DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 39
Chapter 39
Lukas
He slammed the phone down on its cradle on his desk. Another false lead. Another person that he wanted to murder. He pressed his fingers into his eyes. His head was pounding and all he wanted to do was curl up in bed and sleep, but every time he did his dreams were haunted by the panicked look on Lily’s face when she had been forced into the portal. He sighed and threw the new snow globe that to had put on his desk at the wall. The shattering of the glass only eased his irritation for the slightest millisecond. He pushed his chair back and stood up, stretching. He guessed there was no better time to inflict the daily torment on her parents than the present.
He jogged down to the basement dungeon where he was currently holding them. He grinned at them.
“Good aftemoon. How are we today?” he asked as he unlocked Martha’s door
“Your Majesty, please, let her go. She
“Is just as guilty as you are. You had no mercy for Lily. Don’t expect it from me.” Lukas growled, cutting Luis off.
He pulled her skirt up to reveal what was left of her left leg. He ran his finger over it and she tensed.
“Hmm, I think today we will do something else.”
He walked over to the table across the small hallway from the cells and began to pick up the different tools of torture to study them for a moment, before putting them all back down. He already knew what he was going to use, but he loved the slow mental torture it provided as they tried to figured out just what was in store for them that day. He saved the rusty spoon for last, almost giddy at the idea of using it to dig her eye out of its socket. He twirled it between his fingers, slowly turning back to her. He held it up. Javier came through the door and laughed.
“I thought I’d find you here.”
“What’s up?,” Lukas asked, moving towards Martha.
*I had some information for you, Sire ”
Lukas forced her to lay on the ground. “Don’t move,” he ordered, letting his aura hold her in place. He glanced at Javier. “What’s up?”
He began to slowly push the spoon into her eye socket under the actual eye, careful not to rupture it. She started to scream.
“So, I tried to do the protection again on Lily. It bounced back again.”
“Okay and “why does that make you happy?,” he asked as he slowly pulled the spoon out.
“Because when it bounced back to me, the spell I included in it to trace the magic source gave me something to track.”
He froze. “Does that mean you know where Lily is?”
He nodded. “There’s more.”
“Spit it out,
man.”
“So, this Guriel person,” he said nervously, “has connected himself with Lily.”
Lukas narrowed his eyes. “W
“What do you mean connected himself to Lily?”
“He must have marked her, laikas. I was just coming to tell you that one of my vampires spotted Guriel without the girl just outside of the Golden Clan,” Lucian informed him.
Lukas cursed silently. That must have been what he had felt on her birthday. The pain that had shot through him had caused him to collapse at dinner, He had been unconscious for six days. Every day, sometimes two or three times a day, his chest had been on fire and the pain had almost blinded him. He turned to glare at Luis, before he leaned down to breathe on his mate’s wound to cauterize it. He got up and entered Luis cell. He held the spoon to
his mouth.

Chapter 39
“Eat it!”
His aura flared out again and Luis‘ mouth popped open. Lukas deposited her eye into his mouth and he chewed it and swallowed it. Lukas smiled at him and patted his cheek.
“I hate to just feed you and run, but I have a very special date that I need to pick up.”
Lukas locked both cells and headed back upstairs.
“What’s the address?”
“614 Cherry Street. 13 miles outside of the southern border of Golden”
Jo fell into step beside him while Ethan flanked his other side.
“Get the healers and everyone else we may need for our return. Have Sasha come.” He smiled over his shoulder. “I’m going to bring our queen home.”
He leapt into the sky and Gideon’s wings exploded out of his shoulders, easily lifting him up. The three of them made it to the address in record time and were left stunned upon their arrival at the small house. It had completely caved in and smoke still came from the rubble. His heart dropped as the recency of the building’s collapse struck fear into his heart and he shifted fully into Gideon to move all of the bricks faster. They uncovered one body and he shifted back into his human form to cautiously roll it over. His heart thudded hard against his ribs anxiously as he brushed the woman’s blonde hair back. He let out a sigh of relief when it wasn’t Lily. He shifted back and continued to sort through the rubble. Jo whistled out to him and he turned slightly. She held up Guriel’s body and he growled. She shook him
“He’s dead, big guy. Want him?”
Gideon nodded and she shifted back to toss his body into the air, Gideon caught the singed corpse in his mouth and shook vigorously, Pieces of flesh flew everywhere, before Gideon swallowed him whole. It took another 15 minutes to check under the rest of the destruction and Lily’s body was nowhere to be found. He sent up a prayer to the Goddess, asking her to protect Lily wherever she was. He sighed, shifting back down to sit on the ground defeated. Jo came over to sit next to him.
‘Brother, I need you to come over. Right now,” Sasha ordered through their link, slightly panicked.
‘I’m kind of in the middle of something, Aja. What’s up?“,
‘So am I, asswipe, and I can promise you mine’s more important. Come to Dragão immediately. Lily is here.”
He wasted no time in taking to the skies. He needed to see her. He needed to make sure she was okay. Why hadn’t she come to him? He would have protected her. Gideon remained silent, hiding his emotions from Lukas. He prayed that she was okay. He felt jo try to open their link, but he kept it firmly shut. He didn’t need anything getting in his way. He landed and his wings were reabsorbed quickly making him stumble, but he didn’t care. He threw the doors open and Gregory pointed at the stairs.
“They are in Aiden and Sasha’s room.”
He sprinted past Gregory and was entering the room in seconds. He drew up short when he saw her. He hurried to her side and reached out for her. She was burning up and her body was so frail. She was barely covered, littered in wounds and bruises, smelling like a mix of blood and fear. He got into bed next to her and pulled her close. His body trembled with rage, before sadness took over. He buried his face in her neck for a moment and the bastard’s mark on her throat burned his skin. He bit back a howl of sorrow,
“I’m so sorry I failed you, Lils,” he murmured softly to her.
Sasha put her hand on his shoulder.
“Brother,” she whispered. “We need to talk about something.”
“Whatever it is, it can wait. I need to heal her.”
He began to lick all over her exposed skin, focusing on the mark on her neck. It slowly receded until it was nothing more than redness on her skin that would finish healing on its own. Aiden pulled Sasha away as he tended to Lily. He moved down her body, licking at every injury she had. He paused as he neared her pelvic area. Sasha sighed as he inhaled deep. Gideon let out a pain filled cry, making Lily shiver, but not wake up. Sasha and Kalani both knelt beside and wrapped their arms around him. They rocked him slowly.

“That’s what I was trying to tell you,” Sasha murmured sadly.

Lukas whimpered and a tear fell from his eye. He wished he could bring the fucker back and kill him all over again. Lukas pulled away from his to lay his head on Lily’s lap. He wrapped his arms around her and let his tears roll down her stomach. He couldn’t imagine what she had gone through or how to help her, but all he knew was that she was back and he would never let her go again. Her nor their future child. He pressed a kiss to her stomach. His Lily was just a baby still and she was going to have a baby of her own. He wanted to kill Guriel everyday for the rest of eternity. He crawled back up the bed to hold her close.
“I am so sorry 1 failed you. I love you, Lily. Please, please, forgive me,” he begged quietly into her hair as more tears trekked down his face,
