"Way too dangerous," he had said? Ethan mocked his pathetic life. His instincts screamed at him that he was insane, crazy, and utterly preposterous for being here—at the doorstep of Professor Lucian.

This was the place he had fled in fear, yet here he was again. He pulled out his phone, staring at Professor Lucian's number, hesitating to call and announce his presence.

If the man killed him tonight, would it make any difference? Besides, life was all about taking risks.

Ethan wanted to run, to flee without looking back, but that wasn’t an option. His mother life was on the line. He had to save her.

"Yes?" Professor Lucian's deep, husky voice resonated on the other end of the line, sending a chill down Ethan's spine.

"I'm here," he announced, his voice barely a whisper. He could imagine the sly smile that Professor Lucian would surely have on his face right now.

"Get in."

Ethan ended the call and took a deep breath, gathering what little courage he had left as he advanced toward the exquisite building.

Before he could ring the doorbell, the door beeped and slid open, inviting him in. His eyes took in the barely familiar room, and he wondered what kind of person Professor Lucian was to own such an imposing domain.

His gaze landed on Lucian's tall, formidable figure in the kitchen, pouring himself a drink. Muscles rippled beneath his bare skin, strong enough to break a man's neck. Tattoos sprawled across his torso, dark and speaking of untold stories.

Even though his muscles were concealed beneath a red robe, Ethan could guess the details of his frame.

Lucian looked terrifying, especially with his piercing gaze that seemed to bore right through Ethan’s soul.

"Uhmm..." Ethan cleared his throat. "T-the money... you said you'd give me... ten thousand dollars if I came over?"

He watched as Professor Lucian picked up his phone from the table. His fingers danced over the screen, and in the next moment, Ethan's phone beeped.

Ten thousand dollars, right there, staring at him!

What?!

Wait, how did he even know his details? That's creepy.

"Amusing that the first thing on your mind is money. Are you that desperate?" Professor Lucian asked, turning to face him. Ethan's heart nearly leaped out of his chest.

The dim light in the room illuminated Lucian's features: flawless skin, a strikingly chiseled jaw, a sharp nose, and kissable lips.

Ethan didn’t realize how long he had been staring until Lucian’s voice snapped him back to reality. "Are you done staring?"

"Huh?" Ethan averted his gaze, scolding himself inwardly. He must be insane for admiring a man’s features, especially one who terrified him.

"I needed the money to pay for my mom's hospital bills," he replied, his voice barely audible.

"Weak humans," Lucian mumbled, and Ethan could only clench his fists at his sides.

"Thanks for the money," Ethan said reluctantly. Though he felt a twinge of offense at Lucian's words, he was still grateful. Not only had he saved his life, but he gave him money.

He could imagine what he could cover with this money: debts, his mother’s treatment, and overdue rent.

Yet... he feared and wondered what Professor Lucian truly wanted from him.

"Come with me," Professor Lucian demanded, striding into his lavish bedroom. The walls were seamless, polished gray. A floor-to-ceiling window dominated one side, revealing a breathtaking view of the city lights twinkling below, filtered through thick automated blackout curtains.

Ethan stood at the threshold, taking in the sight of Lucian sitting on his oversized, messy bed draped with charcoal gray silk sheets that nearly pooled on the floor. Ethan finally noticed just how disorganized the room was.

A pack of condoms, a red lace panty, and a white shirt lay scattered on the marble floor. Ethan swallowed hard, imagining what might have happened here; even the room's scent was different.

"Do you intend to stand there all night?" Lucian’s deep voice cut through the silence.

Ethan swallowed, forcing himself to step inside. He felt like prey entering a predator's den. The air thickened as Lucian's sharp gaze roamed over his body, leaving him feeling exposed and vulnerable.

Goosebumps raced over his skin. It was disturbing how Lucian's gaze made his heart race, driving him to the brink of madness in the tense silence.

"What do you plan to... do with me?" Ethan asked, keeping his gaze averted.

Lucian's lips curled into a smirk as he stood and approached slowly, each step making Ethan tremble.

"Did you feel it?" Lucian questioned, and Ethan shot him a confused look. Feel what? "The unmistakable pull between us..." He leaned in, their faces inches apart.

"I... I don't know what you're talking about," Ethan stuttered, taking a step backward to create space, but Lucian crossed the distance.

"You've perhaps guessed what happened here. I attempted to satisfy my urges with a woman not long ago, but it didn’t work because you're occupying my mind."

What is he talking about?!...

Ethan breath hitched as his back pressed against the wall, anxiety coursing through him at their proximity.

Lucian placed both hands beside him, trapping him against the wall, gazing at him with an intensity that sent chills down Ethan’s spine.

'What is he going to do to me? Men shouldn’t stare at men like that. Why is my heart racing? This is crazy; I need to get out of here. He’s not human, he’s dangerous, and I don’t like this,' Ethan thought, trying to speak, but Lucian’s lips moved to his neck, brushing his tongue along his skin.

Ethan’s knees weakened, his fists clenched as he tried to prevent the moan that threatened to tear out of his throat. He felt Lucian’s fingers trail up to his brown hair, tilting his neck slightly to gain better access.

Ethan’s breathing grew heavier. His body ignited from just the kiss on his neck and Lucian’s hold on his torso. It stirred something in him. His lips parted as he tried to find the words to stop him. He tried to move, but his body betrayed him, wanting to give in—

He didn’t like this. He didn’t like this at all.

Using the last thread of sanity, Ethan managed to snap back to reality and push Lucian, though his force did nothing as the man didn’t even flinch.

His action angered him. Lucian took both of Ethan’s hands and slammed them against the wall above him, making Ethan wince at the pain that shot through his arms. A low, guttural growl tore out from Lucian’s throat—cold, menacing, and carrying a deadly warning.

For a fleeting moment, Ethan saw Lucian's eyes flash red, freezing him completely—his heart skipping a beat in terror as Lucian glared at him.

After a moment, paralyzed by Lucian's gaze, Ethan heard him order in a thick, demanding voice.

"Strip."

    "W-why would I do that?" Even with how terrifying Lucian looked at the moment, Ethan managed to question him. Despite trembling under his hold and sweating as if he were staring death in the face, he still found the courage to defy his order.If it had been someone else, Lucian would have snapped their neck and watched their blood drain from their body. Hell, he wanted to do just that, his fingers was hitching-- but not with Ethan."Would you like me to do it for you?" Lucian asked, his face still an inch away, his voice dripping with venom.Ethan swallowed hard. "Y... you’re—" he paused and cleared his dry throat. "You’re still holding my hands, sir."Lucian’s gaze shifted to Ethan’s trapped hands and then back to his face. He released him and waited for him to comply."Well... uh, Mr. Lucian..." Ethan began with a stutter. "Well, the thing is... I, uh... I’m not into men, and I..." That was all Ethan could say before he felt his feet leave the floor.The movement was too quick for h

    "A male mate?" Eric turned to face Lucian, who stood by the window, staring blankly at the city below. "It's not so bad. It's not as if you haven't mounted a male before," he mumbled, sinking into the couch.Lucian glanced over his shoulder, his gaze icy. "I was in a rut... and clearly, he was a werewolf without a terrible personality.. like being a weak human."Eric reached for the glass of alcohol beside him and took a small sip. "Just accept it, Lucian. You've waited so long for this. It was a cursed bond, meant to either break you or fix you. Try to see the bright side..."Lucian shut his eyes at the foolish words of his closest friend, Alpha Eric—the only person who didn’t shrink in fear at the sight of him."Fix me?" Lucian let out a dark, ominous chuckle. "He was bullied, almost killed by his own peers. If I hadn't come to save him, he’d be dead. Fragile, forgetful, asks too many questions, and cries a lot. Do you think someone with that kind of personality could be my mate and

    Ethan swallowed hard, his throat dry. He tried to find his words, but his voice refused to cooperate as Lucian's cold gaze pinned him. The man before him was beyond mad—he could feel it."I... I didn't mean to..." Ethan quickly stood and stammered, his heart pounding against his chest."Mean to what?" Lucian interrupted, his cold aura unyielding. "Did you think I'd let off the hook?""No... I was going to return your money. I'll work hard and give it back to you. But living with you, I... I can't do that," Ethan said quickly, panic bubbling in his chest."I don’t give a damn about what you can or cannot do?" Lucian raised a brow, his voice laced with irritation. "When I give you an order, you obey, little mate."Ethan's fists clenched, a pang of defiance sparking in his nerves. "You can't just expect me to jump at every one of your demands. I have my own life too... I appreciate your help, and I'm going to pay you back—"Lucian's brows furrowed.Ethan continued, "I'll work day and nig

This sensation surging through him didn’t feel right.Every fiber of his being wanted to stop the man behind him, but his body betrayed him, shredding the last piece of pride he had left. He let the sensation build to its peak.A light gasp escaped his lips as his eyes caught sight of his hard, erect organ. How could this be?"Stop... hnngh..." He tried to struggle against Lucian's hold, but it was no use.The man's fingers continued to tease and poke his sensitivity inside, making him gasp for air. His moans filled the room as tears pricked the corners of his eyes."Pl...ease stop... we shouldn’t... urgh...""Your body says otherwise, Ethan," Lucian whispered into his ear, his warm breath brushing against Ethan’s skin.The sight of Ethan’s struggle excited Lucian beyond measure. It took every ounce of restraint he had not to t

    "How about this one?" Eric asked, gesturing to a white T-shirt that hung on a nearby rack. Ethan blinked in surprise."What are you doing?" he replied, confusion evident in his voice."What does it look like I'm doing?" Eric raised an eyebrow, his smile fading slightly.Ethan surveyed the spacious clothing store, filled with luxurious garments neatly arranged in different sections. He shifted uncomfortably, his gaze settling on the tag of the T-shirt.Seven grand for just a shirt!"I... I don’t want this," he stammered. Eric glanced at the shirt, frowning slightly. "But this would look really nice on you! Why don’t you like it? Come on, tell me your tastes...""I don’t want it. Why is a stranger suddenly buying me clothes? What do you want?" Ethan asked, his expression blank. He wouldn’t have come out with Eric if Ben hadn’t assured him he wasn’t a threat.Besides, he thought, he might gather a bit of information about who Lucian really was...Eric scratched his head awkwardly.

    Ethan couldn't shake off what Eric had told him. Though Eric was intimidating, he was still far better than Lucian. His mind was consumed by the shocking reality that werewolves existed and that he was mated to one.Not just any werewolf, but a Lycan.Ethan had asked why he, of all people, was chosen as Lucian's mate, but Eric had refused to explain. He sensed there was much more to this situation."I know you don't want this, but you have to figure it out. Breaking the bond will have side effects for both of you," Eric's words echoed in his mind.Ethan sighed; none of this made sense. He didn't want to get entangled in these bizarre supernatural affairs, yet deep inside him, something strange was stirring, and he couldn't identify it."Mister Wave," the doctor called, snapping him out of his trance. "Your mother's diagnosis went well, but there's still more to come. Soon, we'll get to the root of the issue and find a cure. You just need to hang on a little longer."Ethan sighed. "Whe

    "Excuse me?" Ethan whispered, his voice barely audible but carrying a tone of defiance. "You heard me," Lucian answered, his voice deep and commanding. The smirk on his face remained, making Ethan's skin crawl. Go on his knees. Ethan had a slight idea of what he wanted. Smacking his hand away, Ethan snapped, "I'm not someone you can manipulate. You know what? Keep your money; I'll get a loan from the bank. I've got a job to start paying for it, and if you think I would submit to you... then you're totally wrong!" Anger flashed in Lucian's eyes, his brow furrowed as his aura shifted to one that made Ethan step back instinctively. It was his beast surfacing, and unknown to him, its color changed. His eyes flashed gold. A vein pulsed on his jaw. Run. Ethan, you've just upset this man, and he might snap your head off. Before Ethan could turn, Lucian grabbed his neck like a vice, drawing him close. Ethan's chest slammed against Lucian's broad chest, a gasp escaping his lips.

    “Wait!” Ethan yelled as Lucian pressed his length against him. His head was still pinned down to the counter, and he could see Lucian’s length through the corner of his eyes.Hard and ērected, his organ stood firm and huge. He had never thought someone would actually will be this enormous.Damn! The abs and torso screams perfection. Every ridge and lines. He stood like a terrifying Greek God, yet, Ethan couldn't help but drool over him.But then, could he take it? Having this length in him?… It was going to tear him apart.Lucian tried again pressing his tip against his fold.“I said wait!” Ethan yelled again, and Lucian scrowled.“The fuck do you want now?”“I… I don't think I can take it,” heat crept Ethan's face, he looked away in embarrassment. He couldn't believe this was happening.“Fine,” Lucian growled, his voice utterly impatient. Grabbing Ethan's arm, he led him to his room and pushed him to the bed, then reached for the lube in his drawer.Ethan watched with racing heart

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.

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.

    "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.

    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?

    The ward turned silent. Too silent—one could hear a pin drop. Ethan could hear his heartbeat racing—too hard, too fast—and he thought he might really faint right then, but that wasn’t his concern right now… What in the motherfûcking world had Lucian just spilled out? Lucian winked at him, and Ethan felt like gouging those eyes out—perhaps even cutting off his tongue too. “We’ll see again, Mrs. Wave,” Lucian inclined his head gently and began leaving. Then Yara’s laughter broke the silence, her eyes shut as she almost collapsed back on her bed. Lucian, who was about to touch the door, froze and glanced back at her.m, wondering why she suddenly find him funny. “Your boss is so funny.” Ethan, getting the hint that his mother hadn’t believed Lucian, quickly rushed to shove him out before he could say anything else. Yara blinked in confusion. Lucian, who staggered outside, shot a glare at Ethan as the door slid shut. “What the fuck…” “Shh!” Ethan quickly clamped his
