Chapter 48 - Severed Bond (1/2)

Luke watched the girl screaming in pain. He watched her shedding tears of blood and shrieking with madness.

He watched her go through a torment only she was privy to, shedding tears along with her.

Seeing her suffering pained his heart. Seeing her cry with utter despair wrenched his black heart.

But he did not step forward to stop the voice. He did not step forward to interfere.

He wanted every connection and bond she had with the werewolf completely severed.

Because he wanted her, completely and irrevocably his, in both mind and soul.

For that to happen, enduring a little bit of pain was nothing.

Thinking to this point, his pained expression turned impassive, dark tendrils swirling around his body as he watched her madly thrash in the red machine.

”How much longer before you are done?” He indifferently asked the voice.

”Hehehehe.....Just a little more. She is more stubborn than I thought.”

”I want to form the mate-bond with her the moment you are done.”

”Hehehe...Of course.”

The eerie laughter resounded in the red room, filling the place with a sinister vibe.

There was a gnawing void in her soul, devouring her senses. She thrashed and screamed madly in the realm of darkness, but the agonizing pain did not go away.

She screamed and cried until her voice cracked and her blood tears dried.

She screamed and cried until the pain in her throbbing heart, aching mind, and miserable soul turned dull and numb.

She screamed and cried until she no longer remembered who she was, where she was, and why she was even screaming and crying.

And she screamed and cried until she no longer had any self of identity.

In the endless void of darkness, a black light flew into her body, entering her core.

The black light twisted and wriggled around her lifeless soul, entangling and entwining in an attempt to fuse.

She thought the light was very ugly, but did not know how to draw away from it.

As it wrapped around her, a feeling of violation invaded her senses, making her feel hatred and disgust.

Wanting to rid herself of such nauseating feeling, she crouched into herself, forming an invisible shield.

The two souls were not made to complement each other, as such the fusion process was also not as smooth.

The harder the black soul entangled around the dull red soul, the fiercer the repulsion.

”Why am I not able to complete the mate-bond?” Luke angrily growled as he failed at fusing his soul with the girl's for the sixth time.

'It did not seem like it took the werewolf any effort to form the bond'

As Luke recalled the scene of the werewolf claiming the girl as mate, he could not stop himself from gritting his teeth in hatred.

Even though he met her first, she ended up forming a bond with the werewolf. And now, when he was working so hard to fix the mistake, she was resisting so strongly.

Unbeknownst to Luke, the smooth formation of the bond was not in Versailles capability, as the fusion of the soul was a matter beyond ordinary creatures.
