Chapter 289 [Bonus chapter] Lost Control

“What do you want from me?” freezing coldness emerging from the bottom of her eyes.

“He did not need anything from you. You are going with me. And do not worry about kids. He would let them go too.” feeling such strong suppressive pressure from Hazel, Lucian tried to assure her when she tilted her head to look at him.

“It is all because of Rafael. You have no idea since you are young and did not know vampires for long.” ignoring the coldness and pressurising aura emitting from her, Lucian walked closer and cupped her cheeks.

“He had killed all the witches and humans mercilessly. He is a killer, a sinner that never cared about others.

Do you think he had feelings? Ha! He was never interested in you. He had left you every time you were in trouble.

I was the one who stood with you. I was the one who put my life in danger every time to save you.

I.. I love you more than him, Hazel. Can you not see it.” all she could see was madness in his eyes..

As a man she had respected him a lot and even felt indebted to him since he was right, he had saved her and helped her too many times. That was why she was not able to bring herself to break his heart.

“Aren’t you still alive to the beats of all that? But once you brought me here, we turned even. Now I am not indebted to you anymore.” she jerked his hands away harshly as she still needed to keep an eye on Vincent. She would handle the love struck fool later.

But Lucian took it as her rejection. Her cold words and looks full of disdain stabbed her heart again.

The feeling of suffocation returned leaving traces of madness.

“Why? I have done everything for you. I have always trusted you. Didn’t you say that you will come with me when you will defeat your family?

Didn’t you kiss me on the balcony?” he screamed with some force. The moment he burst out, his energy went haywire.

His emotional burst out affected the control of his powers and as soon as he shouted, strong winds started to blow in the room.

Vincent cursed as he asked his man to get a hold of the boy.

“Lucian! Do not act like a child. We can discuss this later. Can you not see how many lives are in danger.” keeping her irritation at her bay, she surpassed the anger and tried to talk out that fool but he just laughed.

His laugh was cold and full of mockery.

“Do you have any idea how many times you have asked me to wait? You professed your love to me yet you asked me to wait on the door while you and Rafael kissed in the room!” he roared again.

The knights who were trying to hold him were sent away flying due to the pressure of wind around him.

Tornadoes were bubbling in when she looked at the kids worriedly who had less holding on the ground.

Everyone in the room was already struggling to maintain their balance but Lucian could not see any of that.

He went berserk. Only the images of Rafael and Hazel kissing and hugging each other was flashing in front of his eyes that was making him crazy.

“You told me that you will still choose me and hugged him in front of everyone in the next second. Do you have any idea how it feels?

Do you know how it feels when you see your lover in the arms of someone else and still try to trust her that she will come to you in the end.

It is suffocating. Did you hear that! You made me like this. You should not have kissed or promised me anything if you were not prepared to fulfil that promise.” He took hasty steps towards her and held her in his arms.

She flinched but did not try to avoid his hold. She could see that he had lost all his rationality but she knew that he was right. It was her mistake but she didn’t know that she was the one Rafael was looking all around.

She had thought that he and Rafael were going to part their ways soon and had felt love for Lucian in his eyes so many times that she thought it would be better that she would spend her life with him.

But she had no one to blame but her when she looked at him.

The bright and free spirited witch who has a long future in front of him has become like this…

“Even now..” he whispered, “even now you have no love for me in your eyes but pity!

Tell me, tell me what do I do to earn that look you give to Rafael when he did not even look at you?

Tell me what I should do to make you love me?

Do you need wealth? I am going to gain enough wealth once Rafael dies today.

Do you want power? Do you want to be the empress? That is why you are not able to leave him.

Tell me Hazel, what the hell in the world do you want?” his grip on her shoulders tightened so much that she was sure that it was going to leave bruises.

She felt that he was going to pull her limbs apart yet when she looked at the desperation, that longingness that was making him crazy, she was not able to say a word.

She cupped his cheeks and felt him leaning to her touch and closing his eyes as if he was gaining relief when her hopes increased,

“I.. i neve needed any of that, Lucian. Please calm down so that we can talk. You are not in the condition to listen to me. But do you really want to destroy this inn? The place where you grew up with your uncle and aunt due to your anger.

Do you want to hurt them, think about the kids, Lucian .”
