LOGINChapter 62Prince Azrael Valtor’s POV “What's the new plan?” Magnus asked.“Sylvian… I guess he has crossed the line. Let's go to Lucien's palace right now,” I ordered.“Slow down. Is there something I'm missing here? Why would you think Lucien's brother would take him?”“No time for that. Let's get going.”Not up to forty minutes later, we arrived at the palace.“Prince Azrael, what brings you here?” Princess Mia asked respectfully.“Where is your father?”“He stepped out. My brother called to cancel his wedding. I guess since you are also his friend, he must have called you too,” she said, and I knew behind everything she was saying to me, she was lying. She knows something and she is hiding it. She also look scared and worried.“Where is Sylvian?” I questioned again, not having the time to start answering anything from her.“He stepped out as well.”“Get your brother here right now,” I ordered, flaming up, but Magnus tried to calm me down.“Cool down, okay? I will handle this from
Chapter 61Prince Lucien Aster's POV I woke up feeling so tired and exhausted. Where am I?I remember the last person I went to see was Azrael. Don't tell me that bastard kidnapped me again.I got off the bed and hurried to the exit. That bastard is going to pay for taking me against my will again. I have never seen a crazy man like him before. He just won't let me be.“Azrael!!” I called out, walking out of the room, but I got no response from anyone. What's even strange was the fact that there was no scent of Azrael present here at all. It was as if he was never here.“Azrael, come out wherever you are, you bastard!” I yelled, but instead, a familiar scent hit my nose. The scent of smoked pine and crimson amber… that belonged to Sylvian. I wondered why I felt so disappointed that it wasn't Azrael. Maybe I'm losing my mind.“Brother!” His voice echoed from behind me.“You are finally awake.” He rushed over to hug me like I was about to vanish from the face of the earth any moment fr
Chapter 60Prince Sylvian Aster's POVThe moment I used my connection to pull Lucien out of the hospital, I kept him hidden in my safe house that nobody knows about.He was fast asleep when I relaxed by his side, touching his cute face and kissing his cheek. My phone rang with a call from Mia. I picked up, telling her I was busy before ending the call.“Don't worry, Lucien, I won't hold back anymore,” I smirked while caressing his hair, remembering how it all started. “You just need me to make you happy and no one else.”I remembered how I started growing these forbidden desires to claim Lucien as mine. I really tried so hard to resist. Why was I so swayed by his pheromone every time I was around him?It got so bad that I started coming up with lame excuses to be far away from him. I was supposed to be the crown prince, but because I was born out of wedlock, my father never married my mom. She died while giving birth to me. As a result of his one-night mistake, he hates me with a pass
Chapter 59Mia’s POVHearing such news from Sylvian, I didn't know if I should be excited that my prayers had already been answered or if I should be worried.Was Lucien aware of what Prince Ragnar was planning to do to him?I was brought back from my thoughts when father grabbed Sylvian tightly by the neck, his face red with anger. “Your brother will never cancel the marriage plan! Are you trying to ruin this family?”“Oh great, now you think I'm ruining the family?” Sylvian yelled back, struggling against father’s grip. “I only got a call from my brother telling me he is no more interested in the marriage. I did well by sharing the news with you, father, so let me go.”Prince ragnar looked completely unhappy about the news. At least my brother was not entering his trap. The fact that Ragnar turned the tables around earlier to make father believe he was protecting me was something else. But then again, I was happy my brother Sylvian came here to save both me and Lucien from that m
Chapter 58Prince Azrael Valtor’s POV About entering the place with them, Kayden stopped me right in my tracks, his hand shooting out to block my path.“Prince Azrael, no matter what happens, do not release your pheromones to hurt anyone here, most especially the hostage,” Kayden warned, his eyes narrowed with fierce protective instinct.“And who do you think you are to tell me what to do?” I sneered, my jaw clenching as my alpha dominance flared at his audacity.“Lucien’s best friend, so I got the damn right,” Kayden shot back without a single ounce of fear. “He doesn’t joke with me at all, and just a reminder.” He moved closer, stepping right into my personal space despite the dangerous aura radiating off my skin. “Lucien hates you with passion. You ruined his life, and because of you, he is in this mess.”He finished his sentence, turned his back on me, and joined Raphael, who was already waiting inside.I stood there in the cold corridor, my fists clenched so tightly my nails dug
Chapter 57Prince Azrael Valtor’s POVWhoever took Lucien, I swore I was going to hunt them down, kill them, and tear their soul apart. My blood was boiling with rage. As an enigma, my instincts and territorial dominance were already clawing violently at the edges of my mind, driving me insane with the need to rip apart anyone who dared touch what belonged to me. A few moments later, Magnus came to me, his face grim and pale. “The whole CCTV footage got cleared.”“So you are trying to tell me the one who took away Lucien was able to clear the footage? Who dares me? I want that bastard dead the moment he is found.”“Rest assured we are going to find Prince Lucien, but if I may ask, do you have any idea why he was suddenly taken away from the hospital? Did you tell anyone apart from me that you were at the hospital?” Magnus asked, his voice low with concern as he stepped closer.I trusted Magnus the most, and it was okay sharing the news with him. He would not betray me.“I didn’t tell
