Iris's POV

I was surrounded by more creatures, both male and female that looked like Barbrooke.

“Who are you? And what do you want?” I asked, as I tried to keep my gazes on each one of them.

There were about five of them, plus Barbrooke making them six.

“Ah, she's a new one.” One exclaimed and the others began repeating the words, guwaffing.

“Yes, a stupid one at that. She called flowers boring!” Barbrooke yelled.

The others' eyes widened, like they had just heard a taboo.

“She called flowers what?” One of the females shouted.

“Boring!” Barbrooke exclaimed.

“How dare she?” Another howled.

“Let’s deal with her immediately.” One said.

“I wish we could, but the madam is not back yet. She's busy.” Barbrooke shook his head solemnly.

“Wait! But we could have some fun with her, a little designs and carving on her skin doesn't sound bad. And besides we aren't going deep, the madam would love it!” The woman from earlier shouted.

“Yes!”

“Yes!”

“Yes!”

The others chanted repeatedly, and I could s

    Iris's POV I rummaged through his pockets, and I found a bunch of keys. I picked it up, rushing towards the man.“Don't worry mister, you'll be free soon.” I said as I inserted one of the keys into the lock of the chain to which he was bound.It didn't work. There were numerous keys, and I didn't know which one was for his lock. “Please, please, please.” I muttered as I kept on trying different keys.I had to set him free before someone catches me. If I were caught, I’d be as good as dead and I didn't even want to think about what they would do to me.“Don't bother about it. Even if you managed to get the lock open, I wouldn't still be free.” The man said, shaking his head with a small smile.“Huh? What do you mean mister?” I paused.“You see, I’ve been here for a long time and they've extracted so much pain from me that I’m just not moved by it. I bet my pains must have broken a great deal of the realm.” He chuckled dryly.“I don't understand…” I looked at him, confused.“First of

    Lucian's POV I jumped into the hole in the book, ignoring Ariel's scream. The only thing on my mind was seeing Iris safe. After falling for a long time, I landed on flowers. I hadn't been to this realm before, but the seer at the council had been able to peel into what it looked like. A place filled with flowers, trees and colourful butterflies which was the perfect illusion in contrast to what was actually going on here.I looked around, but there was no sign of anybody. The mansion where the prisoners were kept should be nearby. Iris must have been taken by the floweries.I hopped from tree to tree, advancing forward but I found no mansion. There was no route and that made it harder. Everywhere was just covered by silly, annoying flowers that irked me. The place was too bright to my liking.As I hopped on another tree, I felt something pierced me from my back. I reached out for it and pulled it out, it was an arrow. I guess my presence has been noticed.I continued hopping from tr

    “You’re interesting.” A feminine voice said.I turned to see the queen of the floweries sitting on her throne, decked with numerous flowers.I simply ignored and faced Iris, with the intent to leave with her.“Please let's save them too.” She begged, her eyes filled with worry as she stared back at the tattered man and the young woman.She watched me, waiting for a response but I said nothing.“I’ll take that as a yes.” She mumbled as she rushed to loosen them both.The guards only watched with frowns on their faces, and gritted teeth. The corpse of their subordinates was enough warning to keep away from me.She loosened them before they began whispering something amongst themselves. Then with sad eyes, she held the hands of the young woman and looked back at the man who had an assuring smile on.“Now that you’ve riled them up, how do we leave here alive?” She whispered.“Don't worry, little mouse.” I said, patting her hair and the expression on her face was priceless.“We might be ca

He just saved me, and a stranger we both didn't know.Lucian spoke like it was my fault that the book dragged me in. He spoke to me like I was some curious kid that touches everything she sees. I was in the library, I picked a book to read without knowing how dangerous it was. Maybe I should have just ignored the book, then all these wouldn't happen. But then, I was grateful that I was alive thanks to him, and I was able to save someone else from a horrible fate.My heart was saddened by the thought of the mister I had met. If the queen of the floweries kept to her words, then the man would be safe. I couldn't believe I just went through such an ordeal, and meeting psychopaths who had twisted ideas of happiness.

    Lucian’s POV After I left Iris’s room, I received the book of illusions from Ivan. It was to be returned to the council for it to be kept holy ground; its rightful place.I walked to the general library, with the intent of seeing Kael. There was more to Iris, and it was slowly becoming more evident. It would be bad if news of her upcoming ability gets to the wrong ears.Not everyone could see Kael, even some of the powerful beings couldn't see him, yet Iris who was wolf-less, saw him. “Show yourself, idiot.” I said, as I hopped onto a table, tilting my head to the side.“You haven't changed, disrespectful brat.” A child’s voice echoed in the library.“You speak a lot for someone so small. Don't forget I could easily stomp on you, and you’d be forgotten, kid.” I smirked.“Don't call me that!” He snapped. “You remind me of a girl I met earlier. She saw me as a kid and spoke to me like I was her little brother or something. Urggh.” He groaned.My lips curled, I knew who he was referrin

I was done for, his cold, icy blue eyes stared straight at me that I felt he could see my thoughts.What should I do? Should I run? “Yes, run!” A voice whispered.I took another step backwards, gulping. I opened my mouth to say something, but no word came out. Then he slowly stood, and I could see how tall he was. “Damn it.” I muttered as I backed away. Lucian took one step forward, covering all the steps I had taken. Was he trying to show off the fact that he had long legs?The more he got closer, I took a step backwards till my back hit the table. He stood right in front of me, that we were barely an inch apart. I panicked, my heart beat increasing. At this rate, I feared I might have a heart attack.“I’m…I’m sorry. I…I..I didn't mean to do that.” I apologised, my last resort.He said nothing, still staring at me intently and I was tempted to ask if there was someth

    Lucian’s POV Iris looked so scared as she backed away slowly. Her eyes widened that she looked like a little mouse caught stealing or doing something wrong; and that she was.I watched every single expression that passed through her face. She was all over the place, too scared of me. Strangely, I couldn't explain what I felt now. I should be happy that she was scared of me, after all, I couldn't let her get too close or think I was a bit kind.She was having a good time, poking my face with the end of a feather and it was obviously an act of revenge. Then she began stuttering that she was sorry. But we both knew she didn't mean it one bit. I said nothing but instead kept my gaze on her which only worsened things on her part.And I intentionally stood close to her, knowing how much fear it would put in her.

    Lucian’s POVAfter I was done with breakfast, I went to my study. Through my father's portrait, I went through the secret void and down to the secret dungeon. “Milord.” One of the dungeon guards walked towards me, bowing.“Where's the head guard?”“He is inspecting the prisoners. Do you want me to go get him?”“Yes.” Few seconds later, he arrived with the head guard.“Milord.” He bowed.“Get me Raj.” I ordered.He bowed and left while I waited. A moment later, he arrived dragging a chained Raj whose expression turned to the one of fear immediately he saw me.“Let me go! Ahhh, somebody, help me!” He yelled.“Aren't you tired of this Raj? Screaming for help when you know clearly that no one would come to save you. Pathetic.” I said, my teeth clicking.“Guess what Raj? You’d be seeing the sunset today. I'm taking you out, and it's going to be fun.” I flashed him a grin.“Please stop. I think the torture you’ve made me pass through is enough for my crimes. Just kill me already.” He sobb

    Iris's POV When she mentioned that she couldn't remember her family, I suggested we take a break and talk about the issue at hand. I was sure it had something to do with the book.“When did you notice that you couldn't remember anything about your family?” I asked.“Let's say…some years after I was sucked into the book. It's like after each day of torture, a part of my memories gets wiped away. But I do know that I have a family. Who they are, I can't seem to remember. Who I was, I don't know.” She punched the neatly trimmed grass frustratingly.“I hate to be a burden to anyone. I followed you, thinking that if I got to the real world, I might remember something but it seemed it only got worse.” She rose up, dusting her trousers.“It isn't your fault, it's not like you did it on purpose. I'm sure your family would be looking for you. We can put up poster or something, then your family can come find you. But until then, you can stay here.” I offered her a smile which she returned.I d
