Lucian Rescues Elora

After having a one night stand with Lilian, Lucian immediately regretted it and ordered her to never speak about it again because it was his lowest moment of weakness– even when he was a child, he had never experienced that level of weakness and helplessness.

Ever since he read 'Elora's' heartbreaking text message, he had formed an unusual habit of spying on her with his powers– watching her spend time with Derek and every other thing she spends her day doing. He longed for her everyday but he knew that he could never get her, she had rejected him. He didn't know why the rejection hurt so much because he always told himself that she didn't matter and that she was just an ordinary human but his actions said otherwise, he always found his thoughts going back to Elora.

"You can all leave now." Lucian said, signalling the conclusion of a business meeting that he had just held in his boardroom.

The businessmen in the office all bowed their heads and left the boardroom leaving Lucian to lean back on his chair and tug at his tie that was a bit too tight for comfort.

"Aaah, I wonder how Elora is doing." Lucian said as he waved his hand and used his powers to search for her.

The moment he did that, he quickly realized that something was wrong somewhere. Elora was in tears and her hands were tied above her head, her clothes had been torn off and there was a man in front of her struggling to unbuckle his belt and descend on the blonde beauty that lay on the bed.

"What!!" Lucian jerked forward in panic. This time, he didn't have any time to think about why he was getting so worked up because of an expendable human. "This cannot happen!"

In an instant, Lucian was in front of Derek's door and he kicked it in. The loud crash made the three men in the room to spin around and face him.

"Hey who are you and how did you get into my house?" Derek asked pointedly, his hands holding his trousers from falling.

"Lu..Lucian?" Elora whimpered,

"Is this the Lucian? Well today's your lucky day because I'll be teaching you a memorable lesson." Derek waved the gun suggestively in front of him but Lucian's expression didn't change from the rage that glistened in his eyes

"Get away from her." Lucian seethed,

"Huh? Who the fuck do you think you are to walk into my house and give me orders?" Derek shot at him,

"Don't make me repeat myself fool." Lucian warned,

"Who are you calling a fool?" Derek was enraged, "Guys what are you standing there for? Get him!"

Finn and the other guy quickly sprung into action. They didn't know who Lucian was and how he got into the house but one thing they knew was that he looked rich and rich people weren't always strong.

Well, they were sorely mistaken because Lucian grabbed the heads of his two attackers and smashed them together eliciting a loud cracking sound from their skulls. Lucian was trying so hard to control his strength despite his anger because he didn't want to kill them; that didn't stop Finn and the other man to be bathed in their blood after Lucian attacked them.

Lucian could catch Elora wincing from the corner of his eyes but that wasn't his primary concern– his primary concern was to save her from the hands of this maniac.

"One more step!" Derek shouted in anger and frustration. Lucian paused and looked at him to see what he had to say. "One more step and I'll blow your brains out."

"Tsk! Stupid." Lucian said and took another step forward– he was still trying to control his rage because if he loses control like the last time, Derek's house will suffer the same fate as Methe's castle.

"I'm warning you!" Derek said and took one step backward. He was clearly confused as to why this Lucian didn't show the slightest hint of fear even when he had a gun pointed at his face.

"Lucian... please... he'll kill you.." Elora whimpered as Lucian took another step towards Derek.

"Shut up bitch!" Derek yelled at Elora and hit her with the butt of the gun.

"Ah!" She yelled in pain.

"I think that's enough!" Lucian growled and in one second, he was standing before Derek.

Derek turned the gun towards him and pressed the trigger thrice releasing three platinum bullets that effortlessly bounced off Lucian's chest.

"What the h-" Derek didn't get the chance to complete his sentence because Lucian held him and flung him out of the window eliciting a loud drawn out scream from Derek which was cut short with the sound of crashing glass.

'He must've landed on the windscreens of one of the cars downstairs.' Lucian thought and turned to Elora.

There was a mortified expression on her face, she was a bit relieved that she had been saved from being raped but she was more terrified now that she was before a man who just shrugged three bullets away from his body like they were paper.

"L..Lucian.. w..what are you?" She whimpered, "p...please don't hurt me."

He knew that he had messed up by allowing her see his demon powers and he knew that he had to correct it– by erasing her memory.

"Shhhh shhh, it's okay now, you're safe." Lucian said as he sat beside her on the bed and felt her body tense, at that moment she would've run away from him without looking back if she wasn't tied. Her body was bare except for the bra and panty. She looked so tempting and attractive but he quickly averted his gaze, 'this is not the time...' he told himself,

Gently smoothening down her blonde hair with his hand, he emitted a dark red glow and Elora closed her eyes only to open it shortly after and moisten up on seeing him– partly because of the trauma of almost getting raped and partly because of the happiness from seeing him.

Lucian had placed a false memory in her mind after removing the one where he shrugged off the bullets. He made it seem that she called him earlier and he ran to the mansion as fast as he could, using his superior combat techniques to best Derek and his accomplices. It was a bit far fetched, but it was manageable.

"Argh!" Elora held her head and jerked forward,
