《Through Love and Instinct》全部章節：第 71 章 - 第 80 章

 When my wife, the queen of this kingdom died decades ago, I've spent my days securing the safety of the kingdom as well as my son, Tyler. For some reason, the idea of being a second-rated king and leader of a wealthy and prosperous kingdom scared me too much. Too much that I have forgotten how to be a father to my son.My days since then was spend to do the duties I have as a king but never as a father. I was so focused on surpassing the late king. So bad that even being a father to my only child seems to be so impossible for me. And yet my son grew up into an amazing prince so fast I didn't get chance to watch him took his first steps, tripped on a flat surface, got dirty, cry, smile and laugh. I let my chance slipped in exchange to fulfill my desire. Lucas, my queen's younger brother take on the duties and role of a father to my son and I would always be so grateful to him for that. He was always there for Tyler, whenever I am not around. He gu

"What!?" Austin exclaimed as soon she heard what Shaun have said. "You want to proceed with the Lycaea, gain that power and kill me Are you out of your stupid and empty mind!?" she angrily said as he put on her clothes and fixed herself. "What!? What do you think of me!?" Shaun answered, "Do you think I can do that to you?" he said reaching for the woman's arms. Austin's expression softens as she exhaled and sat down on Shaun's bed. "Just explain everything to me. What do you mean of going along with the ceremony?" she said. Shaun sat down beside her and pulled her closer to his side, "I only meant it as an act." he said. "We have to make Veto and his ally to believe that I really lose my control over you, gave in to my temptation and in the end, killed you with my own two hands. We have to make them lower their guards for our plans to be successful." he said stroking the woman's hair down gently.Austin put her arms around Shaun's waist as she rests h

 "What? Is that all you can do, Shaun?" Priam laughed at me, playfully swinging his sword in the air. "You have the courage to boast that you are the only child of the great king, but look t how weak you are? Turns out, training with prince Tyler didn't do that much for you, huh?" he said. His hurtful words sting my ears so much. Sometimes, I think deep down he really mean every word. I could hear my own teeth grinding with the emotions building up inside of me.Damn! I hate this feeling. I clenched onto the shaft of my sword and took a deep breath and swing at him in a speed of a light but he easily evaded my attacks and smack me in the head using the scabbard of his sword as he laughed crazily. "Is that it?" he scoffed, "you think that would be enough to beat the king? Just like that? Don't be so foolish, your highness. Surprise attacks like that won't work to a paladin who served your father for a long time."I gritted my teeth a

"I heard from Lupus that you've improved, Shaun." Tyler said as he swing his sword to Shaun's direction."I mean, he looked so happy when we got to talked about it. He looked like a proud father for his son, so much that it makes all the hair on my arms and legs to raised and wave."The side of Shaun's mouth moves a little upwards as he shielded his self from Tyler's attacks with his sword. "Lupus is just overreacting." Shaun said running away from Tyler. "Well.. Should I say I did?" he said, almost laughing as he continues to evade and escapes, shielding his self from Tyler's cruel attacks with no intention of stopping. "Lupus.. was all jolly.. and all smiles when he.. talked about it." Tyler said as he continue on attacking while Shaun continues on evading and shielding. "You know the old man. He gets all happy over simple things." Shaun finally let out a surprise attack to Tyler. Tyler's cheeks were scratched and wounded a little bit.

When Priam told me years ago that I was not his child and that someday, I would fulfill an important role given to me and would lead a huge kingdom in the future, I find it rather ridiculous and impossible than the feeling of being honored. I even told him that, how could a unique and indifferent child could lead something even greater and bigger than myself. How could a child with no clear origin be able to influence others and make them accept his leadership?How could I? But Priam just laughed at me as he caressed my head that time. He looked at me with a fatherly smile on his face and said, "Shaun, you're future is already determined even before you were born. Only you and the person you are destined to meet could only change that fate." he said and gave me a tapped on my back, "But I know, you would be able to change that fate, because unlike someone I know, you have a huge heart and personality to do so. And I would always watch your back until that time
