A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 956

Chapter 956 A Fate Worse Than Death

Confronted with Quito’s hollow eyes and incessant struggling, Enoch brought two fingers that were slightly aglow with a gilded light which he tapped swiftly against Quito’s temple.

The gilded light dissolved into Quito’s noggin, causing the fifth guardian’s body to desist from its state of agitation. The life had also returned to his previously unfocused eyes.

“Enoch… W-Why are you guys staring at me like that?” asked Quito, somewhat perturbed by the anxious looks on the faces of his peers.

“You had fallen for someone’s Seduction Technique and did not even realize it. G*ddammit! Haven’t I told both of you so many times before not to give in to the temptation of lust when we are out on missions?” Enoch hollered at Quito in severity.

His words caused Quito and Catur to bow their own heads in shame. Of the five, these were the two most lecherous ones, and it was for that very reason that Quito fell for Lyanna’s Seduction Technique.

“Curse that conniving woman! I’m going to kill her!”

Wrought by shame and rage, Quito did not expect himself to fall prey to Lyanna’s deviousness.

Enoch reached out and held Quito back before he turned his attention toward Rayleigh and his group.

As that was happening, Rayleigh was busy leading Josephine and the others in patching up the white wolf, whose constitution had since become tremendously frail.

“Hang in there, Snowy, stay with us…”

Josephine’s face was awash with tears. An ethereal ball of reddish light that formed on the inside of her palms began to encapsulate the white wolf tightly inside.

When they saw the white wolf in that state, neither Lizbeth, Melanie, nor Lyanna was able to contain their own distress either.

Even Rayleigh’s eyes reddened, for they had all come to develop a tremendous fondness for the white wolf over the period of time they spent together.

“Give us Jared now, Rayleigh, and I may offer the lot of you another chance to live yet,” said Enoch frostily as he looked toward Rayleigh.

With eyes puffy, Rayleigh seethed between gritted teeth, “You can banish the thought! The only way you’d ever be able to step inside this mansion is over our dead bodies!”

In spite of having lost his powers, the murderous aura that radiated off Rayleigh remained nonetheless intimidating.

“Lyanna!”

Melanie got onto her knees and wiped at the streaks of blood hanging on the corner of Lyanna’s lips.

The sight of Lyanna coughing up blood set Lizbeth’s eyes afire. With a resounding roar, she charged headlong in the guardians’ direction.

Bang!

Lizbeth was to meet the same outcome, being sent hurtling back before she could get within range of her enemies.

With a fresh spurt of blood, Lizbeth bombed heavily onto the ground, creating a cavernous crater directly underneath her own body upon impact.

“Lizbeth!”

Rayleigh ran up to examine Lizbeth’s injuries.
