My Lycan Demigod

29

HANSEL…

Dressing up feminine felt so good that I didn't long to get those dresses off. I honestly did like the way the prince stared at me; not like his eunuch, but I couldn't predict how.

Wasn't that desire? He'd stare at me and then his throat would bobble…

I slapped my cheek. What was even wrong with me? We are talking of someone who just sucked someone to death before my very eyes and could do that to me.

Ahhh, I forgot. Maybe, his throat bobbled because he loved the scent and taste of my blood and craved it.

I had jumped out of the window, but was actually staring at the frozen people in the compound. The security guards, servants, and mere guards parading around.

‘It could be fun serving someone like him. They were smiling.’ I shrugged my shoulders and kept walking.

I didn't think he would spare my life after I told him the truth. I had told him that I was at the brothel to make some money for myself and sucked his dìck, then he realised why he suddenly went calm that night.

He even complimented me that I did a good job that night and saved him from going feral, and I loved how soft those words were in his tongue, and he really looked so cool when listening to me…he even smiled hard and licked his lips.

Truth be told, he was so handsome, and I guess he would have a soft spot in him that trauma must have covered. No one even knows what happened that made his mother chain him in that dark lava, and I'm sure it's the reason he became so cold that way.

Now, it's the tattoo and my specie remaining before I know my fate. I'm certain they would find out who I am if they found out my species.

What if I'm a lycan? Since they keep saying that I'm not human, I hope not to be a species that they don't like around, because I am only here because I'm a human.

If I happen to be a lycan, he would send me away right?

Gods, please let me be a human. Since Osha didn't take my place by his side, I shouldn't leave either.

“What's so funny?”

My feet slipped and I staggered backwards, my breath hung in my throat.

When did he come here? How long had he been staring at me?

“Something must be making you that happy. Is it these frozen people?” he gestured and knitted his brows.

I shook my head and nodded. “The thing is…”

“You want to be a female?”

“That's not what I mean. I meant, yes….oh no." I scratched my head and turned my back on him. ‘What's wrong with me? Why am I suddenly stammering? This isn't like me. Where did my pride go?’

Maybe it's because I'm dressed femininely, so it's affecting me.

I turned to him again, “My prince, since we are done, could we go back to the palace so I could change?”

“Is it making you uncomfortable? Being a man is really your fate.” he scoffed and pulled a straight face. “But you really look elegant in it. What about we blood hunt and you bring tasty men to me? Your beauty could lure them…”

Was that the use of my beauty to him? Like, he wasn't admiring me and longing to have me be his bride?

Am I cursed or what?

“Yes, my Prince.” It's kinda better since he won't feed on me then.

I forgot that we teleported and began walking to the balcony when I felt someone hold me. Before I could even speak, we were standing in the woods.

Goodness! I f*****g need this kinda power, so when I make trouble, I'll just disappear.

“You can now begin,” he said, pulling me out of my daze.

I watched him move forward, his hands clamped backward. The way his cloak swayed behind him, dancing to the motion of the wind.

He was so tall and huge, just like the beast that he is.

‘But people like him aren't supposed to be handsome.’

I pinched myself and swallowed hard. Dressing femininely has a lot of disadvantages. I even have feelings now, and that's rubbish. Had I admired him this way before?

“What's she doing there?”

Fuck! I hurried towards him, grabbing the gown yet it was just too heavy for me to hold, making me wonder how those females manage to have it on that long.

‘Being poor is just so great. You don't dress in lots of heavy fabrics.’

I was even sweating.

“You're going to trip on that…

I already found myself flying in the air, my eyes shut tight.

“i***t! I don't use my power to save people. I hurt with it.” he muttered and pushed me away from his grip.

Oh, that was lovely, or I'd have slammed the back of my head on the floor.

“Yes, you shouldn't save people with it.” I blinked and turned. “It's really hot.”

We continued our journey, but in the end, nothing yielded.

After so much parading around the clan, he didn't smell a tasty blood, and I was just so pissed that my effort was in vain. What was scarier was that he could turn around to have me do it and I didn't want to since he'd fed on me already.

“Hansel,”

I turned and bowed to him, “My prince.”

He narrowed his gaze, “So, who gave you the name ‘Jeyne’?”

I rolled my eyes. That name that I mentioned in the hall?

“Uhm, no one. It slipped my tongue, and I even prayed so hard there so it would be a feminine name. Is there a problem? Did you find my family?”

“Not yet, and I'm unsure if you even have one.”

What? I didn't have a family? Then I must have fallen from heaven.

That's impossible. Everyone in this world has a family.

“But you look like her, and that's her name,” he said again, drawing my attention. I didn't know what to say, but I only noticed a change in his expression.

At that moment, it became cold like someone who was feeling remorse.

“She was executed with her family right before my eyes, and I couldn't save her. Maybe because I was late, and only appeared when she took her last breath. The least I could do was to take the lives of everyone there. I fought with my father, and was now chained by my mother. But I still blame myself for not saving her, because she was my mate and we loved each other so well.”

My body went stiff while listening to him. So this was it? This was why he hates his people?

His mate was executed. He watched her corpse, and what her mother could do to console him was to chain him?

“My mother is the moon guardian, and has power over me, or I would have taken her life first. She chained me in that dark lava, and I was struck all day by lightening, until two millennia ago."

What?

How could they be so cruel? Two millennia?

My chest tightened. That innocent-looking woman that I saw there did such a thing to his son? That's so cruel.

Now that they have made him always behave like a demon, is it even worth it?

“Up till now, I have yet to know the offence she and her family committed.” he sighed and turned his face away.

That wasn't good at all. They even hid her offence from him.

I felt so pitiful for him at that moment and wanted to hold him until he slept off, but this was the woods.

“So, do I really look like her?” I managed to ask and he nodded. ‘He is talking to me casually as if I am Lord Aldric.’

I exhaled heavily and was about to walk closer to him when something slammed my brain so hard a scream tore through my lips.

“It's painful.” I groaned, holding my head with both hands. “What's that sound? Where is it coming from?”

The gong…it was sounding repeatedly.

I couldn't even open my eyes. It hurt so bad I thought my head would fall off.

“Stop joking around because I saved you previously. I won't mind feeding on you here if you play pranks on me.” he scolded, and I could hear it, but when I looked at him, he was becoming blurry.

I blinked repeatedly, but nothing changed….until everything turned dark.

No! Not again. I can't do this or he will feed on me.

“Hansel!!!” he screamed as my knees buckled and I knelt on the floor forcefully.

I shook my head, "What's that sound? It's not coming from the manor. The sound is different.”

“What are you talking about? What sound?”

I can't see him. My mind was spinning.

The soft cry of a female….

Someone running so fast among the grass…

What was this?

“You can't die yet. I am not done with you.” I heard his voice again, and it was definitely like a hope I clung to. “Open those eyes.”

And I did, but saw nothing.

He raised me into his arms effortlessly, and that was the last thing I recalled.

My mind shut down as though my brain wasn't functioning.

I can't die yet. I don't want to die please.
