All Chapters of Master of Life and Death: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

When Cassian York opened the door to the house, he heard two voices coming from the bathroom—a man's and a woman's."I've been holding back for so long that I feel like I'm about to burst.""Hey, stop being so impatient, you horny man. I'm still showering…"Cassian felt as though he had been struck by lightning. All the color drained from his face. The woman who spoke at the end was Lydia Nixon, his girlfriend.They'd been classmates during their time at medical college and had been together for two years now. After graduating, they both joined Rivershire Hospital as intern doctors. Both were still waiting to receive a full-time position.Never would Cassian have expected Lydia to betray him. When he heard the moans coming from the bathroom, he seethed with rage. Balling his fists, he marched toward the bathroom. He was itching to see who the man was!However, once he got to the bathroom door, he stopped. So what if he saw the man? Would that change anything?Despite only being

After leaving Vera's office, Cassian felt so indignant that he was on the verge of tears. Shawn not only stole Lydia away, but also teamed up with her to frame him. Most importantly, Vera believed their claims and demoted him to a nursing assistant!A nursing assistant was just a glorified caregiver. Their job was to help the patient with menial chores, such as cleaning up after the patient, washing their feet, feeding them, wiping them down, and even assisting them with their bodily functions…Cassian had graduated from medical school! What was the point of studying all those years if he was now relegated to doing such tasks?He knew full well that he only ended up in this situation because he was powerless."If I were the son of a rich man, Lydia would never have betrayed me. Shawn wouldn't have dared to hit me, and Dr. Frost wouldn't have made me become a nursing assistant either. It all comes down to the fact that I have no money and no power. That's why things turned out like

When Cassian got home, Jasmine had dinner ready.After seeing how drenched Cassian was, Jasmine chuckled and asked, "Why are you all wet, Cass? Did you fall into Mirror Lake?""You're incredible, Mom. How did you find out?""You fell into Mirror Lake?" Jasmine exclaimed, her expression turning serious. "Quick, tell me what happened."Cassian told her how he saved Henry from drowning at Mirror Lake. After hearing the story, Jasmine nodded approvingly. "You did the right thing. There's no greater good than saving a person's life. But, Cass, if you ever encounter something like that again, make sure you take precautions. You must be careful.""Got it, Mom.""Go get changed, and we'll have dinner.""Okay."Jasmine was from Sunvale. Cassian didn't know much about her family, but based on what she said from time to time, he could vaguely sense that she came from a large, prominent family.He didn't know just how large or prominent they were, but he didn't care to know either. In fac

"You said earlier you know of a way to get rid of my scar. Is that true?" Serena questioned.Before Cassian could reply, Eric spoke up first. "Don't listen to his nonsense, Ms. Landon. Madiora enchantments are nothing more than old superstitious beliefs. Those things can't be used to help you get rid of your scar."Looking at Eric, Serena asked curtly, "Are you Cassian York?""You must be kidding, Ms. Landon. How could I possibly be Cassian York?" Eric said with a laugh."Since you're not him, what gives you the right to reply when I'm asking him a question?" Serena asked loftily, her presence commanding and her gaze sharp.Instantly, Eric broke out in a cold sweat, while Cassian looked at her in shock. He realized that she and Vera gave off similar airs, though she seemed to have a more volatile temper. He couldn't help but wonder who she was.Wiping the sweat off his brow, Eric apologized, "I'm so sorry, Ms. Landon. I—"Ignoring Eric, Serena eyed Cassian curiously and asked, "

The crisp sound of the slap echoed in the hospital room, and Shawn's left cheek swelled up instantly."H-How dare you hit me?" Shawn glared at Cassian in disbelief.All along, he thought of Cassian as nothing more than a useless loser, but now…"Don't assume I've been tolerating you just because I'm afraid of you," Cassian retorted icily."I'm going to kill you!" Shawn raised his fist."Go on. I dare you to see what happens if you hit him," Serena said coldly. "Hurt him, and I'll end you."Shawn looked over and saw Serena's frosty, emotionless gaze. She wasn't kidding."Just who are you?" Shawn questioned darkly."Someone you can never afford to offend," Serena shot back with a glare. "Get out!"She sounded extremely commanding.After hesitating for a moment, Shawn unfurled his fist reluctantly. Before finding out who Serena was, he dared not do anything rash. What if she really was someone he couldn't afford to offend?"Don't think I'm letting you off the hook so easily, Ca
