Incubus' Blood Harem

Chapter 192 Deal with Coulter



Chapter 192 Deal with Coulter

The soft glow of a desk lamp illuminated a cluttered room filled with books, papers, and various artifacts from his father. Kayden sat there hunched over his desk, meticulously filling out the academic application form. His eyes squint as he read the fine print with intense concentration.

A half-empty glass of juice brought by Medusa was placed nearby, evidence of his growing frustration. Kayden grumbling to himself groaned in irritation. "These blasted forms... who cares about criminal charges anyway? Fuckers!"

He continued to fill in personal details, his pen scratching against the paper. Kayden's background as a mixed breed and his outbursts of energy had led to his fair share of legal entanglements, but he was not willing to let that stop him from pursuing knowledge.

Kayden reached the section titled "Criminal History." His brow furrows as he read the requirements. Kayden re-read while muttering under his breath. "Criminal history? Why do they need to know that for an academic position? Is this a trap from Coulter?"

With a sigh, he set his pen down and begins to reflect on his past exploits and incidents. Memories of narrow escapes from the law, the killings, encounters with other species and close calls with the law flooded his mind.

Kayden returned to the application form, his face etched with determination. He knew he had a colourful past, but his desire for knowledge and a chance at redemption outweighs his fears.

Kayden was resolute in his stance. He knew that to avenge his father's death and to find his mother he needed to get stronger. "I have faced danger, outwitted traps, and crossed paths with the shadiest of characters. But I have also learned from my mistakes."

He resumed writing the form, while remembering his past adventures and encounters with the law in painstaking detail. The pen glided across the paper as he filled in the details, now only the blank that was left was the criminal one.

Kayden muttered to himself. "If they can't accept who I was, they'll never appreciate who I've become."

With a final stroke of the pen, Kayden completed the section on criminal history. He stared at the form for a moment, reflecting on the path that led him to this point.

Kayden was determined to become on the top of the chain. "They will either see me for those mysterious crimes, or for the supreme mage I aspire to be."

He sealed the envelope with the application form inside and down the last sip of juice from his glass. Kayden was ready to embark on a new adventure—one in the world of vampire academia, where he hoped to leave behind his shadowy past and embrace a brighter future.

Kayden gazed at the sealed envelope, his mind still racing with thoughts of his criminal history. He contemplated visiting the local police station to address his past and ensure there are no lingering charges that could jeopardise his academic aspirations.

Kayden muddled to himself, uncertain about what to do. He did not want to seek help from Coulter for the matter. But also knew he had no other choice which was better. "Perhaps I should pay a visit to the police station to meet Coulter. It's time to settle my past once and for all."

As he reached for his envelope, a soft, haunting voice fills the room. The air seemed to grow colder as Medusa, called out to him with eyes that seem to hold secrets, materialized from the shadows.

Medusa questioned him while smirking. "Going somewhere, Kayden?" Kayden startled, his hand freezing mid-air. He turned to face Medusa, his expression a mix of surprise and suspicion.

He grew annoyed by her frequent habit of doing that act. "Medusa, how did you...? How many time have I told you not to-" Medusa spoke while interrupting him as she warned him. "I have my ways, darling. You were about to make a grave mistake now by going to Coulter."

Kayden narrowed his eyes, sensing that Medusa knew more than she was letting on. Kayden questioned her with a guarded tone, appearing curious and mildly worried. "What are you talking about?"

Medusa took a graceful step closer to Kayden, her eyes locking onto his with an intense, almost hypnotic gaze. Medusa spoke coyly tracing her finger over his chest. "You see, Kayden, Coulter has connections—connections that can help you erase your criminal past, or at least, make it disappear from the prying eyes of the academy."

Kayden's curiosity piques, but he remained cautious. Kayden became skeptical as to why she was telling him that. "Connections? Why are you telling me this though? And how do you even know this?"

Before Medusa could answer, a message notification chimed on Kayden's phone. He retrieved it from his pocket and read the message. His eyes widened as he took in the sender's name: Coulter. At such a right time?

Kayden was astonished to see his timing and knew right away that something was suspicious. "Coulter wants to meet with me?"

Medusa smiled while she hid their brief chat with Coulter because she wanted to see Kayden on the top of the pyramid. And the academy was the only way to attain power and sources.

"Ah, I see you've received the invitation. It seems Coulter is interested in a certain... arrangement." Kayden's mind raced as he considered the possibilities. An opportunity to clear his name and secure enrollment in the academy is too tempting to resist.

Kayden was still uncertain with that sudden offer after whatever had happened. "What kind of arrangement?" Medusa leaned in closer, her voice a sultry whisper. Her smirking made Kayden suspect her even more.

"A mutually beneficial one, my dear Kayden. But to find out more, you'll have to meet with Coulter in person." Kayden hesitated for a moment, torn between his desire for redemption and the mysterious offer on the table. Finally, he nodded in agreement.

Kayden was resolute. "Alright, Medusa. Set up the meeting with Coulter. I'll hear what he has to say." Medusa's smile widened, her eyes gleaming with intrigue. "Excellent choice, Kayden. Power awaits you, and perhaps, a few more adventures along the way."

As Medusa vanished into the shadows, Kayden's world is once again plunged into uncertainty, but he was ready for everything ahead if that granted him power.
