Ethan frozen, his eyes wide opened, threatening to pop out of its socket. How the hell did he know that?!Lucian hadn't seen or caught them in the act, so how?“Do not think you can lie to me boy. I can hear your heart beat,” Lucian warned, his voice, like slik dripped with vemom making Ethan’s heart raced harder.This bad. This is really bad!Telling him would make things worse, putting Martin or Charlie in trouble. There are so many things that might go wrong, things he doesn't want to think about.“I…” Ethan almost choked at his words and out of panic, he blurted. “I don't know what you're talking about.”CLASH!Lucian swiftly smashed his plate onto the nearest wall. Both Eric's and Ethan's eyes widened at once as Lucian stood.“Hey, Lucian” Eric called, standing too as Lucian strode towards Ethan who stood frozen at his spot.Gripping Ethan by the shirt, Lucian pulled him close, his cold glare boring into him. “I just told you not to lie, and you fucking did.”Ethan tried to stead
“What is he going to do to them if he manages to find them?” Ethan asked Eric worriedly, trying his best to keep his voice steady despite the storm within him.With the way Lucian had treated him back at the mansion, Martin and Charlie might be in serious danger.“Are they close to you? Someone you can avoid?” Eric inquired, his voice gentle as he took a sip from his coffee.“They attend the same college as me. Same college where Professor Lucian teaches. One is even in my class. He quite unavoidable because he's kind of popular in school."“Wait, did you just say ‘he’? Like, a guy?” Eric raised a brow, his eyes slightly widening.“Yeah, a guy named Martin. He transferred to the school recently, and he’s my seatmate,” Ethan replied.Eric sighed, scratching his head as he leaned back in his chair. “Great, because that’s actually screwed up. I think you should maybe skip school for a while until the scent fades from Lucian’s memory, which is going to take a while.”“Skip school?” Ethan
Thrust.It hurt.Thrust.It was so rough than the first time he was mounted. Pain and blur pleasure.Ethan gripped the sheets tight, his body jolting as Lucian slammed into him from behind, giving him no chance to breathe."Urgh… sir… go easy, please," Ethan rasped, shutting his eyes tight. It hurt because he wasn’t ready.m enough.But Lucian wasn’t listening. He didn’t seem to be in his right mind. His fangs were bared, and his glowing golden eyes said it all.It felt like Lucian was about to split him in half.In the darkness, Lucian’s eyes stayed bright gold. His incredibly built frame was on full display, muscles flexing as he held Ethan’s waist firmly, slamming his length in and out of him.For a brief moment, Lucian pulled out, and Ethan glanced back in confusion—only for Lucian to shove himself back in.Hard. Full. Deep.The sudden movement hit that sensitive spot inside him, and Ethan’s mind went wild.“Fuck!!!” Ethan cried out, his body shaking violently as a strange tingling
The sun rose, peeking through the curtain, its golden hue settling on Lucian’s face, stirring him from his sleep.Slowly, his eyes fluttered open to a room he barely recognized. This wasn’t his room.Wait! He had slept?Lucian moved, but an arm draped around his torso stopped him. He glanced down, and another wave of shock hit him.Ethan? Why the fûck was Ethan here… with him… while he slept?His heart raced, and fear and concern clouded his mind.Lucian quickly removed the duvet covering Ethan, expecting to see blood or a splitted body. But instead, his eyes met Ethan's naked body, marred with red marks—ones he had inflicted last night out of desire.The boy was in one piece. That was… strange.Lucian could barely recall how he got there. He remembered shifting into his full Lycan form and running aimlessly in the woods. After that, he returned… and then the memories struck him.The way he had mounted Ethan, hard and wild, how Ethan had taken every brutal thrust… Lucian was shocked a
Ethan whimpered as pain struck his waist. It was dull yet sharp—a reminder of how rough Lucian had handled him last night.His legs felt weak, making him wonder what would have happened if Lucian hadn’t passed out. No, he didn’t want to think about it.He didn’t want to think about any of it.Chatter rose in the classroom. Ethan looked up, meeting Martin’s gaze as he stepped into the class. Martin’s brows knitted in confusion when he realized Ethan had changed his seat.Ethan averted his eyes, placing them on his notebook, guilt gnawing at him. Martin had apologized. Under normal circumstances, it would have been wrong to act this way, but the situation was different now. It was for Martin’s own good.Without a word, Martin sat in his usual seat—right beside Ethan’s old one.Twilight seized the opportunity, sitting next to him with a bright smile.“Hey, Mart,” she greeted him.Martin barely glanced at her before turning back to the board.“What happened between you and the loser?” she
CLASS“Becca, are you okay?” Twilight asked, noticing her friend’s flushed face and clenched fists.Becca gritted her teeth. “That man is the devil, Twilight! He humiliated me!”Twilight raised a brow. “What happened?”Becca crossed her arms, inhaling a sharp breath. “I tried to… charm him, but he called Vice Chancellor Katherine on me. Can you believe that?”Twilight gasped, her eyes wide with shock. “Wait, what?! He actually called her?”“Yeah, and he didn’t even blink while doing it. Cold bastard!” Becca fumed.Twilight couldn’t help but laugh, though she tried to stifle it. “Well, what did you expect? He doesn’t seem like the type to fall for games like that.”"What's so funny!" Becca snapped at her with a scrowl and Twilight smile dropped. Determination flashed in Becca's eyes. "I’m not done with him yet.”Martin, overhearing their conversation, glanced at Ethan, who was still busy with his notes. He could tell Ethan was trying hard to distract himself and wasn't fully focused o
Handcuffed.Never had Ethan thought he would ever wear these. Never in his life did he imagine that one day he’d be this humiliated.He badly wished what was happening to him was a cruel nightmare—a nightmare he desperately wanted to wake up from.But it was real.At this moment, he stared down at his hands, cuffed like a criminal.It triggered a painful memory—a memory seared into his mind. He had just returned from school only to find several cops pinning his father to the floor. One had a gun to his head while others harshly restrained and chained him down.Murderer!“I didn’t do it! I didn’t kill anyone! This is a fucking mistake!” His father, Rowan, cried out while his mother, Yara, struggled helplessly against the officers blocking her path.“Father!” Ethan’s eyes welled up as the officers pressed his father’s head hard against the floor, ignoring his cries of pain.“You’re hurting him!” Ethan yelled, surging forward, but one of them shoved him aside. “He’s not like that! Let my
“You'll rot here!”Yeah, he heard that, and now those words were finally sinking in.He knew what he did was impulsive and that he should have just kept it in, but at the same time, he couldn't bring himself to beg. They wouldn't just listen.Ethan sighed, lowered his head, staring at the floor and wondering how many hours he had spent confined in here.Footsteps echoed, approaching, followed by the clanking sounds of the cell door.Ethan looked up at the officer opening his cell.“Someone is here to pick you up.”Was it Lucian? Was he back?Ethan couldn't help but wonder as they led him through the corridor. However, a slight wave of disappointment washed over him as he sighted the person who had come to pick him up.It was Martin.Ethan scolded himself inwardly. Why in the world was he expecting Lucian to be here when the man was out of the country, doing whatever?“Hey, Ethan,” Martin walked past the officer to meet him. He noticed the slight red swell on Ethan’s face. “What happen
While feeding Lucian, Ethan could feel Lucian's gaze the whole time. The male didn't for a moment stop staring and he didn't mind.Though his heart raced at intensity, he still continue to feed him and he obediently took them all to the last bite.Ethan cleared the plate and walked back to his with a glass of water. He offered but Lucian didn't accept, still staring.Ethan sighed, who would have thought Lucian has this kid side of him.Gently, he placed the tip of the cup on Lucian's lips, gently titling I pour the water into his mouth. Lucian drank till the last drop, watching Ethan dropped the glass away."Have you eaten?" Lucian finally spoke.Ethan folded his arms across his chest. "Yeah?""Uhm" Lucian cleared him throat. "Thanks""Are you just going to keep staring or you're going to tell me, what in the world is going on?" Ethan asked. "You promised to tell me. Now I wanna every one of it. Don't dare skip anything because I would be so mad at you if I find out" he warned."Fine
‘Lucian!’‘Please come back to me!’‘I’m sorry.’‘Come back!!’Lucian gasped awake on the bed, sweat dripping down his forehead, his chest heaving as he tried to catch his breath, eyes darting around.His room?Wait. How did he get here?His brows furrowed as he collected his memories. Right—Zeno took Ethan, and he had gone to save him, and...Lucian froze, his brows knitting further. He sat up immediately, eyes wide. He couldn't remember what happened next.‘Stay away!’Ethan's voice echoed. Lucian hissed as his head throbbed. Shit!Ethan had yelled at him. Rejected him. Had been scared of him, and he had...Why the fuck couldn’t he remember?!Lucian swung the sheet from his body, rose from the bed, and burst out of his room. Breath heavy, eyes darting frantically, he settled them on Butler Ben.“Ethan,” he breathed worriedly, approaching Ben. “Where is he?…”“Uh…” Before Ben could reply, another voice sounded.“Lucian?”Lucian’s head snapped around, sighting the person he was desper
"Let me out of here, bastard!" Ethan yelled at the men."Seriously, are you not going to gag him?" one of them spoke, staring at Ethan in disgust."Yeah... I better," the second said, eyes searching for a rope."He's going to kill you all, bastards!" Ethan yelled again.The one who seemed to be the boss of the men in the room chuckled.He stepped forward, dark eyes glittering with amusement as he crouched before Ethan and grabbed his jaw."Kill us?" he drawled mockingly. "That little professor of yours is probably dead by now. All we're waiting for is Zeno's call before we cut your guts open."Ethan jerked his face away, trying to mask his fear. He was terrified, but he didn’t want to give these men what they wanted.The man barked a short laugh. "Look at you, trying to act tough. No one is coming to save you, boy. Just say your last words instead."Could they be right?Is Lucian coming? Will he find him?Suddenly, the temperature in the room dropped.A chill crept down their spines.
Martin gasped, hearing the gunshots, his head snapping toward the door.What the hell was that?Are they shooting Mr. Black? And if so… why did they have to shoot so many bullets to bring him down?What did you expect, Martin? Perhaps Mr. Black brought his men.But he had clearly heard Mr. Black came with just the man named Eric.A groan tore through his throat. He was gagged, hands tied behind him. Every part of him ached. He needed to get out of here and find Ethan before they hurt him.Once Zeno was done here, he planned to take Ethan's life—and he couldn't let that happen.“Shut the hell up!” the man watching him snapped, but Martin didn’t stop struggling against the rope, letting out muffled sounds.“Shut up!” the man yelled but clutched his ears as the gunshots sounded even louder.“Shit! Just how many men did Mr. Black bring?”A scream pierced the air the moment the gunshots stopped, followed by the sickening crack of bones and the tear of flesh…Then a guttural growl—one that
“But I want to help,” Xander insisted. “The tracker can…”“We know everything before you came. Even the location of where Ethan is,” Eric said, and Xander's face went pale. “Seriously? Why did you think it was easy for Martin to take Ethan?”Right. Xander had thought about that too. Mr. Black wouldn't let his security slip around Ethan after Mr. Moore's attack.Xander glanced at Lucian, who still hadn't spoken a word. This man was hella dangerous.“Your method was pretty cool but very old. I'm sure your father already suspected your movements and might have seen through Martin.” Eric continued. “Nice effort, kid.”“Ah,” Lucian let out a deep sigh. “I can't believe I lost the bet.” His eyes finally fluttered open.Then he rose to his feet, locking gaze with Xander. His piercing gaze made Xander wonder if this was truly the professor in their school.It was as though his menacing aura had just increased tenfold.He approached with light, steady, and deliberate steps. If Xander weren't
"Urgh! Let me out of here!”“Martin!”Martin's jaw clenched as Ethan's voice trailed behind him while he headed to the car with Zeno and a few men.He took a last glance at the restricted building in the middle of the woods before entering the car. Zeno had chosen this location so Ethan would be hard to find.It was several miles away from the city; barely a soul could be seen around here.After almost an hour of driving, Zeno spoke, breaking the silence in the car.“Where the hell is Xander?” he asked, while Martin kept his gaze on the passing view outside the car window.“I don't know,” he replied.“Ha… don't give me that kind of crappy answer. You expect me to believe you don't know where your bastard brother is?” Zeno barked out a soft laugh. “I thought you both were close; I guess that’s wrong. How could you not have told him you were about to betray your friend?”“Because you asked me not to tell anyone,” Martin's fists clenched. “And, point of correction… Ethan is not my friend
He didn't return last night.Ethan bit the inside of his cheek. Lucian wasn’t home.What could have kept him so busy that he didn’t show up? What could be the reason?Another woman?Ethan slammed his palm against his forehead. Don’t think like that, Ethan. You can’t be insecure. Lucian hasn’t been with any other woman ever since he met him.But why did he worry so much about him? It felt like he couldn’t breathe properly when Lucian wasn’t around for too long. It had been almost two days, and he was missing him.Could it be because Lucian was investigating his father’s case or it was simply due to his work?Ethan sighed. He asked himself too many questions. He should be more worried about the school that was about to kick him out.Ethan’s phone rang, and with a swift movement, he reached for it.The hospital?“Mr. Wave… your mother has gone into a critical state…”That was all Ethan allowed himself to hear before bolting out of the room, ignoring Butler Ben’s voice calling after him.
“Help who again?”Eric drew in a deep breath, fully aware that Lucian had heard him the first time but chose to pretend he hadn't. Classic Lucian.“Luther’s sons.”A laugh broke from Lucian’s throat—light and soft at first, then growing louder until it echoed through the four corners of the private club room.Eric waited patiently for him to finish. He knew it would be damn near impossible to convince this crazy male to help them—mostly because of Martin. Lycans don’t forget their enemies.They don’t forgive, and they sure as hell don’t forget. Once you’re on their blacklist, you stay there forever.Especially someone as crazy as his friend here.And when they finally strike, Lycans tend to wipe out every trace of their enemies—including their offspring.Mr. Moore wasn’t the only victim. The poor man lost everything in a blink, including his son. Now, it’s as if that fool never existed.Lycans do give warnings, though. Once, twice... and by the third time, the victim finds out what de
A ragged cough tore from his throat, his fist rising to his mouth. Yara gave him a worried look and pointed to the bottled water on the table beside him. Ethan reached for it and drank nearly half the contents. He cleared his throat and gave Yara a quick smile. “What kind of work did you do though? All these things are so expensive. How come he got them for me? I don’t think I can accept them. They’re all too much.” Ethan’s eyes darted. He needed to change the topic. “What kind of job do you do, Ethan?” “I…” Ethan paused. What could he say? Should he reveal everything from the start? How he met Lucian, his brutality, his true nature, the bond between them... Ethan realized so much had happened in such a short span of time. He couldn’t say it all—well, not yet. And he didn’t want to lie to his mother either. “Oh my!” Yara gasped, eyes wide. Ethan looked at her, confused. “Huh? Mom, what’s wrong?” “Don’t tell me you’re doing something illegal. Did you join some gangster sh*t?
