Lucio The Arcana Novels & Stories

"It was the perfect hiding place, Lucien. You thought you were keeping her safe from your mother, while I was using your money to monitor the restoration of her neural pathways. We just needed her to remember the decryption key before we eliminated you." "The key is useless," Lucien rasped, taking a bloody step into the room. "I changed the encryption protocols thirty minutes ago from the medical bay. The offshore accounts are locked. If my heart stops, the entire Vane-Ardent fortune is distributed to every major charity in Europe. You get nothing." Casper’s eyes narrowed into slits. For the first time, the machine showed a glitch. "You’re bluffing. You wouldn't destroy your father's legacy.

"If father said that then it can happen. But I am not sure for how much time. Because the Lucifer I know... loves to destroy things. Even if that human girl is unlucky enough and falls for him then also... he will make sure to hurt her so bad that she will fall out of her love. Trust me mother... I know him. He loves to break his favourite things... just to see if he can survive without them or not and he always does...." Arcangelo's POV I have played my game for today. I didn't give her much time that she can think of a way out. She is smart I have to give it to her but too naive. She trusts so easily. When she is in problem she uses her brain but doesn't use it when she trusts. How can she

Moonlight streamed through the shattered roof, painting silver pools across the floor. A figure stepped out of the shadows. Lucio. A former lieutenant of Marino’s who had flipped sides years ago. His face was lined, his eyes darting around nervously. “You came alone?” I asked coldly. He nodded. “I know what he’s planning. But it’s worse than you think.” Alex moved beside me, a silent wall of menace and authority. “Talk.” Lucio licked his lips. “He’s not just building an army. He’s targeting the families. Your alliances. He wants to isolate you. Break you down piece by piece.”

In less than a month, he wiped them out completely. On the day of the final reckoning, Lucio was drunk. He staggered into the cemetery. "Viola, I avenged you," Lucio said, placing the bloodstained watch of the Arcibaldo famiglia's boss before my grave. "It's finally done, Viola. Their sins are paid." He held a bottle of liquor, laughing like a madman as tears streamed down his face. Then, he drew a handgun from his waist and pressed it to his temple. "Now, it's my turn to atone. Viola, mi dispiace…"

Lorenza immediately countered, “Mr. Colonna was trained in a sanctuary.” At that moment, Lucia descended the stairs. She intended to ask the kitchen to prepare soup the children liked. Lorenza turned to her, eyes gleaming. “Lucia, what’s your horoscope?” Lucia calmly replied, “I’m a Virgo. Why?” Lorenza’s eyes widened. “So you are a Virgo…” She turned quickly to Leonardo. “That means—” Lucia didn’t wait. She turned and walked into the kitchen, silent and composed—like a guest in her own home.

It depends honestly. Everything about him screamed “gentle soul” or “possible sword-wielding oracle.” He wore the company intern lanyard like a joke, because he was not, in any universe, a regular intern. Yin tilted his head slightly, his smile curling like he’d just read a plot twist before the rest of the audience. “Hmm… so the wind god was right,” he said quietly, mostly to himself. His eyes flicked to Selena, specifically to the faint glowing yellow sigil blooming on her chest.

"Lucian is clever. He would have foreseen this day and anticipated my plans. What if he left something behind, a contingency for the girl? Something I was unaware of." Lucifer paced the room, his mind racing. "It doesn’t make sense," he muttered, his claws scraping the marble floor as he walked. His eyes burned brighter. "What if he bound himself to her? What if…" He turned sharply to the minions, who flinched under his gaze. "Search the archives! Find every detail of Lucian’s last rites. Every spell he ever cast. Every artefact is tied to his name. If he left behind a means to shield her, I will know of it."

Lucio just arrived and saw the two leaving. He was out of the mansion and was taking his stroll at the backyard when he heard the news that Leon's made an uproar inside the mansion. "Forget our agreement, we will never accept you as business partner." Mr. Gu said while getting out of the living room. "W-what do you mean? Was there something wrong? What did my niece do this time?" Lucio panicked. He can't lost this big fish that will soon help him to recover his business that soon to be bankrupted. He needs them, that's why he came here and tried to pressure his brother's son. But everything will be wasted just like that?!

Lara informed, her tone carrying a hint of uncertainty. Lucian frowned, his expression displaying a mix of frustration and determination. "If it continues this way, I will no longer have any pack members left. I think it's time. The time has arrived for the great battle. I'm going to attack the devil with all my might, with all my strength... With my full and complete pack. No more sending them in bits; we attack as a single unit with our full strength. And I have a little surprise gift awaiting the devil. It's time for the devil to meet his end and for the love of my life, Señorita Adrianna Sebastián, to return back to me," Lucian declared, his voice resonating with unwavering determination

"No need to draw this fight out and risk losing the battle like an idiot." "What? You're tired of playing already? Such a shame, but I think you're right. Toying with an enemy as strong as you would be dangerous." Lucia says. Unlike Arkad, Lucia has not needed to rely on her contract, until now. While still under the influence of the Licia's illusion, the world around him converts back to the room where they were fighting. As Lucia uses her contract, everyone watching is shocked to see the area morphing all around them. Not only is she using her ability to make Arkad see what she wants him too, but her contract also allowed her to bend reality around her.
