Chapter: Chapter 140Mr Igarashi was enraged. "What do you think you're doing, Ryuho?". He tried to remove his hand but Ryu just held it tighter."You can't kill him father" he answered and the hope that had been been extinguished in me was ignited once again.Tears of joy ran down my face. Ryu stopped him. Ryu stopped him!Does this mean Ryu couldn't bear to see me dead? Does this mean he had even a sliver of feelings for me? Does this mean we still had a chance?"Ryuho, what are you doing?" Tobio asked as he stepped up. "Let go""Oh you shut up" Kaito snapped, pulling Tobio back. Tobio tried to break free but Yasu grabbed him by the collar and held him in place."Stay here like a good boy" he said, patting Tobio's hair. "Do not interfere between father and son""Let go of me this instant!" Mr Igarashi commanded, trying but failing to free himself. "What the fuck has gotten into you? Don't tell me his little speech has softened you. Or have you developed some kind of feelings for him?"My hope burned br

Chapter: Chapter 139At my question, Mr Igarashi finally released me then stood straight. He stayed there until he slowed his breathing and schooled his expression. "What do I want from you?" he asked then laughed. He raised a hand then patted my hair. "Ah, I want so many things from you Aito. I want to see you in pain. On one hand, I just want to fucking kill you right now and on the other, I want to torture you till you beg for death. I want you to suffer like my daughter suffered""No! Aito has suffered enough!" Yua wailed. "D-Don't hurt him anymore! I-It wasn't him. It was us. It was Sakura and I that hurt her the most out of jealousy. Aito even tried to protect her. He-""Silence!" Mr Igarashi snapped and she immediately shut her mouth. "You think he's the only one I'm going to punish? I'm coming for you sweetheart. Don't worry" Yua visibly paled as she shrunk back, as if her presence would be hidden from him by doing that."You know, that friend of yours, Sakura, is very lucky" he said, meeting my

Chapter: Chapter 138To say I was shocked would be an understatement. That sudden information slapped the life out of me. I was frozen still and I couldn't even breath. The entire room was deathly still and felt like air didn't even exist. My ears were muffled by the erratic beating of my own heart. It was so fast and so painful that I wanted to pass out.Mr Igarashi... is... Aera's father?..."So you see," Mr Igarashi continued, like he hadn't just dropped a bomb. I don't know if it was due to my pounding heartbeat that flooded my ears but his voice sounded far away and a bit distorted. "It isn't just Ryuho who wants revenge for what you did to his parents. I also want revenge for what you did to my daughter!""H-How can it be?" Toshiro stuttered. The fear in his voice was evident. "H-How can you be her father?"Mr Igarashi chuckled lowly. "Due to issues you don't need to know, we got divorced and although I loved my daughter immensely, I let my ex-wife get the custody. They both left me and settled do

Chapter: Chapter 137"Stop using him!" my dad gritted. "We all know that he's not really your son!"Wait what? I looked at Ryu but he was glaring at my parents. I glanced at everyone just to see that only Yua and I were shocked.Tobio, Yasu, Kaito, Toshiro, my mum and dad all seemed normal. Like they knew about it already. Wait, were Yasu and Kaito in on this too? Were they pretending to be on my side?Mr Igarashi looked amused. "Oh really? And how do you know that I'm not his real father?""Because I knew his real father. He looks nothing like you but looks exactly like Mr Gotou!""Then why is he calling me his father? Where is Mr Gotou?""He-" Dad began but stopped abruptly then went silent. He lowered his head and refused to speak."He what, Dad?" I asked. I wanted to know. I was tired of all the secrets. "I want to know everything. What are you all hiding?""Will you tell him or should I?" Mr Igarashi asked.Dad glared at him but still refused to speak. If Mr Igarashi wasn't Ryu's real father, it on

Chapter: Chapter 136My eyes widened in shock. He'll be mine? Ryu will be mine? Could he really do that? I gazed at him questionably for I couldn't believe it. Still, it didn't stop my heart from fluttering. "A-Are you serious?""Aito!" Toshiro snapped. "Are you fucking serious right now? He's lying to you. Don't fall for it!""I give you my word Aito" Mr Igarashi said. "I never go back on my word""What do you want?" I asked. I could already see the future. To be with Ryu..."Aito!" Dad roared. "Aito stop this!""Aito, listen to your dad" Yua said. "Don't betray us like this""What do you want?" I asked again, pretending like I couldn't hear them.For the first time, Mr Igarashi gave a genuine smile. "All I need is the passcode to their study and I want you to open the laptops inside. I'm sure you know the passcodes too"I nodded. "I know everything"My dad, Toshiro and Yua started to shout, trying to convince me not to agree. Not to listen.But I wanted Ryu. I deeply love Ryu. After everything, how co

Chapter: Chapter 135Those words were like sharp knives, slashing open my heart. Tears poured down my cheeks like a waterfall. I felt utterly humiliated and worthless. "Ryu...""Don't say my name" he snapped. "You don't deserve to say it""You fucker!" Toshiro shouted, twisting and turning on the floor, trying to untie himself. "What kind of person are you! Leave Aito alone and come fight me. I'll beat the shit out of you! I'll make you pay for this!""Shut up!" Tobio snapped, sending a kick to Toshiro's gut. "Shut the fuck up!"Toshiro coughed, scrunching his face in pain. Still, he didn't give up. "Cowards! You two are fucking cowards!"I felt so disappointed and ashamed of myself. Toshiro had told me so many times. Even Dr Desai too. But I refused to listen to any of them. I defended Ryu fiercely. In my heart, I believed I was loved by him. I believed I was his priority.And now... I chuckled. My pathetic situation was even funny to me now. I started to laugh, drawing their attention but I didn't care.

Chapter: Chapter 299He did that. Those were his. His babies. His very own kids. A low growl rumbled from his chest and without a second thought, he seized Prince Ron’s ankles, spreading his legs wide open with ease. Prince Ron barely had a moment to gasp before Zedekiel wedged himself between them and crashed their lips together, stealing his breath away. The kiss was deep, searing—curling his toes and sending shivers down his spine. Prince Ron clung to Zedekiel, his heart pounding wildly. The naked desire and heat flowing from his beloved's kiss made him feel cherished, adored and wanted in a way that left him breathless. Zedekiel pulled away, giving Prince Ron some seconds to breathe before kissing him again and again. His kisses were filled with adoration as his fingertips traced along every contour of Prince Ron’s body, whispering praises as if uncovering a sacred art. “Every inch of you is perfection,” he breathed, his tone awed and soft, “You are more beautiful with each passing moment and I c

Chapter: Chapter 298In the now quiet cave, Prince Ron’s heart was pounding fast, his beautiful green eyes wide as he stared at his beloved who stood at the foot of the bed, taking off the purple sash around his waist. His robes loosened and Prince Ron flushed, shuffling backwards on the bed. "W-What are you doing?" He stuttered nervously. He had only been complaining about things that may happen in the future. He never told his beloved to do anything! "What do you think I'm doing?" Zedekiel asked, his dark gaze never wavering from Prince Ron’s flushed face as he slowly took off his robes. The dark fabric fell to the floor with a soft ruffle, quickly followed by his undergarments. Prince Ron’s emerald green eyes widened in stunned awe, his breath catching in his throat as his jaw went slack. His gaze locked onto Zedekiel’s form, drinking in every inch of his beloved’s beauty as he wondered, what has his beloved been doing for the past 3 months!!! Zedekiel proudly stood tall, his pale skin smooth like m

Chapter: Chapter 297"Who am I?" He grimaced, stunned. "How can you forget who I am? I am Alaric! The one who saved you from that creep Fredrick who kidnapped you!" 'Also, I am your big brother!' He wanted to add. 'You might not remember me but I surely remember mother forcing me to wipe your bum whenever you pooped when you were a baby!' Prince Ron’s face scrunched further. "Uh... I only remember my beloved saving me that day." Zedekiel smiled smugly as he ruffled Prince Ron’s curls lovingly. He stood straighter, his chest puffing with pride. "What?!" Alaric exclaimed, unable to believe what he was hearing. How could Ron give that Elf all the credit?! "I was the one standing next to Ludiciel in that dome. You made us create this huge version of what you think the Dark Lord looks like! I had to split the earth and move the winds to make that thing look real!" Prince Ron’s brows shot up as he pretended as if he was just remembering who Alaric was. "Ohhh," he drawled. "You're that weak witch!" "What d

Chapter: Chapter 296The shorter skeleton spoke, voice lighter now. "My sons, you all finally came back." It sounded relieved. "Where’s Zedekiel? And my sister?"The taller one added eagerly, "Were you guys able to get Ron back? Is that why you’re here now?"It all suddenly dawned on Ludiciel who the skeletons were and his eyes burned with unshed tears as he forced himself to speak, voice barely above a whisper, "Mother?... Mariel?""Ludiciel," The shorter skeleton laughed, a sound filled with both sorrow and joy. "I knew you'd recognize us. Unlike your little brothers who are hiding behind you."Tariel and Sariel peered cautiously from behind Ludiciel and Talon, their eyes wide with uncertainty. "Brother, are those really…?"Prince Ludiciel inhaled sharply, willing himself to believe what his heart already knew. With a flick of his wrist, he dispelled the illusion he had unknowingly placed upon them.The moment the magic faded, there they stood.The Queen Mother, regal and serene, draped in flowing pale

Chapter: Chapter 295Talon sneered, yanking him closer. "Necromancers are always weak as shit. You hide behind your army, and everyone thinks you're powerful. Look at you now. You're nothing without your magic."Hugh's swollen eyes flickered open, and to Talon’s surprise, he started laughing—a wet, gurgling disgusting sound that make Talon want to rip his throat out."You think that's all I have up my sleeve?" Hugh rasped, his lips curling into a wicked grin. His gaze flicked downward.Talon followed his eyes and felt the faintest prickling sensation crawling up his legs."You think humans and animals are the only ones whose skeletons I can call upon?" Hugh sneered. "I can call upon even insects! Those ants will bite at you till you die! Even if you kill me, they won't stop until there’s nothing left but your bones, and I will gladly add you, Phoenix King, to my army!"Talon scoffed. "Oh really?"Without hesitation, his body ignited in a pillar of flames. His form shifted, his flesh turning into golden-re

Chapter: Chapter 294"Zedekiel," he whispered shyly as he took Zedekiel’s hands in his.Zedekiel’s brows furrowed slightly in concern. "What is it? Did that thing do anything to you?" he whispered back, brushing a soft kiss against Ron’s temple. "Are you uncomfortable anywhere?"Prince Ron shook his head, biting his lip nervously. "No, it’s not that. It’s just... there’s something you need to know."Zedekiel frowned, concerned. "What is it, love? You can tell me anything."Prince Ron took a deep shaky breath, about to tell his beloved about their babies when his gaze landed on his belly and his eyes widened in utter disbelief. He completely froze as he tried to process what he was seeing.There, protruding before him, was his enormous, round belly. It was so large that he couldn’t even see his own feet.He suddenly let out a tiny squeak of horror, his face going pale and before anyone could say anything, Ron’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted on the spot.Zedekiel looked at everyone and they all began to
