Lucifer's POV Kill, Stealth, Ripper and Rage were already in the study room when I walked in with Ashlyn. "Aye, why does she look like an horse vomited on her this morning?" Rage asked smirking. "Lucifer engaged her in one of his numerous punishments." Kill said and they erupted into laughter except Ripper. "I wonder how you come up with those punishments Helldog. It's like you have a big book of torture in your head." Stealth said and the trios laughed again and I smirked. Ashlyn did not have a pleasing look on her face but, she kept quiet. "You're hurt." Ripper said to her noticing her wrist. The wrist I had personally cut. Ash shook her head. "I'm fine." She said. "You should see the pack doctor." Ripper suggested. I was beginning to get angry. His tenderness towards her was suffocating me. Since she stepped into the house,he had been exceptionally friendly to her and it irritated my senses making me think he had a thing for her. "It's okay Ripper. It's nothing to worry ab
Lucifer's POV And here I was going against everything I told myself again. Going against my rule of not coming close to her. Going against my principles and protocols. Women were nothing but sex tools and nothing more. But here she was, weaving me tightly in the perfect trap she has laid out for me. A trap of deceit. A trap to lure me in. I pulled away from her looking at her innocent face. How can such an innocent face, a body so fragile, a mind so feeble be so dubious. Dubious in ways to wrap me around her fingers. Maliciously pulling me in even when I did not want to be pulled in. If I was a devil to her, then she was hell. My hell that I had to bear. My hell I was trying to run away from but constantly failing. She was a temptress. Tempting me into pulling her closer whenever I decide to cast her away from me. Why doesn't she leave me the hell alone? She stared at me with those big bright blue eyes innocently, but I knew better. I knew better that behind those innocent eyes
Ashlyn's POV The next morning was extremely cold that despite shutting the windows, the wind still found a way to seep through due to the rain that fell last night. The cold outside formed a mist frost on the windowpane and I could remember drawing a happy family on it back in Edinburgh and then tiny droplets from the frost would ruin either the face of the children or the parents. I had always drew a happy family back home. I even painted a few, but father called it a waste of time since I was doing it with normal paint unlike Otis. Otis could paint too but he made use of human blood. They always turned out incredible, but the stench were always there. "Mi'lady, it's time to dress." Roselia said walking into my room along with Catriona. Immediately I saw her, I wanted to speak with her but I did not know if it was right to speak to her in the presence of Roselia. Roselia had been here earlier this morning to fix up my hair and while waiting for her, I had gone to stare out the
Ashlyn's POV I sat in the comfort of the carriage and got uncomfortable once in a while whenever we hit a stone. I had a lot of thoughts in my mind. Thoughts of escaping. Thoughts of running far away but I knew otherwise. If I tried to run away now, I'd be caught in no time. With a bunch of lycans following us behind the truck. Also, Lucifer's threats were still lurking in my mind. I had no doubts he would carry out each and every word he said. Running away was something I should think carefully. At least not today, but oh, how it feels good to be outside. Seeing the tall olive trees, rocks and streams. I was finally out of my prison walls. Out of the nostalgic air it possessed that threatened to suffocate me. It was a long, tiring and bumpy ride and when we finally got into Edinburgh, my heart raced as I saw the familiar surroundings of the Royal Mile a far distance away. With this ray of luck, I could easily run home but I knew otherwise. I'd be putting myself and my family in
Ashlyn's POV I walked into the palace and there was the warlord king sitting on chair carved in gold but wasn't a throne. His expression was stern as he conversed with another person who was before him. He looked in his early fifties and yet possessed a sturdiness. I swallowed in nervousness. With this kinda look, how will I convince him? How will such a man believe in my lies? I had the sudden urge to turn around and flee as fast as my legs could carry me. The instant he set his eyes on me, his hard and stern look changed into an expression of lust, desire and greed. All the expression I've seen the men of Royal Mile have on their faces whenever they set their eyes on me. I had no idea I had such power on men except for Lucifer of course. To him I was just a disgusting little vampire he uses for fun. He plays with me like a cat plays with a mouse. The warlord king immediately dismissed the man before him. I smiled pleasantly. My guess earlier was wrong. This could turn out to be
Ashlyn's POV For the first time in my newly miserable life, relief washed over me when I saw Lucifer standing at the entrance door. I was shocked to see two hearts beside him and then, the ringing of the bells outside. The screams made me realized they had succeeded in getting into the strongholds of Dunbar and it reminded me of when my town was taken too. The warlord king stared at me as his eyes slowly darkened. "You brought this upon me? I should have known a woman would be my downfall one day!" He said and reached for his sword that hinged at his waist.I swallowed. He was about to kill me! Just as if Lucifer read his intention, he fired another arrow, hitting him right on his leg. He groaned in pain. His guards started trooping in and they all charged at Lucifer. I expected him to transform but he did not. Instead, his eyes were pure golden and without much efforts, he took the guards down. In swiftness, he snapped off necks, heads, pulled out hearts, ripped off body parts,
Ashlyn's POV The night had become darker and the smokes that had risen from the fallen walls of Dunbar smothered away. We headed back to Glasgow. I had heard Lucifer talking to Kill about rebuilding the city in coming months and then making it a residence for the less privileged. I wondered why he did not just kill the warlord king alone and let the people live if he still wanted the city standing. Was he afraid that they'll form a coup and try to eliminate him? With Lucifer, no one could understand how he thinks. He was seated beside me in the carriage later on as the coach rode away and the smell of death still hanging in the air. Looking outside the carriage, I saw the scavengers of both the night and day circling the air. This was their moment. I stared down at my hand and saw the fairly burnt flesh and I sighed again hoping it will heal soon. When we crossed the borders of Royal Mile, Lucifer commanded we stopped and rest. My heart gladdened at the sound of that and when t
Lucifer's POV And she did make the most of it. Becoming the aggressor in a slow and steady pace. Taking every inch of my phallus into her mouth like it was hers. Teasing and stroking. Touching and Licking. I almost lost my head in it and dominated over her, but I refrained. It felt like she had yearned for it all her life. Yearned to be loved in this manner. Something I will never be able to give. I did not know why I had made love to her instead of the usual disciplining sex I gave. Seeing her in the bathtub had sparked up something. Something I could not explain neither could I comprehend it. And why I was still in the same position with her was baffling. It just felt right at the moment. And with all cravings satisfied, I left her sound asleep on the bed. It was really a weird feeling for me and it stuck to my head refusing to get out. "That was..." Steel began searching for the right word to say. "Shut up." I said to him knowing what he wanted to say. "I deserve to be hear
