Chapter 3

Clasping her trembling hands over her belly, Jasmine stared at Bryan’s ruthless face after his declaration as tears flooded her cheeks. With wobbly footsteps, she marched a few steps towards him as she quivered, “Bryan… d–do you realize what are you saying? Sending me to the lycan territory… that meansy–you want me to get killed?”

“I have spared your life for the last two years by taking you under my wing, Jasmine. Isn’t that enough already?” Bryan carefreely shrugged, strolling near her small, fragile b*dy without showing remorse.

“Bryan you betrayed me! Now….you want to send me away to get killed? How could you be so cruel to me? D–Did I deserve to be treated like this? Why did you do this to me?” Jasmine whimpered, rushing close to Bryan while gazing into his devilish eyes.

But without showing any sign of mercy, Bryan sneered and grabbed Jasmine by her chin before he whispered, “Perhaps, I could have even spared your life this time too, only if you had been obedient to me without any ridiculous demand. But it’s too late now, instead, I am granting you a last favor to die in a foreign land, away from us. Shouldn’t it be okay?”

The cruel sneer on his face indicated that this was Bryan’s true face which had been suppressed inside him masked by kindness all this time.

Jasmine gritted her jaws and grabbed both his arms in order to survive the terrible havoc. She realized perhaps telling the truth about her pregnancy was the only way left for her as she proceeded, “W–Wait… Bryan…there was a reason for which I asked you to mark me tonight. I…I am actually-”

“I don’t even want to hear your bullshit anymore!” But he forcibly yanked her away from him and ordered the butler in a hoarse tone, “Send the letter right away to the lycan kingdom that we are sending our maiden by tomorrow. And get her out of my sight already, quick! I don’t wanna ruin.

Just as per his command, two giant guards rushed inside and grabbed Jasmine by both her arms. She struggled to resist being dragged away, crying and begging before him, “Bryan, please! Just listen to me once! I swear, I will disappear somewhere and never show my face before you again after you hear me out… but don’t send me there! Brayn please…”

Amidst all of her sharp cries and uproar, Jasmine was forcibly dragged outside the hall by those men when Bryan coldly turned his face away from her.

Inside the lavish room of Caspasian castle, Lucian was putting on his black mask on the left side of his face, while gazing at himself in the mirror. His onyx big eyes were cold and dark, with grave mystery confined in them. However, the color of his left pupil was ash white, with a deep scary scar that had cut his eye vertically. The exposed right side of the face was perfectly normal, refined with his porcelain white complexion.

Decked up in a royal black outfit with a long silk cape pinned around his shoulder, Lucian exhaled a heavy sigh before he took his steps outside the

room.

Two armed royal guards were waiting for him and as soon as they saw him, their faces turned anxious as they mumbled, leaning their gazes down. “W–We were waiting for you, Your Grace. His Majesty has summoned you to the dining hall.”

“I know.” In a cold, cryptic deep voice, Lucian answered him before he marched straight ahead toward the dining hall, on the other side of the castle building.

All the guards standing around him immediately avoided eye contact with him and even the maids lowered their heads down, as if they were feared by Lucian’s dark aura. After an anticipated long march, Lucian finally walked inside the room he was reluctantly heading for.

On the head seat of the table, the present Carpasian Lycan King Zabaras was calmly cutting a piece of meat, using his fork. On his right side, Queen Melanie, and on the left side, their only son and the Crown Prince of the Carpasian kingdom Stefan were seated.

All of them quickly averted their glances at the door as soon as they caught a glimpse of giant Lancian standing there..

“Huh, honey, why did you call him here?” Quickly Melanie frowned her face as she asked Zabaras, with an irked glance towards Lucian. Not to mention, even Stefan distorted his expression while sipping his wine whent he looked at him.

However, ignoring her query, Zabaras tried to forge a fake smile as he greeted him, “Lucian, you are here finally.”

“Why did you…summon me here, Your Majesty?” After a brief pause, Lucian grumbled those words in a low, stiff voice as he stomped his boots inside the room.

But immediately Zabaras hid his sly smirk and hardened his glare on him. before he proclaimed, “Shouldn’t you bow before your king, first? Have you forgotten your–etiquette, huh?”

His sharp pitch left an alarming threat to Lucian as he lifted his cold gaze upon him. With much stiffness in his tall posture, he bowed before the king.

Watching him obey his words, Zabaras quickly lit up with another fake smirk as he placed his fork on the plate. Crossing his arms over his pearl embellished vest coat, he sounded a bit gruff, “I called you here to let you know that I have already sent the invitation for another offered maiden for you this year. Reports came that she shall be arriving here by

tomorrow.”

“I don’t want that, Your Majesty.” All of a sudden, Lucian’s half–black mask

trembled on his face as if he was gritting his jowls. Keeping a cold dark gaze on him, he walked a step closer and firmly asserted, “I am sick of those weak maidens they have sent to me until now! I don’t wanna go through that again, this year! Those weak wolves disgust me!”

“Ah, but it’s not up to your choice to make the decision, Brother Lucian.” All of a sudden, in a sly voice Stefan commented while glancing calmly at Lucian. His handsome face twisted into a witty smirk as he uttered, “Father had already agreed to this condition proposed by the Rosewood pack a long time ago. So, whether it’s up to your liking or not…you have to accept that.”

“Looks like, you have forgotten your place here, Lucian.” All of a sudden, Zabaras thickened his hoarse voice and grabbed a chunk of grilled meat. He peered an intense gaze towards Lucian and declaimed, “Lucian, kneel down before me right at this moment.”

His sharp call caused an uneasy palpitation to stir in his chest, making Lucian contort his face in immense pain. As if his feet were shackled by some unknown chain, he kneeled before them and at that moment, Zabaras threw the chunk of meat towards him on the cold floor!

“Grab the meat with your mouth, Lucian. Don’t use your hand.” A devilish sneer curved his l*ps when Zabaras announced, followed by witty chuckles from both Melanie and Stefan as if they were pretty much amused to watch Lucian being humiliated like that.

Rolling his fists, tears shimmered in his dark eyes as Lucian obediently picked up the meat with his teeth, just like Zabaras commanded.

While he kept lowering his humiliated, disdainful gaze, Zabaras sounded much exhilarated as he uttered, “Yes, just like that, do remember that you are my faithful puppy, Lucian. You should always obey your Master and never dare to oppose any of my decisions. Do you understand?”

Holding a glimpse of tears in his eyes, Lucian only gave a nod as an

But Zabaras stood up from his seat and walked close to him, before he gently patted his shoulder, “I know…you must be really annoyed and frustrated inside. So, just direct your anger toward the maiden! Do whatever you want to her….abuse, kill, or torture her…I will leave the right. up to you. Even though I heard you have given some of them very worse death…I didn’t ask a question at you.

“But only remember, you can’t get her pregnant. Your bloodline is supposed to cease with you. As the Hideous Prince of this kingdom, you must make sure to stay behind the veil…okay?”

His cold hoarse words created a sharp resonance amidst the wall of the room, making a throbbing ache of pain and anger surge inside Lucian. His dark eyes turned bloodshot red and without saying a word, he only kept his head low.

A diabolical smile curved his bearded face when Zabaras watched the torn, humiliated expression evident on Lucian. Without a word further, he gallantly walked outside the room and as soon as he left, Melanie.

scornfully asked him, “Do you still wish to be here? If you still have some dignity left, leave at least.”

Her cold demeaning words triggered the endurance that Lucian was trying to control until now. Gritting his jaws, he threw away the chunk of meat. from his mouth and stood up to storm outside the hall without a second delay.

“Goodness…that brat must have some serious self–endurance, otherwise. how could he still be alive after getting belittled by father like this always?” A sarcastic chuckle escaped from Stefan while he gazed all the way Lucian just marched outside in a rush.

But as soon as he set his fee out of the hall, his exposed right eye.

transformed into fiery red, making his entire b*dy tremble in wrath. His

scary aura shuddered all the guards around him so that they didn’t even dare to look at his half–masked face.

The maiden let her arrive tomorrow. This time…I will make sure to give her the worst possible death anyone would dread to have!!” Lucian chanted those scornful words deep in his mind as anger and pain flared inside his cold heart.
