Lucian's POV

Beom carried the two boys on his shoulders as we walked through the forest.

Some children's corpses were hung up on a tree with their stomach slit. I bet this was the mutants' way of warning whoever dares to follow them.

Beom hadn't noticed this, so did the boys. I gripped his shoulders and turned him to the other side.

“Lucian what are yo—”

“Shh. Just keep quiet and move.”

“But we are going the wrong way.” He protested.

“Alright. Let's see who’ll traumatise the boys now.” My lips curled.

He stared at me skeptically before slowly dropping the boys.

“Stay near him and don't look back okay?” He said to the boys who nodded slowly.

He glanced at me once more before taking a step forward.

“Oh shit!” He cursed as he stumbled to a side of the forest, vomiting.

I knew he would react this way, typical Beom. Even if I had told him to forget about it, he certainly wouldn't agree but would insist on knowing why I had changed the route.

“Why? Why the fuck are they doing thisss??!!

    Lucian’s POV “Wow.” I heard Roman whisper beside me, Uriel was astonished as well.“Scary uncle, how did you do that?” Uriel asked, his eyes widening.“I have it in me.” I chuckled.Beom was still surprised as he stared at me, saying nothing. Then he bent, calling the boys over.“Don't go telling others about what scary uncle did okay? This is our own little secret. Pinky promise?” He stretched out his finger which Uriel hurriedly clung up to.“That's childish, even after doing that doesn't mean a secret would be kept. I give you my word, I won't say a thing. And if I do, behead me.” Roman said with a serious look.Beom looked at him bewildered. “Come here Roman.” “Look at me, whether you say it out loud or not, nobody is going to behead you, okay? Don't bear such thoughts in mind.” He ruffled his hair playfully.Beom rose up, casting me a worried glance. I was sure it was about Roman. The boy was saying and doing things that weren't expected from a child his age. Now come to think

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Underground (2)

    Lucian’s POV I wondered if Nikolai had an idea of what their boss was doing. I doubted it because if it were so, Baran would have informed him even if Nikolai was still a bit suspicious of him.“Your master would be very mad to know he has subordinates that are very dumb with the brain of a chicken. What a pity.” I shook my head slowly.“I promise you, your death would be slow and painful. You have been rambling for the past few minutes.” He growled.“Ah, you're mistaken. It's the other way round, it's you who has been rambling. Let's get this over with, shall we? Your disgusting smell is making me lose brain cells.” I sighed.“Lucian, what the hell are you doing? You're making him more riled up, he might hurt the boys!” Beom whispered in my ear, panicking.“Shh. Don't be a mosquito.”Beastmen were known for their awful smell, and they always get tense and angry if someone mentions it. They sometimes kill or harm those who make fun of them. Knowing how powerful they were, people knew

    Lucian's POV “Where did the things go?” Beom asked the boy.“They went to attend to something important before they changed our location.” Another boy answered.“I see. Don't worry, we'll get you boys to safety.” Beom said as he branded his claws. He them snapped off the chains that bounded the boys one by boy. All the boys eyes brightened as they caressed their wrist which were red as a result of the chains.“Where did the things pass when they were leaving?” Beom asked.“They said some words and the ground open, over there.” The boy from earlier answered, pointing at a corner in the room.“Do you remember the word?” “No.” He shook his head slowly.“Do any of you remember the word?” Beom faced the rest of the boys.They shook their head, meaning they didn't know what the word was.“Well…the rest of the boys were asleep when they left. They sprinkled a kind of dust, which made them asleep. I didn't inhale the dust, but I pretended to be asleep like the rest.” The boy revealed.“If

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Flowers

    Iris's POV I rose up from the flower bed, dusting off the little flowers from my dress. Was this what the afterlife looked like? This place was beautiful, which meant I had done good deeds when I was alive or I was a good person. Personally, I wouldn't call myself a good person nor would I call myself a bad person.Well…maybe the goddess had seen how I suffered on earth so she decided to take pity on me. I guess I died by hitting my head on a rock or something but I didn't remember anything. The book…I remembered the book. This wasn't the afterlife, this was a place in the book. I bit my lips in realization. What was that book? Why did it bring me here?All these questions were useless because there was no one to answer them. The main one was, how do I get out of here?I looked around, but there was no sign of any living person, just butterflies and birds. Well…I wouldn't know if there were people if I didn't check it out.I took steady steps, observing my surroundings. There were

    Lucian’s POV Azariel had dropped the kids at the council, where their fates would be decided as most of their parents were dead. But surviving ones could come to identify if their kids were among the rescued kids. Roman and Uriel were dropped at my friend, Lance’s house. He was a doctor that specialises in many areas. I knew he would be able to handle them.Beom went back to the council after cursing at Azariel several times for making him worry by faking his death. The ride home was silent, the day had been tiring and I shut my eyes, taking a nap. One of the guild assassins did the driving, while Azariel laid on the back seat, exhausted.All I wanted now was to go to sleep, despite the nightmares. After some minutes, the car slowly came to a halt and my eyes snapped open.“My lord, we’ve arrived.” The assassin said as he opened the door. “I’ll be taking my leave now.”I nodded, as I glanced at Azariel who sluggishly rose up before stepping out of the car with a mumble. Ivan sighted

    Iris's POVI was surrounded by more creatures, both male and female that looked like Barbrooke.“Who are you? And what do you want?” I asked, as I tried to keep my gazes on each one of them.There were about five of them, plus Barbrooke making them six.“Ah, she's a new one.” One exclaimed and the others began repeating the words, guwaffing.“Yes, a stupid one at that. She called flowers boring!” Barbrooke yelled.The others' eyes widened, like they had just heard a taboo.“She called flowers what?” One of the females shouted.“Boring!” Barbrooke exclaimed.“How dare she?” Another howled.“Let’s deal with her immediately.” One said.“I wish we could, but the madam is not back yet. She's busy.” Barbrooke shook his head solemnly.“Wait! But we could have some fun with her, a little designs and carving on her skin doesn't sound bad. And besides we aren't going deep, the madam would love it!” The woman from earlier shouted.“Yes!”“Yes!”“Yes!”The others chanted repeatedly, and I could s

    Iris's POV I rummaged through his pockets, and I found a bunch of keys. I picked it up, rushing towards the man.“Don't worry mister, you'll be free soon.” I said as I inserted one of the keys into the lock of the chain to which he was bound.It didn't work. There were numerous keys, and I didn't know which one was for his lock. “Please, please, please.” I muttered as I kept on trying different keys.I had to set him free before someone catches me. If I were caught, I’d be as good as dead and I didn't even want to think about what they would do to me.“Don't bother about it. Even if you managed to get the lock open, I wouldn't still be free.” The man said, shaking his head with a small smile.“Huh? What do you mean mister?” I paused.“You see, I’ve been here for a long time and they've extracted so much pain from me that I’m just not moved by it. I bet my pains must have broken a great deal of the realm.” He chuckled dryly.“I don't understand…” I looked at him, confused.“First of

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Book of Illusion IV

    Lucian's POV I jumped into the hole in the book, ignoring Ariel's scream. The only thing on my mind was seeing Iris safe. After falling for a long time, I landed on flowers. I hadn't been to this realm before, but the seer at the council had been able to peel into what it looked like. A place filled with flowers, trees and colourful butterflies which was the perfect illusion in contrast to what was actually going on here.I looked around, but there was no sign of anybody. The mansion where the prisoners were kept should be nearby. Iris must have been taken by the floweries.I hopped from tree to tree, advancing forward but I found no mansion. There was no route and that made it harder. Everywhere was just covered by silly, annoying flowers that irked me. The place was too bright to my liking.As I hopped on another tree, I felt something pierced me from my back. I reached out for it and pulled it out, it was an arrow. I guess my presence has been noticed.I continued hopping from tr

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Special One

    Lucian’s POV“They are back.” Ivan informed me as I trained.I hummed in response, and continued training. Dodging the bullets that came my way. There were several programmed machines, whose aim was to shoot out bullets. I was dodging each and every one of them without using my powers. I had quick reflexes, so I didn't find them quite hard. I imagined a situation whereby my powers were taken away from me, and I could only chuckle.Ariel had mentioned earlier that he was going to watch a fight at the black market. I knew Ariel too well to know that he got bored of those fights. So, he definitely had other intentions. He revealed that Vonn Averaj, the younger brother of Konstantin Averaj would be present at the fight.Vonn Averaj was a human, despite the fact that his brother was a god. Konstantin’s mother, who was a human, married another human after her first husband, who was a god, died. Vonn was their son, a step brother to Konstantin.He was known for his love for women, and his a

    Iris's POV “What's wrong Rhea?” I whispered.“It's nothing, just slight pangs of headache.” She whispered back.“Which means you haven't required well, you should have stayed home till you got better.” I sighed.“I promise, I'm fine. Let's focus on this man here before he kills us with his suspicious stares.” She muttered.“Who are you? And what do you want from Konstantin? You don't really look like you’re from the brothel.” He sat up, his eyes alert.I could see his slowly reaching out for something in the pillow, he didn't trust us.“If you're this suspicious of us then why did you send those beautiful ladies out?” I asked, and he paused in his movement.“Yes, they are indeed beautiful. But they don't compare one bit to both of you, I thought you were high class brothel ladies prepared for me by as the champion. But with the question you asked, you aren't.” His eyes peered at us.“What should we do?” I whispered as we stuck together.“Ariel probably wants us to lure him or somethi

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Black Market II

    Iris's POV I froze on the spot, unable to look away as memories of the past came flooding. The beatings, the tellings, the whips. I trembled, unable to move.Meanwhile his lips slowly morphed into a smile, a taunting one. He realised he still had the effect on me, that I was still scared of him.“Hey! Move red hair what the hell are you standing there for?” A gruff voice pushed me to the side and I staggered.My father then lowered his hands to the belt he was, caressing it as if to remind me of the pain he had inflicted on me with them. It was like I blanked out, and I could only see him.What the fuck was wrong with me? I thought I had gotten stronger, I thought I would be able to face him someday without fear. But here I was, immobile and shaking like a leaf.“Stop it.” I muttered, repeatedly.His eyes never left mine, his taunting smile still present.“Iris! Look at me!” I heard a familiar voice snap, and felt a pair of hands on my shoulders that shook me rigorously.I shook my h

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Black Market I

    Iris's POV I sighed for the umpteenth time as I tried to push away memories of the incidents that had happened yesterday. I groaned at the remembrance of how I was easily flustered, when he was just trying to apply medicine to bruises that I had ignored.This was the second time this was happening, and it was all my fault. When he asked me to strip and threatened me with my mother, it turned that he was only trying to check if I was injured from what I told him.But my body had been reacting otherwise. I guess that's what you get for being a virgin all your life. A pang of guilt hit me as I thought of the words I said about his family.Honestly, I expected him to hit me or something but he didn't. Flashbacks of how he beat my father because he saw marks on my shoulders, came with full force.He saved me from the rogues when I tried to escape home, the floweries incident, he came to save me. To think of it, he had been my saviour anytime I got into a mess. Yet, I still couldn't stop b

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Attraction

    Lucian’s POV Punching Lucian was the only way I could vent my anger and frustration. He enjoyed the beating as the mad person he was. He knew who Iris was, yet he had put on the perfect facade.I had asked her to strip not because I was angry at her or anything, but because I knew she'd be hurt. With what she explained to me, the cab driver would definitely have hurt her. The red lines on her face told it all, and I knew Lucian didn't hurt her.If only I had met him alive, he’d have preferred to be sent to hell. Iris said Lucian saved them, and I knew he’d have definitely killed the men.My blood boiled that they had the audacity to touch and hit her, and they got away with it by dying before I got to them. Maybe I shouldn't have asked her to strip, because when she did, it took a lot of fucking control to hold myself. I couldn't lie I felt sexually attracted to her, I had let her get to me.I had never been affected by any woman this way. I had known it would get to something like

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Strip II

    Iris’s POV I rubbed my ears to see if I had heard wrong, but from the look in his eyes, he wasn't joking.“I won’t repeat my words, and if I do, I promise you'll hate me more than you do.” I heard him say, and I gritted my teeth.“You're kidding me.” I seethed.Who the hell did he think he was to order me around? Do I look like some kind of stripper? If he needed one, he should go to a club; I don't care.I’d had enough, taking one deep breath, I rose from the bed and made my way towards the door. But on getting to the door, I halted, turning to face him.“Look, I’ve explained everything to you. I don't get why you're still…pissed or whatever. What else do you want? I’m sorry if….I made you worry, that's if you even did.” I muttered.“I didn't try to escape.” I added, but he still said nothing, his cold eyes watching me.I sighed, before reaching out for the door handle to unlock it.“If you dare step out of that door…I’m afraid your parents' life would not remain the same.” He said

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Strip!

    Iris's POV My heart thumped rapidly, that I feared those in the room could hear it. I sat, glued to the seat without being able to make any movement. Lucian stood by the door, staring into my soul with those cold blue eyes.The mad king on the other hand, didn't seem ready to leave. I was screwed, he had definitely misunderstood and with the way he was looking at me, he looked like he would tear me apart at any moment soon.The plan was to explain everything to the mad king, so that if the search party got here, Lucian would understand. But instead, Lucian had found me first.“I can explain.” The words jumped out from my mouth as Lucian took a step forward.Still locking gazes with me, each step was like a death sentence to me. He stood in front of me, his height towering. Then he withdrew his gaze and now faced Lucian, the mad king.I was in between them, feeling so damn uncomfortable. Looking at them up close, they were the same height. But Lucian, my nightmare seems to be slightly

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Jealousy

    Lucian’s POV My brows furrowed, as I clenched my fists. Her scent that I perceived in the car boot earlier, wasn't a mistake or a coincidence, she was indeed in the boot. Which meant she had probably tried to escape along with her new friend.“What's wrong Lucian? What did Ivan tell you?” Azariel asked upon noticing my quietness.“Let's go back to the council, now.” I muttered.I would visit Konstantin later, but now; finding Iris was more important. Maybe it was because I went a little easy on her the last time she attempted to escape, and now she thought she could do it freely.If only she knows….When I find her, I’d have to teach her a good lesson so she wouldn't dare assume for once that I was a good girl. That's the thing with people, you show them a little leniency, and they’d take it for granted.I dashed out of the shack, walking to the car with Ariel and Azariel behind me. This time, I drove by myself, rage coursing through my veins. I was sure she didn't escape to her home

  • BRIDE OF THE BEAST LYCAN KING   Found

    “Well, well, well. Look who we have here, what a coincidence.” She smiled. “Aren't you meant to be at your pack now?”“It's a long story.” I muttered as I explained everything to her, from how the cab driver brought us here to how he attacked us with his men, and finally Lucian, the mad king coming to save us and how we got to the hospital.“It's understandable that Lucian killed those men, he can't stand the likes of them. But he let his driver bring you and your friend to his hospital? That's new.” She looked surprised.“He has definitely caught interest in one of you, or both of you; maybe.” She laughed lightly but I wasn't finding it funny.He was interested in who?I subconsciously imagined the scene of him flaying his wife, and it was enough to send shivers down my spine.“Thank you for the information. I’ll immediately leave with Rhea.” I muttered quickly and she burst out laughing.“You really are as quick as a horse. Is that how much you're scared of him? Don't worry, he won'
