Destroying My Own Novel
Chapter 50: Distraction.

"Did something happen to the boss? He had been so quiet lately. I mean, he rarely talks if it's unnecessary, but this time feels a bit different, don't you guys think?" Rozan asked as he looked at Gunnar and the others who had been busy training Sven, Vincze, and Nagy.

"Jeanne, why don't you go and talk to him? You might be able to get something if you ask," Agnez said and stared at Jeanne as she tilted her head toward Mykel. Jeanne nodded and approached Mykel who was smoking on the balcony.

"Mykel?" Jeanne asked but Mykel didn't respond to her call. She walked closer and stood next to Mykel with his empty eyes staring at nothing. "Mykel?" she asked once again as she gently grabbed Mykel's left arm.

Mykel's expression changed when he noticed that Jeanne was next to him. "Yes? Do you need something?" he asked.

"Everyone is worried that you have been acting weirdly for the past three days. Did something happen? Do you want to talk about it?" Jeanne asked with a worried expression and she didn't want to look away and kept staring at Mykel in the eye.

Mykel smiled as he rubbed his left thumb on Jeanne's cheek. "I'm fine, I'm just a bit tired, that's all," he said as he kept smiling. "I will go and get some rest for today. You guys are free for today, also tomorrow you all will bring those guys to the tower to raise their level so don't forget," he continued as he rubbed Jeannie's head, and then he left the training room.

The night came and he couldn't stop thinking about the vision that Edith had because the [Oracle] skill always told the truth. It could be changed but he didn't know when, why, or where Asmond was going to kill him and not to mention the pale hand that took his dead body from the dark sky.

Mykel could only think of the possibility from the vision he heard from Edith. One, Asmond attained something powerful enough to kill him in the future and if that was the case, he had to make sure to manipulate Asmond's skills. Two, the pale hand that Edith saw in her vision would belong to Mara, and if that was the case, he might do something that break the balance as Mara warned him.

"Are you home, Mykel?" Lyneth voice could be heard from the front door.

"I'm here," Mykel said as he leaned on the door with his naked chest and cigarette in his mouth.

Lyneth raised her eyebrow with a flirtatious smile as she stared at Mykel's chest. "Do you want me to satisfy you tonight?"

"Yes, and stay there," Mykel said as walked toward her and burned the cigarette into ashes. "Since I'm the one who needs it, I will carry you to the bed," he said and immediately lifted Lyneth by the waist and carried her to the bed.

"You should know that I'm in heat as well, so please be careful or I might get pregnant," Lyneth whispered and moaned as Mykel kissed her neck.

"So what? I can impregnate you if I want to since you're mine now," Mykel answered without hesitation as he kept kissing her neck which started to make Lyneth moan louder.

"Please don't say it like that, I might change my mind about not wanting to have a child," Lyneth said as her body started to shake from pleasure.

The sun rose and they both were still ongoing until finally, Lyneth passed out from exhaustion. Mykel didn't realize it was morning already and he immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower since he had a plan to go to the tower.

Mykel came out of the bathroom and he heard a knock from the front door, he checked who it was and it was Lyneth's assistant.

"Yes?" Mykel said with only a towel covering the bottom part of his body. "If you're looking for Lyneth, she just went to sleep," he continued as he looked at the assistant.

"O-oh... then I will come back later," The woman said and looked away while she blushed.

"You want to come in? She might wake up anytime," Mykel asked but the assistant felt a bit uncomfortable. "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. Come in," he continued as he walked back inside the apartment with the door opened.

Because Mykel left into the bedroom, she couldn't say no and the door was opened, she had no choice but to come inside the apartment.

Mykel sat in the living room with Lyneth assistant with a glass of vodka in his hand. "Your name is Erica, right? So what do you want to discuss with Lyneth?"

"Yes, my name is-" Erica paused before she could finish her sentence and she slowly looked at Mykel as she gulped nervously. All she could think of was Mykel and his muscular body that she saw earlier and it aroused her.

"What's wrong?" Mykel asked as he drank the vodka.

"No-nothing, I was thinking that Miss Lyneth is so lucky to have you," Erica said but then she immediately regretted it because she just spoke her mind.

"Really? Why is that?" Mykel asked as he stared at her and rested his head on his fist.

"You're handsome, tall, muscular, and she looked sexually satisfied," Erica answered but then covered her mouth because something was wrong with her.

"Is that so?" Mykel turned his head as if he wasn't interested in her words and continued drinking his vodka.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to say that, Mister Mykel," Erica said with her red face.

"Well I said that I won't do anything to you, but you can," Mykel said and stared at Erica in the eye. "If you're curious why don't you try it and feel it yourself?" he continued as he put the glass on the table.

Erica gulped and looked at Mykel full of lust so suddenly.

"Mykel?" Lyneth asked as she walked out of the bedroom and saw Mykel was watching the TV on his own.

"You slept like a log, do you even know that the sun is about to go down?" Mykel asked with an empty vodka bottle in his hand.

"My back hurts," Lyneth said as she massaged her back.

Mykel chuckled softly as he walked toward her. "I'm sorry, I will give you a massage then," he said with a smile on his face.

In the end, they did it again but Mykel was finally satisfied with his need.

"It's the first time I see you like this, is something in your mind that bothers you?" Lyneth asked as she lay on the bed next to Mykel.

"Yes, something is bothering me and I can't get it out of my head," Mykel answered as he massaged the bridge of his nose.

"You know I'm capable enough to help you, right? Just tell me what's in your mind?" Lyneth replied as she rubbed Mykel's chest.

"I'm fine now and it's all thanks to you," Mykel said as he stroked her hair.

"I don't buy it," Lyneth said as she sat up and suddenly sat on top of Mykel. "Tell me," she said with a serious expression.

"I feel threatened," Mykel replied as he stared at Lyneth with her messy hair.

"By whom? The Fraternity?" Lyneth asked with her forehead furrowed.

Mykel sighed and nodded. "Edith saw a vision of my death that I don't know why, where, and when, but it has something to do with them,"

Lyneth stared at Mykel with her eyes wide open and she just sat there and didn't know what to say.

"I can see it in your face, you know?" Mykel said with a gentle smile on his face.

"But that doesn't mean it will come true, right?" Lyneth asked with a worried expression and nervousness in her voice.

"Yes, but I don't know how to prevent it from happening," Mykel answered.

"Then how are we going to stop it from happening?" Lyneth asked as her hands started to tremble.

"I don't know," Mykel answered and sighed as he looked at the dark sky. "Oh, by the way, Erica was here earlier in the morning, she said that the Fraternity wanted to make some kind of a proposal for the future," he said.

"That's it!" Lyneth said as she pumped Mykel's chest.

Mykel furrowed his forehead and looked at her with confusion. "What?"

"That vision must have something to do with our current situation with them. If you didn't tell me, we might keep making them our enemies. That could be the reason why she had that vision," Lyneth explained. "If we take a different approach, we should be able to prevent that from happening, right?" she asked as she kept staring Mykel in the eye.

"Different approach? Like what? Put our hatred for them aside?" Mykel asked.

"No, I will never ever forgive them for what they did. We are going to pretend and when things are in our favor, we can destroy them once everything is over," Lyneth answered.

Mykel hummed and furrowed his forehead. "Different approach... I see what you mean and it's worth the try," he said under his breath. "Are you okay with this?" he asked.

"If it's for you, I would do anything," Lyneth whispered and started to kiss Mykel's neck.
