POSSESSION: The Hidden Omega In All Alphas' Academy [BL]-Chapter 189: I Will Burn The World!

With a loud noise similar to the bursting of a firecracker, before Kylian could stop thinking, the dusky sky above their head was illuminated with bright yellowish-red flames when the oil lamp burst aloud inside the paper lantern, immediately reducing the entire setup into ashes, especially the lucky windchimes which made that specific loud noise.

In the beginning initial seconds, the lantern caught fire first but before the burst, some faint white smoke scattered out of that paper lantern which only existed for a few seconds before dissipating with the strong mountain breeze.

However, the white smoke appeared like some scribbled writing from afar, but hardly anyone could notice it vividly as their eyes were anxiously watching the lantern being caught up with fire.

The loud sound faded the serene smile from that middle-aged monk’s face, however, the elderly monk stared still at the scenario, holding a blank expression on his face. In fact for a few seconds, Zenith was spellbound to witness the sudden turnover of the situation, but his main concern that rose in his mind was...how would Kylian react after this?

Amidst that anticipating silence, Kylian was the most shocked one who couldn’t blink his lashes, staring ardently at that beautiful red lantern that dissipated from his sight in the form of mere ashes. It wasn’t just an ordinary lantern, but a bundle of hope about their future where he had started to imagine Zenith in it.

Strangely enough until a few days ago, Kylian never knew there would be one person stubbornly barging into his life and would never hesitate to cherish him so much...that to the extent that his heart would unknowingly accept him without a second thought.

Especially after he had realized his feelings for Zenith, Kylian knew well that imagining a life without that person next to him would be quite an impossible task for him, and that’s why he had put everything at stake just on one prayer to let the sacred ritual become a proof as their happily ever after in future. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

But his hopes were brutally crushed, just in a similar way when he transitioned into an omega on the night of his 19th birthday, when all his life he had only yearned to become a strong Alpha. Watching those tiny scatters of ashes disappearing from their sight, Kylian couldn’t stop his throat from being choked with an urge to sob, as his cheeks had started to sting hard when he tried suppressing that feeling.

"Oh no...this is the first time...we have witnessed the sacred lamp burst like that..." After keeping a long heavy pause, the middle-aged monk first broke the intense silence between them, exhaling a heavy sigh as he lowered his gaze down. "The lantern should have floated smoothly up in the air and disappeared from our sight...but it is the first time we saw it actually bursting like a firecracker. I guess...then it can be said...the result was failure..."

"I don’t give a damn about all these things!" Startling the monk, Zenith grunted aloud in an irked voice, shuffling his silver bangs above his forehead as he sounded quite cranky from his tone. "I never believed this kind of ritual could predict our future in the first place!

"What’s more important is us! Our feelings matter the most, and if we are together, I don’t think such an outcome of that ritual would be able to bother our peace of mind...right, babe... Baby? Are you crying!?"

While voicing out his words aloud, it seemed as if Zenith was trying to make Kylian feel at ease. But the second he slid his glance at him, watching his tearful sad ocean eyes glistening up at the sky twisted his heart with a sharp ache. In this whole world, if there’s anything Zenith despised the most after his father was to watch the sadness in his precious Kyle’s eyes, but unfortunately, he had to witness that displeased sight right at that moment.

"Baby? Don’t feel sad... I actually never believed such a ritual could predict our lives in the first place! I had told you...no matter what happens, my love for you would never change... So, please...look at me and don’t feel upset..." Impatiently he cupped Kylian’s pale face with his cool palms and tried to make him lift his gaze down at him.

But just with his one touch, Kylian couldn’t hold his tearful angst inside him anymore, and pushed Zenith light with his right arm, mumbling in a bleak voice, "But the prediction might also be true, Zenith. This shrine has spiritual existence surrounding everywhere...so...what if the spirits were trying to warn us through this outcome?"

"I don’t give a fuck about anything like that..." Frowning his brows with his dark onyx eyes narrowed in concern, Zenith grabbed Kylian’s hand with which he pushed him earlier, before he declaimed in an ardent voice, "I don’t care even if I gotta hear something like that from the Holy Mother herself, but my love for you is beyond anything else that exists in this world. So, yes, I really don’t bother about anything else—"

"But I do bother about it!" Zenith’s cold desperate scowl made Kylian start to sob bitterly, with his voice shuddering hard as he squeezed those words out of him. "Everyone I love ends up miserable...I loved Mom with my whole heart but I could never see her happy...and I always knew...it was my existence that had made her life tough.

"She overworked herself to provide everything for me, to the point she had to go through surgery a few days after I came to the Academy! I wanted to become an Alpha who could be able to protect her from this world...but that didn’t happen either! Nothing I ever wanted went along my way...And now...you... Now that I tried to test our future ahead...it turned out miserable too...Maybe I am the jinx of everyone’s life—"

"I still don’t care!" Before Kylian could vent his disdainful words, Zenith firmly grabbed him by both his shoulder when he tried to push him lightly away once again. Gazing ardently into his distressed ocean eyes, his jaw clenched hard when he muttered, "Even if for a millisecond I believe that this would be the outcome of our future together, I would still accept it without a complaint. I would rather prefer to be miserable with you, instead of imagining a life without you, Kyle. Don’t hope for the impossible one..."

"Y-You have lost your mind, you idiot!" The desperation in Zenith’s voice to hold onto him despite him trying to push him away had moved Kylian to tears, as he struggled hard to endure that severe ache stirred deep down in his chest. Clenching onto Zenith’s shirt on his chest, he quivered, "It’s still not too late... You have known me just for a few days...and...to protect you from any kind of misfortune, even if I walk away from your life, I would do that so—"

"Walk away?" Suddenly, Zenith’s voice lowered as he grunted in a deep husky voice that sounded very intimidating, echoing in the open air. Glowering his dark eyes at Kylian, his jaws clenched hard when Zenith muttered, "Don’t you dare talk spout such bullshit ever again, Kyle. The only way you’ll get to walk away from me...will be over my dead body. Otherwise, you can’t leave me...not in this life...and not in next life either..."

"Zenith, stop it! You’re just being crazy—"

"Even if I have gone crazy, shouldn’t you take the responsibility and hold my hand tight!? Why are you talking about leaving me!? After making me unable to leave without you anymore, now you want to abandon me too, just like Mom!?"

A fervent shriek escaped from Zenith when he clenched onto Kylian’s arm when he tried to retreat a step back from him. Zenith’s dark onyx eyes were glistening with tears but had an obsessive tint in them which appeared very scary to look at, "All of this ruckus you’re making is just because of a damn lantern bursting on its own in the sky!? You’re the one who’s insane, Kyle!"

"It wasn’t just a lantern! It was the hope for the future I have been looking forward to!" Kylian let out a pained scream followed by his distressed tears that didn’t know when to stop from streaming down. The painful agony deep down in his heart was making it hard for him to breathe, but he still squeezed the minimal strength remaining in his body to profess to Zenith.

"I knew it since the first day that our worlds were far apart from each other... A worthless poor omega like me would have nothing to offer you, when you belong from the most influential family of the country. Our difference in social status had worried me since the first day...but...I still thought it wouldn’t be a matter if love is enough.

"But...look at the future awaiting us! Open your eyes and see it for yourself! The world would never let us together...they will never accept us..."

"THEN I WILL BURN THIS FUCKIN’ WORLD IF THEY DARE TO TOUCH MY OMEGA!" Proclaimed with a loud growl, his words winced Kylian hard when he vividly saw the dangerous obsession prominent in Zenith’s dark eyes towards him.

Moving closer, Zenith grabbed both of his arms tight within his grip when he proclaimed aloud, "I WILL KILL ANYONE IF THEY TRY TO COME BETWEEN US! YEAH...I AM CRAZY...I KNOW IT... BUT THERE WILL NEVER BE A WORLD THAT WOULD STAND IN BETWEEN US, DO YOU UNDERSTAND!?"
