Caught Between Two Worlds

All Celestine ever wanted was to be someone powerful so that she won't be looked down upon. That was what she wished on a blissful night. And that very wish made her life go downhill years later ever since she came across a sacred pendant. When an invitation lands on her lap to the most prestigious university of Adrian, nothing could stop her from going there. That is until her life gets entwined with two men, the cruellest foes of each other which she wishes to escape from. But the universe paints a different picture. On a dreary day, she falls to her near-death and finds herself in the ancient land of Vitalis. With an unintentionally committed crime to her name, she must face the justice of the place where mercy is invaluable and death is inevitable and of little value. And so her trial begins at the mercy of the tainted hands of the Masked Tyrant. Alastair Arden Waldorf. Ruthless, cold-blooded and faceless. When things turn for the worse, will she be able to return to her land and not be involved in a terrifying history? Will she save, kill or escape from the tyrant to the other two men when he shall come for her? Shall love prevail between the two or will they stick to their time to avoid an inevitable curse? ~ WARNING: Mature Content (18+) Cover Design: imagineTishaD (Webnovel) Image Credit: fromKITnoc (DeviantArt) Want to support and interact with the author?

~ 107: A Place With More Foes Than Companions - Part 6 ~

'What a brave woman to touch him like that,' I commented inaudibly with a smirk. 'I wonder why I am not doing anything when I feel like he's toying with her and not endangering himself.'

I wondered if we had switched places or had some of his behaviour rubbed off on me. But then it was because he had still left his shields open and sometimes, I was able to see what he was thinking as I sneaked into it like my own home.

This was the joy that Lucas must have enjoyed from seeing my shields open. But this was a dark person's mind where only tainted thoughts stayed. And yet I was entering the place, despite knowing the dangers that lurked there.

"That was a very beautiful trick and show that you put up, Miss Moreau," he said with a smack of his lips. "Rubbing the glass with Legrand's arsenic tonic so that when the person drinks it, they shall faint and die a slow death. Were you so eager to ask one for yourself, dear Lilith?"
