Felix was behind the door and Lucian welcomed him with a glare. "How are you here? I thought you still had a few weeks left before being discharged?" Felix frowned at the mess before him before replying to Lucian. "I'd prefer being locked up in a cell for three years over that place that reeks of disinfectant and old ladies hitting on me."Lucian barked out a laugh and fist bumped with his friend. It felt good to have Felix back by his side. Everything had been chaotic in his absence. It was a relief, really. "Why's this place messy? What have you done?" Lucian surveyed his study again along with Felix who stood by his side looking confused. "I found something. A book. I think it's going to help a great deal. Can you read and understand Greek properly? Koine to be precise." Felix rolled his eyes. "Crocodiles are herbivores." Lucian left him where he stood and went to his table, feeling suddenly energized. Maybe seeing his friend was the trigger. He w
"Petl, I made a grave mistake that night and I never want to repeat it. We had sex and I take the blame for using your feelings to take advantage of you." She hit his chest. Lucian leaned forward and pulled the door shut. He didn't want the walls hearing what they had to say. "You didn't take advantage of me! I wanted it the same way you did. It was mutual."Lucian shook his head. "It wasn't, Petl. It wasn't mutual. I didn't feel anything. I only wanted to satisfy myself and I made a wrong decision by preying on you. Please, can we not talk about this?" Petl sniffed and wiped her face with the back of her sleeve. "Is this what it is? Is this what it is? Are you going to pick that lady over me? She's human, remember? She's a filthy human. From a race you despise, remember?" Lucian nodded. His eyes were distant. "I am aware of that. It's not my fault that my wolf cries for her all the time. I didn't choose this.""Nora's awake. Oh my God, she's awake!" Petl, Lucian,
Felix laughed. "Ooh, I like it when you're like this." "Let's go, boys." Alex called from outside the room. Lucian and Felix looked back to see the room empty. The only person present was Nora who was laughing at their expression of surprise. "How did he…?" "You were too engrossed in making me admit something that's not true to notice them leave the room. Let's go, dude." Lucian and Felix waved Nora goodnight and left the room. Augustus shut the door and followed them to the entrance of his house. "We'd see you at the square?" Alex asked. Augustus nodded. "What for?" Lucian asked. "Did you just ask that question?!" Felix exclaimed. Lucian looked from Felix who had a defeated expression on to Alex who was totally disappointed and to Augustus who shook his head looking amused. "What's going on?" Lucian chuckled, confused as hell. "The festival of the Lunatic is on Tuesday next week and we're going to the Town square to perform rituals for
Kevin slipped out his phone from his jacket pocket and turned it on. There was a text from his screen. It was from his wife, Adriana. She'd gone on a vacation to Maldives and had sent him pictures of her. He wasn't interested. All he wanted from her was to be discreet and not divulge her identity. Kevin swiped the message and went ahead to tap on his contact icon. He dialed a number and after three rings, the receiver picked up. "Kevin."He smiled. He'd been dying to call her for the past three days and now, hearing her speak incited nothing but warmth in him. "Maya, how are you doing?" "I miss you, Kev. When are you going to make time to see me?" Kevin heard the voice of someone familiar and looked up from his phone. It was Ryan, but this time, he wasn't alone. He was with three other men and in their hands were guns. "Can I give you a call later?" He rose from his seat. Maya sighed. "Not again. Kevin, you do this–" Kevin hung up. "I'm sorry, Maya.
"Kevin, you're not going to like what is going to come to you if you just leave without hearing me out or providing a solution to the problem on ground right now." Ryan warned. Kevin sighed and made to leave his seat only to be blocked from making a move by the desperate man. "Can I pass, please?"Ryan provided no reply. His hands went to his belt and extracted a pistol. He raised the gun to Kelvin's face and clenched his fists around the butt of the gun. Kevin spluttered a laugh. "Can you move out of my way? I don't have time to play right now. I need to be with someone." "Well, I'm sorry to tell you that you're going nowhere till you provide an answer for me. Kevin nodded, lowered his head. Before Ryan could say 'a', Kevin's left hand gripped Ryan's wrists and his right hand went around the butt of the gun. He twisted Ryan's hands and collected the gun. A proud laugh escaped his chest. "I told you. You're shocked, ay?" I can see it in your eyes. From Ke

Many changes needs to be made henceforth," Kleo placed her hands on the back of the officer's shoulder who had been casting lustful eyes at her and he quickly composed himself..“Tell me, what's your name?" She said to him and he swallowed down softly.“Alax, my Queen."“Lord Alax, do tell me what was your position during the blood father's reign?" “I was one of the generals in the royal army, my queen." He replied somewhat proudly.“I am sure you served the blood father well but I won't be needing your services any longer." She said,“B.. But why? my queen." He looked shocked.“Do you really want me to answer that question? Perhaps then you will know the gravity of your crimes." She said in an intense manner and he buried his face in shame.“Get him out of my sight, this minute." She ordered and two soldiers dragged him away.Everyone
