A Tale of Chase and Love s1

She put it into her mouth and it melted. This time, however, it did not taste sweet but bitter. She also had the feeling that a cockroach was in her mouth.

She had the urge to retch but it was at this moment that Long Ren sealed her lips so she couldn’t open it say less of retching. Her eyes widened in surprise and anxiousness.

She wanted to raise her hands but could not. The other parts of her body also felt heavy.

“What did you feed me?” Theresa asked him telepathically in fright.

Seeing this, Long Ren smiled brightly and adjusted some few strands of stray hair back to their place.

“Well… I fed you.. body numbing and slacking pills. You’ll thank me later.” he said before placing his feet on the floor. He stood up and walked to her.

“You… what do you want to do?” she asked telepathically, while trying to command her body to do something all to no avail.

“What do you think mistress, that I’ll do to you for causing me great losses today?” he asked with mean eyes that had turned purple.

“Long Ren…” she couldn’t continue her telepathy because she could see her hands and legs twisting on their own and cracking.

Long Ren went back to his former position on the table and entered into meditation forgetting about Theresa.

30 minutes later.

Theresa’s eyes are still wide open from shock; not daring to blink. Just a while ago she was in perfect shape but now, apart from her head and neck, all other parts of her body was a mess.

Her shoes had long been ripped apart. Her bones were completely in disorder twisted in a very scary manner. Long Ren finally opened his eyes and exhaled lightly.

“Not bad!” he muttered.

“Not bad? Long Ren, how dare you do this to me? I am your mistress,” she ranted telepathically.

“Eish! My ears hurt. Also, point of correction… you are just my temporary mistress.” he corrected, covering both of his ears.

“Long Ren, you have to fix me.” she ordered.

“Why? Give me 10 reasons why I should fix you except for the fact that you are my temporary mistress,” he said after removing his hands from his ears and placing them on his knees.

“You..” Theresa had nothing to say in reply.

“Long Ren… please… I am sorry. I am saying this from the bottom of my heart please…” she was interrupted by him.

“You don’t have a heart. Mistress, my tears are very precious but you treated them like sand. Mistress, it hurts to know that your master only views you as a money bank.” he spoke with intense anger in his voice.

“Although I have accepted you as my mistress, it’s only temporary. You are so selfish. You only care what you can get from others.” he preached but then Theresa cried in frustration.

“What about you? Aren’t you also a proud being?” she thundered but this made him angrier.

“Mistress, do you believe that I’ll whip your shapeless body if you say one more word?” he asked while clenching his teeth.

“I am your mistress… I… I just… I admit that I’m selfish. But I’m only so because I’ve got no one to rely on. Your the second person I met since I was summoned here and I can’t help being clingy. Also, I am a feared heiress back in my world!”

“I don’t care what you were back home but this is Luo Ye. A place where the strong rule. If you continue with this behavior unless you want the emperor to rape you and give you riches and protection, you will die.” he warned.

“Long Ren, please turn me back to normal. I beg of you.” she pleaded with tears falling down her face.

“Mistress, I know you roughly well by now. You never learn and never fulfill your promises.” said Long Ren as he shook his head.

“Long Ren, I am willing to let you be my master for the time that you train me. I’ll accept any condition you give me. Please, just turn me back.” she cried.

“Fine!” he released the numbing spell and at once, what greeted Theresa was excruciating pain from all parts of her body but she couldn’t yell either.

“If you are still awake by the time I return, then… fine! I am not my father.” he suddenly changed his mind and squatted.

Then after blindfolding her, he began remolding her bones bit by bit with caution until she was finally able to regain her usual shape as a female.

Theresa’s tears continued to flow and she gritted her teeth in anguish.

“Mistress, sometimes, I can’t accept the fact that I’m bound to a powerless mistress like you,” he said telepathically.

“Other FL’s are much luckier than me. I’m the only one facing this situation.” Theresa replied to him in English telepathically.

Though he didn’t understand what she was saying; he did not bother to ask. He continued giving finishing touches to his work and finally sighed. He got up, walked to the table and then sat with his eyes closed.

“Mistress, don’t view me as evil. While my actions are a bit overboard sometimes, I want you to know that the contract will not let me take your life easily. If I do accidentally kill you, I’d be committing a great sin which will result in me being stripped of all my cultivation. I don’t want that to happen. You also don’t want to lose you cheap head when you haven’t fulfilled the mission Han Fei Fei gave to you, right?” Long Ren was interrupted by her sudden shout. He opened his eyes in amazement.

“Wow! It seems going to the extreme, works for you mistress.” he thought.

“Why are you shouting?” he asked.

He also nearly fell from the table when he saw her remove the blindfold by herself. She rose up from the ground, her eyes had changed color to red.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“That’s fast. I knew there was a curse on you but also didn’t expect it to be so powerful,” he exclaimed.

“Long Ren!” Theresa yelled.

“Mistress…” he replied, uncertain of her next action.

He was wasn’t really scared of her. He just wanted to make sure that the evil curse on her did not harm Theresa.

Yes a moment ago, he was very angry at her but now, it seems he sill cares a little about her. After all, she is his mistress- even if it’s only temporary.

Consulting his Grandpa again is needed for sure. With that in mind, he disappeared. Theresa began to roar in anger seeing that the object of her anger had disappeared.

She turned around and walked towards the door. She struggled hard to take it down but it did not work due to Long Ren’s seal.

50 minutes later.

Long Ren appeared with a cauldron clutched in his left hand, and the man that had earlier been sent away on his journey in search of a disciple. That ‘poor’ red-haired man was actually Doctor Fu Jin.

“Sir, what can be done about her?” Long Ren asked in worry as he stared at Theresa who had long fainted.

Doctor Fu touched his beardless chin and smiled.

“It’s very easy,” he muttered.

Author note: If you are wondering why Theresa has a curse, it’s because of the instabilty of the contract. Both sides are unwilling to work together. Hence it produced a dark qi inside Theresa. If not treated properly…. things would be super bad.
