Lucian's POV
*****
It was one thing going for something "relaxing" with not just Elian—but Kyren tagging along. It was another thing for them to have a threesome, unlike any sexual experience he's had all his life.
But THIS? Everything Elian revealed to him out of the blue? The accusation hanging in the air alongside his betrothal gift?
Lucian didn't know how to feel.
Elian stood before him in the cave, still naked and raw from the steamy moment they all shared. The orange lights from the pool's mana crystals beside them highlighted his features and the pain twisting them.
Kyren stood at the side, distant but still observant.
"Tell me why the system picked up curses in this gift meant to harm me." Elian's sharp demand still stung his mind like a nail driving into his skull.
His gift.
