Cosmic Ruler - Chapter 306

Chapter 306: Astral Maiden VI

Shona trembled but forced herself to speak. “The Augustus family… they’ll know. And when they do, you’ll regret crossing them.”

Aiden raised a brow, amused at her attempt to invoke fear. “The Augustus family? Oh, I’m quite aware of them. But they’re not my concern—at least, not yet. My interest is in the real Lirael, not you.”

He took a step back, releasing her from his grasp, allowing her to stumble slightly as she regained her balance. “I suppose the ministers thought replacing the princess would keep her from seeking Augustus’s help. A clever move, but a futile one.”

Shona’s eyes widened as she realized the depth of his understanding. She had been placed in the palace by the ministers to ensure Lirael couldn’t reach out for her family’s support, keeping her bound to the court’s control. But now, Aiden knew everything, and he had the upper hand.

“What are you going to do with me?” she asked, her voice small but filled with lingering defiance.

Aiden smiled, a slow, deliberate expression that sent a chill down her spine. “That depends on you, Shona. You can either be useful to me… or you can disappear, like so many others who have tried to stand in my way.”

The room seemed to grow darker as his words sank in, the weight of his power pressing down on her.

“You choose.”

Shona swallowed, realizing that her fate now rested in Aiden’s hands.

“Will you let me live?” she asked, trembling.

“I might, if you sign this,” Aiden said, laying out a soul slave contract. Shona trembled at the sight of it. The contract ensured that if she signed it, she would be under Aiden’s complete control, and he could end her life with just a thought.

Shona’s hands trembled violently as she stared at the soul slave contract laid out before her. The parchment seemed to pulse with a sinister energy, as though it were alive, waiting to bind her to Aiden’s will. Her heart raced, knowing that the moment her blood touched the contract, her very soul would belong to him. Aiden would have the power to control her every action, even snuff out her life with a mere thought.

“This…” she began, her voice faltering under the weight of the choice before her.

Aiden’s gaze was as cold as ice, his voice devoid of emotion as he interrupted her hesitation. “This… or your death. You choose, Shona.”

His words hung in the air like a blade over her neck. Shona could feel the raw, unyielding power behind them. She knew Aiden wasn’t bluffing; he could end her life in an instant if she refused. The fear of death clawed at her insides, and her mind raced. She had no options left—no escape, no tricks up her sleeve. Signing the contract was her only way to survive, even if it meant losing her freedom forever.

Swallowing hard, Shona nodded weakly, her eyes never leaving Aiden’s. She bit down on her finger, drawing blood from her fingertip. The droplet of crimson slowly slid down her hand, and as she hesitantly reached toward the contract, time seemed to slow.

With one final glance at Aiden, who stood unmoving, his expression unreadable, she let the blood drip onto the contract.

The moment her blood touched the parchment, the air in the room shifted. A dark energy surged from the contract, wrapping itself around Shona like invisible chains. She gasped, feeling the weight of the contract settle over her very soul. Aiden’s control was instant, his presence sinking deep into her mind like cold iron. She could feel his power entwining with her essence, leaving no doubt that her life now belonged to him.

Aiden’s eyes glinted with satisfaction. “Good. You’ve made the right choice.”

Shona collapsed to her knees, breathing heavily, the realization of what she had done crashing over her. She had signed away her soul, her autonomy—everything. Now, she was nothing more than a puppet in Aiden’s grand design.

Aiden looked down at her, his expression softening, though there was still an undeniable undercurrent of dominance in his gaze. “Now, Shona, you will serve me without question. And in return, I will grant you protection… for as long as you remain useful.”

Shona, still shaking from the experience, could only nod in silence. Her fate was sealed.

“Okay, now strip, I liked to see , your laws more clearly” Aiden coming near her raised her chin as he kissed her lips, as he began to dual cultivate with her to get his hands on the law of her with her own unique comprehension.

Shona looked at him as she let her new master do whatever he wants.

After many hours, Aiden looked at Shona under him as he said ” go back and now act as my mole in their plans” He said as Shon nodded and began to sit up, Aiden looked at her as he laid on bed and said “first clean it and then leave”

She paused as she looked at his little brother who is not little at all and then reaching near it she opened her mouth and began to lick it clean.

After some time when it was done, she looked at him as Aiden ordered “gulp it down” She nodded as she drank all of it and then she opened her mouth wide and showed her mouth to him as she breath heavily.

‘Is she an masochist?’ Aiden thought as he looked at her excited expression.

“Well, whatever she is, she’s a slave now,” Aiden thought as he placed his hands on her head and activated Paradoxical Perfection.

Shona gasped as her body began to break apart and reconstruct. She cried out in pain, glancing at Aiden, who remained calm and composed. “Bear with it, and you will be stronger,” he reassured her.

Shona didn’t know what he meant but the slave seal activated forcing her to obey his orders, she gritted her teeth as she took in the pain and endured the whole process.
