Release That Succubus

Chapter 223 223 Don’t Worry



Luke was now a general of the army and this position had nothing to do with his identity as the prince of the royal family because he had long since left that identity behind. He had trained himself up from a simple soldier to his current station. Therefore, the training of the next generation soldiers was something he took very seriously.

Clara and Violet obviously knew where Luke would be at this time of the day. They had spent most of their childhood together after all. They exited the Windsor family mansion and made a beeline towards the suburbs under the weird gazes of the servants who looked like they had many questions in their minds.

As soon as they entered the training area, their eyes fixated on the young man correcting the posture of a soldier who looked older than him. It was none other than Luke.

Luke was alerted to their presence as if he could sense them coming from a mile away. His eyes twinkled in surprise since he hadn’t expected the two of them to march in on him like that especially when Clara had already found the object of all her attention. He had seen how she had looked at Zach that day and knew that his presence in her life had diminished by a huge margin.

Still, he could not help but be reminded of their childhood when they played together. He patted the soldier on his back and came forward to greet them while dusting his hands as if he was just finished with his work.

Once the two girls were close enough to him, he could tell that there was something wrong with them. They looked like they were about to cry and obvious worry crowded their faces.

Luke grew concerned watching them in such a state. Clara especially looked unlike herself. There were obvious tear streaks on her face as if she had been crying only recently.

“What happened? Why are you here in such a condition?” asked Luke as he looked Clara from top to bottom with an eyebrow raised high. Obviously her condition was way worse than Violet and Luke’s eyes wandered towards her instantly.

Clara was about to speak but Violet interrupted her to save time. Clara was clearly in shock and would undoubtedly waste precious time explaining. Therefore, Violet took over the reins of the conversation and explained everything that had happened with their father to Luke.

At first Luke was only concerned but as he listened to Violet, his expression distorted with anxiousness. It had to be known that the old Windsor family head had been a great help to the young Prince Luke when he first came to Byzantium city to become a soldier. With no help from the royal family, Luke had managed to survive because the name of the Windsor family had shielded him every step of the way. He felt ingratiated to the old family head and was willing to help the two girls in any way he could.

“The police captain who took away my father is Hogan Hunter’s man. I am worried that the arrest might be an excuse to do something worse. The Hunter family has been on edge recently. I can’t shake off the bad feeling I have been having in my gut. Please help us make sure that our father is alright.”

Luke felt a bit weird to see Violet begging him for help. In all the time he had known her, she had always been a cool and composed elder sister who was always unfazed in the face of troubles despite the heavy burden she had on her shoulders.

Luke shook his head from side to side and widened his eyes to look at Violet who seemed to be a different version of herself; a version he had never met before.

“Don’t worry I will go to the police station at once. Since the police came to take him so openly in front of the public, there is no way that they would dare to do something drastic to him. Even the Hunter family would not have so much sway with the law.” Luke did the only thing for the poor girls that he could do; he comforted them as much as he could with his words. At the same time he vowed to do whatever he could to return the smiles on their faces. bn𝚘v𝚕.𝚘𝚛𝚐

Luke hurriedly rushed off towards the other end of the training room and untied the reins of his black stallion. It was a beautiful animal with powerful hind legs and extremely lush mane. The stalwart animal wasn’t laden with heavy armor as it usually was during training but a simple saddle sat atop its back.

Luke ran as he pulled on the horse and pushed himself on to the saddle with a jump. He didn’t stop to discuss anything with Clara or Violet and galloped off on his horse in the direction of the center of the city where the police station was located.

Both Clara and Violet looked extremely thankful as they watched him leave in such a hurry on their behalf. They could not help but feel touched.

Luke rode through the city and approached the entrance of the police station where two cops were standing guard. As they watched Luke getting closer to the police station, the two cops reached out their hands towards the hilt of the sword on their waists as if alerted by the increasing momentum of the horse striding in their direction.

Luke didn’t barge into the police station on horseback because he didn’t want his precious warhorse to get hurt in the process. He got off the horse when he reached the entrance and tied its reins to a nearby wooden pillar before rushing towards the police station.

What he didn’t expect was that he was stopped at the entrance by a bunch of cops who came trickling out of nowhere as if they had been lying in wait for someone to come.
