Marie Lu Legend Series Novels & Stories

Others… I didn’t want to think where they’d come from. My spine locked. A woman flanked Lucian, her skin dark yet oddly pale, hair limp, jaw knife-sharp, neck rigid. Rage smoldered in her eyes. She lifted her face to the nearest camera. And smiled. Slow, deliberate, chilling. Sharp and slow. Almost like she could see me through it. Marie. I’d heard the whispers. The undead witch. The one the swamp spit back. I slammed a hand over my mouth because I’d just made a sound. A pathetic one.

"Just think that I'll fight for you no matter what happens, I'll fight for our love." Luna averted her eyes and looked at her book shelves with old and thick books. "I've read something in one of my books. There are so many civilians who died, because of the love between two people. It was taken from real life, but they changed the name of the place and the people." "Are you referring to the Legend of the Moon?" Arayan asked. "Legend? You mean it's not true?" "How can you say it's not true? You are the proof," Arayan replied with a smile.

Marie smiled fondly at the young girl. "I remember being your age with my first love. It's a wonderful feeling," Marie replied. "With Mr. Landley?" she asked. Marie's eyes widened. "Oh, heavens no! I met my husband years later. No, this was a farm boy from the village where I grew up. Dominic," Marie answered, remembering. "What happened to him?" Lena asked. Marie paused before answering. "He went off to sea, intent on finding a fortune for us. I never saw him again. I love my husband, he gave me my beautiful daughters, but...there's no one quite like your first," Marie said.

"I don't watch TV because I'm busy on the farm every day. I don't have time. And when I do have some free time, I prefer to spend it in the city shopping for new clothes. So, I've never paid much attention to what's going on with Wyvern Peak, but I have heard a lot about it…" Marie went on and on. Adrian's interest was piqued when he heard this and had a hard time stopping himself from asking, "What kind of an impression do you have toward War Legate Draco then?" Marie scratched the corner of her mouth and made several strokes with her hands as she replied, "I thought he’d be strong, burly, and sport some stubble. His eyes should be as large as pearls, pfft… Hahaha!" She was amused by her ow

God it’s been so long since I had been touched there. And then reality set back in as the woman’s cries got louder and my own mind begged for me to stop this mans touch. ♠️♦️♣️♥️♠️♦️♣️♥️ LUCIEN'S POV- Now the meeting was finished and over, I needed to speak with Maria. Determination to find out what was wrong with her. Something was wrong with her; I just know it. She was wearing that mask she wears to cover her true feelings and emotions. I know it well; I’ve been on the receiving end of it for a while now.

"I’m looking into the records, Marie. I’m looking at everything. If I find that you’ve kept anything from me... if I find that there is a 'complication' out there that involves my son’s blood... I will finish what I started seven years ago. Do you understand?" Marie didn't flinch this time. "You’re doing it again. You’re trying to control people’s lives like they’re pieces on a board. But Lily isn't me. She isn't a scared twenty-year-old maid with no resources. She’s a Greg. And if you push her, she’ll bite back."

Can you forgive me just once more? [Stop testing me, Beatrix. I promise I’ll marry you. Is that enough?]

“Are you alright?” Lucas bristled at the sight of him, his anger simmering just below the surface. “Did you know about Louise?!”, he snapped, his voice laced with bitterness. Adam’s brow furrowed in confusion, his eyes wide with shock and surprise. “Louise? Who is Louise? What are you talking about?” Lucas clenched his fists, his nails digging into his palms as he struggled to contain the storm of emotions raging within him. “My grandmother, Adam. Seth has been keeping her prisoner for years, torturing her to manipulate Clovis into doing his bidding.”

My blood was boiling with hunger for success. I pulled out and assembled the rifle, my heart was racing in my chest. Somehow my fingers were shaking as I mounted it. Most of the the curtains of the neighboring were drawn except for Monique's room. It was now or never. I was confused for a moment. I wondered if I was taking the right mission. I saw in her in a state I had least anticipated. The beauty lady on the other side of the room was familiar… my all time crush! Monique was pointing a gun at her head, at the door the beautiful lady was crying. Was it going to be a murder-suicide case? I had to act fast… I pulled the trigger and what I saw next was the bloodstain on the walls.

Drake turned to motion towards Angel, "My dear friend here is very hungry if you can give him something to eat, I will gladly get rid of any monsters you wish.” “We don’t have much but if you can kill those damn monsters we can certainly spare something.” They looked up to see an older version of the little girl holding a rifle. “Names Alexis Romanov and she’s my little sister, Akilina. Come in and we’ll talk.” Drake stood up, “That would be good.” He turns toward Angel again and holds out his hand. Angel walks ahead of Drake and they follow the girls into the Cabin.
