My NTR Harem

"Yes, that would be better for now. If I stay with Jasmine, I won't be able to do anything; she is too controlling and never even lets me leave the building.

From now on, I would have to go out several times if I need to get some treasures," Lucian thought.

He was also in favor of divorce since he was just too weak right now, and Jasmine is just too dangerous, and he wanted to stay as away from something like love as possible.

"No, he is already mine. What I do with him is my choice, and I won't give him back to you at any cost," Jasmine spoke, a possessive and unbending glint in her eyes.

It seemed she was ready to go to war if need be, but Natasha wasn't going to just let Jasmine get Lucian. She didn't want Lucian to be in any danger.

At that moment, the door opened, and a nurse walked in. She looked quite old, and there was a tired frown on her face after working for several hours.

"You should both stay quiet, let the patient have a proper rest," she spoke while squinting her eyes since she had bad vision and had forgotten to wear her glasses.

So, Natasha and Jasmine fell silent; they just sat there and didn't speak.

The nurse had brought some light food for Lucian. After placing it close to him, she left.

******

The three of them stayed in the room for the next several hours. Jasmine sat silent the entire time, while Natasha would make conversations with Lucian from time to time.

At around five, the test reports for Lucian came back, and fortunately, there weren't any hidden injuries, and he would soon be able to recover completely.

Though the doctors suggested for him to stay in the hospital for one more day to observe him carefully, since some problems might not occur immediately and show their effects after some time.

Although Jasmine didn't want to leave Lucian with Natasha, she had no other choice but to go back for now.

She also needed to take care of the Pendulum's threat, and if Lucian stayed close to Natasha, he would be perfectly safe.

"I'm leaving for now. You can stay with your mother for a couple of days, but I'll be bringing you back very soon," Jasmine spoke, her eyes narrowing.

Natasha was outside the room, talking to the doctor while she kept glancing inside through the small glass. She was asking about that strange disease that Lucian is suffering with.

"I don't see any problem in his tests, but if you want, we can rerun these tests and do a full-body checkup," the doctor replied as she looked at the reports.

"Yes, please, that would be better," Natasha said, while glancing into the room.

Jasmine was standing beside Lucian's bed while he was sitting and sat there without any expression.

After speaking some words, Jasmine suddenly bent forward, then placing her finger under his chin and raising his face. All of a sudden, Jasmine pressed her lips against his.

As Natasha saw this, all of her senses tingled and her eyes flashed dangerously. No longer caring about the doctor, she pushed open the door and entered the room, her aura about to explode.

Hearing the sound, Jasmine, who was holding both of Lucian's lips between her soft red lips, finally moved her face back.

Then she looked at Natasha and slowly licked her lips, as if tasting Lucian's taste.

"You—" Natasha almost started the fight inside the room but remembering that Lucian was also present there, she stopped herself and only looked angrily at Jasmine.

'Jasmine, she is changing, and her affection for me is increasing with each passing day, which will indirectly increase the danger to my life.

She is the main heroine, and fate won't allow such a development,' Lucian thought as his gaze moved from Jasmine to Natasha.

"...," without saying anything, Jasmine just walked out of the room.

She didn't know why she had that urge to kiss Lucian when she saw Natasha peeking inside, but after doing that, she felt really good.

"Lucian, are you okay?" Natasha walked beside him and carefully looked at his face. His lips still had a hint of the red lipstick, which brought a frown on Natasha's face, so she cleaned it immediately.

******

The day passed, and even on the next day, Lucian did nothing but rested, while Natasha stayed beside him.

Jasmine was not able to come because she had to take care of several things.

It was already night, Natasha had fallen asleep on the small bed beside the patient's bed. Lucian opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling through the darkness.

'It's impossible for me to leave Jasmine no matter what I try, but right now she is dangerous.

So I am going to change my approach towards her from now on. Instead of pushing her away, I should just pull her closer, and then slowly I can change her completely,'

Lucian thought, since fate was doing whatever, so he decided to use whatever was available to him.

'Anyway, that will wait, but for now I need to have a talk with Pendulum. I hope they don't decide to retaliate.

Zero, tell me the identity of some member in Pendulum through whom I can contact them,' he asked in his mind.

[Hmm, Clara Hill. She is a surgeon in one of the best hospitals, the Green Light Hospital. She has a high position in the Pendulum and is one of the strongest members, being at the 7th Phase of Evolution.

She is completely alone, and a long time ago, her parents died because of creatures from a Chasm, and then her younger brother was killed by a criminal organization, so she loathes criminal organizations.

Now, she spends her time either in the hospital or working for the Pendulum. That's the gist of her life.]

'I see, but isn't Pendulum a criminal organization too? They just murder anyone for money. Not that it matters; I will have to talk with her tomorrow,' Lucian decided.

If he could get some support from the Pendulum, then he would be able to move around more freely and have some influence.

'What is the protagonist doing right now?'

[You remember Dan? They met today, and they have already become good friends, so the protagonist will be able to build a relationship with his mother's company, which will provide him with resources he might need.]

'Good for him, he should enjoy his life to the fullest while it lasts,' thinking this, Lucian was about to close his eyes but then he remembered something.

'Oh right, what happened with Xerome? Did he die by the hands of those Xarus?' he asked.

[Unfortunately, no. He was already inside the hospital because of the injuries Max gave him when the Chasm had activated.

And the number of Xaru here was pretty low, so before they could kill him, they were killed by the nearby awakeners.]

'Tch, he is so unlucky. If he was killed by Xarus, his suffering might have ended already, but now he is only going to suffer more,' Lucian thought.

Even Max had survived the disaster. He was properly hidden under a bridge and was sleeping the entire time while those creatures roamed around.

******

In the morning of the next day, Lucian was finally ready to be discharged, though he would still need to rest for a few weeks to be completely fine.

"After several check-ups, we are sure that he is completely fine. Now, he can be discharged, or if you want, he can rest here," the doctor spoke, then she walked away.

"This is strange, Lucian definitely seemed sick before, but the reports are normal. But why would Amy lie to me?

She didn't have anything to gain from it. In any case, I will do everything to protect Luci. Even if that disease is a lie, I will still follow Amy's words," Natasha thought.

Lucian changed his clothes. He looked a lot healthier than before and didn't have any problem walking by himself.

"Let's leave." After walking out of the room, he spoke.

Soon, they were both sitting in a cab going back home, but they stopped midway since Lucian had to buy a couple of things like a laptop and other gadgets temporarily.

In around an hour, they arrived at their house. It was 10 in the morning, and the sun was rushing into the sky. It was hot, but soon the rainy season was about to replace the hotness.

"Sigh, I wonder why everything is changing so fast? So many Chasms appearing at the same time, it had never happened before," Natasha spoke as they entered the house.

They both sat down on the sofa and chatted about the situation for a while. Then Lucian spoke:

"Mommy, I haven't told you before, but I am currently working on a project. I am creating a game."

"Oh! When did you learn to code, though? Do you need any kind of help?" Natasha asked.

She felt proud of her son, even after going through such a life-and-death situation, he was still fine.

"I learned it online, and for now, I have no problems. I am going into my room, and I won't be out for a couple of hours," he said with a smile.

"Ok, I won't disturb you. While you are working, I will prepare some healthy dishes for you so that you can heal as fast as possible," Natasha spoke with a cheerful smile.
