Novel & Cerita Lucis Caelum

For a heartbeat, I worried I’d said too much, or too little. “With this being said,” I exhaled softly, steadying my voice, “I present to you what I might call Lumé. From Lumen, meaning light, representing purity and subtlety.” Cassia walked forward with poised confidence, handing the slender bottle to Mr. Julien first, then to the other board members. The bottle itself shimmered faintly under the light, frosted glass with a golden rim, simple yet magnetic. Julien turned it over in his hand, inspecting it like it was something rare. He pressed the nozzle, a soft pssst filling the air, and mist rained over the test strip. He waved it lightly, then lifted it to his nose.

Lucien felt it the moment the sky ruptured. The fractured crescent moon flared, its silver light bleeding outward until it swallowed the stars. The air thickened, vibrating with unbearable tension. Wolves howled in terror and awe. The earth shuddered. A column of blinding light speared down from the heavens, striking the ruined stone circle with cataclysmic force. Lucien was already running. He burst into the clearing just as the light expanded, roaring outward in a shockwave that hurled him backward. He skidded across scorched earth, barely managing to roll onto his side before the world went white.

He explained. Lucius sniffed the air around us and growled. “Yeah, a cancer hybrid, indeed. With arms and legs to be precise,” he spat the words through gritted teeth. I tilted my head to look at him and raised an eyebrow, expecting an explanation. “The nightbloom plant. Poor guy reeks of it. In small doses, for humans, it helps with insomnia. But only for humans. For us, supernaturals, it is deathly. It’s a hybrid of wolfsbane with a less prominent scent and is pretty hard to find. In fact, I don’t think it can be found anywhere in the area so it has to be imported.” Lucius explained, keeping his eyes glued to the gaping Alpha.

My knees trembled at Lucifer's stare. "W-what do you want?" I asked. Lucifer wasn't one of the friendly and fun-loving angels in the Kingdom. He was the most devious species that ever existed to the point that everyone here was doing their best to avoid him. He playfully smirked. "Guess what." I looked away, I couldn't even stand his creepy grin.

The weight of the Platinum-Zero dome was crushing my very soul, outside, the Star-Eater’s "Snow" beat against the barrier like a billion microscopic diamonds, each one a tiny parasite trying to find a crack in our reality, my vision was blurring into a static of grey and violet, and the metallic veins on my arms felt like they were being filled with liquid lead. "Kaelen! Koran! To the secondary foci!" I roared, my voice vibrating with a frequency that shattered the glass windows of the solar, "Lucian's crystals... they aren't just storage, they’re Refractors!"

"ah!!!!!!!!!!" I couldn't care less about the pain coming from my calf, so I jumped up and tried to climb up, but there was no place to climb on the wall of the pit, and the only depression on it was the unreadable seal script, which seemed to become more clear after being stained with my blood. Probably too much blood loss accompanied by excessive shock, my brain began to confuse, and fell back heavily, desperately looking at the moon hanging in the night sky, cursing the son of a b***h who tricked me into coming here.

“They will not be affected. The thing that I made only target beasts like you.” “But you seem to have miscalculated one thing!” Lucien said. Although I was confused and did not know what he was talking about, I chose to believe him. He said that everything was under his control so that should be it.

The chapel reeked of sex and brimstone, the air thick and humid like a fever dream. Selene Ravencrest was still on her back in the center of the glowing pentagram, chest heaving wildly, her perky breasts glistening with sweat and stray drops of glowing violet precum. Her tiny black lace panties were completely ruined, shoved aside to expose her swollen, puffy pussy lips that continued to twitch and leak from the powerful orgasm Lilithara had already forced from her. The stone floor beneath her was slick with the first messy rivers of her girl-cum, the crimson salt lines now dark and wet.

POV: Rhea Mooncrest "Close your eyes, Rhea! Don't look at it! It's trying to pull your mind apart!" Rhea heard the scream, but it felt like a sound drifting from the bottom of a deep, dark well. She couldn't obey. Her body was no longer hers to command. The golden blood Lucien had forced into her veins was singing—a high, piercing note that resonated with the colossal, violet eye tearing through the fabric of the heavens. The pressure was immense, a physical weight that pinned her to the ice altar while the cathedral around her began to dissolve into shimmering particles of frost and shadow.

He has missed six months of my life while going through hell, and he's been through so much all alone… would we be too much on each other? I shifted my gaze to the man behind him. A much larger man with a similar face, he was just an older version and he needed no introduction. The resemblance was uncanny and with Cyrus by his side, no one could deny he was his legacy. “Now there's three parts of Lust walking on this damn Earth,” Lucian muttered beside me. “… all in one place. The light beams must be going crazy. In fact, they should be here any minute.” “What? Is that- is that going to be a problem?”
