The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 236 Make Me Yours
The beauty shifted closer to her boyfriend and turned her back to him. She moved her hair to the front, exposing her zipper. "Go ahead," she urged.Tyler let out a chuckle of relief. He silently grabbed the zipper and slid it right down to the bottom. Slowly and gracefully, Natalie removed the dress from her shoulders and slid out her arms. It slid down to her waist, revealing that she wore a white silk bra.Tyler gulped anxiously, his eyes on the girl's beautiful exposed back. His mystical energies fought against the arousal, as was his training. However, he commanded them to give it a break just this once.Natalie fiddled with the dress and pushed it over her hips. It slid down her thigh and dropped to the ground with a rustle.The young woman sported a white thong on her lower body. "If I had known we were going to do something intimate, I'd have worn something special on the inside," she murmured shyly.Tyler took off his shirt in a swift motion and approached his lover from behin
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 237 Coitus Interruptus
Tyler looked down at Lilith with his best poker face so as not to betray his genuine emotions. Was Tezcatlipoca, the Mayan goddess he called Kat, really on her way to his location?After the epic battle of El Abyssium, Tyler instructed Kat to bring Britta to the Salvatore estate. She did as she was told without protest.The young man expected her to stay behind for Butch Salvatore's funeral. He remembered how heartbroken she was after their divorce and wanted an amicable conversation about it.However, unexpectedly, Kat left the estate before Tyler arrived. She only left a word behind with Britta that she was going on a soul-searching journey. What was that supposed to mean?The young man hadn't heard of her until tonight. Where did she disappear to? What were her present intentions?"Are you sure about this, Lilith? How would Kat know where I am?"The demoness lowered her head a bit. "I'm afraid I don't have that information, My Lord. I detected your ex-wife's presence from a few mil
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 238 Sinful Women
The young woman was taken aback. Did Tyler abandon her so easily? She was so excited and horny about their union. Moreover, he left her with—"You're not Yara, but Lilith, aren't you?" she asked anxiously.Yara's mysterious revival had to be explained somehow, and Tyler decided to tell Natalie what really happened. Besides, Lilith was foul-mouthed and downright rude to everyone other than her master. It was better to share the truth with everyone. Answering questions about Yara's drastic change in personality was a more arduous task."Bingo!" the demoness mocked, laughing aloud. "Now, how shall we spend our time? I have an idea!"She grinned widely, making her sharp fangs appear. Her black eyeballs also manifested. "Let me explore that tight, skinny body of yours. Perhaps we can commit some sin before my master returns!"Natalie's eyes widened, and she swam away from the pool's bank. "Don't be ridiculous! Stay away from me!"Lilith's shovel-tipped tail whipped out and wagged behind h
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 239 The Pink Panther Returns
Tyler emerged from the water with clothes drenched and dripping. His well-defined muscles rippled under the wet fabric, that would ordinarily be a treat for any woman. However, there was no audience for this spectacle.Tyler had swum across the river to the other side of Emperor's Cove. He had landed at one of the other two luxurious estates in the Crest tier of Sterling Hill.Sterling Hill had three tiers of living spaces. The Foothills was the lowest, with standard apartments and houses. The Midlands had villas and mansions. The Andersons' estate was situated there.Finally, the Crest tier was the most premium and expensive level, with only three estates, one of which was owned by Tyler—Emperor's Cove.The second estate belonged to the royal Petra family, where he stood right now.Rustle! Rustle! Something rushed towards him at a frightening speed in the grass—a large wild animal, based on the tremors and growls. Tyler stood his ground because he knew what it was.Roar! A massive pi
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 240 A Woman’s Fragrance
Tyler nodded, and he laid out the details of why he had to break their divine marriage bond. It was for returning to El Abyssium in the past. Butch Salvatore and his contracted Mayan goddess aided the time travel."Ixchel helped you, huh?" Kat finally said, uncrossing her arms."Why? Is that a problem?""That bitch couldn't secure a marriage contract with your master, Butch Salvatore. She would've been really jealous that I created one with you."Tyler furrowed his brows. "I don't understand. What was the difference between Ixchel's contract with my master and ours?""You're silly, aren't you, Tyler Grant?" the goddess asked with hands on her hips. "Don't you remember that our contract was renegotiated before you saved me from the Red Marauders trap?""In fact, you added your own clauses to the new contract. Such intimate actions create divine bonds that are even greater than marriage. Even the primordials wouldn't dare break them.""Unless one of us breaks it…" Tyler concluded with a
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 241 Polygamy
The goddess stared back at Tyler, hatred, and betrayal swimming in her eyes. Or was it mixed with doubt and self-loathing? It was difficult for Tyler to tell, with sharp claws inside his chest and while drowning in his own blood.But clearly, Kat wasn’t enjoying killing the one she loved. As moments passed and she realized Tyler wasn’t resisting her attack, her expression turned to one of disbelief.Why wasn’t he defending himself? What was wrong with him? Didn’t he cheat on her? Aren’t Seraphim Kings all womanizers?Why would Tyler be any different? Why would such a powerful man allow his rejected divorcee to take his life?Something changed in Kat’s eyes, and her arm slackened. Tears rolled down her cheeks. The goddess pulled out her hand from the man’s chest.“Aaarghhh!” Tyler groaned as the sharp claws slipped out of his broken ribs and chest cavity.Kat stood on her toes and kissed him on the lips. “Please… Heal yourself… Please… I’m so sorry…”The young man smiled bitterly and l
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 242 Miss Anderson
A hundred negative thoughts filled Tyler's mind. Did Lilith disobey his orders and harm Natalie? No, that was unlikely. Was it an enemy abduction?The young man wouldn't usually get flustered over something like this. However, Natalie Anderson was his weakness.Tyler soared higher, looking for the duo in the estate. Not before long, he found them. His superhuman sight caught a vehicle speeding on the front lawn of Emperor's Cove. As he descended, the young man could recognize Yara and Natalie driving towards the main gate in a golf cart.Was Natalie furious with him for abandoning her? Yes, that was it! How shallow of him to leave her with Lilith in a strange hot spring in the middle of a forest!Tyler sighed. The mistake could be amended. Natalie wasn't a cruel person and was somewhat reasonable. All he had to do was apologize profusely and turn on his charm—an effortless task.Tyler landed a few paces ahead of the golf cart, making Yara hit the brakes."Nat…" he began, as his wings
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 243 The Crimson Captain
One of the three Crest estates of Sterling Hill was Monarch Hall. It was across the river from Tyler’s Emperor’s Cove.Monarch Hall differed from the other two estates in that it was built two centuries ago. It was an imposing structure designed like a fortress, with turrets, towers, and battlements reminiscent of medieval times.The royal family of Petra owned Monarch Hall. The late Lord Malcolm barely ever visited it. However, after the latter’s passing, his granddaughter, Michelle, vacated the Douglas Mansion and moved to Sterling Hill.It was believed that the Princess made this decision on the advice of her dying grandfather. Malcolm was on his deathbed when he summoned Michelle and warned her she was surrounded by enemies on all sides.“Stay close to Mr. Grant…” the old man said. “He rescued you once and will protect you in the future. He is the only man I trust.”Malcolm referred to the incident when a demon abducted Michelle the previous year. She was taken to the dungeons, wh

253 Invention
Half an hour later, Tyler and Derek reached the automobile showroom that the former owned. It was previously called Carlisle Motors but was renamed Maya Motors.Maya, a bright little girl, was its General Manager. She had vehemently opposed the showroom being renamed after her."Sir, it is your property!" the girl had protested. "I cannot have my name on the company title!""Well, you have no choice in the matter," Tyler had replied stubbornly. "You handle all the responsibilities anyway. Moreover, my privacy will be threatened if I use my name on the properties."Maya greeted the duo at the showroom's entrance. "Welcome, sir.""How's our secret project going?" Tyler asked.The female manager looked enthusiastic. "It is running fabulously, sir! We have already manufactured over five hundred units! Would you like a tour?""Most definitely. Actually, I brought Derek to see our operations, and unveil my plan."Maya escorted them to the showroom's VIP elevator. Once the doors closed, she
252 Forgiveness
When Tyler reached the Grant house on Maude Street, he found Derek Sentinel standing guard outside. On seeing him, the man rushed forward and knelt on one knee."Sir, I took Tracy out shopping and distracted her. She knows nothing about what happened earlier. Amelia is still your girlfriend, in her opinion. Now Tracy is resting."Tyler nodded and began to walk past the kneeling Indigo Captain. "Sir, please, may I have a word with you?" the latter begged."Go ahead.""I am very ashamed, sir, for failing you and Tracy! I am prepared to break up with her and go into exile for penance. Moreover, I will accept any other punishment you think I deserve. Death is also welcome."Tyler shook his head. "Enough of that. The danger has been averted. Stand."Derek rose to his feet, but his face still hung in shame. "Please forgive me, sir, and punish me for my tardiness."His young master waved a dismissive hand. "There is nothing to forgive, Derek. A sly woman tricked you, and I know Tracy is stub
251 Adultery
"What are you doing?" Tyler demanded, preparing for a fight. He detected no bloodlust, but the confrontation was unexpected.The beauty glanced at his face up close. "I'm doing what I came here to do, Tyler Grant. To take what is owed to me. Have you forgotten our promise?""What are you talking about? Our promise? I've never met you before!"Amelia disregarded his shock. Her hand moved to his face, and her soft fingers touched his rugged cheek. Something in Tyler allowed it. What was wrong with him suddenly? Why were his defenses down?"Listen, lady. I don't have the time—"Then, abruptly, the memory flooded into his mind. A blast from the past. He was probably younger than ten years.It was Christmas, and the boy wanted to purchase food from Mama's Bakery. Because of his disheveled appearance and lack of money, the obese guard turned him away with humiliation.Tyler was about to leave when a little ran outside the bakery, calling to him. She offered him a chocolate pastry.The boy d
250 Amelia
On hearing the lovesick words, Tracy's cheeks immediately turned red in embarrassment. "Oh… I'm so sorry…"Naturally, lovers separated by distance and time were forced to sacrifice their sexual urges. They would look for a chance to jump each other's bones during a reunion. Tracy was old enough to know that."Stupid, stupid me!" she blurted, evidently flustered. "You lovebirds need private time!" Before leaving, Tracy whispered to her brother, "Good choice, bro. You knocked it out of the park. Amelia is a keeper. Don't let her escape."Tyler pursed his lips. "Don't worry. I won't let her escape so easily," was the rather morbid reply.Once Tracy exited the bakery, Tyler sat across the table and gave the stranger a piercing gaze."Who are you?" he asked bluntly. "What do you want from me?""And what was that lover's farce about? I don't know any Amelia! I've never heard or seen you before."In response, the exotic beauty stood to her full height gracefully. She was in a black, trendy
249 The Stranger
Tyler met Derek Sentinel at the junction of Bakery Alley in West Sapphire. As soon as the young man saw her sister's boyfriend, he grabbed him by the neck and slammed him into an electric pole."You swore to protect my sister! Why did you leave her alone?! Where were you when she was taken?"The wind was knocked out of Derek. He took the punishment without complaints and instead lowered his face in shame.Earlier, the Indigo Captain had received a call from Tyler demanding he come to Bakery Alley immediately. Apparently, Tracy's life was in danger, and it was because of his stupidity."Did the cat get your tongue?!""Sir…" Derek groaned. "I was with Tracy when the stranger arrived and invited her to this location. Your sister insisted it was a private meeting between women; therefore, men weren't allowed. She wouldn't listen to me at all!""You know how stubborn your sister is. Moreover, the stranger claimed she was your close acquaintance. My hands were tied."Tyler let the man go bu
248 The New World Order
The conference room echoed with tunes. The perplexed dignitaries whipped out their devices and began answering the calls and reading the messages."What?! The child trafficking group was wiped out?""I don't believe this! The bombs were found, and the terrorists surrendered?""The hijacked plane was returned?""The workers in the collapsed mine were rescued?" "The hostages are back home?""The humanitarian supplies were recovered?"Apparently, all the problems the elite members had stated had already been solved! They looked at each other in utter disbelief, trying to understand what was going on.It was time for Yara to speak up. "Respected dignitaries! Let me illuminate you about what happened! Lord Tristan fixed your problems while you were on your way from your nations! This is how capable he is.""What? Impossible!""That's inconceivable!""Is Lord Tristan really that powerful?""His scale of operations is even grander than Lord Butch!"The grateful members turned towards Tyler
247 The Elite Conference
The dignitaries in the conference room came from all over the world—Europe, China, Russia, India, Japan, and so on. They were CEOs of multinationals, government officials, and even from international agencies.As soon as Yara announced Tyler's new alias—Tristan Salvatore, the room became flooded with gossip and whispers. The members exchanged surprised glances and even voiced their confusion."Miss Mathews!" the representative from China began. "With due respect. We accepted your invitation because we were promised an audience with Lord Butch Salvatore. We've met him before, and he is a much older man."The others nodded in agreement. "We do not recognize Lord Tristan, regardless of him being related to the man we seek.""Moreover, we usually meet in the Salvatore Estate. Why are we at Emperor's Cove in Sapphire City?"Yara offered the group a professional smile and stepped forward. "I regret to inform you that the Lord Salvatore you knew passed away a few months back. His unfortunate
246 The New Lord
Tyler pursed his lips, feeling guilty all over. "But I will help you find the perfect bridegroom!" he added quickly. "My job is to protect you, and I won't let any random guy become your husband!"Michelle raised her streaming eyes slowly. She was still weeping, but a bitter smile appeared on her face. "Thanks! I'm grateful! Please don't leave my side, ever!"Tyler wiped a tear off her cheek affectionately. He pulled out a handkerchief and raised her chin. "I won't. Now, stop crying like a baby. You are the future Queen of Petra! Don't let others see your weaknesses!"Michelle took the hanky and kissed it lovingly. "May I keep it?"The young man chuckled and turned to leave. "Of course. Now go and inform the High Council that you are ready for the royal banquet. As the Princess of Petra, you have a reputation to uphold. I will see you next during that event."Michelle nodded obediently and watched the man walk away. Tyler approached the terrace railing, leaped over it, and disappeared
245 The Proposal
Tyler was utterly tongue-tied for a few moments. What did the Douglas heiress just say? She wanted to marry him?The young man knew Michelle for a short time. But he always saw her as a little girl. Tyler's sole inclination was to protect her. That would also align with the late Prince of Petra's wishes.However, the Princess' proposal to marry him and become the King of Petra was astounding. He had no idea she thought about him that way."Michelle…" Tyler began. "Is this a prank?"The girl joined her hands against her heart and stepped closer to him. "I love you, Tyler Grant! Please become my husband and my King. I will make you very happy!"The young man chuckled nervously. "This is ridiculous! You cannot be serious!"The Princess peered into his eyes with passion. "I have never been more serious in my life."Tyler sighed and shook his head. "I'm sorry, I cannot accept that proposal. I have never seen you that way."Michelle's smile faltered, and she bit her lip, visibly hurt. "Is i
