"Stray, we need to talk, like, really fucking talk."

Talk? Was he serious?

Talk was what normal people did, and he had not done anything normal, at least not with me around. We had never talked talked. All the previous times when any kind of words was exchanged between us, they never constituted talking. It was always about him yelling or screaming at me, or if I had to refer to the more recent past, it was both of us in a fighting match.

But we had never talked, like, ever. And now he said he wanted to talk, but that was all he had said since then. Since then, everything had gone as quiet as the night sky. Though it was not an awkward, uncomfortable one. It was strange that while I had avoided the comforting words of all those people with whom I talked and shared things regularly, it was this break-in into my room from the person I wanted to avoid that had put me at awkward ease.

I was not sure how long this ease would last if he started talking about last night, and everything th

Hope you liked this. I was very conflicted while writing this, not sure if this is how one would feel, but unfortunately this is based on some true stories, I had spoken to a friend who had been in a certain situation, and she was all about in self-doubt and blame in the initial days. I am trying to post everyday now, at least March, let's see how much am I able to keep up.

  • Promised to the Tyrant   Punished!

    Omerta’s POV I didn’t remember ever sleeping this well. I was at peace, safely enveloped in a warm, spicy scent. Even subconsciously, I knew, that he was there with me throughout the night, sitting at that same one-hand distance, in that same position, for hours. It was sometime early in the morning that he left, and as glad as I was for his presence through the night, I was even more thankful that he was gone in the morning. I had no idea how I would have been able to face him in the morning, and wake up next to him, especially since so much had happened in such a short time. Our talk was the sole reason I was back here. Back at school. "You know you can skip school," Giovanni said, still surprised that I wanted to get back to school so early. The whole Agosti clan was surprised at that, they did not expect me to be feeling and behaving that normally. But I had taken Lucifer’s words to heart, and I was done engrossing myself in self-pity. "I mean, you are already late, so why no

  • Promised to the Tyrant   They Want Her!

    Lucifer’s POV Omerta, the name that rarely left my mouth, had plagued my thoughts day and night. I would be fucking lying if I said that I had not wondered if she was indeed my mate and that Avo’s dear Selene had decided to ruin yet another life. Everything fucking pointed to the fact that we might, just might be mates. After all, I was miserable whenever I could not feel her presence or her delectable scent of honey and rosemary. She was the only one apart from my family that could stand up to me despite my overpowering aura, the way my beast indulged her every time she talked back to me, unafraid and unhinged, and still lived to see the next day. All along, I had believed that it was just lust, that it was my fucking desire that was giving way to this hellish pull toward her. But that day, when she was drugged and was all out to test my patience, all my beast could think about was her safety, and how he did not want to face any pain or harm. And as if that was not enough, we fu

  • Promised to the Tyrant   Those Words!

    Omerta’s POV One minute I was surrounded by people staring at me with a mix of disgust, fear, and awe, and the next everyone was running around, and I was being ushered out of the cafeteria to what that unknown teacher referred to as the underground shelter. There was an attack, and it seemed like everyone here was aware of the attack protocol. Many of the students went on and on about the mafia conflict, and I would have assumed that was the case. It made sense, because we have faced this in New York as well, but only if the werewolf students and their actions were not such a giveaway. Not only were the werewolf students in charge of getting people into the shelters, but many of them were also missing, claiming they were a part of the protection detail. Guess it was something related to the werewolf stuff, though I wondered who was fool enough to attack them. I was so caught up in my thoughts that I did not even notice that Aaron had abandoned his position next to him. It was onl

  • Promised to the Tyrant   Throwing Up

    I waited and waited with bated breath, but there was no pain. My body should have been in agony, but I felt nothing but blood, and more blood that tickled down my face, and my neck. My mind was unable to comprehend what was happening. With the amount of blood that was there, my body should have been burning in its misery, but there was nothing, just my upper body painted red. It took me a few seconds to understand what was happening. As my vision focused, I saw Lucifer standing behind that man, with his hand deep inside that man’s chest, piercing it from the back and front of that man’s body. The realization hit me like a truckload, the blood that had drenched me from top to bottom belonged to that man with fangs, who now lay lifeless against Lucifer’s hand. In the past, I had never had a problem with blood, but seeing so much crimson liquid spilled on me, made my head spin, and before I knew it, my guts had decided to act out, and I was vomiting onto that man’s barren body and mys

  • Promised to the Tyrant   The Wise Ones

    Omerta’s POV We were all now in Lucifer’s office, everyone but Abaddon, when Avo started talking. "Omerta, I want you to know I never intended for you to find out more about our world like this. I understand how frightening it is to see a man with fangs growling at you." Well, it was horrid! "I wished we would have completed our discussion earlier on, but there are just too many things happening in the past few days," Avo said. It was clear that this bothered him. He looked concerned, and I wondered if Lucifer had something to say to him about my reaction in the cafeteria. "Honestly, I never imagined in my wildest dreams that you'd ever come face to face with a vampire."They are fairly rare on our side of the world, and they mostly tend to keep away from us. " It felt strange to talk about and hear about monsters that I had read about in books, and seen in movies. My mind found it difficult to grasp the fact that such terrifying beings did not just exist in fantasy; they were ve

  • Promised to the Tyrant   Blessed Ones (Contd)

    Omerta’s POV Be it werewolves, witches, or wise ones, the Salem trials, or the story of the Pagan Gods, as much as I tried to internalize these things, they all seemed to belong in a fantasy novel, which I am sure would have been a good read, and not in the real world. I had just adjusted to the idea of werewolves as blessed ones, as now there were these wise ones, and then there was one more type of blessed ones. How many supernatural creatures were there? Were all our childhood stories based on some reality? I was truly out of my depth here. "Omerta?" Avo called out to me, gently pulling me back to reality. "Too much?" My clueless expression must have told him how overwhelmed I was. They all waited patiently as I composed myself enough to speak. "Kind of," I said as casually as I could, "but I would rather know it all." I hate being the only clueless person in this house." "These boys have grown up in this world, you cannot compare to them." Avo answered honestly, "And even t

  • Promised to the Tyrant   The Punishment

    Omerta’s POV I was lying in my bed for hours and hours, waiting for sleep to come. My mind had replayed the day's events, again and again, entangling itself in different pieces of information and questions. Despite all that playing inside my grey matter, there was only one thing that I classified as an immediate action, and that was Lucifer. There was no doubt that we had both moved past skirting around our feelings, at least to ourselves, and in the last few days, Lucifer had been more consistent towards me than his usual hot and cold behavior. We had come a long way, and that should have been enough, but here I was enchanted by that magical word, ‘more’. While my body and senses lulled, the thoughts of what could be swirled in my head, keeping my physically exhausted body from completely slipping into a sweet slumber. It was at that time, when I was somewhere in between consciousness and unconsciousness, that I felt the bed dip. The movement was so slow that at first, I was not

  • Promised to the Tyrant   The Vortex

    Omerta’s POV "Hold on, Stray, we are just getting started." Lucifer called out to me in that sexy voice, and I almost collapsed on the bed, all thanks to the shattering orgasm coursing through my body. Though somehow I still managed to hold on to the all-fours position despite my unstable equilibrium. The light stinging feeling, from the first time his palm had met my left butt cheek, was still fresh and sizzling, when he went for the second one, landing his palm on my other cheek with full force. However, the second one felt different than the first, despite being similar in terms of their intensity, especially since the high of my pleasure ride had died down by then. When I first experienced the whole spanking business, I was drugged with anticipation; the anticipation of something that would push me over to my release. So, when he spanked me, I did not feel anything else apart from the climax that rang through my body. I did not register the burning pain or the shock, nor did I

    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

    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
