly.

As Kane was talking to Claude, suddenly someone appeared in front of him. Kane growled; it was a high-level healer, an old man with white hair. Healer from the tower. But Kane didn't invite him, so why did the healer come here?

Kane displayed his power. Like a wild animal, he threatened anyone who came for Claude.

"He will take the concubine's body, Xavion's mother, and he is on your side, one of the King's opponents," whispered his private guard.

"I will also try to examine him; he has undergone a perfect resurrection," said the female healer there, pointing at Claude.

"Okay, but gently and don't be flirtatious," Kane hugged Claude possessively, even when the healer was there treating Claude. Kane didn't want his possession to be touched by others, only he could touch Claude, only him. He had sacrificed for Claude, of course, he had to get Claude entirely.

"Oh, this child," muttered the old healer, feeling tired. She continued to treat Claude, her hands touching Claude's wrist, but soon Kane bit her.

"Check from a distance," Kane commanded.

"I will check his pulse, Prince, so stop behaving like a child!" the healer shouted, emotional.

Kane's two hands were immediately held by his guards. The guard then instructed the healer to examine Claude.

"Ugh, my goodness!" Kane continued to rebel. Unwilling to accept Claude's body being touched.

"Prince, be patient," said the guard.

"After this, move him to my room. What's with keeping him in a place like this? He belongs to me, and let him sleep in my room, treat him until he recovers, treat him from afar," Kane ordered. He immediately got off the bed where Claude was. Instructing his guard to take Claude, but soon Kane pushed his guard's body.

"I forgot, you shouldn't touch him," Kane said as he lifted Claude's body.

"Let's wipe your body." Kane carried Claude's body to his room because now Claude was in the guest room, and this house belonged to Kane.

The healer there shuddered. Honestly, Kane's aura was the most different from other princes, even the prince of darkness like Xavion didn't have a psychopathic aura like Kane. Kane seemed obsessed with Claude.

"Why?" the guard asked.

"He's terrifying," replied the healer.

"He treats Rosel's child like a doll, isn't this unacceptable?" he said again.

"Just watch him, make sure he doesn't kill his doll," replied the healer.

****

The next day, Claude felt a strong obsession from Kane. While Claude was still asleep, Kane boldly did unexpected things to his body. Although Claude's eyes were closed, Claude could feel it.

"My Claude... you are so beautiful... more than anything, I really like these red lips, you don't need to wake up, you are so charming, especially when you wake up," Kane praised as he wiped Claude's face with a warm towel. Kane locked his room door.

In the room now, Kane was alone with Claude. He sat Claude's body on a bench like a Barbie doll, then gently brushed Claude's curly hair. Kane then moved on to touch Claude's lips, leaning his face towards those lips, but soon he moved his face away and switched to kissing Claude's neck.

"Ah~ finally, I can smell your scent again, like Lavender flowers," Kane said excitedly.

Claude tried to open his eyes, his hands moved.

"Finally, you wake up, I made this for you, look." With empty hands, Kane exerted his power, creating a music box from crystal elements and giving it to Claude.

Claude touched the music box. He still hadn't realized that Kane was in front of him. Until suddenly Kane touched Claude's cheeks and asked,

"Do you like it?"

Claude's eyes widened, memories of the real Claude attacked his brain. Claude saw a shadow that Kane would stab him. "Aaaa! Stay away, you'll kill me, stay away!" Claude screamed in trauma. Claude closed his eyes in fear.

"Who's going to kill you? No one, I love you so much, how could I kill my love? I'm not crazy, I won't kill the person I love unless you can't be mine, hahahaha," Kane said eerily.

Claude's body trembled. 'Why do I feel scared? Yesterday was fine, but what is this feeling? I feel weak-hearted like the original Claude's nature.'

"Well, Claude... because you're afraid I'll kill you, how about you belong to me, and I'll always protect you, I won't kill you if you accept me, how about it?" Kane offered, sounding promising, but Claude still shook his head.

"But stay away from my two stupid brothers, I can protect you." His condition.

"Accept you? What are we talking about?" Claude asked, not understanding.

"The future," Kane explained.

"Our future...," Kane explained again.

"Just say you love me, and I will protect you."

"No!" Claude shook his head. Claude tried to get up, but Kane suddenly hugged him and moved him to another place. He showed destruction in the palace, and it was his doing.

"This is all for you. I heard from Xavion's mouth that he slandered you before I made him suffer, am I good? Destroying my own family for you," Kane said.

Destruction was not what Claude wanted.

"You will be a fugitive, why did you do this?" Claude asked weakly.

"For you."

"You're insane." Claude gulped his saliva.

"I am crazy because of you, my dearest. Now, you can not run from me, forever!"

Kane tied Claude's hand with a rope which had been laced with his mana. The rope was also bound with Kane's hand.

"This rope is called with "Soul Binding." Do not ever try to run from me again, my precious."
