All Chapters of Bound By The Living Yama : Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

They soon arrived at the Blackwood family’s ancestral home. From the name alone, someone might expect an old, run-down house. Instead, it was a massive, high-class mansion surrounded by its own private estate. Every detail shouted extreme wealth and luxury. As Elijah got closer, a feeling of dread washed over him. If he could, he would have turned the car around and driven away immediately, but he couldn't abandon his boss. No one could blame him for being scared. The ancestral home was a dangerous, cutthroat place. The front yard was filled with poisonous plants and hidden traps. In fact, there was a rule that a guard had to walk with every visitor just to make sure they didn't accidentally step on a trap and get severely injured. When they reached the main gate, the guard recognized Elijah as Damien’s driver and opened the gates to let them in. Elijah drove into the compound and headed toward the massive parking lot. As Damien stepped out of the car, his eyes locked onto a famili

Anastasia had finished dressing. She had decided to follow Dimitri’s advice and try her luck with Damien one last time. If this didn't work out, she vowed to kill her feelings for him once and for all and never look back. As she entered the living room, Dimitri was pacing, checking his watch anxiously. "Where is Anna? She should have been here by now. Father doesn't like tardiness. Could she have changed her mind?" Just as he turned to head toward her room, she spoke up: "Daddy, I’m ready."He looked up and saw Anastasia looking stunning in a white fitted gown. It was form-fitting, slightly short, and featured a daring side slit. Dimitri smiled and walked over to her. "You look beautiful, my child," he said, kissing her forehead. However, he paused, adding gently, "But, eh... your gown. It’s a bit short. You know your grandfather prefers a more conservative look." Anastasia stood her ground. "Dad, if I change this gown now, I don't think I’ll have the courage to go out at all. It to

In that exact moment, an old saying flashed through Neil’s mind: You can serve a master for thirty years, and at the end of the day, the master will only say, "It was your duty to serve me." Only servants show loyalty; masters choose whether to show it back. That was exactly what was happening to Grandpa Neil. He had served his friend and comrade for sixty-five years. He had dedicated so much time to Tae's family that he had neglected his own wife and child. Because of that, his son, Lync, had grown up spoiled, and his wife had ultimately divorced him. He had sacrificed everything for this one man, only to be shown that no matter how hard he worked for the family, he would always be an outsider.A bitter smile appeared on Neil's face. "Thank you, friend, for clarifying where I stand," he said. "I might have served you my whole life and loved Damien as my own, but I am still an outsider, right? Not a Blackwood. Because of that, I am leaving the Blackwood ancestral home."He looked arou

Blackwood ManorThe Rolls-Royce Phantom drove into the premises. It was already late when Damien stepped out of the car, leaving Elijah to park it in the garage. Damien decided to walk the rest of the way to the main building. As he walked, he looked around the grounds.When he reached the garden, a memory came back to him, bringing a slight smile to his face. He remembered a night when a certain person had sat on that bench, talking to him for hours and even shouting at him multiple times. Damien had just sat there and taken it all in. He hadn't realized he possessed that much patience, but that night, he discovered he just wanted to keep hearing Ethan’s voice.However, reality hit him the moment he opened the large oak doors of the manor. He was met with complete silence. Ethan wasn't around anymore.Damien looked around the empty space before heading up the stairs. As he turned down the hallway toward his bedroom, his eyes landed on the door to Ethan's room, and he stopped in his t

Ethan's thoughts were completely filled with one particular man. I wonder what he's doing right now, he thought to himself.Meanwhile, Kristen was busy talking about a date with his high school crush, whom he had recently run into. "Jessica is even prettier now, but I don't know if I'm ready for something serious right now. She asked me out on this date, and I feel like it's her way of showing she wants a real relationship. What do you think?"Kristen turned to his friend, wanting some advice on his relationship drama. He immediately became annoyed when he realized Ethan was completely lost in thought. "This dick , he's not even listening to me," Kristen muttered.However, his annoyance quickly turned into mischief. A playful plan popped into his head. He began swimming quickly toward Ethan.Ethan, who was still daydreaming about Damien, suddenly caught movement out of the corner of his eye. He tried to stand up from his wooden chair, but he was too late. Within a second, he was comp
