Promised to the Tyrant Dreams or Reality?
“Father, father, I am sorry, I will not be scared again.” the cute boy cried, as tears drizzled down from his eyes onto his plum cheeks. He ran after the man into an office, and I unwillingly followed behind or more precisely swept behind them. Where was I? I tried to look around, but my body had limited mobility. I was only able to see the scene in front of me. “How many times have I asked you not to call me that? You are not to call me that ever unless you want to be punished.” the man screamed, while the boy just hung his head down in submission as he stood in front of the man, who it seemed was his father. The boy was barely six or seven years old, his face lit with innocence. But his body had already begun to change. The round chubbiness had started giving way to straight-line muscle in the rest of his body. It was as if he was overworked or over-exercised at that tender age. Even his cheeks which were still childlike and cute had begun to lose their chubbiness. “Is that cle
Promised to the Tyrant The Photograph
"Do you know him?" Set asked, as all the eyes in that room looked at me for an answer.I looked at the photograph in my hand long and hard. It was definitely him, the man who was hitting that little boy. Just like I had remembered, his features were lined on his face perfectly and complimented his thick mane of hair that surely gave his tall self some extra inches. Even in this portrait-style photograph, he looked large. But this person in this photograph was different in many ways, he looked a lot younger and a lot happier, in the photograph. There was a light in his eyes, and he was smiling at the person who had taken this picture."No, I don’t," I said. I was not lying when I said that, I truly did not know who this man was. I did not know know him. And what was I going to tell them, that I had hallucinated this man?I was thrust into this world of these blessed beings and werewolves, but despite knowing all that, my hallucinating about a man felt utterly stupid. I must have seen or
Promised to the Tyrant New Friends
Our conversation from last evening still played in my mind as I got out of literature class the next day.That man was their father. Did that mean the child was Lucifer? I recalled seeing the mark on Lucifer’s back that carved his back from left to right, moving to his hip. Was he that boy? But how was it possible? How could I see that memory or whatever it was? After losing my sleep over it last night, I had made up my mind that I would speak to Avo about it, only to find out in the morning that he left with Lucifer and Set. Apparently, something urgent came up again. They had told me that they would be making some inquiries over the next few weeks, but I didn’t think they would leave so soon.I was still fidgeting with my locket when one of the girls passing by gave me a warm smile, the very first one that I had gotten in this school.Thankfully, after a dramatic first day at school, things had sobered up somewhat. I won’t lie, it was still a mixed bag, but the web of lies that Eleno
Promised to the Tyrant The Purple Dress
I opened my eyes to loud music, the kind that thudded through your ears, and pulsed through your nerves in the form of that unwanted headache. I knew this song, I had never cared to remember its name or artist because I didn't like it, but I knew the song. I'd never enjoyed such music anywhere, so I wasn't sure what I was doing in this place with those disco lights. But the harshness of the music and the unknown surroundings did not bother me for very long, since my attention was diverted by the sparkling purple object that dominated the center of my view. That kind of sparkle was not easy to miss unless you were blind. The taller girl who had donned the shimmery purple dress was facing away from me and was talking to another girl, whose shorter stature remained hidden, only giving hazy glimpses of her face in the blinding disco light. Despite the darkness, I had an inkling that I knew them, they both looked familiar. It took a couple of seconds for a slight change of position and
Promised to the Tyrant Welcome Party!
Lucifer’s POV It had been four weeks. Four fucking weeks. Four weeks since, we had been searching for a certain witch. Four weeks since, we started looking for connections between our father and Amira. Four weeks since we were away from home. And four long long weeks since we, me and my beast, had seen her. And all that for what? We had nothing, fucking nothing to go with. I had always hated staying away from Enna, even though the memories of the castle would always haunt me. The forest was mine, mine to call home. But for the last couple of months, I had been cutting all my work trips even shorter, arriving early just to fucking see…. This time, however, was different because it was related to her, and I wanted to know more about who she was and what she was. In these past four weeks, we had paid a visit to all of my father’s old contacts and associates, his lawyers, bankers, business partners, and anyone and everyone who had dealings with my father and was alive enough to talk
Promised to the Tyrant Lost & Found
To say that my beast was seeing red was a fucking understatement. We were both seeing a range of colors, each clouding my mind with a different emotion, from anger to confusion to sadness to fear. Anger and rage were my beast’s companions, his pet emotions, ones that fuelled all the bloody messes, but fear was alien to us. After all, it had been a fucking while since I had felt like this, felt afraid, and that too for someone else. I was losing my shit because the beast wanted to get out so he could go look for her. That would have definitely been quicker than this car, but Set had urged me to take precautions since we were so close to a school full of people. I also did not trust my beast right now, with the emotional overload that he was feeling. As if the roller-coaster of emotions that I was feeling were not enough to fuck my mind up, Set was giving me that fucking look as we raced towards that school, the one that said that his baseless mate theory had found legs, and that he w
Promised to the Tyrant Sexual tension 1
Lucifer’s POV The second, she wrapped those thin, lanky legs around my hips, tightening her hands around my neck, digging her fingernails into my shoulder in the process. I was a goner. Her lithe body was pressed against mine at all the right places and right angles. I could never have imagined that those delicate breasts would give shape to such razor-sharp, hard nipples, firming the shape of my hardness. As her core touched my dick, my beast howled in pleasure, and my thick jeans also did nothing to hide my erection from her or the effect that she had on me. My beast didn’t care about hiding shit. He fucking wanted her and wanted her now. He didn’t care that she was off the limit, especially in this condition. "Aah, huh, aah," she moaned, enjoying feeling my hardened cock against her body. My patience had always been fickle, but at this moment it was hanging by an already strained thread. I wanted to bury myself in her, bury my nose in the crook of her neck, bury my hands in thos
Promised to the Tyrant Sexual Tension 2
Lucifer's POV If I were being honest, I could have stopped her, and put her back, if I wanted to. I had already used every bit of my self-restraint to keep my wits around her, and I fucking had my hands full fighting my urges, rather than being responsible for keeping her restrained as well. "You smell so good, " she said as she rubbed her cheeks against my stubble, moaning in response, "Ummm, spicy, you smell of those strong, grounded, colorful spices." I wanted to ponder more on how exactly was she able to pin point the elements of my scent, but as my beast relished the feel of the lace pattern of that white negligee of a dress under his fingertips, all sane thoughts from my head vanished. I was barely able to keep my other hand on the steering wheel and my eyes on the road. She pushed her body closer to mine, rubbing her core against my strained member, illuminating the air in the car, which now smelt of our lust. This was torture. How the fuck was I supposed to not take her he

Promised to the Tyrant New York (2)
Omerta's POV"I am no father of yours." My father shouted."Don't you call me that?"I would be lying if I said that I did not wince at the words which he had repeated a million times growing up. But this time, they drilled deeper, making me realize how true they were.He was not my father; surely he never acted like one.And in that very instant, the man standing in front of me went from being my father to just Lucio Romano.Lucio sounded right; it definitely sounded more apt than Father.I was still deciding on the nomenclature when the phrase 'puta' made its way to my ears."Must have become their puta," Maria muttered under her breath, disgust written all over her face.A loud growl erupted from behind me, silencing the entire room, but before Draco could make another move, I warned him off, not wanting him to get involved. I did not want anyone to fight this battle for me; that was the whole reason why I had not brought Lucifer with me. "Again, I am not sure why you are surpris
Promised to the Tyrant New York (1)
Omerta's POVI had that same vision again and again for the last thirty-six hours, so much so that that was all I could see, hear, or think about. It marred every breath of mine.I knew something bad was going to happen. The voices in my head were restless, though they were not very helpful either.All they told me was that what I had seen would become reality soon enough—not now, but soon enough. However, they were not able to flush out any details other than that. Which meant we had to travel to New York. That was not a problem since we were already due to visit New York to meet with my father, especially after we met with Sameera.My premonition had just preponed our plans. So, the very next morning, we took the very first flight out to New York. I was nervous as hell about this trip. First, the constant buzzing in my head because of the vision had me on edge. I was worried about my mother and eager to meet her. But the thing that had eaten me out was coming face-to-face with
Promised to the Tyrant Normal Couple
Omerta's POV "And now I am going to fuck you so hard that you will not be able to walk for weeks." His words did it for me, sending me over the edge and making me come apart as I tainted the whole room with the scent of my orgasm. The delicious knot in my stomach burst in one go. My muscles contracted and relaxed at the same time as my body savored the experience of a ballet of tension and release surging through it. My eyes fluttered shut, unable to contain the buzzing that was radiating through my body. I was exhausted and energized. It was like I was in heaven and hell at the same time. And I knew he had only just begun with me. Locking his eyes with mine, Lucifer ran his thumb over the smooth skin around my bikini line once again, sending sweet tingles to my sensitive core and my heart into overdrive. I could not decide if it was his look that had my panty wet or his touch. Every nerve in my body was on fire, yearning for more. And I literally lost my head when Lu
Promised to the Tyrant I love you!
Omerta's POV My emotions were running all raw and bare as I ran up, taking two stairs at a time. Sameera's words kept playing in my mind over and over again. He was created so I could be born. I was the trigger for those inhuman experiments that Lucifer and Set had to go through. Another stream of tears trickled down my cheeks as I recalled what they had to go through with Shaira. The ear-shattering screams, the anguished expressions, and those blank looks haunted me. He probably hated me after knowing all this, and he was not wrong. I would hate me too. I did hate myself. I was at the center of all his pain. Not only that, I was at the center of everything that was going wrong. I couldn't help but feel a heavy weight of responsibility on my shoulders. The realization hit me that I had unknowingly become the catalyst for all the chaos that was unfolding around us. Another sob left my mouth, and I lept toward the bed, lying down on my stomach. I clutched the pillow to m
Promised to the Tyrant More from Sameera
Lucifer's POVThis witch continued to spew nonsense regarding the origin of Lycans, but I could barely keep up. All my focus was on my Stray. Her racing heart, ragged breath, and the sweat that had broken through her skin were proof that she was not taking this well.I could taste her fear, her anxiety, and the fuckton of negative thoughts going through her beautiful little head. Wanting to soothe her nerves, I wrapped my arms tightly around her, pulling her close while my fingers drew circles on her arms. As I held her against my chest, I could feel her relax a little in my arms, but she was still too tense.Her emotions were still all over the place. I knew she was completely overwhelmed by the whole prophecy sh*t.To be fair, it was fucking too much, especially for a girl who had no clue about this world until about three months ago. And now she was being thrown headfirst into this fucking chaos.Truth be told, I did not give a flying fuck about any of it. Avo had tried many t
Promised to the Tyrant What Sameera Knows (2)
Omerta's POV I could feel my heart in my mouth as Sameera's words sank in. My legs wobbled from the pressure of whatever was yet to come. The message that my mother had left for me, about the darkness within me came to the forefront of my mind. Only the darkness within will set you free. Embrace it with all, as you embrace thee. Was the darkness within me the cause of all this? I just had a bad feeling about this. For a minute, I regretted coming here at all. Why was it important to get more answers? Lucifer and I were together; why did we need to complicate things more? I knew it was a naive outlook, but I would have preferred being with Lucifer somewhere, instead of listening to all this. Any day, I would take denial over the weight of her words, and the misdeeds that were happening around me. "It all started with the goddess Athena, right about the time when the blessed ones were formed. And while I am sure that Augustus knows this story better than I do, as my prerogative
Promised to the Tyrant What Sameera Knows (1)
Omerta's POV All of my anxiety about sharing a room with Lucifer amounted to nothing, at least not on our first night. Lucifer did not come back till late; in fact, I had no idea when he came or when we went in the morning, because he did not tell me either of the times. All I knew was that something warm and hard was wrapped around me for most of the night, but it was gone by the time I woke up in the morning. There was no Lucifer and no note. It was like I had the whole room to myself. My deep-rooted insecurities started making their way to the surface. I could feel the negative thoughts skirting around the periphery of my vision, but I was adamant not to let them get to me. I reminded myself again that he was just stuck with the stuff going back to Enna. He wanted me here He had moved me into his room. And like he had said, we were in this together, and we were in it for life. Quickly getting ready, I headed downstairs with the book Aaron had given me. It was the one t
Promised to the Tyrant Living Together
Omerta's POV "Don't even fucking think of lying to me, Stray!" Lucifer warned me as he stood all tall and large in that tiny washroom, fuming to fury. He was beyond upset. "You were here with her. Fucking all alone! Do you even know what she could have done?" Lucifer continued, scolding me as he took my hand back in his, pulling me out of there. Alright, he was worried, all right, and he had all his reasons. "I am fine; it was nothing. She did nothing." I tried to calm him down as I showed him that I was unharmed. "You have no idea what they are capable of. All witches are not like that fucker Aaron." It was good to know that Lucifer had let go of some of his inhibitions concerning Aaron, especially since Giovanni had marked him. When we stepped out of the restroom stalls, Avo and Aaron were waiting for us outside. So this is how Lucifer knew about her. Did the wise one know that Aaron would come here? She was super precise about Lucifer's timing as well, which meant
Promised to the Tyrant Her Words
Omerta's POV "So, what is the plan?" I heard Aaron asking when I stepped out of the guest house. "We will start from where we left off yesterday," Avo said calmly. "She was at the fair yesterday, and she made that known, so that is where we start from." After I had spotted the wise one yesterday, we systematically scanned the whole area, only to come up empty-handed. After sundown, Aaron and I could not even feel her presence anymore. We thought it would be easy to scout her out, especially since the one quick glance I had gotten at her told me that she was the spitting image of me. It was almost like looking at my own reflection in the mirror. Maybe I was confused; maybe she just had red, curly hair and green eyes. One thing was sure, she barely looked like an elder. Truth be told, the possibility that it could be my mother had crossed my mind. I had never seen my mother's photograph, but I knew she looked like me. "Is Lucifer not coming?" Draco looked at me, expecting me
