My NTR Harem

Chapter 189: Melina

Here's the corrected version with only word and spelling mistakes fixed:

Lucian gazed at his aunt Melina and cousin brother Leo; they were both standing beside the table where the food had already arrived.

Leo was older than Lucian by a few years; he had been sent out of the country since he caused quite a big trouble at his previous college.

But then, he was removed even from his second college and was sent back here. This was the consequence of them getting rich all of a sudden; they didn't know what to do with all that money.

Leo was tall and had a well-built body. He almost looked like a gangster, but right now, he had styled his hair normally and was wearing a suit. He smiled as he looked back at Lucian, as if he was very happy too, but it was obvious he didn't want to be here.

On the other hand, Melina was wearing an ordinary-looking dress, unlike her usual clothing. It was her way of showing Lucian that they weren't as well off as one might imagine.

She wore a long red sparkling dress that hugged all her curves perfectly; her mature body demanded attention.

Her long black hair looked smooth and beautiful, draped over her shoulder. Her bosom looked round and soft, pressing tightly under her dress.

She had applied dark brown lipstick, and as she smiled, she looked charmingly gorgeous. No wonder all the people were enamored by her beauty; her face and figure were just perfect.

She was in no way below Scarlett in terms of appearance. Scarlett had an air of arrogance and pride around her, while Melina, even in her slightly cheaper clothes, was like royalty, as if she looked down on everyone around her.

"Lucian!! Do you know how long I have been looking for you? I cherish you more than my own son…" Leo began to speak the lines he had learned, but the expressions of his parents reminded him that he was accidentally saying the wrong lines.

"Oh, haha, you are still a joker! When did you even get married?" Lucian laughed, turning Leo's blunder into a joke.

'A joker?' Leo felt angry. For him, Lucian was a person of lower status, so being called that by Lucian was infuriating; but the firm grip of his mother's hand stopped him from doing anything.

"Haha, Lucian, my lovely son, I missed you so much all this time. Come here and give your aunt a hug," Melina spoke, stretching her arms and waiting for Lucian to give her a hug.

All of this was a deliberate plan of the family of three to get close to Lucian, close enough that he would willingly give them all his money when they got in trouble.

Robert smiled. This was all going much better than he had expected. If it continued like this, then it would just be a matter of time before they snatched away all his saved money.

'Come and give your lovely aunt a hug, but this is only the start. You would have to give everything to me slowly,' Melina thought, a beautiful smile on her face.

She noticed Lucian's gaze lingering over their clothes for a few seconds with a confused expression, but then he looked back at her and smiled.

'He caught the bait. By now he must be wondering why we are dressed in such shabby clothes even though we should be rich enough. Yet we booked a room in such a nice hotel. He will understand how much we all care about him. Even though we don't have money to buy clothes, we are doing the best we can for him,' Robert thought, his eyes calculatingly observing Lucian.

'Sigh, how long do I have to pretend and play this crappy drama? I would rather have a wine in one hand and a girl in the other. We should just beat him up or just kill him; everything will be ours after that,' Leo thought, gazing at Lucian like a predator looking at its prey.

Lucian could clearly understand what all of them were thinking, yet he smiled warmly, feeling so happy to finally be united with his family.

Looking into Melina's black eyes, he walked in front of her, and without saying anything, he embraced her soft body, squeezing her tightly.

Lucian felt her soft breasts against his chest, her warm breath hitting his neck, and her smooth cheek rubbing against his ear. She smelled like fresh flowers.

"Aunty, I have missed you a lot too. I still remember how you cared for me when I was little. You didn't sleep many nights when I was sick and gave me everything I needed. On my list, you come before even my mother; you are the closest person to me," Lucian spoke in an emotional tone, without moving away from her, feeling her softness and warmth.

Melina indeed came first on Lucian's list of revenge and was closer than his own mother. The betrayals of those we trust the most hurt the most. Lucian barely knew anything about his mother, so even though she never cared for him and was never there for him, it didn't hurt him as much as when his uncles and aunts betrayed him.

He was too young at that time, and all of them acted as if he were a prince. They treated him so well that when they took all his money and threw him away, he felt like dying.

At that time, his two aunts were the closest to him. Lucian could still clearly remember all their sugar-coated words, but because of their greed, in the end, their families were destroyed. Explore hidden tales at m,v l'-NovelBin.net

It happened in Lucian's previous life, and this time, their outcome was going to be much worse. After destroying the two families, his next target would be his mother, who had abandoned him a long time ago.

"It's okay; now we are together. We are a family, and I will take care of you forever. I—I can't even imagine how you sob must have lived all this time sob alone and hungry. Oh, God, how can you be so cruel? Now you don't have to worry about anything; just entrust everything to me, and I will take care of your every need," Melina spoke while lovingly caressing his head, but in reality, she didn't care about him at all. Even hugging him was making her uncomfortable.

Robert and Leo just looked at the two of them hugging. They didn't see anything wrong with it, since for them, Lucian was still the same naïve and young boy.

And since he was the closest to Melina, they entrusted her to take care of him and get him wrapped in a web. It was Melina's duty to make him completely dependent on her.

Lucian remained in her tight embrace for a few more seconds before he finally stepped back and looked into her eyes; they were standing very close.

"I love you, aunt. I wish we could stay together forever," Lucian said, his voice filled with emotion.

"I love you the most, more than even Leo. Just tell me if you need anything," Melina replied with a smile. She hadn't noticed before, but now, looking at his face from so close, she noticed how devilishly handsome he had become; even she felt her heartbeat get faster.

"Let's eat. I have ordered all the dishes that you love. Don't worry about the cost and eat as much as you can," Robert spoke, pointing towards Lucian, smiling from ear to ear. This was going to be easier than he expected.

'Lucian still loves and cares so much about Melina? I wonder what this boy sees in her, haha, but it is good for me,' Robert gloated in joy.

They all walked towards the dining table and sat around it, with Melina sitting just beside Lucian. She kept gazing at him with a love-filled gaze, as if she didn't want to be apart from him for even a moment.

RING

Just then, Leo's mobile rang. After nodding at his father, he picked up the mobile and then began to talk. Soon, his voice took on a tired and depressing tone; he was giving his all to acting, but he was very bad at it.

"What's wrong, Leo?" Melina asked, though she didn't even look at her son.

"Actually, this was a call from my college. They told me that if I didn't submit my fees, I would be removed within a month. This is already my last year, and if that happens now, my life would be ruined," Leo spoke in a heavy tone.

"We—we will talk about that later; no need to bring that up right now. COUGH, let's start eating. Don't worry about anything, Lucian, and just focus on your food. Your aunt ordered all this costly food for you," Robert said, highlighting a couple of words.

Lucian looked at all their faces; he thought about something for a minute, then nodded. Soon, they began to eat. Melina kept placing all the dishes in front of Lucian.

She even fed him with her hands without eating anything herself. All her actions showed her love and care. She even accidentally brushed the dish against his lips, then, with a smile, wiped it off with her thumb.

Lucian ate most of the food, and only a little was left for the three of them. They were looking at the food as if they were seeing something this expensive in a long time.

*RING*

Leo's mobile rang again.
