day12

"Alan... Alan..."

"Lucian, you have lost your mind."

"Why can't you just look at me?"

The male insect sighed and stopped talking.

———————

Fanlan was chained to a large velvet bed.

This was a basement with isolated signals, and it had been just two days since he was abducted by Lucian.

"Alan, time for lunch."

The beautiful female insect with black hair and red eyes held the dinner plate and knelt beside the male insect. She scooped up the food with a silver spoon and fed him carefully and attentively.

The dishes are quite delicious traditional cuisine. The bowls and plates are not made of ordinary new materials, but antique-style tableware made of gold and silver. They are exquisite and sophisticated, and very expensive. It can be seen that they are completely based on Fanlan's aesthetic preferences.

After feeding, he used a silk handkerchief to wipe the soup off Fanlan's lips, took away the plate and returned to the room, took off his coat, climbed onto the bed, and snuggled quietly beside Fanlan.

Fanlan picked up the book on the bedside table with his relatively free hand and continued reading the story he had been reading halfway.

"Alan, let me be your queen."

The female insect spoke again.

"Lucian..." Vanlan just called his name, and there seemed to be an imperceptible sigh at the end of the word. Lucian felt as if the tip of his ear was brushed by a velvet feather tail. He couldn't help burying his face in the male insect's arms and took a deeper breath.

Lucian is a somewhat gloomy female insect.

As one of the unpopular and marginal heirs of the Tucson family, Lucian's childhood was not comfortable.

Unlike the generally strong female Zerg, Lucian looked just averagely thin at the age of ten when they began to grow taller. This tall appearance was standard in human society, but among the female Zerg, he undoubtedly looked thin and defective. What's more, he also had a face that tended to be feminine, which was also far from the social definition of the aesthetic of female Zerg.

His father was just a female servant of no status in the Tucson family. Naturally, Lucian became the one who was bullied and teased among many brothers.

They laughed at his thinness, his unsociability, and the fact that he did not look like a female insect, but instead had a look that was somewhat similar to that of a male insect, a clumsy imitation of a female insect. For a long time, Lucian did not dare to raise his face to walk, did not dare to make eye contact with other insects. He wanted to hide in the shadows, to stay in a room with only electronic screens forever, and it would be best if he could be isolated from the world forever.

Until one day, he was caught out of his cabin as a follower and went to a party at the Wash family's house with his nominal female brother, the third heir to the Tucson family.

A group of young masters gathered in the hall, laughing and having fun. Lucian even saw quite a few male insects with exquisite looks among them. They had sweet smiles and flattering eyes. To these female insects who were born at the top, the so-called precious male insects were nothing more than high-level playthings that could be summoned at any time.

He quietly left the corner and hid in the insect-free courtyard.

He missed his cabin.

“Rustle—”

Lucian was startled to find a bug behind the bushes. He lowered his head reflexively and could only see a pair of exquisite white leather boots. A pleasant voice came from the front.

"Hello?"

He didn't dare look up or make a sound.

"Are you here to get some fresh air too... Well, it's really too stuffy in there."

The voice continued.

"My name is Fanlan, what's your name?"

Vanlan.

Lucian pondered over this in his mind and secretly glanced up at the other party. It was an extremely handsome male insect, more handsome than any other male insect in the hall just now.

"My name is...Lucian."

He took a quick glance and tried to hide his head, but the male insect unexpectedly reached out and gently pinched his chin, as if he had discovered something and came closer to examine him. Lucian could smell a pleasant scent on him. What was it? Flowers? Mint?

“Lucian…” He inevitably met the male insect’s eyes and was so nervous that he forgot to breathe.

Then he heard the voice say—

"You have beautiful eyes."

————————

At the age of fourteen, Lucian Toussaint showed an incredible physical talent that shocked his family and beyond.

The small side room where he lived and hid all year round was exposed to the eyes of the Tucson family master. The walls were filled with light screens and flying formulas. That was the language that the lonely and eccentric female insect had silently recorded in countless sleepless days and nights facing the only shining celestial body.

From then on, no Zerg could bully Lucian anymore.

His brain was highly praised by the Zerg King as a treasure bestowed by God to the Zerg.

Treasure.

Lucian pondered over the words, his brows still grim. Although he was taller than most female insects, he was not thin either. However, the depression he had been carrying had never dissipated.

The most precious treasure...

When will his greatest treasure be his?

———————

Lucian buried his face in Vanlan's arms.

He sniffed the scent of the male insect greedily.

He really missed his male insect to the point of going crazy, especially after his "somewhat" excessive confession last time. Fanlan asked him to go back and calm down, and she didn't meet him again for a long time.

From the surveillance, he saw his male insect chatting and laughing with his classmates, dating with the female insect, and saw him once again boarding the pirates' spaceship to travel and adventure in space.

Lucian couldn't stand it any longer.

Hence the current scene.

Fanlan had a rare headache.

Not out of fear for his own safety, but because the situation was getting out of control for Lucian.

It was fear of such an outcome that caused him to stop seeing Lucian Toussaint.

Not to mention that based on his understanding of Lucian, the possibility that the other party would cause physical harm to him was extremely low. Just considering Fanlan's own emphasis on safety, kidnapping and other means would not pose much threat to him.

Two days is basically the limit.

Whether it was the alarm settings or the location of Lester, including some friends who had the bad habit of checking his real-time location, including Lucian. Vanlan was a very difficult person to disappear.

Kidnapping a male Zerg is an extremely serious crime in the Zerg. Even if the power of the Tucson family and Lucian's status can help him ease the situation, there are also forces such as Chiraso and Wash outside who will use all means to sentence him to death.

Especially Leicester.

Fanlan knew his childhood friend well. This killer from the Chirasor family would never give up unless Lucian was crushed to ashes.

This was a rare situation where Fanlan's pulling on the reins was of little use.

"Alan..."

Lucian whispered, kissing his exposed shoulder bone, her lips brushing against the tattoo of a snake with its tail in its mouth. Lucian felt that the tattoo might be injected with a large amount of nerve-paralyzing toxin, which made him dizzy.

Just as he was about to take a step further, the basement door exploded.

Fanlan only felt his body lighten. Lucian, who was leaning on his arms, had turned into a shadow and was smashed into the hard alloy wall.

The half-armored red-haired female insect was full of murderous intent. She grabbed Lucian's hair and pulled him out from the edge of the broken wall. She threw him to the ground like a garbage bag and stepped fiercely on his handsome but embarrassed face with her military boots with metal nails.

"Lu, xi, an, tu, sen."

He spoke each word with a stern tone.

It was as if the Grim Reaper was announcing his list.

When he walked out of the basement, Fanlan found that it was already evening and the setting sun in the sky was blood-red.

He never saw Lucian again.
