Venti X Diluc Novels & Stories

“And you, Selena? What do you want?” My throat felt tight. Tears filled my eyes as I spoke the truth. “I’ve wanted this for a long time.” Lucien stepped closer and gently held my hand. He lifted it and placed a soft kiss on the back of it. “Then let’s go outside,” he said. I hesitated. “Aren’t we supposed to wait for the full moon or something?” My voice shook a little. Luca laughed and took my plate. “Who cares about rules?” Lucien added calmly, “The Howling Evergreen doesn’t follow old traditions. But we still need witnesses.”

“Why would all of you gang up to bully one helpless lady? Do you have any shame?” “That is because she deserves it! She is a dirty slut!” I heard Elisa's angry voice and my body froze. Lucien seemed to have sensed my reaction and patted me on back as if telling me that it was alright. “What did you just say?” he repeated, and this time, I could clearly feel his anger but I was certain about one thing and that is, his anger was not directed at me. “I said she is a bitch. She just tried seducing my fiancée and I could not stand it. I had to teach her lesson!” I heard the smugness in Elisa's voice. Although I was not looking, I could tell that she was getting excited.

Zeno's bent and unfriendly expression made Vasilio chuckle mockingly. "Cia returned my kiss earlier," said Vasilio. "Bastard! Get off this Earth, Vasilio!" The rage that overflowed at Vasilio's humiliation, let out sharp claws from Zeno's stumpy fingers. The lycan growled, swiftly pounced towards Vasilio, and just as quickly Vasilio teleported to another place. He seemed to be taunting Zeno who was getting enraged by his impudence.

Ready. Rowan took her hand gently. “Tonight, Moonridge is ours again,” he said. “And you… You’ve shown everyone what a Luna truly is.” She nodded, her eyes shining. “And what it means to fight for those you love.” But the night was not yet over. From the distant forest, a ripple of movement stirred. Kael. Rowan’s wolf growled instinctively, senses alert, even though the enemy had retreated before. The memory of golden eyes, sharp claws, and relentless strategy lingered in every corner of the ridge.

Dante had gone to great lengths trying to connect with him but never succeeded. "I heard you recently rid yourself of someone who couldn't see clearly." Luca's lips curved slightly as he swirled the wine in his glass. "I happen to need a partner who can read the situation. Would you be interested in discussing this?" Envious glances came from those around us. I smiled faintly and clinked glasses with him. "That depends on your sincerity, Mr. Vitale." Luca lowered his head, his voice dropping very low. "Dante's leg was a gift from me, Ms. Leone. Consider it an advance.”

Fuck! I swear, if I get him, his death will be slow and beautiful…and even the hell will honor his soul as he ascends. “Vittorio DeLuca?” Lucian immediately raised an eyebrow at me. My head was buried in shame and I wa speechless. “I told you we couldn't trust that prick!” His fist pounded heavily on the table and shattered the papers. “Fuck!” He screamed and rattled the strands of his hair violently. A wave of rage washed over him and he was gasping for breath. He took a deep drag and let it out, his eyes shone brightly into the distance with clarity.

"No… this can't be…" Arthur staggered backward, barely able to stay on his feet, his eyes wide with disbelief. Victoria let out a blood-curdling scream before collapsing, overwhelmed by the shock. The entire altar was swallowed by a deathly silence, broken only by the howl of the wind. Liam, seeing his deception exposed, stared at me in disbelief. "Elena… how did you know?" Then, almost muttering to himself, he tried to justify, "I handled everything perfectly. Anyone who knew the truth… I eliminated them. I even used a special method to hide the mate bond between us."

Leaning toward Silas, I jerked on his arm. “Can you get me another violin?” “Don’t worry, I brought yours.” Silas smiled as he jerked his head to the side and looked behind me. Craning my neck, I saw one of Silas’s warriors walking toward us with the violin Daxton gifted me on my fourteenth birthday. Although Silas didn’t say I could take off the mask, I figured it was the perfect time. After removing the mask, I took the violin from the case, along with the bow.

Xavier said. “Not anymore. I'll pick another beta, but not now. There are a few bad eggs I have to clear out first.” When I said that, my eyes locked with that of Aiden and that feeling from earlier came again. I had the sudden urge to make him the beta, but waved it over. Come on, I hate this person. I quickly looked away from him. “Are you impeaching me?” Beta Marcus yelled angrily, causing a stir in the crowd. “Don't you dare raise your voice at me, Xavier!” I hit my Scepter on the ground and everyone gasped.
