Ties That Bind

Chapter 42

Pressure

Author's Note: Ok for a review that I got once again let me say that this is a story that I have put my own feelings into, but it is in no way a memoir. I am not a victim I am a writer. I prefer to keep my personal life separate from my writing which is why I do not post much about myself or haven't updated my bio in a while, but I will say this that I am actually very happily married with a family of my own.

Also I will add that this is a story that I thought of long ago when I was in more of an unhealthy relationship not abusive, just unhealthy before I met my husband that is where the story line comes from past remembrances, not present.

While this story is very different from some of the others stories I have written. I do relay some of my emotions at times, and I am sure I am not the only one who sometimes does feel sad, lonely, frustrated, and yes angry. The story does take the emotions to a bit extreme levels at times, but at the end of the day it is only writing.

I have many followers that do seem to enjoy the story and as you have read it does take on some very strong topics and emotions, but if the reviews continue to go to a point where it interferes with my personal life and family I will drop the story, this will be a last resort seeing as how I do not wish to drop the story or disappoint any readers, but I do ask you to understand this is a story and respect my personal choice to keep my writing and my personal life separate.

Onto some other reviews: one reader mentioned that Constance in previous chapters when Serena became ill was responsible, this is actually a very interesting thought. When I put together the story line I never went into full detail on how Serena became sick, but it is very plausible that Constance may have been poisoning her and that is how she became deathly ill so quickly.

Also Constance's reactions to Serena are based off of hate and fear from seeing how Darien reacts with her, which can lead to intense desperation given the right circumstances. In later chapters you will see exactly how far Constance is willing to go to keep control over others with herself in power. Thank you for putting that idea out there it is very interesting and something to seriously consider further.

Where many readers question why Serena does not just try to escape I will say that she actually has tried in the past when she was first summoned to his quarters, but Darien has many resources available to him and the loyalty of those around him, he would not let her get far. Also the last time she tried to escape after what happened at Lord Christopher's she was brutally beaten by him and would fear being so again. On top of all of this she actually found within herself she does care for him which further complicates things.

Also another reader mentioned that Serena may have other family out there this is something that I have been playing around with for an expanded story line and while I won't give away too much of the plot. I hope you continue to read further as more of the story develops and unfolds.

If anyone else has any thoughts or questions or I may have not answered your questions or review fully please let me know. I would love to hear from all of my readers regarding the story.

Thanks for following along Mars Light

Darien stood looking out his bedroom window he couldn't understand what went wrong possibly it was the food he ate that left his stomach squeamish, maybe he had drank to excessively last night causing him to feel a dull ache in his head. Or maybe it was due to lack of sleep that he felt fatigued, whatever the reason he couldn't understand what was wrong with him. He had a beautiful young girl just as Constance had told him completely innocent tied to his bed and he had difficulty performing.

He had coaxed her to his personal chambers late yesterday evening, everything went just as planned. She came to his room she was a lovely sight soft pink lips, pure white silky skin, and sandy colored hair. He immediately got thoughts running through his head of what he could do with her.

She had come to him just as all the rest before her did a virgin and he made his advances towards her and as expected she got scared and pulled away from him.

He was able to control the situation and subdue her easily without having to call upon the others to bring her back, after some small struggles he tied her down to the bed and made quick work of removing her clothing.

She continued to struggle against the ropes crying out for him to stop, he grabbed the blind fold he had earlier used on Serena seeing it still had some of her saliva on it and tied it around the other girls mouth to silence her, not wanting to deal with a replay of last time with Serena barging in on them so he kept her quiet.

He looked down at what he had done with her tied up waiting on him, with the blind fold covering her mouth and for a moment he had a vision of his blonde with her legs wrapped up against him while he rocked hard into her. He quickly shook the thought away he didn't need this, he had this other girl right where he wanted her unable to run, tied to his bed with her legs spread out for him, innocent ready for the taking.

He hit his hand up against the wall in frustration it was a game to him, a game he always won and to the victor go the spoils. It was only a matter of time before he got her to agree to be his permanently and mold her to his wishes. He looked back at her seeing her long legs and smooth stomach which he had every intention of exploring further as he closed his eyes thinking of her again with her legs wrapped around him.

He quickly shook the thought out of his head unsure how she got in there as he took a deep breath and looked to the girl waiting on the bed. She would be just the distraction he needed to forget about her and the way she heated up for him when she called out his name.

He turned back towards the window and took a few deep breath knowing nothing had changed, he was still in complete control of the situation and then turned around and looked back to the bed where she lied tied up. He watched her body wiggling around trying to get away from him and the many pleasures that he would bring to her, normally seeing them moving their hips around would be enough to bring up his member, but this time…this time it was different he thought about her again the way she would let out a light moan when his hand brushed up against her curves.

He reached up feeling the ache in his head returning again as he looked back to the bed where he had his first taste of her, she had been the only one, the only one who had ever made him come on their first try out

He shook the thought away knowing it had nothing to do with her. It could have been anyone, he could have the same reaction with this girl. He slowly walked over to the bed and put a hand to her forehead trying to calm her promising her "I'll take it slow"

She looked up at him with her eyes full of fear while he moved his fingers slowly up her legs and then reached down placing a kiss on her stomach as she shook at his touch. He heard her voice in his head crying out "more" he pulled back taking a deep breath and then looked to the girl seeing her mouth was still covered and raked a hand through his hair.

He let out a sigh knowing whose voice he heard in his head, then bent down quickly forcing himself to forget her and put his mouth sucking down on her neck as he heard her voice again begging him "Oh Darien"

He broke away from her and walked over grabbing his bottle from the night stand and took another drink out of it, then looked down seeing the girl lying there on his bed whimpering he let out a deep breath.

He regained himself and put down the bottle knowing it was just the two of them alone in this room, she was just like all the rest before her as he moved over to the bed and put his mouth down to one of her breasts as his tongue teased her nipple.

He felt her body go tense by his touch, unlike her when she would fully extend her body out further for him, he shook the thought out of his head finally hearing the silence he so desperately needed and continued licking her nipple, while his fingers traveled lower down as he took hold of her feminine part in his hand cupping her while putting a light pressure looking for his entry as he heard her voice begging him "please let me touch you"

He removed his hand quickly and let out a loud groan starting to feel sick to his stomach again. Meanwhile the girl looked up at him with fear and confusion in her eyes

He stood up from the bed and walked over by the window needing to clear his head of all things Serena hoping some air would help. He turned around to look at this girl lying there waiting, untouched by any other man. She was perfect for what he needed he should have no problem taking what he wanted from her, but couldn't asking himself again "what is wrong with me?"

He looked down to his appendage not seeing any rise at all. It made no sense he had her there right where he needed her, tied up and waiting for him. She was pure, untouched and by the end of this she could be his to enjoy at his pleasure without any further complications of feelings. He just needed to take his time just like all the others before her and he couldn't do it.

He cursed foully hearing her voice again in his head asking him "why am I not enough?"

He let out an angry scream determined he would not let her get to him and walked over to the bed to finish this. He grabbed onto the girls legs tired of all the games played, acceptance or not he would just have her for his own now.

He spread her legs open wide apart ready to enter all of him inside her tight walls, when he saw the vase on the floor that he had knocked over last night where the flowers still lied discarded on the floor. He heard her voice again in his head telling him "I wanted to give you pleasure"

He shook his head and looked away from the flowers, then grabbed onto her legs putting himself right at her opening, he would enter her quickly and get it done once and for all; when he heard her whimper and looked up seeing the tears mixed with the fear in her eyes. She lied there quivering beneath him, but it was somebody else eyes, the eyes that haunted his thoughts he felt piercing into him, and backed away slightly somehow it all felt wrong.

He put his hand down on top her leg and felt her jerking away from him. He closed his eyes and could feel Serena's legs wrapped around him tightly desperately seeking more of him as he opened his eyes and looked down on the girl he was with and removed himself from on top of her.

He walked past her to the window as he looked out on a clear blue sky. A small smirk came to his face thinking of that day by the lake, how she had come for him in multiple ways, he would enjoy going back there again, when he saw the girl that haunted his thoughts appear right in front of him.

He watched from the window seeing her running across an open field with her hair blowing out behind her as she ran. He stood there watching her feeling himself heat up at just her sight and then turned around to look away.

He looked over to the bed and saw Sarah lying there tied up waiting and he felt nothing, no pleasure, no rise, nothing as reality set in, he realized what he was doing or rather not doing with her and knew what he wanted.

He walked over to the bed and quickly untied the ropes he used to hold her down thinking with a little smirk of better ways he could use them with Serena.

He walked over to his bureau and grabbed a shirt putting it on over his head as Sarah slowly sat up on the bed keeping her eyes directly on him and lifted her knees up close to her trying to block her naked self from his view.

Darien paid no heed as he walked over in a hurry and picked up his discarded pants from the ground while the girl lied there scared and nervous not knowing what was happening. If this was some other game he was playing or if he changed his mind, but she was glad to be out of his bondage when he turned to her suddenly telling her "get out of here before I change my mind"

She quickly got off his bed and ran from the room not wanting to waste a second if he changed his mind as she ran down the halls in tears. Darien did not waste time worrying about her any further and quickly grabbed his boots placing them on then headed down the stairs to head towards the courtyard where he last saw her.

He walked down the hall feeling a sense of determination to have her as his own and no one else's, the plan was simple. He would find Serena grab her toss her over his shoulder if he must, take her up to his room and tie her down.

She would obey him and if he so wished to do so he would fuck her for days on end, make her forget about any thoughts of any other man, but him while her body responded to his touch in multiple pleasurable ways.

He would make her cry out for more, calling for him, begging for him, which he would gladly give making her come for him over and over again in multiple pleasurable ways.

He would finally make her understand what she had become, what she is, she is his and no one else's, she was what he wanted, what he craved for, this time and every time she would be enough.

He walked down towards the main foyer where Constance was supervising and looked up surprised to see him outside of his bedroom so soon she walked towards him asking nervously "my lord is everything alright and to your liking"

Darien looked to her not in the mood for her theatrics feeling in a rush to get out to the field where he last saw Serena running past telling her "yes, now excuse me I am looking for Serena"

Constance stood there dumbfounded as she looked to him questioning "Serena my lord?"

Darien nodded his head angry by her ridiculous statement telling her "yes Serena my mistress. I am in need of her"

Constance stood there blinking unsure what had happened with the other girl and shook her head telling him with a little raise of her chin "sir, she has run off after not obeyed a direct order"

Darien looked to her with a raised eyebrow surprised that she would dare run off on him again questioning "run off"

Andy came walking down the steps at that moment stating calmly "I just saw her go running towards the stables I believe you can find her there"

Darien nodded his head and quickly walked out the door ready to find out what this nonsense is about her disobeying orders and if she had any intentions of trying to leave him again he would deal with her as necessary

Andy watched from the stairs as Darien slammed the door shut behind him as Constance stood there with a little smirk expecting her to get the punishment that was coming to her when Andy turned back and told her "I believe you have other things to see yourself too"

Constance looked to him with a knowing grin and walked back towards the kitchen

Darien walked out towards the stables ready to go inside when he saw a wave of blonde hair out in the field behind it and followed her past the stables to an opening of fresh grass, normally where he would let his horse run free, but today he slowly walked up seeing her lying there on her back with her eyes closed.

He slowly walked up behind her and crossed his arms over his chest with a little curve to his lips, seeing her lying there still with her eyes closed blissfully unaware he was there watching her he told her "so is this how you spend your days waiting for me on your back"

Serena opened her eyes wide surprised to hear his voice and then turned around quickly to see him there as she got up to her feet she looked to him choking out the words saying "my lord I didn't expect to see you"

He looked to her seeing the redness around her eyes from where she had been crying and stepped up closer to her a put a hand behind her neck asking "oh were you expecting someone else"

Serena shook her head and turned away as she wiped a tear off her cheek knowing he was the one who had found pleasure with another telling him "no one" as she crossed her arms over her chest stating "although I had heard you were occupied with another"

He let out a little smirk knowing no one else would dare speak to him in the way she has become accustomed to doing so and reached out placing his arms around her feeling her warm skin pressed against him as his mouth came down kissing her neck.

Serena stood there taking in his scent feeling the warm sensation of his breath against her skin, even now when she was angry with him after just taking another to his bed. Now he had come for her. It was her turn next knowing it was all just a game to him, that she was his pawn in.

She stood there angrily, but could do nothing to stop his advances and what was worse the way he made her feel inside when he touched her when she heard him say "I had been with another, but she could not satisfy my needs the way you can"

Serena stood there shocked and confused after what Constance had said to her telling him "I don't understand"

Darien used one of his hands to lift her chin up, so her eyes looked directly at him. He looked into those big blue orbs of hers, those eyes he could become lost in he told her "simple no one else can give me the same pleasure that you can. I realize that now"

Serena stood there shaking her head trying to get her head around what she just heard him say as she shook her head asking "but the other girl?"

He looked to her seeing the confused look on her face and let out a little chuckle telling her "right now all I wish to think of is how loud I can make you scream out my name"

She looked to him shaking his words out of her head knowing after everything he had said and done, he couldn't have meant it the way she hoped, but still she had to ask him "what happened with the other girl she wasn't good enough for you?"

Darien was a little taken back by the truth in her words and shook his head telling her "no I had to let her go"

Serena looked up at him shaking her head, blinking her eyes, trying to get the word to form asking "why?"

He looked to her growing impatient with the questions as his mouth came down kissing her neck telling her "I told you why?"

She put her head back wanting more as she let out a small moan, feeling his lips travel down her skin as she asked him "please just tell me"

He nodded his head as his hand reached out taking hold of her bottom firmly telling her "very well she wasn't you"

She could feel his mouth on her warm skin and his hands holding her up close to him, she closed her eyes trying to take all of it in asking him "but what you said about wanting to have many women that one was not enough"

He removed his mouth from her neck and looked to her displeased telling her "do we really need to keep going over this" then let out a sigh telling "yes alright if that one is you, your enough"

Serena stopped feeling the world stop spinning while her breath caught in her throat knowing she was the only one he wanted.

She leaned back into him feeling his tender touch around her neck, to down her back as a tear escaped down her eye, while he bent down in front of her placing a kiss above her breast stating "now let's take this conversation upstairs" while he reached down and placed his hand down on her lower regions telling her "a little sample of what is to come"

Serena felt her whole body heating up ready to take him right here if he so chose while his mouth slowly went back up again to her shoulder as she let out a small moan asking "more"

A smile graced his lips hearing her pleads as he ran his hand up and down her arm slowly ready to grab her and throw over his shoulder to carry her upstairs if she gave him even the slightest hard time in doing so. He raised her arm up and placed a gentle kiss down on her elbow and then stopped as he released his arms from around her leaving Serena momentarily shocked by his sudden jerk reaction as he grabbed onto her wrist raising her injured hand up asking "what is this?"

Serena pulled her hand away afraid of his temper that she saw rising and shook her head calmly telling him "it's nothing just a flesh wound"

Darien looked down at the towel wrapped around her hand seeing traces of blood on it and then ordered her "let me see it"

Serena slowly reached her hand back out waiting for his anger to come out as he took her hand in his own and carefully unwrapped the towel seeing the one below was completely red and saturated with blood as he looked up to her with disapproval and took a deep breath stating aloud "a flesh wound"

Serena gulped hearing the anger in his voice as she watched him slowly remove the towel to see the deep gashes on her hand beneath as she bled onto him.

He shook his head while trying to keep pressure on the open cuts then looked to her and took a deep breath trying to keep his temper in check demanding "what is the meaning of this"

Serena tried to remove her hand from his telling him "it's nothing really" Darien did not let go of her hand this time arguing back "this is not nothing. Why did you not say something sooner this could become infected. Why would you not tell me of this right away?"

She looked down to the ground remembering how she got the cuts in the first place telling him "Constance said you were busy elsewhere with another. I didn't want to disturb"

Darien shook his head remembering how terrible she was at doing kitchen duties and expected it was a kitchen accident then placed a kiss down to her injured hand telling her more calmly "not any longer, not when it comes to you. Come we'll get this looked at right away and then you will be staying out of the kitchen going forward"

Serena looked up at him surprised he no longer seemed angry with her, his words were actually caring. She nodded her head seeing the gingerly way he wrapped the towel back around her hand while he told her "come along now, let's get this hand looked at"

She nodded her head unable to remove her eyes from him and simply relied back saying "uh huh" while questioning herself if she was really only dreaming all of this.

Serena winced as the doctor sewed stitches into her hand; fourteen stitches later it was finally done. He wrapped her hand in a bandage and tied it off. Darien stood close by her the whole time as he looked to the doctor asking "well will she be alright"

The doctor nodded his head saying "yes luckily the cuts were not as deep as I originally expected. They will need time to heal though, for the next week keep the bandage and the area around it clean, and especially no using that hand"

Serena was going to object, but Darien intervened telling him "she won't I will be sure of it" as he turned around to see her trying to use her injured hand to get down from the exam table she sat on top of.

He put his arm around her waist helping her down to the ground as he looked to her and shook his head with mock disapproval saying "not even out of the doctors yet and already not doing as you're told"

Serena blushed by his words as she asked him "how will I get by without the use of my hand for a week" he whispered his response down into her ear "I'm sure I can think of a few ways" She looked to him with a smirk asking "really what kind of ways"

He felt his need for her present itself knowing he would never get his fill from this girl as he told her "soon" He gave the doctor a few coins for his trouble and then left with Serena in toe.

They walked down the small path in the village when Serena's stomach began to grumble he turned to look at her surprised asking "was that you?" she lowered her head embarrassed telling him "yes"

He looked to her and realized they had not shared a meal together in days and asked concerned "when did you last have something to eat?"

Serena looked down to the ground knowing he would not be pleased and did not want to make eye contact telling him "yesterday morning"

She could tell by the sound of his voice he was not happy hearing this he told her "Serena as my mistress I expect you to follow certain rules one of them being, you must eat right and take care of yourself properly which I have found you have done neither in my absence"

She nodded her head solemnly and replied telling him "I am aware my lord and I'm sorry" He tilted her head up to face him he told her "one more thing Serena"

She looked to him with a loud gulp unsure what it could be, what he expected of her, if this crazy dream she was experiencing was over and the lord of the manor was back what punishment would behold her, when he put a hand under her chin raising her head up to face him he told her "I prefer hearing my given name from your mouth"

She looked to him not expecting to hear that and nodded her head feeling unaware of who this man with her is telling him "very well Darien"

He picked up her injured hand placing it to his lips and put a soft kiss on the bandage telling her "come we'll get you something to eat"
