Border Prisoner: The Mad Boss Seduces Her Every Night

As the insults subsided, she froze.

Because she caught a glimpse of the mirror on the ceiling out of the corner of her eye, and saw that the light and color on the mirror were changing with her voice.

At the same time, the orange above my head instantly intensified, as if someone had splashed another spoonful of orange-red paint into the mirror, so deep it was almost dripping.

Shi Luyu's eyes widened, her lips trembling: "What... what is this?"

Her voice was soft and ethereal, the last syllable of her words trailing off like a frightened kitten. She stared intently at the mirror on the ceiling, as if trying to uncover some terrifying truth.

Why...

Why is this mirror affected by her voice?

Why does the mirror turn orange when she speaks loudly?

Shi Luyu was immediately chilled to the bone. A chill rose from her tailbone, like a cold centipede, crawling up her spine segment by segment.

"Do you like it, baby?"

Xu Yuanjia spoke in a lazy, slow voice, as if he were appreciating her current blankness and fear.

"I already told you, this was tailor-made for you by your brother."

Shi Luyu's eyelashes trembled as she managed to spare a sliver of consciousness from her extreme shock to observe.

She noticed that the mirror on the ceiling did not change while Xu Yuanjia was speaking.

He just said such a long sentence, but the mirror didn't change at all.

Only her voice can make the mirror change color.

This realization made Shi Luyu's breath catch in her throat. Her fingers unconsciously clenched the velvet blankets beneath her, her nails digging into the thick fabric, as if trying to grasp the last bit of security.

Xu Yuanjia's hand reached around from behind her, his slender fingers pinching her chin, forcing her to lift her face higher to meet the wet, frightened eyes in the mirror.

"My brother started collecting your voice samples a long time ago."

His voice was very soft, as if he were talking about something very ordinary, but his tone was like that of a ghost whose illness had deteriorated to the point of madness.

His tone carried an almost self-absorbed fascination, as if he had already rehearsed it countless times in his mind.

"The laughter in your voice when you call me."

As he spoke, he buried his face in her neck, his breathing slow and hot.

"Your breakdown and screams after discovering the truth."

His fingers slid down her chin, tracing the veins on the side of her neck inch by inch, as if he were reminiscing about something.

"Your suppressed sobs after each failed escape attempt."

His voice grew softer and softer, as if it came from a very, very deep place.

"Your breathing, your sobs, your pain, your pleas..."

He broke down those words extremely slowly, each word like a honey-coated razor blade, cutting into her eardrums again and again.

"And, including your unconscious ramblings in your sleep."

Shi Luyu was trembling all over.

Her eyes grew increasingly red, and tears shimmered in the pale yellow and orange-red mirror light, as if they might fall at any moment.

She remembered those nighttime phone calls, her cries when she broke down, and those unconscious murmurs in the dead of night that she thought no one knew.

This man actually silenced all her voices, like a collector gathering butterfly specimens, meticulously pinning them into the mirror, one needle at a time.

"Everything is recorded in the voiceprint system in the mirror."

Xu Yuanjia's voice fell into her ears like a verdict, a sentence, and a kind of insane confession.

"Therefore, it only listens to your voice; no one else will do."

As the last word fell, Xu Yuanjia had already grasped the string of bells.

Shi Luyu's heart skipped a beat.

She saw herself in the mirror; her face was so white it was almost transparent, and her pupils were filled with terror.

Xu Yuanjia was behind her in the mirror, half of his face submerged in shadow, revealing only a pair of extremely bright and dark eyes, as if gazing at her from the deepest part of hell.

"Well then, my dear baby." He looked up at the mirror above his head and smiled politely.

"Now, let's try it out."
