Rise of The Fallen Son-in-law Vol. 2 Chapter 85
As Nicklaus approached Dorian, he could sense the tension in the air. Dorian's brow was furrowed and his body language was stiff. Something was on his mind, and Nicklaus knew it was best to tread lightly."Dorian, I need to talk to you about Lucille," Nicklaus said, choosing his words carefully.Dorian's gaze shifted from the floor to Nicklaus, his eyes filled with worry. Lucille was his future sister-in-law, and they were close. Nicklaus knew that any news about her would be met with concern from Dorian.In castle of their friend, Leo. It was a beautiful castle with soaring towers and lush gardens. It was a peaceful place, a refuge from the troubles of the world. And yet, despite the serenity of the setting, Dorian and Nicklaus are troubled by the uncertainty of Lucille's loyalties. Dorian turned to Nicklaus and said, "We need to know where Lucille's loyalties lie. I can't bear the thought of her harming Nancy. But we have to be careful."Lucille sat on the grass, her legs tucked be

"I'm sorry," he said, meeting her gaze. "I really am. I know I was wrong, and I want to make things right."She looked at him, her expression un. Readable. "It's not that simple," she said finally. "You can't just apologize and expect everything to be fixed. It takes time to rebuild trust."Dorian nodded, feeling a sense of both disappointment and determination. "I know," he said. "But I'm willing to put in the work. I want to show you that I'm different now. I want to earn your trust again."Juniper looked at him thoughtfully, and then she smiled. "Alright," she said. "I'm willing to give you a chance. But don't expect it to be easy.""Do you have any ideas?" she asked him, gesturing to the landscape. "I'm trying to create a space that's both beautiful and functional. I want to create a habitat that's welcoming for the local wildlife."Dorian looked around, his mind racing. "How about this?" he suggested. "We could add some native plants that would attract pollinators like bees and bu

"You've been taking advantage of me!" Dorian said, his voice rising in anger. "You've been using me for your own gain!"Juniper's eyes flashed with indignation. "Don't blame me for your own weakness," she shot back. "If you allowed yourself to be taken advantage of, that's on you."Dorian felt the sting of her words, and his anger rose. "I can't believe you're saying that! You should be ashamed of yourself!"With a snarl, Dorian slashed at the plants with the water, destroying the neatly organized rows of tomatoes. The fruit rolled across the ground, bruised and broken."Stop it!" Juniper cried, her voice breaking. "What are you doing? Those plants took so much work to grow!"Dorian turned to face her, his expression fierce. "You care more about these plants than you do about anyone else!" he shouted. "You only care about yourself and your own interests!""You've been too busy with your plants to care about anyone else," Dorian said, his voice bitter. "You've been ignoring the people i

What choice do I have?" Juniper's voice was barely a whisper. "If I break the engagement, I'll be breaking the alliance. It could lead to a war. And what about Nancy? She's innocent in all of this."Lucille didn't know what to say.Juniper's numbness and fear were evident in her pale face and trembling hands. She forced a smile for Leo, but her heart wasn't in it. She was terrified of what Dorian might do if she broke the engagement, and she was worried about the impact on her friendship with Markus. But most of all, she was worried about Nancy, the little girl who had come to see her as a big sister."What's going on?" Leo asked, his brow furrowed with concern. "You're acting like the world is ending."Juniper bit her lip, not sure what to say."It's complicated," Juniper finally said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I... I can't talk about it right now."Leo nodded, even though he was dying to know what was going on. He knew Juniper well enough to know when she wasn't ready to ta

Meanwhile, Nancy sat on a nearby rock, oblivious to the tension in the air. She was playing with a small flower, completely unaware of the drama unfolding around her.Markus tried to act calm, but he couldn't shake the feeling of unease. He looked at Nancy and tried to put on a brave face for her sake."Don't worry about Dorian," he said, trying to sound reassuring. "He's just having a bad day."But Nancy wasn't convinced. "I know he's moody, but it's not just because of today. He's been moody for a while now. I think something's wrong."Her words sent a chill down Markus's spine. He knew she was right, but he didn't want to admit it.Markus knew that Dorian was unpredictable, and that he could be a danger to the team. He knew he couldn't control Dorian's actions, but he hoped that Nancy would be safe no matter what. He couldn't bear the thought of anything happening to her.As for Nancy, Markus wondered if it would be better to keep her away from Dorian, but he knew that would only m

Edgar's expression softened, and he spoke in a low, calm voice. "Dorian."But Dorian's response was cold and resolute. "I'm not your son. You gave up that right a long time ago."Edgar's eyes met Dorian's, and for a moment, they were locked in a silent battle of wills. Dorian was determined to stand his ground, and to make Edgar understand the gravity of his actions. But Edgar's expression remained unchanged."I know I made mistakes, Dorian. But I want to make things right. I want to be part of your life, and Nancy's life. Please give me a chance."Dorian shook his head, his anger still simmering just below the surface. "You don't get to decide that. Nancy gets to decide whether or not she wants you in her life."Edgar took a step towards Dorian, his eyes pleading. "But I'm her father. I have a right to be in her life."Dorian's voice was firm and unyielding. "You gave up that right when you abandoned us. You can't just come back and expect everything to be fine."Dorian's anger burned

As the sun sank below the horizon, Dorian carried Nancy on his shoulders, her arms wrapped around his neck. The two of them laughed as they raced along the beach, leaving footprints in the sand. The waves lapped at their feet, and the salt air filled their lungs. It was a moment of pure joy, one that they would both remember for years to come.Dorian set Nancy down gently and she reached up to touch his cheek. "I'm so proud of you, Dorian," she said, her eyes shining with affection. "You did what was right, even when it was hard."Mona observed Dorian and Nancy playing, and noticed Nicklaus looking at them. She understood that they were both in a difficult situation, having to choose between their families and what they believed was right. Nicklaus's expression betrayed his feelings on the matter, and Mona knew that he would support them, no matter what. Mona playfully punched Nicklaus on the arm, breaking the tension and reminding them all that they were in this together.Nancy was li

Dorian's lack of reaction was more unsettling than if he had become angry or sad. His neutral expression left Nancy feeling anxious and unsure. She was afraid that he might be angry with her, but she couldn't tell for sure.As she huddled behind Mrs. Blackwood, she heard the sound of laughter and music from the ballroom. It was a stark contrast to the quiet and tense atmosphere where she stood. She wished she could go back to playing and dancing, but she knew that was impossible now.Dorian's expression softened, and he turned to Nancy. "I'm sorry if I upset you, that was not my intention," he said. "I was just... surprised by your appearance."Nancy looked up at him, tears still in her eyes. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable," she said. "I just wanted to look nice."Nicklaus stepped in. "You look lovely, my dear," he said. "It's just a bit of a change from your usual attire."Mrs. Blackwood had enjoyed playing dress-up with Nancy, but she could see that Nancy needed

"Roman, you have to kill them for good this time." Nicklaus said."Not if we kill you first!" Kel roared.Roman's eyes flew around calculating. "I can't, it's against my code. I've spent my time watching people die_"Nicklaus pushed him out of the way before Kel stomped on him."Nicklaus, you saved my life, I thought you hated me." Roman said with a tone of slight there.Nicklaus didn't respond to his mockery and he held up a dagger."Remember, love, love." Laureline sprayed glowing blossom and rose petals in the air.The brothers averted their eyes. "Resist the temptation brother!" Grendel groaned.Kel's eyes watered and he gazed at Nicklaus with teary eyes. "Your life is worth more than all the gold and the accolades, Nicklaus, run wild and free, my friend."Nicklaus didn't know if Kel meant it or if he was under Laureline's compulsion.Suddenly he punched his brother Grendel."What are you doing?!" Grendel instead was driven by anger and he couldn't resist."Saving a damsel's life.

Roman shook his head, his face grim. "I don't know. But we have to find him, before he does something we'll all regret." And with that, they set off in search of Nicklaus, not knowing what they would find. As Laureline and Roman searched for Nicklaus, they realized that they would need help if they were to find him. So they turned to Biscuit, Roman's dragon companion. With Biscuit's help, they were able to track Nicklaus' trail, following the path of destruction he left in his wake. They flew high above the trees, searching for any sign of Nicklaus. And then, finally, they spotted him in the distance. The Titan brothers sat with Nicklaus tied to a stake and placed over a fire set up."You guys don't want to eat me? I haven't even showered."Grendel and Kel laughed at Nicklaus' feeble attempt at humor. "You're not funny, little man," Grendel sneered. "You're about to become a burnt offering to the gods." Nicklaus struggled against his bonds, but it was no use. He was completely at th

Valor fought with all his might, but Kel's grip was like a vice. The giant's fingers dug into Valor's feathers, holding him fast. Nicklaus watched in horror as Kel's hand closed around Valor's neck, ready to snap it like a twig. Nicklaus could hear Valor's cries of pain, could see the fear in his eyes. He had to do something, anything, to save his friend. But he was powerless, trapped in the trench. He could only watch as Kel prepared to end Valor's life. Nicklaus picked up. "Valor!"He lifted a boulder shaking and Kel looked at him and laughed hard."Look the so-called half-god can't even lift a rock."The brothers laughed and in their merriment Nicklaus saw a large figure coming hard and fast. Roman roared in his giant form and he shrunk but his momentum made all the difference. Kel fell flat on his face with a loud BOOM! and the terrain cratered leaving a cloud of dust.Grendel protected his eyes from the dust and he saw that the griffin had escaped from Kel's grasp! He beat his

"Father, I know what you're going to say," Nicklaus said, bracing himself for the lecture he knew was coming. "But Valor is more than just a protector. He's like a member of the family to me. I know he has an important job to do, but he's also my friend." Darius looked at his son with a mixture of exasperation and affection. "Nicklaus, I understand how you feel," he said, "but you must remember that Valor is not a human. He is a griffin, with his own needs and desires. You cannot expect him to be like a brother."Valor is not just some plaything for you to amuse yourself with," Darius said sternly. "He is a powerful creature with an important job to do. You need to take this seriously." Nicklaus looked down at his feet, feeling ashamed of himself. He knew that his father was right, but he also couldn't help feeling a deep connection with Valor. The griffin had become more than just a protector to him; it was like a true friend. "I'm sorry, Father," he said, his voice barely above a w

"Valor, I'm warning you!" Nicklaus said, growing more and more agitated. "If you don't move aside this instant, I'll..." His voice trailed off, unsure of how to finish the threat."Nicklaus, what's gotten into you?" Roman asked, a note of concern in his voice. "You know that Valor is just looking out for you. Why are you trying to force it to let you bond with the dragons?""Because I can!" Nicklaus snapped, frustration evident in his tone. "I don't need Valor's permission to do anything. I'm the one who chose to bond with it, not the other way around."Roman shook his head. "That's not how it works, Nicklaus. Valor is your companion, not just some pet you can order around."Roman looked over at Laureline, relief flooding through him at the sight of her. He'd been worried that things might escalate if Nicklaus kept pushing Valor. But now that she was here, he hoped she could help diffuse the situation."What's going on here?" Laureline asked, frowning at the tense scene before her. "W

Ugochukwu wanted answers about the confrontation between Nicklaus and Roman, but Roman was nonchalant, as if it were no big deal. Instead of dwelling on the drama, he shifted the focus to the truth, implying that Nicklaus was acting on false assumptions. Roman didn't need to justify himself, but he made it clear that he would take action when necessary. And Ugochukwu seemed to understand and respect that. They bonded over their mutual understanding of the situation. "You were right Roman, about the non-violence thing but I'm still going to fight when necessary."Ugochukwu acknowledged that Roman was right about avoiding violence whenever possible. But he also made it clear that he would not hesitate to fight if it was absolutely necessary. And Roman showed his understanding and respect for Ugochukwu's position. It was like they were two warriors, bonding over their shared code of honor. ... Ginger, sat on the bed, Pebbles perched on her head. It was a strange sight to behold, the sm

He watched as the Pegasus and its rider disappeared into the distance, and a feeling of hopelessness washed over him. But he couldn't give up on her, not now, not ever. He would find a way to make things right, no matter what it took.Leo felt torn. He knew that Fiona was his wife and the love of his life, but he also had a deep bond with Ginger. He didn't want to choose between them, but it seemed like he was being forced to. With a heavy heart, he headed back to the castle, Ginger following close behind him. He hoped that Fiona would come around, but he wasn't sure what the future held.As the imp continued to grow, Ginger's body began to sag under the weight. The cat let out a yowl of discomfort, and the imp jumped down from its perch, landing lightly on the ground. It stood there, looking up at the two of them with a sinister smile.As the imp spoke, his body began to stretch and expand, growing larger and larger with each passing second.

As Fiona lifted the cat, it let out a loud yowl and struggled in her arms. Undeterred, she carried it to the door, determined to find a new home for the animal. But just as she reached for the doorknob, a voice behind her stopped her in her tracks."Fiona." The voice said. She turned to see Leo standing in the doorway, looking concerned. The cat, sensing an opportunity, leapt from her arms and ran to Leo, winding itself around his ankle."Leo, I'm sorry, but this cat is causing nothing but trouble. Just look at what it's doing to the furniture, not to mention the way it's been hissing at me." Fiona said, trying to stay calm. "I just think we would all be better off if we found it a new home."Leo's eyes narrowed. "I can't believe you would even suggest such a thing. Ginger is a part of this family, and I won't just give him away like some piece of furniture."Fiona was taken aback by Leo's words. "I'm not trying to "...be heartless, but I just don't think it's safe to have this cat ar
