Jonas stammered, his words a broken mess. “Y-Your Highness, I-I can explain…”

“You’d better,” I snapped, my tone severe so that there was no mistaking the gravity of the matter.

My gaze shifted to the human boy, who stood frozen like prey caught in a predator’s sights. “And you, who are you, and what’s your role in this?”

The boy remained silent, his wide eyes betraying a mix of fear and defiance.

“Ivor,” I commanded without breaking my focus on the trembling pair. My Secretary, ever efficient, stepped forward and handed me the envelope. I tore it open, and the first line struck like a blow to my chest.

‘Erico, baby…’

The words blurred momentarily as the ache in my chest tightened, but I forced myself to read on. Each line was a knife, carving deeper into my heart. Zela’s handwriting, elegant, hurried, and with pure emotion, poured out her longing, her fears, and her desperate plea for Erico to protect her secret.

My grip tightened on the parchment, my knuckles whitened. The ac

  • Breeder or Mate: The Crimson Threshold   Chapter 107 – A New Path Emerges

    An unusual atmosphere settled over Auntie Glenny’s house.The earlier tension from the confrontation with Rudi was still there, a quiet vibration woven into the night air.Rudi himself remained deep in thought, slumped on the worn armchair, his gaze distant and troubled. He stared blankly at the opposite wall, yet saw nothing, his mind replaying Lilias’s harsh, yet undeniably truthful, accusations. Her stark declaration had shattered his convenient self-deception, showing him how deeply involved he truly was. A knot of unease tightened in his stomach as he considered what her words meant, the chilling thought that he had unknowingly pushed innocent people toward something truly evil. He now had to decide if he was willing to change his life and to trade higher income for simpler needs and fewer expenses.Stan, always observant, seemed to withdraw into his own world. He sat hunched on the sofa, playing a game on his phone, the soft clicks of the buttons the only sound from his spot. Wh

  • Breeder or Mate: The Crimson Threshold   Chapter 106 – The Devil's Bargain

    “Perhaps there will be an additional reward for you, Luci, if you succeed this time.”The master’s last words, seemed to echo in the chilled, damp air of the bunker. Luci, the demon, considered the options presented by this sudden, tantalizing suggestion. He weighed the inherent risks against the immense, almost unimaginable potential for personal gain.A cold, calculating logic churned within his mind, pushing aside the lingering sting of his recent failure. As this new setup, this desperate last resort, began to coalesce into something that seemed truly feasible, a wide, predatory grin, slowly spread across his face. His mind, once consumed by the frustration of a botched plan, was now entirely fixated on the vivid promise of the reward his master had dangled before him, the intoxicating, almost overwhelming taste of impending power.“Perfect!” Luci hissed, a sound of pure, unadulterated satisfaction, like air escaping a punctured tire. He rubbed his hands together, his rough skin r

  • Breeder or Mate: The Crimson Threshold   Chapter 105 – The Master’s Wrath

    In a hidden bunker deep beneath the imposing building of the Order, the air was thick with frustrated rage. The walls, damp with the clammy breath of underground stone, seemed to vibrate with the sheer force of Luci’s fury.“Damn it all!” Luci roared, his voice echoing off the concrete.He slammed his fist hard against the cold wall, a sound that cracked like a whip in the confined space. His knuckles scraped, a fresh crimson mark appearing, but he barely registered the pain.“The plan failed! That accursed witch didn’t fall for it!” His tone was a guttural snarl, laced with deep disappointment and bitterness.The elaborate scheme he had so precisely crafted had gone terribly wrong. Auntie Glenny had been his main conduit, his crucial point of contact. If she had secured the Locknair blood, his position with his master would have been solidified, his ascent to power assured.“That old hag!” he spat, pacing the small, dimly lit room like a caged beast. “Such a simple task, and she coul

  • Breeder or Mate: The Crimson Threshold   Chapter 104 – The Demon's Gain

    In the spacious living room, Lilias found Rudi and Stan already seated, two steaming cups of rich, dark coffee placed on the polished wooden table in front of them.The gentle aroma of the brew filled the air, a stark contrast to the thick, cloying scent of the back room. As they saw her emerge from the shadows of the doorway, both men's brows furrowed, their faces etched with a shared concern.“Where is Auntie?” Rudi asked.He cast a quick glance towards the back of the house, where Lilias had just come from, then his gaze snapped back to her.“Did you manage to convince her to banish all that occult stuff?”He let out a heavy sigh, a sound laden with years of frustration. “The family has warned her for long, tried to talk sense into her, but she just seems so driven to belong to that Order, whatever it is.”Lilias walked over and sat down, carefully picking up the cup of hot coffee.Its warmth, a welcome sensation, seeped into her chilled fingers, offering a brief moment of comfort

  • Breeder or Mate: The Crimson Threshold   Chapter 103 – Selling Souls

    “But how do I get out of this?” Auntie Glenny whispered with desperate fear, the earlier manic gleam entirely extinguished from her eyes.Her hands, still clasped around Lilias’s, trembled uncontrollably.“I’m in too deep, Lilias, truly. I’m the second-highest authority in the Order now. To break away… that means my death, I know it.”A shiver ran through her plump frame.“I never foresaw any of this. I genuinely believed we were serving society, serving the cosmos itself, and that it would bring us prosperity, a better world.” Her face was a mask of betrayal and dawning horror.Lilias shook her head wearily, a deep sadness settling over her.“Humanity is simply not capable of such a feat, Auntie, of governing the cosmos. Even the Moon Goddess, with all her ancient power, does not command that authority. That power belongs only to the Almighty, the true Creator of Heaven and Earth,” she gently, yet firmly, corrected the woman.Her words were meant to offer a stark, spiritual clarity,

  • Breeder or Mate: The Crimson Threshold   Chapter 102 – The Brutal Truth

    Lilias sat frozen, her mind reeling, as a deep and appalled silence stretched between them.She was trapped, held captive not by chains, but by the eager, desperate grip of Auntie Glenny, whose touch, surprisingly strong, belied her outwardly plump appearance.The older woman's plea was a stark contrast to the idyllic setting of her home."Listen, I can help you find your friend, I truly can, and I can also offer you safe lodging for the night," Auntie Glenny insisted, her voice tight with a strange blend of desire and persuasion. "All I ask for is your blood. Is that really so much to ask?"Her eyes, burning with a mix of naive appeal and something darker, more intensely covetous, bore into Lilias's. They were no longer the soft, welcoming eyes of a kind aunt, but windows into a soul swayed by a dangerous promise.Lilias slowly shook her head, a quiet pity for the misguided woman mixing with her own rising disgust.She simply could not comprehend how humans, seemingly intelligent and
