Chapter79.Boiling with hatred
The sight of Draco with Liana was a constant source of desperation. Lucian was filled with an all-consuming hatred towards his brother, and the woman he longed for. It felt like a crushing weight on his chest that he couldn’t shake off.
Lucian couldn’t help but compare himself to his brother, and the unfairness of it all. He had the same desire to claim a her, yet fate had conspired against him. He cursed himself for not being the one to find her first, for not being the one to make her his own.
When he watched Draco and Liana together from afar, Lucian’s mind was consumed with thoughts of what could have been. “Why did I have to be cursed with this longing, this ache that I cannot satisfy? Why must I suffer in silence while my brother basks in the warmth of her love?” he yelled to himself, frustrated at his own inability to control his emotions.
Lucian’s jealousy burnt like a wildfire, fuelling his hatred towards his brother. He couldn’t bear to see them together, to see the love and tenderness that he so desperately craved. The pain of his unrequited love was unbearable and was stirring his dark side yet again.
Lucian didn’t go back to the dragon realm after his heated show down with Draco. He flew over the mountains. His keen dragon senses picking up the scent of the exiled and outcast dragons, who frequented that part of the world and he knew could help him locate his cousin, Nemesis. He knew Nemesis was hiding somewhere in the human world, and he was determined to find him and use his anger to take revenge on Draco.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
The moment those petty dragons sensed he was there, they tried to scatter away in dust, but Lucian caught hold of two of them from the back,
” Where do you think you guys are going? ”
He yanked them back on the ground as they fell with a thud.
” Tell me where that cousin of mine hides when he comes to the human world. I had kong known how you all were over stepping the dragon guide lines in this world. I should have squirmed you all in the beginning. ”
His threat terrified those already scared losers and they didn’t know how to deny.
“Okay, okay Lord Lucian! We heard that he was heading to the mountains. There’s a cave he likes to hide in up there. I swear that is all I heard from the gossips. I don’t have any confirnation but please have us spared. ”
He fell on the ground in prostration as Lucian lifted his leg.
The dragon was about to have an heart attack, thinking that he was about get kicked but instead Lucian stepped beside him and then took off with a jump.
After flying for hours according to the location given by those rogue dragons, Lucian flew down on a ‘no-man’s land’ to find and confront Nemesis, his eyes flashing with anger. It took him only a few minutes of roaming about when Nemesis himself appeared before him.
” Is this a prodigal dragon Lord who’s came after me? ”
He smirked, walking out of the shadows.
“Well, well, well. Look who we have here. The coward who tried to kill Draco’s son,” he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm as he turned back to face him.
Nemesis glared at Lucian, his eyes burning with hatred. “I’ll finish what I started,” he growled, his claws digging into the ground.
Lucian smirked. “Oh, I’m sure you will. But let’s not forget why you’re doing this. Your dear mother’s death. She was my ain’t. And whose fault was that? Don’t think I am unaware. ” he asked, instigating Nemesis further.
Nemesis snarled, his eyes blazing with fury. “It was your dragon Lord’s fault. The entire world knows about that. “he spat.
Lucian chuckled. “Ah, yes. The blame game. Classic. But you know what they say, revenge is a dish best served cold,” he said, his voice filled with malice.
Nemesis narrowed his eyes. “What do you want, Lucian?” he asked, his voice low and dangerous.
“I want to help you. Help you take revenge on Draco. Together, we can bring him down,” Lucian said, his voice smooth and persuasive.
Utter silence followed that statement.
Nemesis hesitated for a moment, considering Lucian’s offer. “And what’s in it for you?” he asked, his voice suspicious.
Lucian grinned. “Oh, just a little thing called satisfaction. With Draco out of the way, I’ll be the most powerful dragon in the world. I could have anything that I want,” he said, his eyes glittering with ambition but Nemesis had no idea what he was talking about or whom. It was all about Liana and his intolerable urge to possess her.
Nemesis nodded slowly. “Fine. I’ll help you. But on one condition. I get to kill Draco,” he said, his voice firm, looking at his own hands,” With my very hand. ”
Lucian laughed. A content and satisfactory laugh. “As you please dear cousin. Let’s get started,” he said, spreading his wings and taking off into the sky. His mind already filling with the joyfull hopes of all the things he would be doing with Liana when Draco would no longer be around.
