Late at night, Lory secretly returned to her courtyard all by herself because Zhao Li Xin have to pretend he's still struggled to search the shadow tigers in the wilderness. After she takes a bath she open the window in her rooms and gazing to the moon, it's been a while since she watches the moon alone, it feel quite nostalgic.
She wonders how everyone doing in Verrion, what is brother doing right now is he still loves to take three hours naps, is Fred still like to nag her brother and the others. Is he still bickering with Fargo as he used to and what about Jay? Is he got dump again? is clift still spend his time in the library or is he busy taking care of her brother as a mother would be? reminiscence about them feel bittersweet for her and yet her mouth curved as she remembers all the stupid thing she had done with them.
People would say she have a painful life but Lory disagrees with them, her life is a bliss, she was care and love by everyone around her, she never been lied or betrayed by anyone close to her unlike Zhao Li Xin and Ming Yue Yin. Her father maybe strick but he always there whenever she needed him, he guides her, taught her, and prepared her to become the best she could be as a person as well as a princess, she will not become who she is now without her father guidance.
And her Mother….her beloved mother, even in death she keeps protecting her, her mother used to say to her and Lucas 'My love for you as deep as the ocean, as vast as the sky, as much as the stars in the sky' she thought it's only an impression but it's true, her mother died to protect her and keep protecting even after she was gone. In this world could anyone was loved as much as her?
And when she thought she would be alone, Zhao Li Xin came to her life, and once again she was loved deeply. then she met with Ming Yue Yin, Bei Li Yan, Jin Hao, and the others. Zhao Li Xin has given her place to call home and love that she lost before too long she becomes attached to this world, she could never thank him enough and yet she leads the calamity to this world.
And what is this demon up to, why he interferes with human measly problem, what does he want?
'YOU ARE MINE!'
Lory got a shiver all over her bods when she remembers the last word Lazarus shouted at her, she clenched her fist tightly until it loses it's color.
'That dammed snake' Lory cursed in her head, if he wants her then let him come, there must be another way to destroy that demon once for all. She will never let Lazarus hurt everyone she loves, not in this world or any other world, she will not be given up and after all she fights better when she was push to the corner.
___________________________
Another woman also can sleep tonight, she lay on the couch with her hair cascade on her shoulder, she has oval shape face with a pair of deep-set eyes, her mouth is small but plump just like cherry and her skin is fair as a white jade without any blemish, she looks pure and innocent and slightly frail just like small jasmine flower, she is the epitome of innocent beauty if only she dresses more conservatively.
She only wears her inner white robes and the collars a little bit lose showing her clavicle. She feel the gust of cold wind behind her back "I know you will come…" she turns her head slowly with seductive smiles bloom in her delicate face.
"Mo Ning Yuan" he called her awkwardly.
"Brother Xie, it's been a while" she welcomed him with sweet but shy smiles just like an innocent maiden meeting with her beloved man.
Mo Ning Yuan already used with they way Xie Hua Ling looking at her, when she was still a child and innocent she didn't understand what is that look mean, she only feel uncomfortable and embarrassed but knows…she enjoying it "You always sneaking around to my room whenever you have a bad mood, it's been two years since the last time you visit my bedroom, since my brother died…" she faintly smiles as she pours wine on the porcelain cup gracefully.
"You still blame me for what happened, huh?" he sneers
"Blame you…" she widens her eyes then she tilted her head as she acknowledged something "No, not anymore…." she shoves the wine cup as she invited him to drink.
Xie Hua Ling scoffed, he flicks her robes before he takes a sit "I find it hard to believe Ning Yuan, you have accused in front of the elders, even your father dare to question me"
Mo Ning Yuan stifles as she takes a seat and raised her winecup elegantly "Should you blaming me, you said you will cure his 'disease' and yet you kill him, you used me to kill him" she said with indifferent tone then she sips her wine as if it was nothing.
"The cured for such a disease is death, there's no enough medicine to cure your Brother, if he still alive you think you can get away from him, he's been molested you since you eleven years old even your cultivation has ruined because of him"
Of course, she knows, her brother want to caged her he never let her have a chance to spread her wing even her cultivation is only a scammed using a pill to make her look like having high cultivation but the truth is her foundation is so weak like sand because all her breakthrough is coming from pill and elixir she even never earned to stabilizes her Qi after the breakthrough and after a few years her body gradually ruined and her cultivation degreased later she unable to cultivated again. She hated her brother for broken her wings but she loved him too because for a long time he had become her everything.
"Oh please don't act like a righteous man here, not in front of me" Mo Ning Yuan rolls her eyes "I know you jealous with my Brother talent, you feel threatened by him that's why you need to get rid of him but it's funny…you think after my brother dies you will have smooth life but Xie Xiu Wei came and take your position, I bet it was you who incited him to attack Long Ming" Mo Ning Yuan mocked him as she sneers at Xie Hua Ling.
"Mo Ning Yuan!" he hits the table violently.
She ignores Xie Hua Ling's anger rather than scarred she feel aroused by his anger "And yet nothing change after Xie Xiu Wei perishes another one is coming... Xie Xian Zie even Chen Hu Yin shove you out of the limelight, the only advantages you have is Nan Yu Qi so you abandoned you long childhood sweetheart for exchange of power, tell me, brother Xie, what kinda man are you, do you feel pathetic?" her eyes filled with mockery she sneers at him as if he was a joke, but maybe he is, he can't handle the competition he keeps falling out, he used all dirty tricks he got to get rid his rival but the new one always appear out of nowhere.
Shammed and anger brimmed in his eyes, he looks Mo Ning Yuan with bloodshot eyes, he grabs her collar violently then he pressed her to the table "Whore!" he shouts furiously "Who do you think you are! You just a dirty woman who sleeps with your own brother, you are weak and useless you can't say no to anyone not to your brother not even to me!" Xie Hua Ling choked her neck vigorously as he screams at her.
"Hahaha….I know, I know what I am…" she laugh and cough at the same times but there's no fear in her eyes but excitement, she loves it, she like him better like this, cruel, brute and violent is better than watching his wearing the mask of noble gentleman young master Xie. He looks more captivating like this.
"I am a filthy woman, I know people would scorn me, they would be disgusted, and they would condemn me. I don't mind, in fact, I don't care anymore, whatever I want is too late. My brother takes my innocent and you teach me to sin. I know what I am…how about you?" she spread her legs as she slowly circles around his waist "I know who you are Xie Hua Ling, you never need to pretend in front of me, we are the same. Your beautiful fiance will never understand you…not like me"
Her voice is sweet and gentle her eyes as clear as a clear night sky without the cloud, she still as beautiful as before. His strangle gradually loose, he fixed his eyes to her moistened lips while her legs gently c.a.r.e.s.s his waist. her soft legs brazenly hold his waist tighten and suddenly awaken the burning fire within him, she reminds him something he thought he had long forgotten.
his mind back to the first time he touches her that night he remembers her scared and confuses looks just like a rabbit inside the cage she looks so helpless but now she looks different, she didn't look like a harmless rabbit anymore she more like a snake trapping her prey and he is the prey and he knew she eager to devour him.
"Tell me what you want brother Xie?" she asked with a coquettish smile.
"Everything….."
