Extra: Yandere Milfs Obsessed with me!-Chapter 270: The Enraged Predator

Makira immediately straightened up on the sofa, her golden eyes widening.

"Now that your father has died of illness... it’s not certain that your brother Frederick won’t take the opportunity to kill you. You know him, he has always hated you."

Alicia remained calm, but her fingers tightened slightly on her dress.

"I have to try to convince him to leave us alone. Me and my family. I cannot live forever in fear that he will act against us."

Makira clenched her teeth, her jaw muscles bulging under the skin.

"Why did you even get involved with that bastard Addams in the first place? You deserved better than a second-rate count."

Alicia lowered her eyes slightly toward her hands, then answered calmly, in a composed voice:

"There are two great grimoires in this world. You know that."

Makira said nothing, attentive, crossing her muscular arms.

"The Key of Solomon, The Spectrum has wanted it since time immemorial. They say it opens the door to the abyss so that demons can invade the world and rule over humans."

She took a deep breath.

"But there is also the Key of Saint Peter. A legendary grimoire capable of opening the gates of Paradise, summoning celestial beings, and the Holy Cathedral has wanted it at all costs for centuries as well."

Makira frowned, puzzled.

"And what does that have to do with Addams?"

"My father discovered that this grimoire was in the possession of the Paragon family, hidden for generations. He sent me on a mission to seduce Addams and steal it from him. That was my role, to infiltrate this house."

A heavy silence settled in the room.

"How could the Key of Saint Peter have even ended up here?"

"That... I have no idea..."

Makira stared at her for a long time...

"But over the years, living here, really seeing him... against all odds... I fell in love with him."

Alicia continued, her voice growing more bitter:

"My father only wanted that grimoire to gain influence with the Holy Cathedral, to get closer to religious power. But when I finally refused to betray him, he simply excluded me from the family and erased me from the family tree."

She turned her gaze toward the window, watching the clouds in the sky.

"But at his death... I don’t know what my brother is going to do. He has been very close to unsavory people these past few years. I sincerely hope it’s not The Spectrum."

Makira crossed her arms more tightly.

"Frederick is no fool. He’s a manipulator, but he’s intelligent. One misstep and he could be accused of heresy by the Holy Cathedral. He wouldn’t take that risk openly."

Alicia nodded, not entirely convinced.

"I’m going to visit Frederick, talk to him face to face. I don’t want him to keep threatening us, preparing things in the shadows... Please Keth, if I don’t come back, make sure the boys grow up well, that they are raised properly... I know I can’t count too much on Addams for that. He’s too absorbed in managing his business..."

Makira let out a long sigh, running a hand through her short hair.

"The best thing would be for you to leave him and go far away with the boys, to a place where no one would find you. But I suppose you won’t do it, you’re far too stubborn... And I’m coming with you to the Draken estate."

Alicia shook her head firmly.

"It’s a family matter, Keth. Besides, I’m stronger than Frederick. If he dares threaten me, I’ll just discipline my little brother like I used to when we were children."

She gave a confident, almost carefree smile.

Makira did not reply, but her eyes remained dark.

She knew something had changed in Frederick for years; after all, he was an ally of her cousin Aidan.

What Alicia had not anticipated, too confident in her childhood memories, was that Frederick was no longer the impulsive little brother she used to dominate in fights.

He had become a cold, calculating strategist.

A drug baron surrounded by dangerous allies...

Alicia left that day, kissing her children one last time without knowing it was truly the last.

She never came back.

Ruby kept her promise and raised Kaiser like a mother, giving him all the love... and the milk she could.

Makira took the identity of Kethra, slightly changed her appearance, and remained in the shadows of the county, watching the Paragons to prevent the Drakens from acting openly against them.

But years later, Frederick managed to defeat her and imprisoned her in one of the most dangerous areas of the Tenebris continent.

From that moment on, nothing really stood in the way of the Drakens’ and their allies’ maneuvers anymore.

And while the noble families focused on their power games and internal quarrels, The Spectrum was able to begin actively searching for the Key of Solomon without interference.

The story had already been sealed long before Kaiser understood who his real enemies were and where he came from.

...

Pov: Kaiser

I was on my knees in the still-warm blood of my father, my knees soaked by the puddle slowly spreading around me without me paying attention.

I could barely hear the screams around me anymore. My mind was saturated with information, flashing by too fast. The revelations of the last few hours had cracked everything I thought was solid in my existence, everything I believed I could count on.

Besides, without my [Level-headed] skill, I would really have been fucked... I just want to not lose control. Keep a cool head... now that I know my enemies, I can plan my moves better.

"I’m... so tired. I wish I could take a break."

Addams stared straight into my eyes, as if he wanted to engrave his last words directly into my soul.

"Frederick killed your mother, he most likely caused Isaak’s death, he sent dogs to assassinate me today, son you are next on his list... These are your father’s last words, as Kaiser Draken Paragon, you must kill your uncle! Avenge us!"

I clenched my teeth. His mind was at its limit, emotions were flooding in, and seeing the photo of that woman who looked like his mother from his previous life, he wanted, from the deepest part of himself, to take revenge.

And now that I know my true enemies, I..

*Splash!!*

Something hot and wet splashed across my face.

I blinked, blinded for a moment.

"Huh?! What the..."

My eyes trembled as an arrow had just exploded my father’s skull before I could do anything.

"I didn’t even see the shot coming!!! Who?"

This scene... I had already lived it...

Ruby, the only mother I ever knew in this world, her lifeless body.

Except this time... I was exhausted to the bone.

Mentally drained, washed out by years of preparation.

All those schemes. All those meticulous calculations. The alliances I wove. The lies I told. The plans for The Predator, to build the Black Neon organization. The simulations in my head, repeated hundreds of times. The scenarios I anticipated, the outcomes I prepared.

And it was never enough.

None of it was ever enough.

My mother was murdered by her own brother.

My brother Isaak died because of that bastard Kris.

Ruby died before my eyes...

And now my father, Count Addams Paragon, has just died in front of my eyes, his brains splattered across my face.

I remain on my knees, motionless, staring at his body.

"I had two lives..."

"Two fucking lives!!! But I still lost everything, twice in a row... There’s nothing left for me..."

Nothing left.

No one left.

I slowly turn my head toward the direction of the shot...

In the original novel, she was not a weak antagonist... But she had no direct connection to The Spectrum.

So why is she with them today?

"It’s fucking my fault..."

Because I kept postponing my revenge again and again, using caution as an excuse. Because I wanted to strike at the perfect moment, with absolute certainty that it wouldn’t cause problems for my other plans.

"I know the future of this world, but I’m still incapable of succeeding..."

And meanwhile, while I was planning and thinking...

My father paid the price for my incompetence.

My breathing becomes irregular...

"I..."

"I’m fucking pathetic... But..."

"I will take my revenge!"

At that precise moment...

I had become the enraged predator
