Read Lucia 소설 & 이야기

Inside was a flash drive, a handwritten note, and a photo of the two of us at our first launch party, champagne in hand, stupidly proud of our matching blazer dresses. The note read: "If you’re reading this, I either screwed up or got in the way. Either way, use this. Take the bastard down. – L" My throat burned. The flash drive wasn’t encrypted, just hidden. Classic Lucia. Sometimes the best lock is the one no one thinks to check. I loaded it up and immediately the screen bloomed with folders. Audio files. Screenshots. And one video marked: DO NOT WATCH UNLESS YOU’RE READY. So I watched it.

Two fluffy silver fox ears sprouted atop his head like mischievous antennae of divine gossip. “Oh no no no—!” he gasped, quickly slapping a leaf on his head with practiced panic. The leaf shimmered once, and the ears vanished. He looked around, cheeks puffed in embarrassment. Good. No witnesses. Not even that creepy vending machine ghost. Yin coughed, smoothing down his hair with faux dignity. “Anyway, yes. She’s definitely the one. Nexus’s whole ‘the land shall choose the spirit-bearing flame born in rust’ nonsense? Yeah. Selena literally works in Vermillion Cyberspace. Couldn’t get more prophetic if it slapped us.”

"I feel more and more strange about the situation that is now created between me, Josiah, and Emrys. I don't understand what's wrong at all. And those two aren't even saying anything to clarify things." Lucia exhaled slowly and immediately raised her right palm to gently massage her forehead which was still feeling very dizzy now. Lucia turned her body around and stepped closer to the refrigerator, taking a bottle of cold drink from there. After that, Lucia carried the water bottle to her room. She locked the door and placed the bottle on the table next to the bed. Lucia's mind drifted and thought about everything that had recently happened in The Bloodlust Moon Pack without her realizing it

“Sisters tell each other the things no one else believes.” I think of Leah’s dreams. Of knowing Livia before Rome. Of information bleeding sideways through time and intimacy. “Did Lucia work with Aurelia?” I ask, the name tasting bitter. The woman’s eyes sharpen instantly. “You know that word,” she says. “Yes.” Her gaze holds mine. “Then you know enough to be dangerous.” “I know enough to be lied to,” I say. She considers that. Then nods. “Lucia was not officially employed by anyone,” she says. “She was a student. Brilliant. Curious. Curious enough to be useful.”

“Very. Very useful.” Lucia felt the trap close around her. She trembled. She hated it. Hated Nyla. Hated Draco for not stepping in. Hated herself most of all for giving Nyla the ammunition to use against her. But she forced herself to straighten. Forced her trembling legs to obey. Forced her pride down her throat. “What…do you want from me?” Lucia whispered. Nyla’s smile widened. “Oh, I’ll let you know soon enough,” she said calmly. “For now? Show your filthy self out and stay the fuck out of my way.”

“I won’t let you manipulate me any longer, Sarah. This ends now.” Can you afford to leave me? She hissed, stepping forward. “I'm Luna. I have my power.” “Not anymore,” I said, stepping between them. “Power that's based on deception and that's about to be revealed.” “Stop all of this charade! Sarah circled, lifting her arm to hit me. Don't you even try it!" Lucian shrieked, holding Sarah back. “Why do you care?” she spat, glaring at him. “She’s nothing but a threat to our family.”

Kian caught sight of her while he was talking to the elders and quickly sent a mind-link message to Lucian, instructing him to keep an eye on Lyra. “I don’t think someone’s foolish enough to attack me when the palace is full of guests,” Lyra said, feeling the presence of Gamma Lucian behind her back as she walked towards the garden. “I know you need to spend some time alone, but it’s the Alpha King’s order, " Laucian explained, following her steps.

Me: I love you so much Lucian: I love you more goodnight

Fuck, I wanted her. Then, the smallest of voices cried out on her behalf. On behalf of their luna. My heart sank, realizing exactly who this woman was. She was the luna of this pack. The luna to the alpha I was here to apprehend. Lyle began to talk to her, and I held my breath as I heard the sweetest voice in the world. But when I heard she had been stabbed, I was ready to eviscerate the world. I’m going to find her step-sister and her EX-MATE and I’ll eviscerate them.
