妻子的欲望

The first attack was opened by Nicholas. He ran and jumped as he swung his claws, but Lucas immediately dodged.  Nicholas\' attack only hit the air, but an arcing wind wave formed and slashed everything in its path.

In the blink of an eye, one part of the beautiful manor grounds turned into chaos.

After the failed attack, Nicholas immediately turned around and jumped back as he sensed Lucas was charging towards him.

He jumped backward just before Lucas\' claws hit him and landed smoothly on the edge of the fallen tree. Thus, an explosion occurred when Lucas\' claws hit the ground and left a fairly wide crater.

Everyone who witnessed this was tense. Not a few praised Lucas\' prowess as the Beta of the Blood River Pack. But some were very anxious, knowing that the opponent of the beta was an Alpha.

Lucas darted at Nicholas, and they grappled with each other through the fallen trees. The two vicious creatures took turns tearing and ripping each other\'s bodies.

Sheets of furry skin seemed to fall and scattered in various places, along with pools of blood that gave off a rancid smell every time the wind blew.

No sound was heard other than the roar of the two creatures amid the sound of tree trunks being smashed into pieces by the impact of the two creatures\' claws.

Everyone was silent. Everyone froze.

The two wolves now lunged at each other swinging their claws, two arcing waves of air struck and clashed then exploded and expanded like fireworks.

All the trees around them were blown away, the pillars of the buildings were broken. the front part of the manor collapsed and fell on some of the servants inside.

"Ah!" A servant fell to the ground and was crushed by the rubble.

Luciel and Jan ran hand in hand, they managed to get out of their room not long before the roof of their room collapsed.

They were very surprised to see the scene in front of them. Some of the servants died from being crushed by the building, and some were trying to get out.

Not long after, guards came from outside and helped free the surviving servants.

The two children were silent with their hearts pounding, they were tense and afraid. It was their first time seeing something like this.

"Luciel, watch out!"

Jan quickly pushed his brother away when he saw a block of ceiling fall on top of Luciel\'s head.

"Are you okay?" Jan asked as soon as they got up from their vulnerable positions.

"Um. Thank you. How about you?" Luciel asked back, and Jan answered him with a nod of his head.

Everyone who saw they were fine breathed a sigh of relief after feeling so tense. They didn\'t know what their Alpha would do to them if Luciel and Jan got hurt.

Back at the outside of the manor.

Nicholas and Lucas, who had been tossed away from the effects of their attacks, had just risen up. Nicholas was very surprised when he saw a good part of Duke Romanov\'s manor collapse. As soon as he remembered Jan and Luciel inside, his heart was filled with worry.

"Gosh!"  Nicholas dashed to go in and check on Jan and Luciel\'s condition, but Lucas immediately blocked the king\'s path and made an attack to stop him. It just made Nicholas feel sick.

ROAAR!!

Nicholas then increased his speed and fought Lucas furiously. Lucas was surprised. He also increased the speed so that their movements could not be followed by the eyes.

Over time, Nicholas began to show his superiority. He managed to dismantle Lucas\' defense and do a barrage of attacks.

Head, back, chest, legs. Lucas\' skin was torn apart by the impact of the king\'s claws and bites. His brown fur had turned maroon from absorbing the blood, and it wasn\'t long before Lucas was sent flying through the rubble.

,m Trembling, Lucas tried to get up but couldn\'t. His body had reached its limit.

The horse carriage stopped in front of Viscount Verhoven\'s residence. After a long journey, Karenina finally arrived at Hauntingen.

Viscount Verhoven was quite surprised by Karenina\'s sudden and unannounced arrival.

"Karenina, are you all right? I was very worried when I received the news that you were trying to end your life," Viscount Verhoven said, shortly after Karenina stepped out of the carriage.

"Father, can we talk inside? I have something important to tell you?"

Viscount Verhovent nodded slowly, then put his arm around his daughter and walked into the house.

After freshening up and resting for a while, Karenina began to tell her father the reason why she was so desperate to attempt suicide.

When he heard his daughter\'s story, Viscount Verhoven was surprised. But at the same time, he was afraid because he saw that Karenina\'s love for the king had turned into an obsession. Because of that obsession, Karenina didn\'t even think twice about ending her life.

The viscount would not let his daughter do that. He was determined that he would do everything he could to get her to marry the king. Besides, the king should have married Karenina, for they had been engaged for so long.

Their family had already endured a lot of shame. After all these years, there was still no clarity on King Nicholas\' side.

"Hadn\'t you thought about how your father felt when you did that? What if the king didn\'t manage to save you? How do you think I would feel?" Viscount Verhoven always got goosebumps when he recalled the story of Karenina jumping from one of the tallest towers of the Riga Palace.

He couldn\'t imagine if the king didn\'t catch Karenina.

Certainly, his daughter would not survive.

Karenina felt a little guilty when she saw her father\'s sad face. She didn\'t know why she could be so stubborn.

At that time, she was really hit by the king\'s words, plus when the king suspected her of faking it, she felt very scared.

She was so frightened that she couldn\'t bear to face the fact that she had lost the king. Rather than losing the king, she would rather lose her life.
